Bringing Home Babies
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters of this story. However the plot is mine.
Well, this title should rock your brain a little:] anyway, this fiction is dedicated to all those fans who wished that Byakuaya and Hisana had children :}
I thought Byakuaya would be easy to write, who the hell was I fooling (Answer: Nobody but my self, obviously;)
Anywho, I thank you very much for your wonderful reviews, at least now I can get some people off my back(sighs...)
*****
He has done a thoroughly check of the main rooms of his mansion and still there was no sign of his ebony haired lover...
Maybe she is with her personal maid somewhere on the grounds that he had not check, example the koi pond , besides it is not as if she could possibly leave the grounds to an unknown destination, he thought while walking through the main entrance for the third time. This morning had started out bad, first he had to see the other "Byakuyas' in his home and second he had to have an all out war with them.
This day was definitely not going good and he had promised Hisana that he would be his best today. However, it seems as if his best was not going to surface today, he thought as he walked along the hallway. If he hadn't been focus enough, then maybe he would have missed the harsh whispering of two persons.
"You have to tell him" he heard a feminine voice say, but it was more like pleading. His curiosity always got the better of him when he was younger, but this is, after all his house, so why then should he not be allowed to hear this.
"What is it?" he had asked when he saw Hisana's maid without her and the grounds man Elnod and he had observed their nervous and fidgeting bodies as they heard him.
"Milord, Lady Kuchiki has left the premises to an unknown location and says she will be back shortly" he heard the man stuttered out a few minutes after.
He didn't remember answering, but he knew he had walked away from them making a vow as he walked to the dining room.
'Curiosity kills the cat..." he thought angrily as he reached the shoji door, "and this Byakuya refuses to be the cat anymore'
****
"Milord, where is your Lady?" the youngest of the elders began while looking at the three empty seats. He had entered the room without even acknowledging anyone; and no one had been brave enough to question him, so why did this one have to.
He turned to face the elder and gave him the best glare he could muster up, and to his dismay another elder began, except that he disliked him the most.
"Milord, do we have to wait on your wife to arrive because it seems as if she will not be here anytime soon" Elder Kuriki Maki said after thirty minutes of waiting at the table for food to be served.
"Listen Kurika Maki, I know of a rule where we sit and wait for all the diners to arrive before we begin serving. However, if you're that hungry, you could just go to the kitchen and asked for food, that is if they don't rip you apart first..." he said while looking at the window.
He watches the elder gulped before settling comfortably on the mat, before he heard a muffled giggle coming from behind him. He didn't have to turn around to know who had laughed; it was definitely Hisana's maid.
"Milord, indeed that is the rule, but it is over an hour since lunch should have been served, so I believe it is time to breech it..." an elderly woman suggested.
Without turning to face her, Byakuya simply commanded,
"Begin serving lunch"
The servants nodded before moving to the table with the various food items. He continued to stare out the window as the servants went about their duties. Normally, he wouldn't have done this, but maybe eating would calm him down for he was very angry at the moment.
After several minutes of eating in silence, the sounds of a carriage arriving was heard by everyone in the room. The elders and servants looked in their lord direction and surprisingly he hadn't removed his attention from his meal.
"Psst...Elnod...' Suki whispered harshly while passing him. The servant after hearing his name rolled his eyes before bowing to the elder and going to the table with the sake and other refreshments.
"What do you want now?" he whispered while pouring out some water from the jug.
"Hisana-san-" she began before he nudged her side.
"What did I do now" she enquired through gritted teeth,
"Do not use the Lady's name here, even though you are a close friend to her. Besides, Lord Kuchiki is furious about his wife lack of punctuality and leaving the premises"
"I have recognized that, but she is here and I being her personal maid need to attend to her" she replied while pouring warm sake into the cups.
"Fine, I will take care of here while you assist her, but you better hurry up, I don't know when our lord is going to explode..."
*****
"Lady Kuchiki, we have arrived' she heard the voice of a man say. Blinking a couple times, she hoisted herself into a seated position to peer through the window.
"Lunch is about to begin soon" she muttered quietly, before pulling out the black band out of her hair and scratching the spot.
"My lady, I am afraid you're mistaken, lunch began an hour ago" he replied while slightly pulling on the reins and successfully stopping the horses.
"Oh really, dear Suikotsu" she replied while yawning.
"Yes indeed my lady, surely you have told Lord Kuchiki of your departure" he continued while stepping out of the carriage and moving to open the door.
"An hour ago..." she thought while shaking her head of the drowsiness she still felt until it had disappeared,
The door flew open in an instant.
"Did you say an hour has passed" she stuttered out, eyes wide as saucers.
"Yes, I have Lady Kuchiki, why are you so frightened...., oh no, I am going to lose my job" the servant stuttered out before raking a hand through his fiery red hair.
"You will not lose your job , for this is my entire fault, I will explain to my husband tonight" she stated as he supported her out the carriage.
"Lady Kuchiki, you do not know our lord" he answered before chuckling,
"I know he will be angry, but that doesn't give him reason to fire you" she replied a huge smile on her face as he led her to the door.
"I'll see to it that he doesn't involve you in this situation" she replied before hurrying down the hallway. The young coachman waited until she had disappeared around the corner before sighing loudly,
"Well, I better start packing"
*****
"Lady Kuchiki!" a familiar feminine voice shouted.
"Suki..." she muttered softly before smiling at the young girl coming to her. She watched as she stopped in front of her, hands firmly at her sides.
"What took you so long?" she enquired before continuing,
"Your husband is furious Hisana-san, do you know the shit I had to put up with this afternoon"
"I assume it was quite horrible" she replied before smiling brightly.
"You think this is funny..." Suki exclaimed while grasping her wrist.
"Of course not, I just-"
"Oh come on Hisana-san, let me get you dressed" Suki interrupted while hauling her gently down the hall.
*****
Where is she....?
The door opened suddenly interrupting his thoughts and in stepped Hisana in a white kimono decorated with a blue roses and a black obi, her hair was given a chance of the constrictions of hairpins and rubber bands, allowing her ebony tresses fall freely from her face to her waist. A part of him wanted to forget all she had done, but the other side badly wanted to reprimand her so he had no choice but to do so. He watched as she surveyed the room before taking a glass of water from the table and moving to sit....
Three seats away from him! He absolutely had no time for this bullshit.
Hisana's P.O.V
I moved slowly to the space between the elderly women, hoping, praying for a miracle that my husband-
"May I ask why you are going to sit there Hisana?" he enquired in an angry tone.
"My lord, I wish to sit here for lunch-"
"Hisana, your seat is here" he said in a commanding tone,
'My lord, it is quite far and I am very tired" she replied while signalling Suki to come with the huge blue cushion.
"Do you want me to put you at your seat..." he replied drily,
"No need my lord, my seat is right here" she replied coolly while facing him and to his horror, he watched as she took her seat between the women.
"Lady Kuchiki, you know-"Elder Maki began before he was silenced.
"Will you shut up" Byakuya stated while tapping his fingers on the table before continuing,
"You remind me of salt and pepper, those two ingredients have to be used everyday, just like you who insist that you must be involved in my problems, but listen well..., you're not my mother and you could never be my father, so can you please excuse your self from out of this..."
"Yes my lord" he replied before continuing his meal.
I simply smiled at the elder, and nearly laughed when he grimaced.
"Listen Hisana-"
"Lord Kuchiki, responsible spouses should take care of their 'problems' in secluded areas, instead of a dining room full of people. Therefore can you please stop behaving like-"
A glass broke in his direction and everyone looked up to see the pieces of glass dropping from his bloody hand.
"Suki, please get me another glass, it seems as if I was holding this one too tight" he replied coolly.
There was a brief moment of silence after the ordeal and Hisana had slowly removed her gaze from his and began watching the servants as they went about their duty and mouthed to each other.
"We are doomed" a red head to Elrod.
"We gonna die soon..." Elnod to Suki.
"Most definitely" she mouthed back.
Her mouth twitched slightly for a while as she tried her best not to laugh, but smiled brightly instead.
"Do you think it is funny to anger our lord, Lady Kuchiki" Elder Maki piped up. She removed her gaze from the servants to stare directly into cold blue ones.
"I didn't know it was a crime to smile dear elder" she replied smiling brightly as ever. She watched as he looked at her protruding stomach for a few seconds before grimacing again- and man, wasn't it a sight to see. She glimpsed over at the sake cup to see if he had finished drinking its contents, and indeed he had.
'The time has finally arrived' she thought before taking out the green phial and placing it on the table.
There was something definitely wrong about today, she just couldn't stop smiling at everyone she met even it was her enemies, oh well, she thought, and at least it hasn't come to an end.
She watched the next elder, who was ranked second on her despised list, nudged Elder Maki to look up,
"Why are you bothering him, allow him to take his time, we do not want to rush this..." she replied while taking a bite from the steamed fish,
After hearing her voice the elder looked up to see the green phial on the table, she watched as he gasped before his jaw slackened a few moments later, she was surprised though, that she hadn't jumped out of his clothes.
"What is the use of that phial Hisana?"
She got up and fluffed her cushion out the cushion before settling comfortably on it.
"Lord Kuchiki, I do not know at the moment, perhaps we should ask elder Maki to inform us since he was the one who gave Suki to slip it into my tea everyday"
"My lord, I have never seen this phial before, maybe Lady Kuchiki's personal maid-"
"The Lady's who...!" Suki interrupted while dropping the utensils.
"Listen Elder, your time has come, please do not involve me in your shit, you have been given me instructions when she was alive 55 years and now you're planning to do it again, claiming that Lord Kuchiki bought it for her, you're really a heartless b-"
"Excuse Suki, I bought what-"
"Rare nightshades and anaesthetics mixed with a tiny dose of other ingredients which successfully hides all trace of its contents. The anaesthetics are responsible for numbing a part of the body, and the rare nightshades deteriorate the area. The ultimate goal of the contents in this emerald phial is to rot the soul until it cannot reincarnate" Hisana replied coolly.
"Well, it seems as if you have dug up the medicinal books in the library, Lady Kuchiki" Elnod said.
"No, I took an easier root..." she replied eyes scanning the row of fidgeting elders.
"It is already over Lady Kuchiki!" Elder Maki shouted.
"Indeed Elder since you have already drank my tea", she replied before a smirk was planted on her face.
"Did you really think I would allow you to claim four lives elder, you must have been waiting for me to drink that tea so that you could begin toying with my life again" she continued before taking a sip of poison free tea.
"There is no cure for it I believe, so enjoy your life while you still can 'elder' because the older you are the more effective it is, so we can sit back and watch you waste away like I did the last-"
The servants at the right side of the huge dining room scampered off when they saw the dining table coming in their direction, and Lord Kuchiki standing with Senbonzakura unsheathed.
"Byakuya-sama, please do not do this" Hisana replied stepping into the way,
"Besides the blood wouldn't be suitable for our children" Hisana laughed nervously while tapping his shoulders.
"Our children..." he replied coldly before grasping her hands and taking them off his shoulders.
"Yes Byakuya-sama, our children..." she replied softly while looking into cold stormy eyes.
He walked pass here after.
"Elnod, I need all the elders in the meeting room now, Riya, please fetch Renji and Suki, bring Hisana to our room and make sure she doesn't leave it" Byakuya commanded before shunpoing to the Sereitei.
****
"Hisana, just forget it, he was, after all, very furious that you went away without telling him" Suki said while rubbing her eyes and pressing her ears on Hisana's stomach.
"I am not going to sleep with him, I am leaving with you when he arrives-"
"Hisana-san, they moved!" Suki replied chirpily.
"I felt it Suki, because they are inside of me" Hisana replied flatly.
Suki looked up at Hisana's face and smiled when she saw that she was pouting.
"You're still mad at him..."
"Obviously"
"What are you going to name them...?"
"The boys were supposed to be Byakuya's job, but since he doesn't want them, I'll find some names-"
She was silenced as Suki placed her index finder on her lips.
"I hear footsteps" she whispered.
"Well, it is about time he got home" Hisana whispered back.
"Please don't do it Hisana-san..." she replied while getting off the cosy bed to stand in a corner. The door slid open and in stepped Lord Kuchiki in all his stubbornness.
"You may go to bed, Suki" he said after stepping in and taking off his scarf.
"Suki, can you please wait at the door" she heard Hisana say, she stopped at the door, gave a quick prayer to kami before stepping out and sliding the door to a shut.
"Why should she wait-"he began after he walked closer to where she stood.
'Slap'
He had frozen to the spot after the contact and he watched as she moved closer to him,
"You didn't see that coming did you Lord Kuchiki, I am leaving this house..." she said flatly before trying to move. He grasped her wrist right then.
"You will do no such thing..."
"Really, I didn't know that you own me..."
"Hisana, why do you call me Lord Kuchiki instead of Byakuya..."
"Because, you don't deserve it anymore"
"Hisana, this is completely ridiculous..."
"Lord Kuchiki, Suki is waiting on me, can I leave now..."
He looked to the door then back to her,
"Hisana, why are you doing these things to me, I have only had you for two days and I you have been more careless than you did in the past!"
"My pregnancy is not a disease Lord Kuchiki,
"I never said it was, but you need to be more careful, you cannot just jump in the carriage without telling me anything Hisana, also your current weight is putting a lot of pressure on your body which means you shouldn't be walking a lot."
"Why are you telling me this Lord Kuchiki, it is not that you care for these children since you claim that they are not yours"
"Hisana, whatever I said in the dining room had no underlining meaning to it"
"Do you think I was born yesterday Lord Kuchiki...?" She shoved her hand into the pocket of her kimono and took out the white phial.
"This is the cure, Mayuri-sama gave it to me, do as you wish with it for I cannot believe you lied to me over foolishness. It is obvious now that you don't want to see me this way. You haven't kissed me or show me any affection since yesterday and now you want to lie to me and command me like some mangde dog! I am sick of this..." she said while walking past him.
"I will leave your mansion after I give birth Lord Kuchiki, so I would advise you to find your heirs somewhere else"
Sliding the door opened, she step out and left with Suki leaving a confused Byakuya to sleep alone again.

I wrote this chapter over three times, the last one being the best but, unfortunately I lost part of the info. So instead of rocking my brains, I decided to post this or else the third chapter would never go up:(
Chapter 4 will be up by tomorrow night or the following morning since the difficult part of the story is completed, please notify me of my mistakes.
N.B: Saya and Suki is the same person, but I was mixing up the names.
