Hello! Could I please have hcs for Kagaya with a fem s/o who trains guide dogs and gives him a seeing eye dog as her love confession to him? Like "I care for you and want to help you in any way because I love you"? Fluff galore welcomed. Thanks!
This is the most adorable, wholesome request I’ve ever gotten and I definitely didn’t make it any justice, I’m so very sorry ;-; I love seeing so many Oyakata-sama requests though! This man deserves more love. Also, I’m not really familiar with this kind of work, so some of this is probably pretty inaccurate. I apologize in advance! Feel totally free to correct me
Slightly shaky hands pet the small dog’s head for the millionth time in fifteen minutes, but the black pup didn’t seem to mind one bit; she wagged her fluffy tail slowly, eyes closed in a half asleep state. She was sitting on the tatami floor, the fur ball resting on her legs as they waited for her new owner to arrive. Said man had no idea of this, though.
The pup was definitely one of the best dogs she’d ever had the pleasure to train; she was so smart, loving and attentive. The idea of training a dog for Kagaya had slipped into her mind as soon as his vision started deteriorating, and when she saw the black puppy for the first time, she just knew she was the one. So there she was, after a whole year of training Aiko, wearing her heart on her sleeve.
The door slid open not too long after, and the head of the demon slayers walk in accompanied by a mizunoto, who held his hand as she guided the man into the room.
He sat in front of her while throwing her an apologetic smile. After making sure Oyakata-sama was comfortably settled down, the young demon slayer brought a tea pot and a pair of cups before bowing down and excusing herself out of the room. “My apologies, (y/n). Have you been waiting for too long?”
“Not at all, don’t worry.” She rushed to assure him, earning a little chuckle from the black haired male. It was the kind of sound that could literally make her heart skip a beat.
The pair had been friends since their early teenage years, when Kagaya was still able to see and their lives seemed so much easier. They had been together through thin and thick, supporting each other no matter what. She was next to him when he became the head of the demon slayers, held him tightly between her arms the first time one of the kids had los their life while on duty, accompanied him to visit the graves of his beloved children. In turn, Kagaya stood with her when she had to take on the family business at a young age, leaving everything else behind to deal with the responsibilities she had suddenly obtained; he was always there to remind her to take care of herself when the weight of her duties was a little too heavy on her shoulders.
She carefully poured a cup of tea and handed it over to Kagaya, who thanked her quietly with a nod. Silence had settled between the two, not an awkward one but pleasant instead. She stared at him for a while; even despite his sickness, the man could only be described as stunning. His delicate features and gentle demeanor, as well as the sharp contrast between his onyx hair and his snowy like skin gave him an almost unreal look. She had been harboring this feeling for years, and she just couldn’t do it anymore. She had to tell him; she felt that, for some reason, it was now or never. She almost didn’t want to break the calm and serene atmosphere, but she knew she had to. After one last deep breath to fill her lounges with courage, she called out Kagaya’s name. He replied with a hum, letting her know she had his whole attention.
“Can you hold your hand out for me?” He set his tea down, reaching his hand out to her without questioning; a proof of just how much he trusted her. She took his hand, delighting herself with the soft, slightly cold skin for a couple seconds before gently bringing it closer to the pup on her legs.
“Kagaya, this little one’s name is Aiko. I-I trained her for you.” Oyakata-sama was speechless for what seemed to be the first time ever. Of course he knew about his friend’s job, and had even pondered on the idea of asking her for a dog when the time felt right, but he didn’t expect this kind of surprise from her. The puppy sniffled his fingertips for a couple seconds before tentatively giving them a couple licks, causing him to chuckle.
“Aiko, huh? Child of love?” He murmured quietly as she placed Aiko on his lap, the name choice not going unnoticed. The fluffy creature happily let out a little bark, completely awake by this point, tail waving around uncontrollably as her new owner pet her head. She looked away, cheeks burning as she begun explaining.
“It’s… a reflection of how I feel. I want to help you. I want to share your hardships, bare them for you… I want to be by your side forever.” She said, her voice merely a whisper. When she looked up again, a sweet smiled adorned Kagaya’s face.
He reached for her hand, which she held out for him right away. Kagaya brought it to his face, placing a gentle kiss on the back of her hand and making her blush even deeper.
“I’ve always, always loved you, (y/n).”
