OKAY READERS! SORRY I TOOK SO LONG TO UPDATE. NOW FOR THE BLANKITY BLANK OF BYAKUYA AND HISANA. DUM DUM DA DUM!
It was a very sunny morning when Hisana awoke on her wedding day. It was mid-May and the cherry blossom trees were fully in bloom. Hisana herself was still dreaming of the life she was about to have with her new husband. She had all ready experienced life with Byakuya but it was bound to get better... And harder. She didn't care, though; she knew she loved him and she was sure that he felt the same. Hisana wasn't really nervous about anything except all of the prestigious Noble events she would be required to go to. Many of the other Ladies didn't like her and quite frankly, Hisana didn't like them. She would never admit that though.
Most of Byakuya's family didn't approve of their marriage. Apparently, of the entire group of elders, only one man agreed to the engagement. Byakuya's great-uncle, Taru, had found that they were a good match and that Hisana was a woman filled with integrity, which should be found in any Noble Lady. Hisana had been flattered at the words and was grateful that Byakuya had the final word on the situation. She knew that after the time they spent together, she couldn't live without him. Any pain she had felt before she had met him, was gone now. And she was very content with the situation. Though she wished his family would like her more.
Hisana's eyes opened slowly and her heart almost jumped out of her chest as she remembered what day it was. She smiled a wide grin and giggled uncontrollably. Happy tears started to fall out of her eyes and she didn't wipe them away until she was done laughing to herself and she was ready to get up. When she was, she informed her maid that she was awake and within five minutes, several maids were in her room to help her prepare for the day. Some were carrying different kinds of garments and others were carrying food.
Hisana was first bathed in very expensive oils to make her smell of cherry blossoms the entire day. The oils were, at first, blistering hot, but in mere seconds she was almost shivering in the oils. She was to remain in the oils for an hour, so she relaxed and enjoyed how smoothly the day would go. Nothing would ruin this day. Nothing.
Byakuya sat in the ornate shrine and bowed low as he did every time he was in this room. He silently thanked his parents for sending his bride to him. He smiled slightly and sat up again. He stared at his father's portrait, then at his mother's. But he stared at his mother longer and filled his mind half with her and half with Hisana. He had small memories of his father, but none of his mother and he was sure that Hisana was just like her. Based on the stories he was told as a boy, his mother was smart, independent, honest, and beautiful. Everything that his Hisana was and that was proof alone that she was sent to him by his loving parents. They were gone, yes, but they never spiritually left him.
After he was done praying, he started back to his room. His preparation for the wedding wasn't as intense as Hisana's. He smiled at the thought. Hisana had been exposed to a life she's never known before, but she flowed nicely for having been through so much negativity. She was stronger than she looked, and that was another feature he loved and respected in her. He was madly in love and he knew that he would continually feel that way, as long as Hisana was by his side. She was his life. It was as simple as that.
When he opened the door to his room, a huge eruption of voices bombarded him. Many of his colleagues and family members greeted him loudly. Byakuya heard people congratulate him and a bottle of wine pop open. "Byakuya!" He turned to see Kaien grinning at him widely and cheekily. "Listen up everyone. I'm gonna make a toast. Look, Byakuya, I was there when you met Hisana and I was sure back then that you would be together forever. I know that a man only feels whole when he has someone to love and protect. And I'm sure that you'll feel whole forever." It was a relaxing silence. "Oh, and I'll happily be your best man."
Byakuya couldn't help but smile at his friend. He held out his hand and Kaien shook it roughly. "Kaien, promise me, that you won't get drunk now. I don't want you embarrassing Hisana and I." Kaien smirked and spun away. "Yeah, okay. But at the reception..." Byakuya returned his friend's grin with his own. "Do as you please, my friend."
After a few hours of preparation, Byakuya started for the Elders' Meeting Room. They had wanted to speak with him briefly before the wedding and Byakuya was a tad bit perplexed. They were prone to annoying him and he didn't want to be tense and angry at his own wedding. He walked slowly into the room and notice that none of the elders were to be seen. When he took his seat, his great-uncle Taru walked in and bowed toward Byakuya respectively. Taru had been the only elder that approved of the marriage. Byakuya was thankful but unsettled by Taru's actions.
One after one, the elders filed into the room and took their seats. Ginrei was last in the room and he took his place ahead of every else. That only meant that he called for the meeting. Byakuya couldn't help but glare to himself; something bad was definitely going to happen. "I'd like to first, thank you all for coming," Ginrei started. "This is the second time I've called a meeting like this. And, Byakuya, it is for your own good. A majority of us do not approve of this match because of the many obvious drawbacks when it comes to your bride. Now, we implore you, call off this wedding."
"Never." This came out as a dangerous hiss. Ginrei sighed. "Byakuya, this is for your own good, and for the good of the family. What if she can't have children? What if she has children and they're not your children." Byakuya felt his stomach flip and rage form in the pit of his heart. "How dare you-"
"That is a possibility of what might occur when it comes to women like that!" Before Byakuya got to retaliate, Taru stood up and spoke softly. "Women like what, Ginrei? Women from the Rukon District? I remember a certain Lady that was from the Rukon District that was called the greatest Lady in Kuchiki history. So, what's wrong with Rukon women?" Byakuya's eyes widened and he looked frantically at Ginrei. "What is he talking about?" Taru looked to Byakuya and sighed. "Your mother, Lady Kikyo, was from the Rukon District."
Ginrei took a harsh breathe and avoided Byakuya's glare. "Kikyo was a grave exception," he mumbled bowing his head. Byakuya just got angrier and angrier. "Then why is Hisana so different? Why won't you accept her?" Ginrei looked Byakuya deep in the eyes. "Because it will end in failure. Yes, your mother was a great woman, but she was killed having you. So what do you think will happen when Hisana tries to have children. You won't have grandparents to watch your son should she die. And, if the child isn't yours you can't just give it up because of the law. Do you want that for your life? Do you want misery?"
Byakuya took in a breath and absorbed everything his grandfather told him. He then looked around to every one of the elders. "I have made my decision. I will marry Hisana, and I am not afraid of infidelities, childbearing, or failure of any sort. I love Hisana. Hisana loves me. Nothing you say or do is going to change that. Now," He stands and straightens his clothes, "I expect you all to keep your conduct in check at the wedding today. And, I expect you to respect Hisana for as long as she lives here. Do I make myself clear?" The elders nodded in unison. Byakuya then glided out of the room.
Ginrei let out a frustrated snarl. "Fine. We'll respect her for as long as she lives here. And believe me, that won't be long..."
Hisana sat on her bed and let maids dress her for her wedding, which was in exactly one hour. Someone then knocked lightly on her door. A maid opened it and Yukio stepped in slowly. Hisana stood and hugged her friend. "Thank you so much for making my kimono, Yukio. I will do anything to repay you." Yukio smiled while opening the bag the kimono was inside of. Hisana gasped when she saw it. The kimono was long and white with painted on sakura blossoms flowing from the collar to the end of the dress, where it went around the end of the skirt and the train. Also the obi was a light pink that matched to color of the sakuras. Finally the wataboshi was long and a sheer white material. It was beautiful and angelic.
Once she was dressed in the kimono, she was given her bouquet of white dandelions and led outside. Yukio kissed her cheeks and went to find her seat. The garden was beautiful as well. The lush green grass was covered with sakura blossom petals that were falling from the trees. The shrine was decorated white with white dandelions woven into the sheer white materials. Hisana stared out at the people that were attending the wedding. They were all Byakuya's friends, but she didn't mind. From where she was standing she could she Byakuya, which made her heart pound even faster. Then the music began to play.
The little flower girl walked shyly down the aisle. She was followed by Ginrei and Setsuna Kuchiki, Kaien and Miyako, and Jushiro and Shilon. Hisana felt the anxiety rise as she started down the aisle. She felt many eyes on her and that made her even more nervous. Byakuya looked at her longingly and Hisana felt her face get hot. When she arrived at the shrine Byakuya took her hands lightly and stared deep in her eyes. Hisana couldn't help but blush and advert her eyes.
The oldest elder looked at each of them and smiled. "I am so glad to be the honored soul to perform this wedding. I wish you both eternal happiness and a long fruitful marriage." Then he placed each of his hands on Byakuya and Hisana's foreheads and made them kneel. "Let you both be blessed with a joyous life together. Under the eyes of the Gods and everyone here you are made pure. Now, drink from this and make you both one." He held out a cup of sake to Byakuya. He sipped it then handed it to Hisana who also sipped the wine nervously. "Very good. Now, if you'll say a vow to your bride, My Lord."
Byakuya faced Hisana and smiled. "Before I met you, I didn't have a purpose in life. I spent my days wondering when would I feel... complete. Then I met you, and I saw so much life and love in your heart. I wanted to feel that way. And I did when I was with you. You made me feel so good and you made me want to be the best man I could be for you. Nothing and no one would make me love you less. Please, Hisana, never leave my side. If I had never know you, I would be incomplete. I love you, Hisana." Soft tears were falling from Hisana's eyes but Byakuya wiped them away.
Then they both stood again and smiled to each other lovingly. The elder was still smiling pridefully, "Lady Hisana, you will now take the role of the head Lady Kuchiki. Do you assume this position and take Lord Kuchiki to be your husband?" Hisana smiled. "I do."
"Lord Kuchiki, do take Lady Hisana to be your wife?" Byakuya smiled and squeezed Hisana's hand softly. "I do." The elder nodded. "Good. All of us here wish you everlasting fortune. Lord Kuchiki, you may kiss your bride." Byakuya wrapped his arms around Hisana's waist and puled her in for a deep kiss. There was an outburst of applause and Hisana felt herself being lifted off her feet. She linked her arms around his neck. After a few seconds, they broke apart and walked down the aisle hand in hand. This was a new beginning for both of them.
After a long photo shoot, Hisana and Byakuya were led back to the garden for the reception. They sat at an elaborate table with Kaien, Miyako, Jushiro, Shilon, Ginrei, Setsuna, and the Head Captain of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, Shigekuni Yamamoto. He was a very nice, yet strict, old man. Most of the evening was filled with polite conversation and laughter; Kaien had gotten drunk again. When the sun was setting, Hisana and Byakuya did the candle lighting ceremony in which they walked around the entire garden lighting candles at each table. It symbolized old endings and new beginnings. After that, many people gave very kind speeches. At last, when stars lit the sky, some guests left and others took rooms in the mansion. Hisana and Byakuya were shown to a more private part of the manor where they could be alone.
They prepared for bed separately. Setsuna gave Hisana a beautiful dressing gown as a wedding present. It was a pretty silver silk gown that just fell against her body. It was comfortable yet it hugged her small curves. As she stared at herself in the mirror, Byakuya walked in and stared at her deeply. The exchanged a look of pure desire since they have both been waiting this day; this moment, when they would become one.
Byakuya walked to her slowly and took some strands of her hair in his fingers and he kissed the soft tresses. His right hand went to her elbow and lifted her gently, while his left steadied her waist and pulled her close. He bent down and kissed her slowly and thoroughly. Hisana kissed back sort of shyly and her arms looped around his neck. Byakuya pulled her closer to his body and carried her gently to the bed. Once there, he laid her down softly and hovered before her.
He trailed light kisses down her neck and to her collarbone that was exposed a little. His hands roamed her body lightly and they froze at the top of her sighed as she felt his fingers fumble with the buttons and she felt his hands brush over her breasts. He only undid the buttons to her waist. Byakuya then trailed open-mouthed kisses on her chest and to her stomach. Hisana shivered with pleasure as Byakuya's mouth went back up to her pert breasts.
When Byakuya was finally bored with her chest, he stood and stripped right in front of her. Hisana blushed and adverted her eyes. When he was done undressing, he turned his attention back to Hisana. He then swiftly removed the rest of her clothing and they were both exposed to one another. Hisana's hands shyly roamed Byakuya's flawless body. Byakuya shut his eyes in pleasure and captured Hisana's lips with his own again. She moaned and melted against his body.
They moved against each other in a synchronized fashion as they both started to feel the need for more. Byakuya broke the kiss and stared deep into Hisana's eyes. "I'm sorry if I hurt you." Hisana ran a hand through his hair. "It's all right. I trust you." Byakuya steadily positioned himself at her entrance. He looked into Hisana's eyes and she nodded. She swallowed and took a breath as he entered her deeply. At that moment, there was only a strong feeling of pain and pleasure for Hisana. Tears formed in her eyes and she felt her heart race rapidly. Byakuya stroked her hair and murmured soothing words in her ear.
When she started to adjust to the feeling of him inside her, she sighed contently and he moved against her sensuously. They moved against each other rather harshly after a while then slowly and calm. They moved in this rhythmic way until they were both panting and slicked with sweat.
And them, in a burst of white light, they were one in all the ways they could be. Spiritually, physically, mentally, and sexually. They were one. Hisana couldn't describe the emotions she was feeling and nor could Byakuya. The feeling of togetherness they felt in that moment couldn't be replaced or duplicated. As they fell into a dreamless sleep, wrapped in each other's arms, they were certain, if they weren't before, that they would be together forever.
