Definitely Maybe...( Continuation of Don't know Maybe a little bit)
Chapter one: Screaming, kids, jealousy
(Grimmjow's P.O.V.)
Screaming, screaming and more screaming. That is all I hear from the other room. Mumbling to myself about how I just want a little more sleep, just even five more minutes, I know I won't get it. They are the bane to my existence and my existence is thanks to my wife. Walking down the hall I see her in the kitchen scrambling around our three children. Yes children. Yes I am married. And though there are days I want to pull my hair out, punch a wall or curse whatever kami may be out there I wouldn't change this moment any other way. Orihime my wife, my life, holding our youngest son, while wrestling the twins to get dressed for the day. I watch and think back to how it all got to this point.
It was right after the hollow attack where I got knocked on my ass, down for the count and guess who saved me? My warrior goddess of a wife. At the time she was just barely a friend. Okay I can't really go that far. She was my friend. The only real friend I'd ever had whether we are in Hueco Mundo back in my Espada days or now being the protector of Karakura town. Either way she was my best friend and after the fight, well I realized I was maybe a little bit in love with her. Though like hell I'd ever tell her that. Though it was funny that she could make me do thinks I never thought were possible. Woah, mind out of the gutter, I do not mean in the sexual sense although yeah there too. But I had no problem being sweet and kind to her. But only to her. Now there in lies one of my major problems: Her friends.
They are such a pain in the ass it's not even funny. When the strawberry, the giant, and the pencil were done with college they all decided to move back to Karakura stating that they still had a job here to protect their family and friends. Ugh, stupid reasons to be sure. They knew I was here, they knew I could protect their loved ones and the people of this town. Nope, I knew it was a bullshit excuse for them to come back. Especially the strawberry because he wanted what I had. Well to be sure as fuck I wasn't gonna give her up to him.
Anyway, when the Quincy War happened all of the ex-Espada Arrancars came together to help stop it. Surprisingly it was me who helped Harribel, since she is the Queen of Hueco Mundo, see reason and help. Just as surprising was being able to convince the Shinigamis to resurrect the dead Espadas to help in the battle. Needless to say it was a big mess of blood and death, the usual for a war, though in the end everything for the most part turned out fine. Because of our help and claiming allegiance with Soul Society all the Espada were granted amnesty. Now most of them except for a select few who stayed in Hueco Mundo ( Starrk and the pipsquek, Harribel, her three bitches,Baigon and his crew) are here. Truthfully that is not here nor there.
It was soon after the war that I had a problem. Ichigo and Orihime were talking. She was smiling. SMILING! At him. Oh hell yes I was mad. By then I knew I loved her, but just hadn't gotten around to telling her yet. So there we were at a celebration in Soul Society thrown by the new Head Captian Shunsui Kyoraku who wanted a big celebration to honor the fallen and uplift the victorious. Not surprisingly there was lots of drinking, music and dancing. Well, Ichigo and Orihime were drinking and laughing, smiling while they talked to each other. I watched the whole thing and it pissed me off.
I got so pissed I went over to her. Okay, I'll admit I was drinking and drinking a lot. I stormed over like a crazy person (which by the way I am not as crazy as I use to be. I've gotten more tact) except for when I saw this. I stormed over and...
(third person view- Five years ago)
"What the fuck do you think you are doing so close to him?!" Grimmjow yelled loudly. Of course the music was switching when he yelled and a bunch of Shinigami eyes were on him and the couple. Ichigo glared while Orihime gasped and looked at Grimmjow her eyes wide. Ichigo pulled Orihime back to him.
"Grimmjow what is the issue?" Ichigo said, his voice having a slight edge to it.
Grimmjow, not caring whatsoever about Ichigo's tone, went over to take Orihime, too her hand and glared at Ichigo with murder in his eyes.
"Don't touch what is mine strawberry. Hands off and to yourself."
Grimmjow then led Orihime out of the area away from her friends and looked into her eyes. He was warring within himself to figure out what to tell her, how to tell her how he felt. Orihime beat him to the punch and pulled away from him.
"Damn it Grimmjow! Ichigo wasn't doing anything wrong. Why did you just do that, you humiliated me."
She started to storm off away from him, heading back to her friends. Grimmjow paniced that he was going to lose her to either Ulquiorra, the Quincy or the strawberry. He didn't know at the time that he didn't need to worry about the Quincy since he'd fallen in love with the lieutenant of the twelth divison, Nemu.
Also unknown was that Ulquiorra had the hots for the black-haired tomboy girl, Orihime's best friend Tatsuki, while Ichigo was unaware of a girl who liked him: Nelliel.
Grimmjow was not thinking clearly about what he did next. His spiritual pressure rose and he grabbed Orihime into the air. She looked around briefly about to call out for his help when he turned her to face him and she gasped in surprise. He was in his released form.
Looking into her eyes he said through clenched teeth, "Damn it Orihime. I need to talk to you. I know I am an ass. I know I am stubborn. I know I curse ,which I am working on by the way, but I need to tell you something and I don't know how."
Orihime tried thinking of what to say to him to make him feel better and she gently ran her fingers through his long blue hair. He purred without caring about his pride, he knew she was aware of how much he enjoyed it when she did that.
He sighed but she spoke softly nuzzling his chest, "Grimmjow, whatever you have to say I'll listen. You know this by now."
He just held her tighter as he moved all the way out of the Sereiti. Finding a patch of grass he set her down gently and started pacing back and forth.
He growled, his frustration level growing as he talked, "I don't like the way he looks at you. I don't like how you smile at him or how he held you when you danced earlier. Yeah I saw it, so don't deny it. So I gotta ask…Are you leaving me? Are you still in love with him, or with Ulquiorra? If you are, with either of them, I won't leave without a fight."
Orihime stood up to stand in front of him and stop his pacing back and forth.
"Hey Grimmjow stop, you're making my neck hurt with all this pacing. Now listen, yes I danced with Ichigo, yes I smiled at him, and all the other stuff is true, minus two things. You are a big, stubborn, protective fool you know that? I don't love Ichigo the way I use to, the way I did before you decided to align with Soul Society. And you are a big fool if you think I want to leave you. Just because I talk to them doesn't mean I love you any less. So calm down all right?"
Grimmjow pulled her close, hugging her tight. He kissed her hair, running his fingers through it and undid the weird updo she had it in. Orihime leaned up and kissed him gently before asking softly, "What is wrong Grimmjow. Really this time? You've never acted that way before, at least not this extreme."
He took a deep breath and buried his face against her neck to whisper, "I don't want to lose you, Orihime. I love you."
Orihime looked up to him and smiled the most beautiful smile he'd ever seen. She giggled as she pulled him down for a kiss. When she breaks it she says, "I love you too Grimmjow. I have for a while now you silly protective kitty."
(now back to Grimmjow's point of view)
Screaming pierces into my head breaking me out of my memories. Looking over I see the twins; a boy and a girl. They are now 3 years old. They are a big handful and keep us busy. Another piercing cry breaks through, making me cringe. My youngest son, going on two years old, is cutting teeth so he gets cranky at times.
Right now it's "I want mommy" time not "I want to share mommy" time. So here I am, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, the former 6th Espada, a father of twin three years old and a two year old son. I go over and help by grabbing the little one and hugging him close as she finishes with the twins. Orihime has to work today so I am with the kids. The plan for the day is to visit their "aunts, uncles". Today will be a long day.
Later Orihime has managed to get to work and our three kids are all packed up and in the van (which I still can't believe she convinced me to get. It's one thing to be a dad; it's another thing to drive a van). Our first stop is to see their Epsada aunts and uncles. As far as I know it will be Ulquiorra, Szayel, Yammy, and Neliel (who I desperately hope is in her adult form. Otherwise I am going to have to deal with four kids). I wish Orihime could be here, she is so much better at this. I love my kids, but it seems to me that all kids love one parent more than the other. Before pulling out of the drive way I go through my checklist: Kids buckled, check. Toys and extra clothes, check. Snacks, check. And here we go.
