Hello again.~ Just a quick one-shot here since I've been into Blood+ lately. Vampires, I know... They're over-done, but I figure I try a little bit at writing about them. I mean I enjoy good vampire story once in a while, even if they are everywhere. Lol. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this story. I do not own Bleach, I just own some parts to the plot of this story. Let me know if you think I should expand upon it, okay? Thanks.

"Have you even heard the whispers, Ulquiorra?" A blonde woman, Tia Halibel, asked in a reprimanding tone towards her black hair counterpart.

"Whispers from nothing but trash, Tia." He replies, saying her name with accented tone as she sighs.

And so he leaves, the both of them leaving but few words exchanged. Ulquiorra walks down the pavement walls and hallways towards his room, only stopping once to glance out the window to the shinning effervescent looking crescent moon.

"Did you hear, did you hear?! Master Ulquiorra has taken a human to his room!"

"A human? Why such a trashy creature and not some beauteous girl like ourselves? That man… Tsk. Tsk."

"How strange… Does Master Ulquiorra not despise humans as he's said?"

"Orihime?" The stoic man with black hair and bright green irises asked as a girl with shiny blue/grey eyes and bright orange hair turned her head to look at him.

"Yes?" She replies, her voice barely over the sound of a whisper.

"Are you sure… That you want this life?" Orihime only ponders his question for a moment before standing and coming towards the dark haired man.

"I'm…" The orange haired girl pauses lightly looking down for a moment before looking back to her lover. "Positive.." She smiles delicately, a gentle and small smile as Ulquiorra looks at her unnervingly before she continues. "It's only been a year, but I do love you…" She clasps his hand in hers. "And I think… That your world isn't that scary anymore. So…-"

"Even so, my love. It wouldn't matter to me if you wanted to stay human." He looks solemnly at her.

"… This is a choice that I have to make if we were to ever want…" She blushes a bit. "To have children.. I don't want them subject to a life in between two worlds."

Ulquiorra smiles a small, quick, and brief smile that one would hardly notice. "Whenever you're ready then." He kisses her forehead and they hold each other in an embrace of a hug.

"Thank you, Ulquiorra…"

"You're welcome, Orihime…"

I hoped you enjoyed this story! Thanks for reading it!
