Shiro was curled up in Ichigo's bed, cuddling with his mate. They had been like this for over an hour because Shiro missed Ichigo more than he would say. Ichigo hadn't minded one bit. Right now his head was tucked under Shiro's chin, his face buried into the Demon's neck as they curled up under the blankets that Shiro had pulled over their heads. Ichigo had managed to grab Yuki about two hours before Shiro had gotten all clingy on him. The little boy was tucked between the two of them, a thumb in his mouth as he clung to Shiro's middle. "I love both of you" Shiro purred, much like a cat purr.
Ichigo smiled a little. "I love you.." He murmured with a blush. Shiro kissed Ichigo's nose and smiled. "...Shi, we need to get up. For one, I need to feed Yuki." Ichigo sighed with a smile, Yuki shifting slightly and looking up at the mention of food, even though he really didn't like most of what they had.
"Okay" Shiro sighed, shifting to let Ichigo get up. He slid out of bed as well. Ichigo picked Yuki up and smiled slightly when Shiro slipped an arm around his waist, before leading him out of the room and into the kitchen, where Grimmjow was. "Hey" Grimmjow waved, making breakfast for everyone. "I went and got different baby food last night" he added.
"Morning. ...What kind?" Ichigo asked, slipping out Of Shiro's grip to put Yuki in the highchair.
"Mixture of fruits" Grimmjow replied, handing Ichigo the baby food, giving Ichigo a kiss on the forehead as well. Shiro made a pouting face but made no move to stop it. "It was a friendly thing, not a love thing" he thought as he gritted his teeth.
"..He does like fruit.." Ichigo murmured, not giving a second thought to the kiss. It was normal. He opened the food, and Yuki looked at it curiously.
Grimmjow nodded, turning back to the breakfast. Shiro looked at Ichigo and then at Yuki. "Can I feed him?" he asked.
Ichigo looked over at him. "...You can try." He sighed, handing the jar over to Shiro.
Shiro took the jar. "I want you to eat this food okay? Either you can eat it from the spoon or I can pour it down your throat…your choice" Shiro chirped, offering Yuki a spoonful of the babyfood.
Ichigo scowled a little. "Be nice, he's just a baby." He huffed. Yuki scowled at him, turning his head in refusal. Shiro stopped for a moment before smiling again. "It's fruit…your momma's a fruit and you like him…Grimmjow is a fruit too and you like him" Shiro tried again.
Yuki pouted a little before opening his mouth. Ichigo smiled slightly, seeing Grimmjow's scowl and that Shiro had gotten Yuki to try the food. Shiro popped the spoon in his mouth with a smile. "Like it?" he asked. Yuki actually smiled around the baby spoon in his mouth before pulling away and swallowing. "...Grimm, I think you found one thing he likes." Ichigo said, his smile much bigger now.
"I will buy more of this kind then" Grimmjow sighed, smiling slightly.
Ichigo smiled at him before letting out a breath of relief. "Finally..." He murmured, leaning on Shiro a little. By now Yuki was happily taking the spoonfuls of fruit-mush that they called baby food. "...Wait, we forgot his meds." Ichigo said, and hurried off to the cabinets. He pulled out a white bottle of pills.
"What are the meds for?" Shiro asked.
Ichigo looked away for a moment. "...HIV." He said, before opening the bottle. "Um, while I was uh, pregnant with him, I had gotten hurt and needed a blood transfusion... ... Apparently I was immune to it... Yuki, however, was not." He sighed.
Shiro tilted his head to the side with a "Huh?".
"HIV is a virus…which turns to AIDS…it attacks the immune system…not a good disease" Grimmjow explained.
"Oh" Shiro murmured sadly.
Ichigo handed Shiro a pill. "...put it in the baby food but don't crush it.. just make sure he gets it." He sighed.
Shiro did as he was told, continuing to feed Yuki. Ichigo eyed the bandages covering Yuki's cheek where Pantera had clawed him. "...I need to change those.." He murmured, walking over to the sink and opening the drawer underneath it to get the first aid kit.
"I doubt there are any markings left now Ichi" Shiro shrugged.
"...What do you mean?" The orangette asked, looking at Shiro curiously.
"Demons heal fast…half demon heal pretty fast as well" Shiro replied.
"...That... he could have a chance... of living... If that's true..." Ichigo murmured, looking down at the first aid kit in his hands.
"I am pretty sure he had a chance anyway…this is just a better one right?" Shiro responded.
"...I mean the HIV... They might not kill him..." Ichigo said, his grip tightening a little as he gritted his teeth.
"Half Demons don't normally get HUMAN virus anyway…once he gets older it will go away" Shiro replied.
"...It will?" Ichigo asked softly. Yuki started to whine because he wasn't getting anymore food. Shiro started to feed him again. "From my previous knowledge yeah it will" Shiro replied.
"...What do you mean previous? ...Shiro, this affects his immune system... It's not like a cold..." Ichigo said, now looking at him. He glanced over at Grimmjow, whom was watching, oddly quiet.
Shiro grew quiet. "I know it's not a cold…my answer is a long one…" he muttered, focusing on feeding Yuki.
"...Tell me. I need to know whether he'll survive this or not..." Ichigo said softly, now looking at Shiro.
"He will survive this…one he is part demon and two…he is just as stubborn as you can be" Shiro replied.
"...Shi..." Ichigo sighed, walking over to Shiro and hugging him. Shiro hugged back, still feeding Yuki. After a moment Yuki started to refuse the food. Shiro pulled Yuki into their family hug thingy. Yuki coughed a little before snuggling into their arms. Shiro petted Yuki's head and kissed Ichigo's nose. The orangette nuzzled Shiro's cheek, pulling Yuki up a little so he could kiss the boy's forehead. Grimmjow finished making breakfast, setting it out on the table with a sigh. Ichigo managed to detach himself from Shiro so he could sit down to eat. He sat next to Grimmjow like he normally did, it was a normal thing now, in a way a habit, so he didn't give it a second thought. Shiro sat on the other side of Ichigo, Yuki in his lap. "...Shiro? I want to know... what have you been doing all of this time?" Ichigo asked after a moment, watching the demon eat.
The albino coughed on his food. "What!" he asked, blinking.
"I mean.. what were you doing all of this time?" Ichigo asked, wondering why the hell the demon was freaking out about a simple question.
"Well not that much" Shiro coughed.
"...Shiro." Ichigo said, staring at him. He knew the demon was hiding something.
"Mostly traveled…trying to learn about this time" Shiro added.
"...That's all?" Ichigo wondered, looking at him curiously.
"In a nutshell" Shiro nodded.
"..." Ichigo sighed a little before taking a bite of his food. Shiro sighed, kissing Ichigo's cheek before returning to his own food. Ichigo rubbed his cheek were Shiro had kissed him, sticky syrup sticking to his cheek from the demon's lips. He smiled a little though. Shiro was still a messy eater. He leaned over, kissing Shiro on the lips this time, pulling away before the other could do anything, a chuckle leaving his lips. Shiro pouted. He had the sudden urge to give Yuki to Grimmjow and jump Ichigo, fucking him till he couldn't even remember his name. Ichigo smiled, leaning over and kissing Shiro's cheek to get him to stop pouting. He was really happy that Shiro had come back. His depression had started to go away when Shiro had said he would stay and it was just getting better. Shiro grinned, leaning over and nuzzling his mate's neck. Ichigo chuckled, pushing the other gently away. "Not now." He said quietly. Shiro pouted again but agreed silently. "...But we can later..." Ichigo trailed off in a whisper as he stared down at his food like it was the most interesting thing in the world.
"I will watch Yuki" Grimmjow stated.
The orangette looked up at Grimmjow, a blush finding its way onto his cheeks. Grimmjow forced a smile. Shiro looked between the two, a slight frown marring his cheeks. "You don't have to..." Ichigo trailed off again, before swallowing and looking back down.
"I want to watch him…it's fine Ichi" Grimmjow replied.
"O-okay I guess..." The orangette murmured, looking a little hurt. He knew he was hurting Grimmjow and he hated it.
Shiro bit his lip, trying to think of something to help this situation. Ichigo sighed, picking up his fork and eating slowly. He stayed silent.
Grimmjow was in the living room with Yuki. Shiro and Ichigo were sleeping last time he checked, which was about an hour ago. "Dada..." Yuki murmured from the play pin, staring over at Grimmjow.
One hand was pressed up against the mesh, see through walls and the other clamped onto the arm of a brown plush bear. Grimmjow looked at Yuki, smiling slightly. He got up from his seat and crouched next to the play pin walls. "Yeah?" he asked. "Dada!" The little boy repeated, reaching up for Grimmjow to be picked up. Grimmjow picked up the snowy haired child with a small smile. Yuki giggled and nuzzled Grimmjow's chest, before looking up at Grimmjow cutely through his bangs. Grimmjow smile grew as he started to tickle the child Yuki started to screech in laughter as he wiggled around. "Dada!" He squawked repeatedly, a bright, nearly toothless smile on his face as he was tickled. Shiro came in, freezing when he saw Grimmjow and Yuki. When the tickling finally stopped, Yuki wrapped both of his tiny hands around Grimmjow's thumb, giggling when the man nuzzled his hair. "Dada..." He murmured, that bright smile still on his face. Shiro's heart frozen and he backed out of the room silently. When Shiro walked back into Ichigo's bedroom, the orangette frowned from the bed. He was curled up in a mass of blankets and pillows, where he and Shiro had been for a while after they had some, well, protected fun. Shiro looked almost heartbroken. "...You okay?" He asked softly, untangling an arm from the blanket covering him to pat on the spot next to him in the nest-like structure.
Shiro crawled into it, pulling Ichigo into a hug. "Yuki…he doesn't like me" Shiro sniffed, nuzzling Ichigo's head.
"Don't say that, of course he does. He wouldn't let you touch him if he didn't. You're his father, and I bet he can tell that you are." Ichigo said, kissing him softly before pulling away.
Shiro didn't cheer up. "…He doesn't…he thinks Grimmjow is" Shiro murmured.
"That's not..." Ichigo murmured before trailing off. He sighed, resting his head on Shiro's chest. "He's... just been around him longer... that's all." He said in an attempt to cheer the other up. He didn't like how sad the other looked. It didn't fit the demon.
"So he doesn't like me cuz I left you…" Shiro asked softly.
"N-no! That's not true..." Ichigo said, lifting his head to look up at Shiro with wide eyes. He reached a hand up to run through Shiro's hair. "…" Shiro went silent, eyes staring at the sheets. "Shi..." Ichigo murmured, leaning up. "...Shi." He said again when the other didn't respond. Shiro turned away from Ichigo, laying down. "I…I just need some sleep I guess" he muttered. "...Okay.." Ichigo sighed, turning on his side so his back was to the other. After a moment he scooted over, so their backs were pressed against each other. Shiro turned, hugging Ichigo to his chest, spooning his mate. Ichigo sighed in content. He just had to find a way to make Shiro happy again.
