Hi! I felt like I owed ya for such a short chapter that really didn't have much to it. So I'm gonna do another chapter! This one has two songs in it! Even better, it's focused around Gin and Izuru. I know you all are gonna love it! I got this idea from a rant I did in a review for a GinxKira story. You'll see what I mean! Oh, Gin!
Gin: Cookie does not own Bleach or its characters. So, how was ta show last night?
Me: I loved it! You were so funny. I have no idea why Wonderweiss doesn't like you.
Gin: Me either. I'm still tryin' ta figure out if he's s'posed ta be retarded or sumthin.
Me: I don't know. But the point is I love you. And that's what matters!
Baby Strawberry Snowflakes
7 months (Izuru)
Izuru's POV
I was sitting in my office doing Gin's work as usual while he went off doing who knows what. Doing paperwork has given me time to think about our future. I was over halfway in my pregnancy and in five more months I could finally get the little demon out. The thing I found amusing was that there have been bets on what the baby would look like. Does it have blue eyes like me or red eyes like Gin? A slender face like me or a fox face like Gin. Blonde or silver hair? The possibilities were endless and so were my thoughts. Another thing that strayed into my mind every now and then was the real reason that Gin came back. It was understood that I was part of the reason but could it really take the feelings for only one person to change a traitor's ways? Hell, I remember when he appeared right after Amagai-taicho had gone. I sighed and looked down at my protruding stomach. Never before had I ever thought that one day I would be carrying Gin's child. It was unbelievable that he even came back. I looked at my paper and noticed all these stray brush strokes all over it.
"Crap," I muttered, "That's the third one. Why must he always intrude my thoughts?"
"Who's intrudin' yer thoughts?" a recognizable voice sounded.
I turned and saw Gin standing there with his head cocked to one side with his rare but adorable confused look. I smiled, "None of your business, Gin."
Gin walked over to me, "Oh, but I think it is my business. Who was it?"
A slight blush crept over my face, "Who do you think?"
He smiled and looked at my paperwork, "Tsk tsk. My my Izuru, do I really distract ya tat much?"
"It's not just you." I mentioned, "The child has also been on my mind as well."
"But o'course! Why wouldn't it be? Have we thought o' names for it yet?" The fox asked.
I shook my head, "You know we can't do that until we know the gender."
Gin grinned wider, "But why not have one ready fer both? What if it's a girl? What do ya want the name ta be?"
I thought for a second, "Hmmm, if it's a girl, either Sora or Mitsu."
"Sky or secret, ne? I like 'em. What about if it's a boy?" Gin said.
I pondered again, "Maybe Blayne or Aku."
Gin chuckled, "Nice, Izuru. All of 'em are wonderful."
"Uh, Gin? I have a question." I announced.
"Hmm? What is it?" he asked curiously.
I hesitated, "Well, what was the real reason you came back? I know it couldn't have been just me that you returned for. There had to have been something else. You can tell me. I won't be hurt."
Gin's POV
I was taken a little aback by Izuru's question. But he looked determined and I couldn't lie to his sweet face.
"Well," I began, "it goes somethin' like this…"
FLASHBACK
I walked into Aizen's throne room. I had to ask him something real important. Aizen lifted his head and smiled at me.
"Gin." He spoke, "What is it you want?"
I cleared my throat, "Well, Lord Aizen, I had a request for ya."
Aizen's eyes glittered with interest, "Go on."
"I was wonderin' if I could bring someone from the Soul Society ta come be here wit us." I said cautiously but with confidence.
He frowned immediately, "Absolutely not."
My face fell, "What? Why the hell not?"
"Because Gin," he spoke in his menacing tone, "you are nothing more than a pawn to me. Do you really think I can make such exceptions like letting you bring someone from the Soul Society here? You really are out of your mind like Tosen says you are. It's no wonder no one likes you here."
Then I finally lost it. All this time I had been plastering a fake smile over my face while Aizen got all the goods and sometimes gave some to Tosen aka Teacher's Pet while I got nothing. Well that was the final straw. I actually dropped my accent and yelled for the first time in a long time, "That's it! I've had enough!"
Aizen's facial expression didn't change. He seemed unphased by my abnormal outburst which made me more furious, "I'm fucking sick and tired of you getting everything you want!! You always hafta have your way! Because if you don't, then you throw a little hissy fit like the bitch you are! You're gonna bitch and moan and then call your slave Tosen to get you some tea. And what do I do? I'm just stuck in the corner and snooping around trying to make friends and fucking be somebody! But because you're so stubborn at always getting what you want, you can't let me because you know for a fact that if you aren't careful, I could overpower you! That's why you were so damn determined to get me on your side! So you wouldn't ever hafta battle me! Well you know what Lord Aizen?! I'm done here! I'm done with the Arrancar, Las Noches, and most of all…I'm done with YOU. You manipulated me ever since I was a little kid because you knew that one day I would get stronger than you. And guess what?! That day has come."
I unsheathed my zanpakuto, "Shoot to kill, Shinsou!"
I roared my zanpakuto's name as Shinsou extended and went right through Aizen. Then I heard a chuckle from behind me. It was the real Aizen, "Well done, Gin. I must say I'm impressed with your determination. You actually had me going for a second that you might actually leave."
"DON'T MOCK ME YOU SCUM! SHINSOU!!!" I screamed and shot once more at him as he flash stepped to the other side of the room.
Aizen smiled, "This is quite fun. What is this little game, Gin? Something you and your boy toy Kira come up with?"
That's it. You can make fun of me…but not Izuru. I had no choice. I took a deep breath and yelled as loud as I could, "BANKAI!!!!!!"
After that everything was a blur. The last thing I remember was kicking dust at Aizen's unconscious but breathing body and opening a portal to the Soul Society saying these words, "I'm coming Izuru."
I arrived at the Soul Society gate in no time and was able to get in without much trouble. I masked my reiatsu and crept to the 3rd division. I opened the door of Izuru's room and heard a sobbing noise. I noticed that he was crying. He really did miss me. Well then, he's in for a nice surprise.
I leaned over to him and whispered into his ear, "What's tha matter, Izuru? Ya missin' someone?"
The blond froze at the sound of my voice. He slowly turned around and saw me, "Ichimaru-taicho! What are you doing here?!"
I covered his mouth with my hand, "Shh! Do ya really want me ta get caught? Look, I've come back."
Izuru removed my hand from his mouth, "Y-you have?"
"Yup." I confirmed, "My plan is ta confront the sotaicho and kiss up ta him as much as possible. If I'm right, he'll let me off."
Izuru looked up at me, "Ichimaru-taicho, why have you-"
I cut him off differently this time. I pressed my lips to his, silencing him instantly. He was surprised at first but started to kiss back. After a few seconds, I broke it off, "Please, Izuru, call me Gin."
FLASHBACK END
"…and tat is why I left ta come back here." I finished, smiling still.
"Wow. I'm so glad you came back Gin. You have no idea how many nights I would spend sitting in that window singing to the sky." He said dreamily.
I grinned even more, "Really? Ya didn't tell me ya could sing Izuru."
The blonde gave the classic answer, "You never asked."
I scoffed, "Can I hear what ya sang? I'm sure ya ain't too bad."
"Well, it was about you and how you left me. I hope that doesn't offend you." he cautioned.
I shrugged, "Anythin' ta hear my lovely Izuru sing. I don't mind."
He cleared his throat and began to
sing,
"Sparkling angel I believed. You are my savior in my time
of need.
Blinded by faith I couldn't hear. All the whispers, the
warnings so clear.
I see the angels, I'll lead them to your
door.
There's no escape now. No mercy no more.
No remorse cause
I still remember. The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my
heart, deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams, I
wished they turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me
realize. It was all just a lie.
Sparkling angel, I couldn't see.
Your dark intentions, your feelings for me.
Fallen angel, tell me
why? What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door.
There's no escape now. No mercy no
more.
No remorse cause I still remember. The smile when you tore
me apart
You took my heart, deceived me right from the start.
You
showed me dreams, I wished they turn into real.
You broke the
promise and made me realize. It was all just a lie.
Could have
been forever. Now we have reached the end."
I was blown away. I had no idea he could sing like that. I leaned over and kissed him on the cheek, "I love ya, Izuru. And yer beautiful voice too. Ya don't still think tat of me do ya?"
Izuru shook his head, "No, of course not."
"Good." I smiled, "Would ya like me ta sing to ya?"
Izuru looked at me with surprise, "You can sing?"
"Izuru, anybody can carry a tune. Even Kenpachi." I joked.
The lieutenant nodded, "Well then sing."
I shrugged, "M'kay. But mine
ain't exactly gonna be all sweet an' slow an' crap." I took a
deep breath and started to sing,
"You look
gorgeous in your dress. Lovely, fit enough to kiss.
There's a
stranger in the room, turns the page to face the groom.
I will
love you more, I'll love you more than someone else.
Speak now
or forever hold your peace, love. There's no peace on your own.
I
want it to feel, I want it to feel like love
I want it to heal, I
want it to heal
I want it to feel like love...like love
The
bride is dancing in the hall, when a lover's toast is called.
Eyes
shine with ecstasy, I wait for ours to meet.
I will love you more,
more than a trophy on a shelf.
Speak now or forever hold your
peace, love. There's no peace on your own.
I want it to feel, I
want it to feel like love
I want it to heal, I want it to heal
I
want it to feel like love...like a drug."
Izuru looked speechless. I chuckled, "I told ya."
All of the sudden, there was a knock on the door, "Come in." Izuru said.
Unohana walked in and smiled, "Ichimaru-taicho, Kira-fukutaicho...congratulations, you two are having a healthy baby boy."
Izuru's POV
Gin's red eyes opened in shock but I saw them shimmering with a sense of pride. So its gonna be a boy, ne? Interesting. I nodded to Unohana, "Thank you so much Unohana-taicho for telling us. We are both very excited."
"Your welcome." Unohana replied as she left.
Gin's eyes were back to slits again but he was smiling wider than ever, "Isn't it wonderful, Izuru?"
Tears started forming in my eyes, "Yeah. Now we just hafta decide the name. What do you think? Blayne or Aku?"
Wiping away my tears he held me close and whispered, "I think Blayne is perfect."
"Then it's settled." I said drawing back from the hug, "Our son's name will be Blayne Aku Ichimaru."
My lovely fox nodded, "Tat's the mos' beautiful name I ever heard. Almost as beautiful as ya, Izuru."
ATTENTION: The two songs were Angels by Within Temptation and Feel Like Love by The Hint in that order. Look them up and listen to them while they are being sung to get the full effect!!!!
Okay, so I'm gonna leave it at that little mushy ending. Sweet isn't it? I thought about leaving the naming up to you guys but I figured I'll name Gin and Izuru's baby while y'all can name Ichigo and Toshiro's twins. I do think Blayne Aku Ichimaru sounds awesome.
Gin: Yeah, it does. Ya picked a good name, Cookie.
Me: Thanks! I'm sorry you were kinda OOC in this chapter.
Gin: Ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
Toshiro: You seriously are gonna leave the naming of MY two children up to the crazy and insane readers?
Me: Basically, yeah.
Gin: I don't know why yer so upset, Toshiro. Ya won't hafta worry about naming them.
Me: Actually that's more me. The play will more than likely be taking up a majority of my time and I'll barely have time to breathe let alone think up not one but two names for Toshiro's children. So I really hope you don't think up some crappy names. You can start suggesting them at anytime but I prefer you do so after the genders of the twins are released. Okay, I'm the author of this story so I guess I can give you a hint…they-
Gin: They're gonna be girls.
Me: Gin! Why'd ya hafta spoil it?!
Gin: (looks innocent) I'm sorry. It slipped out.
Me: Awww. I can't stay mad at you.
Toshiro: Well all you readers had better not think up stupid and frilly girl names. Or I will hunt you down.
Me: No you won't, mother.
Toshiro: Did you just call me 'mother'?
Me: Yep. Izuru has already reserved the name 'mommy' so what else was left?
Toshiro: How about 'Toshiro' or better yet 'Hitsugaya-taicho'?!
Me: But what does that hafta do with being a mommy?
Toshiro: Ugh!
Gin: Be quiet. Cookie has something to say.
Me: Thanks Gin! REVIEW TO SEE THE MADNESS CONTINUE AND MORE!!!
