I know that this is probably really late but school has been a killer. I hope this is what you're looking for. I asked a friend who is more knowledgeable of bleach to help me keep Soi fon as in character as possible. I hope you enjoy with what we came up with.

Soi fon finished drying her hair and barely glanced at the calendar on the wall before grunting in annoyance. Soi fon wasn't a fan of the date on the calendar. She didn't particularly hate the date just disliked what it'd bring, annoyance from her lazy lieutenant is what she hated most on this day.

She adjusted her captain's coat and started off to the 2nd division office. Soi fon sat in her chair, glaring at the stack of paperwork before shifting her glare to Marechiyo, her lieutenant who was at his desk sleeping. She turned to glare at the third seat and blinked when she saw Kagetora working diligently at his own stack of papers.

She took a deep breath and started at her stack, hoping to finish half of it before lunch time.

~~~ A While Later ~~~

Kagetora glanced up at his captain and organized the stack of papers, slipping a birthday card with a black cat on it into the stack. He finished gathering up the papers and set them on Soi fon's desk.

"Are these the last of the paperwork?" Soi fon said curtly, not looking up from her paper.

"Yes captain. I also took care of lieutenant Omaedo's paperwork as well. They are in the stack." Kagetora answered swiftly. He watched her relax some and saw the card sticking out the stack as she continued to sign papers at a quick speed.

"Very well. Is there a reason why you are still standing at my desk? Go sit back down." Soi fon glared at him.

He nodded curtly and slipped out the office to give his captain space. Soi fon took a deep breath and pulled the next paper from the stack before staring at the card in confusion. She looked around the office and shook her head, choosing to ignore the card for the time being.

She set the last stack of paperwork to the side and sighed in relief. She ignored Kagetora walking back into the office and flipped the card over to look at it closely.

"What is that Captain?" Kagetora asked, setting a tray down on Soi fon's desk.

"None of your business. What is this?" Soi fon said curtly.

Kagetora sat down Omaedo's lunch beside his arm and sat down at his desk. "Cooked fish and rice. Your usual lunch order."

Soi fon raised an eyebrow and pulled her food closer before opening up the card on the desk. She smiled slightly at the drawn black cat in the card. She hummed softly when she didn't see a name on the card and tapped her fingers as she thought.

"Captain don't you and lieutenant Omaedo have a meeting with Head Captain Yamamoto to attend to?" Kagetora's question joured her from her thoughts. She nodded and stood up from her desk.

"Yes. Just have to wake this idiot up. Lieutenant wake up this instant! I will not be late to a meeting because of you!" Soi fon yelled, slamming her fist down on top of Omaedo's head. Omaedo jumped with a start and shrunk under Soi fon's heated glare. "Kagetora would be a much better lieutenant than you, Omaedo. Get up so we aren't late to the meeting."

Omaedo quickly scrambled up and followed after Soi fon toward the meeting hall. Kagetora hummed softly and straightened up the papers that fell. He glanced at the clock and mumbled, "Captain will probably come back after the meeting so that gives me plenty of time."

~~~ After Meeting ~~~

Soi fon muttered under her breath about her stupid lieutenant and the meeting before dropping into her chair. She eyed the box with holes and sat up when the box started moving. She untied the ribbion and let a ginuen smile spread as a black kitten poked its head over the edge of the box.

Soi fon gently picked the black kitten up and looked around for a tag or card on the box. She hummed and untied the tag from the kitten's neck. She flipped it open and read,

I know you're busy but I saw you watching this little guy. If you wish to know who the sender of the card this morning and of this kitten. Come to our training grounds in the Omnitsukido. I'll be waiting there Soi fon.

Soi fon flipped the card over and hummed softly when she didn't see a name on the tag for the kitten. She held onto the kitten and headed toward the Omnitsukido compound. She gently set the kitten in her home and walked the short distance to the training grounds.

She rested her hand on her sword hilt and looked around the grounds. "Alright I'm here. Going to come out now?"

"I was wondering if you were going to show up or not." Soi fon hear behind her. She quickly turned around and blinked when Kagetora smiled, giving her a mall wave.

"Kagetora, shouldn't you be at the detention unit right now?" Soi fon said curtly, hiding her happiness with her harsh question.

"Just wanted to drop this off as well." Kagetora explained before handing over a small cake. Soi fon felt her cheeks burn when she saw the design of the cake. It was a black cat, the same like her kitten. "I saw that you liked black cats. So hopefully I didn't take it to far."

Kagetora took her hand and lightly kissed her knuckles before disappearing from view. Soi fon blinked and felt her blush deepen before she quickly stomped to her house. She set the cake down and held the kitten close as a smile spread across her face. "Best birthday so far yet."
