Chapter 06:

"Last night..." Chiyo started to say but was cut off by Hisagi.

"Don't worry about it. I think I can better understand you now. I just want you to open up to me like last night... minus the calling me an asshole if you would please." He said making her laugh a little. "And you can ask me anything too, Chiyo. I don't want any tension in the squad."

"You're not as bad as you seem..." She said smiling, "Who knows, maybe in a couple of months, I'll go and try to be captain of this squad and then you'd really have to start listening to me, Hisagi-fuzentaicho."

"Really now? You think that's going to happen?" He scoffed.

"I know it's going to happen." She said grinning. "Because all I have to do is shoot the sun." She said looking at him before blinking twice. "And I've been wondering ever since I've met you..."

"Yes?" He asked, thinking she was going to ask about the tatoo on his left cheek.

"How did you get the scars on your right cheek?" She asked him. She saw him drop his head as he laughed. "What?!"

"I thought you were going to ask about my tatoo on my cheek. I get that one a lot, but not so much about my scar." He said running his fingers over the three scars on his cheek that ran up to his hairline.

And so he told her about the story of when he was taking some of the students out to practice against hollow similations when a real one snuck in and killed some of the students, and he tried to fight it, but ended up with the three markings on his face, and that Aizen, and his vice captain, Ichimaru, had gone in and saved him, Kira, Renji and Hinamori.

"And you're not afraid of hollows?" She asked him. "Not in the slightest bit?"

"No. It's what comes when you're a shinigami." He told her. "And even though I hadn't even graduated yet, I wasn't going to let the underclassmen feel terrified forever."

"Wow..." She said, "And since you mentioned it, why do you have 69 tatooed onto your other cheek?"

"Do you have the slightest idea as to why?" He asked her.

"Nope." She smiled. "I was sheltered, remember?"

"Oh... yeah..." Hisagi said with a small laugh. "Well um..."

"You're going to be stationed for a month in a town called Seto, it's in the southern part of the main island." Hisagi explained to her. "You, and Shota Ririn from the tenth squad will be stationed there for the four weeks, 28 days, of febrary."

It had been months, and Yaya Chiyo was now a third seat of squad nine. It was only a mere three months, in April, when she would resign as a Shinigami and go back to the noble blood. She had become close to her vice captain in that time, and liked the time they spent together. She knew in the end, it would all be bad, but she wanted to enjoy the time she did have.

"Right..." She said, nodding to him. Shota Ririn was a fifth seat member of the tenth squad. She was about to leave his office when he reached out and grabbed her wrist, stopping her from leaving just yet. "Yes... Hisagi-fuzentaicho?" She said turning back to him.

"It's going to be a long four weeks you know..." He said with a smirk.

She blushed, looking away from him. "I know..." She stepped back from him, "Shuuhei..." She said after containing her blush, she looked up as him, a look of confusion showing on his face. "We can't..."

"Why?" He asked her.

"Three months left... then I resign..." she told him, "And we won't see eachother again, Shuuhei..."

"I realize that, Chiyo..." He told her, knowing at what she was getting at. "But-"

"But nothing... It can't continue." She told him. "This month that I'm going to spend in Seto... maybe it'll do some good."

"Maybe..." He said with a sigh. She stood on her toes and kissed his cheek. She stepped back, but he stepped forward, his arm around her waist while the other holding her face towards his as he softly kissed her. Her arms worked their way to be around his neck as they parted, he rested his forhead on hers, "Or maybe it won't..."

He planted small and soft kiss on her cheek and neck, and her hands ran up into his hair. "Shuuhei..." She breathed out as she realized what was happening. "No..." She said letting go of him and pushing away. "Shuuhei- no Hisagi-fuzentaicho..." She said stepping back. "I... I'm going to go now..." She turned and left his office.

He cursed to himself as he went and sat on his desk. He looked over to the folder on his desk, Koirukai Saeki...

"Well um..." Hisagi stumbled, not sure what to tell her.

"You said I could ask anything, and so now you have to answer." She teased him as she sat on the chair infront of him, his desk between the two.

"It's kind of hard to explain without it being taken wrong..." He said blushing a bit.

"Is it something that deals with sex?" She asked him.

"Uhm... yeah..." He said surprise showing on his face by her straight-forwardness again.

"Why don't you just say it? I mean, batting around the bush just does not work, Hisagi-fuzentaicho." She told him shaking her head.

"You want me to be straightforward?" He asked her.

"It's the only way things will get done." She told him. "So tell me, Hisagi-fuzentaicho, what's on your mind?"

"I think you should call me Shuuhei, instead of Hisagi-fuzentaicho... but only when the squad or higher ups aren't around." He began. She nodded, taking note. "I also think that you're very beautiful, but that never leaves my mind..." At this Chiyo let out a small blush, "And the fact that someone that you barely even know is suppose to marry you in April, and from what I hear, he's the asshole, not me."

"He's not that bad, Hisagi-fuzen- I mean- Shuuhei." She told him.

"It's from what I hear." He told her, "I also think that someone like you should be able to choose who you want to be with, not have someone else pick for you."

"But that's how it's always been..." She told him.

"Well, I don't think it should be." He told her. "And I also think about what it's like to have your lips against mine."

"What?!" She said blushing madly, hoping she heard right, but at the same time, knowing it was wrong.

"I want to know..." He said swallowing, not sure if he had stepped over his boundry, "What it's like... to kiss you."

"Just do it." she told him, which surprised him. "If you want to know what something's like, you shouldn't hold back."

"Are you giving me permission too?" He asked her.

"No- but I'm telling you to do what you're heart tells you too." She told him, trying to hide the blush that was on her face. She wanted him to do it. She wanted him to just stand up, walk over and kiss her. She wanted to know what it was like to kiss him too. What it was like to feel his lips against hers.

She didn't even notice him stand up from behind the desk, or him walk over to her. She didn't remember standing up or him leaning down. She remembered his lips meeting hers, and the sensation she got from it. She liked the way it felt. She wasn't falling in love- nope. She couldn't.

"Shota Ririn, right?" Chiyo asked a blonde girl that had her hair in curly pigtails. She looked like she was only fourteen years old.

"Yep! You're Yaya Chiyo of the Yaya noble family, right?" The girl asked her.

"Yeah." Chiyo smiled, but not her usual happy smile.

"Are you all right? You seem... sad..." Ririn asked her.

"I'm fine... I'm just... not use to going to the living world for so long." She told Ririn. Or being away from Shuuhei for so long...

"Well, we're suppose to leave at dusk tonight, so hopefully, this will be a fun and easy trip." Ririn said smiling. "I'll meet you here at dust, out front of the gates?"

"Yes. That sounds about right." Chiyo nodded. She returned back to the noble household of Yaya. "Father..." She spoke through the door, "I leave tonight for the month of feburary to be in the living world. Please do not look for me durring this month. I will be very safe." She told her father before standing up and turning to leave.

"Chiyo-chan." Her fathers voice came through the door. She stopped and turned back to the door. "Don't end up like you're mother. Protect those that need protection before it's to late."

"I will... father..." She said before turning and leaving.

She felt the desk behind her as his lips trailed down her neck and onto her colar bone. Why in kami's name did she tell him to do what his heart told him too. Was it the fact that she wanted him too? Maybe just as badly as he wanted her? But it wasn't right- wasn't it considered cheating. "Shuuhei..." She said stopping him for a moment. "I don't think that we should be doing this..."

"It's not cheating if that's what you're worried about, Chiyo..." He said, as he looked her into the eyes. "You're not married..."

"But I'm engaged..." She said making him look away from him.

"I believe it's not cheating unless you have that ring on your finger." He said taking her hand, "And I don't see no ring." He said showing her the hand. She showed a small smile as they hands lined up and entertwined with one another as he kissed her again. His top was soon open and off, and she gazed at his stomache muscled- sculped and all. "And you thought I was attrative before." He said letting out a small laugh as he noticed her gaze.

She walked around aimlessly, as she thought she'd head to the hill with many flowers and tall grass that would cover her being. She was then stopped as two arms appeared on her sides and pulled her backwards. "Shuuhei! I said no!" She said as she tried to excape, a small laugh coming out with it.

"Shuuhei?!" Chiyo froze, recognizing the voice.

"Yachiru-fuzentaicho!" She said turning around suddenly with a laugh on her face. "I was not expecting you!" She said laughing nervously hoping the small pink haired vice captain would not realize who she was talking about.

"Shuuhei? As in Hisagi Shuuhei?" she asked her old third seat.

"N-no! Is that Hisagi-fuzentaicho's first name?!" She said laughing. "I had no idea!"

"Yayo-chan..." Yachiru said looking at the girl. "Why are you lying to me!?!"

"N-no- look Yachiru-fuzentaicho. I'm going off to the living world for a month, so how about I go buy you some candy and sweets?!"

"YAY!" Yachiru cheered jumping on Chiyo's back. Chiyo smiled a bit as she walked through soul society before getting to the ryokai's areas where she went and bought five pounds of sugary goodness for Yachiru. "Thank you, Yayo-chan!" She said jumping off her back. "have a nice mission!" She said running off to find Zaraki.

"Do you regret it?" Shuuhei asked her as he tied his sash at his waist.

"I don't regret..." She told him as tucked her top back in. "I've never had to regret anything..."

"You seem upset..." He said walking over to her and placing a hand under her chin, she looked up at him. "Is everything all right?"

"I'm just... surprised..." She said looking away from him.
