Nobunaga
It was just after breakfast when he approached you. Youbwere just finishing your cereal, having been distracted by looking for jobs and houses to rent on your phone. You placed your phone on the table as he approached, taking the seat beside you. You smiled warmly at him.
"Good morning, Nobu, I didn't see you at breakfast this morning." Despite losing your job, you still made breakfast for everyone in the morning if they wanted to join you. You liked the company, and it wasn't the Troupe's fault that their leader was a dick.
"Ah, yes, I was preoccupied. Lotus, do you think I could take a moment of your time?" He asked nervously as you raise a brow.
"Of course, what's on your mind?" He fidgeted, eyes lingering on Uvo's form as the hulking man cleaned the dishes. A strange sight, but he'd insisted.
"I was wondering if we could speak alone." He whispered and you processed for a moment.
"Oh, yeah, sure!" You stood, taking your bowl over to Uvo so he could wash it up. You thanked him with a smile, and he flushed softly at the interaction. You looked to Nobu, motioning him to follow you.
"So, what's on your mind?" You asked once back to your room and in private.
"Well, I've been meaning to bring this up for a while, but I just never got the time, or didn't know how to put things into words and-" He stopped rambling as you placed your hands on his own, smiling up at him.
"It's okay, you're telling me now, aren't you? Just take your time." You smiled and he collected himself, taking a breath.
"I know you and Uvogin have some sort of chemistry, and I love the man as if he were my brother... but I'm always looking out for other people's interests and wellbeing instead of my own... and well, I want to be selfish with just this one thing." He paused and you looked at him with confusion.
"I can't ignore how I feel anymore, I'm in love with you, and now that you're no longer working for the Troupe, it feels like, perhaps this is the only chance I will have to tell you how I truly feel. I can't keep putting my feelings aside for others. I love you, Y/N, and despite how the other Troupe members feel about you, I'm hoping that perhaps my feeling are not one sided? I understand if you and Uvogin share something... Your connection with him is something I've never seen before... But I'm hoping perhaps the time we spent together allowed you to harbour feelings for me as well?" He looked away shyly, blushed arising on his cheekbones and you moved to cup his cheek, turning him to look at you once more.
"Youre such a big dope." You chuckled and he looked confused for a moment.
"You and Uvo are so similar it hurts. He told me that you were struggling with your feelings, that's why we had been spending time together, so we could think of a way to push you into saying how you felt." You chuckled and Nobunaga let out a relieved sigh.
"So you feel the same as I do?" He asked and you nodded.
"How could I not? Youre sweet, caring, and such a gentleman." You hummed, grinning up at him.
"I don't have much, but I'm willing to give it all to you." He confessed and you shook your head.
"We're in this together. Neither of us have much, but let's build something together. How does that sound?" Nobunaga nodded quickly before pulling you into a kiss, hugging you close to his chest.
You breathed in his scent, closing your eyes as you relaxed into him. Somehow, you knew you'd made the right choice. You felt secure and safe in his arms, despite anything that might happen.
