"You know, I try. I really do! To act mature and not jealous."
"I have noticed so," Byakuya said, condescendingly and then added, "recently."
"Yeah, but you're not making my life any easier, are ya?"
It was rhetorical so he kept his eyes on Renji hiding his amusement and listened to the ongoing rant.
"With you it's nearly impossible. Everywhere I turn people leer your way. Hanatarou?!" Renji finally asked, a hint of outrage in his voice.
"We were under the mistletoe."
Renji huffed. "Yeah, mistletoe. Don't even get me started on that. Look..."
And Byakuya looked.
"Hard-boiled and short-tempered as I am, you've no idea of the restraints I've to take not to release Zabimaru on anyone that comes within kissing range of you. You going about kissing men around the room... it's not making this any easy on me. Even the freaking Arrancar seem to have more of you than I do!"
Renji deflated, his rant over and looked up at Byakuya, defiantly guilty.
Byakuya gulped and tried to rein his emotions to say, "that was... I'll take that as a... compliment and a reaffirmation of your feelings. "
"And since when do you need reaffirmation?"
Byakuya raised an eyebrow quieting Renji instantly and tried to explain the wicked works of his mind and heart in a way that would sooth Renji and preserve himself.
In a low but hopefully fervent voice he said, "Renji, who have I bedded this last year? Who is it that has me on my knees with a wink of an eye and a crooked smile? If it makes you feel more at ease and secure," and at Renji's reaction Byakuya held up a hand, staying the imminent rebuke, "I will promise you I will not kiss anyone else this evening. Mistletoe or no mistletoe. "
"Ya're awfully forthcomin' this evenin'," Renji noted, his crooked grin proud and cocky.
With one last look at the odd assortment of beings and particularly at the Arrancar-with-Kaien's-face, Byakuya added, "we can leave now. Not much else to see or do here. There is not much sense in dwelling in the past."
Renji seemed only too eager to comply and started moving to the exit, saying "yeah, that'd be good. You could always do that thing you did last year with Senbonzakura."[1]
"I could."
"And then kiss me under the mistletoe."
"Haven't I just promised to you that I wouldn't be kissing anyone else this evening? Mistletoe or no mistletoe."
"That promise wasn't suppose to include me!"
"A promise is a promise."
"ARGH... You and your rules."
