The Pain of having a heart (Sosuke Aizen x reader) [Wattys 2016]

Seventeenth Act, Tea for your thoughts

(A/N: Aizen drinking tea. Isn't it such a fitting picture? Not to mention he still retains his handsomeness...Now go and enjoy this chapter :) )

He finally let go, the warmth of his lips slowly fading away. I hate to admit it, but I wanted it to stay. It was the most mysterious yet really beautiful experience I've ever had.

There was a strange look in his eyes, as if he didn't expect enjoying such a kiss like this too.

For a moment, we stared at each other as we slowly regained our senses. A small smile crept out of Aizen's lips.

I can't help but smile too. He looks so weirdly adorable and surprisingly handsome at the same time, with those goofy bandages wrapped around his head and that little smile on his lips.

He reached for my face, then tucked some of my locks behind my ear. I pouted a little. "Aizen, I like having bangs hanging over my face. It makes me look more-"

He chuckled and placed a finger over my lips. "I know, I know....you look beautiful in every way possible."

I blushed at his compliment. Okay, I'm not used to these kind of things. I just stared at him with pink cheeks and a dumbfounded look in my eyes.

A chill suddenly ran through me. Ugh, it's pretty cold. But then Aizen wrapped the sheets around me.

"How's this? Are you feeling warm now?" He asked.

I gave him a little nod and tightened the wrap of the blankets that were around me. He started to pour some tea in a cup that was on his bedside table.

Placing the edge of the cup on my lips, he tilted it so the warm brown liquid flowed in. "Drink up. It'll make you feel better."

Honestly, I was kind of enjoying my time with Aizen. He was being pretty nice. (or trying to be romantic, which I find cute and...a creep's act.)

He let me drink some more tea until it got too bitter for me and I shook my head at the next sip. But then he handed the cup to me.

"Why not try it with me?" He asked.

I blushed a little. "O-Okay then...but don't blame me if it spills, creep!"

I tried to put the edge of the cup on his lips just like what he did and tilted it, but he wasn't quite ready yet so I spilled tea on his clothes.

"See, I told you that it would spill! Now your clothes are stained!" I hissed, trying to look for something that I could use to clean his robe.

He chuckled and put a hand over mine. "That's quite alright. Why don't you try again?"

I sighed in frustration and tried to let him sip again, when it spilled. I saved Aizen's clothes by catching the really hot liquid with my hand, which was probably not such a good idea.

"OWWWWWW!" I yelled, almost dropping the cup.

He took the cup from me and set it down on his bedside table. "Let me see."

I shakily gave him my hand, and I felt jitters jump all over me when our hands made contact with each other.

He held it and looked at it for a while, before hopping off the bed. "Come. You have to put that under running water."
