Ice and Fire
AN: A favorite pairing of mine. ^^ I couldn't resist writing this. A little short, but whatever. It was worth writing.
Begin~
Kuchiki Byakyuya and Kurosaki Ichigo. They are complete polar opposites.
Byakuya is cold, like ice. He is noble and proud. He lives his life by rules, a restricted man. However, he is dangerous when released, like an avalanche. His entire life, he has been told that it was for the pride of the Kuchiki. He fought to upkeep the honor of one of the four noble houses of Seireitei. His way of life existed for his honor. Without it, his existence was useless. Without honor, he was nothing. Or so he believed.
Ichigo is like the fire. He is fiery and passionate. He cannot be contained, especially that mouth of his. Rude and loud, he brings trouble wherever he goes. It's as if he's a magnet for chaos. Where he walks, there are no rules. Every single one of them is broken before him. He doesn't stop to think about his actions, acting on impulse with no hesitations. He lives to protect those he cares deeply for- his friends and family. That's all he is for, right?
Both harbor grudging respect for the other. Pride and honor, they both fight for. They thought they would be alright, fighting for others. They were wrong. Without it, they were empty; they were lacking something. After they met did they finally realize what they were missing.
Ice and fire. They cannot mix. One quenches the other and the other melts it. But strangely, that's what they did to each other. Ichigo was the first in centuries to melt his cold exterior. Byakuya was the first person that Ichigo truly felt calm around. Though their relationship started out shaky, it blossomed into something beautiful. Ichigo taught Byakuya emotion and Byakuya taught Ichigo tranquility. For the first time in their lives, they felt truly free. Ice and fire. Normally they do not mix, but this time, there seems to be a rare exception to this rule.
Blah. The End. Fin. Whatever. ^^
