Last time in I was reborn in demon slayer as an Uchiha.
"I don't want you guys to blame yourself over something you couldn't control or prevent," I said
"Plus the fact that you guys survived put a smile on my face knowing that I at least saved two people" I added
I had to spend roughly 30 minutes explaining to them why it wasn't their fault that I got hurt but they eventually stop blaming themselves for me being hurt,
Now we continue where we left off
Time skip to the onsen
I strip myself naked as I slowly get into the hot spring.
The hot spring waters gave off the smell of the sea or, more accurately, the smell of seawater evaporating.
I didn't really mind because as soon as I entered the water I felt refreshed like something heavy left my shoulder.it felt a lot less tense
For some reason, there was a random rubber duck already in there, I was kinda confused so I picked it up.
I smelled the familiar vanilla scent which was a sweet, rich, syrupy scent that exudes warmth in a uniquely alluring way.
There was another scent next to vanilla scent it smell like lavender, which was a delicate, sweet smell that is floral, herbal, and evergreen woodsy at the same time, that is the only way I could describe it.
I turn around to see Kanea and Shinobu entering the water behind me, when they enter they also looked relaxed the second, their body fully bath in the water. except for Shinobu who was a bit tense.
"This is refreshing," I said just enjoying my time inside the hot spring
"I'm surprised that you didn't get back to training the second you realize you could move again," Shinobu said with a bit of surprise tone.
"I'm not going to lie, I did think of that before I realized, I was spending too much time training in not enough time with you two," I said honestly
"There is a good sign to all this" Kanea said
"Which is," I said curiously
"Hot spring water can relieve tense muscles and the natural or serene surroundings of this onsen with the noise of nature all around us, it can help clear your mind. "She said
"That's good to known," I said feeling my tense muscle get relieved of all their burden,
I felt lighter way lighter than before, I felt like some shackles that were previously holding me back just break.
"You shouldn't stay in the hot spring for too long," Shinobu said
"What is the worst thing that could happen," I said curious
"you may risk overheating yourself. Your body temperature will become too high and you could even risk fainting, although it is very rare. There's also a chance you could feel dizzy and lightheaded."She replies
"I haven't spent that long in the hot spring 5 minutes maximum," I said but I noticed that she looked tense.
I disappear from my spot in appeared behind them in the blink of an eye.
"You seem tense Shinobu let me help you," I said as I apply chakra to my fingertips
"Just a bit" she replies
"Let me help with that"I said as I put my hand on her shoulder
Her shoulder went down a bit, she looked a lot less tense than before.
We stayed in the hot spring for a while enjoying each other Compagnie but eventually we got out of the hot spring.
It wasn't uncomfortable or awkward for me considering it's not my first seeing them naked but Shinobu on the other hand,
Let's not talk about it.
After getting out the water I felt that my body was quickly cooling down after leaving the hot spring
Which made me feel very sleepy, to the point that I wanted to sleep right after. (A/N this is one of the effects of taking a bath in a Hotspring)
I put my clothes back on after getting out of the onsen, I felt a bit thirsty but apart from that I was just fine. I didn't put my jacket on only my white shirt.
I went inside the room to rest, in to catch some sleep, somebody enter the room after me but I knew who it was until I felt something playing or messing around with my hair," You have such nice hair, it feels so smooth" I heard Kanea's voice said
"I try to keep them that way" I reply a bit sleepy
Shinobi sat down in front of me and considering that she was already starting to clean up her hair.
I decided to help her.
"Do you want your hair done long short or in a ponytail?" I said
"Surprise me" she replies
I proceeded to pull her hair back making a small bun to which I took her hairpin and stuck together basically making the same hairstyle she had when we saw her in canon.
She turned around and I show her hair using a mirror, that was lying around on the floor.
"It looks nice," She said with a smile on her face.
"No pro....."I try to say before getting interrupted by a sweet and floral taste that had a slightly bitter aftertaste. (A/N for whoever didn't get it this was kiss)
"What is it with you and Kanae interrupting my sentence with a kiss," I said a bit flustered
"Your reaction is just precious," Shinobu said with a smile on her face.
"I really need to teach you two to not poke a sleeping lion," I said remembering all the times that I got teased.
"What are you going to do about it," Kanae said
A smile just crept on my face, I stayed quiet.
"Atoru, I don't like that smile," Kanea said
