New Friends
Renji walked into Byakuya's very quiet office with a giant smile on his face he had achieved both of his lifelong dreams -well only one of them is a lifelong dream but whatever.
"Hello Capt.." Renji paused he doesn't know what to call him anymore. "Bya..Captain Kuchiki? What do I call you now that you're not my captain anymore."
Byakuya smirked "Captain Kuchiki, your name changes not mine."
Renji shrugged his shoulder "Still cool" Renji sat on Byakuya's desk "So what you call me over here for?"
"Well we have been dating for a few days and I think we should tell our squads just to make sure they're okay with it."
"And if they aren't?'
Byakuya shrugged his shoulders "I don't know I'm just making sure they're on my side I don't really care if they don't like it half of them don't like me."
"I wouldn't say half more like a third."
"Really? That's a lot less than I expected."
"All of them may not like you but they all respect you."
"They better I don't care of you like me or not but you're going to respect me."
"What if they don't respect you after this? I don't want you to lose squad members because of me."
"That is so cute Renji" Byakuya leaned up and kissed Renji cheek "but if they stop respecting me because I'm with a man then they never respected me in the first place."
"I never thought of it that way" Renji got off Byakuya's desk and stretched his back "Lets go then."
Byakuya stood up and walked outside the office grabbing Renji's hand on the way out. When they got to the battle grounds where Squad Six was told to meet up. Byakuya stood up on the podium set up there so he could speak holding Renji's hand the whole time.
When the squad was quiet Byakuya spoke. "As you know my ex-lieutenant Renji Abari is now Captain of Squad Five" he waited for the cheers to end "but what you may not know is that Renji and I are dating and I just wanted to tell you so you'd know." Byakuya turned to leave but Renji stopped him
"That's all you're goin to say?" Renji whispered
"Yeah...oh wait" he said out loud "And anyone who disagrees with my decision or has something against two men being together please remember that I don't care."
Renji face palmed and looked at Byakuya "I thought you were giving a speech" he whispered loudly
"I did"
Renji was going to say something back but noticed someone had a question "Yes, sir you have a question."
"Yeah" a man said from the second row of squad members "So when the captain is being really hard on us like harder than usual can we blame that on you?"
Everyone looked at Renji expectantly including Byakuya "Um.." Renji thought "I guess"
The man shrugged his shoulders "That's fine with us."
"Good" Byakuya said "Now lets go I have work to do."
"I like having a lieutenant you can make em do all the work." Renji said grinning
"Too bad my lieutenant did nothing."
"Hey."
Byakuya rolled his eyes "So how is Ichigo as a lieutenant?"
"He's not that bad all that school work paid off he's still a little grouchy about me not telling him about it though."
"Well you did kind of spring it on him last minute."
After Byakuya was cleared from the fourth division Renji's Coating ceremony began. Every captain and their lieutenant lined up on their respective sides odds on the left and evens on the right, Ichigo, Shiro, Yorichi,and Kisuke were there as well Yorichi standing next to Soi Fon and Kisuke standing next to Mayuri Ichigo and Shiro stood at the end of both lines across form each other, the Head Captain stood at the head of the lines and for this ceremony Renji stood in the middle of everyone waiting for his captain's coat, he couldn't keep the kid-at-the-candy-store grin off his face.
"Attention" Head Captain Yamamoto started "We are here today to present Renji Abari with his captain's coat and give him squad five for he has earned it. He has passed his captains exam with flying colors and had defeated his captain winning 2 out of 3 battle against him." Everyone looked at Byakuya waiting for him to say something but instead he just opened his mouth but said nothing figuring he'd just tell Renji later. "I, as Head Captain and Commander of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, give you, Renji Abari, all of Squad Five and who do you choose to be your lieutenant?"
Renji smiled "I choose Ichigo Kurosaki."
Ichigo's head popped up when he heard his name "I'm sorry, what?"
"I want you to be my lieutenant" Renji said matter-of-factly
Ichigo scratched his head and looked around. "I thought captains and lieutenants were supposed to be opposites. Like you and Byakuya and Toshiro and Rangiku and what the fuck Renji you didn't even tell me."
"Wells its not like you know what to do with your life anyway." Renji said
Ichigo opened his mouth but said nothing and then shrugged his shoulders "I guess you're right"
"So?"
"Alright but I'm not doin all the paper work it has to be equal I will fuck you up in front of your squad."
"Our squad" Renji corrected
"Is it my squad too?" Shiro said trying to fit in as usual
"Sure" Renji said
Byakuya smiled thinking of the ceremony as tradition it is the captain you battled who puts the captain's coat on your back and when Byakuya gave Renji his coat he kissed his cheek knowing everyone saw but realizing he didn't care. He knew he'd be a lot happier knowing that everyone knew he was with Renji.
"Hey babe" Renji said when they got back to Byakuya's office
"Yes"
"Would you like to go to dinner with me and my friends tonight?"
"Do I have a choice?"
"Not really"
"Can I bring Yorichi?"
"Of course. I thought you hated her."
"I just think its fair if I bring someone with me to be around the peanut gallery" Byakuya smirked
"Hey I found out what that means and that's mean." Renji said with a fake glare.
Byakuya laughed "Well you're apart of the peanut gallery too."
Renji's jaw dropped "That's mean"
Byakuya kissed Renji's cheek "What time is dinner?"
Renij rolled his eyes "8"
"Okay I'll see you then."
"Yay" Yorichi said as she walked with Byakuya to the half bar half restaurant Renji and his friends usually went to. "Bya-boo's got a date"
Byakuya rolled his eyes "It's not a date if you're coming"
"Whatever"
They walked into the bar and looked for Renji and his friends he suspected Renji saw them walk in and waved them over. Byakuya smiled and waved back pulling Yorichi with him towards the table.
"Okay guys be nice" Renji said when he saw Byakuya and Yorichi walking over to them
"I'll be nice if he's nice" Ikkaku said
"We'll all be respectful" Yumichika said after hitting Ikkaku in the head
"Good evening, Renji" Byakuya said "and friends" he said when Yorichi jabbed him in the ribs with her elbow
"My friends have names" Renji said when Byakuya sat down next to him and Yorichi sat down next to him
"Hi friend" Yorichi said with a big grin when she sat next to Shiro
"Oh God no" Byakuya huffed looking at them he turned to Renji "I know your friends have names."
"You know their first names."
"Yes"
"What's my name?" Ikkaku said
"Loud brute" Byakuya said back "Ouch" he said when Renji flicked him in the head "Did you just flick me?" he punched Renji's arm "Don't flick me."
"Ouch" he punched Byakuya back "Don't act like an asshole to my friends."
"I'm not being an ass to your friends just that one" he pointed to Ikkaku "And if you punch me again I swear you'll be kissing the wall."
"Why don't you like Ikkaku" Shuhei asked
"I don't like anyone from the 11th, they don't like me I don't like them"
"That's not true" Yumichika said crossing his arms
"Well not you. Your more respectful plus you're not as ugly as the rest." Byakuya smirked
"Hey" Ikkaku said with a growl towards Byakuya
Renji laughed "Told you you was ugly" Renji stopped laughing and turned to Byakuya "I almost forgot I think I have a lieutenant for you."
Byakuya lifted an eyebrow "Who?"
"Yumi" Renji said with a smile. Everyone looked at Renji including Yumichika who had no idea Renji thought about this. "He comes to work on time, he does paperwork, he's excellent in battle, and he has bankai and if he can lead squad 11 members he can certainly lead squad 6 members. The only con of him being your lieutenant is he's married to Ikkaku."
Byakuya put a finger to his chin as he thought. "He comes to work on time?" Renji nodded "And he does paperwork?" he nodded again "That's already better than my old lieutenant" Renji glared at Byakuya and he laughed "That's a great idea Renji but there's this giant con here" he gestured to Ikkaku "If I made Yumichika my lieutenant then he would be around a lot."
"I could be your lieutenant" Yorichi said
"Yumichika it is" Byakuya said quickly
Renji turned to said man "Yumi?"
Yumichika looked down at his hands then at Byakuya, he held his hand out and Byakuya grabbed it and shook "I'll be at work tomorrow on time."
"Good"
"Well now that we're done with business lets get some drinks." Shiro said
"Yeah lets get the ice princess drunk" Ikkaku said glaring at Byakuya
"I'm not getting drunk tonight but I will have some drinks"
After a few drinks Byakuya and Renji's friends were getting along nicely and Renji was very happy about that.
"So Byakuya what happen to your hair two years ago don't get me wrong the short look was nice on you I just wanna know what happen." Shuhei asked
"You should ask Yorichi about that." Byakuya answered glaring at her
"Okay well" She started "I like to play in Bya-boo's hair but I can only play with it when he's sleeping cuz he'll bite me."
"I never bit you"
"That's cuz you're too slow" She smirked when Byakuya glared at her "So anyway I was chewing gum and I was playing in his hair and then the gum fell out and I said 'oh no'"
"He didn't wake up" Ichigo asked
"No in certain circumstances he sleeps very heavily like if he fell asleep right now we could be as loud as we wanted to but if you walk by him he'll be up instantly like if the floor is stepped on he'll wake up. Back to my story so the gum falls and it starts sticking to the other strands so I get the scissors and cut it out and then I roll him over and comb it out to see how it looks. It looks ugly so I cut the rest so it looks a little better and then I leave cuz he was going to kill me in the morning."
"He didn't kill you though" Ichigo said
"Well his wonderful maid Chitose fixed it and it looked great so he didn't kill me."
"I thought all the help worked for the house? Why would they cut hair?" Ichigo wondered
"Chitose isn't just some maid" Renji said "She's awesome. She does everything. She's like super woman or something and she's the one of the few people who don't act like they're better than me when I visit."
"I have to talk to the help about that because you'll be over a lot more now" Byakuya said to Renji
Renji lifted an eyebrow "Really? Can I come over tonight?"
"Sure"
Renji grinned "I can't wait for this night to be over"
"Hey hey hey" Rukia said "There will be no funny business I don't wanna hear anything"
"Don't worry" Byakuya said "We aren't having sex yet"
Ikkaku spit out the sake he was drink "Renji Abari ain't fuckin? Since when does that happen?"
"Since I'm in a relationship" Renji glared at him
Ikkaku shook his head "Changin already"
"Oh you're one to talk about changing, Kaku" Renji said "when you married Yumi you started goin to bed early and goin to work early too."
"And he briefly stopped cussin too" Rangiku said
"And he stopped eating with his hands" Kira said
Ikkaku rolled his eyes "Whatever bitches"
"Don't be mad Kaku" Renji cooed "Its okay to change for the one you love. Just don't change into a little bitch."
"I have a feeling you're goin to turn into a little bitch." Ikkaku said
"What! That's crazy"
"I mean Renji" Yumi said "At one point in time you were his bitch"
"Hey" Byakuya said "He didn't do everything I wanted him to like paperwork and showing up to work on time."
"I was never your bitch" Renji said to him
"I didn't say you were my bitch" Byakuya pouted "You keep yelling at me you will be though." he growled
"And how would you do that?" Renji crossed his arms
"You just wait til we start having sex."
"What does that mean?"
"Renji" Shuhei said "Just know you'll be his bitch when you start fuckin its how it works."
"What do you mean that's how it works?"
"Typically when you're in a relationship you have to bow down just a little to get what you want" Yumi said trying to make Renji understand "Everyone does it the more dominate one just does it more."
"This is bullshit." Renji huffed
"Red it's like this" Ikkaku said "If you do what he wants he's happy and when he's happy he has sex with you, and if you force the sex that's rape. Or you could think of it like this: they don't fuck you, you go else where, they find out, they kill you and not just like murder but like snatching your finger nails out your fingers."
"Thank you Ikkaku that helps" Renji said "but I'm still not bowing down to him."
Byakuya smirked, leaned over and whispered in Renji's ear. "I wanna go home. I haven't given head in a long time and I need some practice."
"Dinner's over everybody go home" Renji said standing up he grabbed Byakuya hand "Lets go home. I gotta take you home."
"What this dinner was your idea" Ikkaku said
"Well now it's over"
"What the fuck did he promise you? Head?" Shiro asked. Renji grinned "Oh okay, bye"
Byakuya and Renji were sitting on Byakuya's couch in his master bedroom making out. Byakuya was straddling Renji and rocking back and forth driving Renji crazy so to stop it he flipped them so Byakuya was under him.
"Look, babe" Renji said pulling away laughing when Byakuya whined "If we're not having sex certain things can't happen"
Byakuya kissed Renji's neck before responding "Like what?" he bit his neck and began sucking the same spot.
Renji bit his lip and pushed Byakuya down so he'd stop teasing him. "Like making out and grinding on me at the same time. I get hard very easily especially when I'm making out with someone as sexy as you."
"Well, Renji, I did promise you something at the bar."
"I thought you said that so you could go home."
Byakuya smirked "A promise is a promise." Byakuya leaned up to kiss Renji and then flipped them on the couch so he was on top. He kissed down Renji's neck opening the top half of his shihakusho and kissing down his chest getting closer and closer to that special head down below.
Renji was getting nervous he felt like he was pushing Byakuya to do something he wasn't ready to do. "Hey, you don't have to do this if you don't want." Byakuya looked up at Renji but instead of responding he reached inside Renji's shihakusho and pulled his dick out grinning when Renji hissed from the cold air hitting him. Byakuya kept eye contact with Renji while he stuck his tongue out and licked the head. "Oh fuck" Renji said through clenched teeth.
"You can be loud, Renji" Byakuya teased "You won't be punished for it."
Before Renji could say anything back to his clever boyfriend said boyfriend licked his shaft from base to tip and then proceeded to deep throat him holding what he couldn't reach in his hand. He bobbed his head up and down moaning when Renji reached down and grabbed his hair. He reached down to pump himself. He could feel Renji coming close and decided to slow down smirking when Renji cursed and tried to force his head down so he'd go faster. He ran his teeth up Renji's dick and Renji's hands moved quickly off his head. Byakuya bobbed up and down a few more times and just when Renji was about to cum he pulled away and held the tip with his hand.
"What the..." Renji cursed but was cut off when Byakuya kissed him and just when Renji was getting into it he pulled away and finished Renji's off swallowing all of his fluids. "You swallowed?" Renji said breathing heavily
Byakuya grinned and sat up to straddle Renji. "Spitters are quitters, Renji."
Renji laughed "You are nasty and I am goin to looooove being with you."
Byakuya smiled and leaned down to kiss Renji "I'm sleepy. Lets go to bed." he stood up, grabbed Renji's had, and pulled him to his bed.
"You want me to sleep over?" Renji said sitting down on the bed
Byakuya looked at Renij confused while he stripped down to his underwear, happy he wore them today "Of course I want you to sleep over. You're my boyfriend."
"Right" Renji said also stripping "I have to get used to that I'm not used to being in a relationship." he sighed then shook his head "Which side do you like to sleep on?"
"The side closest to the door leading to the garden." he said climbing into bed smiling when Renji crawled up next to him. They laid down next to one another but Byakuya didn't feel comfortable. "Renji?"
"Yes?"
"Do you mind if I lay on you? It may not seem like it but I enjoy cuddling and I don't feel comfortable without touching someone."
Renji laughed nervously "Actually I was gonna ask you that same thing." Byakuya smiled and moved to lay on Renji "Could you move up just a little?" Byakuya moved up higher on Renji's chest so his head was right under his chin and when Renji's hand fit perfectly on Byakuya's ass he grinned "Perfect".
Byakuya smirked and then fell asleep finally content with how things were going in his life.
"No. No. No. Please" Byakuya whined in his sleep stirring Renji awake "No, please wake up. Please wake up." he begged in his sleep. Rolled off Renji and tossed and turned "Please, wake up. Daddy needs you to wake up. Please wake up. Not you."
Renji sat up and looked over to Byakuya seeing he was having a nightmare he tried to wake him up. "Bya" he reached out to shake him "Bya, wake up."
"Please I love you. Wake up. I need you. Daddy needs you"
"Bya" Renji yelled waking him up finally.
Byakuya sat up breathing heavily he looked at Renji and then put his head in his hands. "I'm not crazy, I swear." he said into his hands
Renji rubbed his back "I don't think you're crazy. Do you mind telling me what that dream was about and who you're calling daddy?"
Byakuya rubbed his neck and looked up at Renji making sure he looked him in the eye "Me. I'm daddy." He sighed "Before Hisana died she gave birth to our son." he began to cry "I guess whatever illness she had passed onto our son and...um...he died a month later."
Renji pulled him in for a hug "Baby, that's terrible." he rubbed his back in circular motions.
"He used to cry a lot and to get him to stop I would walk around with him in the garden til he fell asleep and that night...he...he...he died in my arms." he cried on to Renji's shoulder"And I just couldn't take it. I couldn't lose him too. I just...I can't"
"Shh" Renji said pulling Byakuya into his lap "Its okay, don't cry."
"I just feel like I've lived a thousand times over and every lifetime ends the same way." he cried. Renji held him tighter but Byakuya pulled back so he could look Renji in the eye "Renji...I need you to promise me something."
"Okay whatever you need."
"I need you to promise me that you'll never leave me alone. I want you to promise me that no matter how we feel about one another whether we make it or not that you will always be there for me. I need someone to be there for me because I don't think I can be alone for one more minute." he looked down at his hands "I don't want to sound weak but I just can't take it any more."
Renji lifted Byakuya's head and kissed him softly "You're stronger than I thought you were." he kissed his forehead and pulled him in for a hug holding him close "I promise to never leave you alone."
Byakuya has tons of baggage. Can Renji deal with it? I hope so.
Please review.
