"Shiro-chan?"

"Quit using that nickname!"

"Do you think that either of us will become captains?"

"…How should I know?"

"It was just a thought. I mean, it would be pretty stressful, wouldn't it? We'd have to do the paperwork, organise our divisions, go to meetings, and do a lot of other stuff too. Aizen-taicho is amazing that he can still get through an entire day with a smile on his face all the time."

"It's only because the fool is optimistic."

"Aizen-taiho isn't a fool! He's a very kind, heroic, amazing captain."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever, bedwetter."

"Hey, don't call me that!"

"Not until you stop calling me 'Shiro-chan'!"

"But it still suits you."

"If I recall correctly, you said you would stop calling me 'Shiro-chan' once I started attending the academy. Not only have I done that, I graduated years ago!"

"Aww, but Shiro-"

"No, not again! Hey, why are you laughing?"

"Because you're cheeks have gone bright pink, Shiro-chan!"

"Ugh, stop! And I'm not blushing!"

"Yes you are!"

"I'm not! It's hot out today."

"I know you hate heat, but that's not why you're cheeks are pink."

"…"

"…"

"…Are you always going to call me 'Shiro-chan'?"

"Maybe…but if you become a captain, I'll have to start referring to you as 'Hitsugaya-taicho', won't I? I guess that would mean I won't always be calling you 'Shiro-chan' if that were to happen."

"Of course."

"But, out of the two of us, I think you're more likely to become a captain."

"…"

"You have leadership qualities - like your commitment to tasks, even if at times you don't show it - and the fact that you have a powerful zanpukto. Not only that, you almost have your bankai too. I can just see you, Shiro-chan, with a haori. It'll almost be the same colour as your hair…But, if you did become a captain, we probably wouldn't be able to see each other as much. In fact, if either of us became captains, we'd probably be too busy to even talk to each other, let along spend time together like we do now."

"It won't happen."

"Huh?"

"I highly doubt I'll be the next captain. However, even if I did become a captain, I'd still come see you, dummy."

"Shiro-"

"I'd make time. Besides, the lieutenant and third seat are supposed to do a majority of the paperwork. Captains only fill out the important paperwork and do the other jobs that require only a few days of the week. It might not be as frequent, but I'd come see you whenever I could…and you better be referring to me as 'Hitsugaya-taicho' every time I see you!"

"…Yes, of course. Would you really come see me whenever you are free?"

"Yes, always."

AN: Woot, two updates! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! :)
