Gin accidently lets his hand flit over Toshiro's bruised wrist. Toshiro hisses in pain and Gin glances at his face as he bends over his wrist while bandaging it. He returns to wrapping the fragile hand. It feels so nice and soft in his. He just wishes he can caress it forever with the boy tightly enclosed in his arms…

He shakes the thought from his head and pulls a little too tightly on the cloth as he winds it round. Toshiro cries out in pain again. He glares at Gin's head form above.

'Can you at least be a little gentle?' he hisses angrily and tries to pull his hand away but Gin applies a gentle pressure to prevent him from withdrawing. The sick ward is tiny, with just a single desk and chair against one wall and a gurney against an adjacent wall with a curtain to give a sick person some privacy while sleeping. Gin has locked the door to stop anyone from finding out they are using the room without any permission. The room is painted an unusually bright white which is heightened due to the sunlight streaming out of the window behind the chair. It's midday and yet the sun is as sunny and cheerful as ever unlike the two people sitting sullenly in the compact room. Right now, Toshiro is perched on the gurney with Gin bending down on his knees as he winds a cloth bandage around Toshiro's wrist. Even though he's trying to help ease the pain, he isn't exactly doing such a good job of it.

He doesn't answer Toshiro's question but silently continues with his work. Toshiro sighs as he looks at his teachers head which bobs as he concentrates on not causing him any pain. He can understand why Gin is being so quiet and distant from Toshiro right now. After all, he had just bared his soul in declaring that he loves him back but can't because of the consequences. But doesn't he understand? The consequences shouldn't matter so much when you're in love! It's love that conquers it and makes it a petty con against the overwhelmingly powerful pro. Can't Gin see that? Can't he look into Toshiro's eyes and understand that? It's like he doesn't care about Toshiro at all. He's just so scared…

Toshiro hangs his head and can't help letting a sob escape his lips. That gets Gin's attention and he looks up in surprise to see Toshiro turning his head away quickly but not quick enough for Gin to catch a glimpse of his face. It's streaked with fresh tears. Gin's eyebrows come down to meet his eyes in a frown.

'Why do you cry, Toshiro-kun?' he asks and immediately regrets it as Toshiro lets out a choked sob. He's finished bandaging the wrist but hasn't let go and Toshiro hasn't pulled it away either. Gin tugs on Toshiro's other hand and Toshiro can't help but to force himself to look at him. Gin seems to be pleading him to be alright, to forget everything that has happened and to go back to the way things were before. It almost made Toshiro want to cry uncontrollably but he sustains himself. He can't break down. Not now.

'I think you already know why,' Toshiro murmurs as Gin places his hands on top of his while they lie on his knees. Gin encloses those petite hands in his and begins tracing circles in their palms with his fingers. Toshiro shivers at the ticklish feeling they are giving him.

'Even if I did, there is nothing I can do,' Gin answers gently as he now rubs the upper side of the hands, his hand sliding roughly over the bandaged wrist. Toshiro winces at the pain but Gin doesn't stop. It seems, Gin's having a hard time convincing himself that he should resist anymore. Toshiro presses on.

'On the contrary,' Toshiro says simply as he leans his head against the wall and looks up to the ceiling. 'Only you can stop my tears.'

He feels a weight shift onto his legs and he cries out in alarm. He looks down and finds his face uncomfortably in close proximity of Gin's. Gin moves his head to Toshiro's ear and breathes on it, causing goose bumps to rise up and down Toshiro's body. His hands are now planted on either side of Toshiro's thigh. Toshiro takes a sharp intake of breath.

'I've been thinking, Toshiro,' Gin breathes into his ear and the yearning in his tone sets Toshiro's face on fire.

'About what?' he can't help asking. Then, Gin kisses his temple and Toshiro jumps slightly. Did Gin just…?

'That maybe…' he pauses as he brushes his lips against where he had just kissed him.

'Maybe?' Gin is now tracing his lips along Toshiro's jaw and down to his neck, avoiding his lips.

'This…' He stops at his collarbone.

'This?' Gin runs a tongue over it and Toshiro shivers.

'Isn't so…' He kisses the jutting bone tenderly.

'Isn't so?' Toshiro balls his hands on his knees into fists.

'Bad,' Gin finishes as he brings his face level with Toshiro's. He's now completely in Toshiro's lap and Toshiro is afraid to even breathe for fear it might upset this beautiful moment. Gin then moves his hand to finger Toshiro's hurt wrist. 'I just hurt you. Not for the first time but the second. I just realized that I've been so selfish when it came to you. I was so wrapped up in keeping you at a distance and hiding my feelings, I didn't realize that I was hurting you instead of helping you. I hurt you physically…' he pauses to take a gasp of air as if the very memory hurt him. '…when I tried to shun your feelings for me. I'm such an….ass.'

He grits his teeth and hangs his head in shame.

'You can hate me now. I deserve it,' he says with a tone of finality. He's about to move away when Toshiro cups his face in his hands and raises it to meet his. Gin cracks his eyes open and holds his breath at the look of happiness and forgiveness on the boy's face, like Gin is his world. On the contrary, the boy is his world.

'Now why would I want to do that when I love you so much?' Toshiro whispers and traces his fingers across Gin's parted lips. The lips then twist into a grin and plunge into a passionate kiss.

Toshiro hits his head against the wall but Gin cushions it with his hand as he coaxes the boy's mouth open so he can slip his tongue in. Toshiro allows him willingly and runs his fingers through Gin's hair. Gin then directs Toshiro to lie vertically on the gurney so he can crawl on top of him. Toshiro's body arches upwards to meet Gin's and the contact causes a spark of pleasure to coarse through him. He feels Gin moan into his lips. Gin rears his head back a little, gasping as he does and licks Toshiro's lips, savouring their taste. He plants kisses down to the point joining Toshiro's neck and shoulder. He nibbles there, causing a gasp to issue from Toshiro's lips. The sound excites Gin and he sinks his teeth in gently at first but then bites down harder. He sucks on his neck like a hungry vampire, driven by the mewling pouring out of his prey. He moves up to gently nip Toshiro's earlobe.

'Here,' he whispers hoarsely into his ear. 'I want to do it here. Now.'

Toshiro answers with another gasp of pleasure, grabbing Gin by his shirt and driving his body against Gin's. That's answer enough for Gin. He gently settles Toshiro's body back on the gurney, careful not to touch his hurt wrist. He draws Toshiro into a deep kiss as he straddles his waist while slowly undoing the buttons on his shirt. He pushes it back and marvels at the smoothness and youthfulness of his flawless skin. He runs his fingers down, tracing his collarbone, pinching his pink nipples, drawing circles around his belly button and finally stopping at his pants. Toshiro whines impatiently and Gin chuckles as he pats him on the cheek.

'Patience,' he murmurs to his love and plays with a lock of hair. 'I want to enjoy your body as much as I can.'

'Don't deny me yours then,' Toshiro mutters as he tugs at Gin's shirt and blushes. Gin laughs again as he pulls his shirt off hastily to appease the young boy. Now it's Toshiro's turn to admire the slim and beautiful body displayed to him. While he busies himself in feeling up Gin's torso, the man above him lifts him up to slip his pants off along with his boxers. The feeling of cold air hits his bare skin, causing Toshiro to inhale sharply.

'Have you ever done this before?' he asks uncertainly, clutching the sheets underneath him.

'You'd be surprised,' Gin smirks and taps his fingers to Toshiro's mouth. 'It's simple and hurts less once you get used to it. But it's my first time being on top. Just do as I say. Now suck.'

Toshiro obeys and coats the long digits in his saliva completely before Gin pulls it out to replace the free mouth with his own.

'Tell me if it hurts and I'll stop,' he murmurs into the kiss. Toshiro doesn't know what he means until he feels something wriggle into his tight entrance. He pulls away from the kiss and tries to get away from the eerie feeling of something inside him. Gin hushes him by pulling him closer and makes their chests touch. Toshiro grabs his shoulders to steady himself as a second finger enters him, moving in a scissor fashion. He wants to cry out in pain and tell Gin to stop but as he looks up, he sees the gentle and loving way Gin is looking at him and he forgets the pain.

'Gin loves me now, he really loves me,' he thinks to himself joyfully and bites on his lips as a third finger enters him.

'G-Gin!' he gasps and digs his nails into Gin's shoulder. The man doesn't flinch. He instead smoothes the hair on the boy's head in a soothing way.

'Just be patient,' he whispers again and wriggles his fingers inside until he hears moan and he stops. This moan is so lustful it can only mean he has found the boy's prostrate. The moan is so delectable and enticing; it causes Gin's erection to become hard. He glances at his face and notes the look of pleasure wrought on Toshiro's face. He quickly pulls his fingers out, causing a whine to escape the boy's mouth. He had his eyes closed but he cracks one open when Gin pulls his hand away. His breathing becomes slow and shallow now.

'Now what?' he says breathlessly but it seems he already knows what's next. Gin has already undressed himself and has positioned himself near the boy's entrance. Gin laughs softly.

'The best part,' he murmurs and pushes past the ring of muscle. Toshiro cries out in pain and grips Gin's shoulder even harder. His hips buck upwards but Gin holds them down with his hands. He runs his hands down his thighs to help calm him down and relax. Once the boy has relaxed his body, Gin pushes in even further, Toshiro's moans hitching higher with every push until he hits the spot. The moan escalates, causing Gin to almost release. He joins the moan with his own and slowly pulls out only to push back in. he's moving slowly but soon picks up speed.

'F-Faster, Gin…' Toshiro moans and his hands have travelled down from Gin's shoulders to his muscled arms. His fingernails dig into the flesh but Gin doesn't mind. He loves the feel of his small and delicate hands on his bare body. The bandages on his broken wrist run roughly along his arm and he grabs his gently, bringing it to his lips to kiss the injury.

'I'm sorry I ever hurt you, Toshiro,' he whispers and rams into Toshiro for like the fifth time. Toshiro's body moves with the rhythm and sweat is now forming on his body.

'Don't be,' Toshiro murmurs back and arches his head back as Gin hits his prostrate again. 'Because it was all worth it in the end.'

He can't believe he can still think. His body is so overwhelmed with desire and pleasure; it's only moving to please itself with no thought of letting Toshiro think logically. Gin nails his prostrate with every thrust and each thrust causing a thrill of pure pleasure to run up his body and cloud his mind. Both of them escalate into a high moan before Gin releases. Toshiro can feel something hot and viscous trickling down his hole and staining the bed sheets. Gin sighs in exhaustion and braces his hands on either side of Toshiro's head to stop himself from falling onto the boy. Toshiro is breathing heavily as he realizes what had just happened. He covers his face with the crook of his arm. For a minute, he thinks he's just had a dream. It can't be real. It just seemed too much like a fantasy right now…

Gin pulls his hand away and grins foxily at him. Toshiro smiles back weakly. No. it happened. It actually happened. And it sent his heart ablaze with passion and a thrill of happiness. He's finally found his love. Ichigo was right. He'll find his soul mate one day. It just coincidently happened to be today. Gin bends down to plant a kiss on his wet chest and then runs a sucks on the hickey he had made at the junction of Toshiro's neck and shoulder.

'How was that for a first time?' he says slyly.

'Not bad,' Toshiro smirks and tries to get up but Gin pushes him back down.

'That's all you have to say?' Gin pouts and grins as he kisses him playfully on the lips. 'Well then, I'll just have to keep going until it's the best you've ever had.'

Toshiro begins to protest but Gin covers his mouth with his hand and kisses his forehead. His smile widens.

'I love you, Toshiro,' he says fondly.

'I love you too, Gin,' Toshiro says, a thrill in his voice and he drapes his arms around his neck, clasping them together behind it. And Gin fucks him lovingly for the second time but slower this time so they both can enjoy the company and love of one another. At that moment, nothing else mattered.
