well, here is part one featuring Byakuya!

DISCLAIMER: I don't own Bleach or any of it's characters.

There she sat, alone in a dark room. Tonight was the annual Shinigami Fall Ball. She was sure everybody was out there, dancing and having a good time. It has only been 2 months since the death of the 13th division lieutenant Kaien Shiba. As his replacement, Abbey felt out of place. Her captain, Jushiro Ukitake, has always greeted her with open arms, but she always felt as if he wished she was the one who was dead and not Kaien.

Abbey sat there with her head resting on her knees. She has already kicked off her painful high heels. With tears streaming down her pale face, she began to ask herself questions.

“Why can't I be happy?” She asked herself aloud. “I mean, I’m a lieutenant now. I have a great captain. I look beautiful. Well I better, I practically starved myself to fit into this dress,” She looked down and grasped the creased material on the big skirt of her dark blood red strapless ballroom gown.

“Well you should eat something then,” An unfamiliar voice told her. She wiped her eyes and looked up to see 6th division captain Byakuya Kuchiki standing in front of her, holding out a small plate of fruit.

“Thank you Captain Kuchiki,” Abbey said, taking the plate and setting it next to her.

“You’re Abbey Hyuga, the new 13th division lieutenant, am I right?” Byakuya smiled.

“You are correct Captain Kuchiki. Please call me Abbey,” she replied, forcing a weak smile upon her face. Byakuya sat down next to her.

“You really should eat something ,” Byakuya said, breaking the silence after a few minutes. “I’d really hate for something to happen to you!” he put his hand on her shoulder lovingly. Abbey looked deep into his onyx eyes with her chocolate ones. She tried to hold back her tears, but she just couldn’t. She turned her head away as the tears poured down her face.

At the moment, something happened that Abbey never would’ve dreamed of. Byakuya pulled her into a warm embrace. She buried her head into his shoulder crying her eyes out. He put his arms on her legs and pulled her closer to him. He wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his head on hers. Byakuya started to stroke Abbey’s hair lightly, trying to comfort her.

After a while when they both fell from that close position and her head was resting on his shoulder, another unexpected thing happened. Byakuya put Abbey’s chin between his left thumb and index finger, turned her head towards him, and wiped away a stray tear with his free hand.

“Please don’t cry anymore. I hate seeing you sad. It makes me want to die,” he said with so much emotion. Before Abbey got a chance to respond, Byakuya pulled her into a passionate kiss. At first she was shocked, but eventually closed her eyes and kissed him back. He once again wrapped his arms around her after her hands found their way to his chest.

For once in her life, Abbey didn’t feel lonely or out of place. She felt loved, an emotion she hadn’t seen in a long time.

Hope you all enjoyed it!
