"Grimm?" The said blunet froze, a cup of coffee (cream with two sugars) half way towards his mouth before he twisted his upper body around and quirked a sky blue eyebrow at his lover. He knew that voice. It was the voice Ichi used when he wanted something (and usually got because Grimm was a sucker for his unintentional pouty lips and big brown puppy eyes).
Just as he suspected, his Berry-tan was hovering by the door, his eyes downcast as he fiddled with the hem of his t-shirt. "…Yesss?" Grimmjow drawled as he turned his body around fully to lean against the kitchen counter, smirking before taking a sip when Ichigo blushed as he slowly meandered his way over, biting his lip when he reached the older man, and looked up with those eyes of his Grimmjow knew he'd use.
"Do you remember that talk we had about having kids?" the orange haired man asked, his fingers coming up to fiddle with Grimmjow's button up now.
Oh. So that's what Berry-tan wanted. "What about it?" the blunet rumbled, putting his coffee down before nosing his Ichi's temple as he slung his arms around the younger man's hips.
"Uh. Well, I-uh, I found a way…how that could possibly happen," Ichigo mumbled into his chest, cuddling closer when the arms tightened around him.
The former Sexta was curious, as was his nature. "Yeah? How? …Wait. Yer not gonna suddenly turn into a woman and grow boobs and a vagina, are ya?" He frowned, though the thought wasn't entirely unappealing…His Berry-tan would be just as sexy in any form, really.
But before his mind could further burrow itself into the gutter, Ichigo looked up at him with an affronted scowl, swatting his chest half-heartedly. "No, baka. That's not even physically possible! Urahara invented this machine that could give us children. All we need to do is…er…'provide a sample'."
Grimmjow cocked another eyebrow at that, "Well, it could happen, knowing that crazy bastard…and just how do you plan on accomplishing that task anyway?" Azure eyes took on a lewd glint to which his mate answered with a slow, sensual smirk of his own.
"Oh, I think I can come up with a few things…" the orange haired man chuckled, sliding his hands up slowly to cradle his lover's face in his hands before bringing him down for a hot, steamy kiss.
...
Approximately nine months later, the couple was sitting within Urahara's shop in front of the strange machine that eerily resembled a large, white, egg-shaped, futuristic oven. After waiting impatiently for the last hour, Grimmjow stopped tapping his foot and uncrossed his arms as the two jumped to their feet when the timer finally went off, holding each other's hand tightly while Urahara gliding in to pop the door open. "Ah, though a bit delayed, your bun in the oven is done!" the quirky blond man sing-songed as he gently swathed up a small someone in the soft pastel yellow baby blanket with blueberries and strawberries all over it Yuzu had made as a baby shower present. He lifted the bundle out of the machine carefully and handed it off to a bewildered Grimmjow, who didn't really know what to do with himself. "Congratulations! It's a boy!" he chirped, then flounced out of the room before they could even say anything. Strange man, that one was indeed, but the pair didn't spar it another thought, not with a little someone they needed to introduce themselves to. They could always thank the shopkeeper later.
With baited breath, Ichigo drew nearer as the former Sexta gently, warily lifted away a bit of blanket to reveal a head of rich teal colored hair and a pair of wide amber eyes, surprisingly already open and alert, that was set in a little cherubic face and staring back at them.
"Heya, brat," the blunet muttered a moment after their little staring contest, but quickly relaxed and grinned when his mini-me gurgled up at them happily. "'M yer Papa." He wiggled a finger in front of the baby's face and his grin morphed into a smirk when his brat made a grab for it with his little paw. "Heh, quite the grip ya got already! That's my boy. Hey look, ya see this gorgeous man here? This is yer Daddy."
"Hello, little one," Ichigo breathed, a little blush heating up his face when he met smirking cyan eyes at the compliment before he eagerly huddled against them, Grimmjow wrapping his other arm around his waist in encouragement and pulled him even closer – so that they were essentially cradling their new addition in between their bodies protectively – the younger man's own arms hooked around his lover's waist as well, "Welcome."
Carefully, Grimmjow transferred their new cub to his mate, who obviously wanted to hold the tiny being and never let go, his lips tugging into a soft smile as he watched Ichi coo and gently rub his nose against the babe's, making the little one hiccup a squeaky laugh. They let out a low amused chuckle at the adorable sound. "Didja think of any names yet, Ichi?" he asked, touching their foreheads together in a sweet, familiar gesture while his big hands ran up and down his younger mate's strong back absently.
"How about Kureno?" the orange haired man murmured, humming a low pleasant lullaby and rocking their newborn son in his arms when they noticed the little blunet give a big yawn, copper penny eyes drooping before finally closing.
"Like in 'late spring'? Eh, well it is March, almost April…All right. Kureno it is then," Grimmjow confirmed before gathering his little family into his arms again, "Time to go home then, yeah? The twins will want to see their nephew before going to bed," he said before he sonidoed them all to the Kurosaki residence where the rest of the relatives were eagerly awaiting the new arrival.
Back at the shop in the dark shadowed doorway, Urahara lowered his fan from where he'd been eavesdropping nearby and revealed a warm smile for the couple, "You're welcome, you two."
...
A year later…
"Grimm?" The said blunet froze. He knew that voice…Warm, tanned arms suddenly snaked around his torso so slim yet masculine hands could caress his abs, "I want another one..." his mate purred into his ear.
He hadn't stood a chance.
So, in the end, the two had four more children: fraternal though nearly identical triplets that consisted of Shiro (who Ichigo knew his inner hollow had something to with; the spitting image was hard to overlook), his own mini-me, Jakeru, and their little Masaki-chan; and then there was their newest and littlest blunette, Umi. Grimmjow hadn't been ready for those big honey eyes that were so much like her Daddy's and had instantly fallen head over heels in love for his precious 'baby doll', just like he had for his strawberry blonde 'sweetheart' when her and her older brothers were born.
Both had had their hands quite full for a bit, but with a house full of laughing grandkids to chase around, Isshin had been all too ecstatic to babysit when the couple wanted some 'alone time'.
They took advantage of it as often as they could get away with. Even now, a decade later, you never know when someone would come running to them in need of a hanky or a snack while they were in the middle of doing the nasty.
Talk about awkward parent-child conversations.
Owari.

A/N: According to my research, 'Kureno' is derived from 'kurenoharu, 'the third month on the traditional Japanese calendar which means 'late spring', so therefore it would only make sense that the baby would be born in the latter half of March, and since the Spring equinox is March 20th, I've decided that would be perfect for the baby's birthday, even though some would say that the equinox is the first day of spring while others argue that it's really mid-spring instead. …:D Tank yu, Wikipedia! XDDD Haha, anywayz. I had no idea where I was going with this, but I still like it (even though there's no smut like I had originally thought it would. Ziel had had other plans and withheld all my usual smutty ideas from me o_o*), so I hope yu all do too, especially yu, Qualyn! 1,252 words. Tanks fer the prompt! Please R&R! :3
