Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach. A/N: I can't believe that I have twelve fics on this site already! Okaaay onto to the story, this is mostly unrelated to my other Bya/Ruki one-shot-Something that's forever. Warning: slight lemon involved; proceed at your own risk. Well that said, Enjoy.
'Was it purely platonic?'
Byakuya asked himself this as he quietly went down the connecting hallway to the east wing of the mansion. The servants had been dismissed for the night after seeing 'Miss Kuchiki to her room.' It was a rare night indeed when she didn't stay in the Squad thirteen barracks. So rare in fact that instead of greeting him in his private office she chose to not disturb him by saying she would leave early in the morning anyway. He'd learned this from the servants' chatter.
'How had they grown so far apart? Sure they weren't related; but that didn't mean that he couldn't have a loving relationship with his sister, now did it?'
'But wasn't that a part of the problem? Did he really want a platonic relationship with his dead wife's sister?'
"Be quiet, Senbonzakura," Byakuya muttered. There was a haughty sniff and then a flirtatious giggle.
'You're such a stick in the mud, Bya-chan!' exclaimed Senbonzakura.
He paused with one hand on the sliding partition; the light was off inside the room so his shadow wasn't visible.
'I mean I still don't get what you're so worked up about…I mean considering what a fine physical specimen you are of Soulreaper manliness. One little skinny Strawberry fly should be easy to pick off your little drop of Rukia honey!'
"Silence!"
'Tee-hee-hee!' Senbonzakura laughed and pranced away in her gown of cherry blossoms.
His words he doubted were heard in the bedroom; but still he was careful not to make any unnecessary sounds whilst entering his sister's bedchamber. A slanted skylight positioned above the bed shed soft moonlight on Rukia's sleeping face. Those lovely eyes were shut; her long raven lashes fluttered just the tiniest bit while she dreamed, probably of bunnies and rainbows, Byakuya thought wryly.
'She was still so innocent…so pure…so untouched.'
'And she could be mine.'
Byakuya finished the unspoken thought and was surprised to find himself suddenly aroused. 'Gods, how long had it been?' He started to mentally count, 'thirty, no, forty, since Hisana's death?! He hadn't gotten laid in over fifty years!?' A sudden movement caught him off guard.
Rukia turned over on her side and murmured something so low that he was sure he had imagined it except he doubted it was 'Nii-sama.'
"Mmm, Byakuya."
