Frustration

"I told you, I don't know anything else, Captain Yamamoto." I twitched at the close amount of attention the shinigami in the room were giving me.

After Isamu's disappearance had been noted, I had been the first to be questioned on his motives. After the betrayal of 3 trusted captains, everything was already on edge as the vice captains tried to take control of their divisions. Things were almost back to normal, but there'd always been that one worrying thought of another attack that we weren't ready for.

"You are dismissed." I stood up quickly, pushing past all those who stood in my way. I was ready to be left alone now; I was sick of being questioned all the time! It had been nearly a week since his disappearance and still people had the nerve to come fetch me for questioning at all hours of the day. Nothing was sacred anymore! I would get pulled away from my afternoon nap and my much needed bath time, it was like they were using any excuse to make me unhappy because of what Isamu did!

"Yo." Renji greeted me as I exited the first division barracks; I looked at him in surprise.

"You waited for me?" I asked curiously as we began to walk together. He nodded.

"Yeah, it's been hard to find you lately. Rukia said that you've been taken in for questioning every day this week, so I figured I could catch you here."

"Apparently it's the only place I'll ever be until Isamu is found." I let out an exhausted groan. "One day of them not barging in on me while I'm relaxing would be nice."

"Sounds like you need a drink."

"I could." I grinned up at him mischievously, hooking my arm with his. "Drinks are on you, Abarai~" He lets out an exhausted sigh, but from my peripheral vision I can see a smirk on his face.

I don't think he really minded.
