A/N: Okay, well the idea for this fic just randomly popped into my head one day and I started scribbling it down on paper and it came out mostly like this. I've never written Bleach fic before so hopefully this is pretty good.
Btw, like the summary said, this is all from Byakuya's POV.
Enjoy!
I didn't like Kurosaki.
Actually, didn't like was a gross understatement.
I hated Kurosaki.
Other then the fact that he was weak diminutive human, I couldn't really realize why I hated him.
I suppose it could be what Rukia obviously feels for him.
At first I thought it was a silly, childish infatuation.
I thought she felt that way towards Kurosaki because of his striking resemblance to Kaien.
Over time, though, I realized that that was not the case.
She actually did feel something special for that weak human I hated.
Maybe the real reason I hated Kurosaki was because he had been able to protect Rukia when I could not.
I didn't keep my promise to Hisana.
When it was time for Rukia's execution, I was stuck between a rock and hard place.
I had promised Hisana right before she died that I would take care of her little sister, but I had also sworn on my parents' graved that I would never go against the Kuchiki clan again.
I didn't know what to do, so I stood there stupidly when it came time for Rukia to be executed.
By doing that, I felt that I had betrayed Hisana.
Which, technically I did.
And that hurt me almost as much as when she had died.
It was when Kurosaki appeared to save her that I realized he reciprocated Rukia's feelings.
So it wasn't exactly a surprise when Kurosaki came to ask for my consent to marry Rukia.
There was a part of me that wanted to tell him no, that I thought Rukia could do much better than him.
But I realized that that would have been a lie.
Kurosaki had been willing to go through all hell and back for Rukia.
I had done the same for Hisana.
No one had ever approved of me marrying Hisana.
But I ignored them all and followed my heart, anyway.
I had a feeling that Kurosaki would've done exactly the same if I had told him no.
So I agreed to let him marry Rukia.
When it came time for them to have their first child, they were both absolutely elated.
I wasn't sure how I felt.
I was surprised when Rukia came to me one day and asked if I would mind if she named the child Hisana if it turned out to be a girl.
I almost wanted to ask her why she was asking me if I would be fine with it, but I kept my mouth shut.
We both knew why she asked me.
When she did have the child, it was a girl and she did name it Hisana.
The child looked exactly like Rukia. Like Hisana.
If anything, my dislike for Kurosaki slightly deepened.
It was then that I realized that I was actually jealous of him.
I was jealous that he had the family that I would never have.
However, I realized that he was absolutely in love with Rukia would do anything for her. For his child.
Just like I did and would have done for Hisana and our child if we would have ever had one.
I suppose Kurosaki and I really aren't that different.
But that was something I would never admit aloud.
A/N: It was kind of short, but I thought that that would be a good place to end…I didn't want to make it drag on and on. I hope I kept Byakuya in character, though. I tired my best t do that.
