Senjuro was your arranged husband.

After Kyojurou's death, Senjuro was the only one to continue the Rengoku clan. Even at a young age, where he didn't even hit puberty yet, he had to marry. And wow, what a coincidence. You were the girl he was in love with. After all, he was so in love, since knowing you. You were so cute, adorable and pretty. And since you two understood eachother the best, you had to marry him. He agreed. Yet guilt started to eat him alive when he saw the sadness on you face. That you would belong to him. His wife. Did he even deserve you? You were such a soft hearted, cute and loving child. He knew, he didn't even deserve to call you his. But here you two were now, married all of a sudden. You were always so happy. And he took that away from you.

Senjuro knew how scared you were at the thought of having children. Despite knowing how the purpose of this marriage was to have kids, he told you you guys didn't need to have some. The relief on your face, that sweet smile..it made him feel horrible. Once you hit puberty, you two would for sure need children. Just..how could he tell that to you? When he was already a teenager, and you just hit puberty too, his guilt became worse. He had to take that innocence he loved the most about you away.

It had to happen. Senjuro knew it, he'd knock you up. He just couldn't tell you he'd do it.

When at night time, you were in the futon you and Senjuro slept at, he came in too. But as soon as he got in, he locked the Shoji. Before you could even ask why, he got on top of you. The confusion, the fear on your face as he did so..he could feel his heart breaking into pieces.That's when it happened. That night, it was the worse one you ever had. Just some pathetic movements he did, you were already crying, begging him to stop. He couldn't. He had to wait until he came inside you, so his cum would fill your womb. But the pain, it was undurable. He was doing what he knew would be so damn traumatic for you.

✧

That night left you pregnant. 9 months of your pregnancy were the worst months in your life. Your stomach kept getting bigger, to the point at the 7. month, you couldn't move, stay in your futon all the time. And all Senjuro felt was guilt. Not happiness and excitement because he'd have a child soon.

Only..sorrow and guilt.

✧

After those painful 9 months, you finally gave birth. It was traumatic. Blood everywhere, your pained screams and cries, and Senjuro who had to watch all the scene, holding your trembling hand. Yet after some hours, there it was. You pushed a beautiful, healthy baby out. A boy. Now, Hikaru Rengoku. Hikaru was quite adorable, or so Senjuro though. But you..just couldn't love Hikaru, and that pained him. How could you even? You were right. That kid only caused you pain, nothing else. But Senjuro..it pained him. He just..wanted you three to be a small, happy family. Which would probably never happen now.

It was another boring, quiet night. Senjuro came home from training, seeing you on the futon you shared with him, Hikaru on his small crib. Damn. You looked so..sad and dull. Nothing was left of the once happy, cheerful you. Senjuro sighed. He was the cause of all this. Yet to make you feel better, he forced a smile, coming inside. Seeing Hikaru on his crib, he smiled. Such a cute sight. Yet..a reminder of your pain. Seeing the little baby boy asleep, he looked over at you, not even looking at him, excited since he came back. You always were, jumping in his arms. Yet not anymore. Quietly, Senjuro laid down on the futon on his side, placing a hand, his rather rough palm on your waist. Seeing you not even flinch at his touch anymore, just..stay like that. You were tired. So, so tired. All because of him. Senjuro looked down in shame and sadness, yet having a small smile to reassure you as he pulled you into a hug from behind, your back pressed against his chest as his voice was gentle and quiet, yet..sad.

We are..such a happy family, {{user}}..

You were anything but happy, and he knew it.
