Uryu smiled at the flutter of his own heart. He kissed the top of Raelin's head as he ran his fingers through her hair. "I am glad that you are doing better. You had me worried." Uryu wrapped his arms around Raelin. "I have a question for you, Raelin."
She pulled back just enough to look up at him. "You can ask me anything, Ishida-san."
"Are we still keeping our relationship a secret? I'm sure our friends and families would be happy for us."

Raelin smiled again and shook her head. “If you feel it’s safe enough, I see no reason to be quiet anymore. But then,” she blushed slightly and then leaned up to kiss him gently once more, wrapping her arms around his neck, “can I call you Uryu?”

Uryu nodded, placing a kiss on her forehead. "I would like that, Raelin. But, if you are not ready to tell anyone, we don't have to." Uryu cleared his throat. "You are happy with me, aren't you?" He reached to push his glasses along his nose, before realizing they were not there, and poked himself in the eye.

Raelin laughed gently and cupped his cheeks, blowing on the unfortunate eye. She reached over to the side of the pool for his glasses, slipping them back on top his nose, and smiled once more. "I've never been happier, Uryu," she replied. "I just didn't want to get in the way of what you needed to do to heal."

"You most certainly were a help in my healing." Uryu adjusted his glasses, only to take them off again because the lenses were wet. "You were as much a part of my healing, as I was for yours. Now, we're are in a much better place. Together." Uryu chuckled. "Now, to get Ichigo's head out of his ass. And, help him see what he has with Orihime."

Raelin laughed lightly before ducking back under the water and appearing again a few feet away, tossing her glistening hair out of her face. She smiled gently. "Thank you, Uryu." She held out a hand, wordlessly asking him to join her in a long swim.

Uryu swam towards Raelin, trying his best to keep his glasses on his nose. As he drew closer, he laid his hand in hers and pulled her close. "It is getting a bit...cold. Should we go inside?"
Raelin felt her cheeks warm and nodded. "If that is what you want," she murmured. She laughed quietly and pushed his sliding glasses upwards.
Uryu smiled gently. "We don't have to...if you don't want to. We can stay here. As long as you want to, Raelin."

"You're always doing what I want," Raelin said, embracing him again. 'Do you want to stay or go?"
"As long as you are with me, I am fine with wherever you want to go." Uyru pushed his glasses up. "But, perhaps we should go inside. Have some tea."
Raelin nodded, and feeling emboldened, asked quickly. "Do you want to go to a play that I have tickets for?"

Uryu let Raelin go and swam to the edge of the pool. He pulled himself out of the pool and sat on its edge. Pushing his glasses up, he smiled and waved Raelin over. "I would like that, Raelin." He ran his fingers through his hair, sweeping it off his face. As Raelin swam and meet him at the pools edge, he helped her out.
Wrapping a towel around her, Uryu left a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Lets head in." He wrapped his arm around her waist as they walked together towards their apartment.

"Unease; A Tremor in the Balance":
What happens when no one is there to hear a tree fall in the forest? Is there still cracking of timber or twang of branches snapping and spinning off? Or is it silent… but not peaceful? A cosmic breath held just long enough to echo the change and loss. The shift in time.
For now, an angel’s dream cut off, leaving her in the evening twilight of her room.
Raelin sat up, looking outside. One thing that usually woke her. But the tree had not scraped against the window. She’d barely fallen asleep actually. According to her alarm clock, less than an hour had passed. Her hand reached up around her pendant. It lay still, but her heart was vibrating.
Raelin closed her eyes, rising from her bed and pulling on a robe over her thin sleeveless nightgown. She wouldn’t be able to sleep until the tremor had passed. And with what had happened a few days ago…. she didn’t want to be alone.
Wrapping her arms around herself, hesitating for a moment, she padded down the darkened hallway and opened her fiancé’s door.
“Uryu,” she called out, hoping her voice at least remained calm.

Uryu sat on the edge of his bed, rubbing the new scar on his shoulder. Reaching for his glasses on the table beside his bed, he grunted in pain. "Raelin?" he questioned, sliding his glasses on. "What's the matter?"
She sat on the bed with him. "I don't know," she whispered, tone pained. "It could be something as mundane as a life disappearing within the radius, or it could something more ominous. But...." She rubbed her arms, fighting against the chill running through her. "But with Kita gone, the Seraph cut from her, and," she reached out and set a hand on his shoulder by the new scar, "How close I came to losing you, I don't want to bear the uncertainty alone."
Reaching up, Uryu took a hold of Raelin's hand. "You don't have to. I am here. And, I do not intend to leave you." Uryu placed a gentle kiss on her hand. "We will get Kita back. And, she will be reunited with the goddess once more. Urahara will see to it."

Raelin nodded, squeezing their joined hands. “I hope you’re right,” she whispered. As Uryu stroked her hand, she slid closer to him, resting her head on his good shoulder. She closed her eyes, lulled by the comfort forming around her, from the warmth of his body to the breath on her neck. She smiled. “Thank you for letting me wake you.”

Uryu nodded, squeezing Raelin's hand slightly. "You don't have to thank me. I lie awake most of the time. I can sense your restlessness. It makes me worry." Uryu released Raelin's hand and fell onto his back. Lifting his glasses, he rubbed his eyes. "It has made for sleepless nights, as of late."
Yawning, Uryu rolled onto his bad shoulder. He rolled back over, grunting in pain. "Is there anything you can do for the pain?"

Raelin reached out to touch the scar, her wings appearing and hair starting to shimmer as she concentrated. “I’m sorry,” she murmured, pushing the cloth to the side to trace the wound further. “If it wasn’t his poison, it would have healed better after I reattached the arm. But his poison lingers even after my powers reach it.” Falling silent, she continued to pour her powers into the reddening scar, soothing the ache and purifying more of the poison. A few minutes later, Uryu’s breathing deepened.
She leaned forward to kiss the skin, sending a prayer through her powers. “Please heal more deeply this time. To protect this realm.”

Uryu closed his eyes, letting Raelin's power flow through him. He smiled breifly, as she left her kiss. "You should get some rest, Raelin." Lifting the blanket beside him, Uryu nodded to Raelin. "You can have my bed. I will take the sofa."
