CHAPTER 7: Sex, Glitter and Making up.
Renji cursed the fact that he was in pain as he watched Byakuya's recently acquired shirt slip down over his perfect shoulders. His muscles flexed as his arms bent backwards to let it fall to the ground in a soundless heap of silky smooth fabric.
Renji really hadn't noticed when or where Byakuya had acquired some clothing along the timeline of the morning but he was happy to see that it was being discarded just as quickly as it was put on.
Without tearing his eyes off of the other who was now slipping out of silky boxers, Renji stepped carefully out of the tub and onto the fluffy mat that sat in front of it. The fibred slipped in between his toes and his skin; swollen with heat, felt like it was finally able to breathe.
Byakuya beckoned him once again with an outstretched finger which curled; drawing him towards the other with an invisible thread. His toes left the comfort of the padded carpet and stepped onto chilled tile. He wished his bathroom was this big. His bathtub and shower were one with each other…
Byakuya stepped into the shower; the frosted glass hiding part of his form as he turned to the tap and got the shower head started. Renji limped along, finally making it into the shower as well and he closed the door behind him.
The shower was almost round inside and it was more like a room than a shower. He actually had a bit of freedom to walk around; he'd just have to be careful to not run into the walls which were now quickly becoming hidden by the rising steam caused from hot water hitting the cold floor.
"Renji, come sit down." Byakuya's voice echoed and made it sound even smoother than before. The redhead noticed the small bench positioned in one section of the shower and he happily walked over to sit; standing really wasn't feeling all that great.
He hissed as his ass was shocked by the freezing cold of the bench. He figured the warm water spraying from various shower heads around and above them would have warmed it but it hadn't been on quite long enough yet.
As he sat, he watched his captain who had stepped into the center of the shower; standing under the most powerful shower head that sent a strong stream of water cascading down his beautiful body.
Byakuya leaned his neck back to allow his hair to become slicked with water. His body was becoming hidden within the steam and sections were visible only to become hidden again as the steam swirled around inside the round shower.
He followed a stream of water down his torso with his hand; enjoying the feeling of such warmth surrounding him. He rarely used this shower because using it alone just felt lonely because of the sheer size of it.
Renji strained his eyes from his seat; wanting desperately to watch Byakuya in this situation. Where was a hairdryer or fan when you needed it!? Damn all this steam.
He placed his hands firmly on the bench and slowly but surely lifted himself onto his feet. The moisture in the air combined with that painkiller from earlier had certainly helped to ease his pain and he didn't receive a jolt up his body as he stretched his legs out.
He walked the few steps needed to take him right up behind Byakuya. The other man's head was still tipped back and water was running freely down his peaceful face. Renji slowly wrapped his hands around Byakuya who didn't even flinch at the contact. The feeling of the hot water running over him; trickling between the small space between himself and Byakuya and tickling him as it went; it sent shivers up his spine.
He was shiny, wet and naked; leaning back so his muscles rippled under the running water. How could Renji resist even if he was claiming to be faithful to Ichigo.
"Byakuya-"
The black haired man lifted his head back into a normal position. He turned in the embrace so he was facing the direction where that husky voice had just called out his name and stared into the hazy eyes of his red head.
"Are you in pain Renji?" He whispered as he leaned up to nip at Renji's earlobe. He took the soft flesh into his mouth and smoothed his tongue back and forth across it. A trickle of water made a pathway down his nose as a strand of Renji's newly wet hair decided to lie across it.
"In a way yes…" his voice was gruff and he tried not to let his body react to the gentle treatment he was receiving. He shifted and could feel his own toned body slip against the others.
'Shit' he thought as he felt himself begin to harden, if it got any worse he was sure Byakuya would be able to feel it, that was if he couldn't already.
He wasn't in much physical pain anymore so much as emotional. The warmth of the water, air and Byakuya had soothed most of his ache. It was how he was going to deal with his situation that was causing him pain. He was lost and really didn't know what to do. He couldn't even tell himself to trust his instincts because there was a lot riding on this situation and his instincts were as confused as his mind.
Byakuya was his captain and if he made him angry he could lose his vice-captain position or even be removed from his squad. On the other hand Ichigo has become an important asset to Soul Society and he was often paired with the other boy to help with important fights. If he broke it off with him he didn't know what it would do to Soul Society's relations with the ryoka group.
"Renji…" The red head tensed as he felt a wet hand trailing down his body. It was almost as if Byakuya was moving slowly as to ask permission? But really he had to be imagining things; his captain would never think he needed to ask permission to do anything.
The red head's eyes slid closed and he almost let a small sigh of defeat escape as that hand continued to travel further down and finally wrapped itself around the shaft of his now fully erect member.
"Byakuya-" His tone held a warning caution but still let it be known he was unsure of what he really wanted.
Byakuya made a soft hushing noise and tightened his grip.
"Don't think anything of it Renji-"he began in that seductive tone. "Just tilt your head back…" He reached a finger under the red head's dripping chin and lifted it backwards. "And close your eyes…" He planted a soft kiss on Renji's now exposed neck, and just as Renji was about to try and protest that sinfully skilled hand began to twist and massage his need, sending shockwaves of pleasure up his spine and making his tilted head fall limp against his shoulders.
Byakuya continued at a decent but un-rushed speed and he let a finger delicately trail over Renji's chest; occasionally flicking at the other's nipples.
Renji cursed his body for betraying him like this. He had to admit it was nice to be able to stand here and do nothing while he received all the pleasure. He wasn't selfish, not at all, but with Ichigo he seemed to always be competing to make sure he stayed on the top. Byakuya wasn't always submissive, but he knew what pleasures could come from playing either role, and he alternated quite frequently. He was also much more…skilled…than his feisty but quite inexperienced little Ichigo.
He could feel a small pit of fire churning in his stomach already and he cursed Byakuya again. Why did it seem that this man had so much power over him!? This was not helping him one bit to sort out his thoughts, it was just serving to confuse him even more. What did he want? What the fuck did he want!?
He let his eyes fall closed and his eyebrows knitted together. He had to make a decision, there was going to be no turning back here. He tried to block out everything going on around him and to him and just focused on pros and cons. Byakuya was beautiful, suave, had himself together and was very mature; someone to look up to. He decided to leave sex out of the comparison; it was only going to make the decision harder. Ichigo was brash, loud, stubborn and even a bit annoying, but he was determined and would give his life up to help his friends. When he was around Ichigo he felt equal, he didn't feel the inferiority he did when he was glared at by his captain. The thought of being with Ichigo was a warmer kind of feeling, a more normal feeling. And so, he decided.
He would go back to Ichigo, he would have a proper and functional relationship and he would like it. How could he choose otherwise? He needed proper function in his life and with Byakuya tailing him for sex at every moment there was no way he would ever get a break. However,
No one could resist Byakuya and that was a fact. So, he was going to make very good use of this current situation.
That inner turmoil that was quickly turning to anger and frustration showed itself at last as he reached a hand up to grab a harsh fistful of raven black hair. His eyes clouded over and suddenly brought a whole new meaning to the word darkness. Renji had never been one to do crazy things, had never been the one to have crazy tales to tell to his friends that were related to anything such as this but now, well that was definitely changing before his eyes since last night.
Byakuya's head jerked backwards as his hair was grasped and his confident face faltered the slightest bit. His head was forced back and before he knew it Renji's lips were on his own; demanding and dominant as the red head forced his way into Byakuya's compliant mouth. Their tongues mingled and caressed each other for a minute or so before Renji realized that Byakuya was submitting. It wasn't often that Renji had full control of a kiss and a spark of excitement ran through him.
His hand was still in his captain's hair and he broke the kiss; pulling Byakuya's head back. He tilted it so Byakuya's neck was perfectly exposed and he wasted no time attacking that soft white flesh; sucking and leaving a mark of his own in spite of all the ones he had been given. He thrust his hips forward so his length rubbed against the others and Byakuya let out a soft moan.
Renji groaned at the erotic sounds he was pulling out of the other. He hadn't felt so aroused in a very long time. There was something about being able to dominate someone who could make you feel so small and insignificant with only a look that made his body set on fire.
"Byakuya" he growled and his hand was on his shoulder, pushing him downwards. Byakuya's eyes glanced upwards sceptically as his knees bent. Renji's face looked different; powerful even. Slowly he complied and sunk down to his knees, he was interested in seeing just where Renji was going to take this. He timidly licked the tip of Renji's length before taking the head into his mouth. It was already moist and slick from the humidity in the shower and it slipped in easily until it hit the back of his throat.
"Nn- fuck" Renji's grip in his hair tightened. His head fell back as Byakuya moaned in response and without warning, swallowed; taking Renji into his throat.
The red head gasped and couldn't help but jerk into Byakuya's mouth at the sensation. He wasn't going to last long at this rate. His groans were becoming more consistent as Byakuya sucked him in and out; alternating tongue movements, suction and pressure. Renji could hear the small slurping sounds over the spray of the shower.
He began to guide Byakuya's head down; taking advantage of that hand still tangled in wet hair. Byakuya didn't protest as the red head began to fuck his mouth and he even managed to moan as Renji's pleased noises only fuelled his own arousal.
There was no warning as Renji groaned one last time and shot his seed into the back of Byakuya's throat. Byakuya suppressed the urge to gag and swallowed until the spurts of cum died and Renji's grip loosened enough for him to freely move his own head. He swallowed once more before pressing a hand to the ground and pushing himself up despite the protests of his sore knees.
He placed a hand to the back of Renji's head and tilted it forward to engage the red head into a slow kiss. Renji groaned as he tasted himself on Byakuya's lips and tongue. There were barely any words exchanged but Renji knew Byakuya was kissing him for the last time; knew that Byakuya knew this would be the last time he was able to touch or taste Renji like this.
Renji returned the gesture and gently placed his hand on the back of Byakuya's neck. He wouldn't forget the passion that they had for each other when moments like this happened. Renji's lips moved slowly against Byakuya's as they shared that silent bond between them in the most intimate of ways.
The black haired man broke the kiss- pulling away so slowly that their lips refused to separate for a second- and stared into Renji's dark eyes. Renji's hand moved upwards into the back of Byakuya's hair and his thumb stroked over the top of his neck slowly.
"Byakuya I-" He felt nervous and his eyes broke the contact; shifting down to look at the clouds of steam.
Byakuya's finger came up to silence his lips.
"Let's just finish up in here before we drain an ocean" There was an almost forced smile on his face.
"Well uh…What about-" Renji couldn't not notice that Byakuya hadn't been taken care of yet and he was still very hard.
Byakuya just silenced the other with one last chaste kiss and he walked over to a shelf that was full of all sorts of bath gels, shampoos and other beauty products. Renji turned his eyes back to his feet, he felt slightly awkward after everything that had just gone on and he really didn't know what to say.
Before he realized, Byakuya was standing behind him with a few things in his hand and some fluffy sponge.
"Here, wash yourself." He was handed the bottles. Vanilla body wash and a regular bar of vanilla soap…and the sponge, he thought he recalled something like this being called a Lufa but he couldn't quite remember. Did that body wash have sparkles in it…
"Bya-" he was going to complain about the sparkles but Byakuya was already on the other side of the shower, next to the shelf, soaping up his hair and body with probably something just as fruity smelling and sparkly as what he'd been given. He just sucked it up and squeezed some of the gel onto the sponge before attempting to create suds on his skin while he was still under the spray of 3 shower heads.
He was rinsing off as he felt a hand on his shoulder. He looked to his side and locked eyes with Byakuya's stern gaze. Where did the gentle and even disappointed look from only a few minutes ago disappear to?
"Are you finished here? We should leave as soon as possible to free up the rest of the day for more important business." His tone was cold as he turned and left the shower.
Renji rinsed the last bit of suds off of his chest before switching off the taps and followed Byakuya quickly out of the shower. A towel was tossed at his head and when he pulled it away from his eyes he noticed Byakuya wasn't even in the room anymore. He quickly moved the soft fabric across his body; collecting up tiny drops of water and then wrapped it around his waist.
As soon as he walked back into the bedroom a pair of clothes was thrown at his face in the same manner as the towel was. He lifted them off and looked at them; of course they weren't his. His had been ripped to shreds. Great.
"Oh hey Ichigo, yeah I'm wearing Byakuya's clothes because him and Kenpachi ripped mine when they fucked me senseless last night!" He rolled his eyes. Guess he had no choice though and so without complaining he put on the clothes which surprisingly fit him quite nicely; a fitting white dress shirt and normal jeans. His hair was now a giant red contrast to the cool and calming colours of these clothes; he actually quite liked it.
He glanced over at Byakuya who had just finished blow drying his hair.
"Shall we go?" the captain questioned as he approached the red head.
"Can I uh…use that blow dryer first?" Byakuya rolled his eyes.
"If you must." He nudged his head towards the table he had left it on and moved towards the bed to sit until Renji was ready to leave.
His hair would have to hang down today, who knows what had become of his hair elastic. He glanced over once to notice the very bored expression showing itself on Byakuya's face. He figured making him wait any longer would just make the raven haired man even more annoyed and so he set the dryer down; hair still damp. He fluffed it out with his fingers and then let it fall limply against his shoulders.
"Let's go then." Renji turned towards the door, knowing Byakuya would follow.
"Renji…"
…or not. He turned to look at the other, his gaze was faltering as he struggled to keep a calm composure.
"Are you sure about this?"
A yes or no question deserved a yes or no for an answer.
"Yeah, I'm sure….Let's go." A hint of regret shone through his words but he was sure. Byakuya reluctantly got off the bed and composed himself once again; he locked the door behind them and called forth a senkai gate.
They stepped through and took a moment to adjust to the changes in their powers before starting their way towards Ichigo's house. That brat better be home.
Hesitantly, he walked up to Ichigo's front door. He hit the hard wood with 3 hard taps and if Ichigo wasn't the one to answer the door he would have a whole lot of convincing to do to get Ichigo out of the house and talking with him.
"Please let ichigo answer the door ,please let it be him" he thought as he stared down the door. Byakuya was lingering near the sidewalk somewhere but right now Renji had even forgotten he was there.
The door opened a crack and as soon as Renji saw orange tips of hair he grabbed the other boy from his doorstep, pulled him outside and closed the door behind him.
"Renji! What the fuck man, what are you even doing here!?" Why had he just been pulled from his house; in his pyjama pants at that, early in the morning, to stand on his lawn and talk to the jerk who'd been such a dick to him just yesterday.
Renji quickly gathered his thoughts and placed a hand on a very confused Ichigo's shoulder.
"I…know you probably don't want to see me right now, and I just want to say I'm sorry about yesterday…"
Ichigo's eyes softened at what seemed to be a sincere apology.
"You came all the way to my house to tell me you were sorry?" he was suspicious, there was no way Renji had dragged his ass all the way to Kurakura town just to say sorry to something that would have blown over on its own in due time.
"Well…"
Ichigo tapped his foot, his sisters would be suspicious if they came out to get him for breakfast and saw him pinned against the front of the house by another man.
"B-Byakuya…"
"What about Byakuya…" he raised an eyebrow.
"Byakuya…he…" Ichigo was getting worried. Had he gotten kicked out of his squad? Out of the divisions all together!?
"Fuck Renji, spit it out!"
"I fucked him" Byakuya decided to finish Renji's sentence. He walked around from behind the bushes he was hiding behind; stoic look on his face, hands firmly by his sides and voice as flat as always.
"What…?" Well that just put a whole new spin on things.
"I said I fucked him. Last night, I took Renji to my place just after you'd left and we had sex."
"The fuck…what are you…Renji…" He couldn't help but believe part of what Byakuya was saying and there was anger rising in his eyes.
Renji just looked at him, that was all he'd needed to do really to confirm it as the truth.
"You- why the fuck would you come here then!"
"He came to explain to you."
"That's enough Byakuya, thanks, I got it from here" Renji was clearly annoyed with the way things were going. Byakuya saying all that shit just like that wasn't really what he expected. But really, the other man wanted him, why shouldn't he try and sabotage things even if it was in a semi-tasteful way.
"Ichigo listen-"
"I think I've heard enough Renji!"
Great, now Ichigo was pissed off at him and this situation just got a hell of a lot more difficult.
"No Ichigo listen!" His hand came up to hold Ichigo's shoulder.
"Fuck off Renji!" He shoved the other red head backwards; breaking the body contact and shoving him further away. He stood where he was for a moment; debating whether he should open the door and go back inside or actually hear Renji out. Because something was definitely up.
They all stood in silence for a few minutes; each set of eyes shifting to meet with ones just as uneasy as their own.
"Ichigo I-"
"I don't really want to hear it, seriously." Still, he made no move to go back inside.
"Ichigo, listen to what I have to say." Byakuya felt it was his turn to step up again and ignored Renji who was glaring daggers towards him.
The red head remained quiet and just stared at Byakuya. This whole thing was just fucked up.
"Last night, it is true that I had sex with Renji, it is even true that Kenpachi joined us. I believe you are familiar with Zaraki Taichou." Ichigo's mouth hung open. Renji didn't just cheat on him with one man, but two in the same night; and Kenpachi!? That's just wrong in so many ways.
"However the encounter was not Renji's idea nor did he consent to anything. I believe you shouldn't fault him for this because the whole situation is my fault. Renji even refused most things- saying he couldn't betray you and needed to be with you."
Ichigo's eyes brightened just the slightest bit. He turned towards Renji who still stood near him; his eyes downcast and…was he blushing? Guess this was awkward for more than one of them.
Byakuya didn't continue speaking and instead turned to leave. It seemed he was no longer needed here. He didn't feel the need to explain anything else to Ichigo; his reasons for doing what he did or details of what went on. This, as far as he was concerned, had been resolved the moment Renji decided he needed to come back here to Ichigo and he had already accepted within his heart and his mind that he would let go.
He opened a senkai gate and stepped through it as the others watched his retreating back; too many thoughts clogging both of their minds to attempt to stop him.
"So uh…" Ichigo's hand came up to rest on the back of his neck; rubbing it to try and ease some of the tense atmosphere.
"Before you ask, it's all true. I have bruises and cuts to prove it" he never met eyes with Ichigo as he said this; he even had to hold back a wince from the thought of how long he would be sore for.
"Ah…"
"Can you uh…forgive me…you know, for practically cheating and all."
"Well…if Byakuya was telling the truth…which he usually seems to do, guess it wasn't really your idea right?"
"Definitely not. And Kenpachi joining in was completely unwanted as well." Well, he may have enjoyed most of it, but it wasn't wanted. And he would never fess up to that.
"Well…I think I can, I don't actually know what to say to all this. You come to my house, drag me out of it in my pyjamas and have your captain tell me he and another captain who's practically out to get me decided to fuck you. That's a little…overwhelming."
"Yeah I uhh…sorry about that. He said he'd come along to confirm what I was saying wasn't complete random bullshit, because I know it sounds that way, but I didn't expect him to just go and…say it, you know.
"Yeah I…I know what you mean. But just…"
"Ichigo don't worry! And listen, I'll tell everyone about us if that's what you want. I'm not ashamed of you, I don't know what got into my yesterday and just-" he smashed Ichigo up against the wall and kissed him with as much passion as he could muster.
The other was a bit stunned and at first didn't respond but he melted in Renji's hands and within a few seconds he was kissing back with just as much need.
Soon tongues were tangled within each other, Renji's hand was wandering to the hem of his shirt, reaching up and massaging at his soft skin. Their cheeks were flushed, small moans escaping from both until they finally broke away.
Renji set his hands on Ichigo's shoulders. God his lips…
"Ichigo, I only want you."
"Renji…" Ichigo pushed himself forward into the other's arms, wrapping him in a tight hug which Renji quickly reciprocated. He inhaled; enjoying the smell of Ichigo that he'd missed more than he thought.
Ichigo raised his head; locking his big eyes with Renji's.
"Is…why is your face sparkiling…" He raised an eyebrow, there were indeed sparkles all over the other man's face as well as in his hair.
"I uhh…well after everything you know…I showered and…well all of Byakuya's shit has glitter and smells like fruits!" Ichigo just laughed and reached up to touch Renji's hair. It was nice down, he wished the other would wear it down more often but…he got to see it down during their alone time together, and that was good enough.
"Come in and have breakfast, I'll tell them I haven't seen you in awhile and you just dropped by." He smiled and broke free from the embrace to push Renji towards the door.
Breakfast… yeah breakfast sounded amazing.
