It’s odd to see those two together, even though they’ve been together for nearly a year now. It had been after Ikkaku had been caught cheating on Yumichika that Kenpachi had come in and saved the beauty obsessed 5th seat. It scared the others something fierce and made Yachiru go around squealing about having a step mommy who was so pretty.

Sitting here, I can’t seem to wrap my mind around what a difference a year made. When I left, Yumi and Ikkaku were happily together and planning on getting a place together finally. Then I come back and Yumi isn’t speaking to the 3rd seat while he tries hard to get him to forgive him. Not to mention that it was Iba that Ikkaku cheated on Yumi with.

It was all a cluster fuck in my mind. And it was still odd to see Kenpachi and Yumi walk around with each other.

Though, I do have to say that they do look good together. Yumichika puts a look into Kenpachi’s eyes that that I never thought I would see. He made the bloodthirsty taicho happy. Contentment. It was nice to see, even if it did scare me silly.

I snicker to myself as I lean back and watch as Yumi plays with his small pink haired fukutaicho and step daughter. He’s taken to his position as ‘mommy’ like a duck to water. It’s sweet and the happiness that he shows makes the beautiful man gorgeous, though I won’t ever tell him that. He already has a big ego. I don’t want to feed that ego any more than needed.

I look slightly over and see that Kenpachi is sitting under the porch roof and sipping at his sake that I had gotten him as a congratulations present when he found out his zanpactos name. It such a different name then one that I was expecting, but I suppose it fits him in its own way. I found out from Yumi over a pot of tea when I was catching up with him that Kenpachi’s zanpactos name is Caden. I told him it meant Spirit of Battle in the Welsh language. He preened at that and told Kenpachi the moment we saw him.

Moving from my semi-reclined position, I sit up as I watch Yumichika start to show Yachiru some fighting moves that she will need to know when she finally goes to the academy next year. Yamamoto demands that all Shinigami have some semblance of an education in the basics so that they can do their jobs properly. I smile as Yumi smiles happily down at her after she got it down. Kenpachi yelled something out that was lost on the wind. I can only assume that it was something congratulatory since Yachiru and Yumi are smiling brightly.

I shake my head and shift slightly as I watch the happy family while I wait for my companion to arrive at our meeting point finally.

“Hey, Ichi! Come on! Taicho is waiting for us,” I hear Renji call out behind me even as I feel his energy get closer to me. Turning away from the sight of Kenpachi smiling at Yachiru before stealing a kiss from Yumi, I turn to him and smirk.

“Yeah, yeah, I’m coming,” I tell him before I stand up. Brushing off my pants, I pick up Zangtesu and put him on my back, making sure he was sitting comfortable. Turning to Renji I smirk again and wave a hand. “Lead the way, ya pain.”
“Who ya callin’ a pain?” he growls at me, receiving another smirk from me.

“Who d’ya think?” I ask, watching as he growls knowing we don’t have time for a play spar. Shaking his head, he turns away, towards the direction of the 6th division.

“I’ll get you for that later, berry,” he says over his shoulder before bounding off. I pause for a moment, to look over my shoulder at the happy couple and their sweet child, adopted as she is, and can’t help but feel a pang of jealousy. I want to have that, I realize. Shaking my head, I turn and head off after Renji, my hair moving in the wind that I created as I bounced and ran along the roof tops.

Maybe I could have what Kenpachi and Yumichika have found. Maybe, one day I will have that kind of love.
