Worth It

It started with a simple question, "Are you alright Kurosaki-kun?" and the next thing he knew his arms were full, Ichigo's lean body pressed to his kissing him desperately. He pulled away and asked again what was wrong, but all the boy could do was mumble incoherently. It was alright though Urahara still understood. Things had gone terrible in Hueco Mundo and of course Ichigo blamed himself for everything. All he needed was comfort, someone to tell him everything would be alright, someone to hold him, love him. So as warm hands slid inside his shirt Urahara decided it would be worth any guilt he'd feel later to offer this one comfort, it was worth anything to protect Ichigo from himself.
