10th ACT:Haru- chan's club
__________________________________________________________
"Matsumoto- fukutaichou, I guess?" the 9th division captain said while looking above her carrot shake.
A straw colored blonde girl smiled and stood straight "Hai, Jubantai fukutaichou, Matsumoto Rangiku"
"Nice to meet you" Harusame then gestured for her to sit on the couch, she stood up joining the vice captain. This is where informal conversations are held, and she can tell that her visit is work unrelated.
"What can I do for you?"
"Well, here in Soul Society all shinigami women are members of a certain club" she began
"Okay…" Harusame can sense a plot.
"It is called Shinigami Women's Association!!" the booby lieutenant declared.
Harusame looked at the girl with a blank expression,
"All right… so what will be your point?"
"Kuchiki- taichou---"
Harusame cut her, "I'am not a Kuchiki…yet" she said stressing on the last word.
"Oh, Shihouin- taichou, I want you to join our club to fortify our power and domination over the male species in Seiretei!!" Rangiku said her eyes gleaming.
Harusame eye twitched, this could be interesting after all "Did you say over the male species?"
"Yes maa'm" Rangiku smiled like a cat with cream, she had been successful in recruiting the beautiful captain.
"Tell me more about this domination club" Harusame said with an evil grin.
Outside, Hisagi- fukutaichou shivered, as if he felt the woman population increased their power.
"Wifey-chan!!!" a pink ball screamed while bouncing towards Harusame.
"Wi—wifey??" she replied with confusion to the newfound nickname.
"Aren't you Byakushi's wife?" Yachiru asked
"Byakushi?" Harusame said, then it hit her, oh, Byakuya "Uh...no, we are not yet married"
"Oh, so when you marry, will you have kids?" The little girl asked with an interested look.
"---Excuse me?" she choked
"Well, doesn't married people make babies?" Said Yachiru in genuine confusion.
"Well, uhmm, that's" all Harusame could mutter.
The vice-captain of the 5th suddenly whipped something out of her robes and threw it outside the window,
"Yachiru- chan here are some MnM's!!"
"CHOCOLATE~!!!!!!!!!" then the pink one, disappeared.
"Gomen nasai taichou, that girl is really, annoying sometimes…"
"It's alright," said Harusame
The bespectacled 8th division vice captain cleared her throat,
"We will now start our meeting" the women took seats in front of the blackboard, giving the impression of Nanao being the teacher
"1st agenda, Hinamori- fukutaichou"
The girl stood up and held a chart in her hand,
"We had made the survey last week for the photo book release, and as usual the result is the same"
"Not again!! He had been the winner since this club is established!!" complained Rangiku
"Oh boy, and we only had been releasing mediocre photo's of him!!" Isane- fukutaichou agreed.
"Uhh, excuse me?" Harusame said, confused to the unfolding events.
"That's it!!" Nanao said while looking at Harusame.
"Huh?"
"Ladies this might be the year of our success!!" Nanao stated with triumph.
"Shihouin- taichou might be the answer, no she is the answer!!" Rangiku blurted out, getting what Nanao had meant.
"Can someone tell me, what the hell is going on?" Harusame said with a raised eyebrow.
"Well, for the past 50 years since this club was established we had been conducting a poll, for a certain photo book called…" Nanao trailed off…
"THE MOST HOTTEST SHINIGAMI IN SEIRETEI!!!" the pink vice captain of the 11th screamed,
"But when I touched Byakushi, he isn't hot at all, I've been doing it for the past 50 years, I wonder why the girls think he is hot" she added.
Harusame blushed a little, so she isn't the only one who thinks he is hot, well it seems that the whole female population find her fiancée a hottie.
Yachiru still confused about the word 'hot' decided to ask the 9th division captain.
"Haru-chan, is Byakushi- hot? Have you touched him?"
Harusame was taken aback, "Uh, that is…I--"
Rangiku acted fast and threw something in the window, "Yachiru here are some Cadbury"
"CHOCOLATE~!!!!!!!!" then she dashed off.
"You need to have chocolates, they are quite useful, even Kuchiki- taichou use them" Rangiku said in a wink.
"I'll remember that" Harusame said considering shopping for chocolates
"So Shihouin- taichou, since you are the closest to him, can you get him to pose for the magazine?" Nanao pleaded.
"HUH???" She replied with obvious surprise. Well hell would freeze over before Byakuya posed for a photo shoot.
"Onegaishimasu!!!" the whole hall bowed before her and showed her puppy dog eyes. She can't refuse to such poor things.
"Okay, I'll try…" she sighed giving in.
"We are counting on you!! Future mother of Byakushi's children!!" Yachiru erupted.
Harusame played with her silver crucifix; she chose to walk than shunpoing to the 6th division, this way she can think more.
Reaching the 6th's barracks, she walked straight away to Byakuya's office.
"Shihouin- taichou" Renji said in greeting
Harusame just nodded "Bya—I mean Kuchiki- taichou, is he there?"
"Hai"
"I'll go then"
"Of course"
Harusame knocked once.
"Enter" a deep voice said.
She closed the door behind her, Byakuya looked at her, eyes narrowing.
"Uh…hi Kuchiki- taichou…" she began
Byakuya raised one eyebrow,
'Well this is unnatural, she needs something', he thought
"What do you need Harusame?"
She just chuckled and walked towards his desk "Okay, you got me" she then sat on the edge of his table, "Actually, I--"
"Just say it," said Byakuya
"Fine" she said crossing her arms, "Will you pose--"
"No," his quick reply.
"Huh?"
"It is for the photo book right?" he asked
"Yes that---" she answered
"No, I refuse"
Harusame stood up and faced him, "Why?"
"It is absurd," he said leaning on the chair's backrest.
Harusame resorted to flattery maybe he might reconsider, "Well you should be proud, every girl in Seiretei thinks you are hot" but regretted what she had done.
Byakuya's stoic face become amused,
"Do you think I'm hot?"
Harusame took one step back," That—s…" she closed her mouth and composed herself,
"My opinion doesn't matter"
"Sure it does," said Byakuya while looking at her.
"Okay, a little bit" she admitted while pouting.
'She is cute' he thought,
"How come I'm not convinced?" he asked
Harusame's cheek burned,
"Geez, Byakuya, just pose for the book!!" she lashed out.
"I don't want to go to a studio and be pictured," he said
Harusame looked at him for a second and got an idea, "What if I take it instead?"
"I'll see you try," he said in a mock tone
"What is that supposed to mean!!" she said hitting the table with her palms.
"You can't take a single decent picture of me," said Byakuya with a hint of smile in his handsome face.
Harusame felt challenged "Oh yeah? Tell you what!" she said then leaned closer,
"I'll get it, and not just one! I'll get a dozen or even more!!"
"Oh?" he said in disbelieving tone
"Yes, different angle different poses, different places!! And you wouldn't even feel it"
"It is a game then, but to be fair, you need to take only 5 pictures of me"
"You are on" she snapped.
"But if I caught you taking a picture of me, I'll punish you little girl, for doing stuffs without my permission" he said reaching for Harusame's flushed cheeks.
Harusame pulled away, "Pu—nish me?" she stuttered blood rushing in her veins. 'What punishment?' she thought.
"Yes, what scared?" he teased a smile creeping in his face.
Harusame stood in full height, "Of course not" she exclaimed, "Tomorrow morning, the game shall start, and it will end at the end of the day. Deal?"
"Deal" he said extending his hands
"You are going down," she said shaking Byakuya's hand.
"No Harusame, you are going down, as in down…" he said with confidence."the lokcation of your fall...I shall leave to your imagination.."
Shihouin Harusame gulped.
(A/N: Uhh…Bya-kun can you punish me instead? (LOL)…- ellithea)
