Chapter 6 - Baby kicks and Holding One's Lover in One's Arms

Shiro's P.O.V:

Renji, was slightly pissed with me for not telling him that I had disappeared to see why I had sensed a Garganta being opened. Thankfully, not major pissed with me and allows me to give him a hug, reassuring him I was alright for now.

"So, who's the Blueberry?" He whispers, while pulling back from the hug and just hope that Grimmjow, who was close by, didn't have acute hearing then leading Renji, away from the main part of the shop to our sleeping quarters, slide open the door.

"A former enemy, who has joined our cause - Grimmjow Jeagerjaques." I replied, while he steps inside and goes over to the cupboard to get out his sleeping kimono, when suddenly he places a hand to his abdomen.

"Oh...Shiro, the baby just kicked...ow." He chuckles, lightly and I come up to him, wrapping my arms around him as he takes hold of my hand, placing it on his abdomen covered by the oversized shirt he wears.

There is gentle kick, which makes me smile at him and feel glad that our child was sensing its Father's presence then kiss him, lightly on cheek. This makes him turn his face and he nuzzles against me then turning him around, lead him to over the futon.

Laying him down on it, I lay down next to him and pull him close to me, so he can snuggle up against me then pull the covers up around us, while resting my hand on his abdomen.

"Sleep, love. You'll need it." I whisper, kissing his forehead and soon the only sound in the sleeping quarters, is his gentle breathing as I look down at him then settle down as well to sleep.
