Kisuke was taking a drink as he almost choked on it with Gin's last statement. "You two keep it down in there tonight. We do have children in this house and if Kita is screaming, you'll get Kenji in there in the middle of you both."Gin turned his look to Kisuke with his signature smile. "Keep your kid in line, Shopkeeper. I will promise nothing."Kisuke shrugged. "if it comes to his sister, there is no control. He is too protective of her." Gin only waved and continued on his way out.Kisuke looked to Tessai with a wide smile. "Might want to dig up earplugs for everyone tonight. I have a feeling we are going to need them."
Tessai laughed as he turned and walked from the room, leaving Kisuke there alone to enjoy his tea.

"Torikkī Kitsune":It was after work as Kita walked into a silent shop. Nothing really new there, most of Kisuke’s clientele were soul reapers and with the peace for the last eight years, the shop has not really been booming. Making her way through the shop to the back she pushed opened the door stepping into the house. It too was silent, almost in a creepy way.
“Kisuke, Tessai?” Kita called out.
Both men poked their heads out from different rooms calling back to her. Kita giggled softly as she looked to Tessai as he was the one closest to her. “I got her, Boss.” Tessai called back to Kisuke as the door to the lab closed and Tessai looked back to Kita. “Did you need something, Miss Kita.”Kita shook her head with a wide smile. “No just making sure I was not here alone.” She stepped past Tessai. “So where is everyone?”“Miss. Yoruichi took the boys to get you a birthday card. When they were wrapping your gifts they realized they had none. Kisuke, his lab. As you heard.” Tessai chuckled softly as he tossed a dish towel over his shoulder after finishing drying his hands. “And Vacanze and Yorusuke are over at the Kurosaki’s helping set up for tonight.” Kita nodded with a soft sigh. “Can I skip tonight?”“NO!” Kisuke’s voice was heard through the house with her question. Tessai and Kita both laughed as she looked the way of the lab and called back. “I was not asking you.”“Too bad! You got my opinion anyway! Now! Go get cleaned up, visit your man! Get dressed and by then it will be time to go!” The door opened to the lab as footsteps were heard coming their way. “Now go.” Kisuke said appearing around the corner. Kita smiled and bowed slightly to Kisuke. “Yes daddy.” Kisuke playfully lunged forward as Kita squealed and dashed down the hall. “I will make you think daddy. Smartass.” Kita walked down the hall to her room giggling softly as she entered her room getting ready to take a shower. Tossing her work clothes in the hamper she slipped into a short white robe with dark purple roses that adorned one side. She tied the belt as she slid the door to her room open; leaving her room she crossed the hall to the bathroom. She entered, locking the door behind her. Moved

"Afterburn": Coming in after leaving Mr. Faux, Gin set Kita down at the table, softly kissing her forehead he then wondered off to get the needed supplies for cleaning and bandaging her fingers. The house was silent for everyone being in bed since it was so late. She was sure the boys were shaken from the evenings events, just as everyone was, and Kita still could not shake off the feeling that Aizen was still alive. Not after what the Ayakashi, Sada had told them. Ask him yourself...
She drew her hand to her head and cringed inwardly as she quickly lowered her hand back to the table top. She looked at the blood soaked pieces of cloth around her fingertips as she started to pick at them to get them free of her fingers. A few were stuck and would not come free. However, with her picking at them to get them off she gotten the ones that, had, stopped bleeding, to bleeding again. As she looked at her bloody hands a tightness welled up in her chest, as the vision of Gin and Rangiku flashed in her mind. Her eyes started to sting. She was going to start crying, but she fought it back. That was until Gin walked in the room. She looked away from him and when he sat the supplies on the table she snapped at him.
"I can do this. You can just..." she hesitated as a lump caught in her throat. "Go do something else. I can take care of myself."

Gin frowned at her, wondering what was wrong now. Was she still mad because their withholding information or was it something else? The vivid brief moment of Rangiku kissing him like it was their last days on this world flashed past him. Oh. That would be why. Pushing the kiss back into the recesses of his mind along with the first stirrings of lust, he sat down across from Kita. Silence fell between them with Kita still trying to hold her tears back and Gin unsure how to apologize for this.
Finally, he sighed. “I am not leaving you,” he stated in a low voice. His eyes lifted her her bleeding hands and his own clenched. He slowly enfolded one of hers in his, letting the blood fall to his own skin. “Will you please ask Sumi to heal these?” he asked in the same tone. “I don’t need a reminder that I messed up.”
I hate seeing your blood.

Kita hung her head slightly, cringing with a hiss as she submerged her injured fingertips in a shallow bowl of warm soapy water to soak off the bandages of the other hand. "I can't," she bit out a little harder then she expected.
Gin looked at her oddly as she continued, "she won't heal me and I am too emotionally drained to do it myself."
Lowering her head more, her tears falling to the table as she became silent once more. "I don't own you, you can do whatever you want. Its not like I can't take care of me and Sojiro. I did it for eight years."
She pulled her hand slowly from Gin's lifting the other hand from the bowl and submerged the other, again she hissed with a cringe. Her eyes closing tightly as hot tears rolled down her cheeks. She laid her soaked hand to a nearby towel and watched as the blood started to seep from the wounds again. She concentrated on them to at least stop the bleeding as she started to bawl. Her head dropping low her chin resting against her chest.

Gin flinched at her blatant dismissal of him and the pain underneath, hunching in on himself and looking away from her. But called back by her tears. Those tears…. They were worse than the blood. He couldn’t stand it. A moment later, Kita whimpered as he jolted her up from the floor and pulled her back against him. Wrapping one hand around her wrists to keep her from lashing out against him, he sat down again with her in his lap.
“I’ll leave you,” he whispered hoarsely, “if that’s what you want. I will walk away from everyone. But first, let me help with these.” He waited and breathed a sigh of relief when she didn’t fight him, her body stiff in his arms.
It stung. “I didn’t mean to be gone so long, my love.” He reached over for the towel and started to pat her hands dry, speaking as he did so. “Time only existed in my coma when you visited me. The rest…. moved on and on…” He paused. “And then it ended with your lips on mine.”
“I didn’t know what to do when Rangiku jumped me, love. But it wasn’t because I had forgotten you or remembered that I was in love with her.” Her fingers leaped in his own. “I love you, Kita, not her. Not in the same way. She’s my first love, my first friend. But she’s not the one who brought peace and light to my soul - even with all the darkness there.”
He fell silent and continued to work, concentrating to keep his fingers from trembling.

Starting to relax as she sat in his lap, his hands tenderly working at fixing her injuries, Kita leaned back into him. "I don't want you to go anywhere." She said silently as she slowly lifted her head and looked at him.
Finishing wrapping the last finger on her hand he turned and looked at her. She gave him the best smile she could. "I.. it... it just hurt to see you and her like that." She looked quickly away as tears started to pool in her eyes again. "I don't ever want to lose you Gin, but I know... I know that's a crazy thought and wish on my part. I don't own you, you're your own person. I can't keep you somewhere you don't want to be. No matter how much I want you to stay. All I can do is pray you never what to leave us."
She looked back up to him with a weak smile. "I know you did not want to be in that coma for eight years." She rested her bandaged hand to his chest, her head resting to his shoulder. "But it was for the better, right?"

“Was it?” he asked, lifting one hand to her eye and brushing another tear away. “I left you alone for nearly a decade. I missed Soji grow. I saw that with the way he leapt around showing things to others. And I left you with a heart full of cracks.” His arms tightened around her and he ducked his lips into her hair, kissing down over her crown as he went. “How can I make it up to you, dearie? How can I take away your loneliness? The pain you endured yet again for me? The pain that made you made you bleed? I promised I would never hurt you again....."

Kita sat up feeling Gin trembling softly as he touched her. She shook her head slightly. "You don't have to go to great lengths to make up for what happen. Just be there and love us as much as we love you. That's all I ask from you. That's all I ever ask, and in return..." she cupped his cheek and kissed the other as she pulled back she looked into his eyes a new bright smile across her lips.
"We will always be there for you and return that love." She kissed his lips tenderly, holding it until Gin pulled back. "May I ask you a question?"
'Anything," Gin answered immediately, his shaking calming under her touch and soft kiss.
"First off I forgive the kiss. It seems she blindsided you with it." He nodded slowly as she continued, "this is completely off topic, but I know it is swimming around in that head of yours." She looked away from him. She could not believe she was finally going to say this to someone. It had been eight years, her only dismissing it thinking it was just paranoia, but after tonight, she could not dismiss it any longer. She took a deep breath and slowly looked back at him as she spoke.
"Am I being paranoid or did you see it too?"

For a moment, Gin didn’t understand what she was saying but then it clicked. His eyes narrowed to slits and he stiffened against her. “Kita….” he started, “do not blame yourself for doubting or seeing it. And no, you are not alone.” He kissed her wrapped hands, paused and then added. “But I feel like the bastard wanted to be found or he wouldn’t have done what he did tonight.” He looked deep into her deeply fearful eyes. “Take a breath, dearie. He’s stuck as an old man and I am not not. When Kisuke returns, we will all deal with him.”
He grinned “Until then, my love, you are grounded from the park and any other place you have met that slimy son of a bitch. If we need to blindside Sojiro, we will. Think of some commitments to cut into his chess time. Stall any questions. We will explain things to him if we must." He chuckled, eyes gleaming, his reiatsu curling around them both. "His Fox persona is old enough that he could have passed away."

Kita giggled slightly at his grounding her. "Really? You're grounding me?" She giggled again then shook her head. "I will stay away from him if you are having the same feelings. For eight years he has dropped the tiniest of hints. His first was calling me Kitten and excusing it for being hard of hearing. Others were hints of you and how Sojiro looked like you and as he watched him grow how he was like you. All excused with reason's of Kisuke or another told him about you."
Kita then winced like she was in pain, but it was only of flashbacks from comments and things she has told Mr. Faux. Things he had seen thinking she was alone. Like tonight. Kita quickly looked to Gin.
"If he is Aizen. If he really is." She grabbed his kimono front and buried her face in his chest. "He knows things." She shook her head. "Personal things..."

Gin pulled her as close to his body as he could manage, trying to take away her fear by the strength of his presence. “I would be surprised if he didn’t - to be honest with you, my love. But it won’t matter. If Kisuke agrees, we will end him, one way or another. Then, it won’t matter what he has gathered in his wait for revenge.”
Gin fell silent as she nodded against him, relaxing more as he stroked her back.
In his own thoughts, Gin wondered why Aizen had been waiting. Was it only to gather information? Was in anticipation of him being there for the slaughter? Or was it more? Why wait in that shape for eight years?
He kissed Kita’s head as she rocked in his arms.
“Shhhhh… don’t be afraid. You’re stronger now. We can defeat him again.” He paused, considering, and then added. "If you're that worried, I'll ground you to this house, dearie~"

She shook her head. "I know he can't do anything in that form. Not as a human." She looked up at her lover. "But is he trapped in that form? Or is he just waiting? Waiting for the right moment? When is that moment if there is one?" She buried her face in his kimono again, shaking her head. "I won't let him harm Sojiro, Kenji or Evita. I won't let him near them." Her fear turning to rage at the thought of him harming the children.
She lifted up looking into Gin's eyes. "I will kill him before that happens," she said through gritted teeth.
Gin nodded grimly. “You’re not the only one.” He kissed her forehead. "And you won't be alone."

“Of course Mom will never be alone!” Sojiro called out from the doorway. As his parents jolted up at his voice, he rushed into the room and into his mother’s arms, not caring if he knocked his father over in the process. “I am always here.” He snuggled into her arms.
His father chuckled behind him and his mother kissed his forehead. "Good evening, my little man. Care to tell me how long you were hiding behind the door?"
He looked up. “Not long, Mom. Honest. Tessai just set us free. Hime and Strawberry came for Vita, and Kenji was hungry.” Tears pooled in his eyes. “I wanted to see Mom and Dad. Tessai said the Bad Snake missed you but I wanted to see you.”

Kita looked to Sojiro with the name Snake. She cupped his little face and looked into his eyes. She could see he was scared and then she noticed he was even trembling. She figured the 'Snake' was Sada or even Koga. She pulled him into her arms kissing the top of his head as she held him close. Gin moving back up behind her and wrapping his arms around them both.
"I am so sorry you had to see that, sweetie. So sorry." Kita whispered to him.
"I just wanted to see you and dad," he mumbled wrapping his little arms around her torso.
Kita moved her hand and started brushing the hair from his face as Sojiro took hold of her bandaged hand and looked at it.
