"Tanjirล!" Zenitsu's voice rang around the estate's premises as usual, as he ran towards the male sat up beside a certain (h/c) haired girl.
"Zenitsu?" He called out in response, before fully facing the panting man whose currently trying to catch his breath.
"Che-chestnuts!" He blurted out, as though that was enough for them to understand.
"Chestnuts?"
Zenitsu furrowed his thick eyebrows in annoyance before finally lifting his head up to look at the confused male.
"We need Chestnuts for the pie!" He reasoned out with a slight shriek.
He meant the English pie Aoi was baking this afternoon for their 3PM tea break.
This made the female laugh beside the confused boy before turning to face Zenitsu, a sweet smile adorning her beautiful face.
"We'll get it for you. No worries." She wave a dismissing hand before looking back at the red head whose currently staring at her unconsciously.
"We'll need it in a few minutes since it also needed to be crushed." Zenitsu reminded before sprinting back to help or rather pester and annoy the poor blue haired attendant in her work.
"Alright... The chestnuts will be there in no time."
After Zenitsu left, the girl grab Tanjirล's wrist hoisting him up from his comfortable position. "And you'll accompany me."
"...e-eh?"
The flustered boy didn't have enough time to respond as she finally drag him towards the nearby forest encasing the estate. For sure there are grown fruits, herbs, even spices that has sprouted there over the years.
Along the way the male was uncharacteristically silent, letting the girl drag him on some random trees to check its bearing. But unluckily for them they couldn't spot any chestnut. All they can spot are tons and tons of raspberries littering around.
(Y/n) slumped on a nearby fallen log, too tired to even sat up as girly as she should, she's glad she's wearing pants instead of skirt. It's just comfortable that way.
With a sigh she protruded her lips slightly in annoyance.
Tanjirล noticed this almost immediately and couldn't help but let a smile tug at his lips playfully. Her demeanour changes so drastically, compared to her energetic self awhile ago.
Tanjirล sat himself beside the girl, propping both his elbows against his knees, he crane his neck to slightly peer at her face.
She looks upset.
He don't like it. Not one bit.
"I'm pretty sure Aoi, even the others wouldn't mind if we suggest raspberries instead.." He started, giving her one of his gentle smile. But unfortunately for him, (y/n)'s eyes was still casted downwards as though finding the soil itself interesting to look at.
"(Y/n)?" He called out.
But the girl never replied back nor move an inch from her spot.
This made the poor boy worried as he stood up and instantly went to crouch in front of her.
"(Y/n)?" He called once again, his voice soft, gentle. Eyes cautiously peering at the girl's face.
On the other hand, the girl in question tried her best to stiffle her laugh, but failed to do so. The male was confused but he never had the chance to ask her as to why when her hands flew up to cup his unguarded cheeks.
She grinned,
"Got you."
"W-what are you doing, (y/n)?" The flustered male asks, his words slightly incoherent as his puffed cheeks forbid him to move his mouth fully.
"You're so adorable, do you know that?"
Heat rises up to form a blush against Tanjirล's cheeks as he soaked up her words. She can be pretty blatant at times, both in a sense that it can be offending and rather embarasing to hear. But that's where her words bear such unmistakable truth.
Although she can be pretty careless, and expressive. Something that Tanjirล couldn't pinpoint well.
However, she also acts on impulse, and works righteously on things she'll find injustice. Something that rather or somehow piqued his interest.
But hearing her say those words from her mouth, depicted a different meaning to blossom from his mind.
A thought of someone finding him adorable?
Almost impossible for him to agreed to. He never once heard someone called him adorable much less praise him from his looks alone.
And hearing her say this, come off as something new to his ears that he just didn't know what to respond.
"..y-you think?"
He wants to punch himself right now, dig his fingers on his head and rip his hair out of frustration.
What kind of response was that?
He thought, silently preparing himself for her answer in return. She must have found it weird for him to get such a stupid response.
What should your response be if someone conplimented you? Of course you'll thank them. Not ask a question.
But the girl simply let out a tinkling of laughter before pressing both of her palms further up on his cheeks to squish them even more,
"Yeah! And you should know that!'
His face exploded in crimson, cheeks heating up in the process. His heart was thumping so loud against his chest, he's quite afraid it'll burst out any second.
Why are you telling him this?
Are you trying to end the poor boy's life by simply stating how adorable he was?
Such simple words, but it never failed to make the male's heart flutter with immense happiness.
How does she even had this effect on him?
" (y-y/n)... I'm.."
He was cut off short when the female lean down to press a sweet kiss against his forehead.
"Save that, let's go get those raspberries then!"
Once she let go of the male's cheeks,
he fainted.
"T-Tanjirล!"
Things to consider when you're complimenting or expressing your adoration for Kamado Tanjirล.
Don't do it so suddenly.
Just don't.
His poor heart can only take too much.
If you told him how he meant the whole world for you,
he'll probably cry.
Please take care of his poor kind heart.
