Obstruction
Chapter One:
Appall

He had wanted her for some time now, but he couldn't say anything. She was too good for him, she wouldn't waste her time on him. Besides, she had another man in her sights: Urahara Kisuke. It was obvious that the two of them shared some kind of attraction, and it bothered him to know that. He wanted her for himself, he didn't want to see her in Urahara's arms. But then really, if he tried to stop it, what would keep his host from throwing him out onto the street? He had nowhere to go; so his mouth had to stay shut.

But he could still dream, right? He dreamt about her every night. Every night, he would think about what it would be like to hold her, leaving butterfly kisses down the side of her neck, telling her how much he loved her. Oh, the look she would give him! It was always in between surprise and relief. A lovely look on her, indeed. Then she would wrap her arms around him and kiss him passionately, and he would lay her down and make love to her until the first sunrays of the morning touched their naked bodies. That was always how his dreams went, and when he woke up, it became a habit to jump into a shower of cold water.

This morning was no different. Drying his still shivering body with a towel, he quickly dressed and made his way into the kitchen. Jinta and Ururu were already in there, digging through the refrigerator, looking for something that would settle as their breakfast. Jinta emerged with a bowl with its top covered in foil, a wide grin on his face. Most likely, it was something sweet, too sweet to be eating this early. Removing the foil, the bowl's contents were revealed. Banana pudding.

Normally, he would have told the boy to put it back, but something seemed different this morning. Suddenly, he didn't seem to care what the children ate. Actually, he grabbed three smaller bowls from the cabinet behind him and sat down next to the excited kids. Ururu took the smaller bowls from him and filled them with pudding. Distributing them, the trio dug in.

"Ah... I see that a normal breakfast wasn't good enough," Urahara chuckled, strolling into the room. He wasn't wearing his usual attire; he was dressed in a suit. His hair was combed, his face shaved, and it looked like he even showered. "Well, since you aren't eating all the eggs, I guess there's some left for me."

"Y'know, this pudding is amazing!" Jinta told him, swallowing a big mouthful. "Who needs eggs when you have something as good as this?"

"You go on ahead and eat that," Urahara said, shaking his head. He opened the refrigerator and took out the carton of eggs and a jug of milk. "That won't agree with your stomach later."

"I'll deal with it then."

Another chuckle from Urahara and then the sound of eggs cracking against the edge of a skillet. "So, no one's going to ask why I'm so dressed up huh?"

"It's your wardrobe," Renji shrugged, shoveling some more pudding into his bowl. "If you feel like wearing a suit, then who am I to question you?"

"Trust me, I don't wear suits for fun."

"Then tell me... what's the special occasion?"

Reaching behind Renji to open a cabinet, Urahara smiled at him. "I'm going to propose to someone today."

Stopping in mid-chew, the red-haired shinigami stared up at him in surprise. "What?"

Urahara repeated his statement, and closed the cabinet after he pulled out a plate. "I think it's time."

"You mean marriage?"

A nod.

"To who?" Ururu asked, her big dark eyes widened at the thought of her guardian asking someone to marry him. It seemed a little far-fetched to her, but she was happy for him nonetheless.

"Miss Yoruichi."

Renji began to choke on his pudding as Jinta asked, "You mean that lady who comes around to see you sometimes. The strong lady who usually kicks your face off when you say something stupid?"

"Yep, that's her."

"Why would you want to marry her?"

"Because... you're too young to understand."

Throughout the entire conversation, Renji could not believe what he just heard. Urahara was going to ask Yoruichi to marry him? Was he serious? He had to be kidding. Or maybe he wasn't. Either way, Renji was not going to let this happen. But how would he stop it? He figured he had some time before Urahara left to see her, but it wasn't long. He had to come up with something... but what?

------------------------------

"Good luck!" Ururu yelled after Urahara as he left the shop. Renji was hiding out in his room until he left, and now that he was gone, it was time to act. He had come up with a plan, and he was about to put it into action.

"Hey freeloader!" he heard Jinta shout. Sighing, he went out into the hall. He really hated that kid. "Me and Ururu are going to the playground. We'll be back later."

"Fine. Go."

"See ya, freeloader!" Ururu waved as she and Jinta ran off. He wasn't too fond of the girl either.

Going back into his room, he slid open the closet door. Rummaging through his stuff, he couldn't find what he was looking for. Frustrated, he whirled around to face the door, mumbling to himself that he was running out of time. Then he stubbed his toe on the bottom of the bed post. He muffled a curse word, and glared at the offending post. Sometimes beds made him really angry. But they were soft, so he normally forgave them.

A tapping on the door to the shop caught his attention, and wordlessly, he went to open it. Upon sliding the door open, he froze at who was standing there.
