Chap 1: it should be a normal day

It should have been a normal day, or so Byakuya thought…

What started as a normal January day became much more than that. How? Even he can't really recall that.

It should have started really normal, waking up at 6 am, taking a shower, getting his breakfast and going to work.

Or at least that is how it should have worked, but oh no not today, all hope left him, when his little sister Rukia stormed into his room to wish him the best for his birthday. And since then all came crashing down on him.

Like it or not, but he had no other choice as to live with this current mess, because it's not his house but that of his father Sojoun.

Sojoun, being the kind and lovely father he is, invited some old friends of Byakuya to his house, but Sojoun wouldn't be Sojoun if he wouldn't know about his sons' ill mannered temper. So there was just one thing he could do to bring Byakuya's old friends in the house without him escaping: Let them in, when his son is already in bed.

Byakuya really thought his father was a wicked man sometimes.

And so the (so far) worst day of Byakuyas life started.

He should have known his old man would do such a thing.

Inviting Yoruichi Shihouin, Kisuke Urahara, Gin Ichimaru and Sosuke Aizen in the house to celebrate his birthday couldn't be a good idea, but well nothing he could do about now anyway. So he did what every good educated Kuchiki would do: he kept his cool, or at least that was the plan.

Being with those four under one roof wouldn't do him any good. Unfortunately he didn't know how much truth was behind that.

Nevertheless it was time get up and if having his 18 year old little sister sitting on his bed was any indication she was the one to give him his first present.

Make no mistake he really loves her. She is his little gem, although she can handle herself. And so their morning routine for his birthday began:

"Good morning Rukia, how may I help you this early in the morning?" of course he knew, but it was a little game of them Rukia was sure to keep up with her now 22 year old Nii-san. "Ah nii-san good morning to you too. Well before you help me with anything you should first take a shower." Surely she didn't meant to offend him, he knew, she just wanted him out of bed so she could place her gift in his room.

"Of course, you are right, please excuse me, I will take my shower then" and so he got up and went for the bathroom.

In the meantime Rukia placed her gift on the top of his desk, of course he would find it immediately, but that was not the point here, it isn't Easter but the 31st of January, so no need to hide it that good.

As soon as the gift was placed and Rukia under the covers of the bed from her nii-san, he came out of the bathroom. Perfectly refreshed for the day to come in his cheap, but very comfortable house clothes, Byakuya made his way through his room in the search of his gift.

One may not expect someone like Byakuya to wear cheap clothes, but for him it's all about comfort and that one was more comfortable than his more expensive clothes and it took him a while to find this piece of clothing, well and he is at home and can wear what he wants as compared with his work attire, where he had to wear expensive suits to keep the image of the Kuchiki.

As he scanned the room his eyes came to rest on his desk. There it was the most precious set of calligraphy he ever laid is eyes on. He loved calligraphy and all that came with this art so it was only natural for him to love those pencils.

As he wandered to his desk Rukia was giggling under the blanket. He found it and judging by his look he more than loved it: well mission accomplished.

After inspecting it Byakuya turned to look at his sister and approached her, she got up, knowing full well what was about to come.

"Arigatou Rukia, this is exquisite" he said, while embracing his much shorter sister in a hug. "I'm glad you like it nii-san" Rukia said looking up and smiling at him.

Well now that this ritual was done there was one more thing to do now and Byakuya didn't like that very much… Greeting his guests; and so they made their way downstairs.

What greeted them there was, well, not what one of them expected. Granted they expected their guests in the living room, as expected they were there, but well not in that condition.

While Sosuke and Gin were on the couch cuddling together Yoruichi and Kisuke were on the floor, they too cuddling.

But oh well that was not the sight that greeted them, no that would just have been too normal.

Those four really had to drink their asses off… all over the couch laid bottles over bottles off sake.

Annoyed to the point of no return Byakuya decided to give those intruding guests a wakeup call they would never forget.

Rukia on the other side didn't knew right away what to do, granted she knew those four and their relationships, but to actually see Gin in Sosukes arms cuddling was well… that was new to her, but she didn't mind.

For her it didn't matter what gender you were and which you loved as long you loved the other it was okay.

So while Byakuya went off to who knew where to bring who knew what to wake them, Rukia decided to make herself breakfast. She really didn't want to know what was going on there when her nii-san woke them. It just smelled of trouble.

Sure enough there was a loud bang followed by screaming.

Not even 10 seconds later the four drunkards and her brother were walking into the kitchen all in one row with Byakuya being the last one to enter.

Really she loved her brother, but she never wanted to be on his bad side, no... that just couldn't end well.

Byakuya was the first to break the silence though "Please do tell me what you were thinking drinking so much in the middle of our living room. My grandfather will be furious if he sees this."

"Well we wanted to celebrate your birthday of course Bya-kuuuuuuuuuun~~ "

'Kisuke and that sing-sang voice of his... one of these days I AM going to kill him' Byakuya couldn't help but get mad at him... drinking this much and then being this unaffected, really he couldn't quite grasp that.

"Now Now Kisuke, Byakuya is right to chastise us. We didn't even waited for him to be there or at least gotten his permission or from his elders."

"Ah as always you're quite right Sosuke-kuuuuuuuuuuun~~ but what is with that lover of yours? Can't hold is liquor?"

Sure enough Gin seemed to be fast asleep again, of course one wouldn't know because of his eyes, what Byakuya irritated the most about this man.

"What, yar worried bout lil ol me? Ah no need no need I jus need a coffee I think"

Rukia, who was of course listening and anticipating this one gave Gin a cup of coffee with a nice smile on her face. "Here is your coffee Ichimaru-san."

"Ah why thank ya Ruki-chan an ya can call me Gin."

"Ah okay thanks very much Gin-san." Really that Gin crept her out a bit... and so she excused herself from the group and made her way to her room.

All alone with those four idiots Byakuya was on the brink of throwing them out. But o well it wouldn't do him any good knowing full well that his father invited them. So there was just one option left: Endure it like a real Kuchiki, well easier said than done.

"Say Bya-bo what are you planning on doing tonight? I heard of this new bar Sodom"

"Ah but Yoruichi-san that bar is not so new, but you are right it is indeed a nice bar. Gin and I were there recently."

"Well then we should go there don't you think Bya-bo?" Youruichi asked with that evil cat grin of hers.

Byakuya knew there was no way he could oppose them. Surely Gin and Kisue would stick to their lovers, so no way out. "Sure I don't see why not." 'Really those two... Ah well maybe I really have fun, it's been long since went out the last time.'

Last time being the day he met his love Hisana, that was now 4 years ago. The memory of her flooded his mind and with that nearly came the tears, because just one year after they met and fell in love she died because of cancer.

"Oi! Earth to Byakuya-bo. You okay with the bar?" He missed the whole discussion because of his thoughts... 'Why would she ask me if I was okay with it? Ah but asking that would just show, that I didn't pay attention to them just now. '

"Of course it is fine with me, why shouldn't it?" Closing his eyes and turning to get a cup of coffee he didn't saw the raised eyebrows as Yoruichi and Sosuke exchanged glances.
