It All Started With A Dare

Chapter 6

Sanemi POV

The air around me was cold. The only thing lighting up the empty streets were the streetlights. I stood in front of Kimetsu Café waiting for my 'date'. Honestly I was scared and nervous. The sound of the door opening interrupted my thoughts. Turning my head to the source of the sound I saw Giyuu. He wasn't in his usual sexy waiter outfit but he was wearing a blue shirt that had 'うつ' (translation: Depression) on it. He also wore a pair of black ripped jeans. But something about his outfit enraged me.

"Oi! Do you not fel how cold it is?" I asked taking off my jacket and placing it around his shoulders. "How could you be so careless?" His body stiffened and his face flushed red. "T-thanks." He quietly before turning his head in the other direction. "Let's go I have a place set up." I said gently taking my hand in his. We ran a few blocks but it really didn't affect us because we could control our breathing.

A few more minutes of running I realized something. "Umm I think where lost." I said embarrassed. I then heard the most adorable giggle of my life. My ears were blessed. "It's okay." He said grabbing my hand let's head back to the cafe. While walking back I started to get curious about. "So what do you do?" I asked trying to brew up some type of conversation. "I study marine biology and train to become a demon slayer." He answered with a glow of determination in his eyes at the mention of 'demon slayer'.

"Well I believe you'll be a great demon slayer." I smiled at him. "Behind me of course." I smirked playfully. He then softly hit my shoulder. "Okay what breath do you use Mr.Confident?" He puffed his cheeks. "I just so happen to use the awesome Wind breathing." I smirked at my superiority. "Well I use the graceful art of Water breathing as a matter of fact most of my friends use water breathing or a version of it."

"Version?" I asked confused. "Yeah my friend Shinobu uses Insect breathing which branches from Water breathing. " He explained feeling proud but I can't let him have all the glory. "Oh yeah I know someone who has Mist breathing a version of Wind breathing." I had a smug look on my face taking all this breathing naming as a challenge. "Well I know someone who knows Beast breathing a version of Wind breathing." He stuck out his tongue at me. I was really starting to get feed up.

He broke out running away as of he sensed my annoyance. "Come back here!!" I chased his as he giggled like an idiot. Minutes after running I caught him and tickled him. "Say sorry." I tickled him more making him  burst out laughing/crying. "Okay okay I'm sorry." I momentarily stopped. "For making you look like a complete idiot." He laughed. "You'll pay for that." Before I could even react he was on top me tickling me.

"S-stop!!" I begged trying to hold in a laugh. We both rolled in the ground tickling each other. Minutes later both out of breath we called a truce. "T-thanks for tonight." Giyuu said catching his breath. "No you made it fun I just got us lost." I protested helping him off the ground. Let's warm up." He said unlocking the doors to the cafe. "Are you sure we're allowed to do this." I asked worried he might lose his job because of me. "Yep."

He switched on the light. "What do you want to drink?" He asked putting on his apron. "Vanilla smoothie." I request sitting near the window. "So plain." He groaned dragging himself to the kitchen. The sound of a blender rang through the cage signaling he was preparing the drinks. The warmth of the cafe crept upon my skin countering the freezing weather. Honestly I'd love to live here.

He came out with a mug and a cup filled with pink liquid. Placing the mug in front of me I frowned. "I asked for smoothie." I frowned deeper. "It's cold your not drinking smoothie until you finish.", He ordered giving me a stern glare. I brought the mug to my lips sipping the contents inside. The warm liquid filled my mouth and spread throughout the inside of my body. The flavor was perfect. In one swift move I chugged the drink.

"I swear you make the best drinks." I said whipping my mouth with my sleeve. 'Its gonna be a shame I have to let you go.' Once again guilt consumed my guts. "Thanks." He said. I then swiped his Strawberry smoothie taking a big sip. "Now it's confirmed you carry this cafe with your drink."

....

I feel so bad Giyuu's being used like this. It hurts writing this.
