The day for Final Selection had finally arrived. Giyuu was both vibrating with ecstatic anticipation and a giddy nervousness as he was handed the katana he would use. Urokodaki waved him and Sabito off after a lengthy hug and they set off on their way towards the mountain.

"Are you sure we'll make it?" Giyuu asked, his hand opening and closing around his katana handle. 

"I'm sure we will," Sabito assured him with a smile that made Giyuu melt. "And if either of—or neither of us—don't make it, at least we tried, right? Besides, we'll be together no matter what." 

"But if one of us dies and the other doesn't... we won't be together," Giyuu mumbled with a frown.

"Yeah, well, how about I give you something, then?" Sabito asked.

They had reached the site, the heavy scent of wisteria making Giyuu bring a hand up to his nose, covering it momentarily. There were lanterns scattered about and the purple flowers seemed to glow iridescently around them as night fell, the sky overhead barely visible through the trees.

"What do you mean?" Giyuu asked, turning to him with a curious gaze.

Sabito smiled, tugging Giyuu's hand towards him, pulling him forward. He brought Giyuu's hand up to his mouth, placing a gentle kiss on his knuckles. Giyuu flushed. "S...Sabito?"

"Giyuu, if you die, I will never forget you. Never. And if I die, just know that I always loved you, alright?" Sabito said, cradling Giyuu's hand and pulling him closer by his waist. 

Love. He loved him.

"I... I'll... I'll always love you too," Giyuu murmured, resting his forehead against Sabito's, a small smile curving his lips up. His cheeks were flushed pink, which had nothing to do with the breeze that swooped through the clearing.

The chatter of the people slowly entering around them faded as Sabito's hands lifted, cupping Giyuu's face. Their eyes met and for a moment, it was just the two of them, together, together. They were safe, Giyuu was safe, Sabito was safety. And he loved him, and Sabito loved him, and Giyuu loved him, and... and it was alright.

Sabito's eyes fluttered close and Giyuu hesitated. Then Sabito was leaning closer and all Giyuu could comprehend was lips against his own, his eyes shutting, leaving him with only the sense of the sweet taste of Sabito's mouth. Until it was pulled away and he longed for more, but he knew it was not the time. 

Sabito smiled gently at him and dropped his hands down, holding Giyuu's in his own. 

"Forever, okay?" Sabito said reassuringly. "I love you forever."

"I... I love you too," Giyuu whispered, breathless. 

Sabito, against the purple light of the flowers and lanterns, Sabito, all his. He looked lovely. Like an angel. Sometimes, Sabito would talk about his scar detracting from himself. But the scar meant nothing. It was just another line in this... masterpiece of a boy. 

"I love you so much," Giyuu mumbled.

Sabito kissed his cheek then let go of one of his hands, pulling him towards the arc which stretched over the entrance to Final Selection.
