AN: Okay you guys, I originally had a very happy, bright authors note going on but then...I got some kind of idiotic review. I have moderated them (not telling you guys where), and I'm here to tell you guys this.
Do you have ANY idea how hard it is to post three times a week? Any idea? It can be a bitch for the simple fact that I have several steps to get to where I am done posting. Let me go over those.
First I have to make sure the chapter is in its own file. Once that's done, I have to set up the above and make sure that everything has been filled out. After I have everything filled out, I have to make sure that the body of the chapter is formatted. After all of that is done, I can start posting! Well, that's not the easy part. I post on four different sites and each site has it's own rules and ways of posting. With Y!Gallery, I have to INDIVIDUALLY TAG each chapter. That takes me anywhere from 4 to 10 minutes.
Then I post on AFF, AO3, and then finally Fanfiction. Net. That is if the chapter doesn't have smut. That can take anywhere from 9 to 30 minutes.
And I do this. Three. Times. A. Week. Okay!? So the next idjit that tells me I should post my finished stories once a day every fucking day will end up on a very nasty replay. *twitches*
For now, enjoy the story.
*~*~*~*
Flopping down onto the couch that still smelled like fabric freshener, Ichigo moaned and rolled his feet with a groan. “I forgot how much fun it is to just walk somewhere without everyone and their mother trying to bother you,” he hummed, before twisting his head to stare at his guardians. “Tell me again why you know Japanese so damn well? Including the slang and all that.”
Ciel smirked and patted him on the head, moving to the desk that had been set up before a window and sat down in the chair. “We’ve had many years to perfect it and years to learn as many languages as we can,” he said, watching as Sado gingerly sat down next to Ichigo before settling back.
“I called the others to come over,” the large half Mexican said, his voice rumbling slightly, making Ichigo hum and nod his head.
“Good to know,” Ichigo sighed, slowly stretching before standing up and moving to where he could hear William making something or another. Probably more coffee before the man went back to his paperwork. “We’re gonna have guests soon,” he warned his partner as he pulled out a tea kettle that looked new, along with a tea set.
“Good to know. These are the friends that have the powers, yes?” William asked, tilting his head to the side as he watched Ichigo prepare the tea. “You have never stopped being good at that,” he chuckled. Ichigo gave him a look before rolling his eyes with an amused look on his face.
“Shush. And yes, these are those friends. I haven’t actually seen them face to face since the school trip that I was on with them,” Ichigo admitted, sighing softly and shrugging one shoulder. He looked over his shoulder as the door bell rang, hearing the quiet footsteps of Sado moving to answer it for him.
William just gave the doorway a dull look. “It is surprising at just how quiet your friend is considering just how big he is,” he stated, remembering the fact that Sado had managed to sneak up on him that morning.
Ichigo chuckled and finished making the tea before putting everything on a tray, winking at his partner and moving to the living room. He luckily had the tray put down before an orange topped blur slammed into him with a cry of ‘Kurosaki-kun’ toppling the both of them onto the ground. Landing with a groan, he patted Orihime’s head with a pained smile.
“Orihime, really, you need to stop jumping people like that. You never know who the person is dating after all,” he teased, wheezing slightly with just how tight the arms around his chest were.
“Oh, yes I suppose I should,” Orihime squeaked as Sado reached down and used her hoodie as a way to pull her off of their friend and set her on her feet. “Thank you, Sado,” she chirped, Ichigo groaning and slowly hauling himself up and off of the floor. He waved at the rest of his friends, smiling slightly at the fact that they had indeed grown up quite a bit as their pictures told him.
Outside of his goatee, Sado hadn’t changed much. He was still bit and strong, dark skinned, haired and eyed, and one of the gentlest giants that Ichigo knew. Mizuiro was slightly taller than Ichigo himself, his hair neatly trimmed and curling around his rather handsome face, the color still a weird mix of blue and black while his eyes were still ever changing. Tatsuki had actually let her hair grow out and she had come into a set of gentle curves that worked on her body seeing as she was still a fighter through and through. Keigo had also grown into a handsome young man, his brown hair falling straight now instead of flipping outwards, making Ichigo sigh softly as Sado patted his back.
“Man, where has the time gone,” he groaned, rubbing at one shoulder that felt like someone had smacked it and smacked it hard.
“You moved so we had to do something in our spare time,” Tatsuki snorted, the tone teasing and gentle. “Though we have missed you. Computers screens aren’t as good as the real thing,” she said, walking over to her friend and hugging him tight, Ichigo returned it with a smile on his lips. He went through each of his friends, greeting them and getting a hug, smacking Keigo when he tried to do more than that, and warning him that his companion wouldn’t like him getting groped by anyone but him.
That bit of news had everyone begging to meet the mysterious boyfriend, with Ichigo protesting that William was far from a boy, so the term was rather juvenile considering who it was. He was still told to gather the Grim Reaper so they could meet him.
Ichigo caved after a few moments of the girls asking him to get him with what he termed ‘deadly kitten eyes’ from the both of them. How Tatsuki had ever learned that he would never quite know, even as he drew William away from his work for a short time, the Grim Reaper giving him an indulgent look as he was smiled at by his partner.
“I am still busy, Ichigo,” he chuckled as he was lead down the stairs by a smiling Ichigo. He chuckled when the younger male just flashed him an amused smile and shook his head.
“We both know that you’ll do anything for me within reason. Well, my friends are demanding that I drag you down from your work to let them meet you,” Ichigo stated, making William chuckle once more.
“And tell me why they aren’t demanding that they meet our resident demons?” he asked, poking Ichigo in the back and getting scowled at for it before they walked into the living room.
“Because we met them already. They came in and left before Ichigo went up to get you,” Tatsuki replied, smirking at the man and running her eyes over him in a thoughtful look. “Damn, Ichigo, you landed a nice one,” she chuckled before sitting on the couch with Orihime, the bubbly red head smiling at William, who was gazing at them with a bored look.
“I didn’t start dating him just because he’s good looking,” Ichigo stated, taking his tea cup from Sado and sitting down on the new love seat with William. “I started dating him because he was nice to me and not once has he tried to push for anything other than what I want.”
“That and I waited until you were technically old enough to consent no matter where we went,” William stated, placing his arm over the back of the couch and playing with a bit of his partner’s hair. “Ciel and Sebastian did ask that of me but I was planning on that fact anyways.”
“So how long have you two been together officially?” Keigo asked, leaning on the back of the couch behind Mizuiro, who was staring at the couple with curious eyes.
“Ah…officially about…six months I believe,” William mused, looking down to Ichigo and getting a nod. “Yes, about six months. But we have been out on dates before and been to various functions and parties together. I was there at his graduation and we both went to a ball that Ciel had to attend about a week and a half before we came here actually.”
“So it sounds as if you have been waiting for a while for him to come of age,” Mizuiro hummed, smiling slightly when William nodded his head. “Good. I’m glad that you were willing to do so. It’s not often that someone is able and willing to wait, no matter the reason or who it is.”
“I had time,” William chuckled before he stood with a smile and a nod. “I must get going though. I do have paperwork to finish off before tonight, unfortunately. I shall leave you to your visit,” he continued before nodding his head at the group and laying a kiss on the corner of Ichigo’s lips before leaving the living room.
Smiling after him, Ichigo turned to his friends, his face smoothing out into something of a serious look as he leant forward to place his tea cup onto the table. “So, tell me about our dear Quincy, Uryuu Ishida.”
“What exactly do you want to know?” Orihime asked, blinking a few times at her friend. They had known that he had grown up, changed in a lot of ways, but to see it with their own two eyes was a little different than seeing it over a computer screen.
“I want to know all that you know about him and then I am hoping to actually meet with him, face to face and without a school desk or a school trip forcing us together,” Ichigo drawled, waving one hand. “A little something that I never told you guys is that my mother wasn’t just a normal, everyday human. She too was a Quincy and had once even saved my father during his time as a Shinigami,” he stated, shrugging one shoulder. “Ciel and Sebastian told me all of this though when I was finally able to ask without breaking down.”
“Why didn’t you ever tell us?” Mizuiro asked, tugging Keigo back down when he went to jump up.
“There are just some things that you can’t talk about over such an open line, demonically enhanced to be supremely protected or not,” Ichigo stated, waving a hand with a smile on his lips. “You just never know who can be listening in on our conversations. At least here, behind these wards, we know that we’re protected,” he chuckled, pointing to a subtly placed and hidden warding seal that Sebastian had created the night before.
Orihime hummed and stood up, staring at the sheer craftsmanship and smiling softly at the fact that it was better than anything she had come across in all of her training and education in the last few years. She had to admit that she would love to learn from the demon who posed as a butler and was taking care of their Ichigo so well.
“So, you want to know about Ishida-san right?” Orihime asked, turning around and smiled brightly as Ichigo smirked and nodded his head. “Alright, so as you know, he is a Quincy…”
