Affection
Editor_ Dark Spider
"It's been hard on you." said Takashi with a gentle tone but the sound of the heavy rain hardly affects his voice from entering her ears since he is holding her from behind and his head is on her shoulder while his mouth is right next to her ear.
"It was nothing since you are back." says Grayfia with a happy smile while a clean line of tears from the happiness of his return drops from her eye before getting washed from the rainwater.
"You don't know how much I wanted to have a final look at you and say my goodbye but… " with a regretful tone, Takashi shook his head before explaining himself with some guilt.
"Yea, back then when I got the news of your death from sister Rangiku it was as if I have lost my breath and the whole world had turned dark and I don't know how I had arrived at the Soul Society but when I stood before your grave that didn't even have your body I was so lost that I didn't know how to live anymore." explained Grayfia about the day she wanted to commit suicide when she had lost everything and every hope from this world.
"If only I knew about the temporal shift of the Underworld then I would never leave you behind." says Takashi with determination as he held her tighter.
"Yes, I should have stopped the 4 Kings instead of lending them a hand but that time I thought if we do that I will not need to wait for you much longer before our reunion." says Grayfia in regret before she continued with a sad tone "but even after the temporal shift had completed and many years had gone by I had never got the news about you even though I wanted to go loom for you and it's not that I didn't but the Shinigami who were guarding the human world's didn't know anyone with your name when I asked them if they can inform me about the whereabouts of Lieutenant Takahashi.
This made me depressed and for a while, I started feeling sad with tbe words of the other Devils who said you never told me your true identity but I never had doubt in you the man I have chosen to love for the rest of my life.
Anyway, I asked the Kings to send a message to the Soul Society and Serafell was also looking for you, so it wasn't hard to send a message to Yamamoto and finally, when I got receive about you from Sister Rangiku who visited the Underworld along with sister Unohana, I got the most unexpected news that I never wanted to hear."
"I am truly sorry to make you go through that experience." Takashi says with a painful complexion as he felt heartache being in the same position as her and he might have gone on a rampage before killing himself in sadness or try to do something to bring her back at any cost.
"When I returned to Kogan it rained just like now and I thought about your abilities which made me feel closer to you as I stayed in Kogan and by the time the rain stopped I remember about the words from Sister Unohana "When a Soul die in the Soul Society they will be born in the human world.
Yes, I had also known about that possibility but never believed in them but that time I felt you will return, no you must return to me and I will wait for you for the rest of my life if it takes for me to find you."
"Yes I had to come back and how can I not come back to you when my beautiful wife is waiting for me." from her confidence even if Takashi is very sad from her suffering however he still couldn't help but smile knowing the woman he loves has so much faith in him but did he has the same amount of faith for her.
"Yes you had to come back, else I would have looked for you in the world beyond the afterlife when I died." said Grayfia as she cleans the tears from her eyes before a sweet smile forms on the corner of her lips.
"Yes, I know you would do that." said Takashi with a chuckle before he moved her body and planted his lips on hers when they closed their eyes and melted in each other's warmth.
"Care to explain why you didn't look for me after your rebirth or even said anything that time at Kuoh when you saw me." after the conclusion of the kiss asks Grayfia with a serious face before shifting her head to the side with a pout face.
"Honestly I was desperate to find you the moment I regained my memories but I wasn't strong enough to look for you and opening a portal isn't something I could do with the little power I had at that time.
However, by the time I regained my abilities I didn't know how to open a portal because that is not something that is taught to the students or the Shinigami of Soul Society.
The only thing we can do is open a door to the human world from Soul Society and the Soul Society to the human world, and that is only with the Key made out of unique energy on our Zanpakuto when we get permission to travel through the Human world.
As my Zanpakuto was only a gift from a subordinate it didn't get the key so I wasn't able to make my way to the Soul Society much less to the underworld where we need special access for an entrance.
As for finding you in Kuoh honestly, I had never even thought of it but the first time I visited the town I already felt your presence but I was afraid of the unknown but I had made up my mind to look for you one last time even if I had to be disappointed." finished Takashi the last sentence after a long sad sigh.
"Wait you had found me even before the game?" says Grayfia in shock not understanding when did he enter Kuoh and she didn't discover him but knowing the strength of her nan she shook her head before asking in surprise "Then why didn't you?"
"I wanted to, believe me, that time I wanted nothing but to meet you and hug you so tightly that I will never be separated from you but I didn't know how to do that after Rias said about your son who is also the son of the Clown.
I felt my world shatter and unknowingly I had used the Divine power that affected the environment and caused heavy rain in all of western Tokyo.
Even if I felt extremely depressed I still went to look for you and there I saw the little boy talking to you although I didn't know what you were discussing with him, I saw you were happy with him.
I don't know what happened when I saw you smiling at him with motherly love. All my disordered feelings stopped as I looked at you, how I wanted to scream your name, call out to you but how can I call you after leaving you so long.
Did I had the right to do so?
I was so guilty and worried for you.
I didn't know what you had gone through in all these years but now that you have discovered something to make you happy, someone to support you and a new family even if it's that clown who am I to get in your happiness.
The only thing that made me satisfied is you are happy and that is all I need because my happiness is in your happiness even if I have to stay away from you for the rest of my life. I was prepared for it." moving her head from the side to look him in the eyes, Takashi explained with a serious face.
"Does it mean you didn't say anything to me and behaved as if you have seen me for the first time because Millicas and Sirzechs were sitting by my side as if we are family?" asks Grayfia in the realization, yes her man can do anything for her and pressing a stone over his heart for her happiness is not something he will hesitate no matter how much pain he has to endure which made her feel guilty and said with watery eyes "It might have been very painful and I had misunderstood you without even explaining things properly.
I am a bad wife."
"No, it was never your fault and I should have had more faith in you so I can meet you the first time I troubled you in Kuoh which could have erased all my misunderstanding before it had even begun." says Takashi with a smile before he cleaned the water in her eyes.
"Husband, you are so good to me." feeling the care and love she had longed for, who knows how long a smile formed on the corner of her lips before she said looking him in the eyes.
"How can I not be when I have an amazing wife like you." says Takashi before they went into another deep kiss and separating from the kiss after a while Grayfia asks "Then how did you know I didn't get married to Sirzechs?"
"Do you remember at the game event I didn't introduce myself with my human name but with my Divine name and to your information I had arrived at the Karakura town that very day after learning how to use my Divine powers from my grandfather.
Using that power I can also open a portal to anywhere as long as I have enough strength and believe me, as a god of wrath, war, and power. I don't lack one thing and that is strength.
There will always be a conflict somewhere in the universe, someone might be angry at someone besides it's not only they that makes me stronger by getting angry but I will also become stronger the more I fight as a god of power.
So utilizing my energy I opened a portal and had a conversation with Rangiku who cleared all my confusion and you know me without a moment wasting in the Soul Society I rushed to you." explained Takashi with a smile while he was cherishing her long silver hair.
"Then I need to thank, sister Rangiku some other time." says Grayfia with satisfaction in her man.
"Yes you can do that anytime you want but I have many things to take care of, so I want you to come with me and so I don't lose you ever again." said Takashi before hugging Grayfia tightly into his arms.
"Does that mean you are also going to introduce me to my parents-in-law?"
