Hyakkimaru X Dororo (Dororo)

*Marry Me*

(A/N: This one-shot took place after episode 24)

Third Person's Pov

"Aniki look! Isn't it pretty?" Dororo held up a pink Kimono in front of Hyakkimaru. It has the soft color of a cherry blossoms and it looks really beautiful.

The two of them are currently in Dororo's room, she wanted to show her Bro all of her new and pretty Kimono. But more than that, she wanted to show him that she's slowly becoming a woman. A woman that needed a man... like her Bro.

"Yes, it's pretty like Dororo." His voice may sounded emotionless but Dororo knows that his words are always true and sincere. With that said, Dororo's cheeks flared up as she tried to avoid his Bro's unexpectedly intense gaze.

"W-what are you saying, Aniki? I-i'm not pretty. Actually, people used to say that I looked like a boy when I was a child." She murmured the last sentence, and yet Hyakkimaru still heard it.

"That's not true, Dororo is pretty... even before." A smile grazed at Hyakkimaru's face as he said those words.

"Aniki." Dororo felt so happy, she really does. And only her Bro can make her feel that way.

"Hey Aniki? Do... do you really think that I'm pretty?" She questioned him, a spark of hope in her eyes as she awaits for his answer.

Hyakkimaru pauses for a longer moment before standing up in his feet. He slowly walks towards Dororo's direction, and only stop when he's already in front of her.

He kneeled down and leaned his face near hers. He looked straight into her eyes and smiled. A warm and gentle smile that Dororo misses so much. When her Bro left her, she was angry at first since she doesn't expect that Hyakkimaru would leave without her, but when her anger subsided she started to yearned for his presence beside her. She missed him so much that it hurts. She wanted to follow him but managed to stopped herself. Her Bro needed some time alone, so she had to wait. Wait for him to come back and get her himself.

"Dororo?" Hyakkimaru softly called her name. His eyes not leaving hers. She gulped first before uttering a silent 'yes'.

"You are beautiful. The most beautiful and precious thing that I've come across in this world. Without Dororo, I've already forgotten that I am a human. Dororo is my everything." A sincere confession coming from her Bro, Dororo can't believe it but it's really happening.

Hyakkimaru gently put his hand in Dororo's cheek while the other found it's way on her waist. He held her tightly in his arms, afraid that she might vanish into thin air when he let go.

"Bro?" Confusion clouded her face as she tried to wrap her head on what's currently happening between them. This is the first time that they've gotten this close.

"Be mine Dororo! I missed you so much."

"W-what do you mean?" With a trembling voice, she managed to asked.

"Marry me?" A proposal that sudden, surprised Dororo so much. Marry? Her Bro? She must be hallucinating.

"Y-you're joking right, Aniki?" She can't believe this. Its so... unreal.

"I'm not! I want Dororo to marry me." He repeated.

"Why me? And do you even know what Marriage is?" She asked, still trying to get everything straight.

"Yes I know now. I've heard a lot of it in my travels. And why is it you that I wanted to marry? It's because... I love Dororo." The gleam in his eyes intensify as he looked down at the girl in his arms. The girl who gave him what he truly wanted.

A tear slid down Dororo's cheek, she can't believe it. Her Bro loves her. He loves her.

"I-."

"What about you? Do you love me too?" This time, it's his turn to question her.

"I-i love Aniki too. When you leave me alone, I really thought that you don't needed me anymore that's why you're casting me aside. But now, I'm really glad that you felt the same way that I did." More tears comes pouring down from her eyes, damping her cheeks but she didn't care. Her wish is finally granted.

"I'll marry you Aniki." She said with a smile.

"Call me by my name." He told her, or more like ordered her.

"Eh? W-why?"

"If you're going to marry me, I want you to start calling me by my name." He insisted.

"I-i see. Very well then... H-hyakkimaru?" She whispered. A blush slowly creeping onto her cheeks. She tried to tilt her head down in order to hide it but Hyakkimaru stopped her from doing so.

He lift her head upward and make her look into his deep chocolate-colored eyes. He slowly leaned down until they're noses touched each other.

"Dororo, I love you." After that, he cut-off the distance between them by pressing his mouth onto hers. The two of them shared a gentle yet passionate kiss, despite being new to this kind of stuff.

The kiss lingers a few more minutes before Dororo leaned away. She smiled at her Bro and soon-to-be husband, before placing her head in his broad and sturdy chest. Hearing his heart beats fast like hers, gave of a warm feeling.

"I love you too, Hyakkimaru."
