*I don't own Bleach*

Rukia

A while has passed...

And here I am, in this boring room, waiting for the maids to confirm that I can make my grand entrance, it's been a week since Byakuya saved me and we are about to announce our wedding. I gulped as they gave me the signal, I looked into the mirror, my hair in a bun and the bang in my face collected with the rest of my hair revealing my pale face, my red lips and the lavender eyeshadow that streaked my lids,

The dress I wore was strapless with a heart shaped collar, and it hugged my body nicely, and it was a periwinkle. I looked at the aged maid, her eyes looked at me in happiness. "Do i look like Hisana?" I murmured and she sighed, "No deary, much prettier." She said with a smile and I smiled back before she ushered me outside to join the rich decor. The ballroom was illuminated in golden light.

The curtains were a nice ivory and the floor was a gorgeous granite, the tables were lined with elegant gold and luxurious foods adorned it as the people talked and danced the elegant music. Immediately I made my way towards the balcony I spotted, the music seemed to fade, as the breeze blew on my face. "Rukia." I turned around and was quickly pinned to the railing. Violet clashed with grey as they made contact.

"B-Byakuya..." But his eyes studied me, "Rukia...you look beautiful." He said, and I blushed. "Byakuya...y-you look nice too!" I said with my face flushing different shades of red. He let me go as he took my hand, "Come, we are about to announce the engagement." He said and I nodded letting him let me back in.

He disappeared after a while and I saw him reappear with the elders, this quickly got attention of the public as their eyes silently watched them. "We are having this ball for the engagement of Byakuya Kuchiki-" To my surprise I heard cries of disappointment. "-And Rukia Kuchiki." Immediately everyone parted revealing me in the center of it all.

I blushed as I felt everyone's gaze turned to me, some frowned while others only looked away. I began walking towards Byakuya.

"-Why would he pick her?"

"-So plain and I heard she came from the ghetto part of the city-"

"-This is sickening, she is his step-sister!-"

"-watch her leave him like Hisana...-"

My hands curled up into fists the anger boiling inside me but I stayed silent, my eyes watching Byakuya and only Byakuya...

Byakuya

The wind blew the cherry blossoms as Rukia's head rested on my lap, while we sat under the Sakura tree in the manor. Rukia's hair was pulled out of its bun and the dress was now replaced with a kimono.

Her face was tranquil, her breaths slow and calm and her eyelashes flat on her cheeks. Brushing my fingers lightly on her face, cupping her cheeks and tracing her lips Byakuya moved the stubborn bang from her face, but being stubborn, it regained its place.

Her eyes opened and her beautiful violet hues shined like stars, "Why are you always picking on my hair Byakuya?" She said in a somewhat teasing tone. He frowned as his hands cupped her cheeks, she blushed before averting her eyes, "I-I don't know why you always have to stare at me like that-" But his fingers found her lips and she was silenced at the sudden action. Her gaze returned to his before he cradled her gentle head with his hand and brought her to him.

"Rukia..." He murmured, her name made her blush, especially when it came from him as he plundered himself into her, his hands grasping her hair and wrapping themselves around her hips while her hands found his back and clenched his robe.

They were in their haven, kissing, loving, being in each other's arm, even if it was all he could do...

They enjoyed it.

Upon awaking, Rukia found herself in her brother's arms, only this time he purred her name into her ear. Today they were going to see someone Byakuya really hated, but being Rukia she somehow convinced him to see Ichigo and Renji.

Rukia on the other hand was filled with joy, she would always talk about memories, of the two morons, fights which made Byakuya infuriated, but when Byakuya saw the happiness of her memories, he put that aside and only listened cautiously. But upon hearing her fights and injuries Byakuya grew infuriated. But Rukia smiled in the end, saying it made her who she was, and Byakuya said nothing, with that Rukia; believe it or not was satisfied.

But as they were in the limo he caught her off aura. Her face was contorted in some mixture of confusion and guilt. "Rukia what is the matter?" He asked an her gaze flashed towards him, before sighing. "I-I just wonder if they will forgive me for you know, the day I told them not to hurt you..." She said and he cradled her in his arms, gently kissing her forehead. "I will take care of them," I said back and she sniffled.

Before she smiled and kissed my lips chastly. Rukia turned her gaze to the window, her eyes wide in horror. "Stop the limo." She gasped and the limo stopped, I followed her gaze, staring at the blood stained orange and the fierce red that seemed to be everywhere until a face appeared, the red head punching a guy beside him.

Rukia

I quickly raced towards them, flinging the limo door open I charged, a guy with black hair held Ichigo pinned to the wall while Renji was on the floor bleeding. "Kurosaki..Die!" He yelled thrusting the knife forward. My heart skipped a beat, 'Save him...Save him!' My mind didn't acknowledge anything, it was just the burning need to rescue Idhigo as quickly as possible.

"NO!" I shrieked jumping in front of Ichigo, the knife only inches away from my throat, I shut my eyes, waiting to the impact, but only heard the sound of blades sing and a grunt, opening my eyes I realized who it was. Byakuya's Zanpakuto was unsheathed and with one hand, he was holding the blade against the dagger of the attacker.

The attackers face was contorted with anger, sweat beginning to drop from his face, from the effort, on the other hand Byakuya had a calm demeanor. With a firm push the enemy was on the ground clutching his hand, then did I realize...

It was broken...

"You bastard!" he yelled pulling out a gun, I gasped, "Byakuya!" I shrieked but it was blocked out by a bang.

'Byakuya...No...'
