RElationships are a gradual thing. They don't start from Scratch. So its a slow burner.

Haha.. Renji kinda has a harem going on.

ah.. this took too long to update. It's not as long as I would want but its an update!

:D

Read and review?

It's been days since that stupid Hikari chick checked on him- not that he's counting or whatever. He's somewhat relaxed. Mayne time alone is all that he needs and-
A knock against the shojo door was heard and Renji huffs. There goes my quiet time.

"Come in."

There was a slight hesitation along with slight giggles- Renji noted that as the shojo doors slide open.

"Abari Fukutai taichou.."

The voice greeted- Renji's eyes widen.

"Why are you here?"

Yoriko grins. "I'm here to deliver a message from Iba taichou." She walks toward his desk. "That's all- Why haven't I seen you?"

He huffs as he takes the letter. "I don't drink Saki anymore."

"Why not?" Yoriko bites her lower lip slightly frowning. "Everyone need an ear."

"I don't.""

"But its Saki- its meant to be shared."

"Well, I stopped drinking."

"But you never tried the pure, 100% saki before..."

"What's so great about it?"

"Its sooo smooth and rich- You don't have hangovers the next day."

"How do you even afford 100% saki?"

"I have my ways... Besides that!" Noriko beamed. "Its still good saki- wanna joi-"

"No thanks."

"Why give up on free saki and therapy?"

"I don't want saki and therapy."

"But saki... It brings joy and happiness... and you look like you have some kind of-"

"It causes more problems than solving it- did you just drink some?"

"But the instant relief- the thrill of feeling bliss..."

"Not interested."

"Well, when ever you feel like drinking saki alone..." She winks at him. "I'll be there."

She flutters away as Renji face palms. Such an annoying girl.


Byakuya is eternally grateful for Noriko who waiting next to her for the past few days. It was a very awkward phase for Byakuya who constantly thought, How did Hisana hide the pain?

Completely rejuvenated, Byakuya looks at the mirror-gripping the hem of his kimono sleeve. He's angry-confused- and at a loss of words. If only Unohana had a cure for what ever drink Urahara created- nevermind kurotsuchi mayuri. He's on the no go list.

Finally, Byakuya huffs and quickly shunpos towards division 6 to damage control.

He arrives at the shojo doors that divided him and Renji- Surprisingly, Byakuya didn't smell saki- maybe Renji is doing fine?

He huffs as he slid the shojo doors open.

Once the shojo doors slid open, Renji was relaxing at his desk- Feet propped up against the desk- leaning back against the chair relaxed- This stuck a chord in Byakuya.

The indecency- the lack of respect- the sheer unmotivation- Byakuya wasn't having it.

"Abarai san... " Byakuya called out as he slowly went inside- Byakuya is still getting use to being a female, "Why are your feet propped up on Byakuya sama's desk?Why aren't you doing anything productive? Why aren't you-"

'I'm done with the paper works and everything is already dispatched." Renji rolled his eyes. "Everything is fine-"

"Your feet are on top of Byakuya sama's desk... "Byakuya narrowed his eyes. "The desk isn't meant for that."

"Che, he's not here and I'm currently in charge..."

"But I'm here."Byakuya nearly flipped. "And I'll report back to him about your behavior and he'll-"

"He's sick. i get it." Renji huffs as he takes his feet off the desk. Byakuya isn't found at Renji's new found attitude.

"Is there any other tacks that need-"

"No."

"Then you have to sharpen your hand writing."

Renji nearly facepalmed. This Hikari chick is really getting on his nerves.

"My hand writing is fine."He snapped. "If they can read it- it doesn't-"

"It's a bad representation for division 6." Byakuya insisted. "Byakuya sama worked hard to upkeep the honor of division 6."

Renji rolled his eyes-mocking her-"Well then, PRINCESS Kuchiki, what should I do?"

Completely unphased, "I suppose you start practicing your penmanship- Abari san."

"Righhttttt.." Renji continues to mock. "Kuchiki taichou isn't here though... You're just his twin sister. You have no control of what I do."

"I can report back to him-"

"'cause that's what snitches do-right?"

Taken back a little, "I'm not a snitch."

Renji stuck a chord.

"Yeah you are." Renji started to gain some confidence. "You're going to Kuchiki taichou about this- meaning you're a snitch-snitch."

"No,"Byakuya confidently spoke. "I'm not. I am merely upholding my promise to Byakuya sama."

"Sure thing snitch." Renji grins- he found a loop hole."What ever you say snitch."

Renji could see Hikari's fuming face- the face that looks like it's been wrongly accused.

Smoothing herself out, Byakuya lets out a deep huff. "Take out a fresh scroll and ink block."

"I'll practice my handwriting later on..."

"Why not now? You have nothing to do."

"This is my me time."Renji sarcastically grins at Byakuya. "And you're interrupting."

"Then I will get the scrolls and ink blocks." Byakuya headed towards the shelf. "I will not let you tarnish the integrity of division 6."

Renji narrowed his eyes as he watched hikari- man does the tittle princess fits her.

She gets the scrolls and ink blocks and heads towards Renji. "I will teach you how to properly write."

Renji groans. "I'm not going to try-"

"Byakuya sama will be very displeased if he-"

"Hes not here- so I don't care." Renji rolls his eyes as he got up. "I'm spending my me times somewhere else."

And off Renji went, leaving a fuming Byakuya behind.


"Come on man," Ikkaku drunkenly slurred as leaned next Renji and slung his arm around Renji. "Kuchiki taichou's sister can't be that bad."

"She demanded me to learn how to properly write." Renji downed his half filled saki bottle. "She's so high maintenance."

"You need to man up."

Renji sighs."But she keep nagging and nagging- and this other chick-"

"Whoa-Whoa-whoa.." Ikkaku places his saki down."I don't talk about that bullshit

junk- ask Yumichika for-"

"I'm not pursuing anyone." Renji huffs. "I have other things to worry ab-"

"Happy hour!" A voice cheered- breaking Renji's thought. He looks at the direction of the voice and face palms. Its that Yuriko chick with a few of her friends- maybe if he laid low he could avoid her.

Renji, now, he's on incognito mode and- at all costs avoids being seen by that Yuriko chick. Its not that she's bad new or anything- he just doesn't feel like being bothered at the moment.

Though, what makes it difficult to actually stay incognito mode is that she's only tables away from where she's sitting with her friends- maybe she didn't notice him. Yeah. She did't notice him so that's a win for him.

Now, to wait things-

Hollow!

Renji and Ikkaku felt it-

Maybe that Yoriko chick will handle it.

He slowly peers at Yoriko who happily smiles and downs a bottle of saki- maybe she's an alcoholic?

Well, what ever she was- the hollow was near.

Renji looked at Ikkaku who was heavily intoxicated and-

"Its your turn." he heard a girlish voice said,

"But I haven't finish my-"

"Just go!"

With a heavy thump and a pout, Yoriko Shunpoed away. Renji lets out a sigh of relief. He doesn't have to deal with random chick.

He goes back to drinking with Ikkaku who tells Renji how he should man up when it comes to Bykuya's sister.

"Tell her off."

"She's Kuchiki taichou's sister.

"Ignore her."

"She's a snitch"

"Stay away from her."

"She always finds he in Kuchiki taichou's office- where I'm currently covering."

Ikkaku downed his 4th bottle of saki and sighs. "I feel bad for your sorry ass."
