Warnings: Language, Ichimaru's Grin, Crack Pairing.
"The Human's world is weird," Renji mumbled to Byakuya. The two were walking through the streets, headed to Urahara's Shop. Byakuya ignored Renji's comment and continued walking. They were using Gigai to go through the human world to, hopefully, not run into any hollows. Hollows are never fun to deal with; however, Ichimaru was waiting for them at their destination. Maybe a few hollows would be a good thing. Byakuya looked to the side, thinking about a hollow eating Ichimaru. He shook his head slightly and did his best not to laugh.
the two were dressed differently to try and not catch attention. Renji wore black jeans, boots, and a zipped-up jacket with patterns that resembled fish on the bottom. Byakuya wore a formal suit, keeping up appearences even if the humans didn't know who he was. Moving their way through the busy part of town was difficult. No matter what, Renji's tattoos and Byakuya's kenseiken always attracted attention. Not only that, the two walked awfully close to each other. Renji looked around at the small groups of people that would look at them. A small group of girls (obviously highschool girls, since they wore the same uniform as Orehime) stared at the two, whispered something to eachother, then started giggling, not making Renji happy. They're treating us like eye candy. Hell! I worked hard on getting Byakuya, and I'll be damned if they think they can take him easily! he thought, grabbing Byakuya's hand.
I can feel them staring... Renji thought. He looked at Byakuya, "Hey, Byakuya... How much longer until we get there?" Byakuya didn't look at Renji. He unly muttered what sounded like, "A few more blocks." Byakuya stopped ubruptly, making Renji stop as well. He looked outwards, Renji diong so also. "Is that?" renji asked quietly. Byakuya nodded, "A hollow..." The two feintly heard a roar, then silence. "It's gone..." Byakuya said. Renji grinned and put his hands behind his head, "Maybe it's Ichigo Kurosaki. Seems like Strawberry is dealing with the hollows for us!" he said with a laugh. Byakuya got back to walking, "What a way to make me feel useless, Renji..." "What? Aw, c'mon!" Renji said, running after Byakuya, trying to catch up.
It must have teken what felt like two hours to get to the shop, sheeing how everyone was already there. Ichigo, Rukia, Chad, Orehime, Uryu, Hanataro, Ichimaru, and Urahara himself. Tessai, Ururu, and Jinta were busy cleaning and straightening things up for later in the day. Uryu crossed his arms, "It's about time everyone showed up. Now we can finally start-" "COOKING!" Orehime interrupted, jumping up and throwing her hands in the air. Ueyu looked agrivated, but Hanataro said something in his ear that made him calm down. "well, yall have fun with that..." Ichigo said, lounging and turning on a TV, "But I've made marry with the TV." Chad looked at the TV, "... I never knew... That you like PBS..." "WHAT?!" Ichigo yelled, "Why, you-! Chad! I don't watch-! rrr.. It's not on PBS!" Chad pointed at the TV. Ichigo looked at the TV and turned white.
"Change it!" Ichigo said at the sight of the horrible Boobahs. "Damnit! I'm losing braincells just watching this babble! Why do you have American PBS?! Can't you atleast get Kaiketsu Zorori?! Atleast he's cool!" Ichigo asked, flipping through channels. "What braincells?" Uryu and Rukia asked, laughing at Ichigo. "Uryu!.. Rrrr.. Rukia? You're supposed to be on my side!" Rukia laughed, "Lighten up, Ichigo!" Renji looked at Byakuya, "Seems like they're all having fun..." Byakuya nodded. Urahara walked up behind Byakuya and Renji, placing an arm around each of their shoulders, "Well, if it isn't two of my favourite Soul Reapers!" he said. "I prefer Shinigami," Byakuya said, closing his eyes. "It seems our Quincy and Strawberry are already at it!" the shop keeper said, ignoring Byakuya. Renji looked at Urahara with a grin, "You can say that again!"
Time flies when you're hacing fun... Renji thought, looking out the window as the sun started to set. Hanataro and Ururu poked their heads out of the kitchen, "We're all done in here, Mr. Urahara!" the two said at the same time. "Do you want us to get the fi... re... works?" Hanataro stopped, seeing Chad holding mountains of fireworks like nothing, then Urahara and Ichimaru holding bags that read "The Kurotsuchi's Special Firework Boom-Booms". "Ummm... I see you three.. Already.. Have.. It.. taken.. Care of.." he mummbled, sinking back into the kitchen. Ururu looked at Hanataro, then ran over to Chad to help him.
"My, what's wrong with him?" Ichimaru asked, looking at Urahara. "I dunno..." he replied with a shrug. "Beats me," Chad said, handing Ururu some of the fireworks and walking off.
Renji opened the back door, looking for Byakuya. He looked around the back deck, finding Chad and Rukia setting up the fireworks. He looked around again, seeing Byakuya sitting on the edge of the deck, looking at the plants. Renji walked over to his Captain and sat next to him, "Say, Byakuya. Wat'cha lookin' at?" he asked, looking at Byakuya. He sat there, silent, not awnsering Renji's question. After an akward silence, Byakuya looked at Renji. Just before he could say something, Ichigo popped up between the two, "We could really use your help in there!" "In where?" Byakuya asked. Ichigo stood tall and crossed his arms, "The damn TV went out!"
"Aw, shut up! You can live without your effing TV!" Renji snapped. "LIke hell I can!" Ichigo yelled back at Renji, "I'd have to work if I don't have that TV! And I sure as hell am not cleaning or cooking!" "Well, that sure is lazy of you, Ichigo!" Renji said, crossing his arms. Byakuya closed his eyes, "Why don't you help Rukia and Chad with the fireworks?" "Fine! Don't help me! I'll just light the fireworks!" Ichigo said looking away. He paused, "... Wait... I like blowing stuff up!" he said to himself, running off to help Rukia and Chad.
Renji sighed, looking back at the plants. Byakuya mummbled something, then looked up at Renji. "Huh?" Renji asked, looking at his Captain. Byakuya frowned slightliy, "I asked if you-" He was interrupted once more, but this time from a firework taking off, exploding, then Rukia yelling at Ichigo for "Holding the punk too close to the fuse." Renji had a confused looks, "Soory, Byakua.. but could you repeat that?" Byakuya shook his head, "I think I should wait until later to ask you, renji." Renji frowned, "Hey, Byakuya.. Is it just me, or are you always being interrupted?" Byakuya crossed his arms, "I think I am always being interrupted..." Renji laughed, confusing Byakuya, "What's so funny?" Renji shook his head, "Nothing! It's Nothing!" "Now that's a lie," Byakuya said, shaking his head. Renji grinned, "I can't help it. At times you're so funny!" Byakuya was only confused further, "How am I funny?" Renji stopped, frowning, "Fuhgetaboudit..."
It's finally time for the countdown to the New Year. everyone was camped out in the back yard "Get ready for the countdown!" Urahara announced, looking at a pocket watch. Chad and Uryu got ready to launch the fireworks. "10!... 9!" Urahara started, "8!... 7!... 6!..." then everyone else joined in, "5!... 4!... 3!... 2!... 1!" Chad and Uryu launched off atleast twenty fireworks when everyone cheered "Happy New Year!" Byakuya stared up at the large flashes of light, then looked over at Renji. He was laying down, back on the grass, his right arm behind his head. Byakuya leaned twards him and kissed him lightly on the lips. CLICK and FLASH! Byakuya snapped up to see Hanataro, Ichimaru, and Ichigo all holding cameras. Renji was in shock, so he didn't say anything except for a bunch if studders and babble that was impossible to understand. "RUN!" Ichigo yelled, the three moment crushers running off. Renji looked at Byakuya, who looked about as red as a human's firetruck. "Eh.. Don't mind them," he said, finally over the shock and patting Byakuya on the back. Byakuya stood up and stormed off.
"What's wrong with Byakuya?" Rukia asked, seeing Byakuya leave. Renji sighed, "He's afraid of cameras," he mummbled, chasing after Byakuya.
