What can these two lost souls do in order to restart and move on into a new life.

5. Chapter 5

Saturday night Grimmjow was driving Oichi to Momo's house for game night. She was wearing a green and white striped sweater dress with black flats. Her hair was in a pony tail and she was wearing her glasses. Grimmjow was wearing causal clothes instead of one of his suits. He wore a black t-shirt with a panther paw on the front and button up light plaid jacket and blue jeans. He had his sunglasses on top of his head. Oichi was texting on her phone smiling.

"Who are you texting?" Grimmjow asked. "My sister. I told her about Renji and she's been blowing up my phone." "Your happy about that?" Oichi laughed. "Her insults are the best. I can't help but laugh. She says give her the time and place and she'd send killer bunnies to eat up his house." Grimmjow chuckled. "How terrifyingly cute." Oichi nodded. "Yeah." "Did you tell her about us." Oichi nodded. "Yeah. She wants pictures of you and me together and she wants to meet you. Says she doesn't want to miss interrogating you." "Interrogating?" Oichi rolls her eyes. "It's something my family does when someone new walks into someone's life. It would just be her though. My mom, dad, and other sister doesn't know yet. I asked her to keep quiet for a while."

Oichi looked at him. "By the way. Why are you wearing shades?" Grimmjow smirks. "Don't you think they look sexy on me?" Oichi giggles. "They do fit you better then glasses." "You look sexy in glasses. Why don't you wear them more often?" "They get in the way when I'm working and what not. I wear glasses on nights like game night or when I'm reading." Grimmjow reached over and rubbed her cheek. "Nervous?" Oichi grabbed his hand and linked it with hers. "A bit…I'm aware of how Nel is going to be but, I'm worried about Ichigo." "Berry head?" "I'm aware of his feelings for me. There was never a time or place to talk about it." Grimmjow pat her head. "He'll be fine. That Berry head will be fine. If anything, he'd fake it and move on. He would be happy that your happy at the least." Oichi smiled. "I hope so. I don't want him to be upset. He has done a lot for me. He's protected me, took up for me when me and Renji were together, he was like the big brother I've always wanted really. My parents thought he'd be the one for me but I just didn't see it."

Grimmjow slows down the car. "Is this the place?" Oichi looked up to see a huge house. There was a long drive way with lights on the side of the bath. There were already cars parked in the driveway and the lights were on the bottom floor. "Yeah this is it." "Damn…looks like a mansion. Didn't think your friends would be rich…" "Meh. It's a shared place. Four bedrooms, 3 and a half bathrooms, a grand Terrance, and a private pond in the back. We use that in the summer when we have cook outs and stuff. Momo, Kira, and Hisagi stay here together sometimes even though Hisagi has his own place. They share the bills and whatnot so since it's huge we have everything big over here. We plan on throwing a Halloween party if work doesn't get to busy."

Grimmjow pulled into the driveway and parked. "Sounds like you guys have a good time together." He turned the car off. "Is that ass wipe's car here?" Oichi shrugs. "I don't know if he carpooled or not." She looked around at the cars. "Kind of hard to tell but I don't see a car I don't recognize." Grimmjow got out and so did she. "Let's just have fun tonight. I did come here to show you off so do your best!" Oichi says grabbing her bag. Grimmjow chuckled. "You got it babe. I'll embarrass you so bad that your face will be a permanent shade of red." Oichi smacked his arm. "I'm just kidding!" Grimmjow says grabbing her hand. "I'll make sure your enjoy yourself tonight." He pulled her into a kiss. Oichi sighs into the kiss, pushing back a bit. They pulled apart. "I really do like kissing those lips of yours." Grimmjow says walking her to the door.

"Just keep it in your pants okay? Some of the games can get pretty heated." Grimmjow smirked. "Oooo…is that right huh." Oichi shakes her head as she rings the doorbell. It was opened by Momo. "You're here!" Momo says. She hugs Oichi. "I was so worried that you wouldn't show up!" "I couldn't miss your parties Momo." Momo stepped back and looked at Grimmjow. "You brought a date!?" Oichi blushed. "Uh Y-Yeah…" Oichi says. Momo giggles. "I knew you two were going to. It's a super givin since you to flirted so much!" Oichi's blushed deeper. "M-Momo…" Momo giggled. "Sorry. Come on in. Everyone is almost here."

She lets them in, closes the door, and the leads them to the living room. Ichigo, Orihime, Nel, Kira, Rangiku, Hisagi, Ikkaku, Yumichika and the rest of their friends were sitting in the circle sofa already in a heated argument about a card game they were playing.

Ichigo through down his cards. "I telling you Ikkaku you can't throw down just any card! Didn't anyone tell you about the rules of spades!" Ikkaku threw his cards down. "What the hell kind of game is this!? Explain how the number 2 beats a 5!" Nel sighs. "This is why we need to stick to uno or something easy. I don't feel like explaining the rules to you again." She says throwing her hand down. Yumichika chuckled as he threw his hand down as well. "Hell I told ya'll I didn't want to play this shit! Where the drinks at!" Ikkaku says. Momo shook his head. "I told you Kira and Hisagi will be back in a bit. Oichi and Grimmjow are here!"

"Who!?" They all looked to see Oichi and Grimmjow. "Um hi." Oichi says waving. Nel frowned. "Oh come on Oichi! This is the one day I can relax without looking at him!" Grimmjow rolled his eyes. "Nice to see you to…" Ichigo sighs. "Well come on. We are going to get started on phase 10 since Ikkaku over can play spades. Oichi nodded. "Okay. Any penalty?" "Not yet, drinks aren't here." Oichi and Grimmjow took a set on the front section of the couch. There wasn't a tv in the living room. It was in the entertainment room instead.

Ikkaku was eyeing Grimmjow as Ichigo started shuffling the cards. "Got a staring problem or something?" Grimmjow says. Ikkaku narrowed his eyes. "Don't you work for Aizen?" "Yeah and?" "You aren't planning anything are you…" "If I were you would never know." Ikkaku glared at him. Oichi frowned. "Please stop it Ikkaku…I would really like this night to be fun as always. No drama. No fighting. We are all friends here." "Yeah, we're friends but this dog is working for the enemy so I say…" Rangiku reached over and smacked Ikkaku's head. "OW! What are you doing!" Rangiku pats his head making him pissed. "Your ruining a fun time here baldly. Does it matter who he works for? He's here with Oichi so that makes him our friend to. So shut up and get over it." Ikkaku growls out before crossing his arm. "Whatever…"

Ichigo started passing out the cards. "Trust me Ikkaku, Grimmjow wont do anything as long as he is petted and feed." Grimmjow chuckled. "Got jokes berry." Ichigo smirked. "All night." Oichi picked up her cards. Grimmjow leans over. "So what is this called again?" "Phase 10. It's like a advance game of UNO. The goal is to finish all your phases before everyone else. You make pairs by going by this card here." She held up the card of phases. "Do all ten and you win!"

Grimmjow nodded. "Okay so…2 sets of 3?" "Okay so two sets means you pick these cards." She grabbed three number 2 cards and three number four cards and set them out. "That's the first phase. So we passed the first phase now we just have to get rid of all our cards. Once that's down the deck is reshuffle and we move on to the second phase." "Sounds simple…" Grimmjow says.

Minutes passed and the group was already in a heated battled of cards. Nel was in the lead with her phases with Ichigo behind her and Oichi behind him. Oichi sighs. She was on a run of seven but she didn't have the numbers she needed. Grimmjow was learning the game very well. Oichi showed him how he could take cards from the deck and how to hit the other players cards. In her hand Oichi had 1 through 6 all she was looking for was a seven. Grimmjow hit Ikkaku's card and grabbed the seven he had been eyeing on the deck. Oichi smiled and set out the rest of the cards. "Yay!" She giggled. Grimmjow smiled at her. Playing this game was intense but fun. It would have been deemed to bitchy if he brought this up at work but, it fits in this environment.

Momo was in the kitchen making snacks with Orihime and Tatsuki. "You think they are dating?" Tatsuki says. "Yeah I think so. She was blushing like crazy when I asked if she brought him as a date." Momo says. "When doesn't she blush though…Grimmjow might be here just to keep Renji away from her." Tatsuki says. Orihime nodded. "Yeah, she called me and told me what happened the other day." Tatsuki rolled her eyes. "Men…they never know how valuable something is until it's lost. He can't just go back up to Oichi and think she'd be okay after what happened. I don't think any person man or female can forgive so easily."

Momo looked down at the finger snacks she was making. "That is true…but Oichi would never hold all that hate and anger in her heart and even if she did I can tell that Grimmjow is helping her though it." They looked at her. "At the café she think we didn't notice but we see the dried tear marks even when she tries to hid it behind make up. When knew she went in the back and cried after Rukia leaves with Renji. Even when she tried to mask her sadness we could tell. I wonder if she noticed that she smiled less and less those passed days…" Momo smiles. "However, the month she's been with Grimmjow she smiles a lot more. The dried tear marks are barely there. She looks happy again. I think she and Grimmjow are dating and if they aren't then maybe we should help them." Orihime and Tatsuki smiled and nodded. "Yeah, Oichi deserves to be happy again."

The door bell rings. "Sounds like Kira is back with the drinks." Momo says. She walked out in the living room just in time to see the table groan in defeat. Nell had one the game. "Hell yeah! The queen at phase 10!" Momo laughed as she went to the front door. She opened. "Ah, Rukia and Renji! Welcome!" Rukia and Renji stepped in. Renji's belly was showing a bit now. She was wearing a maternity shirt with cute ruffles on the lining and black leggings and flats. Renji was wearing a white shirt with a blue jean vest and black jeans. "Yo. Sorry for being late." "No issues. Everyone is here. We are just waiting on the drinks. In the living room." She says. Renji nodded and grabbed Rukia's hand. They walked into the living and frowned. They saw Grimmjow and Oichi deep into their hand. Grimmjow was leaning over her looking at her cards. "Use these…" He said. Oichi nodded putting her cards out. Rukia sighs and looks away. Renji kept his eyes on Grimmjow. Ikkaku cleared his throat. Everyone looked up and turn to see Renji and Rukia standing there. "Oh…hey there…" Nel says frowning. She went back to the game. Oichi sighs mentally and looks back at her hand. Grimmjow paid them no mind. "Rukia come sit. You need to get off your feet." Ichigo says. Rukia nodded. "Yeah. Thanks…" Rukia and Renji took set near Yumichika. Renji was still looking at Grimmjow and Oichi.

"Hold the hell up Nel…you can't do that." Grimmjow says. Nel looked up. "Do what?" "You can't draw when it isn't even your turn!" "Says who!?" "The fucking rules! I've watched you do that twice!" They looked at her. "Ahhh! Nel your cheating!" Oichi says pouting. Nel shrugs. "You all be so into the game, I didn't think you would notice and you guys never did…thanks Grimmjow…" Grimmjow smirked. "Your welcome. I'd do anything to mess your flow up." Nel huffed out and placed her hand down. "Jerk…" Grimmjow chuckled as he threw Oichi's cards out. "Like I'll let you claim the title of queen. I think Oichi is more fitting for that." Oichi blushed a bit as she tried to ignore his words.

The door bell rings back and Momo goes back to the door. "Finally! Guys! The drinks are here!" Momo says. "Finally!" Ikkaku says throwing his hands in. "Now let's get this game night really started!"

Once everyone had their choice of drink Momo led them to the entertainment room. She had the xbox connect running with a dancing game on. A separate table next to the windows for the smokers and a place for them to play a game of cards. A bar Where Hisagi was stocking the rest of the drinks. A pool table, the doors that lead to back pond and a small terrace.

Oichi, Orihime, Momo, and Rangiku started up the dancing game. Nel, Grimmjow, Ichigo, Ikkaku, and Renji were at the card table. Rukia was sitting at the bar with Shuuhei. Yumichika, Tatsuki, Chad, and Uryu were at the pool table.

Grimmjow sighed as he took out a cigarette and lit it. Renji was sitting next to him, Ichigo on the other side, Nel in front and Ikkaku beside her. "Hey pass on over here why don't ya?" Ikkaku says. Grimmjow tossed on to him and a light. "Thanks. So what are we playing?" Momo walked over and set some poker chips down. "I think this is more your style Ikkaku." Ikkaku smirked. "Poker huh? I guess this will be fine. Don't cry when you guys lose." Ichigo rolled his eyes. "Says the man who can't play a single game of spades without re booking."

Oichi swiped going to a song going to mix. It played through a different mixture of songs. "Orihime you game?" Orihime nodded. "Yeah! This time I'll beat you." Oichi giggled as they got in spot and waited for the count down.

"So is Oichi and that security guy dating?" Uryu whispered to Tatsuki. She shrugs. "Don't know. Momo said that it was her date." "Maybe it hasn't reached that level yet. I think he's here to keep her away from Renji and Rukia." Tatsuki gets her shot ready. "Momo wants to play 'that' game to help get the tension and stuff off the air and maybe push them to that next level a bit." "Are you sure? That game brought out a lot of…secrets…about each other. It didn't go all that well for some of us." "That's why it's going to be the last game of the night. Once we get all this fun stuff out the way. Maybe this would be for the best…"

Grimmjow had his cards face down looking over at Oichi and Orihime dance. There were a bit neck and neck but Oichi was hitting each note with perfects and greats while Orihime were hitting the notes with greats, goods, and okay. Grimmjow eyes wonder down to Oichi's put. The sweater dress hugged her body tightly. 'Damn…she has a nice ass…' Renji frowned as he cleared his throat. "You plan on joining in the game?" Grimmjow looked at him. "I will once baldly over there decides if he wants to keep his hand or not." Renji looked over at Ikkaku who was glaring hard at his cards. "We should have played gold fish…" Ichigo says rolling his eyes. "Maybe that's a game for you…" "Shut up I'm think!" Ikkaku yelled. Nel places her cards down. We are going to be here forever!" Grimmjow chuckles as he looks back over to Oichi. He watched her movements. Just like at the club she let the music take over. 'She could be a great dancer…'

"Maybe you should keep your eyes on the game." Renji asked. Grimmjow sighs. "You got something to say to me?" Renji looked at him. "Just saying maybe focus more on the game." Grimmjow chuckled. "Now, why would I do that when I can enjoy Oichi dancing. She's cute when she's having fun and no worrying about shit heads like you." Grimmjow says blowing out smoke. "What was that?" "I don't mind repeating myself but, I wont ruin Oichi's night. Beside I'll make sure she wont have to deal with you or your side bitch tonight." Renji growled and got up, knocking the chair over. He tried to reach out for Grimmjow.

Grimmjow grabbed his arm, pulled him down on the table and pins it behind his back. Ichigo and Nel sighs. Ikkaku chuckles. "You got some moves." Rukia frowned and got up. "Renji!" Oichi and Orihime stops dancing. "Grimmjow what are you doing?" "He came at me so I just defended myself." Oichi walked over to him and pulled him off a Renji. "Grimmjow you promised you wouldn't." "Yeah, yeah. I know but, he came at me." Oichi pouted at him. "Alright, jeez…so maybe I said something to edge him on. My bad. I'll behave. Go enjoy your dancing."

Renji rubbed his arm. "Renji are you okay?" Rukia asked. "Yeah, don't worry about it. You didn't have to get up." Rukia frowned at Grimmjow. "Did you have to be so…" "Just leave it alone Rukia." Renji says. Rukia kept her frown at Grimmjow who ignored her. He sat back down. "So badly. You finish thinking yet?" Momo sighs. "Things are still so tense…"

She walked over to the stereo and turned it on. A loud techno beat started pulsing through the speakers through the room. "Oooh! Nice." Nel says bobbing her head. Shuuhei walked over to Oichi and handed her a drink. "It's a rum punch cocktail." Oichi sipped on it. "Mmmm. Your drinks are the best!" Shuuhei smiles and pats her head. "I got a lot of them so you can try them out tonight." "Sounds good! I can't wait." The cup was then taken from Oichi by Grimmjow. He sips on it. "It's super sweet…" Shuuhei looks at him. "Of course it is. Oichi does like really sweet things. It suits her personality. Don't you think?" Grimmjow narrowed his eyes at Shuuhei. "Um…can I have it back…" Grimmjow looked down to Oichi who was looking up at him. She pouted. "Get your own drink. He made it for me." Grimmjow chuckled. "Your so stingy about your drinks. It's cute." Oichi blushed and took her cup. "dummy…" She mumbled. She walked over to Orihime who was dancing with Nel and Momo.

---

The night went smoothly and the tense air started to disappear. After an hour of dancing, the group was sitting in on the couch laughing playing truth or dare, something Grimmjow found kind of stupid, at first.

Momo was looking around. "Okayy…Oichi!" "Yeah?" "Truth or dare?" "Ummm…dare?" Momo smirked. "Dare huh…I dare you to…tongue kiss Grimmjow." Oichi face turned red. "Say what!?" Grimmjow smirked. Momo smiled. "Come onnnn he's your date right? Give him a reward for coming all this way here with you." Grimmjow chuckled. "If you don't want to your gonna have to do a penalty." She pointed to the bar where Shuuhei was making a mystery drink. "Last time someone had it, that didn't end well haha." Momo says. "Mmm…Momo…" Momo smiled. "Come on! Do it!" Oichi looked at Grimmjow. "Need me to lead?" "N-No! I can do it…" Grimmjow laughed at her redden cheeks. She gets closer to him and leans up and then back off. "I…Can I t-take the d-drink…" She says holding her cheeks. Her heart was pound to fast so couldn't be so bold as to…

Grimmjow poked her cheek, making her look up. He then planted a kiss on her, forcing his tongue in her mouth. Oichi's mind went blank from the kiss until she pushed back into the kiss, forcing his tongue out and pushing hers in his. There tongue rubbed against each other making her moan just a bit. She then broke the kiss with a redden face in a dazed. Ichigo, Orihime, Rukia, and Uryu were blushing at that steamy kiss. Momo giggled at that. "Way to go Oichi! Though you had some help from Grimmjow. I'll let it go this time." Grimmjow licked his lips chuckling. "You're getting better." He mumbles. Oichi snapped out of her dazed. "S-Shut up…"

"Go ahead Oichi, it's on you." Oichi sighs as she calmed her heart down. "Okay…Orihime. Truth or Dare." Orihime hummed. "Truth." "Is it true that you and Ichigo are dating?" Orihime and Ichigo eyes widen and both of their faces turned red. "W-What?" Oichi smiled. "Well?" Orihime and Ichigo looked at each other. "Yes…" Orihime says looking down. Nel giggled. "Aw don't put your head down. It's cute that you guys are dating now." Orihime sighed. "I just didn't want anyone to be mad or upset." "Why would we do that?" Orihime looked at Oichi.

"Ah…I see." Oichi says. She smiles at them. "Thanks for thinking about me but I'm fine. Really. If you two are happy then I fully support you both." Orihime smiles. "Really!?" Oichi nodded. "Yeah, besides you to are kind crappy about hiding that fact." Ichigo raised his eyebrow. "You two keep looking at each other every second. Not that hard to put two and two together." Tatsuki says. Ichigo frowned. "If you say that then what about Grimmjow over here?" Grimmjow was drinking a beer. "What?" "You've been eyeing Oichi all night." Nel shrugs. "It's Grimmjow. Looking at a woman like a piece is like a thing for him." Grimmjow frowned. "I never looked at you like a piece of meat. It made me sick to my stomach when I tried." Nel frowned. "What was that you ass!" "Just speaking the truth…" "Oh so your saying I'm making you sick?" "Basically." "You piece of trash!" "Takes one to know one." Nel stood up but was quickly pulled back down by Uryu and Chad. Oichi rolled her eyes. "Anywaysss…why don't we move on. Orihime it's on you." Orihime rubbed her chin. "Mmmm…She looked at Nel who was glaring at Grimmjow and Oichi who was pulling on his ear. "Okay! Nel truth or dare!" "Dare." Nel says. Orihime smiles. "I dare you to make out with Oichi!" Everyone looked at her in shocked. "Say what?" Nel asked. "Was that not a good one?" Orihime said rubbing her head. "No, I think it was great!" Ikkaku says. "Come you two. Get to kissing!" Yumichika had his phone on record. Oichi blushed. "Why am I getting targeted!" Nel got up and smirked. "I will happy do this dare in front of you!" She says pointing at Grimmjow, who was frowning.

Usually he'd find it a turn for two girls to be kissing in front of him but, this is Nel…Knowing her she'd taking it to far.

Nel walked over to Oichi and pushed Grimmjow over. "Move over ass wipe. I get to have Oichi to myself right now." "Wait a second Nel! Why are you so excited about this!" "No use in backing down Oichi. Grimmjow doesn't even know all the things we done heehee." Grimmjow rasied his eyebrow. "What are you talking about!?" Nel licked her lips. "Let's show him that proper face of yours." "Nel wait!"

Nel pounced on Oichi. She kissed her deeply pushing their bodies close together. Grimmjow eyes were widen as he watched them make out. Yumichika was happily recording this. "Oh this will be a nice tease for later haha." Renji gulped at this. Nel stuck her tongue in Oichi's mouth making them both moan out. Their faces were flushed. Shuuhei mouth was open as he overpoured his drink. Nel's hand wrapped around Oichi's back pulling her closer. Grimmjow frowned. The more he watched Nel dominate Oichi the more pissed he got.

Nel pulled back from a flustered Oichi. She giggled. "Your so cute Oichi. Maybe we should become a couple. Then Grayson really will have two mom's." Oichi was breathing a bit hard. Nel chuckled and went for another round until Grimmjow grabbed her. "I think that's enough." Grimmjow says pulling her away from Oichi. He pushed her on top of Ichigo and Orihime. "Hey! I wasn't done." "Well you are now!" Grimmjow says pulling Oichi closer to him. "Oh? Are you jealous that I made Oichi feel great? Nel says sitting up. "How about you keep your hands off what's mine." Grimmjow says. "What's yours? It makes you sound like you and Oichi are together." "We are together." Grimmjow says.

Everyone was silent. Nel started to laughed. "Right. Like I'm gonna believe you and Oichi are dating. Yeah, you let her live with you but Oichi would never date a guy like you." "Hooo?" "If you knew Oichi as much as we all know Oichi you are so not her type. You're a flashy ass who likes to waste money on women and booze. You don't care about anyone but yourself and you treat every single person like a object. Oichi would never…"

Oichi, coming back out of her daze, shook her head. "Um…actually…" Nel looked at her. "Come on Oichi. Don't tell me you are actually considering it." Oichi twirled her fingers. "It's…true. We um…we're dating now." She says blushing. "Sorry...I was trying to find a better time to tell everyone..."

Momo pouted. "What!? Oh come on!" They looked at her. "Momo? You okay?" Momo crossed her arms. "Man…I was so going to try to get you to together after tonight. After this we were going to play strip poker and then we were going to play that game were I was going have Oichi strip down in front of Grimmjow!" Grimmjow smirked. "I like her. She's got some good ideas." Oichi was looking at Nel who was still processing this. "Are you serious? Are you really dating Grimmjow? Out of all people? Grimmjow!?" Oichi nodded. "Yeah. I know you wouldn't approve but…" Nel stood up. "It's time for a meeting!" She yelled. She grabbed Orihime and Oichi and headed upstairs to the room. Momo got up. "I want to come to please!" She and the other girls followed after her.

---

Grimmjow sighed as he picked up another beer. Ichigo and the others were looking at him. "If you have something to say, then fucking say it. Pisses me off when you all are just staring at me." Renji crossed his arms. Rukia had went upstairs as well. He wasn't sure if that was a good idea or not but right now there were something that need to be said.

Upstairs, Oichi was sitting cross legged on the bed while Nel was going off. "Are you serious Oichi!? Your dating that lump of coal down there! I told you what he does to woman and his lifestyle! I don't want you ended up like what happened with Renji!" Oichi sighs. "I know Nel…you've told me over and over again. I can't say this will be different but neither would any other relationship I go into. If I keep that thought in my head then I'd never be able to trust any relationship I get into." Nel crossed her arms. "Grimmjow is a man who only wants! He is going to use you and then dump you like nothing! He always do and always has!"

The door opened and Momo walked in. "I think they would make a wonderful couple. They are really cute together." She says walking. Rangiku, Tasaki, and Rukia walked in as well. Nel frowned even more. "Why are you up here?" Rukia looked down. "W-Well…It would have seem weird for me to be the only girl down there. Don't worry I'll stay out your way up here." She walks over and sits on the chair. Nel rolls her eyes. "Oichi, I'm telling you he is bad news. Next thing you know your gonna have a belly just like mine and then he dips on you."

Rangiku sits beside Oichi. "I don't know Nel. I say we let her go for it. I know your worried abut her but, this is Oichi's life and her choices." "I know that but look what it already did for her." She says glancing at Rukia. "Nel…" "I can't accept it Oichi. I just can't. That jerk ruin my life. I just don't want him ruining yours." Oichi smiled. "I know Nel but, I think he's changed a bit. I know very well about his lifestyle and not just from you. He has told me all the many things he's done. He told me how he somewhat retreated how it ended between you and him." Nel huffed out. "I'm sure he did. He didn't want anything to do with Grayson." "Yeah, but he's trying now. He's been spending more time with him and it shows that he does care."

Rangiku rolled her eyes. "Oh my gosh…Nel your so pathetic." Nel looked at her. "Say what?" "I see what this is about. This isn't just about Oichi hooking up with Grimmjow." "Oh? Then what is it about?" "This is either about you still having feelings over Grimmjow or your still so angry and stuck up that you can't even see how far Grimmjow is changing."

"I do not have any feelings for that man and I am not stuck up about him either. I just don't want Oichi walking down the same path I did with him." "How about you let Oichi be happy? She has heard all of your warnings and your useless down talking about Grimmjow and she is still willing to give him a shot. Just let it be and if he happens to do the same thing like Renji then we kick his ass. Plain and simple." Nel bit her lip. Oichi stood up. "Nel. Thank you for looking over me about this. You're a really go friend and unlike last time I am listening to you. I hear you loud and clear but, Grimmjow is trying to change. He doesn't do any of the things he's done before. He's even cut down on smoking. He hasn't even...we haven't really…had um…sex. He's still waiting for me to say it's okay…" Nel sighs. Momo walks up to Nel. "Come on Nel! Let's support this cute relationship! Look how happy Oichi is now. Don't you want her to be happy? Then look how protective Grimmjow got over her. Don't you want her to be protected. Then looks at that steamy kiss they had earlier. Don't you want her to be…" "Momo I think we get it." Oichi says.

Momo smiles. "Sorry. More so, I think Oichi should make her own choices. Grimmjow seems like a very nice person anyways. Let's see what happens okay?" She hugs Nel from behind. "What do you say." Nel looks at Oichi. "Fine. I'll support you and only you until I see that Grimmjow has 'changed'." Oichi smiled and hugged her. "Thank you!" Nel hugged her back. "I guess even some people can change but the moment he hurts you, I'll kill him." Oichi giggled. "I know."

Back downstairs, the guys were watching a game. Renji wanted to say something but, he thought it would be best not to upset the flow of the party. Oichi looked…happy…and he didn't want to add anymore stress to her weight load.

The girls came back downstairs. Oichi was smiling as she skipped to Grimmjow. She climbs over the couch and slides next to him. He places his arm around her. "So everything went well?" "Nope!" Oichi says just as Nel smacked Grimmjow in the back of the head. "What the fuck is your deal woman!" Grimmjow yelled, rubbing his head. Nel was glaring deadly at him, quickly shutting him up. "One time Grimmjow. I only need one phone call from Oichi, crying about something you did, I'll place your head on the platter and feed it to the pigs." Grimmjow felt a chill run down his spine at Nel's dark and deadly glare. Oichi smiles. "She doesn't approve but she's happy for me at least. Right Nel?" Nel smiled at Oichi. "As long as your happy. Don't care much about Grimmjow." She says jumping over the couch and sitting next to him. "Just give me a reason Grimmjow." She says smiling coldly.

The night went on and more drinks were passed out. The music was blasting to a techno mix song. Oichi was dancing by herself with a cup in her hand. Orihime and Ichigo were dancing next to a bar. Grimmjow was out back smoking with Ikkaku. Renji was in the kitchen with Rukia eating. Nel, Momo, Rangiku, and Tasaki was at the bar laughing up a drunken storm. Kira, Uryu, Yumichika, and Kira were playing pool once more. Shuuhei walked over to a happy Oichi who was humming and dancing with the rhythm.

He looked out the glass door where Grimmjow and Ikkaku were. They had their backs turned while smoking. Shuuhei grabbed Oichi's hand and spins her. "Mind if I cut in." He says smirking. He quickly switched her empty cup for a full one. Oichi giggled as they danced together. "I missed dancing with you Oichi." Shuuhei says. "Did you now? Last time we dance you couldn't keep up." She says sipping on her cup. Shuuhei chuckled. "I've been practicing." Oichi stuck her tongue out. "Is that right. Well, we will see now huh."

Momo spins around and claps her hands. "Yeah! A dance off! Dance! Dance! Dance!" She says pumping her fist in the air. Nel laughed. "I think you had to many Momo." "I have so! I'm just getting started!" She says with sparkles in her eyes. Nel laughed more as they watched Shuuhei and Oichi dance. Nel smirks as she eyes the back door. 'Let's see his reaction…'

Outside, Grimmjow blew out smoke. "For a guy who works with Aizen you aren't all that bad." Grimmjow glances at Ikkaku. "If I asked you what he was really planning, would you tell me?" Grimmjow looked out into the night sky. "Depends on how much you pay me." "You'd turn on your boss for some money? Where is your loyalty." "That company isn't run on loyalty like your precious divisions. We do what we do for money, power, authority, and fear. If you have neither one of them you can't climb ranks. If you can't climb ranks then they deem you useless and 'take care' of you." Grimmjow says. Ikkaku looks at him. "How many have you 'take care' of…" Grimmjow put his cigarette out and turned to look in the living room. He frowned when he saw Oichi and Shuuhei dancing together. He walked to the door. "…to many to keep count…" He mumbles as he goes back inside. Ikkaku narrowed his eyes slightly but, goes back to smoking.

Oichi had her eyes closed as she danced. Shuuhei looked at her up and down. She was so sexy when she was dancing. He reached out to place a hand on her hip but, was stopped when Grimmjow pulled her away from him. Oichi opens her eyes and found herself being twirled around. "HeeHee, are you going to dance with me now?" Grimmjow smiles. "Damn right." He shot a glare at Shuuhei who sighed and went back to the bar. The girls laughed at seeing Grimmjow being protective. Nel sighs. "Maybe the big lump has changed. I guess it would be so bad but to trust him just a little."

A month later, Friday morning of October, the weekend of Halloween. Nel, Oichi, and Grayson were out for breakfast. Oichi was in her uniform for work. She was on her way there until Rukia called and asked if they can switch shifts. Nel wanted to start taking about where to hold Grayson's birthday at. He was nine months now. His birthday was next month on November 17th. She wanted to take him to chucky cheese but when she learned that one of her ex's ran the place she went against it.

Oichi was in a slight daze as Nel talked. "I wanna do a bubble theme. He really likes bubbles lately. You should see how excited he gets when Orihime blows them. Isn't that right sweetie." Grayson was eating a soft muffin. "Yes! Blow!" Nel giggles and then looks at Oichi. "Oichi are you listening?" Oichi snapped out of her thoughts. "O-Oh sorry Nel. I was just thinking…" Nel sighs. "It can't be about him is it?" Oichi blushed a bit. "Well it is okay now since we are dating…" Nel grumbles something out about Grimmjow being a jerk.

Oichi giggles to herself then she looked back at Nel. "Um…can I ask you a personal question? About Grimmjow?" "Sure." Oichi blushed. "H-How good is he?" Nel hums. "In bed you mean?" Oichi nodded. Nel shakes her head. "I hate to say it but he is damn good in bed. I have yet to meet another man who can throw down like him. He can be like a wild animal and his stamina is amazing! I remember this one time before Grayson was learned of we went for hours. I passed out but when I woke up like an hour later he was still ready to go. Then he has another more…passive side to him." Nel rubbed her cheeks as her cheeks turned red. "It happened only once but, my gosh…it's so hard to even explain his movements. Its heavenly. Just thinking about it just makes me…" Nel shook her head and cleared her throat. "A-All I mean is that…well…crap…" Oichi laughed. "I see…so I have something to look forward to I guess."

Nel nodded. "Now about Grayson's party?" Oichi turned to him. "Hi!" Grayson says waving at one of the waiters. She giggled and waved at him. "Such a friendly baby." Oichi says. "I think a bubble theme is okay but there is always that risk of the soap getting in his eyes." Nel nodded. "True…well it be at my place so I'm sure it will be fine."

Oichi phone rings. "Hmm. Wonder who could be calling me." She smiles, looking at the phone. "Grimmjow." Nel frowned as she answered it. "Hey Grimmjow." "Hey, you still at breakfast?" "Yeah. Is there something wrong?" "No, I just wanted to see what you were doing." "Oh?" "Yeah, what time you going in for work?" "Well Rukia wanted to work my 9 to 5 shift so I'll be covering her 4 to 11 shift tonight." "Okay. I found this nice complex that might work for us. It's actually a new spot that's still developing more in a country part. I think you might like it. Wanna check it out before you go in?" "Sure! It sounds great Grimmjow." "Alright, let me know when your done and I'll come get you." "Okay we should be done in a few." "See you then." Oichi smiles as they hung up at the same time. "What did he want?" "He found a nice complex. He wants to show me before I go to work." Nel sits back. "Well wasn't that nice. Oichi nodded. "Yeah I know. I figured since we are going to be staying together it might be best to look for something a bit bigger for the both of us. Especially when little Grayson starts coming over. I bet he'd want his own room eventually." Nel smiles. "True but, I doubt he has any issues sleeping with you and kicking Grimmjow out the bed." Oichi giggles a bit as Nel went back to talking about Grayson's birthday.

---

About 20 minutes later Grimmjow picked Oichi up from her breakfast with Nel. Oichi waved bye to Nel and Grayson and got into the car. Grimmjow tapped his lips, motioning for a kiss. Oichi smiles and leans over to kiss him. She pulls back. "So what kind of place is this?" Grimmjow started to drive off. "I think being in the city is becoming too stressful. So maybe a peaceful county life might be best for us." Oichi nodded. "Okay. So where is it?" "You will see. Just relax and take in the view."

Oichi nodded and leans back in the seat. She watched as Grimmjow took her out the city and into the county side. They drove for about 20 more minutes before he pulled up to a sign that said, 'Welcome to Sun side Valley' He drove into the opening. Oichi sat up and looked at the house they started passing. They were a bit bigger than the normal house and they had huge yards. "Grimmjow?" "Do worry. I'm not showing you a house just yet. More like a condo. It's in the back." Oichi nodded as they drove down a curvy path. Oichi smiles looking at the view. It just said peaceful all over it. There was a small playground that children were playing on, the houses had nice spaces between them, and everyone, who was either out walking or talking, looked so friendly.

Grimmjow made a left and headed to another complex that said Windmill Valley Stream. He pulled up into the condo section. "Whoa…" Oichi says as he pulled into the fourth driveway. He parked the car and got out. Oichi got out as well. It was connected with four different ones. There were all light blue on the roof and white on the outside. Grimmjow took out some keys as he walked to the door. Oichi looked around. Across the street was the same Condos. There were some cars outside. "It kinda quiet out here." Grimmjow nodded. "Yeah this is one of the newer rebuilt condo sections. Unlike the others these have sound proof walls, already built in cameras, automatic door locks and so on. If we get settled in we can take care of all that but for now let's check it out yeah?" Oichi nodded. "Yeah!" Grimmjow opened the door.

They stepped in. "Wow!" The inside was empty other than the curtains and blinds. There was a kitchen to the right of them. It had a black interior with a nicely designed pattern floor. There was already a fridge, dishwasher, and deep freezer in there. Oichi walked in and opened the empty cabinets. She frowned. "Grimmjow? I think the shelves are broken." Grimmjow walked in and saw the shelves all tilted. "Hmmm…" He reached over her and moved it slightly. "It's an easy fix I can do. I'll make sure to fix it up if we pick this one." Oichi nodded and went on looking at the condo. She went in the room next to the door on the left. It was bare and had black carpet. "Hmm…this could be a guest room. A bed, dresser, and tv could go in here." She walked out into the living room section. "Really roomy. I could set it up nice in here. She walked into the bathroom area and looked around. "Kinda small but it will do nicely. I don't mind. I can do something nice with this."

There was a small room next to the bathroom. She opened it and looked around. "Another bedroom maybe? I can use this as a study or something…" Oichi says. There was a set of stairs in the living room next to the wall. Oichi and Grimmjow walked up them and came to another section. It had an open space and another room that lead to the masters. Oichi walked in. "Hey, there is already a bed in here…I wonder if someone forgot to get the rest of their things." It was a Queen size bed with a black and blue blanket, with two pillows on it. Grimmjow walked in behind her. "The hell…I was told this already gone…I'll have to contact the person who had this before. If they don't want it we can throw it away." Oichi walked up to the bed and sat on it. "It's really soft…" "Yeah but do you really want a bed that someone already slept on?" Oichi nodded. "That's true…it would be such a shame if they want to throw it away." "Yeah but it can't be helped."

Oichi got up and walked to the bathroom. It was clear but the bathroom was a bit dirty. The tub had black rings around it and the sink had toothpaste in it. "Looks like they didn't do much cleaning…" Oichi says looking at the floor. She raised her food. It was sticky. "Ew…" Grimmjow peaked his head in. "I'm gonna have to have a talk with my buddy…he told me this house would be clean to top to bottom…" Oichi sighs and opens the closet that was in the bathroom. It was a walk in. "At least this is clean and it has some space to it. I like it." Oichi says walking in. Grimmjow sighs. "I'm sorry Oichi. I would have rather you come into a clean house. Oichi looks at him and smiles. "It's okay Grimmjow. All in all I like the house. How much is the rent?" Grimmjow placed his hand in his pocket. "You don't really have to worry about the rent." "Why?" "I'll pay the rent for you." Oichi frowned. "I can't have you doing that. I can at least help with that." Grimmjow walks out. "If this is going to be our place we should spilt things so we both don't be over spending." Oichi says following.

"You think I can't take care of you?" Grimmjow says. "I'm not saying that, but it wouldn't be far to you if I let you pay for everything. We can go half on the bills." Grimmjow sighs. "Man, you're a weird chick. Any other girl wouldn't have mind if I paid for everything." Oichi frowned and crossed her arms. "Well I'm not any other girl! The last thing I want is for you to do everything yourself. Even if your well enough capable of doing it yourself." Grimmjow chuckled. "Your independence is such a fucking turn on." He grabs her wrist and tosses her on the bed. "Say what!? Grimmjow what are you-"

He leans down places a kiss on her lips. Oichi's heart skipped a beat she felt something spark inside her. He pushes his tongue in her mouth. She moans as his tongue dances with hers in her mouth.

Grimmjow pulls away leaving a thin strand of saliva connecting their tongues. Oichi was panting, wanting more. Losing control of herself just a bit she grabs his shirt and pulls him back down and kisses him. Grimmjow smirks into the kiss and licks her lips asking for re-entrance. Oichi gave it to him. Their tongues danced around with each other more roughly, earning a moan from Oichi. Grimmjow ran his hand down to her uniform shirt and pulled it up over her bra. She was wearing a paw pattern bra that unclipped from the front. He unclipped it and moved the kiss down to her neck. Oichi breathes out as his hands grabbed her breast. He squeezed them making her body jolt. "Your breast are really sensitive and so soft…" He rubbed her nipples quickly making them hard. Oichi's face was getting flustered. She placed her hands on his hands while he starts kissing the spot under her neck. "Ah…oh n-not there…" She moans out.

Grimmjow takes his knee and spreads her legs out further. He presses his lower half against her. "Oichi…" He mumbles, taking the kiss back to her lips. They pull away from the kiss. Grimmjow places a hand beside her head to hold him up. His other hand rest on her breast with her hand over his. He looked at her heated face before moving to her breast and down to her stomach. Her skin was so smooth and he wanted to touch more. "G-Grimmjow…" He looked back up to her. He felt her legs shiver a bit. "C-Can we…um…I…I want…" "What do you want?" Grimmjow asked. Lust started to fill his eyes. His heart started beating fast. He waited on her to say what he had wanted to hear. Oichi bit her lip and gulped, settling on her answer. "I want…y-y-you…" Oichi says. Her own heart was beating out of her chest as she finally gives into her lust that had been building for months.

Grimmjow slammed a hot and fiery kiss on her. Oichi moans out and then hears him un buckling his belt. His hand reached under her skirt and grabs her panties, pulling them down and off her legs. He then pushes her legs up so that he can get on the bed. Oichi sighs out as she felt his fingers enter her first. He pushed his fingers in as deep as they could go, to his bare knuckles. He thrusts them in fast and hard. He leans up to unbuckle and unzip his pants with his free hand. Oichi pushed against his fingers. "Mmm…haa…" Grimmjow's face was a bit flustered while watching her. It wasn't the first time they had done this and her moans were still cute as ever. He pulls out his harden member and rubs it. "You want me Oichi?" Oichi looks at him and nods. "Say it. Tell me you want me." "I…I want you Grimmjow."

Grimmjow removes his wet fingers and spreads her legs. "Your so wet for me…so sexy…" He places himself at her entrance. Oichi whimpers a bit. Grimmjow places his forehead on hers. "I'm going in slow…" He says. Oichi nods. Grimmjow push the tip of his member in her. Oichi gasp a bit. Even if it's just the tip he was big…thick… She spreads her legs a bit more and clings to his shirt. "Oichi…" Just as he started pushing the rest of himself inside her, his phone in his back pocket goes off. He frowns and reaches for it. He answers. "What!?" He growled out.

"Oh my…is that anyway to talk to your boss Grimmjow…" Grimmjow frowns and sighs. "What is it? I'm busy." "Oh yes, I figured you were but, I need you to come in now. We need to have a conversation." Grimmjow looks down at Oichi who was looking needly at him. "Can't this wait!?" "No, it can't. This is about your job performance so I suggest you end your time with Ms. Yamamoto unless you want her to learn about the things you really do." Grimmjow eyes widen. "You wouldn't…" "Oh Grimmjow, you should know I would never do anything unless I have to. You can spend time with Ms. Yamamoto at a later date or if you like you can spend time with her unemployed. It's your choice." He hangs up. Grimmjow sighs out. "Dammit…"

"Grimmjow?" Grimmjow pulls back. "Sorry babe. I have to go see what my ass of a boss want." Oichi sits up. "Are you in trouble?" "No, he just wants to see me. I haven't been really doing my standard duties. So, he'll most likely chew me out." He fixes his pants and then picks her panties up. "Man, and just when you finally said you wanted me. He has some crappy timing."

Once Oichi was clothed back up they went downstairs. "You like this place?" Oichi nodded. "Yeah." "Well we can still look up some more before we make up our minds. I also want you to start looking into getting a car. I don't mind taking you here and there but, it's just in case I can't make it somedays." "I know. I've been looking at some." Oichi says a bit down. They walked out the condo. Grimmjow locked the door and headed to the car. Oichi was already in, waiting. She was still a bit excited and couldn't calm down. Grimmjow drove off to go take her back to the apartment.

Oichi stared out the window lost in her own lusty thoughts. She imaged Grimmjow pushing himself fully inside her giving her instant pleasure. She rubs her legs together while thinking of him thrusting himself in her over and over each time taking her to her limit. Pushing her closer and closer to her climax. A tingling sensation overcame her body making her hold in a moan.

Grimmjow reaches his apartment. "I'll pick you up tonight after your shift." Oichi nods as she got out. Grimmjow watches her walk in and chuckles. Watching her struggle like this was too cute to put into words. Watching her crumble in her lust for him was all to enjoyable. He loved watching her lust grow for him until she lost control. He licked his lips as he tried to calm himself down. He wanted to walk right after her and finish what they started but, if he did that neither of them might not make it to work.

---

Grimmjow soon arrived at work. Aizen was waiting in his office for him. "You think he will come?" Gin says. Aizen nodded. "Of course, he will. He doesn't have much of a choice, now does he." There was a knock at the door. "You can enter." Aizen says. Grimmjow opened the door with an annoyed look on his face. "Ah, you made it. I hope Ms. Yamamoto isn't too sad to see you leave." Grimmjow said nothing as he walked up to his desk.

"I've been looking at your reports within the last few months and it has come to my attention that you aren't doing most of your orders anymore. Why is that?" "I don't know what I'm delivering." "Since when has that even been a problem for you?" "I haven't delivered anything that I don't have information on. How can I make sure to be fully prepared if something happens? If you tell me whatever I'm gathering or shipping is important I need to know how important so that I can make the right preparations. That's how I always worked." Aizen leans on his desk. "Is that right? Are you sure about that? Are you sure it's not because of Ms. Yamamoto? The woman you have been seeing?" Grimmjow narrowed his eyes. "What I do has nothing to do with her." "Just admit it Grimmjow. You don't want to bring trouble back to you after last time? I mean your family at the time was almost placed in danger because you screwed around with the wrong people. I wonder if Nel knows that." Gin says.

Grimmjow grits his teeth. "Is that a main reason of why you called me in?" Grimmjow says containing his anger. "Yes, there is." Aizen picked up a folder and placed it on his desk. "This is a new shipment coming out. I want it first before those people get their hands on it. In fact, after this job it can be your last shipment job for a while. We may not be getting anymore shipments since the coast guards are being strict. I'd rather not risk our supplies while they are out and about. So, do this last job for me and you will be done." Grimmjow narrowed his eyes and walked up to the desk. He grabbed the folder and looked through it. He frowned. "What am I…" "None of your concern." "Then I'm not…" "You will do it. Or you can walk out that door and not come back. I know you like the pay rate here and I'm sure you want to look wealthy in front of your new playmate. I'd suggest you just take this job and get it over with." Grimmjow sighed. "Fine…whatever but, I'm done with this shipping job after this. You can give it to someone else who doesn't mind doing your dirty work." He turns around and leaves, slamming the door shut.

"Such a quick temper." Gin says. Aizen chuckled as a side door opened. Someone walked out and stood next to his desk." "Everything is in place. Make sure you do your part. We do have to keep our word for our trusted employees. If he wishes this to be his last job then so be it."

On Halloween, the café and restaurant was packed down. The waiters and waitress were all dressed up in different, workable, costumes. Oichi was dressed as a fox with the ears and tail and a bit of make up on her face. Rukia came in with her regular clothes. She was about five, going into six, months. She and Renji learned that they were having a girl.

The café was decorated in typical Halloween fashion. Paper ghost, Vampires fangs, pumpkins patches, and so on were hanging up and painted on the walls and ceilings. Oichi didn't expect to get much customers but, for some reason they were packed down tonight.

Oichi was in and out of the kitchen with trays and orders. "Hey someone needs to get to table 5 and take their order please!" She called out. "Sorry for the wait. Here are your orders." Oichi says placing the trays down and setting out your order. "Please enjoy. I'll come back to check on you a bit." She walked to her other day. "I still don't see anyone at table number 5!" She yelled out. "S-Sorry!" A worker says. "Thank you!" Oichi calls out.

Downstairs was equally busy but it wasn't going so smoothly in care. Rukia was carrying a tray. "Excuse me, we have been waiting for nearly an hour and no one has come to take our order." A man says. "I'm sorry sir, I'll be with you in a moment." "Hey you told us to wait and we are still waiting!" A couple yells out. "We've been sitting here waiting for our drinks! Can you please hurry up?" Rukia sighs. "Can someone please get table 8 and 11?" No one answers. The workers down with her were busy with their own tables. "Are you the manager?" An older lady asks. "Y-Yes ma'am I am." "Well I just like to say you are doing a terrible job down here. People have been waiting for hours for their food and your workers aren't caring at all? I have been coming here since this place was small and I have never been kept waiting for this long no matter how busy it got. Please tell me you're not the main manager? Is there someone else higher? I have the mind seat of not coming back here with this poor service." "No ma'am, I'm not the store manager. She's upstairs running the café." "Then can you get her please? Maybe we can have some proper service down here." Rukia bit her lip but nodded. "Yes ma'am. One moment."

Rukia sighed mentally as she rubbed her stomach. She walked up stairs to the café. "Oichi?" "Hey, you're in the way Rukia." A worker zoomed by with two trays. "Sorry, do you know where Oichi is?" "She's in the back by the windows." The worker called out. Rukia walked through the café. She watched as each table got service. The workers were taking two to three tables each. Unlike how the workers were down stairs. "Hey, I need someone to take care of table 13 and 25. They shouldn't be waiting to long for drinks." Oichi called out as she took the orders for her table.

"My Oichi, you are sure keeping the pace up and you look cute doing it." Oichi smiled. "Thank you. Now is there anything else…" "Yeah, can we get the Halloween special please?" Oichi nodded. "Two Halloween specials coming right up. Should take about 15 minutes." "Oichi?" Oichi turned around to see Rukia. "Rukia? Is there something you need?" Oichi says. "Um…I need your help downstairs. The employees aren't listening, people are complaining, and they are leaving, not wanting to come back." Oichi frowns. "I see…well here." She handed Rukia her notepad. "Everything is going smooth here. All you have to do is take their orders. We got two cooks in the back and everyone has their tables. I be back in a bit to check on everything so don't push yourself tonight." Rukia nodded.

Oichi walked out the café area and headed downstairs and looked around. Some of the workers were goofing around and not paying attention. Oichi grit her teeth as she watched her customers getting upset and gathering their things to leave. Oichi walked downstairs. "Hey! What is going on here?" She yelled out. The workers quickly froze in one spot. "Why are you not doing your jobs!? You don't get paid to stand around doing nothing! Get to work now!" She says. The workers quickly got up and started fast pacing their jobs. Oichi huffed out as she grabbed another note pad. She went to the tablet that Rukia was attending to.

"I'm very sorry about how rude the employees have been. I will make sure to give you a discount on your meal." The older lady smiled. "Thank you dear. I was starting to worry. I had heard much things about this place but that other young lady she had no control over these workers. I didn't mean to be so rude to her specially when she is with child but…" "No worries ma'am. I understand. Have you order yet?" The older lady shook her head. "No but I know what I want. I'd like the lobster cub and the side order of fresh lemon pie. One slice please." Oichi wrote it down. "Yes, ma'am I'll be back in a moment. I don't see anyone on table 6! Please get a move on our customers have been waiting long enough!"

As Oichi got the downstairs back in order Rukia was going back and forth to table to table taking orders. "Rukia? Where does this order go?" A worker says. "Um…I gave you the order." "Yes, you did but you didn't put the table number on it." "Oh…I'm sorry. It might go to the table at the…" "Hey boss lady, these two orders are mixed up. The table you sent me to said they…oh! Hey, take that to table 17." "Alright thanks." The worker frowned at Rukia. "Listen boss lady. When you take the orders at least place the table number on the ticket so we will know where to take it. I know you haven't been working up here but please do not slow us down with these beginner mistakes." The worker walked off leaving a frowning Rukia.

Back downstairs Oichi was frowning at the tickets. There were no numbers on it. "What the hell…? How does Rukia know where the orders go?" "Well to be honest we aren't this busy on some days so we never really needed to number the tickets. Plus, the people we get order small things so we can easily remember them but, for some reason we are getting all these fancy people ordering the most on the menu. Sorry Oichi…" Oichi sighs. "It's not anyone's fault but mine. We've been up and running for months and this is really the first time I've worked down here. Rukia seemed to have everything under control…I see some things are going to have to change…"

---

Grimmjow was frowning. Gin was in his office going on about the shipment he was getting and delivering now. "You want me to bring in shit I don't know about?" Gin nodded. Grimmjow looked through the files he was giving. "I'm not doing it. I was told to just gather the stuff at the meeting spot and leave it to whoever is going to be transporting it." He says. Gin chuckle. "You are saying that like you have a choice." Grimmjow sighed. "Look, I'd done a lot of crap in this company. The only thing I ask is that I know what the hell I'm transferring in. I don't care if it's illegal but I do have the right to know how illegal it is!" Gin walked around. "Why Grimmjow. Didn't' we have this type of conversation already? You have been very…defiant lately. You aren't taking as many deliveries like we asked and sure we let you have your way sometimes but, don't you think your pushing your luck?" Grimmjow rolled his eyes. Gin turns around to leave. "Remember this Grimmjow. We gave you this job and we can easily take it away. You all can be easily replaceable." Grimmjow narrowed his eyes at him as he left. Grimmjow looked down at the files and frowned. It's true. He has been turning down jobs left and right if they were going to pose a threat to his life. More so it wouldn't be the first time that a job had back fired and he brought trouble home. It nearly almost cost his son his own life. He couldn't let that happen again.

Now with Oichi staying with him he didn't want that trouble and he didn't want her getting caught up in his mistakes. He tosses the papers on his desk. He bit his lip. What Gin says was true. He wasn't in a good spot before he got this job. His lifestyle before this was the whole reason he got this job. He didn't mind getting his hands dirty as long as he got paid. He placed his elbows on the table and placed his face in his hands. A picture of Oichi's smiling face pops in his head. Maybe it was time to give this job up.

---

Eight o'clock came around the café was still busy. Kira, Momo, Luppi, and Lily were all called in. Between Rukia getting orders mixed up and Oichi being confused on how Rukia kept anything organized in the restaurant it was becoming a complete chaos. Oichi had to keep running back and forth from downstairs and upstairs until the other managers were called in. Kira and Lily were upstairs helping Rukia and Luppi and Momo were downstairs helping Oichi. "Why the hell is it so busy today?" Momo ask taking a tray to a table. "I heard one of the restaurants were shut down a few days ago. There are a lot of fancy people here. They are also ordering the most expensive things on the menus. The cooks are having a hard time to." Luppi says. "If you two can handle things here I can go help in the kitchen." Oichi says. Momo and Luppi nodded. "Yeah we got this." Oichi nodded. "Nel should be coming in soon so have her help out if the bar and entertainment room isn't busy."

Oichi walked to the back and grabbed and apron. The cooks were indeed having a hard time keeping up with the orders. "Hey, I'll lend a hand. Where are you at?" The two workers smiled. "Thanks boss lady." Oichi smiles. "Let's get to work." Oichi took an opened burner and turned them on. Momo brought two orders. "Alright Oichi, time to get cooking. Two Halloween specials." Oichi nodded. "Yeah."

Upstairs Rukia was sitting down. She was asked to stay off her feet. Kira said it was because he was worried about her and the baby but, she felt like she was just asked nicely to stay out of the way. She rubbed her stomach.

---

Grimmjow came around ten when things were finally settling down. The workers looked winded and the cooks were dead tired. Some had changed out of their costumes and were back on their regular clothes. Some were at the bar with their head down. "What the hell happened here?" Nel sigh. "It was a total chaos in here. It looks like one of those 4-star restaurants got shut down and they got a wind of this place and came heading down. The place has been packed since this morning. We couldn't even get out own Halloween game plan started." Grimmjow sighs. "Where is Oichi and Grayson?" "Upstairs. She's been down here all day and she's taken care of Rukia's mistakes." Grimmjow raised his eyebrow. "Mistakes?" "Yeah, she's giving the costumers discounts and credits. Rukia had been giving our wrong orders and pricing up the wrong things and so on…I think she's angry but you know how she can be." Grimmjow nods and heads upstairs.

"I don't care what you think you are giving me the meal should be for fucking free!" A man yelled. Oichi smiled. "I'm sorry sir but you didn't have any complaints about the meal." "The meal was fine but I had to get it remade three times because your stupid workers don't know how to take orders!" He says pointing at Rukia. "Sir, I'm giving you a discount and a credit for your future order. It's the best I can do. Your food was remade yes but in all three times you ate all of your food. Normally I would have you thrown out for that but tonight has been long for all of us." The man growled and reached out for Oichi. He grabbed her by the collar of her uniform. "Listen you bitch. Didn't you hear what I just said? I should get the meal for free!" "I'm afraid you aren't listening. I gave you all that I could give." The man grit his teeth until Grimmjow grabbed his arm.

"Grimmjow…" Oichi smiles at him. "Who the fuck do you think your grabbing?" Grimmjow says glaring at the man. He squeezes the man arm. "OW!" He let go of Oichi. Grimmjow twisted his arm slightly. "She already gave you what you needed so get out of here before I toss your ass out that window." He pushed the man away from him. The man frowned at Grimmjow but quickly took his leave. Oichi straighten out her uniform. "You know…I don't know why I bother being so nice sometimes." She says. "I like the way you stand your ground. I can teach you some defensive moves. To protect yourself better." Oichi pushes her hair behind her. "Well when I learn to protect myself then you might stop protecting me…I might not like that." Oichi says blushing a bit.

Grimmjow smirks and reaches up to rub her cheek. "I'll always be here to protect you, so don't worry about that." Oichi smiles sweetly at him until she realized that there were more customers waiting on her. They were smiling at the two. Oichi cleared her throat and pushed his hand away. "I um…need to get this done." Grimmjow chuckled before her pulled her close and planted a quick kiss on her lips. The customers gasped as this as Grimmjow pulls away. "Don't keep me waiting to long." He leaves to go sit at the booth. Oichi was quickly ambushed by questions. "Are you two dating now?" "It's about time! You two have been fliting back and forth for a while!" "Congratulations Oichi! I knew you would bounce right back!" Oichi started to blush like crazy.

Once everything was cleaned up in the café area, Oichi went over to Grimmjow who was frowning. There was an untouched cup of tea and a half-eaten cate sitting in front of him. "Someone already served you?" Grimmjow pushed the food away. "Yeah, Rukia…the tea taste funny and the cake taste like mud. I want your food." Oichi smiles. "What would you like then?" "Crab cakes and some actual tea that doesn't taste like sweat." "It couldn't be that bad Grimmjow." She picked the cup up and took a sip. "Mmm…I um…" She cleared her throat. "Uh huh. That's what I thought." "Oh Shut up…" She says taking the food in the back. Moments later she came back out with a small tray and a sleepy Grayson. "Looks like someone woke up. Grayson yawned, rubbing his eyes. Oichi placed Grimmjow's food down in front of him. "Mmm.." Oichi smiles. "You hungry to?" She sits him in front of Grimmjow's food. "Don't even think about it." Oichi giggles. "He can't eat it. Besides I already got his food ready. You just have to feed him." She sat a cup down. "It has homemade fruit juice in it." She handed Grayson the cup. He took it and started drinking it. He leans back on her drinking. "Come on. Go to daddy. I got work to do."

Grimmjow grabs him and sits him on his lap. "How long will it take you to clean up?" "Not long. Just got to count the sales up here and that should be it." Grimmjow nodded.

Oichi reached over and ruffled Grayson hair. He relaxes back on Grimmjow. "So cute." Grimmjow pouted ever so slightly. He wanted her to ruffle his hair to. Grayson always seem so relaxed when she did it.

Oichi walks over to the cash register and starts counting the money. Rukia walks out of the kitchen and sees Grimmjow eating different food. "I guess it wasn't good huh." Grimmjow looked up at her. "Taste like shit." "Grimmjow…" Grimmjow glanced over at Oichi. "Not while Grayson is around. Please." He rolls his eyes. "Sure. Whatever." Rukia rubbed her stomach. "I've been trying to learn how to cook but nothing is coming out right." "Then maybe you should give up." Grimmjow says coldly. Rukia frowned. "If you got something to say then say it." Grimmjow says sipping on his tea. Rukia turned her head and walked away. "I clocked out. I'm heading home." "Alright…" Oichi says.

Rukia walked around the counter and looked at Grayson who was almost done with his juice. "Um…do you mind if I hold him?" "Yeah I do actually. Nel will kill me if I let you anywhere near him." Rukia frowned. "What's wrong with me wanting to hold him?" "Why don't you wait a few more months to hold your own damn child! Now get the hell out of my face." Grimmjow says. Rukia bit her lip and tears up. "Why are all of you being this way to me. What have I done wrong to be treated like this?" Grimmjow stops eating. "Well let's see…" "Grimmjow don't. Please." Oichi says. Grimmjow shrugs. "Whatever you say." Rukia looked at Oichi. "Why don't you just say what's on your chest Oichi? Why don't you say how much you hate me! I did nothing wrong to you! I told Renji to leave you so he wouldn't hurt you like this! I wanted him to end it before it went to far. I didn't even know he took your money! I didn't even want the house! I told him that we didn't need it and yet he went on saying how he needed to provide for me and our child! I'm sorry Oichi! Is that what you want to hear!? I'm sorry!" Rukia cried out.

Oichi sighs. "Rukia your hormones must be acting up. Why don't you go downstairs and call Renji to come get you?" Oichi takes the money she counted, placed it in a bag, and took it in her office to put in a safe. Rukia sniffs as she wipes her eyes. "I'm sorry…I really am…" She mumbles before leaving. Grimmjow rolled his eyes. "No amount of sorry is going to change anything. Hope you learn that soon. Now get going." Rukia frowns at him before going on.

Once she was gone Grimmjow sighs and gets up. Grayson was half sleep on him. Grimmjow walked around the booth and headed it to the back office. This is something he had done a few times before. He opened the door to Oichi's office to see her standing at the safe. Tears were rolling down her cheeks. Grimmjow went over and lays Grayson down in the play pen she had sat up for him. He then walked over to Oichi and wrapped his arms around her. "You're hurting yourself to much over that. I've told you that already." Oichi sniffs, rubbing her eyes. "I can't help it. I'm trying to get over it but, every time I see her I get so angry and frustrated." "I know." He tightens his grip around her. "I want to forgive her I really do but I just can't. I can't do it." She says crying.

Grimmjow turned her around. "Oichi…" He lifted her chin up to him. "No one is going to blame you for the way you're feeling. You got friends who got your back. People to lean on. Like me. When you want to cry, don't cry by yourself. Come to me and I'll hold you just like this. If you want to lash out in angry and frustration then take it out on me. I can take it if it makes you feel better later on." He then smirks. "If you also feel pent up you know you can come to me for that as well." He rubs the tears out her eyes. "You're an idiot…" Oichi says. Grimmjow chuckled and brought her close to hug her. Oichi wrapped her arms around him. He was so warm and his scent was overwhelming. It smooths her to be wrapped around in such a tight embrace. "Grimmjow…" She mumbled as she nuzzled her face in his chest. Grimmjow smiles and rubs her head. "Your with me now babe. You don't have to worry about things like that anymore. Just focus on us now."

Oichi's heart started to race a bit. She looked up at Grimmjow still with tears in the corner of her eyes. "Grimmjow…" Grimmjow looked down at her, into her red eyes. They wanted something. His eyes widen slightly as she pushes against him. She leans up to him. "Oichi…" He leans down. Their lips meet softly. Oichi sighs as she pulls back slightly. Her face was heating up and her heart was raging out of control. She didn't know if it was because she was full of emotions and just needed something or someone to cling on. Like it was telling her it was time to move on and head to the path in front of her. If Renji could do it. She could to right?

She bit her lip and kissed Grimmjow once more. Grimmjow was taken back by this but quickly followed the pace. The kiss was hot. Their tongues danced with each other. Grimmjow's hand ran down her back and down to her butt, grabbing it. Oichi let out a moan as she pushes against him. She was then picked up and placed on her office desk. Grimmjow pulled back from the kiss but started to kiss down her neck. He grinds his lower half against her. His hands moved down from her hips, to her thighs, and back up to go under her skirt. Oichi leans her head back as Grimmjow kisses it. She moans out a little more, shivering as she felt his fingers getting closer. She opens her legs a bit more making him smirk. "You're getting bold Oichi. I won't be able to stop myself if we keep going." Oichi breathes out. Her body was on fire just from him touching her. She glances over to where Grayson was. He was sitting up still half sleep. He was rubbing his eyes getting a bit fussy. "Ma…" He mumbles. "Looks like we are out of play time for now." Grimmjow says. He kisses her cheek. "As always your moans were really sexy." Oichi's flustered face looked away from him. "S-Sorry…"

"Nothing to be sorry about." He kisses her. "If you want we can finish this at the house?" He kisses her again. "I've been wanting you for the longest. Just like at the condo. I want you to tell me that you want me again." Again, he kisses her. "Can I have you? Oichi?" He kisses her once more. Oichi nods. "Y-Yes…" Grimmjow smiles and kisses her deeply.

He then pulled away. "I can't wait…" He whispers in his ear. He backed up heading to get Grayson who was standing up now. Oichi felt her heart fluttering. She was starting to be overcome with both emotion and passion.

"Ready?" Oichi looks up to see Grimmjow holding Grayson out in front of her. She takes him. "Yeah…" Grimmjow grabs the baby bag and her bag. "Then let's go." Oichi nodded and followed him out. Her heart still pounding.

Heading downstairs they could hear Nel yelling. "No one has done anything to your little girlfriend Renji! Now get the hell out already." "Oh you expect me to believe that when she's sitting here crying!?" The customers downstairs were staring while they ate. Oichi sighs. "What is going on?" They looked at Oichi. "Oichi! Why the hell is Rukia in tears?" "Renji I don't know. Maybe it's her hormones. Everyone had a rough day and she's probably reliving all that stress now. Pregnant women can be like that." Renji frowned. "Well aren't you the head boss here? You need to make her more comfortable so she can work!" "First off, don't come in here throwing a fit in my work place. Secondly, before you come jumping at everyone's throats did you even ask Rukia why she was crying!? That is a pet peeve of yours. You never actually ask what's wrong before you jump the gun." Renji said nothing. "Yeah, that's what I thought. Now please get out so the customers can finish eating peacefully." "I'm not leaving until…" Grimmjow stood in front of Oichi. "She asked you to leave. If you won't do it her way then I'll gladly do it my way. So, what's it going to be?" Renji grips his fist. "Fine, but we aren't finish with this." He walked outside. Oichi shook her head. She looked at the customers. "I'm really sorry about that everyone. Please enjoy your meal and night." "Oh, before I forget…" She walked over to the bar and grabbed a piece of paper. She wrote something on it and pins it on the new back board. "Everyone, I'm calling a meeting next week after work hours. Everyone, including shift managers, need to be here. Tonight was quite embarrassing and I do not want a repeat of this. So please try to be here." They nodded at her. "Well then. Have a good night."

Oichi and Grimmjow headed outside where Renji was talking to Rukia. "Renji, I'm tired. Today was stressful and messed up so much. I felt like a bother to everyone…" She says sniffing. "So, no one said anything to you?" "No…I just felt so useless…" Renji sighs and looks over at Oichi. Grimmjow placed an arm around her waist. "Come on let's go." He led Oichi way from Renji. Rukia grabbed Renji's arm. "Renji can we go home please?" Renji watched as Grimmjow led Oichi away. He frowned at the sight of his arm around her waist. "Renji?" Renji looks down. "Yeah…let's go."

---

The next morning Oichi had the day off. She was sleeping soundly with Grayson next to her. Grimmjow was up in the kitchen looking at the shipment. He was still having major doubts about this job but he couldn't tell Aizen no again. He knew he was on thin ice and with a snap of his fingers Aizen can take everything away from him without a second thought. They were all replaceable in his little sick game to take over this city. He looked over at the bedroom door. It was open. He could see Oichi and Grayson sleeping peacefully. He didn't want to put them in danger. He frowned. 'So this night has got to be the most sounded one I have ever done. No fuck ups. No setbacks. No bringing trouble here.' He picked up the phone and dialed a number. He waited as it rung three times before someone picked up. "Grimmjow sir…everything is in place for tonight." "Make sure you double check everything. Nothing can go wrong tonight. Make sure everything is in place including the back up plans in case something does go wrong." "We understand sir." Grimmjow hung up.

"I can't let this get out of hand." "Grimmjow?" Grimmjow turned to see Oichi walking out the room. He chuckled at her insane bed head. "Good morning." Oichi pats her head down. "Good morning…" She was wearing one of his long sleeve shirts. She walked over to him. He reached up and grabbed her. Placing her in his lap. He wrapped his arms around her. "It sucks we couldn't take Grayson out trick or treating." Oichi says. "He'll be fine. He has all his years to go again and again. What really sucks is that I couldn't have you to myself finally." Grimmjow says kissing her head. "There…There will be other times for that…" Oichi says. Grimmjow laughs. "That's very bold of you to say. Not that I mind. We keep getting interrupted." Oichi leans on his chest. "Yeah…thank you for last night." Grimmjow held her. "I'm sure one day you will find yourself able to forgive them. I wish you wouldn't and keep hating them but, the past months I've been with you I have learned that you have a kind heart. Eventually, the anger you feel towards them will fade." "You think so?" Grimmjow nodded. "I think it's time that we both started moving forward. Together." "Moving forward? Yes, I think I should but, why you as well? Aren't you happy with your life?"

"With you in my life I'm happy but, I think it's about time I find me another job." "Your quitting?" Grimmjow nodded. "After this last thing I do then I'm getting out of this company. I don't know what I'll do without a pay load of money but, I think if I have you with me I can figure it out." Oichi smiles. "Then I wish you luck in whatever you're doing." Grimmjow leans down and plants a kiss on her lips. He truly hope that this will be his last job forever.

---

A few days later at night, Grimmjow had told Oichi to take Grayson and stay with Nel until he got off. He couldn't trust whatever Aizen had him shipping. He was standing at the edge of the coast waiting for the truck. He was smoking a cigarette. He didn't smoke to much around Oichi since she didn't really like it that much. He fixed his gloves that he was wearing. He was in a long sleeve black shirt and black pants and shoes, all with dark blue lining. His shades were sitting on top of his head. "Sir Grimmjow." Grimmjow turned around to see one of his workers Shawlong. "Everything is in place. Yylfordt is making sure there will be no interference. Di Roy and Edrad are on look out and Nakeem is in contact with the truck. Everything is going smoothly." Grimmjow nodded. "Alright. Let's get this shit done. I'm getting uneasy about this. There were no police in this area. No feds, no trackers, no strays, no nothing. Everything is going to perfect." "I to feel that that way. Something seems off…" Shawlong says. His phone rings. He answers it. "I see. Good job, see you soon." "The truck will be here in a few." Grimmjow tossed his bud and blows out smoke. "Go set up." Shawlong nodded and left.

Grimmjow pulled his phone out and dialed Oichi's number. It rings twice before she picked up. "Grimmjow? Are you okay?" "Yeah why wouldn't I be?" "Mmm…I'm just worried. When you told me to stay at Nel's tonight I just…" "I'm fine silly. I'll be back in the morning." "Daddy! Daddy!" Grimmjow chuckles. "I see you have Grayson with you." "Yeah, we are making cookies. You're on speaker so he heard you talking." "Hi daddy!" "Hey little guy." Grimmjow says. He heard Grayson clapping his hands. "You two look so much alike. I wonder if he'll be a spit fire like you when he grows up." "Damn straight he'll be. I don't want a girly son. He needs to be mainly which is why I'm against this whole dumb bubble birthday party. He likes that guy from the show doesn't he. That hero show or whatever."

"Blue beetle from Young justice." Oichi says. "Yeah, that guy. Can't we have a theme for that thing for him?" Oichi giggled. "I think we can do both. Right Grayson?" "Bubbles!" He yelled. "Seems like he wants bubbles." Oichi says laughing. Grimmjow sighs and then frowns when he heard a truck sound in the distance. "I have to get going. I'll call you later." "Okay. Come home soon…?" Grimmjow felt something warm bubbling inside him, hearing that. "Yeah. See you soon." He hangs up.

Oichi sighs a bit as she looked at Grayson. "I hope he's going to be okay…I have a funny feeling." Grayson tilts his head to the side. "Eat! Cook." Oichi rubs his head. "Okay let's make your cookies."

Nel came out the bed room yawning. "I thought I heard that jerks voice." Oichi nodded. "You did but, he had to go do whatever he is doing." Nel rolls her eyes. "I can't believe you wanted to be a couple with that guy. I'm trying to tell you Oichi. He will do nothing but use you until your heartbroken all over again." Oichi frowned. "Nel you keep telling me all these things but I don't think Grimmjow is like that." "You said that about Renji to." "We are just dating Nel. There isn't anything serious going on yet." Nel rolled her eyes. "I'm sure there isn't." "Mama! Foo!" Grayson says holding his hands up. Nel smiled. "I see that sweetie. Can I eat it?" "No! Mine!" He says pouting. Nel and Oichi laughed. "To cute!" They say together.

---

Back at the coast, Grimmjow was watching a truck back up. He had on black sunglasses now. His men were in place in case something went on like an ambush behind his back. It's happened before she he wanted to make sure it wouldn't happen this time.

The truck stopped and the back opened up. "Why hello Grimmjow!" Grimmjow frowned as he watched Luppi jump out the truck. Luppi was the one in charge of some of the transports when he wasn't working at the café. He hated working with Luppi since he was after his job and all. "Just give me the stuff so I can get out of here." Luppi chuckled. "Can't wait to see Oichi huh. I find it disgustingly sweet and funny how she doesn't know about how many bodies you put in a bag." "Yeah, yeah would you hurry it up. I don't have all fucking night you queer." Luppi frowned and pushed the other door opened. "Here you go." Grimmjow walked up to the truck. There were full of large bags. He walked over and unzipped one. It was full of money. "What is this…" Grimmjow says frowning. Luppi smirked. "Why, whatever do you mean? It's what you are transporting." Grimmjow narrowed his eyes and digs deeper into the bag. There were small boxes under the money. He pulled out one and opened it. There were 3 inch bottles full of white pills.

"What the hell is this?" Luppi was leaning on the truck. "Just something new for the health department. You know our crazy scientist can use it rather then the bitch over at the other company." "I see…" He puts everything back and noticed boxes. "There is also some new medical devices and what not. Prohormones, toxic substances and other things like that." "Alright." Grimmjow gives a signal to his men that were in the shadows to start moving things into the truck that was hidden in a warehouse.

Grimmjow and Luppi stood to the side as Grimmjow's men started unloading the truck. "How does it feel to be dating a cutie like Oichi." "Fuck off." Grimmjow says. Luppi chuckled. "Just trying to make talk." "Then stop. I have no desire to talk to you." Luppi chuckled. "Is that so…well tell me this Grimmjow. Do you think Oichi would be happy to know what you really do at nights?" Grimmjow looked down at him. "I mean how would someone so innocent react when she learns the man she likes has so much blood on his hand." "For fucks sake, I wish all of you would stay the hell out of my home life. You don't see me bringing up for visit to the fucking queer bar down the street from the café or how many men you being to your home. I also say nothing about how your trying to take the café away from Oichi by trying to get closer to her and getting rid of Rukia." Luppi frowned. "Watch your step you piece of shit. You don't know who your playing with. I've been in this game long before you."

Grimmjow gave Luppi a cold and deadly look. "I know how to hide your body and make sure Aizen will never find it and even if he does your body will be to unrecognizable to even make a match." Luppi gulp and took a step back but, Grimmjow grabbed him and pulled him close. "You ever try to threaten me about what I do, I'll make sure you regret it." He pushed Luppi down hard to the ground. "Fucking waste of space. How can any think to replace me with a fucker like you." He says turning around to walk off.

Luppi bit his lip in anger but then it turned into a smile. He started to chuckle. "You think your all that Grimmjow. You act like your job can't be replaceable. Anyone with a brain can do your job. What makes you think Aizen is planning on dropping you right here and now." Grimmjow stopped and turned around slightly. "My hands are dirty enough, I've smuggled drugs, guns, animals, machines, bodies, and anything dirty that he wanted. If you want this job you can have it. This is my last job and it will be my last day of this pathetic company. You can have it all."

Luppi smirked and started to laugh. Grimmjow turned all the way around. "What's so fucking funny?" Luppi stood up. "You're a idiot Grimmjow. A huge, huge idiot…"

Suddenly spot lights were turned on uncovering Grimmjow and everyone in the middle of the night. A swat force quickly came out of hiding and surrounded the area. Grimmjow frowned and looked Luppi. "What the hell did you do!" Luppi smirked and opened his shirt to revile a wire. Grimmjow's eyes widen. Luppi chuckled as he mouth the word. 'Replaced'

---

Over at Nel's, Nel was putting Grayson to sleep while Oichi cleaned up the kitchen. Her phone started to go off. She cleans her hand and walks over to it and picks it up. It was a text message. "From Grimmjow?" She opened it up. "Can you come back to the house? There is something important I need to talk to you about." Oichi frowned. "He knows I don't have a car." She texts him back. "How am I going to do that without a car?" She got a quick response. "I sent Yammy to come get you. I haven't reach home yet. Still have to finish up work here." Oichi sighs. "Okay. I'll see you at home then." She put her phone down and walked in the room. "Nel?" She whispered. Nel was rocking Grayson and looked at her. "I'm heading back home. Grimmjow said he wanted to talk and sent Yammy to get me." Nel frowned and shook her head. "Just use my car hun." "You sure?" Nel nodded. "I don't trust Yammy. I don't have work tomorrow so just bring it back tomorrow." Oichi nodded. "Thanks." She waves bye and heads out.

Grimmjow grits his teeth as guns were pointed at him. "Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez! Put your hands were I can see them now!" A voice rings out over a microphone. He sighs mentally as he looked around. He held his hands up so that they could see them. "Now, drop to the ground slowly!" Grimmjow did as he was told. As he dropped to the ground he waved his hand slightly giving a signal to his men in hiding.

Luppi chuckled. "Don't bother…" He says pointing to the side. Grimmjow looked over to see his men walking out. Shawlong stopped a few ways from him with a swat jacket over him. "Our apologizes Sir Grimmjow but this is the end." Grimmjow narrowed his eyes. "You trading out on me huh?" "It was either you or us sir and just like you said the weak die out and the strong survive. No hard feelings." Grimmjow sighs out as he placed his hands behind his head. The swat team ran up to him to make the arrest while others went and search the place. 'I was set up from the beginning huh…what fucking luck…'

Luppi chuckled as he watched. Behind his back was Grimmjow's phone he had snuck out of his back pocket. A wicked smile came to his face as he felt the phone vibrate from a message from Oichi.

---

In Nel's car, Oichi sighs. Something felt off about this. Grimmjow never texted her unless he was working in the morning and those were like simple good mornings and times when he'd come get her. At night he would always call never text. She squeezed the wheel as she sped up a bit. Unknowing to her she failed to see a car following right behind her.

Once she got to the apartment she parted the car and quickly got out. She walked in and headed to the floor. 'Oh Grimmjow…did something happen for you to tell me to come back home? What could he want to talk about?' She walked up to the door and opened it, pushing it open. Walking in, she flipped the switch. Her eyes widen at the sight of the room. It was filled with brown bags. "What the hell?" She closed the door behind her and walked into the kitchen where a open bag of money and a few fire arms were sitting on the table. "What is this?" She took a step back. Just then she saw flashing red lights outside the apartment. The door was kicked down and a group of police ran inside.

Oichi turned around just in time to see guns aiming for her. "Don't move! Take one step and you will regret it!" A man in a black uniform says. Oichi body shakes. She was confused on what was going on.

"That's enough." The men turned around and moved aside. Oichi watched to see Ikkaku, Yumichika, and Toshiro walking in. "I didn't want to have to believe it…" He says looking at Oichi. "Toshiro…what's going on?" Oichi asked. "I'm going to have to ask you to come with me?" "Why? Why is all this stuff in here? Why are these men pointing guns at me?" Toshiro said nothing. "Please answer me!" Toshiro sighs and took out a pair of handcuffs. "I'm sorry Oichi…but, your under arrest…"
