Okay, here's Chapter 2! The more humorous part of the story will start in the next chapter! -sighs- I have chapters 1-12 written by hand, so I need to type them all up! But don't worry, I'll post the chapters as I finish typing them!
Warnings: Light Yaoi.
Renji roamed the hallways of the Kuchiki house. This was his first time here that he didn't have to stay in one place. He was eager to see the house Byakuya and Rukia lived in. He turned corners and opened doors, hoping to learn every nook and cranny of the house as soon as possible.
Byakuya invited Renji to stay for as long as he wanted to, so he wants to know as much of the house, no mansion, as possible. Renji paced quickly through the hallways, turning this into a personal race. He walked past Rukia and Ichigo, not noticing them. "What the hell?" Ichigo asked, "What's he doing here?!" Rukia looked at Ichigo, "Pipe down! Byakuya invited him to stay!" "Great," Ichigo pouted.
Renji opened the door to Byakuya's room. He flung the door open, looking around, "Byakuya-taicho?" he asked, walking in. He heard running water from the room next to him, "So… He's taking a shower…." Renji mumbled. His face turned red at the thought of Byakuya, his Captain, in the shower. He shook his head to try and get the image out of his head, but to no prevail. The image of Byakuya stayed in his head, that rare grin on his face. The image called his name in a playful voice, but slowly changed to his usual cold voice. By the fourth "Renji," he snapped out of his daydream to realize Byakuya was standing in the doorway with only a towel around his waist. Renji turned red at the sight, "Y-yes, Byakuya-taicho?" he asked, trying to hide his embarrassment. Byakuya walked in, closing the door behind himself and locking the door, "Why are you in my room?" he asked, sitting on the bed. "I wanted to tell you that I memorized the layout of the house," Renji said, unable to move his eyes from Byakuya.
Byakuya stared back at Renji after realizing he was staring at him. Renji blinked and shook his head, "I-I'm sorry, Byakuya-taicho!" Byakuya grinned and signaled with his hand for Renji to come closer. Renji was shaky as he walked closer to his Captain. As soon as he was close enough, Byakuya wrapped his arms around Renji's waist and pulled him closer. "Renji…" Byakuya mumbled, his voice no longer icy-cold, but warm and… Loving? This isn't happening. This is not my Captain… Is it? Renji told himself. He looked down at his Captain.
Byakuya no longer looked like he was hiding his emotions behind a cold face. He looked like he was longing for something… Or someone. Like if he was locked in a dark room for years with no one to talk to. But that was his Captain. Cold, Quiet, and locked away in his own mind. Byakuya looked up at Renji, "Renji, I…" He looked back down. "What is it, Byakuya-taicho?" Renji asked, sitting next to Byakuya. Byakuya leaned against Renji, wrapped an arm around his waist, "I…. I think I…" Renji looked down at Byakuya, "You can tell me... Only if you want too."
Byakuya looked up at Renji, his usually cold eyes looked alone and longing. He pulled Renji closer, "Renji, I lo-"He was interrupted by Rukia calling for him. Byakuya stood up, looking at Renji, his face returning to its usual cold gaze, "If you excuse me, I need to get ready, Renji-fukutaicho. We'll continue this conversation later." Renji stood up, nodding, "See-ya later, Byakuya-taicho," he said, leaving.
