☁︎︎ Third POV

Y/n smacked Tanjiro's head down as both males were on their knees in shame. Tanjiro did nothing after Y/n had smacked him. He kept his head down in shame and apology.

"Now you've done it," Y/n whispered, making sure not to alert Senjuro, who was coming to their room now.

"I know..." Tanjiro whined.

"I feel like I have to keep all three of you on leashes," Y/n said referring to Inosuke and Zenitsu.

"I'm sorry..."

The door of the room opened and in came in Senjuro, holding a small tray of cups with the teapot too. He came in with an inviting yet nervous smile as he sat in front of the two older males.

"Here's both of your tea, please drink it," Senjuro stated and put two semi-filled tea cups down.

"Thank you very much Senjuro, this helps us a lot," Y/n stated, his scolding voice vanished as he was now talking to Senjuro.

"Aah... Thank you," Tanjiro said with a tired look on his face, "I am truly sorry for headbutting your father... Is he alright?"

Y/n sipped a bit on tea, 'Not like he didn't deserve it.'

"I think he'll be fine. When he woke up, he went out to buy some alcohol," Senjuro said.

Y/n glanced at Senjuro from the side of his eyes. He didn't like the fact that when Shinjuro was angry or pissed, his immediate reaction is to get alcohol. He also didn't like the fact that Senjuro looked happy about it too.

Senjuro the bowed suddenly, "Thank you both very much. No words can express my gratitude to the both of you."

"Hmm?" Y/n perked up as well as Tanjiro as they both looked at Senjuro in questioning.

"I fell relieved. Even though my brother was being bad-mouthed I couldn't do nor say anything. I wonder how my brother's final moments went..."

Tanjiro and Y/n glanced at each other, they both seemed to get the idea of what the other wanted to say. They both nodded to one another and turned to Senjuro. Senjuro looked up in surprised that the two went silent and suddenly looked at him.

"If you want to know, we can both tell you," Y/n offered in a soft voice.

Senjuro's eyes widened slightly, "Really?"

Tanjiro and Y/n both nodded with confidence and reassurance.

"O-Okay, please, do tell..."

☁︎︎ Small Time Skip ☁︎

"I-I see," Senjuro stuttered as he leaned into Y/n's arms, "Thank you, thank you so much..."

Tanjiro and Y/n told everything that Rengoku had done for them. Their bonding moments, their conversations, and what Rengoku said during his death and defeat. Senjuro had gotten emotional throughout the conversation so Y/n was next to him to give him support.

"It's alright, Senjuro, it's okay," Y/n said softly as he whipped the boy's tears away from his cheeks with his mother's haori.

"I'm sorry, Senjuro, I'm the one who wasn't any help," Tanjiro stated, "If anything, don't say thank you to me, please, say it to Y/n instead, he'd done so much more better than I could ever do in that situation."

Y/n let out a soft sigh, "You did just as much, Tanjiro-san. I don't need all the credit when you were the one who defeated the first demon in the first place."

Senjuro let out a small giggle, "Please don't worry about it. My Nii-san would've said something like that, right?"

Tanjiro looked up in slight shock at what Senjuro said. Y/n looked down at Senjuro with warm eyes, he would've smiled if he could.
