Emerald Sun

She woke up and couldn't help but notice her body was well rested. Orihime yawned and rolled over to see him still sound asleep. She smiled and flopped down on her stomach and was facing him. His body was like a marble statue in her bed, she had never seen him sleep. It hit her that Espada probably did not sleep like humans needed and finally decided to get up and make breakfast. She tip toed out of the room into her bathroom and scrambled for a note. She wrote on it " Follow your nose." it was written in cursive and left it next to him where she was. She then sneaked out of the door to the kitchen, it was easier then she thought it would be to sneak around him. Before he would be in front of her like a spirit and freak her out. But not this time...he was still sound asleep when she left. She laughed under her breath and went to her laundry room and found a baggy shirt Ichigo had lent her a while back. She put it on and walked to the kitchen and began to cook some food. For once she listened to recipe's and cooked. She didn't cook from her mind.



He shifted in his sleep and stretched as he smelled something different. It made his insides grumble and so he sat up and cracked his shoulders. He looked over to her side and saw the note. He read it slowly and walked out of the room, he was naked and really didn't care enough to be shy. He walked out of the room into the kitchen, he still walked quieter than a cat on the prowl. He wrapped his arms around from behind her and chuckled low at the shocked noise that came from her.



"You are naked! Oh crap...." She blushed.



"You don't like me naked?" He kissed her ear.



"Its not that silly...its just...watch this for one moment." she pointed at the food in the skillet and ran to the back of her room. He stood there and watched the food like she told him.



She scrambled through her room trying to find her brothers old clothes and then stopped, 'that would be weird' so she stopped that action and went to the bed and grabbed the sheet. She then smelled something burning and realized he didn't know what she meant by watch it. When she returned he was doing just as she thought he would and was staring at the food. She laughed and noticed it had only browned a little "Ulquiorra for another time, when I say watch something that I am cooking it means not to let it sit still. Or to not let it boil over." She noted.



He looked to her confused "Did I watch it wrong then?"



She looked away and felt bad " No you didn't know, I forgot..." She then handed him the sheet she brought from the other room. " Here you are going to where this like a skirt." She smiled and wrapped it around him and tucked it in by his waist. He smiled at her beaming face, she was so excited to see him wrapped up in it he couldn't help but let her do it. "There! You look pretty!If only I knew how to make a toga!" She smiled " You would make a perfect roman!" He didn't know what she was talking about, but he let her ramble while he stood there letting her do the finishing touches.

2 weeks later



"OH MY GOD" She covered her mouth in shock.



"What is wrong? Was that the wrong thing to say?" He asked.



"I-its nothing!" She nodded " You know what," She pointed at him " I think I will go to the doctor, right now." She nodded.



"Kurosaki's house?"



"The clinic there I normally go to anyway so I think I will. I want to check up on Rukia anyway." She smiled.



"Do you mind if I stay here?" He asked.



"I wouldn't mind, you can do what ever you like Ulquiorra." She leaned into his embrace.



"I don't want to be that boyfriend that is always there. I do. But in the bad way, there." He asked himself almost.



"I get it, and I thank you for it. But you are not being clingy. You give me lots of privacy." She smiled and nuzzled into his neck.



She got up off of the floor and went to the phone and called the clinic, she explained she had been sick lately and wanted to come and get looked at. They were more then happy to help her. She nodded at the phone a couple times and hung up. Ulquiorra sat at the couch and read, he had gotten reading glasses from Kurosaki's father and looked stunning in them.She smiled at how he read everything, he read every magazine he could get his hands on. He read every children book she had. Everything he could. He even read the cooking book to understand cooking better. She went to her room and got dressed and she was off.

"You are pregnant, Orihime." Isshin smiled.



"Is this a good thing?" Karin asked.



"I don't know."She began to cry.



Isshin felt bad for her, she didn't have anyone to talk to like every other person would. He rubbed her shoulders " I think he really cares for you.I don't think he will be angry."



"I don't know how espada's offspring situation works." She sniffled.



"Go to that idiot Grimmjow."



"What a great idea!" Orihime smiled.



"He reminds me of Ichigo." Isshin added.



"Yeah he does." Orihime nodded rubbing her eyes dry." Can you tell Rukia I said hello and please don't tel-



"We wouldn't do that." Karin noted.



She smiled and thanked the two for there help. She then left the clinic and hurried to Urahara's shop to see him walking there as well. "Grimmjow!" She yelled to him.



Grimmjow looked back and grinned "Hey you!" He smiled as she walked over to him. He gave her a quick hug and asked "How have you been?"



"I have been great, well...sort of."



"I was gonna say you haven't been to school for a couple days." He cocked an eyebrow seeing her play with her hair nervously. " What's wrong?" He spoke in a worried voice.



"Well...I think...well I know...I am pregnant."



Grimmjow dropped his shoulder bag and turned to her " You're pregnant?" He said in shock. The only thought that occurred to him was Aizen and this sickened him beyond belief. " Orihime I am sorry...I can help you as much as I can...I guess...don't know how to handle kids...but..."



She began to cry " Is it that bad?!" she gasped between breaths.



"Well...I mean...if you are ok with it...I didn't mean to make you cry." He said putting his arms around her. " You are a strong girl, you can make it through this."



"How do you think he will handle it?" She cried pitifully.



"Well, I don't know how I would handle it." He said nervously. " I guess...I would just be there for you. I mean you know all that love shit, doesn't really...I don't know."



"I think he will be angry."



"At Aizen Maybe."



She stopped crying and looked at him, " Wait...what?"



"Well why would he be mad at you? Its not like you asked Aizen to do what he did to you."



She then smiled " This isn't Aizen's."



"W-what?!" He looked confused.



"Its...Ulquiorra's."



"Oh." He scratched his head and began to blush. " Well...you know...with...what happen...I didn't....wel-AH fuck it! You and Ulquiorra are fucking?!"



She shushed him " Grimmjow!"



"What!? Have you?"



"Well...yeah...it is his."



"How can you be so sure?"



She looked away. " Aizen didn't do it inside of me." She swallowed hard.



"Oh...well...Ulquiorra won't be mad." He nodded.



"You don't think?"



"If its his, and he chose to fuck you. Man, you really have changed him." He turned to her and gazed into her eyes.



"...stop." She pushed him away.



"What its true." He looked away and finally picked up his bag. " besides you changed me too."



"I have?" She smiled



"I still want to kick the shit out Ichigo. But its dulled down. Besides. He took out Aizen." he nodded in approval.



"He still hasn't awoken from the day we first saw him. He passed out screaming, Rukia said it was normal and he should wake up soon. But its been 3 weeks now." She bit her lower lip.



"The fucker isn't dead so what ever." He shrugged.



"Grimmjow!" She pushed him again playfully. He snickered and turned to her " You sure, he won't be mad?" She said twiddling her fingers.



"You don't get it do you?" He rolled his eyes "Well I guess you wouldn't. When an Espada has a kid its like their mark on the world. They choose who they want to be with and if he has been fucking you, well he thought you were top notch,Creme de la creme. He thinks of you more then just a fuck toy like Nnoitra would have." He added.



She blushed a deep red "Is it like love?"



"Now I don't even know what the fuck that is? But...I guess?" He said questioning it.



"You don't know what love is?"



"What the fuck is love?!" He asked now getting angry.



Yoruichi walked around the corner "God you are loud, I can hear you from the house yelling that.Grimmjow, Urahara needs you." She nodded.



Grimmjow rolled his eyes and looked back at Orihime " Don't worry about it. It should go fine. Congrads?" He shrugged walking away towards Yoruichi.



She smiled "Thank you." She nodded, and began to walk home.Even though it was easier to feel the word sink in. She still was very nervous to tell him. She was a senior that year...how would it look?She bit her lip and thought things she didn't understand how to even answer these questions.
