Snow Kiss

Title: Snow kiss
Serie: Bleach
Warning: Shounen-ai / Yaoi
Note: This is MY part for the Secret Santa on IchiHitsu. I’m so used to write multi-chapter fics, that writing a one-shot is a good change.

Sitting in on his bed, tired and annoyed at the same time, Ichigo just wanted to scream out of frustration. They had told them that Orihime was gone, with no trace of struggle. It was like as if she had left willingly. He had left the apartment in fury. He was only caught up by Matsumoto Rangiku, the busty 10th division vice-captain. Still, he had barely talked to her. But he remembered one thing; she told him that her captain was feeling the same way about someone and that someone was a certain Hinamori. As far as he got the story, this person was a childhood friend of Toshiro.

Sighing, he looked outside. It was already dark outside and he could guess it was already cold outside, especially at this time of the year. Cold… This reminded him of Toshiro somehow. He sighed again; he didn’t know what was bothering so much; okay, the fact that Orihime was missing was part of it, but… What he remembered with his quick discussion with Matsumoto… He shook his head; he didn’t know why, but he kept thinking about the icy captain.

“Better calling it a night…” said Ichigo, grabbing his pyjamas.

Later

Night had fallen a few hours ago, and Ichigo was still awake. He couldn’t sleep and it was getting ridiculous. He had a lot on his mind, it wasn’t even funny. He sat down and grabbed his Shinigami badge; maybe a walk outside would help him to sleep a little. He quickly got out of his body and went out. He jumped from roof to roof, enjoying the cold breeze on him. He stopped on one roof and looked around; he was near Orihime’s apartment. He frowned; he really wished his mind hadn’t decided for him this time. He was about to leave when he felt a reitsu near him. He looked and saw Toshiro, on the next roof, looking at him. He too was in his shinigami form. They looked at each other for a few moments, until Ichigo decided to jump on the roof and joined the icy captain.

“Aren’t you suppose to be in Soul Society with the others?” asked Ichigo. It was a fact, Captain Yamamoto had asked the team to come back, but it seemed that Hitsugaya had stayed.

“I asked for one more day,” replied Hitsugaya. “I wanted to investigate the matter a little bit more.”

“So you mean…” said Ichigo.

“Don’t get any ideas Kurosaki, I just want to confirm the information,” added Hitsugaya immediately.

“I see…” said Ichigo, looking away. “But… Don’t you have someone to return to?”

“She’s not ready to see me…” replied Hitsugaya.

“You mean Hinamori?” asked Ichigo.

Hitsugaya glared at the orange haired teenager. He had some ideas how the substitute shinigami had this information and not doubt what will happen to the say person, but right now, that didn’t matter. He looked at the substitute shinigami; the teenager was looking away, right toward Orihime’s apartment. He had observed that Kurosaki had been upset, to say the least, about her disappearance. What made it worst was that the last person how had seen her was Kuchiki Rukia and she didn’t know what happen either; Orihime was right behind her before all the events. And now Captain Yamamoto had said that Orihime was with Aizen.

“I just… I really want to know what happen…” said Ichigo. “Orihime would never go to Aizen… She saw, just like me his true colors… I just… I just don’t get it!”

“We are missing a few pieces of the puzzle,” said Hitsugaya. “Until then, we can’t make assumptions of why she left.”

“Well… Say that to the old man…” whispered Ichigo.

“Idiot… Commander Yamamoto had no other choice since…” started to say Hitsugaya.

“Since what? Since she disappeared without any clues? We don’t know if she was forced in any kind of way! She might have been black-mailed as far as I’m concern!” yelled Ichigo. “Don’t you think it would be a tactic that Aizen guy would use?”

Hitsugaya was taken aback – even if he didn’t show it physically – with what Ichigo said; this would be a plan that Aizen could come up with. The possibilities were high, but he didn’t have proof. Hitsugaya looked at Ichigo again and could see that the teen was more upset than before.

Ichigo was close to snap even more when he felt something cold falling on his nose. He blinked and looked up to see snowflakes falling slowly from the dark sky. It was like as if the snow made his worries and anger melt away. After a few minutes, he looked away and watched Toshiro; the child-like captain was still staring at the falling snow, but he had an expression he never seen on the captain’s face. Hitsugaya was relaxed and barely smiling. It seems that the snow made the young captain relax. Ichigo walked toward Hitsugaya and stopped when he was next to him. He couldn’t help but to observe the other shinigami; his hair started to be covered with snow and fall down a little. He didn’t know he was staring at the other shinigami until the later was glaring at him.

“What?” asked Ichigo.

“Stop staring, it’s annoying,” replied Hitsugaya.

“Sorry…” said Ichigo. “Err… Toshiro, about your friend…”

“Hinamori was Aizen’s vice-captain…” said Hitsugaya. “Aizen almost killed her. And it’s Captain Hitsugaya!”

Ichigo just ignored the remark and looked at the snow falling. It took awhile when Ichigo started to get cold. He looked at Hitsugaya and the later didn’t seem to be even bothered by the cold, than again, the captain had an ice zanpakuto.

“You better leave if you feeling cold,” said Hitsugaya. “You would be useless if you catch a cold.”

“I’m not cold,” replied Ichigo, barely restraining his teeth to clap.

Hitsugaya sighed and grabbed Ichigo’s arm. The orange haired teenager was about to complain when the icy captain glared at him. Using quick-step, both of the shinigamis found themselves in front of Ichigo’s home very quickly. Both getting in quickly, Ichigo sat down in his bed, while Hitsugaya sat near the window, looking outside. Snow was heavily falling now.

“You sure want to go back out in this weather?” asked suddenly Ichigo.

“What else I could do?” said Hitsugaya. “Beside, I have to leave early.”

“You can stay here you know,” added Ichigo.

Hitsugaya just looked at him weirdly before watching the snow fall again and sigh. He might as well do that, but he didn’t have his gigai around since he had brought it back to Urahara a few hours ago.

“Fine…” finally said Hitsugaya.

“You can taker Rukia’s closet if you want… And… HEY! That’s MY BED!” said Ichigo.

Truth to be told, Hitsugaya had pulled off his haori, sandals and zankupato and was currently under the bed’s cover, Ichigo’s bed to be more precised. Ichigo immediately wanted to kick the shinigami out of the bed, before he remembered to get back in his gigai and then get to bed. He pushed Hitsugaya a little, not without the captain protesting, before getting on his side, facing Hitsugaya and started to fall asleep.

Morning

The sun was high and snow had stopped falling during the night. During the same night, something unexpected happen; in the Kurosaki household, two boys were cuddled up in the same bed, sleeping peacefully.

Ichigo woke up first, looking amused a little; Hitsugaya looked even more adorable asleep and cuddled up to him. He gently played with the small captain’s hair, trying not to wake him up. Suddenly, he moved without thinking and kissed the young captain gently, on the lips. The young captain’s lips tasted like winter and they were soft. It was until he had finished and pulled away he realized what he had done. He quickly started to get a little nervous; what if Hitsugaya woke up while he kissed him?

He was about to try to found a good excuse if it was the case when he felt Hitsugaya moving beside him. When Ichigo looked at him, Hitsugaya was awake and staring at him. Ichigo was nervous…

“Mind to move? I need to get going…” said Hitsugaya.

“Err… Sure…” replied Ichigo, nervous as ever.

He moved and let Hitsugaya get his haori, sandals and zanpakuto before opening the window and leave. The young captain gave the substitute shinigami and left.

“What was that for…” said Ichigo to himself.

Outside

Hitsugaya was wondering what took over Kurosaki to do that. For god’s sake, the substitute shinigami had kissed him! And yet… He wasn’t angry, but frustrated; it’s not that he didn’t like it, but why did the shinigami kissed him while he was snoozing. What made the thing a little bit more frustrating was the fact it was his first kiss… Hitsugaya shook his head; this was not the time to actually think about this.

But somehow, during the war against Aizen, both boys would always think about each other…
