Chapter 15; The truth about strawberries.
Ichigo pulls on his sleeping robe, grabs his zanpaktou and walks to the navy blue colored partition separating him and Byakuya's rooms. His habit of sneaking back to his room before the house servants woke insures the secrecy of their newfound relationship.
"Does it bother you? Hiding it?"
"No." Turning around his breath catches in his throat. Byakuya is laying naked on his stomach across the bed with his head resting in his palm. "I know it's necessary, for you."
"For me?" Byakuya's deep blue eyes shift towards the main door. He knows any minute his chief house servant will walk through that door to wake him.
"Isn't it?" Ichigo's amber eyes flick over to Byakuya's firm, bare, bottom. "Tch, He just wakes up looking so damn good. Pisses me off."
"You are mistaken, my Nobara-tan." Byakuya looks over at Ichigo with a crooked grin.
"N-Nobara-tan?" Ichigo blushes crimson at Byakuya calling him by a pet name. "Wild Rose?" Ichigo is distracted enough that Byakuya flash steps from the bed, grabs Ichigo, then returns to the bed with Ichigo under him in one effortless movement."Oi! Just because I-I let you be t-the top..." Ichigo stutters as Byakuya slips his hands inside to touch the warm skin of his defined chest.
"Ichigo means strawberry...a strawberry is a rose."
"Fruits and flowers are girly! I'm still a guy even though-"
Byakuya leans his head down and bites down on Ichigo's thin silk belt.
"What was I saying?"
"You were scolding me for calling you Nobara-tan." Byakuya says his voice muffled by the belt hanging from his mouth. "Please continue..." Byakuya pulls his head up loosening the belt around Ichigo's waist.
"Bastard! He actually likes it when I bitch at him. I'll-"
Before Ichigo can finish his thoughts the chamber's main door opens. Ichigo yanks a sheet over Byakuya exposed backside just in time. Rukia stands at the door her eyes basking in the view of her brother laying over a half undressed Ichigo with a red belt hanging from his mouth.
"Good morning nii-sama."
Ichigo blinks speechless as Rukia walks in and hands Byakuya an envelope, then walks back to the door. (Like it's perfectly normal to walk in on this kind of thing) Before shutting the door she turns quickly giving her brother a thumbs-up."Wait to go nii-sama! I'm waving invisible little duckie flags!"
Byakuya places his elbows on each side of Ichigo's hips as the small red belt sways in his teeth. Opening the letter his sultry eyes move up and down reading it. Ichigo watches him carefully, the stoic expressions, and his quiet personality, have been a calming influence on the sudden changes in his normally chaotic lifestyle. However, Renji's confession plagues his mind, like a dark cloud hanging over Ichigo's head. "If I ask him about it, will he get mad? Will he push me away? I don't want that! I... care about him. I might even..."
"Hey, Byakuya."
"Hmm?"
"I want to ask you somethin-" Ichigo stops as a small smile stretches across Byakuya's handsome face. "Oh, is it good news?"
"Orihime is having a girl, she is due in three months."
"I thought that-" "He helped them leave... that's like him." "That's great Byakuya."
Feeling the gentle touch of Ichigo's hand lifting his hair back from his face. Byakuya's eyes flick up from his letter to see a warm, kind expression radiating from Ichigo. His heart beats fast with anticipation as Ichigo's soft lips touch his cheek.
"What was that for?" Byakuya asks dropping the letter and the belt from his teeth at the same time.
"For being you, that's all" Ichigo replies his voice is low and heavy with desire.
"Are you seducing me, Ichigo?" Byakuya stifles a chuckle as he lifts his eyebrow up teasing Ichigo.
"Not at all!" Ichigo turns away blushing blood red, he ties his belt back around his waist and leaves to get dressed. "Do you have any free time after lunch?" His voice calls from the next room.
"I do." Byakuya walks into Ichigo's room fully dressed with his scarf floating in the air. He puts his arms around Ichigo then presses his lips to the soft skin of his neck. "Will you be seducing me after lunch, Nobara-tan?"
"Don't call me that! I wanted your help with learning kido."
"I thought you were learning from Abarai." Byakuya pulls away, opening Ichigo's door to wait for the house servant to walk around the corner.
"I-uh, can't ask him to help anymore." Ichigo clamps his eyes shut, trying not to look at Byakuya and blurt out something that might upset him.
"Because of my past involvement with him?" Byakuya's right hand clinches, he looks at Ichigo from half closed lids. "Stay calm. Just explain..."
"All I know is that things are over..." Ichigo walks over next to Byakuya struggling to listen to his reply. "You don't have to talk about, it you don't want to."
"Thank you, Ichigo." Byakuya senses the servant and grabs Ichigo's lips in a long passionate kiss. "Opps, someone saw, looks like the rumors will begin soon."
"You are a coward, Byakuya Kuchiki."
"Shut up Senbonzakura, I know... You are right."
~Part 2~
Byakuya looks at the clock in his office for the hundredth time today. The clicking away of the second hand is torturing the poor captain. Deeply regretting leaving Ichigo earlier in the day without explaining his involvement with Abarai. It left a bad taste in his mouth all morning. Soon as the chime rings out, he dashes out the door heading toward the chaotic reiatsu that can only be Ichigo's. Stepping toward the entrance to the arena he hears loud voices.
"Has he even said that he loves you? No, because he never will!" "That's Renji."
"Renji!" "That's Rukia's voice."
"It's alright Rukia." "Ichigo's voice sounds sad." "If he doesn't that's fine with me."
"No it's not!" "Renji..."
"Both of you shut up and listen to me!" Rukia screams at the top of her lungs, punching Ichigo in the gut and Renji in the face.
"Oi! I wasn't yelling!" Ichigo grumbles with his voice raised.
"Do you know what today is?" Rukia asks looking at them both with her hands on her hips.
"No?" They both mumble holding their injuries looking pissed.
"Every year on this day... Nii-sama and I visit Hisana-sama's shrine. We go first thing in the morning and he always takes the day off."
"I... forgot?" Byakuya's eyes grow wide as he recalls the date. "I wasn't thinking about her... I was thinking about him."
"He didn't go with me this morning." Rukia watches Renji digest the fact that Byakuya has finally moved on. "That's right, Renji. Nii-sama deserves some happiness, so leave them alone." She grabs Renji's collar and gets close to his face. "If you don't I'll rip those tattoo's off your face, and use Sode no Shirayuki to carve some new ones!"
"Alright!" Renji stomps out of the arena bumping into Byakuya's chest. "C-captain!"
"Renji..."
"So much for you not being gay, huh." Renji mumbles walking away frustrated as tears sting his eyes.
"Abarai... I didn't lie to you."
"Then why?" He stops but doesn't turn around. "I don't understand."
"I didn't at first either. I considered ending this complicated distraction before it even started."
"What stopped you."
"Ichigo is only a distraction when he is away from me."
"You do care about him... Don't you."
"It occurred to me that it didn't matter if he was male or female. I couldn't not want him."
"That I can understand."
"If you do understand, then leave Ichigo alone." Byakuya lowers his voice menacingly. "Don't force me to unleash Rukia on you."
Byakuya walks inside the arena finding Ichigo alone trying to fire a Byakurai. His incantation is perfect but, the reiatsu around him isn't flowing into his hands properly.
"Hey."
"Renji won't be bothering you anymore."
"You want to tell me about it?"
"It was a mistake. I realized it soon after and ended it." Byakuya tugs on Ichigo's sleeve yanking his orange-haired head close to his. "Nobara-tan, is not a mistake." He crushes his lips over Ichigo's hungry for his salty taste. His confusion over the past few days suddenly drifts away on the winds when he feels Ichigo's arm's wrap around him. Byakuya feels Ichigo's fingernails digging through the fabric to his back.
"Ah."
"You like like that, Byakuya?" Ichigo drags his nails down the dark-haired nobles back to illicit more sounds from him.
"Hmm."
"Did Renji touch you here?" Ichigo grabs Byakuya's bottom and squeezes him against his growing erection.
"Yes, are you jealous?"
"Terribly."
"Then you should touch everything Renji did." Byakuya's teeth nip at Ichigo's neck.
"I think I will." Ichigo whispers slipping his hands inside Byakuya's haori to caress his finely sculpted chest.
"I'm glad you said that." Byakuya grabs Ichigo and flash steps to his manor, shoving Ichigo inside his bedroom and laying down on his bed.
"You seem excited." Ichigo sits down on the bed to take his shoes off. Byakuya reaches around Ichigo's chest pulling his mouth close to Ichigo's ear.
"There's something you should know..." Byakuya's touch darts out flicking a tiny wet circle on Ichigo's neck. "with Abarai I was the bottom."
Ichigo's eyes grow wide as his clothes start being removed by Byakuya.
Be kidding... be kidding... he doesn't look like he is kidding!!!"
~Yaoi Forever!~
Author's notes; Hey all! Here is the next chapter. It didn't have a lot of kissing I'm sorry. Why did I cut it? Because the chapter was getting too long, and I didn't want to cut out the juicy bits for you! So is the role reversal too much? Drop me a review to let me know^^. I do love to scare Ichi LOLZ. FYI. Strawberries are roses. I want to thank everyone who wished me a happy birthday by reviewing.=) Please check back in two days for the rest of the chapter^^ FYI yes, my Yaoi roomate says sometimes switching is fun.
