Bleach: Starting as a Vasto Lorde

Chapter 263: Reasons

After a minute or so, Rukia broke the kiss to catch her breath. Strands of silver bridge their lips as she unabashedly gazed at him. The slight flush on her cheeks and her wet eyes gave her an enamored look. She seemed to want more but restrained herself. Truth be told, she’d have kissed him for hours if they were deserted on an island.

Kazuya brushed the bangs from her face and placed a hand against her cheek. “Ru-chan, do you still hate me?”

She nodded. “I hate you… but I like kissing you.”

“Ehhh, do you also hate having sex with me?”

Her cheeks flushed even more at his question. “Not… really.”

“Momo, she hates me but likes kissing me. What should I do?”

The mere mention of Momo made Rukia dizzy.

“Kazuya-kun needs to work harder on earning her affection.”

And she nearly fainted from hearing Momo’s voice right by her side.

Rukia fell into Kazuya’s arms and buried her face, trying to hide herself from the shame and embarrassment of kissing her friend’s lover. What’s more, it wasn’t just any kiss but one of the most intimate kisses of her life.

“I’m not here… I’m not here…”

Momo let out a soft giggle at Rukia’s foolish behavior. “Stop it, Idiot. You already know I don’t mind Kazuya-kun’s relationships.”

She looked genuinely happy for her friend, something Kazuya had honestly expected from her. Despite all her manipulations, she wanted the best for Rukia — and being with him had to be the best choice for Rukia as it was for her.

Rukia slowly turned her head and faced Momo, who had an encouraging smile on her face. “Momo…”

“It’s okay~. You can be completely honest with him like you’re with me. He won’t bite you.”

“Honest…? Uh, Kazuya, I don’t hate you.”

He couldn’t help but chuckle at her adorable little confession. “Thanks for not hating me.”

“Uh… I also wanted to say I-I like you.”

“Thanks for liking—”

She pinched his waist, stopping him from acting like a silly goofball. “No… I should thank you for… everything.”

“So it’s official. We’re a couple now.”

Rukia looked up at him with wide eyes. “I didn’t mean it that way!”

She still harbored some hesitation. After all was said and done, she was someone with lots of insecurities, most of which came from growing as an orphan in Rukongai.

“Oh, silly Rukia. You do know that we can’t kiss without dating each other.”

Her eyes widened even further. “W-We can’t?”

“Of course, we can’t.”

She lowered her head, bumping into his chest and just leaning it there. “Okay…”

“I didn’t hear you.”

“I said it’s okay! I’ll give you the privilege of dating me!”

Grabbing her shoulders, he gently pushed her back and flicked her forehead. His quick movements were barely registered to her senses.

The end-result was a comically delayed yelp.

Her eyes shone with tears as she covered her forehead and gave him a fierce glare. “W-Why?”

“You were getting too cocky.”

She formed a fist and punched his chest. Despite her best efforts, she barely tickled him. “You fiend! What are you made of?!”

“Water, carbon, ammonia, lime, phosphorus, salt, saltpeter, sulfur, fluorine, iron, silicon, and some fifteen other elements.”

“...”

“Momo, Rukia, you’re staying over today. Let’s have lots of sex.”

“But—”

He cupped Rukia’s face and pecked her lips. “The only butt we’ll discuss is yours.”

…

The next morning, Kazuya was lying in bed, snuggled between Rukia and Momo. He had to get up, take a bath, and leave for the. But he felt a tad reluctant to leave the adorable pair.

‘They might be too tired to attend the academy.’

He only took partial blame for their absence. Rukia, who was usually shy about intimacy, became an entirely different person when her horny switch got flipped. Momo was… Momo — filled with passion and love that was second to none. The two had too much energy and chemistry together, yet they couldn’t hold a candle to his innate recovery.

The result was several hours of passionate lovemaking.

‘Oh well, time to get up. Wait a minute. Is that…’

He picked up the familiar Reiatsu of someone who usually wouldn’t be up this early. She approached him at a relaxed walking speed, giving him enough time to hop out of bed and put on some clothes.

Pushing open the window allowed sunlight to stream into the room. The birds chirped as they flew by, bringing with them the scent of a fresh morning. The scenery only got better with the blonde lady walking down the pathway to his door. 

The blonde who used to have short hair but probably the biggest breasts in the 10th Squad.

Rangiku Matsumoto.

After trimming her hair to just below her lower waist, she looked just like how he envisioned her when watching the anime.

{The bimbo!}

“Aren’t we bimbo as well?” asked Tsubasa innocently.

{WE ARE NOT!}

‘Pipe down, you two. It’s six in the morning.’

{As you wish, Beloved.}

“As you wish, Beloved… Father.”

Shaking his head at their antics, he jumped down from the window and intercepted Rangiku outside the door.

Rangiku placed her hand on her hip and gave a casual wave. “Someone’s excited to see the old me.”

Her grin carried too much energy for someone who barely survived a deadly encounter a few days ago. Then again, she must have gotten used to near-death experiences after all this time as a Vice-Captain.

He chuckled. “Can’t let our patient go unattended for too long.”

“Me and a patient? Oh, buzz off. I’ve already recovered to my peak prowess.” She pumped her biceps with a grin. “See these eggs. You think a patient will have that?”

Despite having formal training in swordsmanship and other combat techniques, she had almost no defined muscles.

“Muscles aren’t an indication of good health.” Kazuya shrugged before pointing at her breasts that nearly spilled out of her kimono. “And the only eggs I see here are these.”

She playfully slapped her chest and burst into laughter, her breasts bouncing with each movement. “Gosh, they aren’t egg-shaped… More like inflated water balloons.”

Openly discussing the shape of her breasts was nothing new for Rangiku.

He furrowed his brows. “Well, I can’t say for certain without seeing them with my eyes.”

“Nice try, friend,” she said and tossed her hair back. “How do you like my hair? I downgraded myself to a mortal from a goddess. Couldn’t have everyone bowing down to me all the time.”

“I like that confidence.”

“I could say the same about you,” she said with a cheeky grin, directing her gaze to the window above him. “Momo and Rukia together. I knew those two would end up with you. I feel sad for Isane though… Poor girl really liked you.”

It was probably the first time Rangiku had seen Isane interested in a man. What made her even more regretful was her choice to take a passive approach instead of proactively helping Isane. If she had acted sooner in bringing him together with Isane, she could’ve stopped him from tying knots with Rukia and Momo.

Kazuya revealed a faint smile, completely clueless to Rangiku’s regrets. “I confessed to her yesterday. She isn’t against my relationship with Momo or anyone else for that matter. Such a sweet woman.”

Rangiku raised a brow, clearly skeptical. “You can’t be serious. No, you are serious. What the heck is Isane thinking?”

She couldn’t make sense of Isane’s decision to be with him when he already had Momo and Rukia.

He stretched his arms before letting out a long yawn. “Mhmm. I get where you are coming from. But Isane didn’t think about matters of the heart with her mind.”

Rangiku let out a sigh. “Dammit. I can’t do anything If this is her final decision.”

Still, she was determined to drop by the 4th squad later to make sure Isane wasn’t making a hasty decision.

Kazuya suddenly narrowed his eyes.

‘Someone’s stalking us.’
