Emerald Sun

"Grimmjow." A chilling voice came through the air.



Grimmjow glowered at the voice and rose to his feet and walked to the den of the king. He didn\'t hurry or anything on that matter he just walked to it. He was pissed that he was even going to talk to Aizen.Finally he was in front of the door and opened it, instantly the smell of blood filled his senses.But it wasn\'t only blood it was so much more then blood. He saw Orihime laying in a pool of liquid. Her body was scratched and bruised beyond anyone\'s belief. Grimmjow\'s eyes widened as he didn\'t move from the doorway, seeing her like that was not what he expected. Aizen wiped his sword flicking the blood off of the shiny blade. Grimmjow didn\'t speak a word but continued into the room. When he passed her she didn\'t flinch, she didn\'t move. She just laid where she was staring aimlessly into the cieling. Aizen spoke " Take her to your room and do what you want with her. Maybe she will learn some manners from you," Aizen commanded " Not that you have any." He said.



Grimmjow turned back to her limp body and his eyes fell heavy lidded. He didn\'t like this, not at all. He didn\'t object for some reason though, he just walked to her body and kneeled down to her level. Her eyes widened as he got close to her, he looked into her eyes. Utter terror is all that was seen in her iris\'s. " Just come with me."He whispered in a tone he had never spoke in. It even surprised himself.



He put his hands under her knees and around her neck, gently he lifted her body and she began to shake violently in fear. He began to walk out of the room when Aizen spoke once more " And by the way,Orihime." He paused "you may heal everything except for you virginity, that is mine." He spoke.



The sixth espada felt her body tense up at his voice, and when he finished the sentence she leaned into him and began to sob as quiet as she could. His eyebrows arched in shock at the gesture she did. She would rather be near him then in the midst of Aizen.



He continued out the door and walked to his room slowly. He finally was there and set her gently on the bed. He then covered her body up with the covers and sat next to the bed.



"...I am not going to...you know..." He gestured his hands at her general body.



She spoke hoarsely " It doesn\'t matter." She cried convulsing in the bed.



"Just shut your eyes and go to sleep, I am going to go find something to clean you up." He spat.



Grimmjow wasn\'t good at being nice, but Orihime could rest knowing that he wasn\'t going to hurt her.When he got back she was asleep soundly. Her face was swelling and he could see her eyes were puffy. He had a bowl of iced water and a rag. He couldn\'t believe that he did this to her, why didn\'t he just kill her?! He couldn\'t understand it. Grimmjow began to gently dab at her wounds and clean off her face and neck. She didn\'t open her eyes. He gently uncovered her body and continued. When finally he was done her eyes opened as he did finish up, he rang the cloth out and was about to get up when he heard her voice.



"Why did you clean me up?" She asked in a whisper.



"You kind of needed it." He paused after saying it warmly he then realized how pansyish that sounded and retorted "Plus you smelled." He spat.



"oh." She said naturally smelling her skin. " Thank you.I have one question...if I-



"Go on ask?" He said rising to his feet and setting the bowl aside on the floor near the door.



"Are you gonna continue?"



"No."Grimmjow closed his eyes



"..."



"I am not interested in fucking your brains out for my pleasure. I want the one I fuck to actually want it." He said in a cold voice.



"...thanks..."



"for?"



"Not hurting me."



"yeah whatever." He said sitting away from her on the bed." Just don\'t think I-



She then leaned against his back and shut her eyes.Her orange hair was a mess but fell delicately around his shoulders. He would have finished,he wanted to but...he couldn\'t. The gesture was so simple and so small but it felt so...right.



Grimmjow turned to her and got under the covers with her. He made sure she gently landed on the bed, she had already seen a war and it was obvious in her eyes. Grimmjow for what ever reason did not want to harm her, he almost wanted to protect her.He gulped lifting a hand to her round face and was about to meet contact with her skin when the door opened.



He sat up abruptly looking in the door way was Ulquiorra " Aizen has ordered me to come and take her to her room."



"The fuck? How about knocking next time?" Grimmjow spat.



Ulquiorra had no response for the comment, he knew she was sleeping. He could tell by her breathing. He walked around the bed and uncovered her. She didn\'t move and was naked.Her body was destroyed, her lips were puffy, her eyes blackened, her hair a mess and her body had scratches and bruises all over her. Ulquiorra felt inside of him something that he had never felt. It felt like he was falling inside. Like his organs were turning at the sight of her body. Grimmjow\'s voice was calm " ...yeah...she is pretty fucked up." But go ahead take her...maybe you could-



"get her some clothes." Ulquiorra completed the sentence and lifted her from the bed, she was dead weight and fell against him, her head was in the crook of his neck. He didn\'t make eye contact with Grimmjow just took her back to the room that was given to her.



On the way back she opened her eyes and could feel the cool skin against hers. His fingers were under her legs and his other ones were on her shoulder. Her eye lashes batted a bit in confusion, was she now just a ball? She didn\'t move her head at all but brought her hand up to his neck and placed it on his thick visible vein. " ...do you hate me?"



"That should be the last thing on your mind." He said confused



"...but it isn\'t."



"..."



"When...he...was in there...I thought your name over and over....I just wanted you to come save me."



"Why would you think I would save you?"



"I don\'t know...you were the only person I thought that might."



He didn\'t speak anymore, he just kept walking as she continued to trace her finger on his vein. His blood was rushing through his body and he couldn\'t quiet explain why, but it felt extremely good to be touched in the manner she was. She rested her head still against his body his skin was like marble, it was smooth and cold and to be completely honest. It felt great against her sore body.



"That is strange." he spoke low and in a dark whisper.



" what?"



" What you are doing."



"is it a good strange?" She asked.



"I think so."He spoke looking down at her rested eyes and felt a surge of heat go through his body, what was this feeling.



"You think, huh?" She kind of smiled.



"..."



They arrived at the doorway of the room and he could feel her shift in his arms as he walked towards the bed. Ulquiorra\'s thumb moved on her leg soothing her nerves. It was a strange notion but he did it without thinking. He was confused at how he moved so freely with out reason around her, he tried to not to do it but his body just did it instinctively. He walked to the bed and set her down gently, as he was lifting back up she followed his movements and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. His eyes widened and he finally spoke "What are you doing?"



"Hugging you."



"Hugging?" He was confused at the gesture



She nuzzled into his neck and she finally asked him quietly " Please...just put your arms around me I need the contact." Even if it was a foreign contact she needed the comfort. He slowly in a very awkward manner wrapped his arms around her small frame and could feel the strangeness in her warmth. He closed his eyes as she lay quietly in his arms. His acute hearing could hear her heart beating,thudding slowly and calmly as his arms were around her. She finally pulled away, his arms pulled back and he could feel the warmth still on his body. "Why are you so cold?" She asked.



"Its my body temperature." He said closing his eyes, he slowly began to walk away and before he left he spoke " You are in my care again." He spoke leaving her to her lonesome.



Author note: So I hope you liked this one. Ulquiorra is soooooo cute, and Grimmjow I feel would act this way in this situation.
