Shuuhei/Hanatarou Side Story for Ukitake-Sex Therapist
Alternative Title: Locked Together

This takes place one month after Shuuhei’s visit to Ukitake to learn how to treat a smaller, weaker man. Yeah…they really drug their feet and would probably still be if not for…Well, you’ll just have to read the story to figure that our, won’t you?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Yamada, Hanatarou, you have been summoned to the ninth division, please go as soon as possible.”

Hanatarou just looked up, a bit surprised at the command but nodding all the same. “Ahhh, yes, of course, thank you, I’ll go now.” He said standing and pulling his bag up on his shoulder before walking away from the masked man. He figured he was just part of the Special Forces who always wore masks and spoke in chopped terms. Being in the second division does that to a person. He didn’t even think to expect it was a trick…he would know soon enough however.

“That was a dirty, dirty trick.” Ukitake murmured, watching as Hanatarou walked towards the ninth division. The white haired captain reached up, tugging off the other mans black mask without a token of hesitation. “What do you plan to do when he gets there? The ninth division certainly did not call him.” He said, looking up at the other captain. Apparently his best friend had thought that tricking the small man into going to the ninth division would be a good idea. “Come on Shunsui, what were you thinking?”

Shunsui just waved his hand, grinning innocently as he watched the fourth division member disappear. “It’s been a month, Jyuu, it’s about damned time they got together.” He murmured, throwing his arm around the other captain’s shoulder and pulling him away from the park. “Let’s go get a drink; I have this all under control.” He said, grinning as he pulled Ukitake into the bar. “Just trust me.”

Ukitake looked a bit apprehensive but just nodded, looking back at where Hanatarou had disappeared before ducking and stepping into the bar. He didn’t want to know what else Shunsui had done; he really didn’t want to know because he didn’t want to be involved in it when it all blew up. Shunsui always had lots of idea…and only a very few of them actually worked.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hanatarou was not prepared for it when he was suddenly shoved into a supply closet, a high pitched squeak escaping his throat when he stumbled, almost falling to the floor. “What…” He looked around, taking a deep breath as he tried to acclimate to the dimness of the supply closet.

“Ikkaku can be surprisingly strong when he puts his mind to it.”

Hanatarou jumped, looking into the dark with wide eyes. “Ahhh…wh…what?” He swallowed a bit, letting his bag fall to the floor as he really took in the room. They had apparently redone it into a…bedroom. It actually looked fairly comfortable, there was a large bed, nightstands, even dressers and a door leading to the bathroom. The only problem…they were locked inside. “That was…Ikkaku-san?” He asked, not having fully recognized who it was yet.

“Ikkaku and Kira.” Shuuhei murmured, stretching slightly. “Of course, I believe that had some outside help.” He said, chuckling slightly as he shook his head.

The little healer’s eyes widened when he finally figured out who he was locked in the supply closet with. He blushed deeply, his hands fisting in his hakama as he shook slightly. “Shuu…Shuuhei-fukutaicho…I’m sorry, I’ve been so disrespectful.” He said, quickly bowing to the other man as a sigh of respect.

Shuuhei just shook his head, patting the bed beside him. “No need to be so formal.” He murmured, actually finding himself liking his predicament. It had been a month since he had gone to the white haired captain for help on how to treat a smaller man and he just hadn’t had time to pursue their relationship. Running a squad was hard, especially when you didn’t have a captain. “Come and sit down, I believe we were locked in here together for a reason.” He said, holding his hand out. “We’ve been found out, Hanatarou, by everyone but each other.”

Hanatarou couldn’t help but blush even deeper, his eyes wide as he watched the lieutenant. “Foun…found out?” He asked, wrapping his arms around himself in a nervous gesture. He received another shock when Shuuhei suddenly moved, tumbling him onto the bed. He looked up at the other man, his eyes wide. “Shuu…Shuuhei-” He eeped slightly again when the other put his finger over his lips, shushing him softly.

“Shhh, stop right there.” Shuuhei murmured, leaning half way over the smaller mans body. “I like that…my name coming from your lips.” He said, taking a deep breath and trying to boost his confidence. “Please stop calling me Fukutaicho.” He let his finger trail from Hanatarou’s lips to his neck, touching him with only one finger. “We were put in here for a reason.” He started, taking another deep breath as he leaned even closer to the smaller man, his breath fanning over Hanatarou’s face.

“If you don’t at least kiss him, we’re not letting you out!”

Shuuhei chuckled softly, letting his forehead lean against Hanatarou’s as the voice rang through the door, clearly Ikkaku’s. “See, I told you.” He murmured, looking back towards the door before back at Hanatarou. “We both know…we both went to him.” He said, sighing softly. “Just tell me now…if you didn’t go to him for me… and I’ll let you go… I won’t force anything on you.” He wanted to reassure the little healer that this wasn’t something he had to do; he could leave at any time even if the door was locked. Ikkaku and Kira would let them out if they really, really wanted to get out. He was sure that Ikkaku and Kira wouldn’t force him to stay locked together with him if he didn’t want to be with the lieutenant.

Hanatarou just looked up at him, his eyes widening slightly. “You…went to him for me?” He asked, his voice barely coming out in a whisper as he took in the information. “Really…for me?” He couldn’t really believe that Shuuhei Hisagi, the Shuuhei Hisagi, the man that half of Sereitei called a sex god had gone to the captain for HIM. “I…I did…” He said, swallowing as he looked up at Shuuhei. “I went…to him for you.” He whispered, biting his lip a bit. “I…I don’t want you to…let me go.” He said it with confidence he didn’t have…but he KNEW he wanted the other man. It was just such a big shock that he was wanted back.

“Then I’ll never let you go.” Shuuhei murmured, leaning down and finally kissing Hanatarou for the first time. His body pressed against the smaller one, the gentle press of an embrace wanted for so long. They came together easily after that, the teachings of the gentle captain settled in the back of their minds as they touched and kissed, taking in the feeling of just being together.

They didn’t leave the storage closet for three days.

Kira smiled as he looked over at Shuuhei and Hanatarou. They weren’t sitting on top of each other but they were pretty damned close. They had both seemed so much happier since they had been trapped in the closet. They had a good reason to be too, they were an adorable couple and so obviously in love. “We did a good job, didn’t we Ikka?” He asked, looking up at his own lover with a smile.

Ikkaku just smiled, running his hand through Kira’s short, blonde hair. “Yeah, we did.” He said, pulling the lieutenant into a kiss. “My little matchmaker, I sure hope you’re happy with yourself.”

Kira just nodded and smiled, almost bouncing in Ikkaku’s lap. “Yes, yes, I am very happy with myself.”

Across the room, Shuuhei and Hanatarou were whispering to each other, the smaller man wrapped up in the lieutenants arms and very happy where he was. They exchanged soft words before kissing gently. If anyone was listening…or anyone cared to hear, there were three words that were finally able to spoken out loud, over and over again:

“I love you.”

And all because they were pushed towards each other, a dirty trick played out with marvelous results.

Locked together.
