Love....As three Pillars parted ways after their impromptu lunch Obanai found himself lost in thought. His mind swirled with a maelstrom of emotions, emotions he had long buried deep within himself.
The way (Y/N)'s eyes had sparkled with mischief the warmth of their words, the genuine concern they had shown – it all weighed heavily on Obanai's mind. He couldn't shake the feeling his heart had somehow betrayed him. The walls he had so carefully constructed were beginning to crumble.
Mitsuri's presence had always been a constant in his life. A beacon of warmth and affection that he had grown to cherish. Now as he replayed the events of afternoon, he couldn't help but notice the way his gaze had constantly been drawn to (Y/N). His heart had raced at their every word.
Could it be? Was he... falling in love with (Y/N)? The very thought sent a shiver down his spine. Obanai had always prided himself on his unwavering focus his ability to keep his emotions in check. But now, in face of this unexpected development he felt utterly adrift.
He remembered the way (Y/N) had spoken to him concern lacing their voice. Genuine care was shown, not just for Mitsuri but for him as well. It was a level of vulnerability that Obanai had never allowed himself to experience. A raw openness that both terrified and enthralled him.
Mitsuri had always been the one to break through his carefully constructed defenses. Her love and devotion a constant source of comfort and strength. But now it was (Y/N) who had managed to stir something within him. Something he had long since thought buried.
Obanai's brow furrowed. He tried to make sense of these newfound emotions. Was it possible to love two people so deeply. So completely at the same time? The very idea was foreign to him, a concept he had never even considered.
Yet as he walked the familiar streets of Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, Obanai couldn't deny the truth that was slowly unfolding before him. His heart had betrayed him. And in the process it had opened itself up to alluring presence of (Y/N).
The question now was what was he going to do about it? Obanai's mind raced. He grappled with conflicting emotions swirling within him.On one hand, his love for Mitsuri was constant. A steadfast anchor that had guided him through turbulent waters of his life. Her unwavering affection and support had been the driving force behind his decision to embrace path of Demon Slayer.
Yet now the unexpected arrival of (Y/N) had stirred something deep within him. A longing and attraction that he had never experienced before. The way their eyes had sparkled with mischief. The warmth and sincerity in their words – it had all left an indelible mark on his heart.
Obanai let out a frustrated sigh. His brow furrowed as he tried to reconcile these two vastly different emotions. Could he really love two people simultaneously? The very idea seemed antithetical to everything he had ever believed in.
He thought back to his past. To the betrayal and heartbreak that had forged his stoic and guarded nature. The idea of opening himself up to possibility of such profound emotional turmoil once again filled him with deep sense of unease.Yet as he reflected on time he had spent with Mitsuri and (Y/N), he couldn't deny profound connection he felt with both of them. Mitsuri's unwavering love and support had been a constant source of comfort and strength. (Y/N)'s unexpected arrival had awakened a part of him he had long since thought dormant.
Obanai clenched his fists. His mind was racing as he tried to find solution to this dilemma. Could he truly be content with choosing one and forsaking the other? The thought made his heart ache with pain he had never known before.
As he walked the familiar paths of the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters Obanai knew that he could no longer hide from truth. He was in love. Not just with Mitsuri, but with (Y/N) as well. The thought of having to choose between the two was a burden he wasn't sure he could bear.
Steeling his resolve. Obanai made a silent vow to confront this newfound complexity head-on. He would need to find way to reconcile these feelings to navigate uncharted waters of his heart. For if he didn't, he risked losing everything he held dear – the love of Mitsuri and the spark ignited by (Y/N).
It would not be easy path. Obanai was determined to find way forward. Even if it meant shattering the carefully constructed walls. He had built around his heart.
