Bleach Fanfiction -Chapter 8 (Final)

"So warm.." 

You're not sure what it was pressed to your body but it felt so nice. You buried your face deeper into the warmth, letting out a sigh. Whoever's body it was sticking to your own was the best thing ever to wake up to.

"....Body?" 

The reality of the situation seemed to dawn on you. Your eyes sprung open in a panic.

When you say the familiar blond hair your cheeks colored. 

"T-T-Taicho!!!" 

You didn't remember going to sleep with him. You didn't even remember coming back to the squad barracks. Your eyes studied the room. 

"W-When did I get back?" The last thing you remembered was going with Rangiku. You groaned. 

"Dammnit!!! I knew it was a bad idea." You focused your gaze back forward. Shinji was just laying there.

His hands were wrapped around your body so you couldn't move. You just stared. Watching his soft breaths. The way his short blond hair fell delicately on his face. You marveled at him. How did you not notice how attractive he was before. Had all those years of chasing Kensei made you blind to what was right in front of you. He shifted, pulling you closer and you squeaked when his face was now buried into your neck. You could feel his breath on your skin and your body trembled.

"S-Shinji.."

 You whimpered out. It wasn't fair. Why was he holding you like this when he was sleeping. Didn't he know the effect of being so close had on you. You weren't sure how but your call must have woken you up. You felt him stiffen against your body and altogether he jumped back. His eyes were wide, cheeks flushed. 

"(Y/Y-N)!!" he yelled out embarrassed. He shuffled away, back hitting the wall. 

"I-I y-you were I-I.." you giggled. "It's okay. I think I know what happened. I got pretty drunk last night didn't I?" he scratched his head standing up. 

"Y-Yeah, Kensei brought you back. Cheeky bastard just dumped you and took off."

You looked down at your lap. 

"S-Sorry if I was a handful. I get pretty clingy when I'm drunk." Shinji laughed. "I realized. You grabbed me and wouldn't let me go. I figured I'd just let you sleep." you kicked the air awkwardly. 

"Did I..say anything weird?" you asked hesitantly.

You hoped you didn't say anything to jeopardize your working relationship with Shinji. His eyes turned serious. "Should I tell her? Maybe it's for the best that she doesn't know." He decided against it. You were drunk. The things you said last night were clearly just a reflection of that.

"You kept saying how cute I was." Shinji teased. He was going to have a little fun at least. Even if he couldn't let you know the whole truth. You flushed fiddling with your fingers. He smirked waiting for you to yell at him and tell him you would never say such a thing. His head titled when you didn't deny it.

"I-I do think that.." you muttered. He looked puzzled. "You think what?" you raised your head, looking at him determined.

 "I-I THINK YOU'RE ATTRACTIVE TAICHO!!" Your words came out in a hurried yell. Shinji stood there stunned. "I-I like you Taicho. " your body was shaking. This was it. You couldn't go back. 

"At first I-I thought that I was just pushing my feelings for Kensei unto you but.." you bit your lip. "I-It' different...the way I feel about you." you confessed.

Shinji was just gaping at you like a fish. Was this just another trick his brain was playing on him. 

"A-Are you serious!?!" you cower back, eyes shaking. "I-I'm sorry." you felt like crying. "I'm sorry I said anything I-I was..I'm sorry Taicho!!" you kept your head bent as you tried to rush past him. He grabbed you before you could get away. In a split second you were pressed up against the wall. You stared up at him in surprise. His hands had you pinned. "You can't just say something like that and then run off." he growled. His eyes were staring you down. You could see the desire...the love...

"Do you know how long I've wanted you."

"Y-You wanted..me?"you repeated in disbelief.  Shinji sighed. "I've always loved you (Y/N)." Your eyes widened. "T-That's impossible! Y-You never said anything. Why didn't you te-"

"Because you cared about Kensei. " he looked to the side. 

"You were always looking at him, smiling at him. That's why I encouraged you to confess. I just wanted you to be happy. Even if it meant I couldn't have you." All this time he was in love with you. You couldn't imagine how hard it must have been for him. Watching you chase after someone else. And he never once complained. Because he..loved you.

His gaze fell back on you. "Last night...you said you loved me. I told myself not to believe it because you were drunk. Was it true?" Your eyes felt teary. 

"I-I..I do care about you Shinji. S-So much!! I want to get to know you better, I feel like I've been such a horrible friend up until now. I-I wasn't able to be for you back then but I want to be here for you now!!" A smile spread on his lips. He pressed his forehead against your own exhaling. "You don't know how long I've wanted to hear that." you grinned. 

"Sorry it took so long. " you joked.

He chuckled. 

"I'd wait another hundred years if it meant I could be with you." your cheeks flushed. How had you been so blind to his feelings? "Shinji?" he hummed.

"Can I..kiss you?" Your words were filled with uncertainty. Shinji couldn't help but find it flattering. You were so innocent sometimes. 

"You never have to ask (Y/N)." He still had you pressed to the wall. You leaned forward, standing on your toes. You could see his eyes studying your every move. You licked your lips nervously, shutting your eyes tightly, pressing a soft kiss to his lips. 

He closed his eyes slowly, returning it. You made a soft appreciative sound that made his stomach flip pleasantly. His hands slipped down from the wall, circling around your body as he pulled you closer, deepening the kiss. You moaned when his tongue slipped past your lips. You felt his tongue brushed against your own and you trembled at the feeling. When the need for air became too much you pulled panting.

Shinji flicked his tongue teasingly and you blushed.

"How cute, I didn't peg you for the shy one (Y/N)-chan~" You looked down at your hands that had somehow ended up gripping into his robes. Your mind traced back to that time in Karakura when he wore casual clothing. 

"He looks good in everything. I wonder what he looks like..under all the clothing.." you zoned out as images popped into your head.

"(Y/N)?" you blinked looking up at him. When he stared down your face exploded in red.

"UWAH!!" you jumped back covering your face in embarrassment. "What the hell was I just thinking!?!" Shinji looked confused. "What's with you? You just spaced out. Were you having indecent thoughts?" he laughed, but when he saw your face get redder he froze. 

"Y-You we're!!"

You shook your head. "I wasn't!!" you shouted running off.

"H-Hey come back what were you thinking!!"

"SHUT UP!!" you screamed.

Your relationship would be an interesting one, that was for sure.

Bleach Fanfiction - Chapter 2

"You're in a good mood." you looked over at Shinji. He walked into your room with a grin. "Did you finally own up?" he teased. "M-Mind your business!" you fired. He laughed. 

"So that's a no." you huffed, folding your arms. 

"I'll t-tell him today.." You mumbled. 

"Oh! Finally some progress." you let out a dry chuckle. As much as you wanted to believe Kensei probably felt the same way, an unsettling feeling was present in your stomach. If he did reject you, you weren't sure what you would do. Shinji noticed the sudden doubt in your eyes. 

"Quit being a punk, you'll be fine." He raised a hand, patting you on the head. You looked up and he smiled at you. 

"Just tell him how you feel." you smiled despite your fears.

"T-Thanks taicho." Shinji's grin turned wider. "So now you have respect." He joked. You giggled.

"W-Well I'm off!!" you spun on your heels, running out the door. 

"Don't eat all of my candy!!" you yelled at him. "No promises!!" came his reply.

~~

"I just need to say it. M-Muguruma-taicho, I-I like you!" 

You kept rehearsing the words in your head. This was it. You weren't going to back down. You were walking down the hall to his office. When you finally got to his door you were shaking. You raised your hand to knock.

"Ken-"

"I love you Mashiro." Your body froze at the words you heard from the other side of the door.

"Uwah! I didn't hear you, say it louder Kensei~~" you heard Mashiro say. The male coughed, you could hear the embarrassment in his words. 

"I-I love you!!" he grumbled it out this time. All you heard was a small cheer from Mashiro. A drop hit the floor at your feet as you just stood there. You couldn't tell what was happening on the other side of the door after that. When you heard Kensei groan you turned your back, running off.

~~~

"Finally got all her candy. Damn she's getting really good at hiding it." 

Shinji had rummaged through your cabinets in search of the snacks you often kept in your quarters. You were probably going to lecture him tomorrow, but he didn't care. 

He visibly jumped when he heard something crash into the side of your room. Shinji moved away from the kitchen, going towards your door. He looked over when he saw you picking yourself off the ground.

"Hey! You scared the crap out of me!" 

You didn't respond. Shnji's eyes focused when he realized something wasn't right. When you finally lifted your eyes he was shocked to see the broken expression on your face. You were shaking, and tears were pouring out of your eyes. 

He dropped the contents in his hand rushing over to you. You stumbled again and he caught you before you could fall. You sank to your knees, taking Shinji with you as you clenched unto him. Your body shook as you cried, burying your face into his robes. 

"What happened.." he questioned trying to soothe you. "H-He...he loves Mashiro...I-I was stupid to think..." you continued to sob, gripping his robes tighter. Shinji's hand held you securely. He didn't say much, just kept you close. 

What could he say?

"I should have never encouraged her.." he felt guilty. If what you said was true then no matter what you would get your heart broken, yet somehow he felt like it was his fault.

"I'm sorry (Y/N)." You didn't respond, just stayed there. Holding unto him.

Bleach Fanfiction - Chapter 7

"Come on (Y/N)-chan let's go out to get drinks!!" you shook your head firmly. "No way! Last time Taicho had to pick me up from the bar. He still has those pictures of me drooling." You weren't a heavy drinker, Rangiku knew that yet she still insisted on inviting you whenever she went to a bar. You only agreed once and after two cups of sake you were wasted. You couldn't hold your liquor.

"Aww come on don't be like that. Trust me I'll look out for you this time." you just gave her a blank stare. She chuckled nervously. "Anyway I'll see you tonight!" You reached out a hand to tell her off but she just took off in a sprint. Your hand lowered as you scoffed. "Like hell, I'm not going." you turned with a huff. "Gonna need to find somewhere to hide tonight." You walked off trying to think of somewhere she wouldn't think to look. "Maybe at Kenpachi's."

~~

"Damn where did all this paperwork come from. " you looked over at Shinji's desk. He had three piles of paper on his desk. He stretched just coming out from the other room. You moved over to the desk taking a seat. "

I've got it." you said waving him off. His head tilted. "You sure?" you smiled. "Yeah, don't worry." you picked up the pen, picking up one of the documents as read through it, signing off where needed. You kept at it for a while and Shinji sat on the couch watching you work from across the room. Your brows would furrow in the most adorable way when you seemed unsure of something, then the crease in your forehead would even out when you figured it out. You looked so professional.

"You look good behind a desk." you raised your eyes, grinning at him. "I do don't I?" you boasted lifting your chin. He could see the stars basically sparkling around you. "You'd look much better bent over it though.." he never voiced that particular thought. He had so much pent up tension. Everytime he tried to make a move on you someone would get in the way and ruin it. 

Literally every time. Last week he had gotten another perfect opportunity. You were in your room cleaning and you accidently slipped on a stray piece of trash, falling right into his lap. He thanked Kami when you looked up at him to apologize. He was sure then he would get the chance. It was just the two of you. He was going to take the chance. 

Right when he leaned forward Rangiku popped up out of nowhere begging for a place to hide from her captain. Of course that didn't work cause he came in literally seconds later yelling at her. They got in a heated argument which ended in Toshiro icing your entire room. Safe to say he wasn't going to make any moves that day.

Another long sigh left Shinji's lips. The odds just never seemed to be in his favor. Was this a sign that he should just give up pursuing you. He knew how hung up you'd been about Kensei, but you seemed like you got over it. You looked much brighter than before. He just wanted you to know how he felt. How long he had felt this way. Maybe this was wrong? You were still pretty vulnerable. 

"Maybe I should just wait." Were you even ready for a relationship. The last time you cared about someone you got your heart broken. It was doubtful you would say anything even if you returned his feelings. Deep down you probably were still afraid of being rejected again.

"Then I guess I'll have to be the one to say it." Shinji stood. "(Y/N)." he called. You shifted your gaze in his direction. "Yes Taicho." he felt like an arrow struck him in the heart when you looked at him with those curious eyes. A vessel burst in his nostril as blood started pouring out his nose. "Shit I can't do it!" he said holding his nose. You were too much for him. You panicked when you saw the blood.

"T-Taicho are you alright!!"

~~

"You really scared me." you said. Shinji sat on the couch with two pieces of paper stuck up his nose. He looked at you with a glare. "T-This is your fault!!" he accused.

"B-But I didn't do anything!!" you defended. He just continued to grumble under his breath.

You just seethed. "B-Baka!!!" you yelled.

~~

"Another shot Rangiku!!" you demanded. She grinned pouring you another cup. You gulped it down in anger. "B-Baka Taicho acting so weird!" You hiccupped, putting down your glass. After what happened you agreed to Rangiku's proposal. Isane, Rangiku, Izuru and Hisagi sat with you drinking happily. "What wrong with Hirako-taicho? You seemed pretty down."  Rangiku questioned. Your cheeks were pretty flushed from the drinks. When she mentioned Shinji you sulked.

I-I don't know he's a meanie.." you murmured. "I HATE HIM!!" you grabbed the bottling downing the contents. Isane started waving frantically. "S-Stop (Y/N)-san that's not safe!" you dropped it when the bottle was empty. This time when you looked up your entire face was red. Hisagi laughed, patting you on the back. "Good going (Y/N)!!" he cheered. You giggled stupidly. "Sa..ke!!" you slurred. Isane sighed. She could already see where this was going.

"I think we should get you back." Isane said. "Back!!" you cheered again. She sweatdropped. You were already far gone. Kensei walked in scanning the bar. When he saw Hisagi he moved over. "Taicho join us!!" When his eyes landed on you he raised a brow. "Taicho!!" You said enthusiastically. Kensei could tell from the redness in your face that you were plastered.

"I think it's best I get you to your room. I'm scared to think what destruction you would cause like this. " Izuru chuckled. "Be careful, She drank the entire bottle." Kensei's eyes widened. "What! She knows she's a lightweight. " Kensei reached over, throwing you over his shoulder. "Ta-ic-cho~" you sang, rocking your head from side to side. Rangiku laughed.

"She looks happy. " Kensei just walked away with a sigh. "She's going to regret this tomorrow. " he stated.

~~

"Where the hell is she? " Shinji came by to apologize for yelling at you earlier, but he couldn't find you in your room. He turned when he heard your voice outside. "Kensei piggyback!!"

"H-Hey what are you doing!!" Shinji walked out to the sight of you on Kensei's back.

Kensei stood at the door, struggling to get a grip on you. "Stop moving you little punk." Shinji noticed your red face immediately. "She got drunk again." Kensei nodded. "Yeah, this time she down a whole bottle apparently. " Your head turned and Shinji felt a bit unsettled at the cute expression you wore when you spotted him. 

"Taicho!!!" you jumped off of Kensei's back, into Shinji's arms. He stumbled as you clung unto him. "B-be careful!!" He looked at Kensei for help but he gave a salute. "She's your problem now see ya!" he disappeared on the spot. Shinji cursed. "That bastard.." His eyes turned back on you. You were still hanging on to him, humming a song in your head. You looked so childish.

"Right now I'm shameless!!" you sang happily. Shinji couldn't help but chuckle at your behavior. He never saw you so carefree. "Alright Ms. Shameless, let's get you to bed." You shook your head. 

"No! I want to stay up~" objected. You reached up looking directly at Shinji. He could smell the alcohol on his breath. He swallowed a bit nervously when you leaned forward. Your eyes stared at him in awe. "You have a piercing just like Taicho!" you spotted pointing at his mouth. Shinji sighed. "I am your Taicho." he stated.

"Nope. Taicho is waaaaay cuter!" you emphasized your comment spreading your arms and Shinji raised a brow. "She thinks I'm cute.." He shook off the comment. "You're just drunk." He moved a hand to slide open the door to your room. He held you, trying to lower you to your feet. When you were standing you looked over at him. "Can I tell you a secret?" you whispered, pulling him by the shoulder. "You have to promise not to tell Taicho." you said softly.

"I already told you I'm t-"

"I really love Taicho!!" you chirped. Shinji sputtered. "W-Wha.."

You giggled holding your cheeks. "It's so embarrassing." you continued to giggle swaying from side to side. For a minute he thought maybe he was dreaming. You didn't just say what he thought you did, did you? "(Y/N) listen to me you're not yourself when you wake up tomorrow you'll be mo- You wrapped your arms around his neck before he could finish.

"Taicho is the best! He's nice and funny and he's always there for me. I wanna marry Taicho~" Shinji blushed. "Too bad you don't have my Taicho." you pulled back with a sympathetic look.

"I'm glad I have him all to myself. " you gushed. Shinji's eyes marked you. "Time for bed." he said softly. He was overjoyed at your words. But he couldn't help but feel you were just saying these things because you were intoxicated. "Okay." you yawned. He turned to leave, but you grabbed his hand, pulling him unto the futon. He released a yell at the sudden pull. Falling unto the soft material with a thud.

When he reopened his eyes your hands were securely wrapped around his torso. Shinji was overly aware of how amazing your body felt pressed to him. He pulled in an unsteady breath. "You're so comfy..just like Taicho.." you hummed against his chest. The vibrations traveled through his body and he groaned at the back of his throat. 

"This is torture."

After a few moments all he could here was your soft breaths. His eyes shifted, watching the blissful look on your face. He tried to slip out when he was sure you were asleep. Shinji moved slightly and winced when you held onto him tighter. Your eyebrows knitted and then relaxed. "

Shinji.." you purred out softly. Shinji's heart warmed at the way you said his name. He pulled you in closer and he was satisfied with the smile that adorned your lips.

"I guess it can't be helped." he got comfortable, breaths falling in rhythm with your own. You being drunk wasn't as bad as he thought it would be.

Bleach Fanfiction- Chapter 6

"What did I tell you about eating my candy!!" you fired. You were at it again. Shinji always came by your room just to steal your stuff. 

"I dnft know whaf you mean." he said with a mouthful of sweets. The pulse on your head grew. 

"You stuffed your face and you're acting like you didn't do it!!" 

You pulled out your zampaktou with a dark chuckle. He started to sweat nervously. He swallowed. 

"N-Now now, you wouldn't raise your blade against your captain." You smirked and he flash stepped away. You sighed glaring at the door.

"Baka."

~~~

"Things have been really slow." 

You were strolling through the Rukongai with Kensei. The both of you were on patrol, just to make sure nothing unusual was going on. Since your confession, things had actually been better than ever. Your feelings had been a weight you were carrying around all those years. 

Now that he knew you felt lighter. Of course at the beginning it was awkward. Kensei would refrain from touching you and patting your head at the beginning because he thought you didn't want the contact. You assured him that it was fine and now you talked to Kensei about everything. You were glad you never had to risk his friendship. In the back of your mind you were sort of relieved.

"I'm going to fall asleep if something doesn't happen soon." He said boredly.

"Is that so reaper?" 

You flinched, turning at the voice behind you. Neither of you had a chance to react. A tentacle came out at you, striking you in the shoulder. You gasped when the appendage went right through. It pulled back and you stumbled forward. (Y/N)!!" Kensei's eyes blazed. You were shocked when his reiatsu released in a burst. He pulled his mask on and the hollow look just as surprised. 

"H-How do you possess a mask!You're a reaper!" 

It sounded panicked. Kensei raised his blade, slicing the hollow directly down its center. It let out a shrill cry disappearing. When it was gone Kensei turned to you, his mask vanishing. He picked you up into his arms. You winced slightly. Your shoulder was bleeding badly. 

"U-Usually I could sense them better.." you said apologetically. He grunted. 

"Stop talking I'm getting you help." he took off with you in tow.

~~

Hanataro was tending to a patient when Kensei appeared out of nowhere. The blue haired boy stumbled back. "M-Muguruma-taicho!!" Kensei didn't waste time. He placed you on an empty bed. "She needs help!" Hanataro moved forward watching the huge hole in your shoulder. 

You had fallen unconscious on the way. "Please wait outside." Hanataro instructed. Kensei was about to object, but Unohana walked in. 

"He can't work efficiently if you hover around. So please wait outside. " 

She said it in a polite voice but the look in her eyes assured him that it wasn't a request. Kensei sweat dropped. "H-Hai.." he stepped out of the room as Hanataro got to work.

~

"Where is she!!" you jumped when you heard the door slam open. Shinji looked frantic. He stormed in the Fourth Squad barracks. You turned to Shinji with a blush. He stopped short when he saw your attire. Your shoulder was covered with gauze and you had your black bottoms on, trying to pull the top part back over your body. 

You were holding your uncovered chest. You didn't think anyone would come in so you didn't think twice about changing. Now you realize that was a wrong move. You spun around dropping to your knees with a scream and Shinji finally reacted. He ran out of the room hurriedly. Shinji's cheeks were visibly red.

"I-I had no idea she was so.."

Hanataro appeared, hearing the scream. "Is she hurt!!" he panicked, rushing in the room.

"H-Hey wait!!" Hanataro had already entered.

"K-KYAH!!!" Hanataro came running out almost immediately with flushed cheeks. He stumbled back hitting the wall. The door was wide open now. Shinji ducked when he saw a lamp come hurtling out the room. It hit Hanataro square in the face.

"P-PERVERTS!!!" you shouted embarrassed.

~~~~

"S-Sorry Hanataro..." the male was on a bed being attended to. He laughed. "I-It's fine I should have knocked." You were now fully clothed. You directed a glare at you captain.

"I w-was worried." he defended. You sighed. You bowed to Hanataro, thanking him for his help as you left him to rest. "Next time knock why don't you." He looked away.

"Sorry, the last time you got injured you didn't even say anything. When Kensei came and told me what happened it sounded bad. Then again I just took off so maybe it wasn't as bad as I assumed." you looked at him. "He must have been really worried.." you smiled up at him.

"I'm fine taicho." you assured him. He glanced at you. His eyes seemed focused on your shoulder. He could see the bandages peeking out from the side of your neck. "Kensei was worried too." he commented. You nodded. "Yeah, I should probably let him know that I'm okay. "

"You should be more careful, you underestimate hollows sometimes." You raised your head with a huff, walking off in the front angrily. 

"I know, I'm not a kid. You don't have to keep lecturing m-" you paused when you felt his arms wrap around you from the behind. His buried his face into your shoulder. His hair tickled your neck and your breath hitched. 

"I just want you to be safe (Y/N).."

You didn't reply verbally, just nodded your head. Lately it felt like things were changing between you and Shinji. He was a lot more...affectionate. 

"I'll b-be careful." you stuttered out. 

"Good girl.." 

He whispered against your ear. A pleasant shiver ran up your spine and you clenched your fist to keep yourself from making a sound. Why was his words affecting you? He always made comments like that before. Albeit always in a teasing fashion but still. Why did it feel different now?

Shinji watched you when he raised his head. Studying how much his words seem to be affecting you. He grinned. "So adorable. " he loved your innocent reactions. Teasing you always made his day. He liked that he was the one making your breath hitch. He was responsible for the redness that seemed to grace your cheeks now. He pulled away, turning you around slowly. Your eyes were trying to look at anything but his face.

His palm came down, lifting your chin. Your eyes darted up almost immediately, trembling. He could see the emotion behind them. He loved the way you were looking at him now.

"That's right, don't look at anyone that way but me."

Shinji had seen all those years you were pining over Kensei. There was always a longing in your eyes. He had to admit it made him jealous. But the look in your eyes now. The raw emotion, it gave him hope. It gave him life.

 "Shinji..." even the way you said his name. It made him want to ravish you. 

"How have I been able to resist you all these years?" 

He really had no idea. Sheer luck maybe. You were nibbling your lower lip nervously. Your eyes searching his.

"Is..this real?" 

You weren't sure anymore. Maybe you were hallucinating. That hollow must have put a number on you. At this point you didn't care. You just wanted him closer. Shinji leaned forward, and you were apparently doing the same. Your eyelids lowered with every passing second that he got close.

"Shin.."

"SHINJI!!!" you jumped back when something green crossed your vision, tackling Shinji to the ground. You stared owlishly for a few seconds.

"WHY THE HELL DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING!!!" He roared.

When you looked over Mashiro was clutching unto Shinji. She was pointing at the side.

"Kensei is being a bully again!!" she wailed. As if hearing his name he appeared. He looked pissed. His eyes softened when he saw you. 

"Hey, you're out already. I thought Hanataro said you needed to rest." you waved him off. "I'm fine with just a few scratches. Shinji stood with a grouchy look. "I'd appreciate it if your girlfriend didn't tackle me." He picked her up like a football, tossing her and you sweat dropped. She squealed when Kensei caught her with ease. 

"Don't worry I'll take care of her." he said with a sinister look. She paled.

"Save me (Y/N)-chan!!" You laughed awkwardly as he disappeared with her. You turned back to Shinji who still had a look of annoyance on his face. He caught your stare and you looked down quickly. 

"W-We should get back." you said hurriedly. You were already walking off and he followed behind. You knew he was staring at you, you could feel his eyes drilling holes in your back. You flushed.

Things were changing alright.

Bleach Fanfiction- Chapter 5

(Y/N)-san look!" your eyes moved over to the enthusiastic female. You smiled at the weird expression Orihime made with her eyes. 

"How the hell do you do that!? Your eyes look like three's!!" 

Ichigo was freaking out and you belt out a loud laugh at his confusion.

"Pftt- HAHAHAHAHHA!!!! 

You kept laughing, holding your stomach. Orihime smiled warmly at your laugh and slowly but surely a smile made its way on Ichigo's face. You were wiping at your eyes, still recovering from your laughing fit. You looked up when you slowly started to calm down. You flushed when you saw them both staring at you. "A-Ah s-sorry.." you said softly. Orihime shook her head.

"We're happy, you finally laughed. You looked so sad for a while now. I just wanted to see you smile." your eyes widened. 

"Yeah, you've been sulking since you left the Soul Society. " You bit your lip, keeping silent. Orihime took your hands. "It's okay. Whenever you wanna talk we're here for you (Y/N)-san." you gave her a grateful smile. 

"T-Thank you Inoue." she nodded and Ichigo brought his hand down on your head. You feel forward at the weight. 

"That being said, no more sulking around, it's pissing me off. "

"F-Fine!" you said pushing his hand away. Ichigo looked down at you. 

"By the way where's Shinji? Isn't he your captain? Did he send you here to do his work." You were about to answer when you heard a knock on Orihime's door. 

"Oh, someone's here?" She stood and Ichigo looked at her quizzically. 

"Were you expecting someone?" she shook her head, moving to the door. You stood up too. When you felt the familiar wave of energy you took a few steps back.

"C-Crap!" you were about to slip out. You weren't ready. Ichigo noticed your sudden change. He grabbed you by the collar when you had turned to run off. 

"Where do you think you're going?" you glared. 

"L-Let me go I-Ichigo!! You don't understand I have to-"

"You have to face him." you stared at him shocked. 

"I knew something was up the moment you came without Shinji. He never lets you out of his sight. He'd never send you on a mission alone." you looked down. Ichigo's hand dropped, releasing you. "If you want to run go ahead."

You shifted on your legs. Ichigo smirked. "Tired of running away huh." You finally looked up, when Orihime walked back she was with someone. "Guys look who stopped by!" your eyes shook when they connected with your blond captain.

"Shinji.." you whispered. His eyes looked resolute. "We have to talk. " you nodded.

"Yeah..."

~~~

You left Orihime's house, walking with Shinji. He didn't say anything. You'd never seen him look so serious. He was also wearing casual clothes to fit in. A black shirt with a tie and slacks. You weren't sure what to say. 

"S-Shinji I-"

"Save it. It was bad enough you neglected to tell me about your earlier injury, but you took off on a mission without my consent. You're reckless and you could have gotten hurt." your shoulders dropped. "I-I'm sorry." you apologized. He stopped walking, turning to you. 

"I should have you do desk duty for the next six months just for that." you didn't care about any punishment.

Hell you would run around the Soul Society naked if it meant he'd forgive you for what you said to him. He just looked at you, and you thought he was going to confront you for blaming him about what happened with Kensei. His hand raised and you shut your eyes. When his palm rested on your cheek your eyes sprung open. He was looking at you so tenderly.

"I don't blame you for what you said. You were angry, I understand that. We can't help who we fall in love with (Y/N). Sometimes we just end up getting hurt. " your lips quivered.

"There's nothing wrong with you, so stop being so hard on yourself. " Shinji's words made your heart swell. His thumb swiped the stray tear that fell from your eyes. "It's alright to feel vulnerable. I won't think any less of you (Y/N). Just come to me next time you're hurting. Don't run away. You don't know how worried I was that you were maybe somewhere in pain. And I couldn't help. " the look in his eyes, it made your stomach churn. 

"I-I never meant for that to happen.." you said softly. His stare was so intense your throat felt dry.

All the years you had known Shinji, he never looked at you like that. 

"S-Shinj-" his thumb brushed your lower lip and you froze. Your body tensed as you struggled to keep his heated gaze. 

"I should punish you for the confusion you caused..." his tone was low and you swallowed. His eyes lowered to your lips. His mouth opened slightly and you could see his tongue ring peeking out. You felt like the air had gotten thick around you. You couldn't speak, couldn't breathe. All you could hear was the strumming of your heart at how close Shinji's face seemed to be to you now. 

"Very naughty.." he murmured leaning in.

"BALDY!!!!" 

All you saw was a slipper coming at incredible speed. You didn't have a chance to warn Shinji before it whacked him at the side of his head. The force sent him barrelling the ground in a jumbled heap. You blinked, just watching. You were still in a daze.

"DAMN IT HIYORI!!!" 

Shinji raged when he picked himself off the ground. They both started bickering, throwing punches and kicks at each other. You watched the scene, fingers moving to your lips. "For a moment there I thought he was going to.." you shook your head. It was ridiculous. Shinji didn't see you that way.

Bleach Fanfiction - Chapter 3

"I love you Mashiro." 

You woke up with a start, looking around your room startled. Your hand moved to your forehead. 

"Was it..a dream?" your eyes looked up and Shinji was sitting at the side of your bed, his eyes landed on you. 

"You're awake. " he gave you a sympathetic look and that's when you knew. 

"So I didn't just dream that. " you swallowed. Your eyes felt like they were about to well up again. 

"W-Well at least I finally know how he feels right." you laughed but it wasn't genuine. You just kept laughing stupidly. 

"I-It's not even that big a deal really. P-People get rejected all the time. I'm being over dramatic." you pushed off your sheets as you stood.

"We should probably get back to the squad. Who knows what's going on there without you to watch them. " you walked over to the door not meeting his eyes.

"(Y/N)." you stopped at his call. Shinji rose to his feet. He walked over to you, with every step he took closer you felt like your mask was going to break. He was now directly behind you. 

When his hand touched your shoulder you tensed. You didn't want to look at him. You couldn't. You already broke down in front of him, you wanted to keep what little dignity you had left.

"There's nothing to be ashamed of. I'd be more worried if you didn't react to this." your shoulders trembled at his words. 

"At least now you can move on. " Anger sparked in your eyes. You spun around slapping his hand away.

"W-Why did you have to get involved!!" you shouted. Shinji took a step back.

"I- I was just trying to.." you shook your head. 

"You just wanted to make a fool of me!! I told you!! I told you and you kept encouraging me. THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT I HATE YOU SHINJI!!!" 

You didn't give him a chance to reply. You slid the door open roughly, diving into the sky as you rubbed at your eyes aggressively. Shinji stood there in shock. He looked down at the hand you slapped away in regret. Your words had really stung.

~~~

"Have you seen (Y/N)?" After you stormed off Shinji thought it was best to give you space. He knew you were just emotionally distraught now and he didn't blame you. It was his fault. He should have just left it alone. It had been at least two days and he hadn't seen you at all. 

He was starting to get worried. You weren't at your quarters, or Kensei's, Lisa's or even Love's barracks. Shinji was standing in the Fourth Barracks now, looking down at the blue haired healer. Hanataro shook his head. 

"She hasn't been here since the last time that hollow hit her in the side." Hanataro said absentmindedly. Shinji's eyes widened. 

"When was this!?" Shinji demanded. Hanataro flinched realizing what he said. 

"O-Oh! A-Ah. Did I say that? I-I must be tired. I haven't seen her in months!" Hanataro laughed to play it off but Shinji just glared at him. Hanataro shrunk under the gaze. "S-She told me not to say anything. It was a week ago. She's fine now. She just didn't want you to worry Hirako-taichou."

"Tch, so she can trust you but not her own taicho!" Shinji stormed out, flashtepping. When he was out of the building. He tried his best to track your reiatsu but he couldn't feel a thing.

"Where the hell is she!? " Shinji was worried now. 

"Maybe I should go to the Head Captain. What if she got injured again and didn't come to me because of what happened. " 

His heart dropped just imagining you were somewhere probably bleeding. He turned on his feet about to take off again.

"Shinji!" the yell stopped him. 

"Hey, I thought you and (Y/N) got a mission in Karakura?" Shinji looked confused. "What? I never signed off on any mission."

"Oh, well I guess it was just (Y/N). Have you spoken to her? She's...I feel like she's been avoiding me." Kensei said. Shinji sighed heavily. 

"She's in love with you." Shinji said Kensei's eyes widened. It wasn't going to do any good keeping him in the dark. 

"She heard you telling Mashiro that you love her a few nights ago. She didn't tell me the whole story but it broke her." Kensei's eyes wavered. "I.." he wasn't sure what to say. 

"You don't have to explain. This will all blow over so you don't have to worry about it. I just need to talk to her. "

"I didn't know." Kensei said. Shinji looked at him. 

"It wouldn't have made a difference. Do you think the outcome would have been different if she told you directly?" Kensei couldn't answer.

"If you accepted her confession out of pity, that would have been far worse than any rejection. Trust me." Shinji patted Kensei on the shoulder. 

"Let me worry about her now, she's my responsibility." Kensei looked reluctant, but he nodded. 

"Alright." 

Shinji took off this time.

"When I find you I'm gonna give you a piece of my mind!"
