Here's another one, and this time, no one dies. I think…yeah, no one dies. So this is sort of a 'what if' one-shot, like, what if they'd actually been able to escape to the human world…don't read this unless you've read the other story all the way through…I haven't finished it yet, so actually, just stop here. And to those people who don't bother to read the author's notes…I apologize…

Watching the stars

Yuki was starting to get a little frustrated with Grimmjow keeping his hands over her eyes as he led her up a hill.

"Grimmjow, where are we going?" she asked again.

"I told you it's a surprise," he replied. Finally, he removed his hands and Yuki looked around. They were standing on a hill in the middle of an open field. The wind blew through the tall grass, making it look like dark, green waves in the moonlight.

"Grimmjow…"

"I told you we'd see the stars, didn't I?"

He flopped down on the hill's grassy slope, pulling Yuki down with him. He wrapped his arm around her shoulders, pulling her head gently against his chest.

"This is just like that night in the desert," Yuki commented, scooting closer to him. "Except we can actually see the stars."

"And there's no sand," Grimmjow added. "That's stuff's really annoying when it goes down your—."

He was cut off by Yuki laughing. Grimmjow moved his head so that it was sitting lightly on top of hers.

"I wish we could do this more often…"

"Well, we are supposed to be dead right?"

"Yuki, we're part hollow. We've been dead for years."

She punched him lightly in the side.

"No, I meant dead-dead. Nnoitra was supposed to have killed us remember? Aizen won't be trying to look for us for a while."

"Yeah, at least not until he picks up on our reiatsu…"

"…"

"…"

"We should do this every night."

Grimmjow looked at the small, former-Espada lying next to him. Her yellow eyes seemed to glow in the night.

"Yeah." He settled back down in the grass. "I'd like that…"

Hours passed with the two pointing out stars to each other and trying and re-trying many times to count them all. Finally, Yuki curled closer into Grimmjow. He rolled onto his side, wrapping his arms around her small form.

"I won't let anything hurt you again," he mumbled into her hair. "Promise."

So…that was kinda an ironic thing at the end if you looked at the previous one-shot…So this was really just fluff and Grimmjow fulfilling his promise to see the stars with her. It might not seem too special, but to two people who pretty much have gone most of their little arrancar lives with a starless sky, this is an amazing, beautiful sight…wow…that was kinda deep…
