A/N: At several PM's requests, I'll put in a lemon featuring Chiro and Toshiro near the end of the chapter. ALSO since I (intentionally) waited one more day than longer (4 days instead of 3) I made this one extra long and the longest yet - over 1000 words longer than normal, so have fun with the lemon at the end of the chapter.. oh yeah, YOU'VE BEEN WARNED (Why is it a requirement to say that?!).

Chapter 23: Drawing up a Blank - Alliance ARC

In a silent burst of high-speed movement I land on top of a tree in the graveyard, Sado and Liltotto stationed in the treeline to the left, Ichigo and Kaien in the trees to my right. The Shinenju, a purple haired girl with orange-gold eyes, was currently walking into the graveyard while looking at gravestones. I could sense several spiritual signatures closing in on her, though she didn't seem to notice.

''Senna! Wait up!'' A woman's voice called, one that I had heard only on a handful of occasions but was a wrench in our plans in this situation.

Not a moment later Tatsuki of all people ran into the graveyard, swiftly followed by Rukia and Renji. Ikkaku, Yumichika, Matsumoto and Byakuya were not far behind but likely hiding due to the karate girls awareness. The two girls and one man caught up with Senna, who was looking around the area cautiously. A Blank suddenly dove out from behind a headstone to grab her, only for the purple haired girl to backpedal and avoid it, though another Blank appeared moments later.

''What the hell?'' Tatsuki said wide-eyed, only for them to flutter shut when Renji hit the girl in the back of the head and Shunpo'ed away to a tree and placed the teen down gently.

Another, more humanoid figure burst out of nowhere and attempted to strike Senna, only for her to avoid it as she ejected from her Gigai. He had dark skin, full lips and squinted eyes, he wore a green Shihakusho and blue Obi around his waist, green hat and armour on his chest. The pair exchange a few words before they were joined by another two figures both clad similarly, though one was a woman with lavender hair and the other a man with blue hair.

Again more words were exchanged but before anyone could strike, I release a small pulse of Reiatsu that both made my presence known and gave the signal for attack. In an instant a hail of Quincy arrows hailed down from the treeline, striking the larger man and forcing the other two to evade the sudden assault with a few minor wounds.

''Rankle the Seas and Heavens, Nejibana!'' Kaien cried as he emerged from the treeline with Liltotto, swinging his Shikai and sending a surge of precise water and the woman, making her eyes widen before the water sent her crashing into some trees.

'Hopefully we don't damage the graves...'.

Sado appeared in a buzz behind the larger, dark skinned man and threw a punch into his lower back. A crack resounded throughout the clearing as the man cried out in pain, silenced a moment later by Liltotto who fired an arrow into his head. I appear behind the blue-haired man and ram my fist through his chest, directly through his heart.

'Its so much harder with only 10% of my full power...'.

The man shakily turned his head to look at me, wide-eyed as he felt my Reiryoku build up in my hand.

I close my eyes ''Hado #31: Shakkaho''.

Despite only having access to a tenth of my full power and lowering its power dramatically, it still made his chest explode like a grenade and with it, took his life in an instant. Thankfully most of the blood went forwards instead of onto me.

Ichigo appeared in a blur behind the woman, slashing at her side with ease but avoiding a kill blow. He lashed out with his leg and sent her to the ground, blade to her neck. Seeing his hesitance, Liltotto fired another arrow through the woman's head in a clean shot.

It was almost funny. Sado, Kaien and Liltotto all had 80% of their power sealed for the same reasons the Shinigami do but myself and Ichigo had 90% sealed, yet we took down three lieutenant-class fighters in the span of twenty five seconds. I turn my gaze to the two Gotei 13 officers, who were looking at us wide-eyed - though for a reason only they could understand.

''K-K-Kaien-dono?!'' Rukia blurted out with wide eyes, looking at the former lieutenant who was sheathing his Shikai.

''Yo, Kuchiki'' He grinned at the shorter girl, Renji just as speechless.

Four separate blurs indicated the arrival of Ikkaku, Matsumoto, Yumichika and Byakuya. They, with good reason, looked at the former lieutenant with varying looks of shock. Byakuya was the first to snap out of it, turning his gaze on me and Ichigo - or more specifically, our hands and Ichigo's outfit.

''Ichigo Kurosaki...'' He said, drawing the others out lf their stupor ''...Why do wear the same marking as the group who assisted the Bounts?''.

''We didn't help the Bounts per say'' I interject, making the Shinigami, save Byakuya, widen their eyes ''They were our enemy, then we came to an agreement with them and now they are also part of Purple Tear''.

''So you have betrayed the soul society then?'' Byakuya narrowed his eyes.

''Purple Tear is an independent organisation, we have a unity that the Gotei 13 fiercely lacks'' I glare fiercely, though my posture was lax ''We are made from Arrancar, Quincy, Hell-bound and Shinigami. We don't care what your background is, what your powers are, we value camaraderie above all else''.

''If that's true, then why did you attack us?'' He jabbed.

''We did not attack you, we only prevent Rukia Kuchiki from getting into a stance where she could pose a threat to our two younger members. You threatened us by attempting to make me surrender, I reacted by using a non-lethal method to escape'' I return the jab.

His gaze turned to the ex-lieutenant, who was patting a crying Rukia on the head ''And what of him?''.

''I tracked down the hollow that killed him, killed the hollow and retrieved his soul before it could disappear'' I reply simply ''He was the victim of Aizen's machinations, so I gave him a second chance''.

In a quieter voice so Kaien wouldn't hear he said ''And his wife?''.

I simply shook my head.

He then turned his gaze on Senna, who was talking with Liltotto quietly but eagerly ''Why did you intervene in this situation then?''.

''The Shinenju'' I say, nodding towards Senna ''There are a few others who are targeting her, though we will deal with it''.

I turn, reaching out with my hand and touching the air and forcing a temporary gate to appear. The Shinigami, including Rukia, look wide-eyed at the royal-like gate. Without words needed Ichigo and Sado casually walk in, talking about something like the short fight was nothing but a gust of wind. Liltotto and Senna chat happily as Liltotto gently coos Senna into coming, ending with the two going into the light.

''You're leaving?'' Rukia asked to her former mentor, who chuckled.

''Yeah, don't worry you'll see me more often - tell Captain Ukitake I'm doing well'' He joked with a grin, turning his eyes on Renji ''Make sure she does, eh?''.

Renji only nodded, grinning at the lieutenant like an old friend. He waved goodbye to the other present soul reapers, before he too disappeared into the light. I turn my gaze over all the present Shinigami before also walking into the light of the portal, the entrance crumbling after I entered the hall.

''Its so pretty~'' Senna's voice chimed in as she and Liltotto walked down the hall.

Liltotto shrugged ''Yeah, I guess''.


''Senna'' I called, making the purple haired girl turn away from Lilynette and Liltotto.

''Yeah?'' She asked.

''I'll need you to come with me so I can separate your soul from the Shinenju'' I say and upon noticing the slight fear in her eyes I follow up with ''Don't worry, its painless. I'll just knock you out and when you awaken you'll be all good''.

''Sure...'' She said, still fairly uncertain. She waved goodbye to both of the child-like girls before following a step behind me as we walk down the path in silence for a few minutes before she spoke again ''Um... Asami-san?''.

''Yes?'' I question, look over my shoulder slightly.

''Why did you guys save me?'' She blurted out as a blush crept up her cheeks, showing she was embarrassed.

''Well firstly if those guys got their hands on you they would not only kill you but destroy soul society and the world of the living. Secondly you're a potential comrade to help us in future and I can see you've made some friends already'' I chuckle as the heat in her cheeks brightened slightly ''Thirdly because even if you decide not to help us, you're still an innocent bystander who doesn't deserve to be killed over something as trivial as dimension destruction''.

I smirked as her embarrassment turned into a flat look ''Something as trivial as dimension destruction...''.

I chuckle again as we approach a smaller building used for scientific purposes, I push open the glass doors and Senna followed somewhat nervously. The small building was completely empty, specifically because it was only used by a handful of people and those people were not here. I take her down a few halls before we reach a room with a blurry glass door, which opened with a simply tug of the handle. I lead her inside the plain room that held an operating table in the middle of the room, a large complex machine next to it.

I point to the bed with silent orders and move to the desk behind the machine, I open the cabinet above it and pull out a syringe with knockout fluid in it, so to speak. Wordlessly I approach the horizontal Senna and quietly and carefully inject it into her neck, she flinched but held perfectly still. The drug only took seconds to take effect before her eyes began fluttering shut, allowing me to get to work.


''Captain Ukitake!'' A voice cried, making me put down my ink brush with haste at Rukia's cry. The door almost immediately opened revealing an exhausted Rukia, but still held a glimmer in her eyes that made him slightly confused.

''Rukia?'' I question ''Is something wrong?''.

''No, everything's fantastic'' She said with genuine happiness ''Captain... Kaien-dono is alive''.

Out of natural reflex, my eyes widened and my jaw hung low, though one word got out of my mouth ''How?''.

''Asami Urahara managed to save his soul'' She smiled widely ''He wanted me to tell you; I'm doing well''.

''Where is he?'' I ask immediately, instantly her smile faded slightly but still remained.

''He went into this portal with Asami and Ichigo along with some others, she confirmed that they were part of the Purple Tear - the group of people who intervened during my fight with the Bount''.

My smile immediately returned ''Ah, that's good, he'll be treated well there''.

She blinked in surprise ''You knew about them?''.

''Mm, Asami told me about it shortly before her exile'' I smile wistfully ''They're a nice bunch of people, I asked her once what the Purple Tear was - do you know what she said?''.

The Kuchiki girl simply shook her head, so I continued with her reply.

''She said; 'What are we? Our mind-set? We're protectors, Logically? We're an army, In actuality? We're a bunch of people with weapons''.


''Onii-chan!'' A shrill voice cried as the light haired Kurosaki daughter burst out of the training ground, practically tackling me as I entered Jikan Yari again with Chad and Asami in tow. Karin appeared a moment later, though offered me a cocky grin as she hefted her sealed Zanpakuto onto her shoulder.

''Yuzu just got her Shikai not long ago'' Karin informed with a grin ''Who knew dad was half-decent at teaching?''.

I chuckle and return my younger sisters embrace, both were slightly taller than when they first appeared inside Jikan Yari and had longer hair, roughly looking a few months older but still passable as kids. Asami had her soul pager out and was talking quietly into it, frowning slightly and nodding every so often. Her frown deepened and she said some passing words before snapping the phone shut, her frown deepening even more so.

''Something wrong?'' I address, she looked at me with a thoughtful look before shrugging to herself.

''The Advanced team in Karakura has been brought into another fight, the remaining members of that ancient clan have been unable to find Senna and are now targeting the advanced team for answers. Byakuya Kuchiki is currently in soul society giving a report so only lieutenant-class fighters are present and the Shinigami are currently losing'' She replied, flipping her phone open again and tapping a few buttons before brining it to her ear ''Kaien are you back at HQ? Alright I need to hunt down the Bount Kariya... yeah they've reappeared... I'll give you three minutes - five maximum... alright, good luck''.

She snapped her phone shut and turned to us ''They're back again, who's coming?''.

I nod and so does Chad ''We're in''.

''Let us come too!'' Yuzu chirped excitedly ''Please?''.

Asami shot a glance at me, biting her lip as she tried to decide. It only took a few moments but I could almost feel her mind working, whether it was the power transfer or not. I give her a shrug, wordlessly saying it was her call.

'I trust you to make the right call' I mentally say to myself, completely unaware that she had heard that one particular thought. She blushed ever so slightly, though it was clear to everyone but nobody questioned it.

She raised her gaze to Yuzu and smiled sadly ''Not this mission, Yuzu, Karin. I know you must be excited to use your Shikai in combat but right now these opponents are above you, but if you get even stronger then you can come on higher difficulty missions''.

Their faces fell slightly but their determination returned by the end of her sentence, both nodded with determination and Yuzu hugged me tightly before taking off in a blur towards their father. I smile at her and nod in appreciation and she returned the gesture, before putting on her 'leader act' as I call it.

''Inoue is back in the world of the living at my request to attend to Tatsuki, who unknowingly got in the way of the last mission and caught sights of the Blanks. Her purpose is to try and make it out that Tatsuki had a head injury and saw things'' She explained ''Ishida left not long ago with my father to find Ishida's father and try and rope him into this, since that man is as stubborn beyond belief, Sado I'll have one of my allies come by later to try and assist you achieve your second release. Ichigo when we return we should move onto our own training... any questions?''.

Me and Chad shook our heads and she nodded approvingly before spinning on her heel and thrusting her hand into the air beside her, making it ripple before she began to open a portal to the living world.


''I will not repeat myself...'' The armoured man, Ganryu, stated distastefully as he stood over the battered form of Rukia. Renji was off to the side, barely standing and Bankai struggling to stay active. Ikkaku and Yumichika were fighting their own opponents, though Yumichika had lost and his opponent now joined Ganryu. Matsumoto was nowhere in sight, her Reiatsu completely gone ''...where is the Shinenju you call Senna?''.

''Tell us now'' Mau stated viciously.

Rukia grunted, pointing her blade at the leader of the two ''She... isn't here''.

''How unfortunate'' Ganryu said sarcastically and raised his blade ''Goodbye and good riddance, Shinigami''.

His blade fell with intent to strike me down forever, only for it to be blocked halfway by a hand covered in rushing wind. Rukia's eyes widened upon seeing the man not only do such a feat, but the teardrop on his back and the Reiatsu he emitted, identical to a Bount.

''Normally, I would've rejoiced in a soul reapers death but...'' The unnamed Bount smirked to Ganryu ''Your soul smells a lot nicer than hers, and I have my orders''.

In a burst of speed he lashed out, leaving only a slight amount of time for the fallen noble to move back but leaving him with a gash on his torso. Mau moved to fight the Bount but was immediately blocked by Kaien, who wasn't even looking at him but rather smirking down at Rukia.

''I told you that you'd see me soon'' He smirked playfully and he harshly shoved, making his opponent backpedal.

From the top of a tree in the park the fight was currently taking place in, I turn to Asami who gave a shake of her head and the message was clear; not to intervene. She flicked her phone opened and tapped buttons at a rapid rate and I could make out her sending a text message, I think that's what it was at least. She went at it for a minute or two before snapping her phone shut.

''I sent a message to Unohana and requested a healer or two to help'' She said ''Genryusai won't like us interfering too often, so we'll have to play it safe until I can figure some way to convince them to ally with us''.

I merely nod, turning my gaze to the fight ahead.

Ganryu slashed out with his sword in a wide arc, only for the same wind-enshrouded hand to block it and a similar fist to lunge into his stomach. The man grunted as the wind sliced into his stomach and jumped back, intent on escaping but was immediately struck by a storm of wind that sent him tumbling back. Kariya moved in to strike him down only to get a long gash along his torso, making his eyes narrow as he retreated.

''Interesting power'' Ganryu hissed ''What might you be?''.

Kariya smiled pleasantly, likely just to annoy the fallen noble ''Why do you care?''

''Curious'' He replied as he lunged forth, slashing at Kariya who blocked easily.

It was ironic in a way, he was our enemy now our ally fighting against our enemy. A light tap on my shoulder makes me turn around to look at Asami, and I was surprised when the crack-in-the-air was present also, leading to Jikan Yari. Chad was nowhere to be seen, indicating he had left silently - likely into Jikan Yari.

''Asami?'' I question.

She grinned, not-so-hidden excited anticipation in her eyes ''They can finish this fight on their own, we should get to our own training...''.

''You're really excited about it'' I state, getting to my feet and walking on air towards the portal.

She nodded with her grin still in place ''Of course, my father has just finished your Sanrei glove that I designed, so you can understand my excitement at seeing my invention put to use''.

I simply smile at the happy looking Asami, a rare sight as far as I knew. I follow her into the portal for the millionth time, walking through the dark abyss with only the purple wind to follow. This place was always odd, not creepy but just plain odd... like a graveyard almost, a place of unspoken despair and melancholy than was never questioned or erased.

''Its depressin' as hell'' His hollow said flatly and I mentally agree. It only took another few steps before I touched the invisible barrier, with the lightest of shoves the barrier broke, allowing me and Asami to break into the slowed-down world again.

''We'll be training privately for a long time, so spend some time with your sisters'' Asami advised as she turned to the house in the distance ''I'll go make the last minute adjustments to the Sanrei glove, see you''.

''Bye'' I nod and in less than a second she was gone, a blur then in another second at the house.

'Now how to tell my sisters they'll see even less of me...'.

''It will be hard, but if you wish to become stronger then you will need peace and quiet to do so'' The elder Zangetsu commented wisely.

'Yeah, but still... I wonder if they'll have Bankai by the time I get back?'.

''At the rate you achieved it at, its entirely possible''.

Smiling slightly at the prospect, I take off in a blur towards my sisters Reiatsu.


In the middle of the Shiba household, a very happy reunion was taking place.

Ukitake, Rukia, Ganju, Kukaku and Kaien all sat with bottles of sake all around them. Rukia and Ukitake had politely declined getting drunk off their asses, while the not-so-reserved Shiba family did. It was a reunion of Kaien's rebirth, and that the Shiba family will one day rise again, not today mind you but one day... in a while. It had evidently been hard to coax Rukia into coming to the Shiba household, but after the truth had been revealed and Rukia was not to blame, everything became good.

At some point Yoruichi joined in too, just for the sake though.

Kaien informed the two Shinigami he'd join the Gotei 13 in a couple years time, since he felt indebted to Asami and wanted to help out at Purple Tear before returning to the Gotei 13. Ukitake heartily agreed with him and promised to keep the lieutenants position open until then, which Kaien grinned at.

That night, Rukia held Asami a little higher in regard.


After having a short meal with my family and talking to them, I headed out to find Asami. Again tracking her wasn't as difficult since she wasn't concealing it instinctively like when she was in the company of others, but it still wasn't the easiest task. It turns out she was at a similar place as before, sitting on a rock in the morning light looking over a small pond with Koi fish in it.

Like always she detected me long before I landed, her eyes remained shut as she lied back against the flat rock ''Hey''.

''Hey'' I greet as she got up, stretching as she did so.

''You ready for training?'' She questioned idly, rolling her shoulders.

''We've been training since we got back from soul society'' I say flatly and she chuckled.

''But this'll be far more intense'' She smirked at me, throwing a black suitcase at me (where she hid it is a mystery). I catch it and raise a questioning eyebrow to which she responded ''The Sanrei glove, slip it on''.

Giving her a nod I click open the case, holding both sides as it split open revealing a blue and white glove I say Ishida wear during the invasion. Taking it out of the soft filling that prevented damage, I quickly match up which hand its for before slipping it on my right hand, making a click as I did so. I flex my fingers experimentally and surprisingly you could barely tell the difference in terms of sense of touch, I fold the briefcase up and place it on the ground and return my gaze to Asami.

''Let's go'' She said and turned towards the horizon where the mountains lay ''We've got a long way to travel''.

With those parting words, she took off in her usual silent blur and I follow with a whoosh, tailing her closely.


-LEMON WARNING-

Blinking tiredly, my eyes stared at the ceiling for a few seconds before they fall on the pink-haired girl next to me. She blinked up at me wide-awake and snuggled into my chest more, humming a greeting. Ever since their return from soul society they had shared a bed, or rather Chiro kept coming into mine in the middle of the night to avoid suspicion of the others.

Chiro adjusted herself so that her head also lied on the pillow instead of my chest, smiling at me sweetly. I give her a tired good-morning kiss that she happily returned snuggling into me more as if she was trying to bury herself in me. We stayed like that for a while, before Chiro pops an embarrassingly curious question.

''Hey Toshi...'' She said softly ''...wanna take a bath together?''.

I nearly had a heart attack at the sudden and uncalled for offer, but the genuinely curious blushing face of Chiro made me consider it. Honestly it couldn't be too bad, despite how... odd it would be taking a bath with someone else, they were (technically) dating, and thus it shouldn't be something to be embarrassed about. Despite that statement my cheeks felt like I was standing next to Asami's Goka.

''Uh... sure?'' I mumble out and Chiro nodded happily, shuffling out of bed and moving over to the private bathroom connected to my room. Briefly I was aware of what I had just said and what it will transpire but in the end had one, rather crude, response;

''Fuck it'' I grumble to myself as I swing my feet over the edge of the bed, he has an inner hollow; what's to be scared of?

The bathroom door opened, letting a small amount of steam travel into the room as she stood next to the door ''You go in first Toshi~''.

Sighing away as much of my nervousness away I go into the slowly-steaming room. The pristine white walls with a large round bathtub in the centre, filled up with warm steamy water. Looking back at the open door with Chiro discreetly looking away, I move slightly towards the toilet area out of direct line of sight of the door and proceed to quickly and nervously remove my pyjamas. My top half falls off and in a seconds time so does my bottom half, after a seconds hesitation I pull down my underwear and let it fall to the floor, climbing into the circular bath in a moments notice.

Upon hearing the splash of water I heard Chiro's feet patter into the room against the tile floor. More out of reflex than actual intention, my head turned back to look at her. My cheeks lit up like a fire at the sight of her naked form as she pulled down her underwear, dragging it off her ankle and throwing it in a pile. Before she could tell I was looking I turn back around, feeling the need to bury my face in the water. A slight splash indicated Chiro also entering the water, right next to me.

She let out a hum of content and leaned against me slightly, sinking into the water till it stopped under her nose. She rubbed her head against my arm like a cat, looking up at me. The memory of her petite, lithe body popped back into mind and made my blush increase tenfold. Chiro also took that moment to sit up slightly, exposing more of her petite body, mainly her flat chest.

No matter how prudish or gentlemanly I was, I was still a man. And when a man was sat next to someone of the opposite sex, both naked and in the warmth of a bath, it was nearly impossible to deny the natural reaction. My only hope was that Chiro didn't notice, a hope that was to be short lived.

As if she could read my mind Chiro snuggled in more, sitting up and kissing my jaw affectionately. She had a mischievous glint in her one visible eye as she trailed kisses along my jawline, ending up at my lips and kissing more fiercely than I've ever felt from her. She had one hand on my shoulder and one on my bare chest, slowly trailing downwards.

''Chiro...'' I grunt, kissing back at her as she pressed her chest against my arm. Her hand trailed down my stomach and stopped near my pelvis, making me mentally groan to prevent me doing it verbally.

''Do you want me to play with lil' Toshi?'' She asked in an innocent but ever seductive tone as her hand brushed against my erection, and all previous thoughts were forgotten as I let out a low groan. Chiro blushed and in an agonizingly slow pace, wrapped a hand around my shaft and slowly started to pump up and down, a teasing smile on her face as she kissed me again.

''Do you like it?'' She whispered seductively as she began doing the motion faster, combined with the warm water around us it gave off a pleasurable feeling and making me groan again. Chiro shuffled slightly and moved the hand from my shoulder, wrapping it around my arm and holding it to her body, making me blush from her boldness. It took all of a moment to realise where my hand ended up and what she wanted to do, so I smile at her at engage another kiss with her while rubbing her soft entrance with my fingers.

She moaned into the kiss, making my erection twitch in delight. She must've noticed because her pumping got faster, making me groan in turn and slip a finger into her folds, making her breath catch before a shuddery moan of delight escaped her lips. All previous hesitation or shyness was gone in the wind, our only thoughts were to make the other feel better.

Her pumping got faster and faster, picking up speed as time went on and in turn my own fingers went to work, three entered her and going in and out rapidly. I felt my climax coming and judging by her panting, she was too. Abruptly her pumping stopped, in turn making me take pause. She wiggled her fingers out of me and let out a quiet whine of disappointment before she sat above me, almost her entire dripping-wet body up for display, from her flushed face, flat chest, dripping soft folds to her petite legs.

''Can I, Toshi?'' Chiro asked softly, no gestures were needed for what she meant. My response came in the form of standing up as well, grabbing her soft ass and lifting her up, wading through the water to the wall. She moaned as the cool tiles touched her back only for it to be silenced by a kiss, with one last look for confirmation I thrust in.

She winced it clear pain and buried her face in my shoulder, biting down on my shoulder. I wince in turn but simply wait for her to adjust as I felt the blood run down my shaft, her response came in the form of her sensually dragging her tongue over where she bit me and humming a quiet 'Go'. Taking a moment to bite her exposed neck she jumped lightly and looked at me, which gave me the chance to passionately kiss her as I thrust into her.

She moaned at the unfamiliar feeling of my shaft inside her, followed by several more moans as consecutive thrusts pushed inside her. I groan as she thrusts lightly forwards at the same time I did, making her smirk as she continued to do it. Her legs wrapped around my hips as she kissed me again, hips meeting my own thrusts.

Even though we just started, the tightness of her warm walls was slowly overpowering my sense of will. Chiro was moaning every breath, her breath laboured as she also seemed to be having a similar problem, which was that neither of us wanted it to end so soon. Her walls kept tightening at random intervals and her moans were like fuel to a fire. One hand moved to her chest, pinching her nipple and making her moans more drawn-out.

''Toshi...'' She moaned, her walls getting tighter ''I'm... almost...''.

''Me too...'' I grunt as my thrusts become slower but deeper ''Chiro...?''.

She noticed my questioning tone and simply nodded, giving her consent. I give her another chaste kiss as I almost fully pull out before slamming it into her deepest parts, making her let out a loud and higher pitched moan of bliss while I groan as my seed fills her, her own juices leaking down my shaft. We stayed like that for several seconds before Chiro wrapped her arms around my neck, leaned in and kissed me.

''I love you, Toshiro'' She whispered, using my full name.

''I love you too, Chiro'' I smile, kissing her again as we descended back into the warmth of the bath, though this time the awkwardness was entirely gone and replaced by a calming aroma, or maybe that's the smell of sex but regardless it was calming. I wrap an arm around her shoulders and hold her to me, embracing her as we shared one final kiss before falling into a quiet lull of rest.
