The Kuchiki scandal

Nanashi swallowed 'i will not embarrass you' she whispered just trying to calm down


Hitsugaya stroked her cheek 'hey, are you okay? unwell?'

"You never do" Byakuya sighed softly.


"I'm just tired" Karui whispered as she curled up not even realising she could move her legs again.

Nanashi would always try to be proper in public around him, to not embarrass him, to not let anyone be able to say anything about them


Hitsugaya took a step back 'babydoll....'

Byakuya kissed her cheek.


"What?" Karui replied looking over at him.

Nanashi tried to calm herself a little


'... your legs' Hitsugaya smiled watching her had she not realised

Byakuya tried to keep her calm too.


Karui looked down she had just moved them?... "What?" she sat up moving them slightly.

Nanashi gripped him 'thank you.... so much'


Hitsugaya smiled 'you can move baby' he looked so happy

"Its okay" Byakuya shook his head at her he looked at the time, "The meeting is soon... do you feel up for attending?"


Karui touched her legs wincing they hurt but she could move them.

'i... i will' Nanashi closed her eyes she would for him


Hitsugaya moved and kissed her cheek 'something good came out of it'

Byakuya stood up, "Let me fetch you some new clothes..."


Karui could not believe it she moved to the edge of the bed to see if she could walk but when she stood on her feet she fell to the ground too weak to walk yet.

Nanashi nodded 'Byakuya-sama...... i.. i love you'


Hitsugaya moved to help her up 'hold onto my hand and try'

"I love you too" Byakuya spoke softly before he moved to get her clothes.


Karui looked down batting his hand away this just reminded her how useless she was... in Heuco Mundo she was and though she could move her legs she still could not walk without help.

Nanashi looked down at her stomach touching where her baby had been just hours ago


Hitsugaya closed his eyes 'of course theyll be weak, you havent used them for ages' he just wanted to help

Byakuya returned with a kimono, "Here"


Karui looked away from him, "I just want to be alone" she whispered.

Nanashi was still looking down at her stomach sighing softly


Hitsugaya closed his eyes 'please dont push me away, ive tried so hard for you'

Byakuya smiled, "Want help changing?"


Karui kept her gaze averted not saying a thing.

Nanashi moved slightly 'please... its a little tender'


Hitsugaya sighed heavily 'please?'

Byakuya helped her up and slowly started to undress her.


"Please... just go" Karui whispered she could not look him in the eye and say it.

Nanashi appreciated his help


Hitsugaya almost pleaded with her 'dont do this to me'

Byakuya soon had her dressed again, "Let us head off to the meeting"


Karui hugged her knees closing her eyes she did not have the heart to order him away again.

Nanashi nodded and moved very slowly because of how tender it is



'please dont do this to me' Hitsugaya sighed 'can i not hold you'

Byakuya held her hand as he moved.


Karui shook her head.

Nanashi let him help her, he was the only one she would let help her or see her cry


Hitsugaya looked down, all he had wanted was to kiss her and hold her

Byakuya held her hand as they walked.


Karui just stayed where she was.

Nanashi was very thankful for his help 'thank you Byakuya-sama'


Hitsugaya sighed heavily he was so upset
