One Day | Urushihara Hanzo x Reader

    Rapidly moving the joystick. Smashing the buttons wildly. Sore thumbs were the only result of this effort because no matter how hard you tried, you still could never beat him.

    
    “Dammit!” you screamed mostly jokingly into the headset when he beat you once again.

    
    No matter how much you practiced when playing alone, your efforts were always in vain. Sure, you got better each time, but still never came close to beating him. If you didn’t know any better, you would’ve thought he was cheating because of how seemingly undefeatable he seemed.

    
    “Maybe next time,” Urushihara said teasingly.

    
    You couldn’t help but smile when you heard his voice come through the headset even though you’ve been hearing the same voice for the past six months. His voice, his face, his personality… All of those were things you loved about him. Video games were definitely a common interest between the two of you. If there was one thing you could change, it would be that you wanted to play all those video games in person with him.

    
    “You want to take a little break?” you asked as you leaned back in your chair comfortably.

    
    “Sure,” was his only reply.

    
    Some fumbling was heard on his end along with the voices of his two roommates that he always complained about. All sounds on his end suddenly cut out letting you know that he had his microphone muted like he usually did whenever his roommates were starting to bug him. Understanding that meant he wouldn’t be talking again for a little bit, you started scrolling through your previous messages with him.

    
    Every awkward attempt of flirting he made in the messages was sprawled across your screen. These attempts made you both giggle and blush at the same time. The awkwardness that basically oozed from him made you like him even more due to your similar nature.

    
    Scrolling up some more, you found the picture of him that he sent. Just looking at it caused a smile to spread across your face. As odd as it seemed, you would sit there and just stare at his picture all day if you could. Maybe it was a good thing then that you weren’t able to see him in person. You were blushing at the thought of how awkward it would be if he caught you staring at him.

    
    Even so, you still couldn’t think of anything you wanted more than just to meet him in person. You wanted to experience how it felt when you hugged, cuddled, or even kissed him. Every day you imagined how nice it would feel to cuddling with him as the two of you played video games together. Just that thought alone made you yearn for his touch even more.

    
    “Hey, I’m back,” he said out of nowhere, shocking you from your thoughts.

    
    “O-oh, hey,” you stuttered quickly.

    
    “Why do you sound so flustered?” he questioned.

    
    You felt your face heat up even more from hearing that question.

    
    “I-I’m not!”

    
    He chuckled softly. “You’re so cute, (Y/N).”

    
    It only took a simple compliment like that to make you feel so much better. If that came from anyone else, it probably wouldn’t have made you feel as happy as it did coming from Urushihara. You fell hard for this purple-haired boy and you didn’t regret it one bit.

    
    “Hey, Urushihara?” you said as you nervously chewed on your bottom lip.

    
    “Yeah?” he asked.

    
    “When… when do you think we’ll be able to finally meet in person?” you asked hesitantly.

    
    It wasn’t something you asked often but due to the somewhat sensitive topic, you still hated mentioning it. There was silence on his end for a few moments and you feared that you had said something wrong.

    
    “I wish I could say soon, but I know that would only be a lie,” he finally said, causing your heart to sink in your chest. “But I also know that one day we will meet in person and that day will be the best one in my life. I’ve never been too interested in interacting with people in person but with you, it’s different. I know it’ll probably be a long time, but I swear that one day we will see each other and I’ll do everything I can to make it the best day of your life.”

    
    You couldn’t help but just sit there and dwell on that for a moment. The thought that you’d have to be away from him for so long was hard to shake, but all the good things he promised were the only things on your mind. The next words you’d say wouldn’t be in the tone of sorrow or even bitterness. The tone would be one of longing but also hope for the future. Your future with Urushihara.

    
    “One day.”
