This isn't so bad
Third Person
In the middle of the dark and snowy night, up a mountain top, the Kamado residents home was lit up by the lanterns hanging in the front of the engawa and the inside, giving off a warm feeling, of a happy and contented home.
In the far left of the bedroom, there lied the (h/c) girl, in between the youngest Kamado's, covered in two layers of white blankets one which was being used by the (h/c) girl and the second was partially covering her right side, as it was being used by two youngests of the Kamado family, Rokuta and Hanako Kamado, sleeping soundly beside the foreign girl, to the left side of the foreign girl was the other two youngest of the Kamado family, sleeping soundly, was Shigeru and Takeo.
In the middle of the bedroom, was Tanjiro, writing down in a makeshift journal with a dimly lit candle, and beside him was the second eldest of the family, Nezuko Kamado, also writing on a piece of paper, seemingly to be a grocery list of what to stock up on as the winters were just going to be harsher for the next couple of weeks till spring.

Reader's POV
it's so nice and warm, feels so much more better than last time, maybe it stopped being windy? sigh . . . I should probably wake up now, considering that I might have really over slept again.
sitting up to stretch only to grimace and shudder as I felt and heard my joints pop, I rubbed my left left eye and peeked out of my right one,
" I must have slept until afternoon, but why is it so chilly?" whispering to myself , I looked up from the blanket to the middle of the room, only to see two people sitting in the middle of the room, confused of where I was again, I tried to stand up only to be stopped by something grabbing the left side of my shir- . . . yukata?
Looking down to the had that had grabbed the left side of my yukata sleeve was Takeo Kamado, confused at what was going on, like really confused,
Am I REALLY still dreaming?
I gently unfurled his hand from my yukata sleeve and got out of the covers, putting them over him and Shigeru, stopping to stare at them smiling softly, as they fought over the warm blanket only to settle as both of them cuddling together for warmth.
maybe this dream is to make me feel better? my minds unconsciously trying to comfort me from the hardships these cinnamon rolls go through . . . yeah maybe that's it.
"your finally awake miss! are you feeling alright? you have slept the entire day away after I had brought you back to the house after you little adventure"
shocked at the sound of a gentle and hushed voice, I quickly turned around and saw the warm eyes of Tanjiro and Nazuko Kamado, smiling at me, tilting my head I silently walked over to them and sat on across Nezuko.
you know when you dream you kind of think that they'd be speaking in English or that I'd somehow magically understand Japanese all of the sudden.
" you know since I really don't understand you both at all, I really wish this is a happy dream" I said looking at both of them, putting my hands on top of the table lightly tapping the top with my fingertips.
"ano, Nii-san I think she's does not understand us" Nezuko said to Tanjiro, lightly patting his shoulder as she giggled looking at him, having dot eyes
"how do you think we will talk to her then? guestures? maybe we can all help her learn by saying what it is but slowly?"
Giggling at Tanjiro and Nezukos chibi form talking to each other, my belly suddenly growled, making a shocked and embarrassed face, I patted my belly down to silence it
"That's right! you were asleep the whole day, we tried waking you up a few times but you were dead asleep, it's a miracle that you didn't get sick , walking in the cold without layers or shoes is bad, you know? anyways lets get you something to eat okay?" grabbing my hand, Nezuko gently pulled me up to my feet leading me to another room and letting me sit and settle under the kotatsu, sighing happily as the cloth of the kotatsu warmed my legs.
I really must be having a lucid dream if the temperatures be playing me like this, huh?
suddenly two hands putting down a bowl of hot soup and tea came into my vision, looking at the other side of the kotatsu I saw Nezuko giving Tanjiro a warm cup of tea a long with herself, sitting beside him.
"ano, how are we going to do this nii-san? she clearly can understand us, why don't we try getting to know her name?" picking up the ceramic tea cup with my yukatas sleeves, I looked at them as I kept blowing at the hot tea, I finally took a sip only to burn my tongue, flinching at the feeling I quickly and as gently as I could tried to put the cup down silently on the table top, as I hissed lightly,
I just burnt my tongue, I'm not supposed to feel that right? am I even dreaming?
Feeling a small chill go down my spine I looked back up to the ceramic tea cup and put my finger to the tea cup until it was was too hot and quickly pulled my finger away, only to see it was an angry red,
I'm definitely not dreaming, arn't I?
"my goodness miss! please don't do such reckless things! yes it was a miracle you didn't get sick but please dont hurt yourself" snapped out of my thought, I looked up to see Tanjiro wrapping my finger up with a piece of cloth.
" My name is Tanjiro Kamado! I haven't really had the chance to introduce my self properly but we do hope you can understand what we are trying to say here" Tanjiro said pointing to himself then to Nezuko as he spoke
"yes! my name is Nezuko Kamado, who might you be miss?" Nezuko said then pointing at me,
Oh I see, they must be introducing themselves to me, I really might not be dreaming huh? the stupid wish actually worked. . . oh god, this is really happening huh.
pointing to Tanjiro I repeated his name, then at Nezuko, the to myself,
" (f/n) (l/n)"
"uwa! its so nice to meet you (f/n)-san! we really hope that you can enjoy your stay here!" Nezuko said grasping my hands and lightly patting them giving me a bright smile, in my side view I saw Tanjiro nodding his head,
wait, shoot, don't Japanese names start from last name to first name when they introduce themselves? oopse. . .
sweat dropping I smiled and gently pulled back my hands as the two then continued to converse with themselves, staring at the still steaming bowl of soup, I then sighed, and proceeded to drink the soup,
I guess, I should find a way to prevent somethings to happen then huh?

Reader's POV
being the first one awake I really had nothing to do, already have made apple slices and warm vegetable soup left on the kotatsu for the family to eat when they wake, I had decided to sit in front of the engawa, eating some one of the apple slices I had cut awhile ago, looking at my cut index finger, pondering, how exactly is everything going to play out now since I was in the picture,
Am I going to change the events of the manga's events or continue everything, with just me being here? am I going to die here along with the family? should I venture out and find Urokodaki to train and be prepared to save the Kamado family? God is this really even going to wo-
"ah! there you are! I was worried that you had decided to leave again without extra covers, but I had smelt the food you had prepared for us, thank you (f/n)-san, this really would lessen the stress for oka-san" sitting beside me Tanjiro said, lightly startling me, I look at him and offer an untouched apple slice to him smiling, as he took it with a small "arigatou" as he ate, I looked forward and continued eating,
maybe just a little while, I'll help this happy family, they are real, they don't deserve this.
finishing the apple slices with Tanjiro, I stood up and offered him my hand smiling, when he took it, going back inside the warm house, he decided to wake everyone else up for breakfast, I went back to the kitchen setting up hot tea for everyone. determined I thought to myself, looking at my cut finger, feeling energized,
I'll do everything I can in my power to save these people.
