ćRENGOKU KYOJURO: ēć
for confessions kyojuro would least expect them. he doesnāt expect anyone to be so upfront with him, partly because he knows people shy away from his seemingly āaggressive natureā. heās not aggressive, he promises, heās just very enthusiastic. it scares off most of the younger/lower rank demon slayersāhe knows. but you seemed to become a different case for him. which he liked. he enjoyed you running up to him whenever you two would meet, eyes sparkling with pure joy, and face bright with a smile on it. it made his heart soar. every piece of him tingled with glee at the sight of you.
was this what a crush was?
so when you approached him during the annual firework festivalā¦kyojuro knew what to expect. you would definitely come to greet him, like always. he stood in front of the bonfire, loving the sound of the firewood crackling and the warmth of the flames. he hopes he could become like the flames some day. the sound of your geta running up to him slowed down and he was a bit confused. maybe he was mistaken. maybe you were running up to tomioka-san or the kamado child behind him. but what he heard next had him frozen as if he was in ice.
āi like you. i like you so very much, that i waited until today tell you. so please kami-sama, please let rengoku-san turn around and accept me.ā
what? could you run that by him again?
turning around slowly, the male laughed at you. you felt your heart bleed almost. he wasā¦laughing? did he think you were funny? were you joking in his mind? feeling embarrassment hang over your head, you wanted to disappear right at that moment. how could you be so foolish to confess to the other? but that wasnāt the case. kyojuro was laughing in shock, awkwardness, and awe. you liked him? you wanted him? you wanted him! the him that everyone seems to be cautious around emotionally, the him the makes people tremble from his enthusiasmā¦and the him that was utterly in love with you. his eyebrows furrowed soon after, noticing the way your mood had dropped. your head hung low, and as he stepped forward, you stepped back.
āfā¦forget what i said, hahaha!ā you raised your head and laughed, eyes filled to the brim with tears as you tried to make it all seem like a joke.
kyojuroās heart snapped in half.
āthe other demon slayers were going around saying this rumor! like if you s-stood in the person you likeās shadow and confessed them theyād turn around andā¦andā¦ā you lost your train of thought as kyojuro came close to you, holding your cheek gently as you spoke to him.
āand?ā¦go on (y/n).ā his voice echoed in your mind and you looked away from his eyes, feeling suddenly flustered.
āand they would then accept your feelingsā¦ā your voice was tiny, but kyojuro smiled softly.
āiāve turned around, is that too short of an answer for you?ā the flame hashira teased, and you could only stare at him.
pressing his warm lips to yours, you could feel yourself melting. it felt like being kissed by the sun, something warm, fresh, and oh-so-comfortable you could stay within it all day long. the other pulled away first, giving you a kind smile.
ćSHINAZUGAWA SANEMI: é¢Øć
this man would honestly be a mess if you confessed first.
and youād probably do it in an odd manner too thatād have him in confusion.
after a hashira meeting you all would disperse, walking around and minding your ownābut you. you had this all planned out. you had to do it today. mustering up the courage for months, it was a promise made to yourself that you would definitely confess. he would not even notice you coming near him until youāre directly in front of him, giving the poor male a shock. stepping back a few feet, sanemi would honestly be weirded out.
were you okay? whyāre you invading his personal space? butāit was you to be this weirdāso he didnāt question it. you maintained your silence, just boring holes into his soul with your stare.
after waving a hand in your face, you regained yourself. a smile came across your face as you held the manās scarred hands gently. you pressed them against your face, earning the looks of all of your fellow hashira around you.
āwhat an amusing sight.ā the sound hashira replied, rubbing his chin in interest.
āsanemi-kun.ā your soft voice called to him, earning a blush from the male.
āwhaddāya want? got attention from everyone for your stupid request.ā he mumbled, staring at the way your eyes didnāt lose their glow.
āi was wondering if you wanted my confession today. iāve been waiting to tell you how much i like you for quite a while now. if it isnāt too much trouble, may i tell you of how it first-ā
āthatās enough. youāre tryna tell me you like me, right? like some silly crush?ā the other spat, and you nodded your head.
āyes, indeed! iām absolutely in love you with you.ā you answered, chuckling when his blush only deepened.
āa-alright, alright. i get it. i accept it, okay? now beat it. iāve got places to be.ā the male responded, feeling his heart do a backflip.
you walked away after that, literally skipping away. stopping in front of the mist hashira, you handed the younger a piece of candy as you two began a conversation. sanemi watched you intently, smiling softly to himself. his heart felt warm. it felt loved. and to receive it all from you just took the cake.
