Going under... | ObaGiyuu | Hanahaki Disease

One-sided Obagiyu? Hanahaki disease.

Angsty. But I can't write angst, so 🤷‍♂️🤷🤷‍♀️

----------------------------------------------------

Some people mistake love for hate. When people find out that they never hated that person, it's already too late.

They either move on or something happens.

------------------------------------------------------------------

The water pillar thinks it's time for it all to end. All this pain and suffering. He decides to try and slit his throat, much to no avail. Kocho finds him, and she heals him. She thinks a demon did it to him, though.

For who would expect the full of himself Hashira to try and commit suicide?

He tries and tries again to die, but someone is always there to stop him. He gets a bit annoyed at this, and so he tries to drown himself.

But as he's near the bottom, he gets pulled up and out of the water.

----------------------------------------------------

"Tomioka, what the f*ck are you doing!?" He shouted at me.

"I... wanted the pain to finally end..." I whispered to him.

"You tried to kill yourself..?" He said almost silently. He put a hand on my shoulder. "Do...Do you want to talk..about...it..?"

I stayed quiet. I know he had a rough childhood, too. I don't want to burden him...

He awkwardly patted my head. "I'll be here if you need to talk..." He pulled me into a hug.

"..." In that moment when he was comforting me, I fell for him. I don't know how, but I did...

I knew it was unrequited, though...
