AN: And here it is, the start of my new challenge and not to mention my next HyoHai fic! So enough babbling let's get started.

Theme #1: A perfect moment

I don't own anything. If I did these two and HitsuMatsu would be canon.

~*~*~*~*KK*~*~*~*~

This really wasn't what Haineko had in mind when she asked Hyorinmaru to come with her into one of the forests surrounding Rukongai. She had managed to get away from the Old Hag and had gotten him to sneak off for once, though now she was sort of regretting it. She had been wanting to get him alone and try out a few seduction techniques on him, but as soon as they had entered the forest he had taken the lead and wouldn't answer any of her questions.

She tried to distract him enough so he would tell her, but he simply wouldn't budge. And here she thought he would drop the stoic attitude and act like the closet pervert she knew he was. Sure he liked to deny it when they were in public but when it was just them, or just them with their wielders, he would drop the act and let his true colors shine.

Haineko huffed and crossed her arms, they had been walking for hours and still no word from the icy dragon in man form leading her through the forest. It was also starting to turn dark. Sure, she had planned to be gone until sometime tomorrow morning, but most of that did not include walking through a forest with no conversation.

"Darling! Where are we going?" She asked, for what to be the twentieth time since they started.

When she got no response, she pouted and began to glare at the teal haired man in front of her. He never ignored her, at least for not this long. Haineko stopped in her tracks and placed her hands on her hips.

"I'm not going any farther until you tell me where you're leading me!"

The icy man stopped and half turned to look at the ash cat with a grey eye, "Not much longer."

He began to walk again and much to her dismay Haineko began to follow once more. They walked a little farther, Haineko mumbling the entire time about 'No good dragons and their damn secrets', before they reached a small field that lead up to a large hill.

Hyorinmaru continued to walk up the hill until he reached the top. He turned and waited for Haineko to join him before he sat down.

"So why are we here?"

"Just sit down."

"Oh, now you're gonna talk to me?" When she didn't get a response, again, she huffed and sat next to him.

After a few moments, Haineko grew bored of looking at the expanse scenery. Sure this hill had a great view of Rukongai and Seireitei but really what was the point of looking at it when nothing was happening? There wasn't even a sunset to look at.

Haineko continued to sulk for about another few minutes before she heard, "Look."

"Wha-?" Before she finished her question a high whistle noise reached her ears and she looked up.

A bright blue firework had just exploded lighting the sky and soon others followed, casting wonderfully colored sparks into the air. Haineko turned to Hyorinmaru looking half stunned, half confused.

"I had heard that was to be a festival today, but before I could tell you, you dragged me off. But knowing you, Cariad, I know you would be upset when you found you missed a festival so instead of letting you have your way with me, I decided we could at least watch the fireworks by ourselves. Instead of with the other zanpakutos." He explained, keeping his eyes on the display of explosives and smiling slightly.

Haineko sat there for a few seconds, letting his word sink in before she smirked and scooted closer to him and placing her head on his shoulder. Sure trudging through the forest for most of the day wasn't what she had originally planned but in the end it was worth it to be snuggled against her darling.
