Byakuya woke up to the sound of someone humming. His mind automatically came to one person who would be humming a beautiful song……..Hisana. Realization hit him hard that she was long gone and his mood turned sour. Whoever was humming were going to find themselves in deep water for this unneeded intrusion. Angrily he threw the covers off and stormed out of his room into the next looking as if he could take on a whole army of hollows, only to come to an abrupt halt in his tirade. There Rin was in all her bad dancing glory shuffling around the room in her thigh high captain uniform dress. Her hair was put up in a white bow and fell down in rivers across her shoulders and back while she was boogying around the room humming to herself. When she turned around and saw Byakuya she squeaked in surprise and dropped her documents. She quickly dropped to her knees scraping up the papers that were strewn across the wooden floor.
"Oh my gawd! I'm so sorry for waking you up, Byakuya.", she fretted over the mess, "I just got so caught up in my work that I didn't realize that I was being loud." her cheeks reddened from embarrassment.
His stunned face turned warmer and he stooped over and helped her, "It's okay, Rin. I am just not use to people humming in my home is all. There's no reason for you to apologize." he chuckled a bit.
"Uh o-okay." she smiled blushing a little more.
After everything was picked up and put away he turned his attention to her once more, "Have you eaten yet?"
She chuckled nervously, "No."
He didn't say anything but merely stared at her exasperated. He then clapped his hands and a servant rushed in looking flushed. Byakuya only had to say one word, "Food." and the servant was off again, "I do not understand why you are starving yourself, but I'm going to end it." he turned and headed for his door, "I will be back in a moment, I'm going to get dressed. When I return your food will be here and I will watch you eat every bite." with that said he left Rin in utter shock.
'Did he just say what I thought he just said?' Rin asked still in shock. She shook her head clearing her thoughts and the goofy expression on her face. He did say that, he did mean it, and he did care for her. That was all that was. She set the papers down on the table and shuffled to her seat she sat in the night before with an ungraceful plop. She put her elbows on the table and her hands held her head, she was not at all happy that he had to take time out of his busy schedule to baby-sit her. But she had brought this down on herself so she let the whole situation go. He entered the room again, in full captains uniform, and sat down beside her this time.
"What are you doing?" she asked jumping slightly.
He placed a hand on her forehead, "You have a fever. I was wondering why your spiritual pressure was a bit low today."
"H-huh? But I feel fine. It must be hot in here." she shrugged.
"No you have a bad cold starting. You need to go and rest in bed." he shook his head.
"No way!! I have too many things I got to do today, there's no time for slacking off in bed!" she was outraged.
He growled, "And there is no reason why you need to get sick over something that can be worked on later!" he stood taking her with him.
"Leggo!!" she screamed at the top of her lungs.
He growled again, "If you are going to make this difficult then I will take you to bed undignified."
"Riiight. And practically dragging me there is dignified?" she dug her heels in pulling back.
Without another word he flung her body over his shoulder and began walking to her room. She didn't kick nor scream making a big fuss, she just hung there silently growling and fuming at her dilemma.
They reached her room within moments and he opened the door, and let Rin on her feet again. After closing the door he turned his attention back to her.
"What now?" she asked impatiently.
"Lie down." he replied.
"Feh." she crossed her arms defiantly.
He shunpo in front of her, grabbed her up in his arms, and kissed her deeply. Her eyes widened in shock as her body went rigid. Their lips parted after a minute and he stepped back staring into her grey blue eyes. He immediately turned and left the room leaving her a little stunned and way more curious.
