Chapter 17: Naughty Night

x
((Renji felt a deep, burning blush spread over his cheeks as he became aware of the fact that his body was not only hard as a rock, but also, due to his position sitting on Byakuya's thighs, was pressed up against the bottom curve of the smaller Soul Reaper's perfect little ass.))
x

Byakuya had easily been able to follow what was going on with his partner. The younger man had been on the brink of arousal since before the massage had even started, and he was sure he'd inadvertently pushed Renji over the edge when he'd expressed his pleasure the way he had. He'd been talking about the back-rub, of course, but the moment those words had left his lips, he'd realized how they sounded.

Right then, he'd felt the Rukon Dog respond, the firm strokes on his back easing into tender caresses as the breathing above him became a shade deeper, while the body pressed against his ass had turned hard as stone.

Byakuya realized he wasn't surprised by this turn of events, and he didn't mind at all. It pleased and flattered him that he could affect the bigger Soul Reaper so easily, and an excitement grew in him as he realized this could turn into something more fun and a bit less tame than a massage.

Byakuya had actually been holding back his own response; the feel of Renji sitting there on the backs of his thighs as those big, gentle hands had molded his muscles into jelly had been a marvelous combination, and his own aching body was trapped between his stomach and the couch.

Renji then became perfectly still, as if he'd just noticed that he'd been zoned out the last few minutes. "Umm, Byakuya? I don't suppose I'm lucky enough for you not to have noticed that?"

Knowing that his subordinate was most likely talking about his arousal, Byakuya turned his head on his arms so he was looking back and up out of the corner of his eye. "Did you think you put me to sleep with the massage? Of course I noticed, and don't you think I would have said something by now if it was bothering me?"

Renji's cheeks were stained red, and he seemed too flustered to realize Byakuya was not bothered. "I'm sorry, baby. I promise the back-rub wasn't a trick or anything. It's just... it's even easier for me to get frisky when I been drinkin', and you just look so beautiful layin' there and smellin' like Rukon and my lotion, and you were makin' the prettiest little sounds when I was poppin' and rubbin' your back. I'm really sorry, baby, I swear I only meant to give you a massage."

Byakuya smiled reassuringly, not doubting that Renji really had intended to behave. "It is ok, my sweet Renji. I promise it's fine. Would it make you feel better if you knew you weren't the only one affected?"

Those auburn eyes darkened and he felt a slight shiver in the man sitting on his thighs as Renji spoke in a low voice. "Damn, baby, I dunno if that's what you should be tellin' me right now."

He shrugged, asking softly. "Just how determined are you to not do anything tonight, just so you can prove something I already believe?"

The crimsonette whispered, "Not as determined as I was, that's for sure. Especially if you really do believe me, cause then I ain't got nothing to prove, right?"

Byakuya nodded. "That's right. And I do believe you when you say the intimate stuff isn't the most important to you."

The dark honey eyes narrowed, and he felt the big hands wrap around his hips as his partner growled, "I swear it's not. My cock just ain't got that message- he thinks intimate stuff should be top priority, the greedy jerk."

Byakuya couldn't help but giggle, charmed by his host's attempt to displace any possible blame. "I see; so your cock is the selfish one here, not you?"

The redhead nodded emphatically, hands tightening on his hips. "Exactly! So, in the interest of being fair or whatever, I'm 'bout to do something really stupid and ask if you want me to get up off you before I try doing something even more stupid."

Byakuya narrowed his eyes as his frustration finally got the better of him. "Don't you dare get up. You've already gotten me all hot and bothered twice tonight; on the rooftop and a little while ago. Both times, you stopped. Don't you fuckin' dare do that to me again, especially after having the nerve to imply I have a cruel streak."

Renji's deep coppery eyes widened, then narrowed as he gave that slow, seductive grin. "Oh, so many ways I could go now. Hmm, should I apologize for stopping earlier... or ask what the fuck makes you think you can talk to me like that?"

Byakuya felt his eyes widen at the second option, and his heart raced in anticipation. As if sensing his decision, Renji kept that sexy, fang-baring smile on his face as he leaned down, murmuring, "I am sorry I left you high and dry earlier, but that's no excuse to get all bossy and demanding, cussing at me like that. Don't you know you're with someone who just might get ridiculously turned on from you talkin' like that? Shame on you, Taicho."

Byakuya shivered as the warmth of the bigger Soul Reaper enveloped him, Renji's body settling on top of him. The Rukon Dog braced his elbows on either side of him, and the big hands snaked under his upper arms to wrap around his wrists gently, but just firmly enough to tell him who was in charge.

He found himself reveling in the feeling, thoroughly captured, but safer than he'd ever been in his life. His partner nuzzled his hair out of the way and lightly nipped his neck, asking in a soft growl, "Hey baby? When you said you liked the things we've done, did that include dry fuckin'?"

Byakuya nodded, already too breathless to trust his voice, and laid his cheek on one of the strong hands holding him prisoner. He shifted his hips encouragingly, and was rewarded by Renji grinding against his ass. The movements pressed his throbbing member against the couch cushion, making him whimper in pleasure as he finally got the attention he'd been craving.

His companion's sultry voice whispered into his ear, "I love when you make that sound, baby." He felt his boyfriend shift above him, then a knee touched the back of his thighs as Renji breathed, "Spread your legs for me, Taicho."

He didn't hesitate to obey, parting his legs and feeling the younger man settle between them. The crimsonette practically purred in approval. "There you go, good. Gods, you have nooo fuckin' idea how long I been wanting to say that to you."

The bigger Soul Reaper shifted to press against him, and through their hakamas, he felt the hard length settle between his cheeks. It felt so intimate, so right, and Byakuya blushed as he tilted his hips back invitingly. Renji growled and gently bit his shoulder as they began grinding together.

It seemed like every point of contact between them was sending currents of tingles and waves of pleasure through him, from the hands on his wrists to the teeth on his shoulder to where Renji was tucked between his spread thighs, and he felt so warm and tingly and safe and happy, as if in this moment, everything in his world was right.

Byakuya whimpered softly as his body tightened. "Ahh, Renjiii, please... oh gods, this feels so good."

The teeth on his shoulder migrated to his ear, capturing the lobe. He shivered in pleasure, and the body pinning him to the couch vibrated with a rough moan. He could feel precum leaking from his aching member where it was trapped in his hakamas and being rubbed between his stomach and the couch. He'd been held back all night, and now, gods, he wasn't going to be able to last much longer. The thought of this ending so soon because of him almost brought tears to his eyes, and he whimpered pleadingly. "Wa-wait, so close, too fast."

Byakuya felt his partner nuzzle into his neck, murmuring, "Shhh, 's alright, baby, you can let go, I ain't goin' nowhere. Cum for me, just for me, I promise I'm right behind you."

The hands on his wrists released him, but didn't leave him. One gently captured his hair while the other arm slid under his hands. "Hold onto me, baby." He obediently wrapped his hands around his partner's forearm and leaned his forehead against it, whimpering in pleasure and desperate need as they ground together harder, faster, the rhythm becoming rougher as they moved against each other.

Within moments, the pressure snapped, and Byakuya cried out in ecstasy as he began cumming so hard, he thought he might die. The hand in his hair tightened, turning his head so the Rukon Dog could watch his orgasm wash over him. he cried out again, gasping and whimpering as he dug his fingers into the younger man's arm, while those intense coppery eyes gazed at him.

Still grinding against his ass, Renji purred, "That's it, baby. Even more beautiful when you're cummin' for me."

Still in the throes of his climax, Byakuya panted, "My..orgasms..belong..to you."

The bigger Soul Reaper growled, "Damn straight. And mine belong to you."
Both strong arms wrapped around him tightly as Renji kissed him, and he felt warmth soaking through both pairs of hakamas, the slick heat spreading over his ass and lower back. He realized he liked the feeling of his partner's essence on him; he had been the one to drive his boyfriend that far, and it was almost like Renji was marking him in a way.

His subordinate stayed on top of him, holding him tight as they both rode out the uncontrollable shivers of pleasure, twitching and panting as they recovered. The embrace didn't even loosen until Byakuya stopped trembling, Renji holding him protectively.

After several moments of them basking in warm, tingly relief, the crimsonette shifted off of his back, but didn't put a hair of distance between them, staying against his side and laying partly on him, arm and leg draped over his body. Byakuya blushed as his companion started nuzzling him. "I fuckin' love you, Byakuya. Do you know how awesome you are?"

He smiled shyly as he replied with a deliberate slur in his voice. "Well, I gotta be at least a little awesome if 'm makin' someone as wonderful as you happy, yeah?"

The response was just as he'd hoped- Renji's eyes widened with surprise, then he gave a soft laugh. "Oh gods! You can even talk Rukon! How'd you do that? Is it weird that I think that's sexy?"

He shook his head, nuzzling the arm still stretched out under it. "Nah, not weird. An' 'm a fast learner- I list'n to you an' Shuuhei an' the others. Figured you'd like it, just how you like my scent when I smell like the pack. Rukon's part of who you are, honey, part of what makes you awesome."

The younger man smiled warmly at him. "You sure are talented, baby. You can even make someone feel like growin' up on the streets ain't something to be ashamed of. We all have it, the shame 'bout starting our lives there. You totally just made me feel better about it."

Byakuya shifted and tilted his head to kiss his partner on the temple. "The Rukongai did not break you, my strong, beautiful Renji, and that is something to be proud of. Your life may not have been easy, but it made you stronger and kinder than anyone else I know."

He saw the gratitude in the auburn eyes that lifted to his as Renji smiled and whispered, "Thank you, Byakuya. You know, just when I think it's not possible to love you any more than I already do, you go and say or do something I didn't expect, but means the world to me, and I love you even more."

Byakuya opened his mouth, the words in his heart begging to be said, for that declaration surely deserved them. But once again, they stuck in his throat, and he hesitated, slowly closing his mouth and lowering his eyes.

Immediately, the arm around him tightened, and Renji was nuzzling him. "Shh, baby, I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to make you uncomfortable or anything. Look, I feel the same way about this that I do about sex. Even if you never feel that way about me, or can never say it, as long as we can be together and I'm making you happy, I'm ok with that."

Byakuya met the warm, worried honey eyes and took a deep breath. "Renji, I've only ever told 2 people that I loved them. Yorurichi, I told her I loved her and that she was like a big sister to me. She disappeared from the Seretei the next day. And the other was Hisana."

Renji's dark amber eyes widened as they filled with realization. "The only 2 people you ever told, neither said it back... and they both left you. Oh, Byakuya, I'm so sorry."

He gave a tiny nod, whispering, "I think that's why I can't say it, but... Renji, that doesn't mean that I don't feel it, and... this feeling scares me because it's never felt this strong... it's never felt quite like this."

His partner stared at him for a long moment, coppery eyes searching his. Then the younger man asked hesitantly, "Taicho, would... would you let me read your energy like you read mine in the office the other day?"

Byakuya only hesitated for a heartbeat before he nodded, shifting to tuck himself tighter against the bigger Soul Reaper. He nudged his head under his lieutenant's chin and closed his eyes, taking a deep, shaky breath. Then he let his riatsu fan out around them as he focused on what this man meant to him.

Renji held him in a tight, protective embrace, and he felt when his spiritual pressure was tentatively touched. He heard a small gasp as his energy was read. "Oh, baby."

His companion held onto the energy for a few more moments, then released it, and he felt Renji start shaking. "By-Byakuya?"

He lifted his head to see the Rukon Dog smiling at him with tears in his eyes as he breathed, "I love you, too, Byakuya."

~X~X~X~X~

Renji was hardly able to breathe, so touched by what he'd found in his partner's riatsu. Byakuya loved him!

The noble truly felt that way; he loved him so much, it was frightening to the ravenette because he'd never felt so strongly, even desperately, about anyone before. Between being raised to keep emotions in check, and the loss of love he'd suffered, Byakuya's love was intense, but he was terrified that this, too, would be snatched away.

Renji smiled reassuringly, even as he brushed away the happy tears escaping his eyes. "Don't be scared, baby. I promise it's gonna be alright. I'm not gonna leave you, and if you ever can say that out loud, I swear on my life I'll say it back."

The big violet-steel eyes gazed up at him as Byakuya whispered, "I... I want to stay with you, Renji. I want us to be together for a very long time, and I want to be able to eventually say and do things I can't yet."

Renji nodded, kissing the Kuchiki heir on the cheek. "That sounds good, baby. I want us to stay together, too."

He tilted his head as something occurred to him. "Hey Byakuya? I gotta tell you something. See, as far as an actual relationship goes, you're not really supposed to be all possessive or think of your partner as 'yours' until you've gone all the way. But, well... I've already started to think of you as mine. Not like I own you or control you or anything like that, but mine to make happy and mine to spend time with. I already think of you as mine, and if someone other than my pack flirts with you, or even looks at you funny, I'm gonna kick their ass, and I need to know if you're ok with that."

His partner replied softly, "Under one condition."

Relieved that his confession hadn't freaked out the older man, Renji asked, "What?"

His companion blushed lightly. "As long as you're ok with me doing pretty much the same thing. The pack is one thing, and I really don't mind the affection you share with them. But if someone outside of your friends were to touch you or kiss you, I think I might kill them. I have already started to feel quite possessive over you, and thought it was a silly way to feel since we've only been together 3 days, including the day I first came over to apologize."

Renji shook his head, smiling. "It's not a silly way to feel, baby. I like that you feel possessive over me. We'll just be a couple of possessive boyfriends together."

The noble giggled softly. "With selfish, greedy cocks?"

He laughed, tightening his hold on the smaller Soul Reaper. "Sure thing, baby."

They laid quietly for a while, Renji stroking his guest's hair as slender fingers traced the markings wrapped around his biceps.

Then Byakuya asked softly, "Renji, will it hurt?"

Having phased out a bit, he blinked and frowned. "Huh? Will what hurt?"

He registered the faint blush on pale cheeks as his superior whispered, "When... when I am ready, will it hurt to go all the way?"

Renji hesitated thoughtfully. "It might at first, just cause it's been so long. But it won't hurt too bad, and the pain won't last very long, if it hurts at all. More likely, it'll just be really uncomfortable till your body adjusts, then it'll feel good."

Realizing why his partner would ask this, he asked gently, "It hurt a lot before, huh?"

The ravenette gave a tiny nod, breathing, "The whole time, every time."

Renji frowned at the mental image that popped into his head. "Gods, I wish I had a chance at that bastard. Don't worry, baby. Even if it does hurt, I can promise it won't hurt nearly as bad as that. I'm gonna be really careful, and I'll make sure I prepare you real well first."

When Byakuya tilted his head curiously, he felt like an idiot. "Sorry, should've known you wouldn't know 'bout preparation. Um, ok. I'll use my fingers on your body first. I put my fingers inside you, one at a time, and this helps your body stretch and relax, get it ready so that it's not a shock when we go further."

Renji wrinkled his nose and sighed. "I don't think I'm explaining this very well, Taicho."

His partner was blushing deeply, but giving him a shy smile. "I think you're doing ok. I understand the concept now. Umm, I think you may need to prepare me a lot, because you... you're bigger than he was."

Renji felt his eyes widen, unsure if he was more surprised or amused by this, or stunned that his size hadn't freaked out the ravenette if he was really more endowed than his abuser, or proud that his moon could handle his member with such finesse. "You talkin' 'bout down there? I'm bigger?"

The noble nodded, blushing even harder as he raised his eyebrows and whispered, "Are you sure it'll fit?"

Renji tried not to laugh, he really did. But the chuckles just came out as he tilted his head to nuzzle his companion. "Yeah, I'll fit, baby." He nuzzled into silky black hair as he continued. "And I'll prepare you real good first, but it'll probably still be uncomfortable until you get used to it. After that, I promise it'll feel so very good. Do you have any other questions? I'll tell you anything you wanna know 'bout this."

The older man thought for a moment, then shrugged, looking a bit self-conscious as he murmured, "I don't really have any more questions right now, because I don't even know what to ask, or what I should know. But, would... would you just tell me about it? The way it's supposed to be?"

Renji nodded, knowing what a hard place his poor moon was in right now. "Yeah, I'll tell you all about it. But let's go take a shower while I'm tellin' you. I got you all messy earlier."

He saw Byakuya blush as they got up. "I didn't mind. I actually kind of liked it, knowing that I was the one to make you cum, and... this probably sounds strange, but it was almost like you were marking me as yours with your release. I rather enjoyed that sensation."

Trying to hide his pleased grin so his partner wouldn't get any more embarrassed, Renji replied, "You oughtta be careful what you tell your perverted boyfriend, or he's gonna think it's ok to cum on you, and he likes that idea. Watching his essence leave his cock and land on that pretty, pale skin... yeah, he likes that idea a lot. Your boyfriend is such a perv, Byakuya!"

The ravenette tossed his head and strode ahead of him to the bathroom. "I know, he's incorrigible. The worst part is, I think he's turning me into a pervert as well."

Renji chuckled as they got undressed. "Oh, the horror! Gods forbid you should have any perverted thoughts. The head of the great Kuchiki clan is above such things."

His companion smirked at him. "But of course. And now I have this perverted boyfriend who makes me think I'd be willing to try just about anything with him. Such audacity."

They smiled at each other as they got in the shower and Renji turned it on. He sat on the bench, watching as Byakuya rinsed off first. "You still want me to tell you about it, baby?"

He received a shy nod as the noble started checking out his body washes, selecting one. As the smaller Soul Reaper began lathering up, Renji took the cloth from him and had the ravenette join him on the bench.

Renji began gently cleaning his guest as he spoke softly. "You gotta have lubrication, first off. Saliva and cum both work pretty well in a pinch, but oil is the best. Lotion will work, too."

He shifted off the bench to kneel at his partner's feet, tenderly running the soapy cloth along the smooth, slender legs. "And I dunno if you knew this, but men have a sweet spot inside them, and it feels so good to get touched there."

He got back onto the bench and started washing his boyfriend's back as Byakuya whispered, "Will I bleed?"

Renji shook his head, watching the white lather spread over the soft skin that was lightly flushed from the warmth of the shower. "No. If you ever bleed at all, it's only supposed to be the very first time. I doubt I'll make you bleed... though, I haven't ever taken someone who hasn't been touched in over 100 years. I'm gonna be really careful, baby, I promise."

Dark platinum eyes met his as his companion got up to rinse off. "I know, Renji. I still don't think you'd maliciously hurt me, no matter what that little voice tries to say." Renji watched as the older man stepped under the spray to rinse off, the water chasing the foamy lather down the slender, sleekly muscled body.

Lucky soap and water.

He spoke gently. "I wouldn't hurt you, not if I had anything to say about it. Oh, I got shampoo and conditioner if you wanna do your hair. I'll wash it for you."
His partner nodded and came to sit by him. He grabbed the bottle and squeezed some shampoo into his hand, then began carefully working it into the wet black strands, hearing a pleased little sigh.

Renji murmured, "I got a couple questions for you, if that's alright?"

Byakuya nodded, leaning into his attention. He asked softly, "Well, whenever we do that, are you ok with me releasin' inside you?"

Immediately, his superior's cheeks reddened, though he answered calmly. "I don't see a problem with that. Why wouldn't it be ok?"

Renji shrugged, keeping his tone gentle. "Trust me, some people who've been forced don't want their partner cummin' in them, not till they've gotten a lot more comfortable. I just wanted to make sure."

He stood and guided his guest to the shower-head to rinse out the black mane, running his fingers through the ebony strands as Byakuya replied softly. "I think I'll be ok with you cumming in me, Renji. I don't think I'll have a bad reaction. See, whenever I felt that before, it... it was a good thing, because it meant he was about to leave me alone."

Renji leaned his head on a pale shoulder, carefully wrapping his arms around the slim waist. "I'm sorry I'm making you think about him, baby. I just got one more question about that, then I promise we can change the subject."

He felt Byakuya nod, hearing him say, "It is alright, Renji. I understand you need to know these things, and it is becoming easier to talk about this with you."

Renji hesitated, then whispered, "What... what positions did he hurt you in?"

The smaller Soul Reaper trembled in his arms, and he tightened his hold, trying to reassure his partner as he heard the soft reply. "Only one position... I was always on my back... with him on to-top of me. Why?"

Renji hastened to explain himself. "I needed to know what positions to avoid, baby. I'm sorry I had to ask, but if I didn't know, I might've tried that one and made you freak out, see? I'm so sorry, baby."

Byakuya turned in his arms to face him, the amethyst-steel eyes lifting to his. "There is no need to apologize. I understand the reason now. I am grateful you are trying so hard to make sure I'll be ok whenever we do take that step. It is a good thing you asked, because I certainly wouldn't have thought to bring it up, and I imagine that could have been a bad freak-out, worse than when I saw the bed."

Renji cringed at the very thought. "Yeah, that would've been bad. I'm glad you understand why I asked. You wanna change the subject now?"

The ravenette tilted his head. "More like, shift the subject. I don't want to talk about him anymore right now, but I would like to stay on the subject of sex, and us. Since we now know there is only one position to avoid, I am quite curious about others we might use."

Renji smiled at his partner, proud of how he'd sailed through the awkward parts of the conversation and still wanted to talk about intimate stuff. "Sure thing, baby. There's actually a lot of positions that can be used. In all fairness, some would include you being on your back or me on top of you, but not at the same time, and we'll be careful if we try those."

He got the soapy cloth so he could wash up while talking, surprised when Byakuya took it from him and pointed at the bench. Obediently, he sat down, his captain following and kneeling at his feet. As his boyfriend returned the favor of washing him, Renji continued talking. "Since you obviously liked what we did earlier, we might be able to use that position, you on your stomach and me on top of you. Did it make you nervous at all to be like that?"

The older man shook his head as he ran the soapy cloth along his legs. "No. I felt safe the whole time, even when you were holding my wrists. Granted, you weren't holding tightly, but I was aware it wouldn't take much for you to really keep me from being able to move, Renji. I still felt safer than I have in my entire life."

Pleased to hear this, Renji smiled as the Kuchiki heir moved to the bench and began lathering his arms, paying special attention to his markings. "I'm glad to hear that, baby. I know I've said this before, but I really want you to feel safe with me. If you ever don't, I want you to tell me, k?"

Deep violet-chrome eyes lifted to his as his partner nodded. "I will tell you, but at the moment, I can't imagine a situation where I wouldn't feel safe with you."

Touched by these words, Renji smiled as he tilted his head to touch his lips to his companion's. The smaller Soul Reaper kissed back, shifting closer to him on the bench. He felt Byakuya drop the cloth, and soap-slicked fingers began caressing the markings that lined his ribs.

Wanting to get done with washing before anything else, Renji gently broke the kiss, lightly capturing the slender wrist as he smirked. "Ah, don't think you can get out of washing my back so easy. I'll skip my hair if you're really that eager to get something started, though."

His partner blushed and gave a soft laugh as he picked up the soapy cloth. "Fine, turn around and I'll do your back."

Renji obeyed, pulling his wet scarlet mane over one shoulder out of the way. He could practically feel that intense platinum gaze traveling the markings that adorned his back, and he shivered at the sensation.

The soapy cloth touched his back, gently caressing every inch. Slender fingers joined the cloth, tracing his muscles and his markings as he heard his boyfreind's voice, soft and full of something akin to wonder. "They really are beautiful, honey. All of them look so magnificent on you, and they make you look... wild and ferocious."

Renji grinned over his shoulder. "I'm totally ferocious; you're lucky I ain't eaten you right up! You know, Byakuya, a lot of people like my markings, but it means the most to me that you like 'em."

He felt the ravenette continue tracing each set of ebony designs down his back to the set that flared just above his ass, winging up and out from his tailbone to curve over his cheeks and frame the back half of his hips. This particular pattern was usually hidden by his hakamas and couldn't be seen from the front, and Renji smiled when he felt his partner linger on this set.

The noble whispered, "I really like these ones, Renji."

He kept the smile on his face as he murmured, "The only people who've gotten that good a look at that set is people who have... 'fully experienced' my submissive side."

Renji sensed a slight curiosity, even though he was no longer looking at his partner, and he chuckled. "Going back to the subject of positions, when I'm submissive, one of my favorites is being on my hands and knees. That's how people have seen those markings. And of course, I like being dominant over someone in that position. There's something... I dunno, something primal about it, and a lot of people like that position, whether they're bottoming or topping at the time."

He felt Byakuya stop touching his back, and he glanced over his shoulder, wondering if he'd taken the conversation too far. The noble was staring at him with wide eyes and a flush on his cheeks, and had his bottom lip caught between his teeth. Renji asked softly, "Hey baby, did I make you uncomfortable?"

The older man shook his head and glanced down. Renji followed the amethyst eyes down to see that his boyfriend had gotten turned on, his arousal standing up from the soft nest of black curls and demanding attention. He looked back up to his partner and gave his slow smile, murmuring, "Well, that's interesting, baby."

The smaller Soul Reaper blushed harder, fidgeting with the cloth as if he wanted to cover himself with it. "Gods, I don't think I've ever gotten turned on by a conversation before! And I... I know I've never gotten aroused so frequently in my life as I have in the last 3 days."

His own body responding to the situation, Renji shifted to nuzzle the Kuchiki heir as he spoke gently. "Don't be embarrassed, baby. It's a really good thing; I love how responsive you are, and you've got a great recovery time, and I take it as a compliment that I get you so frisky. Besides, if I was the only one getting turned on all the time, I'd seriously look like a perv."

He shifted further so that Byakuya could see that he wasn't the only one affected, and his companion's blush lightened a bit as he received a shy smile. He nodded encouragingly. "There ya go, Taicho. Nothin' to be embarrassed about, and if you wanna come with me to rinse all this soap off, maybe we can do something fun so these greedy lil' bastards will quit interruptin' us?"

Renji saw the violet-steel eyes widen as he got an excited little nod. He smiled reassuringly as he took a slender hand and guided the older man to join him under the spray of the shower. His superior took a bit of initiative and began using his hands to make sure all the soap was getting rinsed off of him.

Renji smiled proudly at the smaller Soul Reaper as the soft hands ran over his skin, reveling in the way his partner touched him and the way those lovely dark eyes admired his entire body. Even when every trace of soap was gone, Byakuya continued caressing him, and the platinum eyes rose to his.

Seeing that his boyfriend wasn't nervous, just unsure of what to do next, Renji smiled and murmured, "Wanna sit down with me?" A shy nod answered him, and he held the dark, aroused gaze as he reached up to turn the shower to a less forceful setting, then sat down on the tiled floor. "C'mere, baby. I'll take care of you."

He reached up and took the smaller hands in his own, gently guiding the ravenette to kneel over him. The slight weight settled on his thighs, Byakuya's knees on either side of Renji's hips. "That's it, my beautiful moon. So brave and doin' so good."

The amethyst eyes held his trustingly as they shifted tighter together, their hard members pressing against each other. As the shower gently sprinkled on them like rain, Renji wrapped one arm around the ravenette, holding him close while he lowered his other hand to their aching cocks. He touched them lightly, trailing his fingers all over the two pillars of rigid flesh.

Byakuya trembled, lifting his arms to wrap them around his shoulders and giving a soft whimper that was half-pleasure and half-complaint. Knowing what his captain was complaining about, Renji grinned seductively and continued his feather-light touches. "Yes, baby?"

The noble whimpered again as he tentatively rocked his hips, rubbing their lengths against each other. "Re-Renji, please."

Wanting to encourage his partner to be more bold, Renji murmured, "Show me what you want me to do, Taicho." With only a hint of shy hesitation, his brave, broken moon lowered one hand and wrapped it around Renji's, making him grasp their members together. The lithe body on his lap jolted, and they both moaned at the sensation.

Renji was incredibly glad that Byakuya liked their lengths being together like this, since it was very intimate considering their young relationship. He was filled with pride and pleasure when the slender hand covering his began guiding him to stroke their cocks, and his superior shivered in delight. "Ohhh, Renji. Oh, gods, this... this feels soo fuckin' good, honey."

Pleased by the words, he stroked them harder, his companion's hand staying on his as he watched the deep violet-chrome eyes darken further in pleasure. Renji loved the sight of his stoic Ice Prince becoming so wanton for him, panting softly with that gorgeous flush covering his cheeks as the shower continued raining on them.

The distorted light coming through the textured shower door caught the water droplets scattered over his captain, almost making it look as if his partner was covered in tiny diamonds. Smiling at the imagery, Renji stroked their members purposefully, whispering, "My beautiful Byakuya, all mine."

His boyfriend nodded frantically as his muscles began tensing, trembling as he whimpered breathlessly, "Yo-yours, Re-Renji, all yo-yours!"

Damn, that sounded so wonderful! Knowing that his companion was close, and feeling his own muscles tighten warningly, Renji purred, "Cum with me, baby. It's gonna feel so good." Then he tilted his head forward to rest it against Byakuya's, watching as the pale hand shifted on his to change the angle.

The air filled with their pleasured moans as they crested together, and Renji realized why his partner had changed the angle. Byakuya had tilted their lengths towards himself, so as they came, Renji got to watch their release erupt over the noble's stomach and chest.

He growled at the lovely sight as he pumped the slick strands onto that flawless porcelain skin. They were both trembling as the force of their mutual climax faded, and he gentled his strokes, slowly coaxing the last of their essence to ooze from the tips of their relieved cocks.

After a few moments of catching their breath, Renji lifted his head to see that Byakuya had watched the 'show', too, dark eyes on the pearls that now lay scattered over his chest and stomach. The noble raised those deep steel eyes to his and smiled at him, tilting his head to touch their lips together.

Renji happily returned the kiss, feeling the tiredness in it. He smiled as he gently broke the kiss and nuzzled his boyfriend. "You tired, baby?"

A yawn was his answer as Byakuya relaxed against him, mumbling, "'M sorry, not tryin' to fall 'sleep on you. Wanna... wanna..." Another yawn. "Wanna stay up and spend time with you."

Renji smiled as he continued to nuzzle the smaller Soul Reaper. "It's alright, Byakuya. I'm tired, too, and you've had a very long day. It's probably close to midnight by now." He gently curled his fingers under his superior's chin, coaxing the tired platinum eyes to meet his as he smiled reassuringly. "And don't worry 'bout our time together; remember, it's the weekend."

A sleepy grin rewarded him as Byakuya murmured, "I don't have anything I have to do. I only said that so I'd have an excuse to leave the bar. Not that I was in a hurry to leave, really- I was just ready to have you all to myself."

Renji nodded in understanding. "I get it, baby. You didn't have to explain; I know you were having fun there. Now, let me rinse you off, then we can go lay down and snuggle."

Renji smiled as his partner nodded with a peaceful, happy look on his fine features.

~X~X~X~X~

Byakuya felt himself being shifted, and he blinked sleepily at his redheaded companion, only half-aware of the blissful smile curving his own lips.

Hmm, was it raining?
No, they were in the shower, how silly of him.

He came a bit more awake when his ass touched the cool tile floor, and he frowned at his partner. Renji smiled indulgently at him. "I know, but I gotta rinse you off so we can go lay down, yeah?"

Not happy with the delay, but knowing it was necessary, he muttered, "I suppose." He watched as the Rukon Dog stood and pulled the shower-head down, a hose connecting it to the wall. His lieutenant kneeled by him, letting the rain-like spray rinse his chest first.

Holding the shower-head with one hand, the crimsonette used his other hand to tenderly caress his skin, making sure every trace of cum was gone as he spoke softly. "That was so very sexy, baby. I was right- your pervy boyfriend totally likes cummin' on you."

A sleepy giggle escaped him. "I likes it, too. I think I'm gonna let him mark me like that anytime he wants."

Renji chuckled as he finished rinsing him off. "I think he'd like that. C'mon, Taicho."

Byakuya felt himself being guided to his feet, then the redhead stepped out of the shower. He wanted to follow, but his legs started shaking weakly, and he found himself clinging to the wall like a drunk tree frog.

Renji reappeared with a large fluffy towel in his hands. "Oh, I'm sorry, baby. I didn't realize you were that tired. It's alright, I got you."

He gazed up into warm, caring amber eyes as the fluffy towel was gently wrapped around him, followed by a strong arm so his shaking legs didn't have to support him. He let himself lean against a solid chest, then, suddenly, his feet left the ground and he was being held bridal-style in the bigger Soul Reaper's arms.

Having not been expecting this sudden move, Byakuya yelped and flung his arms around broad shoulders. Then he saw Renji smiling, and he frowned. "Excuse me? What the hell is so amusing? I wasn't expecting that, and you scared me! Big meanie!"

Now that smile was trying to turn into a laugh as his boyfriend replied. "Nothin' amusin', baby. Didn't mean to scare you, sorry. We gotta go all the way to the front room, and you didn't really look like you wanted to walk, so I thought I'd help."

Byakuya felt his cheeks warming, and he tried to sound disapproving, but his reply sounded more like a pout. "I could've walked."

The powerful arms cradled him tighter to the broad chest as his boyfriend started nuzzling him, a sweet gesture of affection he was truly coming to enjoy. "Aww, but I wanna carry you. I won't tell nobody. You really want me to put you down?"

Byakuya didn't realize he was tightening his arms around the broad shoulders as he feigned a long-suffering sigh. "I suppose if it's really that important to you... I am already up here. Let's go."

Renji nodded, looking pleased as shit. "Yes, sir."

Safe and secure in his subordinate's arms, Byakuya's eyes fluttered closed as he was carried to the living room. He felt himself being carefully settled in the couch-nest, and he sighed happily, fully expecting to feel his companion lay down next to him.

Instead, it felt as if his partner was pulling away.

Byakuya managed to get one hand out of the towel to catch Renji's wrist. "Where you goin'? Don' leave."

He forced his eyes open to see the Rukon Dog gazing down at him. "It's alright, baby. I'm just getting us something to wear while we sleep, then I'll be right back. You don't want us to sleep naked, do you?"

He shrugged, tugging on the wrist he held. "Don' care. Don' want you to leave."

The Rukon Dog smiled warmly at him, crawling into the nest to lay by his side with a towel wrapped around his hips. "Ok, I'm not leaving. I actually do sleep naked sometimes, I just didn't think you'd be ok with us sleeping naked together."

Byakuya nodded, understanding. "I appreciate your concern, but I'm ok with it."

The younger man smiled and began drying him off with the towel wrapped around him. He moved one hand to gently trace the markings that adorned the tanned skin as he murmured, "You did well in the office while I was meditating, honey. Being quiet and trying not to disturb me. Thank you."

The redhead kissed him on the cheek as he carefully ran the towel along his hair. "You're welcome. I'm glad I did good. You know, it's so adorable when you're tired, but still trying to talk with me."

He shrugged, still tracing the black designs. "I love talking with you."

The towel drying his hair paused, and Renji tilted his head.

Realizing what he'd said, what he'd been able to say, Byakuya's eyes widened, his tiredness forgotten as he met that intense auburn gaze.

He might not be able to tell his boyfriend he loved him, but...
"I do. I love talking with you, Renji. I love how protective you are over me. And I love when we do intimate stuff together. I love your markings, and I love how you are with your pack. I love when you call me 'baby', and I especially love it when you say you love me."

His partner's eyes had widened as he spoke, and when he finished, Renji smiled blissfully, looking as if he'd just won the lottery. "I love you, too, baby. And you're totally welcome to tell me that kinda stuff anytime you want."

They shared a tender kiss, snuggling closer together as Renji ditched their damp towels and pulled the blanket over them. Byakuya nuzzled against the solid warmth, murmuring, "Would you keep talking, just for a bit? Your voice soothes me."

A gentle hand began stroking his hair as his boyfriend smiled. "You know, that position in the shower, that one can be used. A few more inches, and we could totally do it like that. I bet you'd look sexy as fuck riding me."

Byakuya blushed and giggled as he resumed tracing the patterns on the bigger Soul Reaper. "Honey, I meant your voice soothes me when you're not talking dirty."

The crimsonette chuckled softly. "I figured that's what you meant, but I couldn't resist. I'll behave now." The Rukon Dog curled up around him, holding him in a warm, safe embrace as he continued speaking in a soft tone. "That story you told Yachiru was really nice. I dunno if you noticed since you were focused on her, but the whole pack was listening to you."

Surprised to hear this, Byakuya blinked up at the redhead. "Really?"

Renji nodded, smiling at him. "Yeah, and they loved it. At least half of them had tears in their eyes when you were done, they were so touched. It was such a beautiful little story, and they all caught on that Yachiru was the princess, with Kenpachi being the king. I think everyone was also a little surprised by how good you were with both of them."

Realizing this might mean nobody had expected him to get along with Kenpachi, and worse, hadn't expected him to be good with children, Byakuya asked quietly, "Were you surprised by that, Renji?"

He got a sheepish, apologetic smile as the younger man shrugged. "It... it caught me off-guard a bit that you were so good with both of them. Don't take it offensively- me and the others were just surprised cause nobody from the Seretei would ever show such attention to any of us. But it made me really, really happy, baby. I loved seeing you bonding with my family. You were amazing, Byakuya."

He blushed and lowered his eyes, laying his hand over Renji's heart. "If... when it doesn't have to be a secret anymore, I would like it if we told the pack first. I want them to know, because I think they'd be happy for you, for us. And they made me feel completely welcome tonight, like I belonged. I want them to know about us first."

His companion's arms tightened around him, and he felt Renji kiss his temple. "That sounds good, baby. I'd like that, too. They would be happy for us, and I know they'd welcome you as part of the pack. Hell, I think half of them are ready to do that now, whether you or my secret partner."

Byakuya snuggled deeper into the embrace with a happy sigh, drifting to sleep as he sensed Renji's breathing deepen and even out. A small part of his mind that had been very busy the last few days continued working on something, even as he slept.
