AN: This a peice of major fluff. I was just in a romantic mood and thought about the question. I thought it would be absoultely adorable with this couple.
Ps: this is mild shonen ai, that means two GUYS love each other. If you don't like, then what the hell are you searching this pairing for?
Disclamer: Unfortunatly I do not own bleach. If I did no one would read it becase of exesive violence and yaoi.
Why do you love me?
One of the most common questions that people ask themselves after their told "I love you" is "Why. Why do you love me?" Sometimes the question is never asked out loud. Other times the question is the undoing of the loving couple because of a wrong answer.
You can imagine the amount of worry that simple question caused Hanataro Yamada. For weeks the notion buzzed lazily around in Hanataro's mind like a wasp that could sting at any minute. Ever since he and Byakuya had realized they loved each other and decided to spend their lives together he had worried over the tiniest things. Would Byakuya get mad if his trademark clumsiness broke that expensive vase of lilies that held a place of honor under the portrait of his late wife, Hisane? Would he hold Hanataro's fear of thunder storms in contempt? Would he? Would he?
This latest question was the worst of all. It meant much, much more then any of his other useless worries. It was the reason Byakuya chose to put up with Hanataro in his life at all. It made it hard for him to sleep at night, even enclosed in his lovers arms. And the fact was his worry showed. Byakuya always knew when Hanataro was all tied up in knots about something. Usually he had to ask his shy young lover what was wrong and then smooth away the problem with patient logic. But this time he wasn't completely prepared for the question the little healer asked.
"I… I know you love me Kuya, and I know I definitely love you but…. I've been thinking……. Why?"
Byakuya blinked. "What do you mean why Hana?" A small glimmer of unease flickerd in the small boys chest.
"I mean why do you love me?"
The older shinagami thought, it as a very simple and loaded question. He looked into the large pleading eyes of the smaller man and found the answer was just as simple as the question.
"I love you Hana, I love the way your smile lights up my heart every time. I love the way you care too much to let anyone who's even remotely hurt to walk away without attempting to heal them. I love the way you can make me smile even on the worst of days. But most of all…"
Byakuya's voice trailed off as he though about every time he had been content to just sit around with Hanataro, not doing anything much. Maybe reading, talking, or just enjoying each others company.
"I love you Hana, because you are you. You are my Hanataro, and nothing will ever change that." Byakuya smiled at the happiness that sparkled in Hanataro's eyes and kissed him ever so softly on the lips.
"I love you because you are just who you want to be, my Kuya" He replied shyly, returning the kiss with one of his own.
They spent the rest of the evening in each others arms, just content to be with one another.
