A Place Called Home

Gin Ichimaru shut the door to his tiny house with an aggravated sigh. He had a long day at work, and there where times when Gin really hated to be a lawyer. Sure the money was great, but the job itself was draining. He loosened his tie and sit his briefcase next to the door, he smiled happily when he heard his family ranting.

"Get away from me you little hob knocker!" He heard his eldest child holler, Kiyomi was Gin's only daughter and the oldest of the three Ichimaru children. She 16 going on 17 and every bit of rebellious teenager. Sharp and outspoken, Kiyomi mainly didn't crap from anyone. She was the proverbial tough girl who wasn't afraid of anyone or anything…except maybe boys her age…and zits….and anything else a teenager might fear. Kiyomi was the spinning image of Gin's wife, Rukia. They acted the same too. She was small like her mother with raven hair and large expressive blue eyes.

"But listen Kiyomi," Gin heard his son beg, Fumihiko was the second born and the middle child of the three. Young Fumihiko was like a miniature version of Gin himself, he wore his silver hair short and kept his red eyes narrowed into tiny slits. The only difference between Gin and Fumihiko was that Fumihiko wore rounded glasses and had a set of braces. Fumihiko was only 10 years of age and already had read over a couple hundred thousand books in his short lifetime. Fumihiko, unfortunately, was a bit of nerd. He spent most of his time reading, and when he wasn't reading he was bringing in samples of dirt and plants from outside trying to analyze them much to his mother's chagrin. Yes, Fumihiko was very into science and thoroughly enjoyed cataloging and examining the things he found in the park.

"Fumihiko," Kiyomi said angrily, "if you don't get away from me, I'll give you a wedgie so bad you won't have to look down to see it!"

"I'm telling mom!"

Gin was about to intervene in his children's argument when his youngest son crawled up to him. Jiro was only two years old and the youngest of the thee. He was much too young to figure out who he look liked more, but he had Gin's silver hair and Rukia's blue eyes. Like most little tykes, Jiro loved to get into things and crawled around wherever his legs would take him.

"Up," The toddler laughed reaching up to his father, Gin scooped up Jiro and set about searching for his wife. To whom, was in the kitchen going over paperwork while simultaneously cooking dinner. Rukia Kuchiki, or Rukia Ichimaru as her marital name would suggest, had been Gin's wife for nearly 17 years.

The two fell in love in law school and hadn't been separated since. Rukia was a paralegal doting mother, and beautiful wife. Gin wondered often how he got so lucky.

"Hi honey," She said kissing Gin tenderly, Jiro was wriggling about in his arms wanting to go to his mother.

"How was your day?" Rukia said taking Jiro from him and tickling the toddler.

"Awful," Gin said sitting down at the kitchen table, just then Fumihiko ran into the kitchen with his underwear up to his chin.

"Mom! Kiyomi gave me a wedgie!" The young silver-haired cried.

"Kiyomi! Stop bullying your brother!" Gin hollered, he was very frustrated and didn't need his children's annoying squabbles causing him a headache. He then turned his attention to Rukia who was busy giving Jiro a strawberry to chew on.

"Have you found any yet?" He asked his wife, Rukia shook her head.

For some time now the couple had been looking for a new home, somewhere out of the city, and hopefully somewhere bigger so that way they wouldn't be on top of one another like they where now.

"No, not yet." Rukia informed her husband, Gin rubbed his temples. After his little outburst with Kiyomi things had quieted down. Good, Gin needed peace and quiet. This house was too small to have children running around screwing with one another. Gin thought that Kiyomi and Fumihiko where mature enough not to screw with each other, but apparently he thought wrong once Kiyomi stormed into the kitchen.

"But he's an annoying little pest who keeps bugging me about some stupid flower he found!" Kiyomi yelled at her father while pointing to her accosted younger sibling. Gin looked at her with uncaring eyes.

"Is it too much to try to ignore him?" He asked his daughter, Kiyomi rolled her eyes and flipping her raven bangs from her face.

"I tried but his voice is like a buzzing sound that won't go away!"

Gin shook his head, he really didn't have the energy to fight tonight.

"Flower?" Rukia said looking down at her son, "you didn't bring it into the house, did you?"

Fumihiko looked down at his feet, "No." He lied through his teeth. Rukia quirked an eyebrow, she could always tell when one of her children lied because they always looked down.

"You're grounded Fumihiko." Rukia told her son,

"Why? For harvesting a flower?" Fumihiko said in disbelief,

"No, for lying. And I've already told you don't bring wild plants into the house."

Kiyomi snickered and Rukia looked to her eldest child.

"You're grounded too, Kiyomi." Rukia said seriously,

"For what?"

"Firstly for bullying your brother, and then mocking him when he got grounded."

Both the children stomped from the kitchen grumbling under their breaths. Gin smiled up at his wife.

"And in one foul swoop you've managed to stop my headache." He teased, Rukia kissed her husband on the forehead,

"I'm supermom, remember?"

Gin chuckled, that was an accurate description. Originally, Gin wanted Rukia to be a stay-at-home mom, but the younger Kuchiki wouldn't have it. She wanted to work and assured Gin she could handle the responsibility of being both a parent and a paralegal. And she proved she could handle it.

Time and time again.

Rukia left to the kitchen to check on her two other little headaches leaving Gin with Jiro. The little toddler crawled up to his father.

"I made stinky." Jiro laughed, Gin's face contorted in horror.

"Rukia! Your son needs you!"
