Aki opened her eyes slowly and noticed she was in a bed. She looked around, she was in a room at the squad 4 sickbay. Aki wondered where everyone was at, her back felt tight but not painful like before. Aki heard what sounded like angry whispering comeing from out side of her door. Carefully she got up and made her way to the door, and quietly cracked it open. She heard her brother and Kenpachi having a arguement.

Kenpachi was mad as hell he was seriously considering killing this asshole, "What the fuck do you want tarao?"

Tarao glared at the larger man, "I want you to stop seeing my sister!"

"And why the hell would I do what YOU want?"

"because she deserves better than district 80 trash!"

"Don't you think SHE should be the one to decide this not you." Kenpachi growled quietly he didn't want to wake Aki up.

"I don't give a dam what she thinks your bad for her, all your going to do is cause her pain."

An icy voice came from behind Kenpachi, "I think Tarao you should stay out of mine and Kenpachi's relationship." Kenpachi turned Aki was standing there leaning heavily against the wall, she looked so breakable right now. Her hair was messed up and her skin was pale in a unhealthy way, there were dark shadows under her eyes. Kenpachi went and wrapped his arms carefully around her she looked like she was going to fall down, "You should be in bed." he said quietly. Aki placed her hands against his chest and went after her brother, "Tarao who I choose to love is my concern not yours so but out!" "But Aki he's from district 80!" "So we were from there at one point in time." "You deserve better than someone from district 80!" Aki let her head rest against Kenpachi's chest, it was a good thing he was supporting her weight because she felt so weak right now. "Tarao I know your only concerned about me but I'm going to continue to be with Kenpachi no matter what ANYONE says until I decide otherwise. Now can we finsh this converstaion another time I'm not feeling so good all of a sudden." Kenpachi then scooped her into his arms and walked off for her room, leaving a fuming Tarao behind him.

Once there Kenpachi closed the door and placed her on the prestine white bed and tucked her in, he was going to go sit in a chair at the other side of the room. But Aki grabbed his sleeve, and scooted over on the small bed. kenpachi smiled and got into it with her, the bed was much smaller than his so they had to squeeze onto it. He didn't mind it ment he had to hold her. Aki sighed and cuddled closer to him, she'd missed him over the past couple of days, "I'm sorry" she mummered sleepily. Kenpachi ran his hand up and down her back soothingly, "Don't worry about it and go to sleep." he huffed. Aki was going to but then she felt his hand cup her face and pull her up so he could kiss her. It was a slow kiss and she could feel how scared he'd been from it as well as how much he cared for her. "I love you," he said against her lips. Aki sighed contently, "I love you too." He put her head back down agaisnt his chest, "Now go to sleep dammit." He growled. Aki smiled she knew he was embarassed but to keep his manly pride in tact he wouldn't show it. She fell asleep listening to his steady breathing and his strong heart beat.

much later

Aki was out of the squad 4 infirmary,a and her and Kenpachi were closer than ever. Ikkaku and Kaicho were aslo a couple of love birds as well as Yoshe and a certain captain of squad 13. (I'm not going to put much about Yoshe and Ukitake in this story.) The two year period was coming to a close, the Head Captain was impressed with there work and was now worrking to put Aki's plan in action. Captain Unohana gave the girls the option to either move to a differnet squad stay in squad 11 of go back to 4th. Kaicho and Aki stayed in squad 11 while they made Yoshe transfer to squad 13.

Aki was sitting at the window in hers and Kenpachi's room looking out at the night sky, she'd added some homey touches to it. Such as a rug and some pictures to the walls and a vase of flowers. She'd had a very eventful day, Kaicho had told Aki that she was pregnant with Ikkaku's child. After an hour of laughing crying and giving Kaicho hell for not remembering to use birth control. Aki got another little surprise and this one had her heart squeezeing at the memory. She and Yachiru had been walking around together and Yachiru asked "Can I call you Mommy instead of Pretty?" Aki had felt her heard do a little dance in her chest, and she'd almost cried whe she'd told Yachiru yes. Yachiru squealed and hugged her calling her Mommy.

So now Aki was on a high and not much could bring her down right now. Then she smiled as she felt hands wrap around her from behind, Aki looked up at Kenpachi. He leaned down and kissed her, "Marry me beautiful." he whispered. Aki snapped her eyes open and looked at him, he was serious. Aki nodded and felt tears fill her eyes, "yes."

Aki thanked that dandelion from the field that she'd wished upon as she kissed Kenpachi passionatly.
