WHO.....?? ( sanegiyuu)

acceptance

As Sanemi's hands cupped Giyuu's face, Giyuu's body instinctively tensed, his mind racing with anticipation. But instead of the expected confrontation, Sanemi's face drew closer, his eyes filled with a deep affection. Giyuu's wariness melted away as Sanemi's arms wrapped around him, pulling him into a warm embrace.

In that moment, Giyuu felt a weight lift off his shoulders as Sanemi whispered words of acceptance, his breath tickling Giyuu's ear. "I accept you, Giyuu. All of you. You and the baby, both." A wave of relief washed over Giyuu, his heart swelling with emotion as he felt Sanemi's love and support envelop him.

As Sanemi's words hung in the air, the other Hashira couldn't help but feel a sense of joy and celebration. Giyuu's face lit up with a radiant smile, his eyes shining with happiness, as Sanemi's arms remained wrapped around him.

Gyomei, ever the stoic, cracked a rare smile, his voice filled with warmth. "May you both be blessed with good health and happiness."

Kanroji, on the other hand, squealed with delight, her eyes sparkling. "Kyaa!! You both are so cute! I'm so happy for you!"

The room filled with the sound of laughter and congratulations, as the Hashira gathered around the couple, offering words of encouragement and support. Obanai, Sanemi's closest friend, clapped him on the back, a grin spreading across his face. "I'll always be here to support you, Sanemi. You two are meant to be."

As the celebration continued, Giyuu and Sanemi shared a tender glance, their hearts full of love and gratitude for the acceptance and support of their friends and comrades.

As the celebration died down, Giyuu and Sanemi made their way out of the room, hand in hand, with Sanemi supporting Giyuu's shoulder and helping him walk. The gentle gesture was a testament to Sanemi's care and concern for Giyuu's well-being, especially in his delicate condition.

As they walked, Sanemi's voice was laced with a mix of curiosity and gentle reprimand. "Giyuu, why didn't you tell me about the pregnancy sooner? "

Giyuu's cheeks flushed slightly, his eyes cast downward. "I was afraid, Sanemi. Afraid of how you'd react, afraid of being a burden...I didn't know how to tell you."

Sanemi's grip on Giyuu's hand tightened, his voice softening. "You're never a burden to me, Giyuu. You and our child are my everything. I'm just sorry I didn't get to be there for you sooner."

Giyuu's face lifted, his eyes meeting Sanemi's, filled with love and gratitude. "You're here now, Sanemi. That's all that matters."

Sanemi's eyes gazed deeply into Giyuu's, his voice filled with emotion. "I'm sorry too, Giyuu. Sorry for not realizing my feelings sooner. Sorry for not being there for you when you needed me most."

Giyuu's face softened, his hand squeezing Sanemi's reassuringly.

Sanemi continued, his voice cracking slightly. "When you told me you were pregnant, I was afraid. Afraid of losing you, of not being able to protect you and our child. But now...now I'm happy. Happy that this child is ours, that we get to start this new chapter together."

Giyuu's eyes shone with tears, his voice barely above a whisper. "I'm happy too, Sanemi. Happy that you're here with me, that we get to face this together."

Sanemi's face drew closer, his lips brushing against Giyuu's in a gentle, loving kiss. "We'll face everything together, Giyuu. Always."

As they arrived at Giyuu's estate, Sanemi's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Giyuu, can we live together now? I want to wake up every morning with you by my side."

Giyuu's face lit up with a radiant smile. "Yes, Sanemi. I'd like that."

Sanemi's face beamed with joy as he helped Giyuu sit on the couch. "Rest here, I'll make us some food. Your favorite, salmon Diakon."

Giyuu's eyes widened in surprise. "How did you know?"

Sanemi chuckled. "I pay attention, Giyuu. I want to take care of you and our child."

As Sanemi busied himself in the kitchen, the aroma of Ske Diakon wafted through the air, making Giyuu's stomach growl with anticipation. Sanemi returned with a steaming hot plate, his eyes filled with love and care.

"Here, Giyuu. Eat up. You need your strength."

Giyuu's heart swelled with emotion as he took a bite, the flavors dancing on his tongue. "Mmm...this is delicious, Sanemi. You're an amazing cook."

Sanemi smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "I'm glad you like it. I'll always take care of you, Giyuu."

As they finished their meal, Giyuu and Sanemi sat together on the couch, hands entwined, and talked long into the afternoon. They shared stories, laughed, and cherished each other's company, basking in the warmth of their love.

For the first time in a long while, Giyuu felt truly happy and at peace. Sanemi's acceptance of him and their child had lifted a weight off his shoulders, and he knew he could face whatever challenges came their way.

Sanemi, too, felt a sense of relief wash over him. He was no longer afraid of losing Giyuu, and he knew that their love was strong enough to overcome any obstacle.

As the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the room, Giyuu leaned his head on Sanemi's shoulder, feeling grateful for this new chapter in their lives.

"Thank you, Sanemi," Giyuu whispered, his voice filled with emotion. "Thank you for accepting me and our child. I'm so happy to have you by my side."

Sanemi's arms tightened around Giyuu, holding him close. "I'll always be here for you, Giyuu. Forever and always."

I wish for them to have a happy life
