"Hi _-chan! How are you?" Kisuke said cheerfully hugging you when you entered the room.
"I'd be better if you'd let go of me." You tell him with a blank face.
"Aww but that's not fun… you're so mean to me." He said with a fake pouty face.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah Urahara, someone has to keep you in line." You say smacking his arm before going to sit down on the couch, sighing when Urahara sat down next to you and wrapped his arm around your shoulder. "Get off Kisuke." You say picking his arm up off of your shoulder and let it drop on the couch in between them.
"Are you in a bad mood Mr. Grumpy Gills?" he said poking your face.
"Kisuke if you want to keep your finger get it out of my face NOW!" you shout at him
"Come on now you two stop fighting and pick a sword _" Rangiku said holding out a black hat to you.
Reaching into the hat you pull out a sword and read the number on it, "Number one." You say standing up.
"Yay! I get to be with _-chan" Kisuke said happily grabbing your hand and dragging you off to Orihime's room, Rangiku following so she could lock the door. Once the door was locked Kisuke's goofy act evaporated and he became serious. "Why? Why don't you like me? Why don't you even want to try and like me _?"
You sigh audibly, "It's… well… I don't know it's hard to explain." You say walking away from him.
"Tell me. Am I too goofy? Is it my profession, my ex-profession? The way I act? The fact that I have two adopted kids? What?" he started going off.
"It's not that…"
"Well then what?"
"… It's just that you… well… you're a bit of a perv and lecher okay! I don't want to end up as a ghost of me if something goes wrong. I just don't want to get hurt." you say putting your back against the wall and sliding down it, looking up at him with tears in your eyes. "You know what, never mind. Just stay over there I'll be fine." You say dropping your head to your knees and wrapping your arms around them.
"But…" he said taking a step closer to you.
"Don't, just stay there. I'll break if you get any closer." You say, the need to cry thick in your voice.
For once Kisuke didn't listen to you. He walked over to your position on the wall and sat down in front of you, pulling you on to his lap and in to a hug. "You can break just as many times as you want just as long as you let me put you back together every single time." He said kissing your head and sending you over the edge.
You clutch at his shirt as you cry into his shoulder, "I want' to try… I… I really do… I'm just… scared.
"I know, I know. It's okay." He said rubbing your back and rocking you back and forth until you calmed down. "Now how's about we just try, okay?"
"Okay." You say smiling at him.
"Now that's better." He says whipping away your tears, "You look so much prettier when you're smiling." He said right before he kissed you.
"Time's up!" Rukia said opening the door and found both of you on the floor, "Aww, that looks so cute." She said seeing both of you looking at her with confused expressions on your faces.
"Come on." Kisuke said taking your hand as he led you outside to the other room where you spent the rest of the night holding his hand and resting your head on his shoulder.
