Requested by @Iguromybeloved, hope ya like it!

L/n, Y/n, the (you choose) hashira, the best friend of Obanai Iguro, the serpent hashira. 

Y/n has always taken a liking to his best friend but has never acted upon it due to his best friends very very obvious crush on Mitsuri Kanroji, the love hashira, but the idea of homosexuality back then wasn't very approved of. A couple feet away Y/n could hear his best friend hang out with Mitsuri. 

"KYAAAAA!! Iguro-san thanks for eating with me today!!" 

"It's not a problem Kanroji, I like eating out with you."

He's happy for his best friend, yeah, but sometimes he wished to be her, to know what it was like to be loved by him in that way. "Maybe if I were born a girl like her, and acted like her, he'd love me like her." He thought to himself. But if it meant his best friend was happy then he was happy too. 

Meanwhile, yes Obanai had respect for mitsuri and thought she was a lovely woman, he never really truly had a crush on her. He didn't know why his heart yearned for another, why it said she wasn't the one, he just chose to ignore it. Because how could their truly be anyone else that he would love? They were soulmates if you'd ask the others, but sometimes he'd question it. "Maybe I'm just overthinking this whole love thing" he thought to himself. 

"Yo! Obanai!" Y/n had called out to him.

Oh, y/n his best friend, the man he could truly trust and respect.

"Yes?" He has replied.

"So I was wondering if you'd like to train with me? Considering we don't have any missions to do, I'd ask the others but you're my best buddy"

"Best buddy..." For some reason that term hurt obanai but he could never figure out why, maybe he was just being delusional, he'd never speak out about it, especially to the others, they'd tease as if he had a crush on Y/n.

"Sure" he replied.

-after training (I'm so sorry)-

Obanai was watching Y/n take off his top to rap a bandage across his shirt because he had accidentally fell down and opened a wound on the side. Shamelessly, Obanai kept watching Y/n, he knew he should stop but he didn't, he was entranced.

"Obanai?"

His focus on Y/n stopped when he heard Y/n's voice.

"Oh sorry... I was blanking out."

"Mmm... You okay? You seemed a bit distracted lately." 

"Y/n, what would you do if I said I thought I liked someone who was also a male..."

"Hm? Support you obviously dude, we're best friends for a reason."

"Is that so? Well then I think I like someone who is.... Also a guy"

"Congratulations! Who is it, always thought you had the hots for Kanroji"

"I'd rather not say... I always thought I liked Kanroji but now I'm starting to think otherwise"

"Hm... Well whenever ya wanna tell me, you can, I'm always here for ya!"

"Thanks Y/n"

Both of the hashiras had walked back to their estates to rest.

-the next day(sorry again)-

Obanai's pov:

"Hm... Kanroji said she wanted to see me today, I wonder what that's about." He thought as he was walking over to her estate.

"Iguro-san!! You came!!"

"I wouldn't ever say no, you know I like your company anyways."

"Yesyes!! Anyways would you like some tea?! I have something very important to tell you!"

"Sure" he replied as he sat down for tea.

She brewed some tea for her and Obanai before pouring some tea in two cups, then passing one to him and sipping her cup of tea. She breathed deeply.

"Iguro-san I have something important to tell you."

"Hm?"

"I... I LIKE YOU!"

Obanai nearly choked on his tea as he spit some out while mitsuri panicked to clean the tea up.

"Kanroji... I don't think... I don't think I can accept your confession because I believe... I like someone else, though I would love if we were to keep being friends because I truly enjoy your company and hanging out with you."

"O-oh... Well then! Who is it! I can help set you two up!"

"Kanroji?  Why would you help me right after I rejected you?"

"Silly! I would never force you to like me back, I respect that you don't share my feelings back, I AM the love hashira after all, I'll do anything to make sure my friend is happy!"

"Thank you Kanroji.."

"Tell me who the lucky girl is iguro-san!!"

"It's... It's.. not a girl"

"Oh? TELL ME WHO THEY ARE THEN!!"

"You're not mad it's not a girl? That I'm not straight?"

"Of course not!!"

"Thank you, again, I think I might have a crush on Y/n..."

"Oh? L/n-san? Y'know there are some rumors that say he has a crush on you, but no body really believes it since people find same sex relationships a sin."

"Hm.."

"Now- here's what you're going to do iguro-san!!"

-time skip to few days later(again, I apologize)

Your pov:

"Obanai Invited me out to eat, he needed to tell me something very important and urgent as said on the letter he sent from his crow, I wondered what had happened, I hope it's nothing bad" Y/n had thought to himself as he walked over to the place Obanai had told him. There he saw a beautiful tree on a hill with a picnic blanket (idk) next to the tree where obanai stood with a basket of food in his hand. 

"Y/n, over here!"

"Coming!!"

Obanai waved Y/n over and they both say down on the blanket to eat their food. Whilst eating Y/n couldn't help but wonder what was so important but needed to be said after they ate.

"Y/n, I have something important to tell you"

"Hm?"

"I... I... Have feelings for you, I will respect you if you don't accept and return them, I hope that of you don't accept my feelings we can still stay as best friends and comrades." 

"I love you too, Obanai."

"Really? You're serious?"

Y/n quickly leaned in and pushed away his bangs and kissed his forehead causing Obanai to blush deeply under his mask.

"Does that answer you?"

Yeah..."

"I love you, alot."

"I love you too..."


Extra: 

Mitsuri was watching through a bush as a wing woman for Obanai to see if it worked. "KYAAA!! IT WORKED!! SO CUTE!!" she thought to herself. She was using all her might to prevent herself from squealing out loud and disturbing their romance


Woo!! Okay! My first ever one shot and story! All criticism is appreciated as long as it's not hateful! Tell me how I did!
