Chapter 1

"Shoot to the death, Shunsou" you heard Ichimaru-taichou say.

You were standing behind a near building, hiding your riatsu so that the two fighting -- Ichimaru-taichou and Hitsugaya-taichou would not feel your presence. Earlier on, you were walking when you felt two great riatsus and went to investigate. You were happy with your findings. You always loved watching battle, so long as everybody turned out okay, or at least didnt lose a limb or die. Also, you were happy to find, that Momo was passed out on the ground. You hated that bitch.

When you were still both living in rukongai, you had loved Toushiro, and you had given him the nickname Whitey. Hinamori had stolen him from you. Just because you were sisters didnt mean she could just push you around. You no longer loved Hitsugaya, however, because you had lost the want and need to love.

You just really loved a heated battle, even if it didnt involve soul slayers or anything, even just an argument. Realizing you got lost in thought; your attention went back to the battle. Aw, damn! It was over. And Gin was attempting to kill Hinamori? But Matsumoto-san was there, blocking him. Augh! Oh well, Matsumoto was your friend. You didnt really want Hinamori to DIE, but you still hated her. A little spilt blood wouldnt hurt anybody.

Looking over to Gin, who had retracted his zanpaku to back into its original form and was putting it back in the sheath, you noticed how his eyes were open a slit, like when he had said shoot to the death. You then realized he was really sexy.

NO! STOP IT!!!! You thought. I CANNOT LOVE! NOT AFTER GODDAMNED MOMO!!!!. Snapping out of thought, you go up to go, just as you were about to flash step, somebody ran into you, really hard.

"Ouch!" you yelped, falling to the ground.

"Well, whats a girlie doin around here at this time?" you heard. Getting up and turning around, you noticed his voice. Gin Ichimaru.

"Um, well, I was walking, and then you kind of ran straight into me and made me fall down, Taichou." you said, hoping that the dark night hid your immense blush.

"Oh, really? Well, Ill have ta walk ya back to your quarters, wont I? Dont want ya ta get hurt, do I, girlie?"

"Er, that wont be necessary, taichou, I know where it is."

"Nah, I'll do it anyway. I haven't got anything better ta do."

"Oh, um, arigato gozimas, taichou. I live over there." You said, pointing towards your home.

"Say, what company are ya in?" Gin asked.

"I'm in the 6th squad, taichou, 3rd seat." you replied,

"Well, pleased ta meet ya, 3rd seat. Have ya got a name?"

"Hai. Its Yuna."

"Now have ya got any relatives, Yuna?"

"Yeah, my sister Momo."

Gin stopped smiling, but only for a moment.

"But, you know, I hate her, and all." And then Gin started to smile again.

"Oh, and why is that?"

"Because she made me incapable of loving another." Gin looked surprised at this, and said,

"I could change that for ya." It was your turn to look surprised.

"Wh-what?" you stuttered out, giving him a weird look.

"Ya heard me, didn't ya?" Gin said. stopping.

"Well, yes, but... I mean, nobody's ever... WHAT?"

"Augh, nevermind." Gin said, turning away.

"Um, okay, Taicho..." you muttered, and then quickened the pace. "At least there's nice weather." you said smiling, as you always did around him, because when another person was smiling, you always felt complied to do the same, and trying to make small talk.

Just as you said that, a loud thunder clanged in the distance and about a half send later came a slight drizzle.

"Well, speak of the devil." Gin said, smiling even more briliantly.

"Yeah, gosh. I should just keep my mouth shut, shouldn't I?"

"Yeah ya should."

"Hey!" you said, teasingly pushing him in on the arm. The akwardness of earlier had shook off, and even through his creepy demeanor, you somehow felt comfortable around him. The rain fell harder.

"Hey!" Gin said, also teasing, and pushing back. "I thought that I was a captain and you were a little 3rd seat of the 6th company"

"Oi!" you yelped. "That was hard! AND the 6th company rocks HARD!!!!! Even with an emotionless captain!"

"Hah ha!" Gin laughed. So did you. This was the first time in forever you remeber laughing with anybody. It actually felt kind of... nice.

"Hey. Where'd you say your place was?" Gin questioned, suddenly. "Uummm... I kind of can't... remember. I lost track of it and I've never been in this part of Siretei before, so... I don't know. Like, at all."

"Really? I thought every shinigami knew each part of here like the back of their hand."

"Well, to tell all truth, I haven't one idea what the back of my hand looks like." you said, laughing a bit. By now, the both of you were drenched. "Eeww... my clothes are sticking to me and I smell nasty... I need to find home, quick."

"Well, If you can't find your's... I've always got extra room to spare."

"Uummm... okay. I suppose. Are you sure, taichou?"

"Yes, I'm sure. And stop callin' me 'taichou'. It's gettin' on my nerves. I ain't your captain anyhow."

"Er, okay, tai-, I mean, Ichimaru."

"Just call me Gin."

"Okay, um, Gin."

"Good."

"Soooo... Gin. Where IS your house?"

"It's over here." he said, motioning for you to flash step. Flash stepping through the rain was like the feeling of a bellyflop from 10 feet up but on your face. You hid a bit behind Gin while stepping.

"And... we're here." Gin said, stepping up onto a very nice-looking porch.

"Uumm.. thank you, t-, Gin. I'll, um. Wait. where can I sleep?"

"Right there." he said, motioning at his bed.

"But, Taichou!" you said, astonished, and forgetting not to call him 'taichou' "That's absurd! I can't take your bed!"

"Well then, I'll just sleep there with ya. There's an extra robe of mine, dry, over in there." Gin motioned over to a room. You blushed at the thought of sleeping in the same bed, even a big one, with Gin.

"Um, thank you, but I'll just sleep on the floor."

"Whatever you'd like, mi lady." Gin said, stripping down into only boxers right infront of you.

"ACK! you shouted, and quick lept as fast as you could into the other room. Pulling on his robes, you went and layed down on the floor.

"Um, goodnight, Gin.' you said.

"Night" he replyed, and turned out the lights. You glanced at a clock and it said 2:56. Attempting to fall asleep, you couldn't, because of the uncompfortable floor. At about 3:45 you just got up and snuggled up to Gin and fell asleep, quick as ever.
