p class="MsoNormal"Pantera shook his head and moved to gather his hakama from the floor, "Go ahead."/p
p class="MsoNormal"The redhead covered her eyes again, feeling embarrassed. Her breathing was slowly returning to normal and her back was starting to ache./p
p class="MsoNormal" /p
p class="MsoNormal"Kazeshi had been taking care of her after scenes for the 2 years she'd been coming to the club. He opened the door slowly and closed it behind himself after stepping in. With a nod to Pantera, who looked up when the door opened, he moved to kneel beside Renji with a wash rag in one hand and a bathrobe over his shoulder./p
p class="MsoNormal""How are you feeling?"/p
p class="MsoNormal"His words were calm as always, that was reassuring at least. She moved her arms to rest at her sides and turned to look up at him, "Dizzy," she laughed, "but I feel pretty good." She closed her eyes as Kazeshi wiped the rag across her forehead and cheeks./p
p class="MsoNormal"After a moment, Kazeshi helped her sit up and she glanced up to see Grimmjow, dressed, by the door. Pulling it open, he turned to look at her with a grin, "See you at work," and walked into the hall laughing./p
p class="MsoNormal"Renji's cheeks burned and she bit her lip. Hisagi didn't say a word as he gently dabbed and wiped at her back. After a few minutes, she found her voice again, "Can we get me off the floor?"/p
p class="MsoNormal"The dark haired male smiled, "Yes, of course. Sorry," and carefully picked her up. He walked slowly to the bench and set her down before helping her to lay on her stomach. When she muttered her thanks, he continued to work on wiping her back./p
p class="MsoNormal"After a while Kazeshi helped Maru to her feet, wrapped her in the bathrobe and walked her from the Play Room to the showers. He helped her clean off fully and bandaged her back a bit before walking her to her locker, where he kissed her forehead and told her goodnight./p
p class="MsoNormal"She leaned against her locker as Kazeshi walked away, sighing. Her mind was still in a whirl over what had just happened. Slowly, she let herself sink to the floor and rested her head back. Inhaling deeply, the redhead closed her eyes and allowed herself to think back over the scene./p
p class="MsoNormal"After a few minutes of silent reflection, she stood and opened her locker to redress. Her lips twitched into a smile as she thanked Retsu's advice to always keep spare clean panties in the locker drawer./p
p class="MsoNormal"Once dressed, Renji took a deep breath and headed for Retsu and Zaraki's office. She knocked lightly and opened the door a crack, "Momma?"/p
p class="MsoNormal""Not quite," Zaraki's laughter brought a smile to the redhead's face as she opened the door fully and stepped inside to hug him. Taking note of the redness of her cheek, the large man settled for lightly patting the girl's head. "Looks like you had an interesting go, be sure to put ice on that when you get home." He ruffled her hair when she looked away blushing./p
p class="MsoNormal""Yeah, will do. As usual I was poking in to let Momma know I'm headed back for the night. And to let her know I'm alright, she seemed a little worried." She played with the stress-ball on the desk as Zaraki moved to sit in his chair./p
p class="MsoNormal""She's dealing with an appointment, just call her in the morning. She'll understand." He laughed and leaned back, "You have work tomorrow?"/p
p class="MsoNormal"She nodded, "Yeah... and unfortunately I can't call off since Bya-Sama has already demanded I be there. He's been on my case all week about it." She sighed and scratched the back of her head, "Ah well, such is life, right Pappa?" She smiled and pulled the bookbag she used as a purse out from under Retsu's desk./p
p class="MsoNormal"He nodded and turned to the computer screen, "That it is. And I need to get ready, as I've an appointment myself, here soon." He stood and stretched, "Go get something to eat and get some sleep." He pat her head again as he reached the door./p
p class="MsoNormal" /p
p class="MsoNormal"The drive home wasn't terribly uncomfortable, but her back was a bit sore. Renji made sure to fix a small dinner for herself and take something for the pain. When it came time to get some sleep, she stepped into her bathroom and stood before her full length mirror. She undressed slowly and blushed when she saw the extent of the marks on her neck, back and sides. As she turned, she noticed the 6 on her lower back./p
p class="MsoNormal"'MY TOY.'/p
p class="MsoNormal"His words echoed in her head again and she bit her lip. Sleep was going to be interesting.../p
p class="MsoNormal"She pulled her nightgown on and returned to her room, shutting both lights off on her way. As she crawled under her blanket, laying on her stomach, she smiled and muttered under her breath as she fell asleep./p
p class="MsoNormal""I'm your toy..."/p
p class="MsoNormal"The redhead covered her eyes again, feeling embarrassed. Her breathing was slowly returning to normal and her back was starting to ache./p
