AN:/ HEY GUYS, it has been a long time since i updated cos of work. I just realized that I did another mistake in the chapter. I'm sorry but it was funny that I just notice the next day when I'm just about to make another chapter. I'll try to watch out and be more careful in the following chapters.
Recap:
With Ulquiorra
Ulquiorra barely had any sleep last night because Orihime didn't come to bed. Physically he was fine with it but mentally he wasn't. The night before last was stimulating. Her warmth comforted him in away he couldn't understand. Even with last night, he really didn't gt why he was disappointed of not waking up to see if her warmth lingered on the bed sheets. Ulquiorra did see her preparing his meals to go he wanted hear her say something so he could know that everything was back to normal but she didn't. She didn't even say 'good bye' or 'have a nice day at work' which made him sad.
He went back to the argument, well you can't say argument but their disagreement, from yesterday. He knew it was Aizen's orders for Orihime to work but for Ulquiorra he rather have at the house where its safe then being out there without him knowing her whereabouts twenty-four seven. The world as he knows and studies is very dangerous for a person that is Orihime. Orihime is gullible, naive, innocent and kind in her little circle. He didn't want her to change but if she goes out in the world of worlds she will be eaten alive. Its not as dangerous as Hueco Mundo but the rules are the same. He doesn't want her to be used by any offers from men or women, ESPECIALLY those trash men that only look at her with uncontrollable lust like Nnoitra, Grimmjow and the lesser and less important hollows.
He arrived at the Firm in recorder timing. He parked, grabbed his stuff, locked the car and went inside to go to his office that he shares with Eric. He opened the door of his office and saw Eric at his desk looking over some documents. He walked over to the fridge to put his lunch bento in there, he seated himself at his own desk, and put the breakfast bento in the middle of the two desk. Eric glanced up from the documents to see Ulquiorra grabbing two chopsticks out of his bag and handed him one.
"Thank you so what is it this time?" Eric asked.
"I don't know until I start eating. She and I are having a disagreement at the moment," Ulquiorra replied honestly.
"I'm not going into that until you decide if I have a right but I'm hungry and you need to tell me how you met your wife," Eric said while picking up an egg omelet with his chopsticks.
Ulquiorra chewed on some rice before he answered, "We met in a college study. My father wanted me to be a lawyer, like him, but I really didn't want that. I wanted to be a Architect but I didn't want to destroy my father's spirit so I went to Law School. My Professor gave us a big assignment that was going to be a three month assignment that was crucial to our grades and how great lawyers we would become. He wanted us to go to The University of Tokyo Medical Faculty to work with the students on a murder case. We were partners on the project. When I first saw her, yes she was beautiful, I thought she was those kind of girls that was rich, full of themselves, wants more money and so for but I found out that wasn't the case. She was way she was going through the assignment was stimulating. She had so much passion in her eyes that I couldn't regulate the feeling. We finished the project that day. Our Professors were shocked but gave us more and more and more but we finished them same day but it got us to become friends. We started hanging out. I met her friends and she met my friends and family. Her friends didn't like me because of my family and how I looked. My family liked her, especially my two brothers Grimmjow and Nnoitra so much that I had to keep her away from them. Since we finished all the upcoming assignments early, our Professors decided to let us graduate early with honors and went our separate ways after that but we stayed in contact. I became this big time lawyer after a couple months but I wasn't satisfied so I went to back to school for Architect in secret. I graduated early and had two careers that was suitable in pay to live off of. After two years we met again in front of the court house. I just finished winning a case and hod to go across the street to check on my new building when I saw that there was an accident. The ambulance was there along with the police and fire department and that was when I saw her coming out of the back of the ambulance truck wearing a white doctor coat. I was shocked to see her but confused why she was in an ambulance instead of the hospital. While the police was taking care of the statements I went up to her. We greet each other and she wanted to catch up so I asked her to join me for dinner which she accepted. We met up at this nice little restaurant and talked about what was going on in our lives. She told me that she became a Pediatrician and was highly praised by the medical community in Japan and I told her that I'm doing my career along with being a lawyer but she told me that wasn't healthy and my stress level will go sky high. So story short, I applied for an early retirement from doing the law, we started dating, her friends didn't approve, my family loved it, I proposed with her favorite song in the background and moved here to get away from my father, who wants grand kids, from my brothers who want to take her away from me and her friends," Ulquiorra narrated.
"Wow, that was something," Eric applaud. Ulquiorra and him were just getting ready for a client that was coming in soon to discuss business. Ulquiorra walked over to the window to gaze out into the world outside of the office. It was busy and people were walking around with a direction that they wanted to go. He thought he saw Onna's car but everyone had a car just like hers but then fate bought the reality down hard on him when he saw Orihime leaving a restaurant with two people trailing after her.
"She didn't," he mumbled with anger. There was a knock at the door and Eric went to open it. Their client arrived and Ulquiorra had to set aside his anger to go over the building and location arrangements. The client, Mr. Clien Kurt was a restaurant owner from across the street, and he wanted to build another restaurant. They debated over which location to build it at, the material to use and the design; after that was set and done Mr. Kurt left and Eric wanted to eat lunch so he grabbed Ulquiorra's lunch bento out of the fridge with two bottles of water.
"Since you told me about how you and your wife met let me tell you when I met mines. I was at an art gallery deciding to buy a painting for my moms birthday. I went looking around and it took along time to find one until I saw the one painting I knew she would love. I was going to grab a hold of it until a women (Janette) did the same. We were tugging at it until the director told her something and she had to let go. I bought and left with a victorious smile," he said with glee.
"So your wife is an art buyer?"
"Yes and a good one at that." They finished their lunch and back to work. It was time for them to go so they packed up and left. Ulquiorra drove home with his anger returned in full force. He made it home and went inside to smelling something delicious but kept his resolve.
"Onna, we need to talk."
"What is it?" she asked while stirring.
I saw you today coming outside a restaurant with two people." Orihime was silent and stopped what she was doing.
"I told you if I heard that you disobeyed me that there will be punishment so I will let you take the jobs."
"Really?" Orihime said with shock and joy, "Oh, thank you Ulquiorra this means so much to me-"
"But I won't accept or give you any support." Orihime's joy went down hill after that and before she could say anything Ulquiorra left to go upstairs with this to say, " I better see you in our bed tonight and if I don't I will drag you by the hair."
Chapter 11: What, WHAT and Advice
The screen flicks on (again)
It was early in the morning but this time two people were getting ready for work. Orihime woke up at her usual time, gotten ready for her first day at the hospital and made Ulquiorra is meals to go. She was really glad that she ironed his clothes yesterday before she went into their bed. Orihime thought of what Ulquiorra told her last night about not accepting or supporting her decision. It hurt her to hear that from him. The respect she had for him was dimming very slowly. Ulquiorra came downstairs dressed up and ready for work. He saw her in the kitchen all dressed professional for her first day. He really wasn't happy that she is going to leave the house but her punishment was revealed and she had to take it. But he had to admit that she looked exceptionally beautiful in that grey blazer. They left the house without saying goodbye.
With Orihime
Orihime loved her first day at the hospital. The kids were wonderful and fun, her coworkers were nice to give her the low down about the on going hospital work which Orihime really appreciated. She really wanted to text Ulquiorra about how she was doing but his words were coming back to her and decided against it. Director Holbert called Orihime to her office.
"Mrs. Schiffer, I'm sending you to a medical convention in New York City after you go to your modeling shoot," she said. Orihime was kind of shocked that she had to go to a different sate when she just started working at job that was her dream.
"How long do I have to stay there, when do I leave and who will take car of my patients when I'm gone?" Orihime asked with worry.
"You leave in two days, your staying in a ravishing hotel that is the best in NYC, your going to stay there for about a week and I will take care of your patients when your gone but you will get text messages and calls from me to see what is best or how to take care of them and surgical matters. Look I can understand that you just started but like your manager said that we have to work together on making this work so I'm going to try do your job while your gone even though I don't know that field very well. Can we do this together?"
"Alright I will and try to make you proud of me," Orihime said with determination. Director Holbert was glad that she and Orihime was on the same page now and gave her further instructions on the medical convention since this was her first one. Director Holbert dismissed Orihime from her office. Orihime started walking towards the children ward to see how her 'children' was doing while text Ulquiorra about her departure for New York in two days.
With Ulquiorra
Eric could tell something was wrong with his partner, Ulquiorra Schiffer so he asked him, "What is on your mind?" Ulquiorra looked up at his partner and went back looking over what their client needed for the restaurant before he answered.
"My wife and I are having a dispute about her working."
"What does she do?"
"She is a doctor and now a model," Ulquiorra answered. "I don't see why she want to work on her feet for hours on end as a doctor and standing in one or so places as a model when she can stay home; where it is safe and do her womanly duties."
"I do see where your coming from. To tell you the truth, I really didn't want Janette to continue working which began a two-week argument but I relented because she didn't talk to me, she made me sleep on the couch and her parents, who hate me for some reason, gave her divorce papers."
"I just don't want her to get hurt in this new world that she is not use to. If you ever meet my wife you will know what I'm talking about. She is loving, kind, understanding, gullible, sweet, naive and innocent something that is easily can be taken advantage of. She isn't tainted by the worlds dirtiness which I'm glad about. I've done terrible things in my past that I'm not proud of but I always wondered why me. Why did she choose me,"he admitted.
"Ulquiorra, I know your wife and you are still newly weds but don't let this destroy your relationship. I understand where your coming from. I have done something in my life that I'm not even proud of but Janette has saved me from the nightmares and guilt by being there and I love her for accepting me; all of me. From just hearing describing your wife she sounds just like my Janette. She is still the same when we first met. Why don't you two talk about it out then maybe you can see both parties point of view," Eric advise.
Ulquiorra thought over Eric's words ans saw logic in it. He doesn't want to sleep on the couch it looks and sounds uncomfortable, or get divorce papers: whatever those were: or not hearing her talk to him. He felt his cellphone vibrate in the right of his pants pocket. Ulquiorra took it out and looked at the Caller I.D. He saw it was a text message from Orihime. It somehow made him happy to get a message from but also it bought hope that maybe she was talking to him and accepting to stay home. He opened the message to see what she texted.
Ulquiorra, I have some good news. Director Holbert, my boss, is giving me the opportunity to go to New York City for a medical convention and a modeling shoot for a week and I leave in two days. I'm so happy but nervous about going. I don't want to disappoint her. -Orihime
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. We are having our Annual Christmas Party in a week. This will give you and your wife a chance to meet with your other coworkers and their wives," Eric said. Ulquiorra was silent for a moment.
"What the-, what party?" Ulquiorra was confused. He looked up at Eric and showed him the text message from Orihime and asked him to repeat what he said before.
"Do you think she will be able to make it to the party?" he asked.
"I don't know," Ulquiorra answered honestly.
AN:/ I hoped you enjoyed this chapter and sorry it is short. I made this one short because I wanted some time to write down the big Christmas Party. Orihime is going to NYC for a modeling shoot and a medical convention how will Ulquiorra manage without her warmth and cooking? Will Orihime and Ulquiorra ever get along or will this continue? Ulquiorra accept Orihime having to work two jobs? Will Murcielago stay in the house with them or will he keep disappearing?
