Disclaimer: Bleach not mine.
Ukitake was scared every time he coughed. Each fit made him wonder Is this it? Is this the time I will not stop coughing till I’m dead?
As blood stained the ground, his handkerchief, Shunsui’s shoulder, he wondered if he’d keep coughing until he was just a dry, empty shell.
Unohana poured him medicinal tea and spoke very authoritatively to his third-seaters about how much he needed quiet.
Shunsui’s reiatsu might have been oppressive to other people, which could explain the lack of noise, but it lay warm and strong on Ukitake’s shoulders like a blanket.
Ukitake gathered his strength enough to tilt his head for a warm kiss. Life, even in Soul Society, was too short to spend it all afraid.
