Thunderstorm
Fears are usually irrational. There's no explanation for them, there's no way to prevent them and even the most hard-hearted person could find themselves paralysed with fear.That was how Shihouin Yoruichi spent her first night in the human world. Despite her long training in Soul Society and despite her determination to prove herself worthy of her Special OP Brigade application, she was terrified. Her small frame was curled up against the wall of the house her vice-captain had found to shelter themselves from the thunderstorm.
With each thunder roll she would hug herself tighter; each lightning spark would make her wince. She looked over to Urahara Kisuke, envying his peaceful sleep, the heavy rain falling on the rooftop hiding his snores.
Yoruichi nearly yelped as the thunder seemingly exploded over them. When she opened her eyes again, she met the grey gaze of her vice-captain. His expression was unreadable, no amused twinkle in his eyes, no anger hardening of his unshaved jaw. Dragging himself besides Yoruichi, Kisuke sat his back against the same wall as her, and unwrapped the ragged blanket from around his body and opened his arms.
"Come here Neko-chan" he whispered, using the nickname he had given her on their first meeting. The young shinigami moved closer and the blond haired prodigy helped her settle between his legs. He wrapped the blanket around himself again, trapping her in his warmth. Yoruichi shivered, feeling his breathe on her neck, his soft lips against the crook of her neck, his stubble lightly scratching her shoulder as he leaned his head against her the back of neck, drifting back to sleep.
As the storm withered away outside, Shihouin Yoruichi fell in love, and fell asleep, a warm feeling spreading on the inside.
