A/N: Well, I'm back :) Yeah! another chapter! I'm sooo sorry for the wait but a series of rather unfortunate events (my whole house getting the flu, my computer being a bitch and my favorite tarantula dying) really delayed the process. I also re-wrote this chapter twice because I didn't like how it was going. But eh! It's done and hopefully ya'll will enjoy :)
Warning: big ol' lemon! ;)
Promise- Chapter 4.
It was almost noon when Renji and Ichigo finally stepped through the Senkaimon into the Seireitei, Ichigo looked around cautiously and sighed, relieved that there didn't seem to be anyone events from this morning were still fresh in his mind but he had unfinished business with his new lover and he was keen on delays. "You sure this is ok Renji, I mean I don't usually come here to just visit." He scratch the back of his head nervously following a step behind Renji.
"Oi, stop worrying so much. I sent word ahead explaining everything, it'll be fine." Renji tugged on Ichigo's sleeve so they could walk side by side but that was all. He knew the orange head wasn't in a hurry to go through another reveal so he fought back to urge to wrap his around him like he had done all morning. Ichigo would only be staying with him for a short while before he had to go back to the living world so he wanted to touch him as much as possible during that time.
"What the hell Renji! What do you mean you explained everything?" Ichigo growled in mortification.
"Tch, Ichigo you really need to relax. I said you wanted to train with me and Ikkaku this week-end and that'd you'd be staying with me while you here." Renji grinned widely.
"Damn, you really are a clever bastard aren't you." Ichigo was actually impressed by Renji's good planning. "When the hell did that happen?"
Renji punched Ichigo on the shoulder and laughed it off. "Shut up!" If Renji was honest about it, he was surprised at himself as well since he generally didn't go through the trouble of thinking so far ahead. However, he really wanted this time alone with Ichigo, to know him as more than a friend. He had been forced to think of a reasonable explanation to bring Ichigo back with him without getting themselves in trouble. "By the way, we'll have to pass the 10th division barracks to get to mine so we might run into Matsumoto." The red head chuckled when Ichigo made a choking sound. "Don't worry she's probably sleeping one off again but you never know. If you want we can just shunpo there, personally the sooner I get you to my place, the better." Ichigo blushed when Renji's voice dropped a few octaves and nodded in agreement, without hesitation both men took off in a flash with Renji leading the way.
It didn't take very long for them the reach the 6th Division's barracks and Ichigo was amazed that so far they hadn't met anyone he knew, it seemed to good to be true. "Alright, almost there, try to keep up. I don't need ya getting lost or something." Renji chuckled when Ichigo glared back at him but still followed orange head scowled while following, he didn't know what to say and his stomach felt tense. As they entered the building Ichigo noticed Renji's demeanor change, the red heads back straightened and his shoulders squared, it was almost impossible but he seemed even taller this way and his grin was replaced by stern expression. There were alot more people here than Ichigo had anticipated but as he followed Renji through the various corridors of the 6th Division it became obvious that no one would bother them. Everyone gave them a wide berth, nodding or bowing politely as they passed, welcoming their fukutaicho back and giving the Substitute Shinigami proper greetings. Ichigo was pleased to see that Renji treated his men with respect, returning the greetings and it was clear that the people in his squad returned that respect. When they reached the end a of particular hallway Renji stopped and look around curiously.
"Oi, Rikishi! I know you're around here, get over here." Renji voice boomed through the small hall making Ichigo roll his eyes. A dark haired youth with charcoal eyes came screeching around the corner stopping himself short a few feet away from them.
"Abarai-Fukutaicho! You're back early, is something wrong?" Rikishi looked up concerned and took notice of Ichigo presence, his eyes going wide. "Oh! Kurosaki-sama, I'm sorry I didn't see you there. Hello." Ichigo's eyebrow hitch up at the youth's use of honorific.
"Nothing's wrong, just decided to bring Ichigo back with me for the rest of my leave so I could train him up a bit." Renji chuckled inside and wondered if he'd get a smack for that one."Listen Rikishi, I need a favor?" Ichigo was a bit taken aback by the scene, the youth was bursting with barely restrained jubilation.
"Of course anything!" An excited smile stretching across Rikishi's face. Ichigo's scowl deepened, a few days ago he probably wouldn't have noticed how Rikishi looked at Renji adoringly but now he felt a strange pressure in his chest and his fists bawled up tightly fighting the urge to close the distant between Renji and himself.
"Ichigo and I are gonna be catching up for a while and I don't want anyone bothering us. Unless it's an emergency or Kuchiki-Taicho, I don't want anyone at my door. Understood?" Renji did his best to keep a straight face. He felt a little bad for taking advantage of the boy's admiration this way but he knew Rikichi would do as he asked and not ask any questions.
"Yes, sir!" The boy was almost glowing he so pleased that Renji had asked him for favor. Ichigo on the other hand was slowly getting a sick feeling in his guts and felt a jolt of anger when Renji put his hand on Rikishi's shoulder.
"Thanks Rikishi, see ya later." Renji gave the kid a smile and turned nodding to Ichigo for them to get going but paused slightly at the dark aura radiating from the younger man. "Oi, Ichigo. My place is just around the corner, let's go." He reached out and lightly took hold of his bicep, the change was almost instantaneous, like flicking a switch, Ichigo was back to himself.
"Well this is it. Home sweet home or whatever." Just as Renji had said, his quarters were indeed right around the corner and the two men made their way into the main room with sighs of relief, the strange feeling that had gripped Ichigo almost forgotten. He slung Zangetsu off his back, motioning to Renji, wordlessly asking were he should put his zanpakuto. Renji looked around for a bit. "Well, when I do put Zabimaru down its usually by the bed, you can do the same if you'd like but right side's mine." Renji nodded in the direction Ichigo assumed the bedroom to be located.
The tightness in Ichigo stomach intensified, What the hell is wrong me, what am I, a fucking school girl? Man up Ichigo! He scolded himself before nodding and making his way around Renji's quarters. The place was pretty sparse but it was clean and Ichigo breath in deeply and sighed inwardly appreciating how Renji's smell permeated the room. He slid the shoji aside and assessed Renji bedroom, I'm really in his room, he licked his lips stepping into the room further. Like the main room this one was also unadorned but clean, there was only a dresser and queen size futon, Ichigo stared at the bed hungrily as images of the previous night filled his mind.
"You gonna tell me what that was all about back in the hall?" Ichigo jumped slightly, Renji had snuck right behind him and had whispered in his ear making a shiver run right down his center.
"Uh? I don't know what you're talking 'bout? Ren-!" Ichigo sucked in a breath when the red head slid a large calloused hand into the top of his Shihakusho, fingers lightly dragging across the younger mans chest. The orange head moaned quietly pushing himself back against the tall form behind him, enjoying the heat radiating from his lover. "Don't think you can distract me Renji!' He accused, pulling himself forward, Ichigo had noticed how the older man was developing a habit of trying to seduce him when he was upset. He walked towards the left side of the bed, propping Zangetsu against the wall before throwing himself backwards onto the bed. The orange head stared intently at the ceiling, "I should be kicking your ass for that crack about 'training me up'! I can kick your ass from one end of the Seireitei to other and you fucking know it!" He shot a murderous glare towards the red head but it was met with laughter as the other sat next to him.
"First of all, don't get so cocky! It's been a long time since we've actually sparred together besides that's not really what I meant when I told Rikishi that." The slight change in Ichigo features at the mention of the young shinigami's name wasn't missed. "You're kinda cute when you're jealous, scary, but cute." Renji's huge shit-eater grin didn't last long as Ichigo's leg had stretch out and around firmly landing a blow to the red heads gut. However Ichigo hadn't counted on Renji actually catching his leg in a vise like grip. "Ichigo, I was just trying to give ya compliment." The red head added in his defence all the while marveling at the others flexibility.
"I'm a guy damn it! Guy's aren't supposed to be cute! Or get jealous!" The younger man growled while trying to ignore the hand the had slipped into the leg of his hakama. A shiver ran up his leg and a familiar heat began to pool into abdomen has warm fingers grazed the underside of his knee in a foreign yet pleasurable way. He tried to growl again to prove, mostly to himself, that he couldn't be so easily swayed but his body betrayed once more and growl was more of a choked out moan. He knew he should be kicking the crap out the big red head but his hormones had other ideas, other needs that were quickly demanding to be met.
Renji's throaty chuckle resonated around the small room. "Ichigo, you're an uke. Ukes can be cute you know but you have nothing to be jealous about." He added sincerely keeping a firm old on his lovers leg since the youth had started to struggle in indignation. "Tch, Ichigo, I told you before. I've wanted you for a very long time, I'm not letting you go." The orange head stopped struggling briefly taken aback by the possible meaning of those words.
"What are you saying?" Ichigo had a pretty clear idea of what Renji was trying to say but it was funny watching the red head's sudden embarrassment clearly coming across his angular face. He shifted his position on the bed, letting his leg slip further into Renji hold and pulled himself up so that he was now straddling the lust filled eyes Ichigo pressed himself against his lover and kissed him feverishly, he was rewarded by a pair of large hands taking a rough hold of his behind, savoring the sensation he snaked his hands up the red heads back and reaching for the crimson braid. The orange head brows creased slightly while trying to free the locks so he could run his fingers trough the thick mane. Reluctantly he broke their kiss with a gasping breath and frowned. "Damn it Renji, you undo the damn thing!" Ichigo was getting impatient, he wanted to fool around more but he was painfully aware of how hard he already was, not mention the way Renji's own erection could be easily felt between the fabric of their hakama's.
The red head's hands unpried themselves from the firm bottom they had been cupping and deftly moved up. Ichigo watched longingly at surprisingly nimble fingers quickly loosened the braid, long crimson locks spilling out as the burgundy bandana was tossed aside. "Satisfied?" Renji whispered huskily, lightly brushing his lips down the orange head's neck, nipping at his collar bone. Upon hearing Ichigo's moaning approval he reached up and slipped Ichigo's top off of his shoulders letting the garment pool on the ground beside the bed. He set his hands firmly on the oranges heads hips, yanking him down and rocking their hard members together. Renji set his mouth to explore his lovers chest, quickly finding the left nipple and flicking his tongue over it. The reaction was quick and intense, Ichigo yanked hard on his hair to pull their faces back together and while resting their foreheads together and golden brown eyes fixed on burgundy, the younger man ground himself harshly into Renji chest.
"You're wearing too much clothing." Ichigo accused between pants. "Strip or I'll rip it off you!" He could see the red head was a bit surprised by his eagerness but he couldn't wait anymore. Pushing the other man down onto the mattress and scooting down so he could stand to undo his oby and let his hakama fall off of his narrowed hips. He let out a sigh of relief at the feeling of being freed from the confines of his clothing and watched eagerly as Renji hopped off the bed as well and followed suit, letting his uniform fall soundlessly around him. The orange head was panting heavily, devouring the sight of the naked man standing proudly before him. "Gods Renji, you're amazing." He hadn't really noticed the words had actually come out but he didn't care because it was true. Renji was glorious to look at, it made his mind foggy and his blood sing, he remembered how it had felt when the man took him last night. The feel of the muscles tensing, the warm mouth that had brought him so close to the edge. At the sudden memory Ichigo followed his impulse, he wanted to make his lover feel the same way he had. With a sly smile he slowly approached the other feeling the burning gaze making his insides squirm in the distant between was all but gone Ichigo reached out and let his hands trail over Renji stomach and strained his head up for a heated kiss. Parting his lips he let the taller man's tongue slick into mouth, enjoying the flavour and groaning regretfully at having to break the kiss once more but he wanted to do this for his lover. "Sit down Renji." He tried to sound cool and collected as the man complied silently even though he was everything but at the moment.
"Ichigo?" The tall read head was curious of what his inexperienced partner could have in mind, he had decided to give the reins over to Ichigo since he seemed so eager to take control both this morning and now. He noticed the deep blush across Ichigo face, he seemed very determined and Renji recalled he had had a similar expression when he had insisted that Renji take him. It appeared the younger man had decided he wanted to do something and was not going to waver, the excitement the red head felt surged as the orange head cautiously fell to his knees and scooted himself between his knees. Renji sat entranced when a steady hand slowly yet gently wrapped itself around his pulsing member. "Ichi-?" He wasn't able to finish asking his question as the youth tightened the hold on his base and gingerly licked the sensitive head. His moan was loud and the excitement was very apparently in the tone. "Gods ya!"
Ichigo had been well aware that Renji was larger than average after last night but now that he was facing the large throbbing member so closely the task he had set for himself seemed a little more than he may be able to handle. Once his hand had wrapped itself tightly around the base he marveled at the heat and softness of it, his brain fogging again desperate to feel that heat inside him once more. He moved in closer, curiosity driving him forward as his tongue darted out and coated the weeping tip with his own warm saliva. He wasnt sure what he expected the taste to be like, he'd overheard a lot of girls say it wasnt' very pleasant, but he found he actually enjoyed the taste and scent so he dove further down, letting his mouth wrap itself tentatively around Renji. The moans and pleasurable groans slipping from the red head ignited a fire inside him, his arousal climbing higher with every sound of pleasure he coaxed out of Renji. It took him a few tries to get the right balance between setting a rhythm, swallowing and breathing but he eventually stop trying to think about how he was doing and let his body move seemingly of its own volition. Not wanting his jaw to tire to quickly from the new activity he slowly retract his mouth, however the moment his lips left the hard shaft he heard a small whimper from above. Chancing a look at his lover, Ichigo grinned shamelessly at the sight of the man panting heavily above him, he could tell Renji didn't want him to stop. Pride swelled inside Ichigo at realizing he was the cause of the red head's flushed face and panting breaths. The orange head loosened his grip and opened his hand enough so he could take a long slow lick from base to tip before swallowing the large erection as far back he could.
"Ngh, Ichigo!" Renji couldn't beleive Ichigo was actually deep-throating him, no one he had ever been with had been able to do that before. It felt amazing, never in his wildest dreams had he dared hope that the young orange head would be sucking on him with such force. At first the youth had been unsure, setting a slow pace and was careful to not go too deeply but he was indeed a quick learner and was now taking almost all of Renji's length aggressively. The red head gripped the side of the bed tightly doing his best not to interfere with the others ministrations, he resisted the urge to buck his hips when his felt the tightness begin to coil deep inside. "God Ichigo I'm gonna cum if you dont stop." He had thought this warning would force the other stop, not that he wanted him too, but instead it spurred the young man further. Renji watched in wonder as Ichigo increased his speed and the pressure inside his mouth, swallowing greedily. There was no warning when the red head came, he growled loudly unable to restrain himself, his hips flicked forward pushing deeper and spilling himself in the orange heads mouth.
Ichigo eyes snapped open as he struggled to swallow everything Renji gave and not choke. After releasing the red head still hard member from his mouth he took a few deep breath while whiping the excess drool from his chin. "How was that?" The orange head asked quietly gazing up to meet eyes that burned with lust. His answer was low rumble from the red head before strong arms reached down and swiftly lifted him off the ground and back onto the others lap. Ichigo felt Renji's arms wrap tightly around his waist and his mouth was assaulted suddenly, the sensation was strange on the younger mans numb lips but the need spilling through the kiss was intense. He was beginning to think the red head had come completely undone and was now operating on pure desire, the coils of reiatsu had begun flaring off his partner a clear sign the Renji wasn't in firm control of himself. Ichigo wondered what would happen if he tried to meet each flare with own as he rocked himself against the other, the resulting surges seemed to magnify all their sensations. The mixture of hot, soft and hard as the two shafts rubbed together had him moaning wantonly. He whimpered longingly when his lover broke the kiss but his heart skipped a beat as he watched the red head slip two of his fingers inside his own mouth, quickly coating them with spit and then reaching down for the oranges head entrance. The youth felt the free hand grab his ass firmly pushing him up higher on the other mans chest, he reached into crimson locks holding on tightly as the first digit gently made its way in. "Ahhh!" The orange head exclaimed with relief, finally getting closer to his goal. "More Renji!" He ordered breathlessly after a few strokes, anxious to feel the large member pumping into him. He felt the red heads mouth kissing a light trail down his neck, the scrapping of teeth, a gurgled shout tore out of Ichigo as he felt the other man clamp down harshly in the hollow of neck while slipping in the second finger.
Renji pumped his fingers in and out of the tight hole, his left hand parting the others cheeks, he was grabbing said cheek so hard there would surely be bruises visible later. His mind was focused on one goal and it was to make Ichigo grumble with bliss, to overwhelming him and possess him completely. He knew they would need extra lubrication soon but the small bottle was located on the other of room in his dresser. The red head growled deeply when his partner tugged harshly on his hair snapping his head back to lock him passionate kiss. After a few moments of hesitation he let his fingers slip out of the warmth ignoring Ichigo's complaints he steadied the younger man tightly against his chest and easily rose to his feet. He let a chuckle loose at the orange heads not so manly yelp, his long legs making the trip quickly he sat the other on the desk, all the while never letting go of the kiss they were locked into. Blindly searching for the small bottle oil, he grinned inside the kiss when he finally found it. "Soon, Ichi, just gimme a sec." He ignored the youth impatient groan, rushing to unscrew the cap, not caring if he spilled some he quickly coated himself. "Finnaly, come here!" Renji hooked his arms under Ichigo's thighs lifting the smaller man back up in the air before slamming him into the wall.
Ichigo sucked in a quick breath at the shock of the cold wall he was suddenly pushed against. "Gods yes Renji, take me!" He had no idea where that had come from, all he knew was he had an entire mornings worth of frustration that was finally going to come to completion. He locked his arms tightly around the red heads corded neck, briefly seeing stars as the hot tip breached his opening. "Nnnyaahh!" He moaned blissfully at the familiar feeling of being stretched around Renji's rock hard cock. His thighs burned slightly from the slightly awkward position but pleasure of being filled to the hilt was so overwhelming it hardly registered. Ichigo was pinned tightly between the wall and the red heads muscled chest, he buried his face in that chest panting heavily and moaning loudly as each stroke rammed deeper and harder into him. He was thankful for his stamina, holding on with all he had as he tried to rock his trapped member between them. "Harder!" He roared in desperation, sweat pouring off both of them, he was getting so close. Incoherent sounds tumbled out of the pair, feverishly racing to reach their peak, they ignored the knocks from the outside and the framed that crashed on the dresser.
Pounding into to smaller man with abandon, Renji focused all his strength on meeting his lovers demands. He never paused, he completely ignored the world outside pressing himself harder and deeper into Ichigo chasing the high that was right there. He had no idea how long they had been had it, time had seemed to slip away but judging that his strength was starting to wane he knew it had been a rather long while. "Almost there Ichi." He managed to rasp out between heavy breaths. The sound of the youth almost screaming in ecstasy told him he was also close. A few more flicks of his hips and the orange head tighten unmercifully around him, he felt the hot liquid coat his stomach and chest. Finally, at the sound of his name being screamed out he came hard, ramming himself deeply a few more times ignoring the seed that had overflowed, now dripping onto the floor. Renji gently set Ichigo down while still holding him tightly, looking down at half closed eyes and flushed cheeks he knew the orange was falling asleep already. "C'mon Ichi, let's have a nap. We can clean up later." He voice came out as a gentle whisper, he was exhausted as well and resting for a while with his lover in his arms seemed like the perfect way to end this particular session. Both men slowly trudged towards the bed, collapsing noisily over the covers. The red head laid on his side and reached for the other, tucking the orange head snuggly against himself and drapped his arm protectively over the smaller form. Renji smiled contentedly watching Ichigo drift to sleep in his arms, he still couldn't believe his luck, having the young shinigami as partner was a dream come true and he wouldn't let anything ruin that. Soon the couple slept deeply, oblivious to the shouts coming from outside.
