Chapter 17: A Sleepover

Grimmjow had come in and actually hung out with Ikkaku and Yumichika while I cooked us all dinner. He seemed to be getting along with them now, and I appreciated that. I laughed when I heard Ikkaku complaining about his ex-girlfriend and how psychotic she apparently was… and then I laughed harder when Yumichika told me that she was actually Keigo's older sister. After dinner, Grimmjow watched TV while Yumichika and Ikkaku told me about the assignments that I missed and we did our homework. When I finished my work, I got up from the floor and sat next to Grimmjow on the couch.

He wrapped his arm around me and pressed a kiss to my forehead. "Ready to go, babe?"

I tilted my head in question before I figured out what he must have meant. "Grimmjow… I'm not going to stay with you."

His eyes narrowed and he opened his mouth to say something, but I interrupted him.

"I'll be fine here… and you're right next door if I need you."

His eyes stayed narrowed, but he let out a heavy breath. "Fine…" He grumbled. "But keep your damn phone on… and alive."

I smiled at him. "I will. And I promise to answer all of your calls and messages."

He stood up, pulling me up with him. I walked with him out of the room and to the front door. When we were in the entryway, he tangled a hand in my hair, wrapped his arm around me, and pulled me close.

"See you out on the balcony later…" He smirked before pressing his lips to mine.

I had given Ikakku and Yumichika some of my uncle's pajamas so that they could shower in the guest washrooms and get ready for bed. I was in my own washroom, drying off and getting dressed after my shower. After brushing and drying my hair, I stepped out into my room to see the guys sitting on my bed. Yumichika was dressed in the blue silk pajamas that I had given him, but Ikkaku was only wearing the gray silk pants, the matching shirt tossed onto my dresser. I tried not to gape at how insanely well-muscled he was… like, did he live in a gym? Oh, wait… he lived in a dojo… that's right! But Yumichika wasn't that overly-built… eh, I guess he preferred a leaner look.

"I told you! He's gonna kill us!" Ikkaku groaned, burying his face into my pillows.

"I know… we've got to figure a way out of this." Yumichika looked grim as he leaned against my headboard.

"What exactly did you two do?" I questioned, wondering why they were so afraid of their caretaker.

"We caught the fucking dojo on fire." Ikkaku grumbled, his voice muffled by the pillows.

I gaped. "How the hell did you do that?"

"It was an accident!" Yumichika defended.

I wasn't sure whether to laugh or be horrified. I sat down at the foot of the bed. "Well if it was an accident… won't Kenpachi understand?"

"No! He'll kill us!" Ikkaku grumbled some more.

I sighed, falling back onto his legs and using them as a headrest. "Have you at least tried to apologize?"

"We left a note…" Yumichika explained. "But judging from the threatening phone calls and text messages… I don't think that appeased him."

"Have you answered his calls or text him back?" I asked, tilting my head to look at Yumichika.

"Of course. But he just yells… and it's frightening."

I couldn't help but laugh at the terrified look on Yumichika's face. I was about to say something else, but my phone started ringing.

Ikkaku reached over and grabbed it off of my nightstand. "It's your boyfriend." He mumbled before tossing it over his shoulder at me.

I saw Grimmjow's face on the screen. "He's not my boyfriend." I mumbled before answering the phone. "Hello?"

"Come outside." Grimmjow's gruff voice answered. And then he hung up without another word.

I got up from the bed and went over to the balcony. "Be right back, guys." I went out and was sure to shut the doors behind me.

Grimmjow was standing on his balcony in his usual nighttime attire… black pants and chest bare… There was a cigarette in his mouth and an unhappy expression on his face. "They're in your room." He didn't say it like a question… but it seemed like he was waiting for an answer.

I shrugged at him. "Yeah… we're talking about how they pissed off Kenpachi."

"They shouldn't be in your room." He huffed back.

I sighed. "Why not?"

"Because they're boys and there's a fucking bed and you shouldn't be hanging out with them in your bedroom." He snapped out, almost growling the words.

I struggled not to glare at him. I wanted to slap my forehead with exasperation. "You're overreacting, Grimmjow."

"How the hell am I overreacting when you've got dicks in your bed?" He actually growled this time.

I was trying so hard not to get angry that I said something that I wished I hadn't. "Because you're the only one that I've ever done anything with!" I covered my mouth as if I could keep the words in, but it was too late. My cheeks turned red with embarrassment. How could I have told him that?!

He was quiet for a moment. His head tilted to the side… then a smirk spread across his face. "Oh? Really?"

I didn't answer him. I just glared, still covering my mouth and blushing.

So he chuckled. "I mean… I know you're still a virgin… but exactly how inexperienced are you?"

If I could die from embarrassment then I probably would. I let my long, pink hair fall down to cover my face. It fell into my eyes so that I wouldn't have to see the smug expression that he was wearing.

He chuckled again. "I've been looking forward to being your first, ya know… But I didn't realize that I was your first at everything."

"Will you shut up?" I mumbled quietly.

"Aw, come on, babe." His voice was filled with humor. "It's nothing to be ashamed about." Then his voice deepened and turned husky. "In fact… it just makes you even more special."

I moved my hands away from my face and wrapped my arms around myself. With some hesitation, I lifted my head enough to look at him.

"Come on, babe… tell me exactly what you mean… when you said that I'm the only one…" He was grinning, his bright blue eyes shining splendidly.

I took a deep breath, gathering my courage. "I've only ever had one kiss before you… and it was nothing like the way that you kiss me." It was true… the kiss that I had with Renji had been soft and sweet… while Grimmjow's kisses were hot and passionate… and they always seemed to lead to something… more…

His grin widened. "Juna…" He said my name in a deep voice, and something inside of me loved the way it sounded. "…you're fucking amazing." He laughed before taking a long drag from his cigarette.

I felt a smile stretch across my face. "Goodnight, Grimmjow."

He smiled back at me. "Goodnight, babe."

I walked back into my room to see that the lights had been turned off and Yumichika and Ikkaku were both in my bed and snuggled underneath my blankets. I guessed that they decided that they liked my room better than the guest rooms… I took the only spot that was left, the one in between them, thankful that I had a king-sized bed. As I was getting comfortable, Ikkaku spoke.

"For a guy who's not your boyfriend… he sure is pretty possessive." He mumbled, turning onto his side.

I sighed. "He's just protective."

Ikkaku snorted, almost laughing. "Whatever."

I slept pretty well, even though I was forced to share my bed. Ikkaku snored like an angry beast, but the sound was actually kind of comforting… it reminded me that I wasn't alone. And Yumichika liked to cuddle… at some point he wrapped his arm around my waist and held me like a teddy bear, his head resting on my shoulder and his body snuggled up next to mine. I wondered if this was what it was like to have brothers…

When Yumichika's alarm went off Ikkaku started grumbling in his sleep and he wrapped his arms around me. And then, when Yumichika hopped out of bed and turned on the lights, he grumbled louder and burrowed his face into my hair. Since I wanted to sleep a little longer, I grabbed a pillow and put it over my face. After some time, Yumichika started yelling at us to get up, and he yanked the pillow away from me. So I turned around and buried my face into Ikkaku's chest. Yumichika started yelling louder as he pulled the blankets off of us. And when he began to try and pull us out of the bed, we held onto each other and started screaming like children.

"Leave us the hell alone, Yumichika!" Ikkaku roared.

"I want to sleep!" I screeched.

"It's time to wake up, you heathens!" Yumichika yelled back at us.

This continued for some time… until my phone started ringing. I was going to ignore it, but Yumichika had picked it up.

"It's Grimmjow!" He snapped at me before answering it. "Hello?"

Oh, fuck!

"No, she won't get out of bed."

Dammit, dammit, dammit! Grimmjow was going to be so angry!

"I'm trying to make her get up."

"Yumi, give me the damn phone!" I finally wrenched myself out of the bed, sending poor Ikakku to the floor as I reached for my phone.

Yumichika just smirked as he tossed me my phone.

"Hello? Grimmjow?"

"Waking up to the sound of you screaming is not my idea of a good morning." He grumbled, clearly unhappy.

"I'm sorry… we were fighting and… I guess we got carried away…"

He sighed. "Well I guess fighting is better than fucking."

I immediately started blushing. "Grimmjow! Stop saying things like that!"

He groaned, obviously still half asleep. "I'm going back to sleep… I'll pick you up when you get outta school."

"Okay…"

"Bye, babe." He hung up without waiting for me to say goodbye.

"And you say he's not your boyfriend." Ikkaku grumbled from the floor, rubbing his bald head in irritation.

I glared at him. "That's because he isn't!"

Yumichika grabbed my ear and pulled me into the washroom. "Let's just get ready."

At school, everyone was buzzing about going to the karaoke bar… discussing songs that they wanted to sing, who they wanted to sing them with, and even what they were going to wear. It was making me all excited… even though the idea of singing in front of an audience was bringing up some less than fond memories. But as long as I was with my friends, I was sure that I would be okay.

"So, Juna… you wanna sing a song with me?" Ichigo asked, leaning back in his desk.

I grinned at him happily. "Sure, Ichigo."

"No, no, no!" Renji yelled out. "You've gotta sing a song with me, Juna!"

"I asked her first! You snooze, you lose!" Ichigo turned around to glare at his friend.

I laughed as they started arguing. "How about we sing a song together?" I suggested, having to speak loud enough to be heard over their yelling.

They stopped strangling each other and turned to me.

Ichigo shrugged. "Yeah, we could do that."

"What song would we sing?" Renji asked.

I tapped my finger on my chin as I thought. Then the perfect song came to mind. "Oh, I know the perfect one!" I said excitedly.

They looked at me expectantly, waiting to hear my idea. I opened my mouth to tell them, but then…

"Oh, sweeeeet Juuunaaa!" A high pitched shrill interrupted me.

I had just enough time to brace myself before two groping hands reached for my chest. "Chizuru!" I yelled her name unhappily.

She just giggled, a lecherous grin on her face as she fondled my breasts. We were both blushing, but for very different reasons. I grabbed at her wrists, trying to pry her off of me as I wondered where the hell Tatsuki was.

"Ch-Chizuru!" Ichigo spluttered. "Will you knock it off?!" He pulled her away from me while Renji just stared, eyes wide and jaw dropped. They were both blushing too.

"There you are!" Tatsuki shouted from the doorway before she stomped over, promptly grabbing Chizuru by the collar and dragging her away.

We barely had time to recover from the scene before Mrs. Ochi walked in and started class.

School ended eventually, and of course Grimmjow was waiting for me by his car. I walked up to him, avoiding the smoke from his cigarette.

"Hey, babe." He grinned, leaning down to press a kiss to my lips.

I frowned at the taste of his cigarettes. "Do you have to smoke those? They're so gross." And as an afterthought, I added "And stop calling me babe."

He laughed out loud, his grin widening. "Damn, you're sassy today."

I sighed… he was always blowing me off!

"I got you something…" He smirked happily, opening the passenger door so that I could get into the car.

I eyed him suspiciously as I slid inside. "What is it?"

He left the door open and went to the trunk. Then he pulled out a black garment bag with the Empress Designs logo. "I figured you'd wanna wear something besides your school uniform tonight."

I watched, wide eyed, as he unzipped the bag to reveal a gorgeous, dark purple dress. It had a one shoulder strap that was covered in rhinestones and it was pleated at the waist before flaring out at the hips. It was amazing. "It's gorgeous…" I breathed, completely awestruck that Grimmjow would do something this considerate.

He grinned happily. "Glad ya like it. Harribel also gave me some shoes for it… they're in the back." He zipped the bag back up and took it back to the trunk. "My club is on the way. You can change there."

I waited until he put out his cigarette and got into the driver's seat to speak again. "Your club?"

"Yeah… I got some business to take care of anyway. So we're stopping there first." He put the car in drive and started off down the street.

I wondered about his club… he had told me about it, but… now I was actually going there? "Is it open on the weekdays?"

"Yeah, but not until nighttime. Our busy nights are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday… but we make money the other nights, too." He explained patiently. He always seemed to enjoy talking about his business.

"So if you're open every night… Why have you been spending all of your time with me?" I suddenly felt guilty, as if I had been keeping him away from his job.

He chuckled and placed his hand on my leg. "Cause you're a hell of a lot more interesting than my club on the weekdays, babe." He gave me a grin and a wink. "And besides, I'm the fucking King. I've got employees to take care of shit for me… I go by when you're at school to check on things… and I'll be taking you there this weekend, remember?"

Oh, yeah… he had said that, hadn't he? Suddenly I was nervous. What the hell was I going to do at a club?

We pulled up into an empty parking lot. He opened my door before going to the trunk to get the garment bag and a shoebox. Then we walked up to the building. He had to unlock the door before we went inside.

"King Grimmjow!" A very large man called out as we walked in. He had one side of his head shaved while the other side had long, flowing, red hair. He was cleaning the bar, making it nice and shiny before opening.

"Yo, Edrad!" Grimmjow called back. "Where's Shawlong?"

"Upstairs, counting yesterday's sales." He answered back. Then he looked at me, and a friendly smile spread across his face. "Hey, there."

I smiled back at him. "Hello."

Grimmjow put his free arm over my shoulders. "This is Juna. Juna, that's Edrad… one of my employees."

I nodded. "Nice to meet you, Edrad."

Edrad nodded back at me. "Nice to meet ya, too."

Grimmjow barely let us finish our introductions before pulling me to a door marked "Employees Only." It led down a hall and to a staircase, which he pulled me up and then down another hallway. At the end of the hall was a door marked "The King." He unlocked it and pulled me inside, turning on the lights. There was a large, heavy looking, wooden desk that was covered in papers, yet somehow looked organized. A tall, leather chair sat behind the desk with a curtained window behind it. Two comfy chairs faced it, away from the door. A wet bar lined one wall and various filing cabinets and shelves lined the other. Everything looked expensive and well maintained.

"This is my office." Grimmjow explained as he laid the garment bag and shoebox onto one of the chairs. "You can change in here."

I stopped staring at the room so that I could give him a smile. "Thanks, Grimmjow."

He grinned at me, stepping close and wrapping his arms around my waist. "Just kiss me, babe."

I sighed, wanting to tell him again to stop calling me that… but he was being nice, so… I leaned up and kissed him. He nibbled on my lip, letting it drag through his teeth before pulling away. He left with a grin, locking the door behind him.

I changed quickly, folding my school uniform neatly and putting it into my bag. I also tucked my bra into my bag, since the dress had one built into it. And I hurriedly put the dress on, kinda nervous of being in a strange place and afraid that Grimmjow would walk back in at any moment. I realized with distress that I couldn't get the zipper all the way up by myself. Dammit! I pulled it up as far as I could, which was only about halfway, before I decided to just put the shoes on and try again afterward. The shoes were black, pointed, and had a short stiletto heel. After slipping them on, I went back to trying to zip up the dress. I nearly panicked when I heard the door unlocking. I turned quickly to face the door, watching as Grimmjow walked in.

He laughed upon seeing me. "Why are you blushing like that? You look good."

I sighed, slumping my shoulders. "I can't get the damn thing zipped up."

Then he laughed harder. "Well… I can help you with that."

I bit my lip, blushing even deeper as he slowly shut the door behind him and closed the distance between us. "Grimmjow…" I whispered at the predatory look in his eye and the smirk on his face.

His smirk grew. "Don't worry, babe…"

His hands settled on my waist and he slowly turned me around. My heart was pounding as he swept my long, pink hair to the side. I could feel his warm breath on the back of my neck. His hands ran up my sides before his fingers found the zipper of the dress. My body tensed as I felt him get closer. And then his hot, soft lips met the bare skin of my back, and I gasped in surprise. He slowly zipped up the dress, kissing his way up my back as he did. I felt myself relaxing at his gentle ministrations… giving in to how amazing it felt. When the dress was completely zipped up, he kept kissing his way to my neck as his hands ran back down to my waist. He pulled my body up against his as he started to suck and nibble on my neck. A soft moan escaped my lips.

He chuckled into my skin before pulling away. "You are so fucking beautiful…" He mumbled as he turned me back around to face him.

I blushed, unable to make eye contact as he looked me up and down.

"Let's go." He wrapped an arm around my waist and then led me away.
