Day's in the life of Jushiro Ukitake
Hello everyone! This is my first fanfic uploaded here ^^ This story is just gonna have small chapters following the daily life of Jushiro Ukitake from Bleach :D
Each Chapter will follow a day, hope you enjoy :)
Chapter 1- Candy time!
Jushiro woke up slowly to the sound of a few singing birds, and the sun peeping through the small gaps in the windows creating a sunlight pattern on the ground. Getting up he opened up the sliding doors, stepping out onto the veranda overlooking the ponds where the koi swam, and two big sakura trees with petals fluttering of the many flowers.
"Ahh.. What a great morning..!" Jushiro thought out loud.
Stretching, he padded back inside to get dressed for the day. Jushiro was very much in a good mood today, for quite a few reasons. The weather was great; he was feeling better than usual and he'd completed all his paperwork so he had no workload looming over his back like he usually did.
Finally, a chance to get outside, instead of being stuck in bed. He thought happily. Being stuck in bed with an illness you can't get rid of bored Jushiro so much sometimes; especially when there was no koi to watch and nothing to read.
After getting dressed into his usual Shinigami outfit, he went out into the Soul Society. Upon walking down the streets of the Soul Society he bumped into Zaraki.
"Good morning Zaraki!" Jushiro greeted.
"Oh hey." Was the Captains response. Blunt as usual.
Attempting to make some sort of conversation without veering into talking about fighting, or even worse actually fighting, Jushiro asked "So where's Yachiru today?" But before Zaraki could even answer a little pink blur flew out from behind his back, glomping Jushiro.
"I'm here Uki~!" Yachiru stated, clinging onto Jushiro. "Do you have any candy for meeee?" She asked, trying to hunt around for some in his haori.
Trying to prise her off him, he replied "Yes, yes I do have some candy, here you go!" Jushiro gave Yachiru her candy which she craved almost everyday.
"Yaaaaaaaay! Thanks Uki!" She exclaimed before leaping back onto Zaraki's back and munching on the candy noisly.
I wonder how he copes with her sometimes.. Jushiro thought to himself, while smiling. That reminds me! I haven't given Hitsugaya some candy for a while now.. he must want some! I'll have to go give him some now.
"Well I'll let you on your way now Zaraki." Jushiro said, waving a small good-bye before walking on to find Toshiro.
Jushiro arrived at the 10th Division a few minutes later. Here I am… now, Hitsugaya should be around here somewhere; or at least someone who can tell me where he is.
Just as he thought that, a bouncy curly haired figure popped round one of the doors carrying a small bottle of sake.
"Ah, hello Ukitake-taicho! What're you visiting us for?" She questioned
"Good morning Matsumoto, I'm looking for your Captain; any idea if he's here?" He replied smiling.
"Yup he's here alright, he just yelled at me earlier only because I forgot one piece of paperwork…" Rangiku pouted.
"Oh dear" he commented. "Well I better go and find him, and you might want to start on the paperwork if you don't want him to shout anymore." He advised jokingly.
"Guess I should… but I gotta meet with Kira and Hisagi first 'cuz were going drink together! Wanna come? Kyouraku-san might be there too! " Rangiku offered, holding up her sake bottle.
Drinking at this time? Its not even noon yet! Jushiro thought
"I think I'll pass, thanks for offering though." Jushiro replied, starting to walk off. Last time I went drinking with that lot along with Shunsui, it turned out horribly… Jushiro remembered, thinking of the past times where Shunsui had done something idiotic or embarrassing that Jushiro had to save him from. Although Shunsui was undeniably his best friend, even Jushiro grew tired of his drunken matters sometimes.
Lost in his thoughts, Jushiro blundered round the corner, only to go smashing into something.
After a loud thump and a crash, Jushiro found himself on the floor along with another grumbling white haired captain. "Ouch…" Rubbing his shoulder Jushiro refocused to what exactly he had bumped into. "Hitsugaya-san..!" He realized.
Toshiro started to stand up angrily. "Ukitake! Watch where your going you fool!" He snapped.
"Sorry Hitsugaya, I wasn't watching where I was going… are you all right?" He said apologizing and getting up.
"I'm fine…" Toshiro replied sighing. "What're you doing here anyway?" He questioned still looking even more annoyed than usual.
"Oh I came to see you Hitsugaya!" Jushiro said fumbling around in his pockets, before pulling out a massive stack load of candy and piling them onto Toshiro.
"E-Eh? What's all this for? You came just to give me candy?" Toshiro asked confused.
"I was going to give you some anyway, but take it as an apology for knocking you over!" Jushiro said jollily, putting the final packet of sweets onto the towering pile of candy Toshiro was now holding. "I hope that's enough for you! If you want you can always ask me for more, I'll be in the 13th Barracks most of the time when you want me~" Jushiro said, and with that he turned around and started to leave waving as he left; leaving a very confused and sore Toshiro.
What is with that guy..? Toshiro pondered. I really need to ask him why he gives me candy all the time… although I have to admit its kinda nice. That guys too nice for his own good though… Toshiro sighed again, and carried his massive stack back to his office where he could attempt to store it all.
Jushiro arrived back at the 13th Division only to find a massive stack of paperwork on his desk. "Huh…? But I'd finished all my paperwork for the week…" Jushiro thought out loud, confused. He then heard a knock on the door behind him.
"Come in" Jushiro said, turning around to see a member of his squad in his doorway.
"Umm, hello Captain… I thought I'd let you know all the paperwork was just given by Captain Commander, he said the ones that your third-seats had filled in were all wrong so he thought he'd leave you to do it instead." He stated, watching Jushiro's expression turn from smiley to surprised, then disappointed.
"Ah so that's where it all came from…" Jushiro sighed. "Thanks for telling me" He smiled at his squad member, before the man left.
Jushiro turned back to the pile of paperwork, wishing he had a way out of it. Well… better to start it now than to put it off! He thought optimistically, and sat down to work on paperwork for the rest of the day.
After much toiling, and concentration Jushiro had completed about quarter of the stack. He leant back in his chair, stretching his arms and wrists which were practically aching from writing so much. Time for a break…! I feel like some tea. Jushiro thought, and got up to go and make himself some tea. His favourite was probably green tea, the tea he had always drunk when he was ill as its warm taste had helped sooth his throat and lungs. It wasn't until he looked at the clock while making his tea he realized just how much time had passed. "Already nearly 8pm?" Jushiro said outloud. Today's gone pretty quickly… He poured his cup of green tea and took a sip while walking back to his office. I can start the remaining paperwork tomorrow, after working for hours straight I don't quite feel like starting again. Jushiro thought to himself.
The Barracks were starting to empty little by little as time went on, Shinigami went back to their houses as the day drew to an end. Jushiro was the last to leave from his Division, making his way back to his house in the gentle moonlight. He came back into his house, sliding open the door to his room only to find a very odd sight he was not expecting in the least.
"Y-Yachiru?" Jushiro exclaimed upon seeing the young girl sitting on his floor rooting through cupboards. "Just what are you doing here?"
"I came to see where you store your candy! So then I can visit anytime and have some!" She answered, looking up from the cupboard.
Jushiro smiled and sighed. "I promise you can have lots of candy tomorrow, but its late now and I'm guessing Zaraki doesn't know where you've gone, so you better go back to him." Jushiro suggested.
"You proooomise I can?"
"Yep, I promise!"
"Yaaaaaay! Thanks Uki!" and with that she left the room through a mini secret door which Jushiro never knew even existed in his house.
Jushiro eventually climbed into a cosy bed, and soon drifted off into sleep.
Thats it for the first chapter! I hope you enjoyed it ^^ (Sorry for the crappy ending, I couldn't really think of much... OTL)
