----14th February----

I hate this day!! God!!! What is wrong with the entire world?! Roses, chocolates, hugs, kisses…ugh!!! Everywhere is jammed pack with people. Gah! Soi Fong…when are you going to start talking to me? Are you waiting for me to contact you first? How am I to know that you're not going to throw me out of the room like you did the last round? Though I don't mind, seeing that it would me you having to physically put your hands on me…there is always kido you know..Shut up. If you don't speak, no one would take you for a mute. Ugh! Maybe things in Soul Soicety would be different. I should pay Kukakuu a visit and finish up her sake, since Kisuke had barred me from his stash.

"Oi Kisuke! Get the senkei gate ready, I'm going to Soul Society!"

"Ara, Yoruichi-san~ why are you going there at this time on this particular day? is it because you want to…"

CRASH!!

"I just wanted to visit Kukakuu, finish up her sake and get the hell away from all this lovey-dovey shit that is making me puke. Now, anymore questions?"

"Eto…no more~" said Kisuke as he peered out from under his hat, still struggling to get up as his butt was stuck in the wall of his shop.

"Ano…could you help me out? I'm kinda stuck and I can't get the gate ready if I'm stuck you see~"

Gripping his hand and giving it a hard jerk, Yoruichi yanked him out of the hole, literally.

--One hour later—

"So Yoruichi, tell me what's the really reason you're here...And please don't feed me the bullshit of you're my friend and friends should keep in touch/visit each other...I don't buy that shit. it didn't stop you from disappearing for a hundred years without contact. I bet you are here to visit someone."

"I came here to get away from that lovey-dovey shit that is in the real world only to find that here is just as bad. I mean, seriously, what's up with this day that sends everyone in this ass of a mood?! And I'm not here to see anyone, but to finish up your supply of sake. So now, just shut up and try to out-drink me."

Thus, a drinking contest ensued.

"You know, I heard she had it bad for you. Like real bad. She seems to be more impatient after you left the second time. Did you screw with her again? And there was once, when I was taking a walk in the middle of the night, I overheard her mumbling your name in her sleep, asking when you will be back and saying that she forgives you and stuff like that" slurred a very drunk Kukakuu.

That bitch…what the hell is she doing taking a walk at the headquarters of the second division. She could have died, get killed by the Omitsukido or something like that. Yoruichi looked at her friend fondly. She obviously cares enough to take a walk in the middle of the night. But who on earth will be stupid enough to believe that she took a walk and end up outside the bedroom of the captain of the second division? The face of the vice captain came to her mind. Oh yeah! The fat guy that's vice captain. What's his name again? That rich and fat little shit…Gah! Forget it. But I know he'd buy Kukakuu's story of going for a walk. Though my little bee will have his head for breakfast for believing such a ridiculously stupid excuse. Maybe I should go pay her a visit…

She flash stepped her way to Soi Fong's office and found her protégé buried under a mountain of paperwork, filling out the reports meticulously. The scene brought back memories of the past. Only that time, she was wearing the captain's haori and sprawling on the sofa drinking sake while Soi Fong sat at the very same desk doing her paperwork. She kept everything the way it was. This really brings back memories.

Damn paperwork. If it wasn't because today is Valentine's Day and the entire world is draped in pink and hearts and roses and all that shit, I would have been out training and not sitting here doing paperwork.

Soi Fong snapped out of her paperwork doing frenzy when she felt someone staring at her. It seems to be happening for quite some time already.

Is someone staring at me while I work?! Who the hell is so damn free and itching for a beating? Nevermind, I'm itching to hit something too. Stupid paperwork, if it wasn't for trying to drown out the pink-ness and all, I would have been more alert. Still. That's not an excuse.

She looked up to find herself drowning in a pair of topaz eyes. The very eyes she longed to see, the longing was made worse by this very day.

"Yoruichi-saaama" she squeaked out, reverting back to her ancient habit of stuttering.

"Shh…don't say anything" said Yoruichi, placing her index finger on Soi Fong's lips.

Her lips are so soft. I can't remember when the last time I kissed them was. Maybe it's time to revisit them. You know, she was just about to come around and tell you that she forgives you and now you're trying to screw up before she can tell you that? What are you? A genius?! True. But Kukakuu did say that she said she forgave me. But did you hear it for yourself, from her? You don't want her throwing you out again would you?

Yoruichi hesitated, unconsciously rubbing Soi Fong's lips with her thumb. The pleasure was too much for Soi Fong to handle and she gave in to the temptation. She knew deep down that she has always loved her mentor and it increases with each day, even during the hundred years of separation which she used the ever growing love and tried to convert it into hate.

She parted her lips and flicked out her tongue, shocking Yoruichi in the process. Yoruichi looked at her puzzled, as though what had just happen was a dream.

Now I'm dreaming that she just licked my thumb. Wait! My thumb?! When did I change it to my thumb?! Okay, now I'm going mad. To kiss or not to kiss?

Sensing Yoruichi's hesitation, Soi Fong closed the gap and captured Yoruichi's lips in the softest kiss Yoruichi had ever gotten in the entire (long) life. It was as though history was repeating itself. Soi Fong pulled away and watched as a dazed/ dreamy look appeared on Yoruichi's face.

She kissed me right? She just kissed me. Oh My God. She just kissed me! Does that mean she isn't mad at me anymore?

Soi Fong leaned in again and places a chaste kiss on Yoruichi's lips only to find herself in the middle of a battle for domination which Yoruichi won.

"So I take it that you're not mad at me any longer?" Yoruichi asked, her voice coming out husky.

Soi Fong felt a shiver run up and down her spine at the sound of her mentor's voice.

"No. I'm not mad at you any longer. That's what I wanted to tell you before you leave. I know you have your reasons and I don't blame you for leaving anymore."

"Soi…"

Soi Fong looked into Yoruichi's eyes to see desire, tenderness and above all, love.

"Leave this here and follow me. I'm sure your vice captain can handle it. If he can't, I'm sure you can kick him into doing them and doing them, right?" she smiled.

Soi Fong nodded. Any time spent with Yoruichi-sama is worth way more than clearing paperwork or training, she thought as she flash stepped after her mentor.

AN: Hey! School is insane recently but I'm now on my one week break (which frankly isn't a break cuz I have to go back to school earlier than I do on normal days and more days than term time! I mean, seriously, what's up with the school!). Plus, a certain someone is playing hot and cold games with me which I don't know what to do. So I figured, might as well write a new chapter. Viola! Anw, this might just be the end of the sequel, seeing that they made up and all that. I might continue, depends on when my muse moves back or you people wants me to go on writing. On a side note, is driving me crazy!! I tried to enter my account to upload oh-so-many times and there is forever a technical glitch! Gah! Anw, that aside, please read and review and just enjoy the story. =)
