Perfection Chapter 11

Hotaru Muraki, thanks for reviewing and for telling me that Pfennig (the name my autocorrect had decided to give Renji last chapter) is actually a coin once used in Germany! Also, Rocky-hime, yukino76, thanks for reviewing! I haven't been able to get back at you guys, but reviews are my life force XD

Anyways, an important announcement- The setting of this story is somewhere in the earlier stages of Bleach, where Karin and Yuzu do not know about shinigami, and Isshin hasn't been revealed as one yet. So please ignore what I'd said earlier in chapter 6, I've fixed that. I hope I haven't confused you guys.


Ichigo was waiting inside the classroom for Byakuya. Suddenly-

"Oh! Kurosaki-kun!" Someone exclaimed. He turned to see Orihime standing in the doorway, with Tatsuki behind her.

"Hey." He said.

"What's this, Ichigo? Landed detention already?" Tatsuki asked him, grinning widely.

"Nah, I'm waiting here for Byakuya." He informed her.

"Oooh, are you? Make sure to lock the door first~" She said and slapped Ichigo on his back appreciatively.

"Don't be an ass. Besides, that's exactly what Renji told me before! What, are you guys holding meetings on how to irritate me?" Ichigo asked her hotly, but a bit amused that everyone seemed to be jumping to the same conclusions.

"Um, Tatsuki-chan, we should go. We don't want to disturb Kurosaki-kun and Kuchiki-san!" Orihime said, holding a book in her hand. She had most probably come back to retrieve it.

"Inoue, I just said-" He started.

"Yeah yeah, live in denial. We all know why you're here." Tatsuki teased him further.

"Fuck off." Ichigo said, crossing his arms underneath his chest.

"Okay, we'll leave you alone, but remember, stay safe!" She gave him one last jab and was out, with Orihime behind her.

"Remember to not make much noise, Kurosaki-kun! Orikasa-sensei will be on patrol today!" Orihime said brightly, waving at Ichigo, who just turned his head away and mumbled something about 'dumbasses who always have their minds in the gutter'.


"Orihime." Tatsuki said when they were out of the classroom and away from Ichigo's earshot.

"Yes, Tatsuki-chan?" Orihime asked her, puzzled. Tatsuki stopped walking and turned to face her.

"Are you okay with...this? About Ichigo? I mean, he obviously...,.." She asked her, trailing off at the end, hoping Orihime'd get it. She was worried about her friend because she knew how much Orihime liked Ichigo. Orihime smiled sweetly at her.

"I'm okay! Kurosaki-kun deserves the best, and I'm happy for him!" She replied cheerily. But they both knew she wasn't 'okay'.

"You should find someone else, you know"

"I know. I hope I do soon!"

Tatsuki just smiled softly. She hoped Orihime would find a person who'd love her as well.


Byakuya had just left the staffroom, but his mood was sour. He walked briskly and reached the classroom where Ichigo was supposed to wait. He was just about the open to door when it opened right in his face, and Ichigo stepped out, only to collide head first into Byakuya, and nearly fall in the other's arms. Lightly blushing, Ichigo steadied himself.

"There you are. I was nearly ready to go drag you out."

"I apologize, I was a little too absorbed in conversation with Murasaki-sensei."

"Fine, fine. Now can we go home already?"

"Actually, Ichigo, I had other...plans, or you might say, certain ideas on how to utilize the empty classroom..."

"Oh?" Ichigo asked, raising one eyebrow. He had a rather good idea of what Byakuya meant, but it would be fun to act innocent for once.

"But regrettably, a lot of students have managed to land detention today, so Orikasa-sensei will be patrolling." Byakuya finished, looking like he really regretted it.

"Too bad." Ichigo said with a straight face, but inwardly he was disappointed as well. "But, if we're quick enough-" He started again, hopefully, abandoning all pretenses of innocence this time.

"Where will be the fun in doing it quickly? I'd rather do it slow..." Byakuya trailed off suggestively.

"You're a pervy old man. Besides, when did the great Byakuya Kuchiki start to care about having fun?" Ichigo asked, sitting down on the teachers desk.

"Since he met a rather idiotic man with orange hair, who drilled the idea of fun in his head." Byakuya said, standing upright by the window.

"Ooh, touché. By the way, no comments about the 'pervy old man' part?" Ichigo asked him, surprised he hadn't denied the allegations.

"Seeing as I am both, there is no need to make comments." Byakuya said flatly.

"So, you just confessed to being pervy?" Ichigo demanded of him.

"Of course. And an old man as well." Byakuya said, smirking at Ichigo

"Old man? You? Have you seen Okaiyu-sensei?" Okaiyu sensei was a man who, according to rumors, was missing a lung and a kidney. He was ancient being, at least a century old.

"You seem to forget that I'm a shinigami. My age is 242 years old, and Okaiyu-sensei, from what I've seen of him, is rather old, but not that much." Byakuya confessed.

"Holy crap. I'm 17!"

"Yes, I'm well aware of that."

"Hang on...that makes you a pedo!"

"...I'd rather you not phrase it like that."

"The truth sucks, huh?"

"On the other hand, it also means that you are dating a man 225 years your senior."

"...Okay, I'll be honest here, that's disturbing."

"So let us change the topic."

At this very moment, Orikasa-sensei chose to open the door rather violently. Her face was stern and it looked like she was probably expecting to see students huddled around reading porno or something like that. But the moment she saw Byakuya, she got a little surprised but quickly recollected herself.

"Oh, Sensei, I didn't know you were here! You have a detention?" She asked him.

"No, I was merely discussing something important with this student." The look on Byakuya's face told Ichigo that he didn't like her very much. She'd either tried to flirt with him or told him stories about her god awful cat. He remembered when she had substitution with them, she'd wasted the whole fucking class talking about her cat which was apparently her 'fluffy snuggly-wuggly little bundly-wundly ball of joy'. Seriously, if she wasn't that good at teaching when she got serious, the principal would've kicked her out long back.

"Oh, then I'll leave you at it. Sorry for the interruption!" She said and left, slamming the door in the exact same violent manner.

"You don't like her?" Ichigo questioned Byakuya, who was staring at the door which she'd just slammed.

"Not particularly. Why?"

"It's just that when you were talking to her, your face kinda said that you disliked her."

"That is...rather observant of you, Kurosaki Ichigo."

"By the way, why don't you always call me Ichigo?" Ichigo said it lightly, but it was a serious question.

"I like your full name. It means 'the one who protects the dark corner', and it is a rather fitting name for you. It somehow...screams you."

Ichigo said nothing, he didn't know what to reply.

"But, if you prefer, I can call you Strawberry." Byakuya said with a straight face. Ichigo glared at him. Byakuya stared back.

"If you do, I'll make sure It'll be the last thing you ever say." Ichigo threatened.

"Now, Ichigo, we should leave before Orikasa-sensei comes by again and decides to regale us with her terribly amusing stories about her cat."

Oh. So the cat stories it was. Ichigo felt rather sorry for Byakuya.

"C'mon then. Today, I'm gonna annihilate you in gaming!"

And, of course, Ichigo was the one who was annihilated.


"Captain! Captain Kuchiki!" Someone was yelling outside the house. Byakuya was currently reading a manga that Ichigo had forced upon him, called 'Death Note'. The name might be a little ominous (the manga certainly was) but it was also rather good. There were soul reapers in the story. Byakuya had nearly laughed upon seeing how the humans pictured them, but had composed himself quickly. He couldn't let the famous stoic Kuchiki mask shatter over just a manga, could he? Hearing the yells, Byakuya looked up with a frown. He went to the window, and opened it to see Rangiku standing there. As yelling was beneath him, he went down the stairs and opened the door.

"What is it?" He asked her. She looked very excited.

"Me and Yumichika are going shopping! Since you've been to the stores with Ichigo before, could you come with us?"

"No." He said curtly and was about to shut the door when she wedged her foot in between.

"Aw, come on! Please?" She begged.

"Take Inoue Orihime with you." He ordered.

"She's at her part time job!" She whined.

"Very sorry to hear that." He said, and managed to force her foot away and shut the door. He could hear her muffled cries of 'meanie' outside.

"Who was that psycho?" Ichigo said, thumping down the stairs lazily, his hair mussed up like he'd just rolled around in bed for a good thirty minutes.

"Matsumoto" He answered, his eyes trailing Ichigo who had plopped down on the couch. "Were you sleeping? He asked, seeing Ichigo yawn widely.

"Nah, I'm not crazy enough to sleep at 6:00 in the evening. Homework can be really tiring, you know. Especially the one you gave." Ichigo said with a shake of his head, grumbling out the last part. "So, what did Rangiku-san want?"

"Me to assist her in her shopping."

"I hope you said no. That woman will drag you around till you faint from exhaustion."

"I did."

"So, how's the manga?"

"Surprisingly good."

"Told you you'd like it!"

"You finally displayed good choice in something, Strawberry."

"You ass-" Ichigo jumped up from the sofa, all traces of sleepiness gone, and glaring at Byakuya with the intent to kill leaking out of him. Byakuya simply looked at him amusedly. Ichigo debated whether to throttle him or let it go, and decided on the latter.

"I swear, you say that one more time and I promise..." He trailed off dangerously.

"I seem to recall that you had said that if I called you Strawberry, that'd be the last thing I ever say. Not very good at keeping promises, are you?" Byakuya said mockingly.

"You're lucky I like you." Ichigo said before turning away. Byakuya sneaked up behind him and wrapped his arms around his broad back. Ichigo started, surprised and then roughly turned around to embrace Byakuya. He started moving his hands, feeling every inch of Byakuya's body, who groped back in return, before moving his lips to capture Ichigo's in a deep kiss.

"Ahem." Came a voice from the doorway. They jolted, immediately unwrapping from each other, a fine blush upon their faces. Karin was standing there, a smirk on her lips.

"Excuse me." Said Byakuya, and left, probably heading to his own room.

"So, Ichi-nii." She said, a hand upon her waist.

"Uh, yeah, see, well, errr" Ichigo stammered like a fool, having no idea whatsoever on what to say. Karin just grinned at him.

"Now you have absolutely no leverage against me and Toshiro." She said, smirking evilly.

"So you guys are dating!" Ichigo exclaimed.

"Maybe, maybe not." She said cryptically. "But let's make a deal. You don't mention Toshiro to Dad and Yuzu again, and I don't mention what I just saw."

"Agreed."

"Shake on it." They shook hands, rather seriously, like they were finalizing a business deal. "And by the way, nice choice, landing someone like Byakuya-san!" She said, patting him the shoulder, very proud of him. "It's what every little sister dreams of, to see her brother living happily ever after with a handsome prince..." She continued, pretending to wipe away some imaginary tears.

"Oh, shut up." Ichigo muttered darkly, but relieved she hadn't made a big deal out of it.

"Frankly, it was always a bit obvious, but to see it happen..." She trailed off, her voice laden with fake emotion. She would become a great actress someday.

"Oh? What's obvious, Karin-chan?" Yuzu asked innocently, entering the room.

"That Byakuya-san would kick Ichi-nii's ass at gaming~" Karin said, looking at Ichigo sideways.

"Hey! He kicked your ass too!" Ichigo complained, but inwardly appreciated her deft change of topic.

"Now, now, Karin-chan, Onii-chan, keep on practicing and I'm sure you'll defeat him!" Yuzu said brightly and hurried off, remembering that she'd not yet finished studying for tomorrow's exam.

Karin waited till she was out of earshot and started interrogating Ichigo.

"When did you start dating?"

"I...don't know? Definitely after he came to stay here, though"

"Was it love at first sight, like in those crappy movies Yuzu watches?"

"Probably not, as we tried to kill each other the first three times we met."

"That's cool. Hate turned love, huh? So, how'd you realize you like each other?"

"I...don't know?"

"Geez, Ichi-nii, you're hopeless. When did you realize you like him?"

"I have no idea...wait, why the hell are you asking me this?"

"Felt like it."

"That's not an excuse!"

She stuck her tongue out at him.

"Whatever, you guys can continue~" She left, calling out behind her, and walked into her room and shut the door.

Jeez...Ichigo rubbed his head. Karin was cool with it, and that was a relief. Ichigo too stalked off to Byakuya's room. He stood outside and knocked. Byakuya's voice told him to come in.

"Hey." Ichigo said. Byakuya was seated on the bed, face scrunched up as he tried to figure out how to open the juice box Ichigo had given him earlier. Ichigo sighed, pronounced him to be as hopeless as his sister, and pierced the box with the straw and gave it to him.

"Thank you." Byakuya said, taking a hesitant sip. He looked fucking adorable.

"No problem, genius. Anyways, I talked to Karin, and she's cool with it, but in exchange for keeping quiet, I can never mention Toshiro in front of Dad and Yuzu again."

"I'm sorry."

"Don't be, she's cool. Even said that it was a bit obvious. Was it?"

"...I hope not."

"Huh." Ichigo sat down next to Byakuya, and removed the juice box he was drinking from.

"Let's continue from where we left off." He said, and kissed him. Byakuya tasted of orange. Ichigo licked Byakuya's lower lip. Byakuya pushed him down. Ichigo stared up at him in surprise. Byakuya just stared at him with heavy-lidded eyes, once limpid but now cloudy with desire.

"I will top, Ichigo." He said, and began taking off Ichigo's clothes, slowly, seductively, his fingers brushing all the right places, making Ichigo squirm.

"My sisters are here, idiot!" Ichigo said, trying to sit up.

"I'll take responsibility and silence you."

Ichigo gulped, heart beating loud in anticipation. He realized that Byakuya was fully clothed, in contrast to his own nakedness. He reached out and started taking off his clothes, rough hands calloused from years of wielding a sword brushing against soft, smooth, unscarred skin that looked cold but was warm. Byakuya shivered a little at his touch. It turned Ichigo on even more.

Once they were both completely naked, Byakuya turned his attention to Ichigo's nipples, licking at one. Ichigo moaned in response.

"Quiet, Ichigo." Byakuya said, bringing a finger to Ichigo's lips to silence him. He continued licking at the pert nipples, his tongue going round and round, swirling about. As Ichigo moaned again, Byakuya flipped them over. Ichigo straddled Byakuya, and immediately positioned himself over the erect cock.

"What about preparation?" Byakuya asked, his voice husky.

"Fuck that." Ichigo growled, his eyes a shade darker. He lowered himself , Byakuya's cock entering him. Byakuya bucked up. Ichigo moaned at the feeling. Byakuya closed his eyes, barely containing his own moan.

"Be quiet, Ichigo." He said.

"Make me." Ichigo said.

"Gladly." Byakuya's hand latched itself on Ichigo's soft hair and brought him down to connect their lips in a kiss.


Byakuya'd climaxed first, squirting the sticky hotness inside Ichigo, who came at that feeling. Now they'd both quickly worn some clothes, preparing to enter the shower (not together, of course) Ichigo left the room first, a smell of sex wafting around him, spoiling all his attempts to be discreet. As he shut the door, he saw a note taped to it. It read:-

"Hey, Ichi-nii and Byakuya-san, you guys seemed rather busy, so I didn't interrupt, but I'm leaving for soccer practice and Yuzu's going for piano classes. Enjoy, stay safe! - Karin"

Well, shit.

Might as well shower with Byakuya now.


Hey hey, did you guys know that Murcielago (Ulqui's zanpakuto, anyone?) is also the name of a type of Lamborghini? I didn't, but now that I do, I'm definitely buying it (once I have the money, that is) Anyways, I'm off to search whether there's any Lamborghini called Pantera or not! (There better be one, or else Lambo is receiving a long, angry letter from me...)

Whatcha think of da smex scene? Bad? I tried, I truly did! *tears up*

Also , thought of making Byakuya read Bleach instead, but it'd be a bit too meta and readers might get confused so I decided on Death Note.

Ciao, don't forget to review! *runs away*
