Summary: As of late, Rangiku has been more and more depressed even though it's been four years since the defeat of Aizen's army. Ichigo has been reclusive of late since their is hardly any hollows to fight since the fall in Hueco four years ago and rarely finds anything exciting. Friends of both parties have tried everything to cheer them up and yet everything failed. In a last attempt, they bring the two of them together and it's an instantious click. But will forces of the unknown threaten to tear the relationship apart?
Update: I edited the month since I had counted it wrong. They met in late April, time skip two weeks and thats the second week in May, three week skip and the beginning of June and then four months makes it the beginning of October and pregnancy is not confirmed until basically two weeks later after conception so she wouldn't be three months yet.

Chapter 7: Passionate Sorrow...
"Well this sure wasn't the reception I anticipated..." Gin said mockingly.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" Ichigo stepped in front of Rangiku. Grasping his side, he cursed when he realized the badge was back at the shouten with Yuzu.
"Awww, Berry-Tan! You grew so much"
"Cut the bullshit! Why are you here?" Rangiku said from behind Ichigo yelling.
Grinning, Gin drew his sword out of his sleeve.
"Oh shit! Run!" Grabbing his arm, Rangiku pulled him out of the alley before they could be pierced by Shinso. Running down the street, she took a minute to catch her breath.
"What the hell is he doing here!"
"How the fuck am I supposed to know? As far as we knew he was dead! There was no record of him in Hueco Muendo!"
"As far as what? Hueco Muendo!"
"Look, when we get back to the shouten I'll explain but right now we need to run!" Taking off, Rangiku squeaked when she was lifted off her feet.
Grabbing her, Ichigo picked her up and ran as the sword pierced the light pole next to them. Skidding in the middle of the street, the waving of hands grabbed his attention. Running down the street, both were pulled into an alley.
"Next time let us know were you two run off to." Opening a door, Urahara rushed them in before following them and sealing it.
"Awww, they got away... Not to fear. They'll be caught." Gin said grinning sadistically.
"Thanks Urahara." Sliding down against the wall, Ichigo closed his eyes and breathed in relief.
"Urahara, can I get a moment with Ichigo?"
"Sure, we'll be down the hall if you need us." Urahara said solemnly before closing the door behind him.
Bowing to them, Rangiku shut the door closed. Turning back to Ichigo, she pulled him up and into her.
"What the hell?"
"Quiet." Kissing him, she relished the feeling of his hands relaxing on her hips. "We just escaped near death and I have a huge adrenaline rush right now from it..."
"Damn it woman, you're going to be the death of me." Kissing her again, he pinned her against the wall, pinning her with his weight.
"Then let me so you can come and live with me in Soul Society." Breaking away, she pushed him off and took off her shirt.
Pausing for a second, Ichigo pulled back from her. "Rangiku... What the hell is going on with you? Why are you acting this way all of a sudden?"
"Make me yours..."
"Your not in the right state of mind. I can't..."
"Look at my eyes, do I look like I don't know what I want?"
Ichigo avoided them.
"Ichigo. Look at me."
Daring to look into her eyes, he saw no uncertainty... She was serious.
"I mean it... I'm here to see you against the orders of the soul society. No one was supposed to leave but I didn't care... I needed to see you. I needed to see you again... I needed to badly..."
"Damn it." Drawing her close, he shut her up effectively by kissing her. Slipping his hands up her back, he lowered his mouth to her shoulder blade and started biting her hard, leaving dark bruises along peach colored flesh. Trailing downwards, he stopped at her collarbone and kissed back up to the side of her lips.
Moaning, Rangiku tossed her head back and arched into his touch. "Mmm, tease..." Glaring at him, she brought him back down for another kiss.
Removing her bra, he pinned her up against the wall forcing her to wrap her legs around him.
"Ichigo!"Breaking away from the kiss, Rangiku let out a breathy sigh of pleasure.
"Please... Let me show you that you don't have to worry anymore."
Grabbing his face again, she brought him into a kiss. "Ichigo..."
Moving away from her lips, he lowered them to the side of her neck being gentler with her this time. Tracing the planes of her body with his fingers, his tongue soon followed after with him supporting her with his hands.
Every thought in her head was swimming with thoughts of what was about to happen. The fact that she went against direct orders of the head captain, ambushing the OnmitsukidÅ members, and plus on top of that, disobeyed her captain had all left her mind. "Ah!" Moaning again, she looked down to see Ichigo encase her already sensitive nipple is his mouth and tweak the others in between his fingers. Letting the waves of lust wash over her, when she couldn't take it no more, she pulled him up and rushed him back into a feverish kiss.
This time it was Ichigo who let out a noise Grabbing the mini skirt, he hooked a finger into the waist band of her underwear as well and ripped them off in one setting. Tossing the destroyed garments to the floor, he teased her entrance lightly with the tip of his fingers through the sheer lacy underwear.
The sudden feeling of pleasure rushed over her as she nearly drew blood from his shoulders. "No fair, you're still dressed."
"Well, I have to remedy that right?" Placing her down on the near by crates, his shirt came off first followed by the jeans.
Shaking lightly, Rangiku couldn't tear her eyes away from the massive bulge in the teens pants. Sliding down on her knees, she crawled over to him and rose. Touching the sensitive area, she heard him hiss from above. Rubbing gently in circles, a small smirk formed on peach lips as the noise that fell from the orange haired teen's lips excited her more. "Someone is enjoying this... This is payback for the torture earlier."
"Heh, tease... You can't wait?" Bring her up, he set her down on the crates and spread her legs. "Now I will teach you the meaning of torture."
"Wait, aren't all shinigami supposed to be in Sereitei? Then how the hell did Rangiku get down here."
Urahara sighed and scratched the back of his head before looking at Yuzu. "By the looks of it, she probably disobeyed orders. I do not like the probable outcome of this situation."
A scream caught them all off guard.
"Yoruichi..."
Nodding, the young woman stealthy moved out of the room and down the dark corridors. Coming to the door where they left Ichigo and Rangiku, she was able to open it silently with ease. Peaking in, she nearly wanted to slam the door but closed it silently and went back to the room.
"Well?"
Looking down, she blushed slightly. "It's best right now if we leave them alone..."
A loud moan confirmed what she was about to say. (A/N: Yes I'm avoiding the sex scene for right now! ./. I think that I need help with it so yes... No sex scene for you till later!)
"In any case, mind telling me what the hell was up with that freak eyes?"
"Who? Gin?" Urahara said.
Kukaku took a smoke from her pipe again before she spoke. "His eyes... They were gold and I don't mean normal..."
"Like Ms Yoruichi's?" Yuzu asked.
"Not at all... More or less, like he was possessed."
"Could be very likely so... In either case, he's still a threat and right now, we have to worry about soul society coming after us for Rangiku..."
Moaning loudly, Ichigo slid to the floor and held Rangiku to him. Breathing harshly, he kissed her on the lips again. "Damn it, I swear..."
Smiling, she rested on Ichigo and closed her eyes. "Thank you."
Looking down, he smiled and held her. "I love you."
"What?" Opening her eyes, she stared into warm brown ones.
"Are you tone death?" He laughed. "I love you."
Threatening to break out in tears, she hugged him. "Thank you Ichigo... Thank you for understanding." Then a thought occurred to her but afraid of breaking the tender moment she kept it to herself. 'Dammit, I forgot it was close to that time of the month. I'll do something about it when I get back to the Soul Society.'
Lightly tracing the markings on her back, he sighed. "We should get Yuzu to look at them..."
"There will be no need for that."
Cringing, Rangiku looked up to see her captain and for that matter at least two more behind him. Lowering her eyes, she closed them.
"Hey! Privacy is liked here!" Ichigo stated.
"Hush." Toushirou hadn't meant for his voice to be so harsh but right now it wasn't the time to be considerate.
The tone alone shut the teen up.
"Lieutenant Matsumoto..." The tenth captain started.
"May I at least get dressed?"
"Here." Yuzu came in with a set of pants and underwear for her. "I had Urahara send me back to the house to pick them up for you. Glad he did."
"Yuzu..."
"Yes nii-san?" She said while staring at Ichigo's face.
"A moment..."
Kneeling next to them, she noticed that her brother was pointing to a raised scar upon Rangiku's back. Nodding, she covered her hands with a white light again before lowering them and placing them on the scar, avoiding looking anywhere else except there. Frowning, it took a bit more concentration but the scar was finally gone.
"Thanks... Um," Rangiku blushed.
"What?"
"Mind if we had a bit of privacy? I'm sure you don't want to see Ichigo's..."
"Everyone out now!" Pushing the small captain out, Yuzu winked and closed the door.
"Well thank god for your sister." Getting up, Rangiku's back reminded her of their current activities. "Damn it... I'm too old for this."
"Don't look like it."
A slap on the butt made her blush and glare at the same time. Sliding on the new underwear and jeans given, she looked ruefully at the torn skirt on the floor. "You're lucky I have another one."
"And you're lucky I don't take you right here again. Screw the others outside the door." Grabbing her, he pulled the blushing and yet smirking lieutenant to his chest.
"Uh-un, this girl is already in more then enough trouble. Calm down boy." Bending over, she jumped out of the way before Ichigo's hand could connect with her backside. Slipping on the rest of her garments, she sighed. "Ichigo, you know I won't be able to see you for a while."
"Why?"
"... Look, just know that Sereitei was locked down and well... I disobeyed orders straight from the head captain."
"Damn it..." Walking over to Rangiku with his shirt in his hand, he grabbed the lieutenant by her waist. Pulling her in again, he lowered his mouth to hers. (A/N: MOVIE SHOT! lol)
Moaning into the kiss, she broke it off. "I-I need to go."
Nodding, he opened the door and escorted her out.
"Decency would be nice."
"So of you taking that stick out of your ass Kuchki. And by the way, would anyone like to tell me what the hell is going on? Because I don't think it should have taken this long for me to know that shit was brewing in the Soul Society." Ichigo nearly snarled.
"There back as you saw." Nel stepped forward, dressed in her white outfit.
"Who?" He was shocked to see the espada woman in front of him.
"Aizen and them. That was no illusion, Gin is alive as well as a few of the espada from what we believe. Soul society was on lock down to prevent any type of circumstances like this but... Well it was unfortunate." By the look of her face, she and Rangiku shared some hidden knowledge of what was going on. Extending her hand, she took Rangiku's. "Say your good byes, it'll be a while before you can see each other."
Nodding, she turned to Ichigo and smiled grimly. "You heard them... That's what has been keeping us locked up."
"Lieutenant Matsumoto not only disobeyed direct orders from the head captain but also attacked fellow members." Toushirou stood his ground even though four set of eyes were on him.
Byakuya, though upset by the comment earlier looked back at Ichigo.
Looking down at Rangiku, he touched the pendant around her neck. "Don't ever forget that I'm with you."
"I never did." Kissing him again, she pulled out of his embrace and walked over to the others.
"When we get back..."
"It'll be whatever... Sooner I get my punishment the sooner I can get the hell back to work." She said not even looking at Toushirou.
Both Nel and Ichigo flinched at her tone, Byakuya just raised an eyebrow.
Growling, Toushirou opened a senkaimon behind him.
"Wait!"
Pausing, the ice captain turned back to him.
"Just one favor, I want to be notified of anything that occurs with the espadas or any arrancar. There back now and since I'm the only one on guard duty I would like to be warned before hand."
Face palming himself for forgetting, Toushirou agreed . "Fine, but ONLY if there's a discussion on them."
"Which will most likely be most meetings."
"Matsumoto!" Toushirou didn't want to yell at her, but she was already in enough trouble.
Giving a longing look to Ichigo, she turned and entered the portal.
Sighing, Nel followed behind her and soon Byakuya.
"... Try not to be too hard." Ichigo said as Toushirou walked past her.
"Its not up to me and you know that. If it was, then I figure as much seeing as it was you she wanted to see then I wouldn't... I'll try." With that, the white haired captain stepped into the portal and sealed it behind him.
"Well... Lets get this show on the road and start prepping. Your dad and Karin have already been notified to come here to discuss on the issues." Urahara said seriously as he approached the teen who was sliding his tee shirt on.
"Yea lets, that bastard Gin has a thing or two coming for him..."
"Good work Gin! I never expected that you rile them up that easily."
"It was no problem, I never expected though to see the orange haired freak and the harlot together." Gin said off-handily.
"Its no concerning matter to us..." Aizen waved his hand dismissively as he watched the monitors.
"So you wouldn't mind if I took her as my slave?"
"Sex slave? My have you become sadistic." Aizen said as turned in his chair and grinned.
"That's all she's really good for anyway."
"Fine, I permit it... For the time being though, lets watch them squirm..."
(A/N: I'm doing a bit of a time skip to progress the story folks :3)
Three months...
"Lieutenant, you have a visitor."
"Let them in."
The guards stepped aside to show Captain Hinamori and Dawn behind them. Raising a hand, they bowed and left the area.
"How are you today?"
"Fine, come and sit." She smiled warmly as she pulled out chairs for her visitors.
Sitting down, Dawn placed a box of cookies on her desk followed by a tea pot and three tea cups. "A little chat would do you good."
"How has everything been? It's been a while since we had time to sit and talk."
"So true. With all hell breaking loose and our punishment, how could we?"
"At least gave you two time to prioritize." Dawn smiled as she took a sip of her tea.
Flipping her off, Rangiku gave a snort before eating a cookie. "These are good, what are they?"
"Sugar cookies. We thought you might like them. Christmas has passed and I know it wasn't really that great for you so we brought some cookies that human's make during the time!"
"Nice to see you here Momo, she needed the company." Walking in the door, Toushirou greeted his old friend with a smile before turning to his lieutenant. "You have them?"
"Here sir." Brushing off her hands, she gave him the signed papers before picking up another cookie. "Would you like one? Their pretty good captain."
"I'll pass for now, save some though and when I mean save I don't mean nearly eat the whole thing." Toushirou said jokingly.
"Hey!" Before she could protest, her captain was far gone from the place.
Giggling, Momo kept quiet before squealing.
"Oh no... I know that tone..."
"Sooo..."
Rngiku gave a warning look to her.
Dawn looked between the two woman. "What the hell?"
"How was he?"
"God damn it!"
"What? It was obvious that you enjoyed it!" Momo pointed out.
"You weren't there!"
"Nel told me!"
"Why did you listen?"
"Cause it was interesting!"
"What are you two talking about?"
Momo looked at Dawn before whispering in her ear.
Blushing, Dawn quickly refilled her cup and stayed silent. "... Pervert."
"Oh come on! I want details! As the maid of honor..."
Both Rangiku and Dawn spit their tea out. "Have you gone nuts?"
"A little batty yes."
"Stupid." Taking a sip of her tea, Rangiku grinned before burping and groaning. "Ugh, my stomach!"
"Fat ass."
"Don't talk Dawn." Groaning even more as she stretched her back, she got up and sighed. "I'm going to lay on the couch and..."
"Lieutenant."
Looking over to the door, Unohana stood with Toushirou next to her. "Hello there Taichou, nice to see you."
"Same here, your captain had happened to stop by to inform me on something. It seems that you've been sleeping alot lately?"
"Not more then usual."
"And eating alot?"
"Told you that you were a fatass." Dawn said smirking.
"Bitch!" Slapping her upside the head, a play fight began between the two of them before the taller pinned the dark haired girl to the floor. "I won! Oh crap." Falling over to the side, Rangiku put her hand to her head and laid there.
"Ran? You ok?"
"Yea, just fine." Trying to sit up, the strawberry blonde became dizzy and laid back down.
"Rangiku, what is wrong?" Kneeling next to her, Momo placed her head on her lap.
"Hmmm." Kneeling next to her, Unohana focused on something that the others didn't realise. "Oh my..."
"What?" Toushirou was next to the both of them staring down at his lieutenant. "Is she ok?"
Smiling, she looked up to the other three. "Oh she's fine... Besides the fact that she's pregnant."
Sitting up, Rangiku felt like the wind was knocked out of her. "WHAT?"
"It's true. It's slight but your spirit pressure is mixing in with a sort of dense one... Not one that I clearly recognize but I've seen before."
"But who has a spiritual pressure like that?"
"Kurosaki's..." Toushirou said as he tuned in and was slightly able to feel it. "I see what you mean. How far along is she?"
"Give or take she's going into the middle of her second month."
"Oh god! Does he know?"
"Uh what do you think Rangiku? Only news we tell him is of recent hollow attacks and crap." Dawn knawed on her finger nervously at the sudden news.
"Well he's going to know soon enough." Unohana furrowed her brows.
"What do you mean?"
"His spiritual energy is different."
"Cause of his hollow right?" Momo softly stroked the shocked lieutenant's hair.
"Yes, that being said, the further she progresses, the stronger it will be and the more chance he might pick it up."
"Even from here?" Rangiku settled her hands on her abdomen.
"Possibly... We'll monitor the situation." Getting up, Unohana pulled Toushirou lightly into a another room to talk privately.
Looking down towards her mid-section, Rangiku smiled sadly. 'My little one... Even though facts are facts, you may possibly never see your dad...'
A/N: Sorry first for skipping the sex scene, so not comfortable with that right now. And secondly for the seemingly OCC'ness and I promise that I'll return them to somewhat normal (or as normal as Aizen and Gin can get.. Deranged assholes).
Gin: What was that?
O_O *runs*
Gin: *follows*
Renji and Rukia: *sigh*
