Spring - Pillowfight

Hisana was observing him, as she sat on the floor, dressed in her pajamas and ready for bed. He was taking off his Kenseikan. She never quite understood the Kenseikan; oh, she did know how to put it in… but taking it off had always been a mystery to her.

"Hisana."

Hisana looked up after hearing the deep voice of her husband. "Yes?"

Byakuya turned around and made his way to the bed. He stopped in his tracks and then observed it. "Is it me or is there a pillow missing from the bottom end?"

Hisana raised an eyebrow and she followed his gaze towards the bed. Indeed, there was a pillow missing. But then she saw it, laying on the floor, at the foot of her side of the bed.

"Oh," she said. "There it is. I'll get it."

She got up and took the pillow.

"Catch," she warned.

She threw the pillow.

He didn't see it coming.

Thus the pillow hit him straight in the face.

As the pillow fell down, Byakuya wore a very surprised expression on his face. Hisana had slapped her hand against her mouth. "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to do that!"

Slowly, Byakuya bend his knees and picked up the pillow from the floor. Then, he watched Hisana apologize, and his eyes started to twinkle with amusement.

"Hisana, do you know what this means?"

Hisana widened her eyes and she bow. "I'm so sorry, Byakuya-sama. I will accept any punish--"

She gasped as she felt the pillow hit her body. She wobbled and then fell down.

"What was-"

"Do not act so foolish," Byakuya said with a smirk drawn on his face. "I do not need your apologies."

"Then what does it mean?"

"War."

Hisana gasped. "Oh, shit."

She took the pillow from the floor, but Byakuya was faster; a second pillow made Hisana tremble and she searched for something solid to lean on, but the only thing she could get a grip on was Byakuya. And she wouldn't give him that satisfaction.

While falling down, Hisana threw the pillow on the floor. She landed in it and cushioned the blow by this. As quick as she could, she rolled over and dodged a third pillow. She came to her feet and used the pillow as a shield as she tried to run to Byakuya.

Tried, indeed.

"Oh!" Hisana cried as two hands lifted her from the floor. Her back was pulled against Byakuya's chest and one hand covered her mouth.

"What were you going to do with that?" Byakuya asked smirking.

"You know, this happened to me a lot in Inuzuri." Hisana smirked back.

Byakuya raised an eyebrow. "You got caught in pillow fights a lot?"

"No," Hisana replied, her voice a little too innocent to be true, "I got lifted by guys a lot."

Byakuya widened his eyes. "Hisana…"

"You know what I did to them?"

Byakuya shook his head.

Hisana gently bit his hand, making Byakuya pull away. Hisana took this advantage and hit Byakuya with the pillow. "Only then we used either stones or twigs and we bit harder," Hisana concluded.

Byakuya groaned. "I should have known this was coming…"

Hisana smirked. "Yeah, you should have. And this one, too."

She made another blow with her pillow, but half an inch before she would hit Byakuya, he was gone. Hisana stood there, stunned, as she searched for her opponent. Quickly, she looked behind her.

"I do not attack people from behind. That is cowardly behavior."

Hisana jumped away by hearing his voice next to her. "You're good," she panted.

"You've got fine reflexes," Byakuya complimented Hisana.

She grinned. "Inuzuri," was her explanation.

"But I didn't say it was good enough."

And once again, Hisana was caught. This time between two pillows, which Byakuya had thrown using shunpo. Hisana didn't even have time to realize that she was hit again, as her eyes searched for her husband.

"You're too fast! Stop using shunpo!"

"Everything is allowed in love and war," she heard him say.

Too bad she took it a little too literal. She ran over to him and pushed him onto the bed. She crawled on top of him and she let her fingers trail over his chest as she bend over and placed butterfly kisses on his neck. In the most sultry voice she could master, she purred into his ear, "really, milord?"

Enjoying this turn in events, Byakuya closed his eyes. He now only heard her gentle voice, he could smell her familiar scent, he felt her weight on his stomach, her hands on his chest, her kisses on his skin…

…and the pillow hitting him hard on his face.

"Ha! I bet you didn't see THAT coming!" Hisana screeched as she jumped off the bed and ran to the other side of the room. "What kind of lieutenant are you? You're in the middle of a fight and then your testosterone kicks in! I beat you! Me! I'm from the street and I beat a lieutenant! I bet that drilled a hole into your ego, didn't it? You better not thi~"

Thud.

"And there's the foe who's easily distracted because her estrogen made her believe she had actually won, grounded by the man who was only mere seconds ago accused of having too much testosterone," hummed the voice of the very very heavy man sitting on her back, holding her wrists in just one hand, while the other caressed her cheek. But Hisana thought that the humiliation wasn't the worst that happened yet; she almost choked because of his weight.

"Byakuya-sama?" she huffed, trying to struggle out of his grip.

"Yes?"

"When did you gain so much weight?"

Fortunately for her, he understood her hint. He pushed himself up, but also made sure she wouldn't strike back. Again.

"Now, where were we before you pushed that pillow so merciless into my face?" he asked, still holding her wrists, and now using his other arm to lift her up. He carried her to their bed and gently lay her down.

Byakuya couldn't help but grin by seeing the blush that grew on Hisana's face. He bend down and started sipping on her earlobes.

It felt so good! Her blood started racing through her body and the feeling of his warm lips on her neck made her moan. This only encouraged him to kiss more of her. Her jaw, her chin, her neck, her collarbone, back up to her neck, over to her lips…

…over to her lips…

…her lips…

…why didn't he kiss her?

Heavily confused, Hisana opened her eyes. This was Byakuya's cue to take his revenge and push the pillow in her face.

Coughing, Hisana grabbed Byakuya's wrists and pushed him off. She rolled over to her stomach and kept cough. Her inhaling didn't sound any good and Byakuya started to worry. He crawled over to her and pulled her up straight. "Are you okay?"

But Hisana put on her angry-face and shook her head wildly. "Fea--ther--," was all she could say. After one more cough, Hisana reached into her mouth and pulled the white feather out. "That was gross…"

She had expected Byakuya to wrap his arms around her and tell her he was happy she didn't choke. Instead, she saw him covering his mouth with his hand. It didn't work. Everything about him told Hisana that he was laughing.

"Oh, you…" Hisana started. She was, however, no match to him when she threw herself onto him. He caught her and pinned her down to the bed.

"Pathetic," he declared. Hisana nodded. "It was. Now kiss me, I'm still waiting for it."

Byakuya obliged. He leaned in and pressed his lips on hers.

"Tell me if you find any more feathers in there," Hisana managed to murmur.

"I will," came his reply.

They forgot all about the pillows as they were fading into each others touch. Hisana caressed over Byakuya's arms as she allowed him to devour her. She would get her revenge in the morning.

After all…

…everything was allowed in love and war.
