Chapter Five: You set my soul alive.

Ulquiorra sat down on a park bench in the early Sunday morning, feeling the breeze and breathing in the fresh air, he stuck his hands in his pockets, which he noticed he had started a habit of recently.

Ulquiorra sat in peace for some time, but it ended when his brother -Coyote Starrk- appeared, They had agreed to meet at the park and he was an hour late the least "Sorry I fell asleep underneath a tree" He told Ulquiorra like he knew what he was thinking.

Starrk walked over to the bench and sat down, he turned his tired looking eyes on Ulquiorra, Ulquiorra nodded looking indifferent. Starrk started "So Ulquiorra, hows the little mouse?".

"Perfectly adiquite" Ulquiorra replied.

"-Yawn- That's good, Aizen will be happy to hear that...Oh um Aizen wanted me to tell you that he was thinking about taking the girl in" Starrk told Ulquiorra.

Ulquiorra nodded.

"Well this meeting was pointless, why couldn't dad have just called you?" Starrk said exasperated.

"Perhaps Aizen-Sama thought that we needed to see our siblings" Ulquiorra stated.

"Waste of time if I say" Starrk complained.

Uquiorra nodded before standing up "Goodbye" He said before making his way out of the park, Starrk nodded before slinking down on the bench and closing his eyes.

Ulquiorra was about to exit when somebody ran into him "Eeep Sorry sir" A voice spoke. Ulquiorra looked down to find that it was Orihime "You should be more careful Woman" He told her, but he wasn't that irritated.

Orihime looked up at the Woman part and smiled when she saw that it was Ulquiorra -Who still had his arms parshally wrapped around her- She hugged him and said "Hi Ulquiorra, sorry that I ran into you!".

Ulquiorra -who was shocked that she was hugging him- brushed the comment off with a shrug, he was about to say something when more voices called out "Orihime wait up I-Wait why does this guy have his arms around you!", Orihime's eyes widened and she stepped away from Ulquiorra -Who had a brief thought about not letting her go, but he decided against it last minute-.

"Oh Tatsuki this is Ulquiorra!" Orihime said smiling. Tatsuki stopped short when she saw Orihime smile so sincerely since before her brother passed on, but she was still suspicious of the guy so she kept glaring at him.

Tatsuki got more irritated when the guy gave her an indifferent look and started to ignore her, suddenly Rukia walked up "There you guys are, why didn't you wait for-" She started to say, but saw that Tatsuki was glaring at that Schiffer guy and Orihime was trying to defuse the fumes...

Rukia sweat dropped and came up with a plan "Hey Orihime, why don't you get your friend to join us?" She asked, looking sweet and innocent. Ulquiorra was immediately weary and was starting to inch away.

"Huh good idea Rukia!" Orihime said and turned her cute puppy like eyes on Ulquiorra.

"Were having a picnic, want to join us?!" She asked lifting up a basket that Ulquiorra had barely noticed before.

Ulquiorra was about to say no, but he didn't have anything better to do and he was starting to enjoy the naive little females company "I accept woman" Ulquiorra told her in a monotone that gave the impression that he couldn't care one bit.

Tatsuki glared, Rukia smirked and Orihime smiled happily.

The girls skipped deeper into the park and Ulquiorra trailed behind, a look of slight boredom gracing his face, the girls suddenly stopped under a tree and laid a blanket down, the ground was still a little damp from all the rain it had received yesterday.

The girls sat down and unloaded the basket, while Ulquiorra went and leaned up against the tree they were under, Orihime noticed this and tried to get Ulquiorra to sit, but he declined the invite saying that he didn't want to partake in such nonsense, which made Tatsuki glare daggers at him.

Orihime handed him a pear with a smile, Ulquiorra didn't smile but his eyes showed everything, Orihime held her breath at all that was in them, They hadn't realized they were staring in eachothers eyes until Tatsuki cleared her throat, Orihime jumped and turned away, but Ulquiorra continued to stare at her. Tatsuki stood up and attempted to punch him, Ulquiorra grabbed her hand with ease and turned his stunning eyes on her.

Orihime and Rukia stood still breath held, Ulquiorra finally spoke "Enough of that Trash, you can not strike me" He then pushed her hand away from himself and took a bite of pear. Tatsuki was dumbstruck and mad at the same time, she didn't know what to do so she just sat back down, Rukia and Orihime looked at each other, before laughing.

The picnic continued on for a while, with the girls talking and laughing and Ulquiorra leaning against the tree eating his pear and relaxing, he wasn't surprised when Starrk stumbled out of the woods and in the clearing the wear eating in.

Starrk took one look at Ulquiorra and the girls, before laughing, The girls turned to look at him, Starrk continued to laugh, when he caught his breath he turned to Ulquiorra and said "Wow Ulquiorra I didn't know you liked playing house" Starrk smirked, when Ulquiorra gave him a look that said "What Ever Trash".

"You know Ulquiorra?"Orihime asked smiling.

"Yeah I do, he's my brother" Starrk smirked.

"Really, I didn't know Ulquiorra has siblings" Orihime said looking at Ulquiorra-Who was looking as indifferent as ever-.

"Yeah well we aren't crazy about each other" Starrk told her.

Rukia and Tatsuki just watched as the conversation continued.

"Oh..." Orihime looked like she was thinking deeply about this info.

"Well I'll be going"He told Orihime, before stumbling back into the forest. Ulquiorra wanted to roll his eyes.

Orihime looked at Ulquiorra and smiled.

Ulquirra was walking Orihime home, she skipped around him and started walking back wards "Woman your going to tri-" He was cut off, when Orihime tripped. Ulquiorra quickly grabbed Orihimes hand and tugged, so she would regain balance, she wobbled but stayed on two feet "Oops" She smiled and continued to walk to the apartment, Ulquiorra rolled his eyes, he couldn't help it.

At the door, Ulquiorra nodded and started to walk away, but was stopped when Orihime hugged him "Thank you Ulquiorra" she said, before she let go and went in her apartment.

Ulquiorra just stood at her stoop for a minute, staring at where her figure disappeared to, before walking back to his home.
