This is something a bit old, I wrote it a while ago but didn't place it here. I'll load a chapter every day from today.

Dear you ~cry~

Against what is considered general knowledge, Zaraki Kenpachi is not an idiot, or a fool, or crazy; well, maybe a little. But the point is, that not for nothing, the current Kenpachi managed to get captancy of the 11th Division, therefore, Zaraki can't be complete idiot.

He noticed that something is very wrong when the shinigami representative mopes around Soul Society, bright hair and eyes suddenly looking dull and dead. Kenpachi frowns and sends Yachiru to lick Ikkaku's head clean before walking over to the human boy.

"Hey, what's wrong?" he asks gruffly.

Ichigo turns to him, expressionless. He opens his mouth to say he's fine, that there's nothing wrong with him but realizes that it'll be futile. He's been walking around with that face and depressing reiatsu for an hour, kinda hard to miss especially coming from someone normally so full of energy.

Ichigo thinks that maybe if he explains the truth...if he confesses to Kenpachi that he loves Renji but Renji doesn't love him back, or rather, doesn't want to. And it hurts him. Tears start streaming out as he remembers, blurring out Kenpachi's face.

"What's wrong?" Kenpachi asks again, a bit softer now.

The human makes a chocked sound before throwing himself into Kenpachi, holding his robes tightly as he cries and bawls. Zaraki doesn't move for a moment. With a small sigh he wraps his arms ackwardly against the smaller body, too quickly remembering that Ichigo Kurosaki is only human and 17 years old.

To be continued...
