Blue meets Grey

Byakuya sat at the windowsill, it was dark and the moonlight seemed to pour over him. He was haunted by memories he had locked away a long time ago. They only bothered him while he was alseep so he only slept as little as he could.

"Rukia.." he whispered. He missed his family, he missed his life before all of this. He wanted it all back, and hed give anything to go back. The moonlight reflected off of his cold grey eyes, a single tear streaming down his cheek.

The next thing he knew it was morning, he was still kneeling by the window sill when the nurses came to his room to make him take his meds. They kept him as doped up as they could, his mind was fragile. It could snap at any second, and he had been making relative progress in the last few months and everyone would hate for him to regress.

Grimmjow hadnt slept much either, he had laid in bed tossing and turning all night. 'I just want to feel something other then numbness.' he thought to himself. His mom called him heartless and thats exactly how he felt.

It was a few hours and they called everyone to the cafeteria for lunch, Byakuya walked a little bit closer to him then he felt comfortable for but understood when they got there. There was seven different kinds of crazy locked in this room and every eye was on the pale skinned, raven haired, grey eyed boy. Grimmjow could see the lust in most of their eyes and he looked at the smaller boy. He gave him a look that said, 'I am right here with you.' and they went in and sat down at an empty table.

"You know that little bitch is mine right?" came a very deep and husky voice, Grimmjow looked up at him, the guy must have been around seven feet tall anfd weighted maybe 300 lbs, with a bald head and numurous tattoos. "The names Yammy and that as I just said he is mine." he said pointing at the young raven haired boy. Byakuya looked like he wanted to just dissapear and curled up next to Grimmjow and Grimmjow strangely felt the need to protect him, hey at least he felt something, he thought as a smirk came on his face.

"Well I seem to think you should move on now beause hes mine." he said, with a wild feral look in his eyes that made the much bigger man take a step back. "If you dont want any trouble id suggest you get the FUCK out of my face." he spat at the man.

Yammy looked like he was about to punch him in the face until the man that led him in to the building yesterday showed up. "We having a problem here Yammy?" he asked excitedly, almost like he wanted him to do something stupid just to give him an excuse to beat the shit out of the much bigger man.

"No worries Kenpachi. Theres no problem at all." the bigger man said. "I just wanted to explain to my new friend here the rules of this fine establishment." he said. The words seemed to eloquent to had come from such a idiot, Grimmjow thought to himself.

The rest of lunch went by realitivly smoothly. Byakuya looked up at Grimmjow, "Thanks..." he said some what awkwardly. Grimmjow looked down at him.

"Hey no problem I dont like guys like him. They think because their big they can do whatever they want, and dont worry he wont bother you as long as Im around." Grimmjow responded. 'I dont know what it is about this guy but hes making me feel and its kind of weird.' he thought to himself.

They where all sent back to their rooms, Byakuya sat down on the chair infront of the window and looked through the barred window. He missed his family, but thats why he was here wasnt it, he thought to himself, he couldnt put the past behind him.

Grimmjow couldnt sit still, he felt like doing something. He took his shirt off and put on a pair of sweatpants he had packed from his house, and started working out. It was a few hours before he stoped. It wasnt like he could do a whole lot, just the standard push ups and crunches, and when he was done Byakuya was still sitting in the chair looking out the window.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Grimmjow asked, 'Shit what the hell is wrong with me?' Grimmjow thought to himself, 'he just met me yesterday why would he want to talk to me about anything' he mentally hit himself.

"Im just.. I cant stop thinking about my family." he said quietly. "they are kind of the reason im here. Its hard for me to move on." he said so low it was almost a whisper.

"Look you dont have to talk about anything you dont want to. I get you just met me yesterday." Grimmjow said, sitting on his bed. The room wasnt that big, just one window, two beds with a little space inbetween and a chair.

Byakuya shook his head, "Its ok. We are room mates now, if I were you id ask to." he said finally looking at the man, his eyes ran over Grimmjows upper body and his face turned pink and looked back out the window quckly.

"So do you want to talk about your family?" Grimmjow asked, sitting down on the floor. He was genuinly interested and he still couldnt figure out what it was about this boy that drew him in so much.

"They.. they died, they where killed..." he whispered, Grimmjows face softened as it dawned on him why the boy was so broken. He was there when his parents died, Byakuya didnt have to say it for Grimmjow to know. Thats when two men came in to take Grimmjow for therapy.

"So tell me what you think of Byakuya?" Shunsui said. Looking Grimmjow in the eyes. The man had a very lazy vibe about him, he also seemed like a drunk. Grimmjow was used to drunks though.

"I dont really know." he said shrugging, not really a lie but not really the truth, and Shunsui picked up on that quickly.

"I have been working here a lot longer then youd think. I know when people only give me half truths." he said to the blue haired boy. "but I know how you stood up for him at lunch, Yammy is a pretty intimadating guy. Im surprised it didnt turn into a fight." he said honestly. Grimmjow looked at him.

"He wouldnt have walked away from that, even if I didnt beat him, it seemed like the one guard Kenpachi, he wanted a piece of Yammy as bad as he wanted a piece of Byakuya." Grimmjow said. And then he looked at Shunsui with the same feral look he gave Yammy earlier, "But he wouldnt have beat me."

"Of that I have no doubt." Shunsui said. He wouldnt put it past this guy to wipe the floor with Yammy. He read the arrest report, He almost killed five cops until one of them shot him in the knee. This guy was not someone to be taken lightly.

They talked for about another hour, Shunsui was just trying to get to know the basic facts, likes, dislikes, that kind of stuff, Grimmjow knew he was probably going to be in here for awhile so why not have someone to talk to. Then they took him back to his room and they asked Byakuya if he wanted to talk to Shunsui today, he nodded and they led him from the room.

"So Byakuya, how have you been?" Shunsui said. Byakuya had liked the man since he first came here. Thats not to say he just opened up to him, it took him awhile to say anything of actually importance to the much older man.

"Um, ive been okay." the ranven haired boy said, "Ive been thinking about them a lot lately." he said quietly. Shunsui nodded, he knew by 'them' he meant his family. "I miss them. I miss them a lot." he said looking at the ground now.

"Well you have been making a lot of progress my young friend. I know that you can overcome any boundry." he said with a smile on his face. "So what about your new room mate? How do you like him?" he asked. The boys eyes almost lit up if Shunsui didnt know any better.

"Hes great." he said with noticable enthusiasm. "He has been really nice and he even helped me out with that situation with Yammy." he said with an almost smile. The corners of his mouth twitched as if he wanted to smile but didnt know how to anymore

Shunsui was happy to hear that. "Well from what he told me he seems to like you to." he said and he noticed Byakuyas face turn a slight shade of pink but wrote it off as nothing. "Well I think we are done for today my young friend, Ill see you tomorrow if youre up to it." he said and Byakuya was escorted back to his room. When he got back he found Grimmjow asleep and he was fairly tired himself. so he laid down and fell asleep somewhat quickly, only to be awoken by his own screams.

"Are you ok?" Grimmjow asked sitting on the edge of Byakuyas bed. Tears were running down the raven haired boys face as he lunged at Grimmjow enveloping him into a vice grip like hug. Crying into his muscle shirt unsure of what to do he placed one hand on the boys back in a attempt to comfort him. "Its going to be ok. I'm here. I'm not going anywhere anytime soon." he whispered into the smaller boys ear.

While Byakuya could not stop crying he found it strangely comforting that Grimmjow was there.
