Lies beneath the truth

Renya lay back still holding her son at her chest, he was now where he belonged, happy



Ukitake smiled 'thats a start'

Byakuya fixed her something to eat before he returned. HE had scattered rose petals along the tray to make it romantic for her.


Hanae grasped his hand with hers, "What happened?" she asked, rather hesitant too.

Renya smiled at him 'someones in a good mood eh'


'well... the baby survived' Ukitake bit his lip he wasnt sure how she was going to feel

Byakuya chuckled passing her the tray, "I love you"


Hanae winced slightly the child had done nothing wrong, "I don't know what to do.... the child has done nothing wrong...."

Renya held out their son for him to take 'i love you too'



'i'll tell you what we do' Ukitake smiled 'we give him a home, with a loving mother and father'

Byakuya cradled his son in his arms.


Hanae smiled, "Yeah...." she moved and hugged him.

Renya sat up properly to eat, she was still feeling slightly drained, probably from not being on her feet in so long, her anger had really been the only thing keeping her fighting spirit up


Ukitake stroked her hair 'he'll be my son, yeah?'

Byakuya smiled watching her eat as he cradled his son.



Hanae smiled nodding, "He will be yours.... we will need to name him"

Renya was quiet as she looked up at him 'have you eaten?'


Ukitake sat back thinking 'oh we really didnt get enough time to think properly'

Byakuya shook his head "I have not yet" he replied.


Hanae chuckled slightly "Indeed… we shall think of something"

Renya smiled 'share?'



Ukitake was thinking 'im not really sure, we should really see what fits him'

"If your sure" Byakuya smiled kissing her cheek.



Hanae smiled nodding.

Renya nodded 'i cant have you going hungry now can i'



'do you feel up to seeing him?' Ukitake asked

"Of course" Byakuya smiled.


Hanae smiled "I would but I'm a little weak to move"

Renya smiled 'help yourself'


Ukitake picked up her hand 'im asking if you want me to go get him'

Byakuya smiled at her "Maybe I will take the day off work today and spend it with you"



Hanae smiled nodding "If you wouldn't mind"

'with us' Renya smiled pointing at their son


Ukitake leaned over and kissed her head 'i will bring him'

"Perhaps we can take him out... after the meeting of course" Byakuya spoke.



Hanae smiled nodding in response.

'i need to go to the 2nd... i have entrusted Soi Fon with my squad... my legacy' Renya sighed


Ukitake moved to go get the child

"Of course" Byakuya replied.


Hanae waited for him.

Renya smiled 'i suppose i should really clean myself up and get ready then eh'


Ukitake soon returned with the small boy in his arms

Byakuya nodded in response, "Do not worry i will hold Jaden"


Hanae smiled, "He looks so small"

'i'd say for a man with as cold a demeanor as you, youre rather fond of your son arent you' Renya joked as she moved to go in the bath


Ukitake sat right near her holding him all wrapped up in a blanket 'he is'

Byakuya shook his head at her, "Of course not"



Hanae gently touched her son, "He has a mask" she spoke softly looking upon his wrist where the mask had wrapped around his arm.

Renya laughed to herself as she moved into the bathroom



Ukitake nodded 'yes, i was noted... however, there will not be a problem, im sure, it may sometimes be hard for him though'
