I slowly remove my hand from her wound, to see it is already closing just like she said. But her blood keeps on flowing out of the wound. I sure hope she will be fine. I won't be able to forgive myself if something happen to her.

Please be okay, Y/N-Sama...

-Recovery-

Y/N P.O.V

I slowly open my eyes to see the ceiling. I turn my head to the side, realizing this is the Hospital Ward of the Butterfly Estate. I let out a soft sigh as I close my eyes again. I've been getting in and out of the Hospital Ward quite a lot nowadays. But that's to be expected given the fact that my job is to slay demons.

I hear the door sliding open. I open my eyes, turning my head to see it's Rengoku. "Aren't you suppose to be in bed and rest, Rengoku-San?" I asked. He just smiles at what I said.

"These wound is nothing compared to yours, Y/N-Sama" he said. I move to sit up, which makes him visibly panicked. "P-Please... lay down! You might reopen that wound!" He said, frantically. I giggle softly. It's not everyday I got to see Rengoku acting panicky.

I lift my shirt just enough to reveal the bandage and slowly removed it. The hole on my stomach is gone. I turn to look at Rengoku, who just gazes at the spot where the wound should be.

"As you can see... I've healed" I said, smiling softly at him. I lower my shirt down to cover my stomach. I lean my back against the headboard. "So I'm in a much better shape than you are, Rengoku-San. But I still feel a little tired..." I said. He just hum at what I said, making me giggle softly.

"That means you still need to rest to recover better" he said. I just smile at what he said. He just stares at me. I tilt my head slightly, wondering what's on his mind. I flinched when he suddenly pulls me into a hug. "I was scared... I thought you were going to die. It should have been me to be in this position" he mumbled. My eyes soften at what he said. I gently place my hands on his back, rubbing it softly.

"I'm fine, Rengoku-San. But if you're the one in this situation... you're not going to make it" said. He pulls away to look at me. I smile softly and gently pat his head. "So don't feel like it's your fault. I'm the one who made this decision. This is all on me" I said, ruffling his hair.

"I'm gonna leave you to rest, Y/N-Sama..." he said. I just nod my head at what he said. He stands up and leans down, placing a soft kiss on my forehead. My eyes widen at his action. "Take care..." he said, smiling at me.

"You too... you need to rest too" I said. He smiled and nod his head. He turns around, walking towards the door. He turn to look at me before leaving. He smiles one last time, and finally walks out.

I let out a sigh and move to lay down. I'm so tired after this mission. I didn't expect we'd have to have two of the Twelve Kizuki back to back. I close my eyes as my mind drifted off to the dream Enmu showed me. The dream I had about Muzan, and how tender he acted towards me.

I let out a sigh and turn to lay on my side. I yawn softly as I start to feel sleepy. Why did I feel so sleepy? Must be because I was still exhausted. So I just let myself drift off to sleep.

Dream

"Y/N..." a voice said. I open my eyes to see I'm in the middle of a flower field. It's also night time. I hear the voice calling out my name again. I turn around to see Muzan. He walks over to me, lifting his hand to cup my cheek. He gently leans his forehead against mine.

His hand caress my s/c skin as his plum red eyes staring into mine. "I love you, Y/N. Please don't ever leave me. I can't live without you" he whispered in a soft voice. I just stare at him, without saying anything. He pulls me into a hug, burying his face into the crook of my neck. "Please tell me you love me too, Y/N. I may be a demon... but I can take care of you. I can give you the love you deserve. I promise" he said.

"Muzan..." I muttered in a hushed voice. He pulls away to look at me. He cups my cheeks tenderly. He treated me as if I'm made of porcelain. I notice his face gradually comes closer to mine.

End of Dream

I gasp awake as I move to sit up. I feel my heart starts to beat faster than it normally should. I close my eyes as I gently run my hand through my hair. I move my body, placing my feet on the floor. I walk towards the window as I stare outside at the sky. I watch as the cloud slowly move around.

Ever since Enmu gave me such dream. All I can think of is him. No matter how hard I try to dismiss the thought, to stop thinking about him. He just finds a way to come back into my thoughts. Which resulting in me constantly thinking about him.

I let out a sigh as I lean my side against the window while still staring out. Something I've been trying so hard to push down, to get rid of. All of my struggle to stop it from growing just seems futile, because in the end... I can't stop it.

I lift my hand, placing the palm of my hand on my chest where my heart is. I close my eyes as I focus on the beats of my heart. I feel it beating faster than it should. I let out a sigh as I slowly open my eyes to look out the window once again. It had grown too strong for me to ignore. The thrumming feeling of my heart against my chest is so loud as if it demands me to notice, and I can't deny this feelings any further. I can no longer deny that I've fallen in love with Kibutsuji Muzan.
