2nd part of song fic with Fatal Angst
Requested by:Kevdaisy

Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now..

Obanai walked up to the estate of another pillar to see the commotion. She was in his arms, holding on for life. Petals around their movements. Mitsuri who was holding his hand broke in tears as she never noticed her pain. The large amounts of dried and bloody petals.

The same ones they planted not too long ago.

Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same
When our friends talk about you, all it does is just tear me down

Shinobu ran to ask what was wrong and see if she could fix her condition. It was fatal but, she was fighting on. Her grip on his mixed haori was one for life. He eyes with bloody tears.  Him whispering to her to hold on and that he would never leave her.

"I'm right here, stay with me (Y/n)."

'Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name

Heart shattering. Why?

Within a few more weeks, the pillar regained her health slowly, for the time she was bed ridden all visited her except Obanai. Giyuu would hold her hand and get her anything she needed. If he was out he would in trust Tanjiro to help care for her.

It all just sounds like ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo

Mitsuri would beg Obanai to come along and see for her, if he cared for her. But in his mind..he couldn't bare it. When he did go it was when Shinobu explained her illness and how deadly it could have been if she didn't see medical help.

Mm, too young, too dumb to realize

He..never knew..but he did know..he just didn't care. The flower..the haori..the always there for a lending hand.
"(Y/n)-chan has Hanahaki disease, a deadly and very much fatal disease. Thank you Tomioka-san for bringing this to light and bringing her in for medical attention. Sadly not much is known for the cause or the flowers but the closing of air passage and blood in the lungs is deadly."

That I should have bought you flowers

Obanai bite down on his lips. She was dying painfully slow. And he didn't even god dam realize?

Should have gave you all my hours
When I had the chance

Night and day Giyuu would give reports of what was said or done. Spending more and more time with her. Just him and her. Obanai didn't let it bother him, he was stubborn. With this he became cold when the topic came up.

Take you to every party 'cause all you wanted to do was dance

"Why not?" many asked him of hwy he didn't care. Some recalled they were close. All he said.
"If it doesn't matter about me or to me. Then why should I care. It isn't Mitsuri who is on the death bed. So I don't care."

Now my baby's dancing
But she's dancing with another man

Giyuu was seen at the butterfly estate many times walking with her or talking with her. Laughing. The bittersweet burn in his chest hurt. But he said what he said.

My pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made, oh
And that haunts me every time I close my eyes

Soon enough she returned to pillar meetings but never walked or spoke to Obanai after it. Keeping herself near Kyojuro or Giyuu. Kyojuro would walk her home ever mission, and Giyuu would help get to the mission. 

It all just sounds like ooh, ooh, ooh, hoo
Mm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should have bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should have gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party 'cause all you wanted to do was dance

His words burned in her chest like knives, but the people who stood with her were there. So she walked away, if he didn't seem to care then she wouldn't either. 
Even despite his silents cries of 'don't leave me or don't let go.' She left within the wind. The petals that were stuck in her throat.

Were of the bouquet another man gave to her every night.

All the laughs he given her to cheer up, another man did for her just the same.

Now my baby's dancing
But she's dancing with another man

The nights at home, looking over broken memories, broken dreams. But even so on and off he was heard scolding her for seeming so weak despite the heart beating faster every time he was around her. Giving the wished affections from her to Mitsuri. Who accepted them without batting an eye.

Although it hurts
I'll be the first to say that I was wrong

"I'm sorry..I'm so sorry..."

Whispers that were spoken in his final moments. His body ached in pain and was dying slowly. Blood dripping from his mouth. But hidden through the bandages

Oh, I know I'm probably much too late
To try and apologize for my mistakes
But I just want you to know

"I love you too...and I do.."

"I pronounce you man and wife, you may kiss the bride!"
"Congrats to the Water and (your choice) pillar!"

He watched with Mitsuri in the crowd at the ceremony, she looked beautfiul. She was. But the man holding her arm, with the flowers.

I hope he buys you flowers

The silver and gold rings.

I hope he holds your hand

The smiles of happiness, the promise of staying forever with each other. The vows of love, care and passion.

Give you all his hours

The throwing rice and walking through the amounts of it. Hugs and thanks of care and love. While one solo heart within it's bitter hold. Beats to the dream they are living. Begging to apologize. Begging for forgiveness. Asking where did it go wrong?

When he has the chance
Take you to every party
'Cause I remember how much you loved to dance

The bride and groom eating and smiling for pictures, the younger slayers cheering and watching them walk into the garden for a stroll. The trees and lights. The nightly moon showcasing their new love and new lives. Dancing slowly with dream filled eyes and smiles.

Do all the things I should have done
When I was your man

Obanai held onto Mitsuri's hand tightly, she took it as he was nervous about demons but..no..he was angry. At Giyuu, at himself. But it always seemed at her. NO. He loved her, adored her.. 
Once he was home he bid goodbye to Mitsuri and took off the bandages. Slowly one by one.

Red roses fell out his mouth. He spoke softly.

"Do all the things I should have done...

More and more came falling. His body was in shooting and horrible pain. Even when the new marriage was decided.
She was happy. He wasn't.

He was sorry.

When I was your man.."

"Karma is a bitch isn't it?"
