"You're so cute!" You say, still holding Senjuro.

Senjuro chuckled, clearly enjoying your affection as he sat on the engawa, nestled between you and his brother. The sound of his laughter was like music to your ears, a melody that resonated deep within your heart. His eyes sparkled with mirth, reflecting the pure happiness that radiated from him.

"Am I cute too, my love?" Kyojuro asked, giving you puppy dog eyes. His expression was so endearing that you couldn't help but smile at him. His innocent question tugged at your heartstrings, making you realize just how much you loved this man.

However, you only stared at him blankly before returning your attention back to the mini-Rengoku. Yes, Kyojuro is cute. Actually, cute isn't the right word to describe him at the moment. He's more in the "hot" category. Senjuro is a child, so he's the cute one as you continue to hug him.

"Hmm, it would've seem you've stolen my sweet Flame's heart, Otōto?" Kyojuro teased, rustling Senjuro's hair.

Senjuro blushed and gave a bashful smile. "Sorry, Oniichan, I didn't mean to. But you were right about what you said about (Name)-chan!"

You perked at this, "oh? And what exactly did Oniichan say about me?" Your curiosity piqued, eager to know what Kyojuro's been telling Senjuro behind your back.

"That you were kind and pretty like a thousand wisteria trees!" Senjuro replied.

You blushed slightly before glancing over at your fiance, raising a questionable brow, "seriously? A thousand wisteria trees?"

Kyojuro gave you an sheepish look while playfully rolling his eyes, "well, to me you are!" He says.

You sighed then smiled, "your big brother is a hopeless romantic, Senjuro! A big sack of cheese!" You say.

Your unusual comment made the young flame-haired boy laugh, for he'd never heard that phase before.

"Well, I'm most certainly a proud sack of cheese!" Kyojuro boasted comically.

"And that makes you, my lovely cracker!" He added.

"Oh, you did not just call me a flat, dry piece of baked bread!" You replied, making a pouty face.

"Yes, and together.. WE'RE DELICIOUS!" Kyojuro exclaims with passion, his eyes comically twinkling like stars.

His dumb remark made you blush in embarrassment as you growled before clenching a fist.

"YOU'RE AN IDIOT IF YOU THINK FOR A SECOND WE'RE CALLING OUR RELATIONSHIP CHEESE AND CRACKERS!"

"CHEESE AND CRACKERS, THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF DELICIOUSNESS!"

"YOU'RE IN DENILE, WE'RE NOT CHEESE AND CRACKERS!"

"UMAI!" Kyojuro exclaimed, cheerfully.

"Shut up!"

Senjuro giggled, seeing you two bricker playfully. The two of you were so perfect together! There was no doubt in his mind that the two of you were meant to be. Never in his life, had he seen his big brother so smitten. As he watched the two of you interact, he couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart at the sight of such genuine happiness. It was clear to him that you brought out the best in his brother, and he was grateful to have you in his family.
