Pale hands gripped bleach white fabric and clung to it as if life itself depended upon it. The grip tightened as the hands twisted the fabric, unwilling to release it. "Don't you leave me," the pale man growled. Emerald eyes screwed shut as his grip tightened further on the fabric. "I won't let you!" The raven haired man let his head drop to the bloodied chest of the cerulean haired Espada. After bottling his emotions for so long, Ulquiorra finally let them all flow. "Grimmjow," he muttered as hot tears flowed from his eyes.

"Ulqui—" Grimmjow sputtered, coughing up blood. Ulquiorra felt every jarring movement of the larger Espada's chest, but refused to move. Grimmjow weakly raised a hand and maneuvered it under the smaller's chin. He could feel the muscles quivering under the pale skin. Grimmjow guided Ulquiorra's head until he forced the dark-haired Espada to look him in the eyes. "Don't you—forget—me." With each cough, more and more blood spilled out of his mouth. Grimmjow's eyes began getting distant. "Don't—let him get—away with—this."

"No! You're not going to die! Stop talking like you are!" Ulquiorra grabbed Grimmjow's head and held it between his hands, letting his fingers weave through the blue locks. Grimmjow managed to muster up one last smile for his friend.

"Good bye, Ulqui—" Grimmjow's eyes lost their light and glazed over. His head fell limp in the other's hands. His body slowly faded to dust while Ulquiorra still clutched his friend as closely to his body as possible. Heart-wrenching sobs broke free of his chest, shattering the silence of the moment. Ulquiorra's hands dropped to the sand where Grimmjow's body had just laid and clenched into tight fists. Tears still rolled down his face freely tracing the emerald tracks that marred his pale skin. Ulquiorra stood abruptly, his hand guiding itself to the sword hilt around his waist.

"He's going to pay for this. I will make sure of it, even it's the last thing I do," Ulquiorra growled, preparing to avenge the death of his only friend.

A/N: I feel as though I read wayy too many GrimmUlqui fics.. I saw a few death ones and for some reason I decided to write this.. Well, this is why I shouldn't be allowed to have a computer….
