A/N: Warning: This is a SLASH fic. This is a drabble starring Hitsugaya Toushirou and Kurosaki Ichigo. Ichigo eagerly awaits his boyfriend's visit on a very special day... As usual, the lovely characters of Bleach do not belong to me but to their esteemed creator. ENJOY!

Lick

Kurosaki Ichigo was not a morning person, at least not before he had his dose of adorable captain.

'Shiro-chan…'

Which was why he was never a morning person. Hitsugaya Toushirou, said adorable captain, was always missing from Earth, his responsibilities in Soul Society keeping him there.

'Shiro-chan…'

But, it was his birthday, the day that Toushirou had promised to visit his boyfriend, the day that Ichigo had been anticipating eagerly. He knew that his boyfriend would have arrived before dawn, preferring to return to him under cover of the night rather than in broad daylight. But, checking seemed like such a difficult option. He was too lazy to open his eyes, let alone get out of bed. So, he did only other thing he knew: call Toushirou's abhorred nickname and wait for a reply.

'Shirou-chan…'

Lick.

A shiver traveled down Ichigo's spine. The warm tongue had stroked the back of his neck, his most sensitive spot. He had always loved Toushirou's licks.

Lick.

He licked his own lips, muffling a groan. Toushirou was being forward, very forward, and he liked it. This was promising to be the best birthday ever.

Lick.

Turning around, he grabbed his boyfriend, intending to reward the chibi captain with a kiss.

Lick.

Scream.

'Good morning, Kurosaki,' greeted Toushirou, smirking from his perch on the open window, 'You always complained that I always ignored you when you call so, I decided to get you lil Shiro-chan. Oh, the fact that you liked my licks helped me out too.' His wicked smirk widened. 'Happy birthday, Kurosaki.'

Sitting in bed, completely awake, Ichigo could only stare wide-eyed at his boyfriend.

In his lap, a small white puppy, a collar around its neck saying, 'Shiro-chan.'
