Previously:Â
“Alright,” Obanai murmured.

The light had begun to filter through the dense forest when Obanai and Giyuu proposed to go back, their mission finishing as the sun rose.
They walked quietly, their presences soothing each other.Â
Giyuu was lost in thought, his mind drawing out Obanai’s figure standing admist the fireflies, looking like some goddamn angel. His heart beat abnormally fast at the thought and he wondered what the hell was wrong with him. Obanai hadn’t been particularily kind to him before, never had given him a second glance.
And yet.
And yet, Giyuu was in love. Had fallen into some feverish dream of admiration, his eyes wandering over to the Serpent Hashira.
Obanai didn’t seem to notice, at first, keeping to himself. He held a hand up to Kaburamaru, stroking the snake’s head affectionately. But then he turned slightly, and caught Giyuu’s eye.Â
“Why do you keep staring at me?” Obanai asked, cocking his head. He didn’t sound mad, not yet, at least. He sounded curious, only.
“I… Apologies,” Giyuu murmured, turning his flushed face away.
Obanai stopped and Giyuu mimicked him, unsure what was going to happen.
“Do you need anything?” the shorter of the two asked, crossing arms. Although his tone stayed placid, his eyes had a interested light to them.
“No,” Giyuu replied quietly. That was a lie. Yes, yes he needed something. He needed someone.Â
“Mhm. You might as well be the worst liar in history,” Obanai said pointedly, rolling his eyes.
“…Sorry.”
 “Is something wrong?” he asked, raising an eyebrow. “Just tell me, Tomioka.”
“No… Why do you keep asking?” Giyuu said, changing the subject.
“You’re the one who was staring at me. I have the right to know why!” Obanai said, which was a fair point, unfortunately.Â
“…Okay,” Giyuu mumbled. “But you won’t like it.”
“Obviously. I won’t tell anyone what you say, if that makes you feel better,” he offered.Â
“Right.” Giyuu hesitated. “I think I like you.”
A pause.
“What?”
“I like you,” Giyuu repeated.
“No, I heard that, don’t… don’t say it again,” Obanai mumbled, flushed. He brought his hand up to his face, his sleeve obscuring his expression.
“Oh.”Â
There was another moment of silence as Giyuu waited for a reaction.Â
“Are you mad?” he asked finally, unsure what to make of his unanswered confession.
“I’m not,” Obanai said, albeit he turned away. “No. I’m not mad.”
“Then… what?”
“You’re talking a lot today,” he said quietly, trying to steer away from having to answer.Â
“I am?”Â
“Yes.”
“If you’re not mad, then what are you?” Giyuu asked, going back to the previous subject.
“I’ll… respond… later,” Obanai murmured, starting to walk again, picking up his pace.
Giyuu, deciding this was fair, followed him quickly.Â
The air was beginning to warm as the sun slowly made it’s ascend into the sky and the two Hashira found the path out of the forest, making their way back.
