With this new year, I bring you a new collection of drabbles!

Ahh…as expected, I am a HitsuHina fan through and through. Anyway! I came across a post that listed a whole bunch of different types of kisses and immediately, I thought: I could make this into a HitsuHina fic! And so I did.

Hope you guys will enjoy this new collection!

Surprise Kiss

The soft rustling of sheets was heard as Hitsugaya collapsed onto the futon. He groaned and shifted to lie on his back, exhaustion evident in his voice. As he stretched his body, Hinamori could hear the audible crick of his bones and allowed a sympathetic look to rest on her features. She watched him silently as he stretched out the last of the knots in his taut muscles and he let out a contented sigh.

"I'm beat…"

It was uncharacteristic for the stoic captain of the Tenth Division to admit something like that but Hinamori couldn't blame him though. After all, he did complete Matsumoto's share of the paperwork, help settle a few matters for the Fifth Division, train his subordinates personally, attend a very boring Captains' meeting at an ungodly hour and trained with Hyourinmaru (which riled him up more than it should).

In short, Hitsugaya Toushirou was drained. That, and he wanted his well-earned rest. The white-haired captain closed his eyes, just for a moment to shake off the fatigue before persuading himself to get off the comfortable futon and wash the grime off his body. He was vaguely aware of a hand approaching his head and he welcomed it, knowing that Hinamori's cool touch never failed to relieve him.

"Hey…" she began softly. "You're going to get the sheets dirty if you just keep lying here."

Hinamori reached out and gently brushed his bangs to the side. Hitsugaya cracked open an eye and saw the small smile playing on the edges of her lips.

His eyes were now fully opened and they bore into her brown ones with an intense gaze.

"Don't I get something in return?" he half-asked, half-demanded and Hinamori had to bite back a laugh. He sounded so much like a child insisting on getting some sort of reward. Hitsugaya did not let her answer as he continued, "Damn that Hirako! Why'd he have to go to the World of the Living?"

Hitsugaya may have voiced that out in a way that conveyed his displeasure with Hirako Shinji paying the World of the Living a visit and approaching the Tenth Division Captain for help in settling several matters for the Fifth Division (knowing that he would never decline), but Hinamori knew he wasn't genuinely unhappy about it. His pride just got in the way of him admitting that he didn't mind helping the Fifth Division because well, it was her division.

"Ah, it seems Hirako-taichou misses Hiyori-san a lot."

"She doesn't seem to miss him though."

Hinamori let out a soft laugh. He liked it when she laughed like that; it was…soothing. "Those two…have a strange relationship."

A comfortable silence lapsed between the two but was soon broken when Hinamori said, "Toushirou, get up."

Hitsugaya was surprised at her sudden demand but obeyed nevertheless. He pushed himself up and sat cross-legged in front of her.

"Come closer, I have something to say."

Hitsugaya shot her a quizzical look; couldn't she just say it like that? He leaned in anyway, his interest piqued.

"Closer…"

He seemed drawn to the sound of her voice as he leaned in further and before Hitsugaya could question her, Hinamori met him halfway and pressed her lips firmly onto his. His teal eyes widened in surprise at the sudden warm contact of their lips and the vice-captain of the Fifth Division did not even give him time to relish in the feel of her mouth covering his when she pulled away as quickly as she had kissed him.

A blush spread across her cheeks as she looked at him in the eyes and said, "Thank you for the hard work, 'Shiro. You did well."

It was then that Hitsugaya realized he liked it when Hinamori kisses him suddenly.
