This could have been up much much much earlier, but I do have an excuse for the wait! I've been signing up for college and going through all that fun stuff lately so my life's been kinda hectic. Just to let you know, I'm going into school this fall and I'll be in for two years so the chapter update is going to slow down significantly pretty soon. I'm going to be busy with school, a job, and homework! EEP! But I'll try my best to get these up as soon as possible. Anyways, here's the LONG AWAITED CHAPTER!! I've been looking forward to this for MONTHS!!

Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach or any of it's characters.

Gin walked into the living room and straight to the two girls. He sat down on the couch and sighed.

"Azra, Ayame, I have a problem," Gin frowned, if that was possible.

The girls looked at him expectantly.

"I don't know what to say...I mean...I don't know how to act around Izuru's parents," Gin stuttered slightly, a bit embarrassed.

"Then don't go meet them," Ayame growled rather sarcastically.

Azra looked at her friend and sighed before turning to Gin, "Come on lets go talk."

Gin nodded and followed Azra to the back porch.

"Alright there's a few things you need to know about Kira's parents," Azra started as she sat in a nearby chair, "First things first, use your manners. Yes sir, no sir, yes ma'am, no ma'am. You know, basic shit. No cursing."

Gin nodded, taking mental notes.

"Oh...and try not to mention me or Ayame. We've had...confrontations with his dad before," Azra smiled.

"Like what?" Gin asked.

"Long story," Azra shrugged, "He's just not fond of us. Anyways, his mom is pretty nice. Even if she doesn't like you, she won't say it to your face, just to keep up appearances."

Gin nodded, taking another mental note.

"Now about his dad," Azra practically growled, "He's your typical redneck. He'll tell you if he doesn't like you, and he won't be nice about it. Just bear with it and you'll be fine. His mom usually keeps his dad in line."

"So his dad's a psycho and his mom's a secret bitch?" Gin asked.

"Yea in a nut shell," Azra smiled.

"Yay," Gin replied rather sarcastically.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine," Azra patted Gin on the back.

Gin nodded and turned to the door as Izuru walked out onto the back porch.

"Are you ready?" Izuru asked Gin.

"Yea...I guess," Gin sighed.

Izuru smiled, "Don't be so bummed. They're not that bad."

Azra coughed loudly.

"Azra!" Izuru whined.

"Sorry Kira. Have fun," Azra smiled.

Izuru smiled and walked back through the back door with Gin following shortly behind.

"We're ready Ayame!" Izuru called into the living room.

Ayame stood up and headed to the front door. The boys followed her through the front door and to the car. They jumped in the car and left for Izuru's house.

"Gin's fucked," Ichigo sighed.

"Yep," Renji nodded.

"Imma miss the fucker," Ikkaku mumbled.

"He would have been fine had he not gotten Kira knocked up," Azra joined in as she walked in the room.

"So you agree he's a dead man?" Grimmjow asked.

Azra nodded, "As good as dead."

"Don't bet on things like that!" Yumichika practically squealed, "It's like taboo!"

"What?" Azra almost laughed, "If anything we'll jinx ourselves."

"How so?" Yumichika asked.

"We all say he's fucked. So watch...he's going to come back and be all 'THEY LOVE ME!'" Azra smiled.

"Then how would you guys be screwed?" Yumichika asked.

"They're about to start putting money into this, I can feel it," Azra whispered.

Yumichika looked up at the group of guys to see a staring contest going on between Renji and Grimmjow. Shortly after, Renji blinked.

"Hah! You blinked, therefore you lose! Bow your head in shame bitch!" Grimmjow announced. (1)

"Fuck you!" Renji growled as he threw a twenty dollar bill at Grimmjow.

Grimmjow happily put it in his pocket.

"Cheater," Renji grumbled.

"Uke," Grimmjow grinned happily. (2)

Renji looked at Grimmjow in shock, knowing full well what the word meant.

"How'd you learn that word?" Renji asked.

"I'm just good like that," Grimmjow nodded in triumph.

"Well enough of that," Azra smiled, "I bet ten bucks Ichimaru's comin' back without Kira."

Ikkaku poked his head up at the word 'bet'. He smiled and slapped fifteen dollars down in front of Azra, "I bet his dad stalks him and hunts his ass down!"

"I bet he comes back bloodied," Grimmjow grinned manically as he slapped a twenty down.

"No I bet he's coming back with a broken limb," Renji nodded, adding ten dollars into the growing pile of money.

As Azra wrote this down, Ichigo put in fifteen dollars.

"I bet he comes back with tire tracks down his back," Ichigo announced.

"Ouch!" Azra cringed.

Uryu quietly threw in five dollars, "I bet he gets his dick chopped off."

Ichigo blinked a couple times and slowly turned to Uryu, "Who are you? And what have you done to my boyfriend?"

Uryu blushed a deep shade of red and hid his face from the staring crowd.

"Holy shit Uryu," Ikkaku laughed, "I didn't think you had the balls. Hell I didn't even know you had a dick!"

Uryu blushed an even deeper shade of red and secretly wished he would disappear. Thankfully for him, the attention was drawn away from him by Ayame walking through the front door.

"Perfect timing Ayame!" Renji chimed in, "We were just discussing how screwed Gin is!"

"How sweet," Ayame giggled sarcastically, "You're making bets aren't you?"

"See, you guys are too obvious," Azra sighed.

"Fifty says the dad pulls out a weapon," Ayame grinned maliciously.

"You're awfully confident," Azra raised an eyebrow.

"Nobody knows that asshole like I do," Ayame smiled, quite happily at this fact.

"True. You've had the most run-ins with him," Azra agreed.

"If you're so confident then lets see the money," Ichigo folded his arms.

Ayame pulled out a fifty dollar bill from her pocket and threw it into the pile.

"Do you always walk around with big bills in your pocket?" Grimmjow asked, "If so then I'll have to make a mental note to mug you."

"No I just had a feeling you guys were going to do this so I stopped by the bank on the way back," Ayame looked at Grimmjow, "And I'd like to see you try Jeagerjaques."

"You and your weird sixth-sense shit," Azra mumbled.

Ayame smiled and sat down to join the group. As they were conversing in betting and other things, they never seemed to notice a certain person sneak through the front door.

Byakuya had knocked numerous times but never an answer. He opened the front door and heard talking in the other room. When nobody came to greet him, he wandered around the house, searching for the inhabitants. He finally found them in a den close to the back of the house. Nobody was facing the entrance to the den so he casually walked in and sat on the floor behind everyone else. It was about ten minutes before Renji happened to spot him. Byakuya quickly put his pointer finger over his mouth, quieting his lover before anything was said.

"So that's one hundred and twenty-five total if I'm not mistaken," Azra announced.

"Yep," Renji nodded after counting the cash.

"Just to make sure I have this right," Azra started, "it's ten from me, fifteen from Madarame, twenty from Grimmjow, ten from Abarai, fifteen from Kurosaki, five from potty mouth Ishida, and fifty from Ayame."

Everyone nodded in agreement as she named the bets off. Renji then turned to Byakuya.

"Hey you wanna add anything Byakuya?" Renji asked casually.

"Yea Kuchki how bout you HEY when did you get here?" Azra half asked half shrieked.

Byakuya shook his head trying to hide a rare smile, "I don't bet on petty things."

"It's not good that random men can come into our house and us not know," Uryu sighed, pushing up his glasses.

"No...but random hot dudes is perfectly fine," Renji smiled.

"...I agree," Azra added.

Byakuya stood up and took a seat next to his lover. Renji started to explain what they were betting on, when who they were betting on burst through the front door. Azra stood up and walked into the living room only to see a blur of silver dart into the bathroom. The click of a door locking was heard shortly after.

"Umm...Ayame!" Azra called, "I think Ichimaru's back!"

Ayame walked into the living room next to Azra and looked around.

"Where?" Ayame asked.

Azra pointed to the bathroom, "There."

"Maybe he really had to shit," Grimmjow shrugged.

Azra eyed him and walked to the bathroom door, followed by Ayame.

"Hey Ichimaru!" Azra called.

"I'M NOT HERE!" Gin screamed back.

"What's going on?" Ayame asked.

"He's not here. You're talking to yourself," Azra giggled.

"Hey Madarame!" Ayame called.

"What?" Ikkaku replied.

"Lemme sit on your shoulders for a second," Ayame motioned for Ikkaku.

Ikkaku walked over a knelt down in front of Ayame. When she sat on his shoulders, he stood up. Ayame grabbed something sitting on the top of the door frame, then asked to be set down.

"Whatcha got?" Azra asked.

Ayame revealed a small bobby pin. She stuck it in the lock on the bathroom door and jiggled it around. The door popped open and Ayame snuck in, quickly closing the door behind her.

Ayame looked around the bathroom, finding no sign of Gin. She finally pulled back the shower curtain to find him sitting in the bathtub.

"What the.." Ayame was cut off when he looked at her.

He was deathly pale, extremely fatigued, and visibly shaken.

"Ichimaru what happened?" Ayame asked in an unusually soothing tone.

When he didn't answer, she sat on the edge of the bathtub and laid her hand on his shoulder. It was a few minutes before he finally had the courage to speak.

"I don't deserve him," Gin spoke so quietly Ayame barely caught it.

"Why don't you deserve him?" Ayame asked.

"It's in my blood. I'm no good," Gin replied in that eerily quiet tone.

"Says who?" Ayame asked.

"His dad," Gin almost spat.

Ayame's eyes narrowed and turned a dangerous color of red, "What did he say?"

Gin sighed.

Flashback

"Mom. Dad. This is Gin," Izuru introduced his parents.

"Nice to meet you," Gin shook their hands, trying to hide the nervousness he was feeling.

The group of four sat in the living room, chatting about random unimportant things. Thirty minutes had gone by in no time, and Izuru decided to break the news. Well, some of it.

"Umm...Mom. Dad. I kinda have an announcement," Izuru spoke up.

"What is that dear?" His mom asked.

"Well, me and Gin are...ummm...together. As a couple," Izuru looked at his parents, hoping for acceptance.

A bit of an awkward silence fell upon the room, before his dad spoke up.

"Well son. I didn't expect you went that way," His dad sighed.

"So..." Izuru trailed off nervously.

"Well we love you no matter what," His mom smiled.

Izuru smiled, calming down a bit, "Thanks Mom."

It was Izuru's dad's turn to speak next.

"What did you say your name was?" He asked Gin.

"Gin Ichimaru, sir," He replied.

Izuru's dad's eyebrow visibly twitched.

"Ichimaru?" He asked.

"Yes, sir," Gin replied.

"As in the con-artist?" His dad asked menacingly.

Gin sighed deeply, "That was my father, sir. He left before I was born."

"Get out of my house," His dad whispered.

"Sir, I..." Gin was quickly cut off.

"No son of mine will be dating Ichimaru's bastard child!" His dad growled.

"DAD!" Izuru shrieked.

"Stay out of this!" His dad screamed, now standing up, "Get the fuck out of my house!"

"I don't plan to be like him!" Gin tried defending himself.

"I don't give a fuck!" His dad roared.

"He's not going anywhere because I love him and I'M CARRYING HIS CHILD!!" Izuru screamed at the top of his lungs.

The entire room went quiet except for small sobs escaping Izuru's mouth. Gin quickly leaned in and comforted his lover.

"You're what?" His dad asked.

Izuru took a picture out of his pocket and threw it on the coffee table.

"It's a picture of the ultrasound. Just in case you don't believe me," Izuru whispered.

His dad quickly left the room.

"Izuru," His mom whispered, "How long..."

"About a month," Izuru confirmed.

"It's still early enough to..." His mom started.

"No. I'm keeping it," Izuru stared at his mom almost angrily.

Before his mom could reply, his dad walked into the living room, shotgun in hand.

"I told you to get the fuck out," His dad growled.

Gin was out the front door before the sentence was finished. Izuru's dad wasn't far behind him. When Izuru tried to leave, his mom grabbed him and insisted that he stay in the house

End Flashback

"I don't know if he followed me here or not," Gin sighed.

"He'll probably come by. He knows we're associated with Kira. But don't worry, you're safe here," Ayame nodded.

"Izuru...I left him there," Gin whispered, "I'm no better than my father."

"Don't say that," Ayame barked, "You're the best thing that ever happened to Izuru."

Gin smiled for the first time that night. The moment was short lived though, as Azra beat on the bathroom door.

"Kira's mom called. Said his dad's on the way and to call the cops," Azra announced, "Ayasegawa's on the phone with 911 now!"

"Alright!" Ayame called back.

Shortly after, gunshots were heard.

"What the hell?" Ayame asked.

"THAT FUCKER IS SHOOTING AT MY HOUSE!!" Azra screamed.

Azra felt her entire body fill with rage. She tried to keep calm but it was quite the task. She couldn't stand that man anyways, and him shotting at her house was jut about the last straw. When he came beating on the front door, that was the last straw. Azra just lost it.

She stormed to the front door, flung it open, and stepped outside. She was now staring down the barrels of a shotgun, but at that moment, she didn't care.

"What do you want?" Azra asked.

"Give me Ichimaru and I'll leave you and your little friends alone," He growled.

"He's not here," Azra refrained from ending that sentence in 'jackass'.

"Bullshit!" He spat.

Azra then noticed her situation. She was staring down the barrels of a loaded shotgun, cornered by a crazy man. There was only one word going through her mind at that moment. Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-FUCK-FUCK-FUCK-FUCK-FUCK-FUCK-FUCK. (3) She was pretty successful at keeping that 'fucked' look off of her face though.

"So are you going to be a good little girl and hand him over?" He asked all too sweetly.

"No," Azra practically laughed.

He narrowed his eyes and lifted his gun. He then turned it around, planning to hit Azra with the other end of the gun.

Azra closed her eyes, knowing there was nothing she could do to stop him, and refusing to run. She screamed when a loud BANG was heard. Her ears were still ringing when she opened her eyes to see Izuru's dad on the ground, clutching his leg. She looked up to see a cop holding a gun in his hand. With closer examination, she noticed it was the cop from earlier that month that had interrogated her about the bouncers house. She looked at the man on the ground, then back to the cop, then back to the man on the ground, then back to the cop.

"AZRA!" Grimmjow burst through the front door.

"What the fuck man!?" Azra pointed at the cop, "You're that cop!"

"Azra are you ok?" Grimmjow asked.

Azra sat on the porch step and sighed, "I should be dead."

Renji walked through the front door and examined the scene before him

"Mmmmm whatcha saaaaaay," Renji started. (4)

Azra quickly stood up and punched Renji in the nose, "I hate that fuckin song!"

"OW! Motherfucker!" Renji wailed.

"I told you not to," Byakuya commented, walking outside.

Azra sat back down and watched as another cop handcuffed Izuru's dad.

"So does anybody want to explain to me what happened here? Azra?" The cop from before asked.

"I should be dead," Azra sighed, her mind a bit fuzzy.

"Yes but you're not so how about explaining this to me," The cop sighed.

"I should be dead," Azra repeated blankly.

"Do you want to be dead?" The cop asked.

"No, but I should be," Azra commented.

The cop sighed deeply and rubbed the bridge of his nose. Ayame decided to step in and explain. Her and the cop walked away as Ayame told him everything she knew. A few minutes passed by when the cop came walking back up to the porch with Ayame.

"Ms. Crawford, I'm not only here to investigate this incident. I'm also here to follow up on our previous investigation. Would you mind showing me which red Mazda Miata is yours?" The cop smiled.

Byakuya then spoke up," Mine is..."

He was cut off by Renji elbowing him in the ribs.

"This is why we needed your car," Renji whispered in his lovers ear.

Luckily the cop didn't notice this as the porch was too crowded by this point.

"Mine is the one furthest away," Byakuya sighed.

"Would you be so kind as to hand me the keys to Ms. Crawford's car?" The cop asked.

Byakuya looked down at Azra and waited for confirmation. When she nodded, he stepped inside with Renji.

"If I get caught for this Renji Abarai..." Byakuya started.

Renji cut him off with a kiss. When the kiss was broken, Renji looked into his lovers eyes.

"You won't," Renji nodded with a strong look of determination on his face.

It was then that Byakuya noticed exactly how much trust these men put into these two simple females. He nodded, not knowing what to say, and grabbed his car keys.

He stepped outside and handed the keys to the cop.

"The one closest to us is hers," Byakuya pointed to his car.

The cop nodded and walked over to the car. Azra then turned to Byakuya and smiled.

"You want a cigarette?" Renji asked her.

Azra took a deep breath and nodded. He handed Azra her pack of cigarettes and a lighter. She lit one up and inhaled deeply. The group sat in silence as the cop examined Byakuya's car. The only sounds that could be heard were distant talking of other cops and the inhaling and exhaling of cigarette smoke from Azra.

When the cop walked back to the group, he was clearly very unhappy.

I guess you're off the hook this time Azra," He sighed, tossing the keys to her.

Azra smiled, "Would it make you feel better if I told you my side of the story?"

"A bit," The cop pulled out a small notebook.

Azra put her cigarette out and told him everything, from beginning to end, in the best detail she could. She even took him around the house to find the bullet holes from him shooting at the house. In the end, to say he was pleased would be an understatement. He was so happy that Grimmjow had asked if Azra had given the cop a blow job on the side of the house. This of course resulted in a firm slap in the head for Grimmjow.

When the cop finally left, the group walked inside.

"Azra," Byakuya called.

When she turned to him, he continued.

"How did you know I wouldn't get caught for lieing to the cop?" He asked.

"At that point I didn't. And I thank you for putting yourself at risk for me," Azra smiled.

Byakuya's eyes widened at this. He sighed deeply and followed the crowd into the den. Everyone filed in, sitting randomly around the room. Ayame walked in shortly after with Gin. He had calmed down significantly, but signs of fatigue could still be seen on his face. It was then that Ayame announced her winnings.

"So I was right," Ayame smiled, "Therefore I win the money."

"Yes but so was I. So it's split evenly," Azra smiled.

"What was yours?" Ayame asked.

"He came back without Kira," Azra shrugged.

"Oh," Ayame sighed.

"Wait," Gin spoke up, "You were betting on me?"

Azra nodded, "We had nothing better to do."

"That's fucked up," Gin sighed.

Azra shrugged, "We need a way to divide this."

"What's wrong?" Ayame asked.

"Well split evenly, it's 62.50. But we don't have any ones and no change," Azra explained.

"Well give me sixty-five and I'll pay you pack," Ayame shrugged.

Azra shrugged and slapped sixty-five dollars into Ayame's hand.

"How do you guys always win?" Ikkaku asked.

"We're just good like that," Azra winked.

"Well I was right on one thing," Yumichika pointed out.

"Oh yea! You said we would jinx Ichimaru!" Azra laughed.

"I was right wasn't I?" Yumichika laughed.

"Yea shut the hell up," Azra giggled.

"Hey," Gin butted in.

"What?" Azra asked.

"Can you take me out to Toshiro's? I wanna check on him," Gin asked.

"I'm going back home soon so I guess you can come with me," Byakuya sighed.

"Meanie," Renji growled.

Byakuya ignored him and turned to Gin, "If you're ready, we can go now."

Gin nodded and stood up.

Byakuya kissed Renji and whispered in his ear, "Aishiteru."

Renji sighed, still not knowing what the word meant. Byakuya said his goodbyes and left with Gin.

"Does he know what you're sayin to him?" Gin asked Byakuya when they were outside.

Byakuya's eyes widened for the second time that night. He had forgotten Gin knew Japanese.

"I take that as a no," Gin smiled.

"Don't say a word," Byakuya growled.

Gin just kept on smiling.
