IT had been six months since Aizen left. Motsumoto knew that it was hard for Momo. The two women talked about it a lot

and she was helping her sister in law get through it. Motsumoto also knew it was hard for Demi and Daisy. She would never

forgive Aizen for hurting her nice and nephew. She was also glad Tōshirō was spending time with Demi. The problem was,

that he was spending no time with her or their own son Nat,. Finally, after seeing Nat upset, again, she put her foot down.

She entered her captin's office while he was doing his paper work.

"Tōshirō, we need to talk," She said sternly.

"I have no time. By the way your behind on your paperwork Rangiku, Get to work!" He said not looking up.

"We need to talk now," she said to her husband.

When he still refused, she sat on his desk.

"Rangiku!" He said angrily.

"You never spend time with me or Nat anymore," She said.

He sighed, "Like I told Nat, I'm very busy and with Aizen gone I have to help with the twins," He said.

"But Nat's your son." She insisted.

After a few seconds she decided to ask the question she was regretting.

"Do you love her?"

"What?" Tōshirō said surprised.

"Do you love Momo? Now that Aizen is gone will you… will you leave me and Nat?" she asked.

"Rangiku," Tōshirō said shocked.

"Momo is like a sister to me. I married you, I love you. You were the one I had a family with, not her." He said taking her

hands into his.

"But you spend more time with Demi then you do your own son," She continued hurt.

"Demi is at a tender age right now, he needs a male role model in his life. His visits to Whaco Mundo aren't enough,"

"Nat's 13, Tōshirō, he needs his father. He has been trying for weeks to do something with you. I didn't want to say anything

but apparently him and Nan kissed."

At this Tōshirō looked shocked. Nat told him everything, or so he thaught.

"Rangiku, I had no idea… I, I wasn't thinking," He said still shocked.

"Rangiku" He said standing up.

When she sat on his desk and he stood up they were at the perfect level.

"I love you and Nat more then anything. I don't know what I would ever do without you, I'm pretty sure I would die," He

said kissing her.

After a few minutes of making out he pulled away.

"I'm going to go find Nat, However" He said pecking her ear.

"I would love to pick up where we left off later," He finished with a grin.

"Ok" She said smiling.

On his way out, the captain turned to his lutenet,


"I love you," He said before leaving.

He found Nat sitting on the roof.

"Hey" He said.

"Hi" Nat said not looking up.

Tōshirō sat down next to him.

"I'm sorry I've been preoccupied. I've been very stressed. You know I'm helping with your uncle's old squad as well as

running my own." He said.

Nat turned, "I know that, and I'm glad your helping Aunt Momo and the twins but I need you too, dad. And I know mom

misses you."

Tōshirō hated that Nat sensed his mothers pain.

"I know son and I'm sorry. I love you and your mother so much" He said.

They sat in silence for a few minutes. Finally Tōshirō turned.

"I heard you kissed Nan," He said getting to the other subject he wanted to.

Nat gave him a confused look,

"That was just an experiment dad. We wanted to see, that if two people kissed if they would be attracted to each other.

There not by the way." He added.

"Oh," Tōshirō said.

Trust Nan and Nat to make a first kiss as casual as an experiment.

"Hey, I've got a few hours free tomorrow afternoon. Since your learning basic sword skills maybe I can teach you some

moves," The captain said to his son.

"Yeah," Nat said quite happily,

"That would be great,"

Tōshirō smiled, "Ok son see you later"

He said rubbing his head of hair.
