***Byakuya Kuchiki Bleach***
Kagome gave a sigh as she sat under a cherry tree to try and relax she was tired of the meetings she had to sit in on since she had been adopted by the head captain Yamamoto as his granddaughter. She still didn't understand why he would do such a thing, don't get her wrong she knew it had to with her being the Shikon no Miko. Since she was adopted she had taken classes which they soon figured out that she didn't need after being taught by Sesshomaru when she had been in the past.
Kagome leaned her head back and watched the petals fall and hoped that her family was doing fine even after everything that had happened in the past it wasn't a demon that killed her it was getting hit by a car. Souta had been chasing his soccer ball and some guy was speeding and ran a stop sign Kagome relying on skills from her journey quickly grabbed Souta and pushed him out of the way only to take the hit herself she had died on impact.
Kagome gave a shake of her head to pull herself from those thoughts and decided she was going to take a walk and hopefully find Rangiku and see how things in the mortal world was doing. Lost in her thoughts Kagome didn't see the person standing in front of her till she hit them and almost fell only to be caught. She looked up and couldn't help but give a slight blush when she saw that it was Byakuya Kuchiki captain of the sixth squad.
She had no problem with the captain but in a way he reminded her of Sesshomaru before they become friends with him and learned everything she knew from him. She had to admit the captain was handsome and she felt sorry for him because she had heard of his past and what happened to his wife and knew that even after all this time he still loved her. Kagome couldn't help but wish that she had, had a love like that all she had gotten was pain and heartache from the one she thought she was meant to be with. Taking a step back she looked at the captain and gave him a small smile and nodded her head.
"Thank you Captain Kuchiki I am sorry if I was in your way." She said before bowing her head again and walking around him and heading away from him on her way back to the meetings she needed to go to.
Byakuya couldn't help but look after the tiny woman who had just left him standing there, he would admit to no one that he had started to watch her. He knew who she was the powerful Shikon no Miko in life and in death, he remembered hearing all about her years ago when everything had happened he wasn't yet head of his family or even a captain yet but he remembered the stories.
The stories always told of a woman both beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside and looking at her he had to agree. She was everything he had imaged her to be when he was younger but more so much more, she held herself with pride but was humble never had an unkind word to say to anyone always willing to help anyone and forgave so easily. He remembered when she had first come here like it was yesterday.
Flashback
They were holding a meeting between all the squads when suddenly a blue flame appeared in the middle of the room right in front of the head captain. Everyone had already drew their swords and was getting ready to attack when the flames disappeared and a woman was standing there gasping with a sword strapped to her back and was looking around in panic before looking at them.
"Where am I? Where is Souta? How did I get here? Who are you?" She said while holding herself relaxed but all in the room knew that she could fight by the reaction she was giving with her body ready to move if any of them moved.
"You are in the Sosaeti, I do not know a Souta, you have to be dead to appear like you have but none have ever appeared like you did, and I am the Head Captain Yamamoto Genryusai. Now will you tell us who you are?" He said while not moving from his seat.
"I am Kagome Higurashi." She said which made almost everyone in the room gasp.
"Higurashi as in the Higurashi that was the Shikon no MIko?" one of the captains asked they all watched as she changed in an instant and was before Captain Kurotsuchi with the blade against his throat and spoke in a cold voice.
"How do you know that none should know that my name has vanished from history none should know that." She said coldly while pressing closer to his thought drawing a thin line of blood and shocking all in the room till the Head Captain spoke.
"We are soul reapers we are dead many in this where reaping the souls from the Edo time period while time has change in the land of the living time is slow here so withdraw your sword." The Head Captain said while looking at her and watching as she withdrew her blade and with skill not many the captains had seen sheathed her blade before turning and walking back to where she once stood.
End Flashback
It was after that, that she was named the granddaughter of the head captain and trained as a reaper what surprised many was how quickly she learned and the skill she held even before the training she easily and quickly graduated top of her class but was still not in a squad as of yet.
Byakuya did feel guilty as he watched her leave as he thought of his late wife but he had spoken to Rukia about how she would feel if he decided to try and find someone. He was surprised by how happy Rukia was, she had then told him that she didn't think her sister would have wanted him to be alone and would have wanted him to find love again. She then gave her blessing and told him if he wanted any help with anything she would help him no matter what.
He gave a sigh after that he decided he would speak to the head captain about asking to court Kagome and if possible for her hand in marriage.
Kagome gave a sigh as she listened to talking and wondered why she needed to sit in on this it wasn't anything she hadn't heard before and let her thoughts drift wondering when she was going to be allowed to join a squad. She was quickly pulled from her thoughts when one of the men said something that actually pertained to her.
"Head Captain there has been many families wishing for your adopted granddaughter's hand and they are from proud families some of the highest families in the Soul Society. We was wondering which family you was going to allow her to marry into?"
Kagome saw red when she heard this and looked at Yamamoto and prayed he didn't agree to this and saw him stroking his bread gently before he answered.
"Has any of the men come forward and asked her for her hand in marriage?" He asked not even bothering to open his eyes and Kagome couldn't help but smirk since the answer was no none had come to her and asked or even spoken to her. She knew what they wanted like many before like when she was traveling in the past they wanted her power and what titles came with it this was no different.
"N-No, sir n-none have."
"Then unless someone she wishes to marry comes forth and ask her for her hand then this is not a matter to bring before me again." He said while open his eyes and glaring at the men in front of him before getting up and walking out with Kagome following him along with his lieutenant. Once outside he stopped and looked at some of the sakura trees before speaking.
"Kagome I know you wish to join the others in a squad and I have been asked many times by the other captains wondering when you would be placed. I have been wondering for some time where would be best that you go since you have the ability to be great in any of them. Is there one you favor over the others?" Yamamoto asked while still looking at the trees.
Kagome gave a sigh as she looked at the trees along with him it wasn't that thought one squad was better than the other she just couldn't pick one because she had friends in many different squads.
"Honestly sir I don't have a squad in mind as you know I have friends in different squads and I don't play favorites between my friends." Kagome said while turning and looking at him.
"Very well the next captain who asks to have the on their squad is going to be your captain and squad." He said while turning and looking at her.
"Really, I am going to be put in one of the squads and a loud to fight?" She asked hoping he wasn't pulling her leg and when he nodded she grinned and wrapped her arms around him and gave a small squeal.
"Thank you jiji!" Kagome said before turning and hurry away only to pause when he spoke.
"Kagome, where are you going?" Yamamoto asked while turning his head and looking at her.
"I have to go tell Rukia, Rangiku, Yachiru, and the others." Kagome said with a smile before turning and hurrying away.
Byakuya was walking toward the Head Captain's area when he heard footsteps and saw Kagome hurrying toward him he stopped and looked at her and couldn't help but want her to be hurrying toward him even though he knew she wasn't.
"Oh, Captain Kuchiki hello again are you on your way to see Jiji?" Kagome asked with a bright smile on her face.
"Hm, yes I am on my way to speak to him. Where are you off to in such a hurry?" Byakuya asked while secretly enjoying the smile she was giving him and how bright it made her eyes.
"Oh, I am on my way to tell the girls that Jiji finally agreed to let me join a squad so I have to hurry and tell them." Kagome said while smiling and shocking was that the head captain was finally letting her join a squad. He knew he needed to speak to the head captain he couldn't lose her, if she was in his squad it would make it easier to see her and spend time with her.
"Um, excuse me Captain I must be going." Kagome said as she went to move away from him only to be stopped when he grabbed her hand.
"Higurashi which squad did he put you in?" He asked while looking at her in the eyes and watching as she blushed and couldn't help but wonder how far it went down.
Kagome blushed as she looked up at the Captain and had to stop the quickening of her heart she knew falling for this man would break her. She already felt the pain of loving one man who loved the past more that the present or the future she wouldn't do that. She had to keep reminding herself as she looked up at the handsome captain and again for a quick moment she was jealous of a dead woman for having the love of someone so great.
"Um, he hasn't picked one yet but said the next captain to ask him would be the squad I would go to." Kagome said before blinking quickly as Captain Kuchiki suddenly disappeared and wondered where he went.
She couldn't help but sigh as she thought of Captain Kuchiki and truly wished someone could love her or that she could find love at all. Giving a shake of her head she pushed the thoughts away as she hurried to meet up with the girls.
Byakuya gave a sigh as he left the head captain's office after explaining to him why he wanted Kagome in his squad, he had to admit to the head captain that he had fallen in love with Kagome and was wanting her in his squad so he could get closer to her and hopefully get her to fall in love with him. After hearing this the head captain was quiet then nodded his head and accepted it. She was now a member of his squad and as his first sit only under him and Renji.
He quickly shunpoed to his squad and told a member to get his lieutenant to him and then told another to have a room prepared in his household. He arrived in his office and started getting the paperwork done when Renji arrived.
"You wanted to see me Captain?" He asked while looking at the Byakuya was still working only to stop and look at him.
"Yes, as off today we have a first seat and they will be arriving later so I want you to have everything ready for when they arrive." Byakuya said before looking back down and signing the last paper and setting it away.
"A first seat? Who?" Renji asked in surprise.
"Kagome Higurashi, she will be the first seat." Byakuya said while smiling on the inside.
Kagome was shocked as she walked back toward the first squad area at how quickly all her friends had left her after she told them about what Jiji had said about placing her in a squad. She knew they would be happy but didn't understand why they all looked at each other before shunpoing away as quick as they could.
Hearing noise she looked up and saw many of the captains talking to Jiji and wondered what was going on. She soon was spotted by the head captain and told to come over she looked at him as she stood beside him.
"As you all have probably already heard Kagome is going to be joining a squad but I have already placed her someone arrived not long after she left and asked for her to be placed in their squad and I have granted it." Yamamoto said before turning his head and looking at Kagome and speaking to her.
"You are now on the sixth squad under Captain Kuchiki and I would report to him now to see where you are placed within the squad." He said as the both ignored the mumbles from the other captains that Kuchiki had beaten them all.
Time skip
Kagome was walking down the hall enjoying the quietness while walking through the halls she couldn't help but blush as she thought of her captain.
Since she had joined the squad many months ago her captain as done so much to keep her near him at any giving time even getting her to help with paper work and letting her work at his desk so she would have to sit beside of him. On many instances he had reached out and graced his fingers against any skin he could find.
She bite her lip and bit back a groan when she thought back, she had braided her hair to hang over one shoulder and exposed the other side. Byakuya appeared behind her and leaned into she could feel his hot breath on her neck as he used his fingers to caressing against her neck she had all but moaned at the feel of them.
Giving a sigh she pulled herself together before knocking on the door hoping that she could control herself and stopping her from throwing herself at her captain. She looked back at the door and opened when Byakuya said enter taking a breath she walked inside before shutting the door and looking at the man who had won her heart and teased her body by just being near him.
Byakuya looked up at the woman he had fallen in love and was going to make his wife. He had spent the last few months testing the waters to see how she would respond to him. And judging by how she responded to him he couldn't help but smirk she wanted him as much as he wanted her. Seeing her standing there looking at him and he saw a light blush across her nose as she looked at him, he knew that today was the day.
Standing to his feet he moved around his desk and stood before it while never taking his eyes off of Kagome.
"Kagome came here." He said while looking at her.
Kagome was nervous but walked forward and stood a little bit away from her captain only to give an eep when he reached out quickly and grabbed her wrist and pulled her close while wrapping his other arm around her waist. Kagome didn't know what was going on and prayed that this wasn't a dream because if it was she would never wake from it.
C..Captain!?" She stuttered as she looked at the man she loved she felt him release her wrist only to feel his hand thrust into her hair and tilt her head back. Before she could say anything his lips were covering hers and at first her eyes widened before closing, she reached up and grabbed his robe in one hand while the other wound up around the back of his back.
Byakuya knew this woman in his arms was never leaving his arms or his side not after this it had taken too long to get her here and now she would never leave. Pulling back from the kiss he felt pride when he saw the look on her face the lite blush, slightly swollen lips from his kiss, and a soft glazed look in her eyes when she looked at him.
"Kagome I love you, I have for some time now marry me?" He said while looking at her and hoping she wouldn't regret him.
Kagome had to wait for her mind to catch up with her and her eyes widened when she realized what he had just said to her and couldn't stop the tears from coming to her eyes.
"Yes, yes I love you yes I will marry you Byakuya!" Kagome said smiling before gasping and kissing him back when he leaned down and took her lips in a kiss again.
Byakuya couldn't believe it he once thought he would never love again but now he had someone that loved him just for him and wanted to stand by his side and like his earlier thoughts he was never letting her go.
