Okay... it's been pretty rough... I tore my ACL so I won't be able to play my senior year... It sucks, a lot, especially when I've played this sport for nearly 14 years of my life and the final year I can play without a care for scholarships or anything is gone. The reality that I could have very much kissed my sport goodbye is still settling in, BUT! I will be back to normal... hopefully within 7 months so yeah, but! Anyways getting off track, Okay, so this was a request and I'm sorry it's not exactly as requested. Some fluff seemed like it was in order! SO ENJOY THIS PART 2 OF SHOOTING STAR! Tanjiro X Inosuke younger twin sister (Blood, cursing, killing demons, mention of sex, and abandonment issues)\ haley chambers thank you for the request!
Within the rooms of the Butterfly estate, Y/n was sitting, her deer head resting in front of her. She was humming a soft tune to herself, brushing out her hair and smoothing out her skirt, ensuring no wrinkles. She was getting ready for her first official date with Tanjiro. Having been traveling rather constantly for a near year, Tanjiro promised her that their official first date would be extravagant. They had shared kisses late at night, cuddled close to one another as the storms passed, and he's even had his ass saved by her more times than he can count. "Okay... Okay... First date... ever," She was a blushy, giddy mess. Sure she'd traveled through the village from village, men fancying her, trying to court her, or just fuck her. But Tanjiro was different... His aura was so pure, no ill intention shone behind his smile, not sex-driven, greedy... he looked at her. Not her body, her face, her high rank... no he was loving her soul.
"He's the one" she whispered, gently petting the decapitated head. Shinobu couldn't help but chuckle, smiling from the doorway. She was expecting to have slightly startled Y/n but alas she was always on guard and could sense her approaching from a mile away. 'Poor girl' she couldn't help the small pitty that developed for the undercover Hashira, knowing of the heartache she's accounts but never getting the fame the others possess. This was her first date...
"He sees me! not anything but me!" She rose to her feet quickly, running to meet Shinobu at the door, "I'm not a Warrior or a Slayer!" She giggled, "To Him, I'm a Lover!"
"He is a good pick," She nodded in agreement with the girl. She had never seen her act like this before... The typically calm and collective girl was so flustered... acting like a teen. It was refreshing, to see her interacting with other teens and even pursuing a relationship. 'Just gotta keep her occupied for a few more minutes' she hummed, trying to fulfill her promise to her older brute of a brother who was currently interrogating the 'perfect' boy. (With Tanjiro)
"KAMABUCHO!" Tanjiro swallowed tightly at the serious tone of the Boar masked man. He could smell the aggressive radiating off the boy... "Why her?" low and deep, growling and rolling the R. His face was hidden but his snarl was evident.
Tanjiro took a deep breath... unsure how to word his sentience to avoid outrage. He clenched the side of his slacks once smooth to the touch now wrinkled. His collared shirt felt as if a boa construct was wrapped around his neck. And his sword, which was securely strapped to his hip was quite tempting to draw as an extended means of protection from the boar boy. "W-well I,"
"WHY DID YOU FALL IN LOVE WITH HER?!" Inosuke said, not even allowing the redhead to defend himself... "SEX?" He was now crawling across the table that separated the two, reaching his hand to grab Tanjiros collar tightly, wrinkling that now as well. Holding it so tight his knuckles had turned white... "Gonna fuck? HUH?? USE HER AND LEAVE!?" His breath was heavy, puffs coming out the nose of the mask making him all the more intimidating. However... he wasn't quite sure where this sudden hatred for his best friend had come from... Tanjiro was the man he trusted most... and to have him marry the woman he trusted most made sense but... the idea of him taking her away. He had done everything with his sister... been through hell and back with her... he was scared, "Gonna take her away?? Leave me behind!? HUH!?"
As his words spewed... Tanjiro's eyes widened in realization... Inosuku wasn't mad at him... he didn't hate him... he was scared... scared that Tanjiro would take his away from him, destroying their found family. "Inozuke..." His voice was soft, talking as if the boar-masked man was a wild animal, hurt and scared of the storm.
"G-gonna leave us... take her away from me," The gasp that left him was so soft, feeling Tanjiro's hands covered his... his grip instantly loosening as he stared at Tanjiros soft smile and kind eyes.
"We... are not going anywhere," He refused to tear his stare from the dead eyes of the boar, "We are staying right here... with our family," with a gentle tug, Inosuke released his collar, and allowed Tanjiro to reach and remove his mask. Faced to face with the beautiful man, his eyes watery and his breath rather ragged. Since meeting them... he had always considered him a brother, loved him like one, needed him like one. Even before he had fallen in love with Y/n. "You are my brother... and... If I'm with Y/n... I can just officially call you that," His smile was bright, shining in the dim room of the butterfly estate.
"Like... the damn sun," Inoske always compared his sister to the cosmos, colorful, powerful, elegant... at least that's how she would describe them, so with his own recognition of that, he had demanded her to give him a role in her cosmos. Remembering her soft giggle as she thought hard about his role, He was more than elided to be called the comet. Raging without fear and abiding by no rules, taking on anything that dared to cross its path. 'If he becomes the sun..." He placed each person in a place... Nezuko as the Moon, opposite of her brother, and Zenitsue as the stars... that left the sun... 'He... completes our universe' the thought caused a smile to spread across his face. All the pieces were set in place... their roles perfectly matched to them, a brilliant revelation. Now, he was never considered the sharpest tool in the shed but he understood his sister better than anything, how she'd think, act, but he never completely got the comparison, she had even compared their mother to the Big Bang that supposedly created the world like how she created them he never understood... but here... in this moment... it all fell into place.
"I love her... and I can't wait any longer," Tanjiro confessed, his words, the way he phrased them caught the beautiful man's attention. "I want to be her sun! as you call me," he muttered, fidgeting with the delicate object resting in his pocket, "I want.. no NEED to be in her galaxy!" he held no shame, no hesitation... no fear... "I'm going to ask her to marry me!" He stared into Inosukes green eyes, "I need her to be mine forever!" He knew what was approaching, the battle that could very much well cut their time short, life was too delicate right now, and he could never forgive himself if he didn't capitalize on this chance.
He internally panicked as Inosuke went still, his scent changing drastically, from calm to pure excitement. He chuckled at the loud laugh and cheers that came from his friend, "HAHA KAMABUCHO I LIKE HOW YOU THINK!" He grabbed Tanjiro's shoulders tightly shaking him violently, back and forth several times before hugging him, "BROTHER!"
"Brother..."
(TIME SKIPPP) Y/n held Tanjiros hand tightly, blood coursing through her veins as small splatters of blood coated her form. Her skirt was ruined, ripped, and stained, and her hair was no longer pretty. Instead fuzzed and crazy, hair tie broken and knotted with clumps of blood and dirt. She glanced over at Tanjiros form, whose eyes were closed and his head tilted toward her. His shirt was singed and ripped, his pants no longer pressed sleek, and his chest rose and fell with struggle and a soft wheeze. "Y-y/n?" He groaned, moving to sit up off the forest floor, shivering at the blood that soiled the land in front of him. A little price to pay to rid the village of its demons.
"Yes?" She chuckled, sitting up as well... having joined the exhausted Tanjiro on the ground after he had collapsed. She, however, was still fully energized, adrenaline pumping. "Wasn't that fun? We killed bad demons and saved the village! What a date!" She giggled, looking over to him. 15... she had slayed 15 demons in 10 minutes... to protect the villagers and her boyfriend. Hell, she even killed the 2 he was struggling to deal with so chalk it up to 17. "Tanjiro?" She gently lifted her hand brushing his hair away from his eyes, smiling as he opened them cooing at the beauty of them. Before she used her thumb to rub away some of the grim that had coated his face.
"My girlfriends... a god," he muttered eyes staring at her... the moonlight catching her perfectly, her eyes shining with the remnants of her breathing style... her y/c/e had such a shine to them like a galaxy was shrunk and gifted to her, her eyes... he found... was the place he'd like to go when he dies. Calm, beautiful... and still with her.
Y/n tilted her head softly in confusion, "God?" She only tensed slightly when his hand reached and took hold of her face... her only response was to lean into it... He simply just admired her. Whenever they would fight together she'd always have that Deer Skull cladding her face, never had he been able to gaze upon her beauty whilst in battle. Countless times while clashing with the demons, he found himself watching her... watching as she'd slice the head of one, then taking a moment to say a prayer and write a simple symbol where the demon's body fell. He was so lost in her that he hadn't even realized his hand was moving to cradle the back of her neck, "Tanjiro?"
"My...god...beautiful...perfect," He didn't know why god was the word to describe her but she was... she was elegant, powerful, beautiful... and dangerous just like one. How strange... He always used to describe Inosuke as a monster... aggressive, angry... powerful... but could gods and monsters be related? Could such a revenge beast share blood with one so elegant? "My God," he whispered before pulling her in and connecting their lips. He felt her tense slightly before slowly melting into his lips... He pulled her deeper, with his other hand remaining on her cheek. She also felt as he melted into her, the feeling of her strong arms wrapping around his neck. Warming his soul and heating up his entire body... their movements were slow and passionate... neither wanting to break away from the other's love. Bodys held so close they were practically one, holding each so tightly, as if the lettering go would kill them on the spot.
With much resilience, Tanjiro only pulled away when he felt himself become light-headed from the lack of oxygen but even as he pulled away he didn't move far. Resting his forehead against hers, lips only centimeters apart breathes molding with each pant of air from their lungs... "Ah... Hi," His eyes were dazed and airy, refusing to leave hers, cheeks a ruby red with heat to them.
Y/n couldn't help the giggle that left her throat, a soft "hello," following suit. She could still feel the tight grip his hand held on the back of her neck, squeezing softly every now and then as if reminding himself that she was real... that she was his. "Tanjiro?"
"Marry me," He whispered, but in the silence of the forest, it was loud and blaring.
"W-what?"
"P-please?" he hesitated, "I already asked Inosuke," It was a small detail, one most would overlook, but he knew it was important to her. She couldn't help her breath hitching, realizing he had remembered such a meaningless conversation. They were sitting at that inn, the night late, and everyone sleeping soundly... except for her. She remembered how she couldn't sleep, no not after encountering the demon with the rainbow eyes. One she had been running from... his face, his voice, the memories that seemed to follow.
"You remember that stupid conversation?" Y/n remembered how concerned he was, how he asked why she was awake so late into the night... and before she could even stop herself she shared such a meaningless fact about herself, 'Tanjiro... when I get married, make sure he asks Inosuke for my hand... Since I have no farther,' never was she expecting the boy to take those words to heart... but here he was, informing her that he had followed through with her request.
"Face Inosuke to get the girl," He smiled softly at her, eyes still staring into hers, "Worth it all," He sighed,
"You... I can't believe you.."
"Of course I remembered, It was important to you... and the gateway to your hand," He moved, his body now less sore and adrenaline pumping again, but for a much different reason. With ease he lifted her off him, helping her stand before following suit. "Okay... let me do this properly," He muttered, smoothing out his dress shirt as best as possible before dropping to one knee.
With a deep breath, he took her hand and began, "Y/n... the life we live is not a safe one... nor a happy one," stopping for a moment, he reached his free hand into his pocket... carefully pulling out a ring that could only be described as... perfect. For her at least, unique just the way he knew her to be. It was beautiful, 2 beautiful ruby gems sat with the sockets of what was once a delicate bird, stripped of skin and feathers... only a skull remaining. Y/n gasped, it was quite obvious it was custom... the cost to find a bird that small and the gems... not to mention the delicate hands needed to handle such a small thing. "But with you, it is... to wake up knowing... that you'll be there..." He hesitated for a moment, "I know... we're young but I need to know that no matter what... I am yours... and You are mine," Looking up at her, her eyes were glossed but shining, and his lips wavered at her lack of response... "Will you marry me?"
Y/n could only stare, still processing all the care he had put into this gesture. One she had dreamed of her whole life, but never truly expected it to happen. The skill would sit so perfectly on her delicate finger.... but her silence was slowly breaking the boy's heart... Was it so to say no? Was it too soon? Did she not want to be tied down? All these questions began rumbling in his head... about ready to erupt... until her soft voice broke through "T-Tanjiro..." He stared at her intently... awaiting... "Yes..."
"HAHA!" Before she could even finish, he was sweeping her off her feet, spinning her around, the moon bearing witness to it all. "REALLY? LIKE REALLY?"
"YES!! YES!!" She giggled as he buried his head into her neck, breathing in her euphoric scent... wanting her to always smell this way... Setting her down softly... just basking in the moment... the wonder and beautiful moment... "Y/n Kamado... I like it," She smiled, gently running a hand through his hair.
"Yeah... I love it," He muttered, holding her closer if possible, before pulling her into another passionate kiss, slipping the ring on her finger while doing so, officially securing the title of Fiancee... soon to be husband.
