Renji sat anxiously on the floor of Inoue Orihime's kitchen, grimacing occasionally at the thoughts that kept popping up in his head. Orihime had coaxed him into coming over with the promise of a big surprise when he got there. Thinking only of the beautiful girl he'd come to love, he went, forgetting until she'd already ushered him in that Orihime's "surprises" were usually some of her weird food, most of which consisted of bean paste and several things that should never be paired with bean paste.

Renji uncrossed his legs as he began to feel the numbness crawling into them. What was taking Orihime so long? Usually, when she had him over to try her newest dish, she already had it prepared. He tried to look at it in a good way. Maybe it was something completely different!

'Wishful thinking,' Renji sighed to himself, as he pushed away thoughts of Orihime with that ice cream stuff he really liked, Orihime in lingerie, Orihime pulling him into her bedroom…

Even though her taste was questionable, Renji never minded coming to visit. Ever since Rukia and Ichigo had officially become a couple, the redhead had been spending more and more time with his busty friend. Renji could see how uncomfortable Orihime was having to be around the new couple since he was feeling the same way himself. In the beginning, they had been each other's distraction, a way to not focus on the dull pain throbbing constantly in their hearts.

They soon found they were more that each others distraction, however. They were one another's cure. Soon the pain ended. Orihime's pain was replaced by a fluttering feeling that got stronger every time Renji was around. Renji's was transformed into a warm feeling that never went away. He could even feel it the time Hitsugaya lost his temper and busted out Hyorinmaru after yet another height joke. He thought about Orihime the whole time he was taking a beating.

They were complete, they were happy, and they weren't planning on changing anything soon, even if Renji had to eat his weight in bean paste.


A/N: Sorry, I know it's really short. This is the first fic I wrote (second one I've posted) so I hope it wasn't too horrible. Renji and Orihime are my favorite characters, I love seeing them together! There should be way more Renhime fic! Review if you wish.
