The kiss was short.

But Ichigo didn't care because the sudden kiss given to him by Grimmjow had been the best damn kiss that he had ever had. Any kisses that he had received before this one was crap compared to Grimmjow's short and rough one.

This kiss had been... manly... not soft and feminine like the kisses he had received from the few girls he had ever kissed or been kissed by.

There kisses had been long and hopelessly romantic which would've been good for Ichigo if... well, he was a teenage guy and he wasn't quite looking for long romances just yet.

He wanted power, which was exactly what Grimmjow had given him with the kiss, since, even if the kiss had been short and lacking in length it only made up in power and passion and... masculinity. Ichigo loved it.

It was the short of power and quick passion that only the sexta espada knew how to perform. And...

Ichigo wanted more, but he wouldn't tell Grimmjow that because well... for him it was just plain awkward, so instead he said, "Grimmjow... what... what the hell was that?" The words are only met with cerulean eyes -not words- staring into is; there faces were close- centimeters away since Grimmjow still held the teens face in his large hands.

"Grimmjow..."

Only then did Grimmjow say, "Do you ever shut your mouth, shinigami?"

And that was not the answer Ichigo had been looking for (What was, King?), "Screw you Grimmjow!" He said angrily as he tried to rip his face away and out of Grimmjow's hands, but he couldn't- Grimmjow held on tight, which caused the orange-head to scowl.

Grimmjow grinned, "Tch. You'd like that, eh Shinigami?"

(I would, King.)

At the words Ichigo's face turned as red as his names fruity meaning, "S-Shut up Grimm!"

A smirk and a quirk of a topaz blue eyebrow was the reply, followed by, "'Grimm'? We already got pet names for each other... Ichi?"

(Cheeky, ain't he King?)

"S-shut up Grimmjow!"

"Make me."

"You...!"

"Me?" Grimmjow grinned, his cockiness growing each second.

(Make him flinch King!)

"Grimmjow, why did you kiss me?"

That time, Ichigo got to Grimmjow, because he did flinch at the question.

"S-shut up shinigami!"

(We almost got him, King!)

And then something in Ichigo's brown eyes sparkled and he realized, he was going to get another kiss, he was going to get more.

"Why, Grimmjow?"

"Sh-"

"I didn't mind y'know..."

Grimmjow blinked, and then scowled, and then opened his mouth as if to say something, but he couldn't get the words out- or he couldn't decide what to say.

"Why did you kiss me?"

He had his words then, "Shut up!"

(We got him King!)

"I can't." Ichigo's eye flashed with his want then, and Grimmjow saw it, but he was still confused because he furrowed his eyebrows and said, "The hell shini"-

"No one can, we can't 'shut up'... but we can shut down..."

Grimmjow understood.

"Will you 'shut down' then shinigami?"

"With you?"

"Yeah dumbass, who else?"

And then when Grimmjow once again smashed his lips to Ichigo's in another ferocious kiss Ichigo kissed back with what he hoped was power equal to Grimmjow's...

As they kissed each other, there minds shut down and there bodies and lips took over.


AN/: Wow... when I wrote 'Shut up' I didn't expect that many hits and such. It makes me happy to see, so I wrote this follow up to it, and well, here you go! I hope it does as good. Thanks! Review Please?
