A/N: OMG I can't believe that we actually got this far..HOLY SHIT! Oh and the Irish Crème mentioned in this chapter is a creamer that I use in my coffee, it is in no way shape or form Liquor… NO Brooke it is not liquor!!!! Once again sorry to all you Nnoitra fans some Nnoitra bashing in here, and some OOCness…plus a fluffy treat for me and Fran! This chappy switches to third person, just to warn ya!

Katie

I walked through the halls listening to my Ipod and humming along to the songs. I was really distracted and I couldn't stay on a song for more than a minute or two. It had been about two days sense Brooke had her little power jolt. Nnoitra had steered clear of Brooke after he got thrown into the wall. Poor guy, if he hadn't been such a jerk I would have felt a little sorry for him. But oh well his misery hadn't effected my life so who really cared right?

It has been a very weird few days. Aizen decided…wait for it…Grimmjow would train Brooke. I have no clue why, I think he might be losing it. But anyways it was really early in the morning and I couldn't sleep, usually this would happen to Brooke and not me. So it was really weird going around Los Noches while the whole place was still uber quiet. I finally reached the kitchen and went straight to the coffee pot. While the coffee was making, I dug around in the kitchen looking for ingredients to make an omelet. I slammed the kitchen door shut and ran into something. I looked up and saw Stark looking down at me.

"What the heck are you doing up so early" I asked walking around him to the stove.

"Am I not allowed to be up?" he questioned back. He sat down at one of the bar stools and watched me get everything ready for my breakfast. I grabbed a mixing bowl and a frying pan out from one of the cupboards and put everything I got out of the fridge into the mixing bowl. While I waited for the pan to heat up, I grabbed two cups down and poured myself a cup of coffee.

"You want one too?" I asked motioning to the half full pot. He nodded and I poured another handing it to him. "I might as well make you an omelet while I'm at it." I said sighing getting more stuff ready for a second omelet. I heard him chuckle as I dug around looking for some more ingredients. While I was doing this, I suddenly heard sizzling. Curious, I looked around the door of the fridge, and saw Stark at the stove making my omelet.

"Wtf…why are you making an omelet?" I asked. Stark just laughed at me.

"I can cook ya know, it's one of my special talents" now it was my turn to laugh.

"Sure let's go with that." I took his seat and sat watching him cook. He did a pretty damn good job at it too, which was really surprising. After he cooked both omelets, he brought over two plates and put one in front of me. He sat down next to me and we ate in a comfortable silence. I took a sip of coffee and almost spit it back out. It was plain black coffee, yuck! I liked coffee a lot, but not the straight black stuff. It was one of the most disgusting things I have ever tasted. So I decided to voice my opinion.

"Yuck I can't believe that you actually like black coffee." I said wrinkling my nose. Grabbing my cup of yummy Irish crème flavored goodness, I took a big gulp to get the icky flavor out of my mouth.

"I like it, it's better than that over flavored stuff you drink" I scowled in mock annoyance at him and he grinned.

"Well now you're just being a jerk" I said pushing my elbow into his side. We finished eating, then washed and dried the plates. After we were done, we each grabbed another cup o' coffee and sat back down on the bar stools.

"Ok so I don't think I've ever seen you up this long before." I said taking another sip from the cup in my hands.

"Well now you've seen just about everything haven't you" he said looking at me. I laughed and punched him in the arm. He gave a look of pain and grabbed his arm.

"Well that wasn't very nice of you." I rolled my eyes and took another sip of coffee.

"I don't think I've ever been up this early here either. It's actually really awesome." No wonder Brooke actually liked being up this early. All the pressure and stress was gone, all that was left was a kind of peace that I wish I could have every day. The calmness was almost unreal at this early in the morning. It was even better sharing it with someone. I realized then that I was really happy I had Stark with me. I didn't like being left alone a lot.

A crash from outside, made me jump. A few seconds later Nnoitra came in covered in sweat, without his shirt on, mumbling to himself. I glared daggers at the back of his head. Out of the corner of my eye I could see Stark watching me. Nnoitra noticed that he wasn't alone and blinked at us. He looked at me then to Stark.

"You like what ya see, woman?" he asked grinning. I scowled at him.

"Not even close, pervert. I'm more disgusted than turned on, sorry" Nnoitra glared back at me until Tesla came in.

"Master Nnoitra! Aizen-sama wishes to see you" Nnoitra broke the eye contact with me and stalked out grumbling to himself.

"Ahh!!" I said throwing my arms up in the air. "That guy drives me nuts!" I rubbed my temples trying to get the calmness back, but it wouldn't come. Well at least the peace was nice while it lasted. I slipped off my bar stool and stretched.

"Ok I have to go wake Brooke up and start on this mass chaos that is my day. Thanks for breakfast it was great" I said to Stark. I gave him a quick hug and walked to the door. Remembering what else was going on today I turned around.

"Don't forget about combat practice today either" I said grinning. Stark just waved me off lazily and I walked out of the kitchen to get the unpleasant job of waking Brooke up.

OoOOoOo

"Alright, spill what you have in mind or I'm leaving." Brooke said crossing her arms over her chest. I nodded to Lilinette and she closed my doors.

"Ok so you know how you've been complaining a lot that you want your hair cut?" I said. She nodded her head and I took out a pair of scissors. "Well today I'm gonna give ya your wish" Brooke eyed the scissors and then she was up against my door banging on it.

"NOOO!!! Someone help me!!! " She yelled. "They're gonna murder me!"

"Oh stop being a drama queen, and make up your mind. Do you want your short hair back or not?" I said. Fran who had been sitting on my bed this whole time looked up from her sketch pad. She shrugged at the scene and went back to drawing.

Brooke grumbled, weighing her options. She made up her mind and stomped over to the chair and sat down. "You cut an ear, I'll kill you" she said. I laughed and went to work on her head.

About an hour and a half later, I finished both Brooke and Fran's haircuts. Both of them looked amazing if I do say so myself. Brooke's hair was on the shorter side cut in layers ending below her ears. She tucked a strand behind said ear waiting for me to clean up the mess we made. Fran's was cut a little longer than her shoulders in really choppy layers. I straightened her hair and she was playing with it getting really antsy from sitting for so long.

"Ok children you can get out now, I have combat practice so skedaddle outa here" Brooke and Fran headed for the door talking amongst themselves. I got an idea; it was time Fran got a treat for all her hard work in Los Noches. So putting my hopeful plan into effect, I stopped Fran before she could get out the door.

"Fran! You should go show Ulqui-kun your haircut, go say I'm gonna give him one too!" Fran grinned at me, the wheels turning in her brain.

"Ok!" She went out the door to find her emo while I got ready to practice with Stark.

Third person!!!

Fran walked down the halls excitedly looking for Ulquiorra. Katie had been trying to get her and Ulquiorra together sense they got to Los Noches. So far the plan had failed to launch, but now Fran was getting bored so she decided to take things into her own hands.

The emo was in his room, folding laundry of all things. Fran walked in his open door and sat on his bed.

"So Ulqui-kun whatcha been doin today?" she asked nonchalantly. He looked at her, then folded another one of his shirts.

"What does it look like I'm doing" he said putting the folded shirt in a pile with the others.

"Well if that's all then you had a pretty boring day Ulqui-kun!" she said flopping back into a pile of his pillows.

"Not all of us can do whatever we wanted. If that happened Los Noches would turn into chaos." He said in a matter-o-factly way. Fran got annoyed and crawled over to the emo at sat firmly on his pile of unfolded laundry.

"You're on my laundry, move" he said staring at Fran.

"Oh shut up Ulquiorra, you talk too much." Fran then grabbed the front of his shirt and pulled him in for a kiss. She placed her lips softly against his. Ulquiorra was shocked at first, then started to kiss back while a small blush creeped onto his face. Fran broke the kiss and grinned at him. His blush grew and cleared his throat.

"That was unnecessary" he said. Fran seeing his blush grinned wider.

"I think you liked it." When she didn't get a response she kissed him again. His arms wrapped around her and he deepened the kiss. They broke for air and Fran laughed.

"I guess you did like it then" Ulquiorra smiled.

"I never said I didn't like it now did I" A burst of applause erupted in the room and both of them looked at the source of the noise. Katie, Lilinette, and Brooke were standing in the doorway cheering.

"YAY!!! Good job Frannie!!!!!"

"Ulqui-kun had a girlfriend!!!"

"You guys are so freakin cute!!!"

"OMG did you see him smile?!?!?! He is somewhat human after all!"

Fran laughed and Ulquiorra scowled at the three girls.

"What just happened?" Grimmjow said coming into view.

"Ulquiorra and Fran KISSED!!" Brooke said really loud.

"Ok whatever. Come on woman, it's time for training" Brooke whined about wanting to make more fun of the cosmic explosion that had just happened in Los Noches, but Grimmjow ignored her.

"Why is everyone screaming in here?" a voice said. Katie turned around and saw Nnoitra peering in the room above her.

"Ulquiorra is getting some and you aren't that's what!" Katie said rubbing it in his face as hard as she could. Nnoitra scowled at her.

"Lucky Bastard!" he muttered and left just as fast as he came.

"Come on Lilinette! Let's go spread the good news about Fran and Ulqui-kun!" Katie said. She and Lilinette ran off to share the news about Fran and Ulquiorra before either could protest.

"You have trash for friends" Ulquiorra said looking at Fran. She just shrugged and hopped off his bed.

"Yeah but they're my trash! Now I have to go and make sure that Katie and Lilinette don't blow this whole thing out of proportion. Bye Ulqui-kun!" Fran waved at the emo and left. When she was out of ear shot he finally replied.

"Goodbye Fran" Ulquiorra went back to folding his laundry thanking Aizen for one of the best days he'd had in what seemed like forever.

Katie: So what did everyone think hmm??? I thought it went pretty well.

Brooke: well now that you've hit the romance mode you can go right ahead and write some smut!

Katie: But I don't write smut!

Brooke: whatever helps you sleep at night.

Katie: oh shut up! R&R please we want to know what you think!
