The senkaimon opened in the rukongai, just as planned.

"you are going to have to hide here for a while. Make sure you are always wearing he consealment necklace. I'm also taking a little bit of your reiatsu with me to mislead them into thinking you came with me." Urahara said as he opened his own senkaimon. He put Ichigo's necklace around his neck.

"there's a cave about 5 km south from here. Hide there and put this at the entrance. It will conceal it, making it look like a solid rock and it will work as an extra barrier to conceal your reiatsu even more. Now go."

He quickly dropped a small bag containing stones into Grimmjow's hand before they starting running into different directions; Urahara into the Senkaimon and Grimmjow south, still carrying Ichigo bridal style in his arms.

"Did you find them?"

"No…. They are not in Karakura town and we cannot find them anywhere in Soul Society and Hueco Mundo."

Soi fong-Taichou groaned in frustration. It had been over 2 weeks since the arrancar had escaped with Ichigo, and it looked like they just stopped existing. There reiatsu couldn't be detected anywhere.

Ichigo smiled as Grimmjow laid his hands on his stomach and started transferring his reiatsu into the chamber.

"ah….. that feels so good…." He moaned softly. "I still cannot believe that you're not mad at me."

"I could never be mad at you my love…" The arrancar kissed him softly, whispering 'I love you too much' in the substitute shinigami's ear.

"hmmm… Grimm… there was something I've wanted to ask for a while now…."

"sure?"

"I want you to permanently mark me…. But only if you really want to… I just think it would definitely be better….. and well.." he blushed as he noticed the shocked expression the bluehaired man was giving him. "Of course I want to. But I need YOU to be absolutely sure. Okay? We'll wait a few more days and if you're still sure by then I'll mark you permanentely."

Ichigo nodded and smiled. "thank you…. I think I would also feel a lot safer. It would mean that when we get discovered and they separate us that me and the cub are not in so much danger of dying anymore…. I cannot only think of myself here. Sure…. I really REALLY want to because I really love you, but I also have to look out for our little bundle of trouble. Make sure he or she survives. So…..I would actually hope to do this as fast as possible. Normally I'd want to wait a bit…. But I feel that it would definitely be a lot safer."

Grimmjow stared at him before kissing him softly. There was definitely a lot of logic in what he was saying. Seeing as how they were already in hiding for about two weeks the chance of being discovered was getting bigger and bigger. And with the permament mark the transfer would partly happen automatic, even when being apart.

"Okay…. You know what… I'll mark you first thing tomorrow… Alright? Get some rest now… I love you…"

The orangehead smiled and snuggled close to his love. "Love you too… And I'm definitely looking forward to having hot steamy sex with you tomorrow.. It has been too damn long." He said teasingly, nuzzling Grimmjow's neck.

The alpha snickered. "I turned you into a horny monster.. I'm so sorry…. Now… go to sleep. I'll stay awake for when Yoruichi arrives with our food. I'll wake you then."

When Ichigo awoke a few hours later he noticed how Yoruichi was already there.

"Well look who finally woke up." The black cat said smiling. "We've tried waking you up a few times, but nothing seemed to work… come here… I brought sandwiches with tuna for you."

The teen smiled and walked to where they were sitting, noticing the small hollow bird in Grimmjow's hands.

The bluehead looked down guiltily. "I've been out of my gigai for too long, and now It's kind of like chocolate cravings.. It's bad for you and you don't really need it…. But somehow you really want it, even when you don't…"

Ichigo nodded and kissed him softly on the cheek. "It's fine… I understand. Talking about bodies btw….. what happened to mine?"

"It's at urahara's. First your dad put your body in one of the hospital rooms with Kon in it. Then he made it look like you were transferred to go to another hospital that knows more about your condition." Once again the teen nodded and took a bite when Yoruichi stood up and told them she was going to patrol the area and maybe catch some hollow mice for Grimmjow.

"Hey… Babe? How are you feeling?" Ichigo smiled and laid his hand on his stomach. "Much better. Thank you… Without you I wouldn't even be alive anymore…"

"But I'm the one who got your life in danger in the first place by impregnating you. I gave you the amulet without even noticing that its effects had worn off."

The teen crawled closer to his lover. "Without you I'd already have died before even getting to know the feeling of love. I'd have been raped and left for dead in the first week of heat, not knowing what the fuck was going on with me…" he hugged his alpha tightly. "I love you."

"I love you too."

When Ichigo awoke the next morning he immediately smiled and crawled closer into his lover's embrace.

"morning babe."

"morning grimm…" He grinned. "now… Didn't you promise me some mindblowing morning-sex?"

At this yoruichi, who was sitting in the corner looked up and rolled her eyes, quietly and quickly disappearing. That was something she would rather NOT see.

Grimmjow grinned and nodded, leaning over Ichigo and softly kissing him, licking his bottom lop and thrusting his tongue deep inside Ichigo's mouth before suddenly leaving his mouth and heading for the teen's neck.

He nibbled the soft flesh, licking and kissing it softly until Ichigo was already a panting mess under him, making him smile. He lowered his head even more, opening the white Yukata Ichigo was wearing and kissing him all over his chest, softly teasing a nipple before doing the same to the other.

"hmmm… Grimm… You teaser."

The alpha smiled and lowered himself even more until he reached Ichigo's member. He looked up to the teen and smirked as he saw the hungry look in the beta's eyes. "please… Grimm…."

At this he gave the member a tentative lick over the pulsing vain before taking the head in his mouth and bringing his fingers towards Ichigo's mouth, wordlessly asking him to take them in and make them wet so he could prepare the teen.

Ichigo did as he was told and started making the fingers as wet as possible before Grimmjow pulled them back, placing one of them at his entrance and softly pushing in while giving the head a hard suck.

"hnnngg… Grimmm….more.."

The arrancar smiled and pushed in the second finger, scissoring them softly, every time a little more until once again Ichigo begged him for more and he thrust in the third finger, immediately searching for Ichigo's prostate when the teen let out a soft hiss of pain.

"Ahhh! Grimm… oh god… again…please.."

The alpha smirked and pulled his fingers back, making the teen under him whine at the loss. "relax babe… I'm coming in."

Ichigo nodded and relaxed as much as possible, waiting until Grimmjow's tip was inside him before grabbing the man by his hips and making him thrust in completely, straight into his prostate.

"Ah! Grimm! Move!"

Grimmjow did as he was asked and started his slow pace, gradually going faster and harder, nailing Ichigo's prostate every single time. He let his hand travel towards Ichigo's member, giving it a soft squeeze.

"Ichi…. When you're about to come… Bite me in my neck. Really bite me until your teeth pierce the skin.. okay?"

The teen nodded, panting harshly before pulling Grimmjow close, face near his neck, ordering him to go harder. Grimmjow obliged, thrusting in as hard as he could, suddenly feeling Ichigo contract around him and the teen's teeth pierce his skin.

"hnnngg. Oh Ichi… Now send your reiatsu in the bitewound." He said panting, keeping his own orgasm at bay until Ichigo was done and laid back, panting.

"Now It's my turn." He said softly, and Ichigo bared his neck, smiling when Grimmjow came as hard as never before in his life, biting in the teens neck and sending his own reiatsu in the wound before collapsing on top of Ichigo; exhausted.

He waited a few minutes before he pulled out and laid himself next to the teen.

"that... wow… that was just… wow…. I thing I would definitely like to have more sex with you like that.." Ichigo said smiling, still calming his heart and touching the already disappearing bite mark in Grimmjow's neck making the ex-arrancar smile. "Me too… And don't worry… The scars won't be too visible… You'll only see a slight discoloration, barely noticeable to humans and shinigami."

Ichigo nodded and now touched his own mark. "I thought you only had to mark me?"

"yeah… lot's of alpha's don't let their beta's mark them…. Y'know… compare them to what humans call players. I'm actually not like that and also; It's better for our little miracle in there." He said stroking Ichigo's abdomen.

"Uhm… babe.. You're about a month far right now.. .righ?"

The strawberry nodded.

"when are you supposed to start showing?"

"Unohana told me somewhere around the second month…." He looked at his lover questionately. "why?"

"I think you're already starting to show. Just a little thought. You're stomach is sticking out for a bit… But I'm not really surprised. I guess that with our enormous amount of reiatsu the child just grows faster.

The teen smiled. "well… Then we'll get to hold him or her even sooner."

The grinned at each other and snuggled close to one another, saying 'I love you' before dozing off again.

Another 2 weeks passed and Ichigo was actually pretty happy like this. Sure, they had to stay in hiding because they could easily be discovered and the second division was still looking for them. But in some kind of weird way this was their happy little home and they were together.

He leaned back against Grimmjow whose hand was on his slightly bulging tummy.

"Our little one sure is growing fast." He stated smiling as he felt the bluehaired man send some more reiatsu into his stomach.

"I don't care… I almost can't wait to hold our little one." Came the reply. "I wonder what he or she will look like." He smiled, but looked up when Yoruichi suddenly appeared at the front of the cave, looking like she was in panic.
