Why So Tense?
Ichimaru GinXKira Izuru Fluff
~Izuru's Point Of View~
Your knees nearly buckled as you watched the huge hollows approach.
"Why are you so tense? Just relax, it'll be over soon." said the hollow.
That hit home, Ichimaru Taichou… he always asked that.
"Why so tense, Izuru?" he would ask, "Have I been workin' ya too hard? Yo' Po' Thing."
Damn those words, they brought back memories… Nights of paperwork… Nights without sleep… Nights with him.
With a new found passion, you sliced the advancing hollow in two.
You spun around to the sound of clapping. "Good job, Izuru. Just when I was starin' ta think I had to save ya." He said standing, arms crossed over his chest. His usual smile plastered on his face.
"I-Ichimaru Taichou! I, uh, Gomen." You stuttered looking at the ground.
"That hollow was righ' to ask, why so tense, Izuru?" he stated, ignoring you previous stuttered sentence. "Ya know I woulda saved ya."
"I-I uh… Gomen Ichimaru Taichou!" you said bowing.
He chuckled. "Com'on, Kira. Let's get back before anyone gets the wrong idea."
You followed him back through the portal which he had used to come in through. You left the world of the living behind.
"I expect yer paperwork done by tomorrow, understood?"
"Hai Ichimaru Taichou." You answered… You needed to ask a favor of him… Badly.
"Hm? Why so tense, Kira?" he asked his usual grin wider than normal.
"C-could you, uh, maybe, um, h-h-hel-" you started.
"Izuru, if yer gonna ask, then ask." Said Ichimaru, his voice… definitely wasn't displaying any happiness.
You chickened 'help me with the paperwork? If you can…" trailed of still tense.
"Ah, is that all? So tense for just that? Of course I can help ya." He chuckled again. "Ya need ta relax." And with that he walked with you to your office.
"I'ma help you with this, but that means if ya ain't finished by tomorrow mornin' then you ain't gonna get away with it." He said as he took some of the papers.
"Hai Ichimaru Taichou." You said bowing respectfully.
"See ya tomorrow, Izuru." He said, walking away with a wave. When he said your name, he looked over his shoulder at you, his usual grin a little larger than usual.
~Next day~
"Tsk. Tsk." 'Who's there?' you thought groggily.
"Time ta wake up." 'Ichimaru Taichou!?'
You immediately sat bolt upright, Ichimaru was perched on the edge of your desk.
"Gomen Ichimaru Taichou!!" you nearly yelled.
He chuckled light heartedly.
You nearly had a heart attack when you tried to remember if you had finished the paperwork.
"Gomen! Gomen! Gomen! Gomen! Go-" you were cut off.
"Gomen for what?" asked Ichimaru, still smiling.
You began to panic.
"I-I d-didn't g-get the p-p-p-paperwork d-done." You said quietly, looking at the floor while speaking. Once you had finished you looked up at him.
"Tsk. Tsk. Kira," he said, inspecting his nails. Upon saying your name he looked up, his smile a little larger than usual (It always seemed to be these days). He then repeated your name, in a serious tone, "Kira, now I have to punish you."
Terrified you stared at him. "W-w-what are y-you going t-to do to m-me?!"
Without answering he reached down and tenderly kissed you lips. His felt cool an-
"AHH!!!!" you screamed having just been punched in the stomach.
"Sorry to interrupt yer happy lil' wet dream, but I already told ya I wanted those papers done by now.."
'Huh? Just a dream? Not Another one? Wait…'
"Wait! How did you-"
"Know?" he finished.
"Ya…" you mumbled.
"Hehe, either ya keep yer zanpaktoh in yer pants or ya've been havin' some naughty thoughts." He said, his grin growing to an inhuman size. He continued, "But I doubt the first option since yer sword is over there-" he points to a corner of the room where Wabisuke is in fact laying.
"So, who were ya dreamin' of?"
