A Ghost Story

"So when are you going to tell Kira that you love him?" Renji said to his flatmate Tetsuzaemon after he waved goodbye to their friends as they left the coffee shop and headed to their shared flat.

Tetsuzaemon was so shocked by his friend's question that he jerked so hard the black sunglasses he wore almost fell off. "What the hell are you going on about Abarai!" He shouted once his mind started working again and he adjusted his glasses.

"Oh come on," Renji continued unfaltered by his friend's tone. "You know Kira, the blond blue-eyed ghost who resides in our apartment that we've lived in for the past three months. Who you fell in love with the moment you laid eyes on him." He finished with a grin toward Tetsuzaemon.

He returned that grin with a grumble. "You know it's not that simple, what with what we are and all." He stuffed his hands into the pockets of his jacket turning his head to the ground.

Renji lost his grin.

"Us being werewolves has nothing to do with us not being able to have a relationship. I mean look at Shuuhei. He and Rangiku have been together for almost a year now. And besides we are one of the few creatures who can see and interact with him, being a werewolf should be an argument for you two getting together not against it."

Tetsuzaemon listened but the frown never left his face. "Listen it's not like I don't want to tell him about how I feel, it's just he's still hung up on his ex-fiancé and I don't even know how he feels about me or if he's ready for another relationship."

"He's been dead for two years. Trust me he's ready even if he doesn't know it himself yet. Stop being a coward and tell him, we're all tired of how tense you get whenever you are around him or when he is brought up."

"Kami, you're calling me a coward! What about you? You who can't even speak to Kuchiki-chan whenever she comes to serve us." Tetsuzaemon immediately shot back.

"Uh, don't remind me," Renji moaned as he placed his head in his hands. "I really wish I was drunk right now, so I didn't have to think about it." Renji had had a crush on Kuchiki Rukia ever since he walked into the coffee shop near their flat but always got tongue tied or did something stupid whenever she came near.

"I hear ya." He agreed. "I had a craving for some sake tonight as well but you and I both know why we can't have any for the next week." The full moon was a week away and they could all feel the Wolf in themselves stirring and being inhibited in this state would probably cause them to do something really stupid.

"Alright you win." Renji admonished as he pulled his face away from his hands. "I'll stop talking about Kira if you stop bringing up all these depressing things." He shot Renji a grin and began talking animatedly about things that did not involve their relationship or werewolf woes as they trekked back to their apartment.

Once they reached the door of their flat they both could hear the soft click of the deadbolt being unlocked. One of the perks of having a ghost as a flatmate, never having to worry about your keys. They both entered the apartment relieved to be out of the cold night air, winter was fast approaching Karakura Town and Karakura wasn't fighting it.

"I made you both some tea since it seemed like a cold night tonight, its on the table by the door..." A diminutive voice said coming from the direction of the stairs that were in front of the front door. With a glance to the stairs both saw Kira Izuru in his usual gray light wool sweater and black pants.

Both were in the process of removing their heavy jackets when Kira had informed them of the presence of the beverages. Warm tea was a welcome sight and a usual in their home. Once they placed their jackets on hooks that were on the wall beside the door they both grabbed a mug and took a long sip.

"Thanks Izuru you have no idea how much I needed this." Renji said after his sip and made his way to the right where the kitchen was to grab a seat.

"Yeah." Tetsuzaemon said as he joined Renji in the kitchen taking a big gulp.

Izuru blushed as they complemented his tea and stood to join his flatmates in the kitchen. "Abarai-san, Iba-san. Thank you but you don't need to say such things."

"Yeah right!" Renji cried after he finished taking another sip. "Your tea and coffee are the best Iba and me have ever had. And your cooking is always mouthwatering." Ever since Izuru got comfortable around them they found out that he could interact with objects better than he could before so the job of cooking obviously went to him once they both experienced it.

"Renji does have a point for once." Iba agreed taking another gulp from his mug as he leaded against the counter just enjoying the taste and noticing the cute little blush Kira got as they showered him with praise over his skills in the kitchen.

"So what time was it again that Shun is coming over tomorrow? I forget." Renji asked as he finished his cup, the question caused Tetsuzaemon to frown behind his cup and Izuru to break into a bright beautiful smile as he took a seat at the kitchen table.

"He's coming tomorrow around twoish and he sounded really excited to meet the two of you in his message." The joy and excitement in his voice could not be missed, it was understandable since he had not seen his fiancé Shun in two years since he died in this very house. Renji and Tetsuzaemon were a bit interested in meeting this Shun since he was their landlord and they were curious about the man who had managed to capture their friend's heart. But unlike Renji Iba's interest lay in wanting to scoop out just who his competition was since Izuru always got that enamored look in his eyes whenever he was brought up.

"So how is Komamura-san and the others doing?" Izuru asked still cheery and breaking the other two from their thoughts. The three of them continued to talk late into the night about what had been going on with their friends until the two wolves had to give in to sleep and retired upstairs to their rooms.

The next day Renji and Tetsuzaemon had left for work and left Kira to his own devices, which had been sprucing up the apartment since he could not sit still with the knowledge that he would be seeing Shun again in such a long time.

It was when he was in the living room that was just opposite of the kitchen, straightening out some magazines that were left on the coffee table when it first happened.

Izuru was just putting the magazines down when his face suddenly jerked to the side and a pain sprung instantly in his left cheek as if he had been struck. He was so confused that he did not even notice the cut on his lip.

Suddenly a jolt of pain came from his stomach that had him stumbling into the wall behind him. He was frightened. This had never happened to him before and the pain was so much that all he could do was stay leaning on the wall, holding his gut and panting. He was so frightened and caught up that he had not noticed the sound of a key entering a lock or the deadbolt being moved until he heard a voice that froze him and drained the color from his face.

"Hello? It's me Hayashi Shun. I left a message on your phone." Izuru was still leaning on the wall as he heard that baritone voice cry out but he had remembered that voice saying something quite different and in a harsher tone.

"You little SLUT! I saw how you were looking at that man!"

The shock of hearing that was so great that he barely noticed the pain in his right eye or the bruise that was quickly forming around it.

Hayashi not noticing the distressed ghost walked right in and called out again. "Is anyone here? Hello?" He called out going into the kitchen. Hayashi was a tall attractive Japanese man with short black hair and dark brown eyes that were so dark they looked black instead of brown.

Just as he was making his way to the living room the sound of heels on asphalt could be heard and a high pitched voice called out from the doorway as Shun entered the living room.

"Well are they in?"

The question caused him to turn and for a second it almost seemed as if his dark brown eyes were making direct eye contact with Izuru's wide pain filled blue ones. Then the connection was broken and he stared past Kira at the brown haired woman standing in the hallway.

"Sorry sweetie it looks like we got here a little too early." Shun said as he left the living room and went to embrace the woman and give her a kiss. As Shun walked away Izuru managed to push himself away from the wall to stare at the exchange between the two and to hear another memory about his love.

"You really are worthless you know that. You're barely even a good fuck!"

Those words and the sight undid him so much that it did not even take the pain in his legs to send him sprawling into the wall beside the door. The pain in his body and his heart was so much that all he could do was cry.

"Well, this was a waste of time." He almost missed when they pulled apart. "Come on I don't want to miss my appointment at the salon and I don't want you getting all depressed over coming to the place where your ex died tripping down the stairs."

After Izuru heard that a vision flashed of him being at the top of the stairs and Shun's furious face right in front of him and Shun gripping his upper arms.

"Sure sweetheart you're right let's go, it's about time we got going."

"You know I think it's about time I got rid of you, Izuru."

He felt Shun push him.

He did not notice when the two left the house or the sound of the door being locked. All he did was bring his knees up to his chest and cried as he was assaulted by the memories of all the times Shun had hit him.

Tetsuzaemon knew he would get home late and felt a little bad about it, but his job kept him at the hospital a bit later then he expected. His job as a technician sometimes kept him late and he was sure Kira would understand and get over missing the chance to see his ex.

He adjusted his sunglasses as he parked his car in front of his house and calmly got out. Renji was not with him since he had met up with Kuchiki Rukia who was visiting her ailing sister with her brother and invited Renji out for a cup of coffee. He now had Kira and the house to himself, with a small smile he grabbed the doorknob expecting the door to open. The door was locked, the deadbolt still in place.

Tetsuzaemon saw nothing wrong with that and just reached into his pocket for his key. He still felt nothing wrong even though there was no tea and no blonde on the stairs to greet him as he took off his jacket. Then he heard a small sniffle and sob.

His face shot to the left where he saw Izuru curled up against the wall.

"Izuru! What's wrong!" he cried as he raced over to the blond, noticing how his clothes had changed. His sweater no longer looked bright and clean but was a dark duller grey that looked ragged and worn and his pants were ripped in several places. He and Renji had noticed early on that the state of Izuru's attire reflected how he was feeling at that moment. He had never seen his clothes so bad before that it almost scared him. "Izuru, please what's wrong?"

"T-Tetsuzaem-mon...?" A small voice stuttered.

"Yes, Izuru I'm right here." The use of his given name had startled him a bit since Izuru always insisted on calling him by his last name.

With a sob Izuru lifted his head. Tetsuzaemon gasped as he saw his bruised and beaten appearance.

"Kami...Izuru what happened to you?" Kira broke down again with fresh tears and sobs. The werewolf gingerly embraced him letting him cry on his shoulder, softly stroking his hair.

He was not sure how long they spent curled up the way they were but when Kira finally said something it made him jump.

"I-I...remembered..." He hiccuped. Tetsuzaemon gently pulled away and let him speak. "I... r-remem-mbered...e-everyt-thing...t-that...h-he...d-did"

"I don't understand." His worry was growing by the second. "What happened?"

"S-Shun...came...by...and, an-" He broke down unable to finish. Tetsuzaemon embraced him again letting him cry. "Oh Kami, I'm s-so worthless and w-weak... I'm sorry.

He froze after he heard Izuru say that. What could have possessed him to say such things.

"Kira why would you say something like that...?" He pulled away studying his broken crush.

"Be-because i-it's the t-truth..." He could not meet his eyes and continued to look at the floor in shame.

Tetsuzaemon would have none of that. He placed two fingers underneath his chin and gently lifted his face up.

"Now you listen here Kira. You are not worthless or weak. You are strong, beautiful and amazing with nothing to be sorry for and I don't care what anyone says about you for that is the truth about you and nothing less. You are not worthless." He held his face to make sure he listened and it lifted his spirits when he saw some of the swelling going down on the bruises that littered his face.

"I'm n-not...?" Blue eyes full of tears looked up at him.

"No, of course you're not worthless or weak. You're one of the strongest people I know. You're the only one I know who can stand in front of a whole werewolf pack and not cringe in fright but make friends with all of them." The tears were still in his eyes but the swelling was almost gone from the bruises, the cut on his lip was almost closed and his pants were now hole less and his sweater less worn.

Kami he swore he'd kill whoever made Kira doubt himself like this.

"No, No you're wrong. I'm not strong at all." The tears fell again."I wasn't strong enough to stop him..."

"Kira what-"

"Shun killed me! He pushed me down the stairs!" He yelled stopping Tetsuzaemon dead. "Kami, I'm so pathetic that I even drove my ow-" Whatever he was going to say was lost as Tetsuzaemon kissed him like he'd never been kissed before. Kira was stunned. He looked up at the werewolf seeing himself reflected in his sunglasses.

"I'm so sorry Kira, but if he was the one who told you all those lies don't listen to them. The moment I saw you for the first time I was stunned; you were just so beautiful I couldn't look away. I am asking you to please let me show you just how wonderful you are." He knew he sounded cliched and mushy, all the things he would laugh at, but he did not care as long as it helped Izuru see the truth about himself.

"How..?"

"Do you trust me and are you willing to let me do everything?" He leaned in to give Izuru a soft kiss.

Izuru studied Tetsuzaemon trying to read his intentions. After a moment he nodded.

Tetsuzaemon immediately moved from his front to his side startling him. He was even more confused when he placed his arms under his legs and back lifting him up off the floor, Kira squeaked and held on to him as he moved toward the stairs.

"I-Iba-san...?"

"Just trust me alright." he gave him a peck as he mounted the stairs. He took a left at the top of the stairs heading for his room. Once he got there he gently laid Kira on the dark colored sheets on his bed. He could not stop himself from taking a moment to admire the image the blond made as he lay there sprawled on his sheets.

"I-Iba-san? Just what are you doing?" he asked pushing himself up by elbows, but he was stopped by Tetsuzaemon lightly touching his shoulders, he saw his shirt was gone.

"I meant what I said about you being beautiful and stunning me when I first saw you. I know that you have been hurt horribly which is why I am going to show you the proper way a person shows their love to another and that you are worth being loved." He finished by taking off his sunglasses revealing his deep brown eyes and kissing him, his tongue licking the smaller male's cool lips asking for entrance.

Izuru almost got caught up in everything that was going on but he stopped himself from doing that when he realized just what Iba was planning, he pulled away from the kiss.

"I-Iba-san, wait. I don't know if we can do that...or if I'll feel anything if we do do it... I mean I'm dead and you're not." He stared back up at him beseechingly, hoping he understood what he was getting at.

"Izuru," He began never looking away from the smaller male. "I understand what you are saying about me still being alive and you being dead. But I am a werewolf, I can see you, I can hear you and I can feel you." He cupped the blonde's cool unbruised cheek with his hand. "And I know you can feel my hand on you. So please give me the chance to show you how much I care for you and to help you." He rubbed away one of the faint tear tracks looking at him hopefully.

Izuru hesitated unsure if he could give what was being asked of him. "If I asked you to stop, would you?"

"Of course I would, you are as in control of all this as much as I am. So please allow me."

"Alright...you can do what you want to do." He was immediately brought into another kiss and this time he allowed his lips to part. Izuru found out Iba was very skilled with his tongue for he soon had the ghost melting into his arms and his own tongue shyly starting to participate.

Tetsuzaemon leaned forward pushing the blonde to lie back on the bed. He then pulled away from Izuru, who let out a whine and gently pulled off the grey sweater. Revealing his slight frame and flat stomach, he also noticed faint bruises all over his upper torso that made him growl in the back of his throat but that was for later. Right now he needed to focus on pleasuring his mate. He ran his warm hands over the cool body noticing how his body temperature was not as cold as it usually was.

"Kira, I think I'm warming you up." His voice broke Kira from the daze he had been in from having someone touch him in such an intimate manner and then noticed that yes he was actually starting to feel something.

"I don't know what this feeling is... It's been so long... But please don't stop..." He opened his blue eyes drunken with lust and pulled Tetsuzaemon closer.

"Who am I to deny you." The werewolf grinned and ran his hands lightly over the ghost's chest, one hand caressing a dusty nipple. Izuru gasped and a visage of pleasure took over his face at his ministrations.

Tetsuzaemon was not sure he would be able to last if the blond kept making those faces, it made him want everything of the blonde. He leaned down and took one of the nubs into his mouth giving it a little suck and the other a pinch, earning a loud gasp and moan from the one beneath him. He felt when fingers came to clutch at his hair as he reached down to the black pants that the smaller male had died in. he began to pull the pants off barely noticing how easy it was to slide them down his narrow waist and legs.

He leaned back so he could slide the pants off Kira's legs and to take off his own. Kira was slightly hard and was panting as his body was still going through the throes of pleasure that still assaulted him, his hands laying at his side, his hair was out off place and hung limply over his face, his skin was flush with color and his hooded blue eyes were hazy with pleasure and lust.

Iba was as hard as steel. It took everything he had not to just plow into the beautiful creature that lay before him. He leaned over Kira to a drawer in his nightstand and after a bit of rummaging came back with a plastic bottle.

"I don't think you'll be needing that...I mean I am a ghost..." The blue eyes eyed the bottle sceptically.

"Humor me and besides you feel just as solid as me." He grinned as he popped open the cap and squeezed a generous amount of the lotion on two of his fingers. He spread the blonde's legs wider and comfortably settled in between them.

He placed the two fingers at the blonde's entrance and leaned down. The actions startled Izuru, but not as much as what Iba did to him next. Just as he slid the two fingers into him he took Kira's length into him mouth and Kami did he feel it. He let out a cry at two sensations. The feeling of two fingers inside him and the warmth around his length almost had the ghost cumming right there. Iba then added a third finger, the intrusion caused him to groan which signaled the werewolf to suck harder, causing the blonde to loose the ability to think.

Once Iba was satisfied with the stretching he pulled out his fingers and released the hard member in his mouth. He grabbed the discarded bottle and slathered his erection with the lotion. He tossed it aside and lifted up one of Izuru's legs for better access and gently slid his way inside of the blonde, who was hot. Izuru let out a whine at the intrusion of something bigger than a few fingers, Iba seeing his discomfort leaned down and swallowed him up in a blazing kiss hoping to distract him as he pushed in further. Once he was fully inside he stopped the kiss and gasped as he enjoyed the feeling of the unexpected heat that surrounded him.

"I-Iba-san p-please...m-move." He had been waiting for the blonde to adjust and that beg was enough to send him over the edge.

He started out at a calm and steady pace but it soon gave way to faster frenzied thrusts as the Wolf started to take over. He had been shifting his hips in different angles hoping to find that one spot he knew would send the little blonde over the edge. Kira let out a howl as he felt Iba brush against something inside of him. The cry encouraged Iba the keep hitting that area and soon he had the ghost gasping in air he did not need and moaning out his name. He could feel his end approaching and by the sounds and sight the blond was making so was the blonde's, with a growl he palmed the ghost's neglected erection earning more sweet sounds from Kira's mouth.

"Tetsuzaemon!" Kira screamed as he came, his lower muscles clamping down around his partners length forcing Iba to come. With a growl he bit down on the ghosts shoulder not knowing if he would leave a mark or not but hoping he would.

They both laid there panting as they rode out their orgasms. Iba pushed himself up so he was not completely lying on Kira.

"Tetsuzaemon, that was amazing..." Kira said his expression one of bliss, he just had to kiss him.

"You said it Izuru." He gently pulled out of the ghost and finally released his leg. The sensation felt weird to Kira but overall he did not mind one bit. Iba settled himself comfortably on the bed, immediately pulling the ghost into his arms. He was prepared to just stay like that and drift off to sleep with the blonde in his arms but Kira had another plan.

"Iba-san...Iba-san there is something I need to tell you..."Izuru drawled as he laid in Tetsuzaemon's arms."It's about the reason why I was so excited about today and seeing Sh-Shun..."

"Kira you don't need to tell me-"

"No I do this is important." He cut him off and leaned up so he was looking down on the bigger man. "The reason why I was so excited about today was...was so I could say good bye to him and our past. You see I-I wanted to move on and start something new with someone else, you." He turned away a blush staining his face redder than ever.

Tetsuzaemon was stunned. "You...mean...you wanted to...with me?"

The blonde nodded still looking away. "I don't know how far or how long we can take this...but I am willing to try with you."

Christmas had come early for the werewolf. The smile on his face threatened to slip his face in two, he pulled the ghost back to his chest and ravaged his mouth in another fierce kiss.

"Izuru you have no idea how happy you telling me that makes me. And I promise I will take this for as long as we can so don't worry about it. Now get some rest after a day like today you need it." Kira's drowsy face nodded and gently laid himself back on his chest, blue eyes closed.

The sight made him wrap his arms around the blonde tighter. He knew that he had to tell Renji about what he had learned today and he also knew that he was gonna bug him relentlessly about this, but that can wait for tomorrow because right now he just wanted to lay there in bliss and the remains of the sweet afterglow.

The werewolf was awakened to the sweet smell of cooking bacon he relaxed taking in a big whiff. He secondly noted the small weight of someone in his arms, his eyes shot open as the memories of yesterday hit him like a freight train.

He was trapped in a whirlwind of emotions at that moment and so caught up that he almost missed the scent of Renji coming from downstairs. He needed to tell him about Kira. He gently edged his way from underneath the sleeping blonde, successfully with out waking him. He grabbed his shades and pants putting them on as he left his room.

He quietly walked away from his room until he reached the stairs, he took them two at a time jerking himself toward the direction of the kitchen not giving any attention to his surroundings. He immediately saw Renji at the stove skillet in hand looking at him with a grin.

"Hey Iba, you look like you had a good night." Renji said in regard to his messy hair, shirtless and gasping appearance. "Man you are never gonna believ-"

"Izuru was murdered by our landlord!" He gasped out, shocking Renji making him drop the skillet. "He pushed him down the stairs! It wasn't an accident and I-"

"Who was the one who killed Kira-san?" A gruff voice asked behind Tetsuzaemon starting him. He turned and saw the large frame of their alpha Komamura Sajin standing in their hallway and if he looked just past him Iba would have seen Hisagi Shuuhei, Madarame Ikkaku and Ayasegawa Yumichika, the other members of the pack, lounging around his living room watching the conversation with expectant looks.

Well damn, this was gonna be a rough morning.

That's the end of my second story. Please tell me what you think.
