Chapter 1: the last day of attending karakura high school

It was a beautiful crisp Wednesday morning as orihime and rukia got ready for school. They got out of bed, took turns on taking a quick shower and changed in to their school uniforms. "I can't believe this is our last day to go karakura" said orihime with a mono tone. She was thrilled that she scored great on the exam but she also knew that she had to leave her school to attend ouran academy.

"I know its scary orihime, but we'll be together. Keeping in mind that we both scored perfectly on that exam. I'm sure that when we leave we'll have a great time to spend with our friends." said rukia sticking by her best friend. It's been about 7 weeks since rukia moved in with orihime so she wouldn't be all alone in her apartment. And everyday she pays her respects to her brother zora. She looked at the calendar and saw that 8 days from now it will be zora's 22nd anniversary. Before they left they went to his shrine and prayed for him.

"Hi big brother, can you believe it? I score perfect on the exam and now today is my last day of attending karakura high school…I'm a bit scared, I'm afraid that they will be even more bullies at that school than when I was child… I know I'm being silly, I-I just don't want to leave. But I'm happy that I'll see my friends and also that rukia is coming with me to ouran academy. I hope to see you soon in the soul society… take care my dearest brother…I love you" said orihime to herself.

Rukia looked at orihime as saw that she had mixed emotions, sure she was happy to score well on that exam. And happy to see her friends when she arrives to school. But she's very heartbroken that her brother died and she had to live her life with out any parents or her brother to guide her along the way. This is why she cares for her friends so much there like a second family to her. With out them she would be so alone and scared, not willing to do anything.

"Hello zora, I'm rukia kuchiki. I'm friends with your younger sister orihime. I know it's been a long time since we last met in your hollowfied state, I hope your trip to the soul society went well. Soon enough you and orihime shall be reunited once again, I know it must be very hard, to worry so much about her and try to keep her safe even though you are not psychically with her. I and our friends have been watching her in your absence. And will continue to do so when we attend ouran academy, no one should ever endure so much pain and lost. I, myself have gone through that road. But I manage to find friends who help me through it. Well we must off, rest in peace zora see you soon" said rukia as she prayed to herself.

As they both got up they grabbed their lunches and walked out the door. As they were walking, they saw ichigo preparing fresh flowers for alittle girl who died recently form a terrible hit and run. "Hi, ichigo good morning!" said orihime trying to put on a smile even though she knew she wanted to cry.

Ichigo looked where he heard the voice and smiled saying "oh, orihime, rukia good morning". "I see your leaving those flowers for that poor little girl who died" said rukia. "Yes, it's the least thing I could do" ichigo said being respectful. "We shall perform a konso right after school is finished" said rukia as if she was the boss.

"Yes, I'm well aware of my duties as a soul reaper" ichigo said. As the three of them were walking to school together they discussed the party that ichigo and the others had prepared for rukia and orihime since it was there last day after all. "So ichigo who's coming to the party?" asked orihime. "Well, we want to be memorable. So renji invited the entire thirteen court guard squads, along with ganju and kukkaku" said ichigo but before he could continue he was cut off by rukia as she said "what? Renji invited all of the thirteen court guard squads? Where exactly is this party going to be held?"

"Well it's going to be held at the south park of karakura town. And yes he did that, the head captain approved his request considering that he's the captain of squad one." Said ichigo continuing giving the details of tonight's event. After the walk they had, they arrive at school where uryuu, Chad, keigo, tatsuki and all of their friends were waiting for them.

"Hi orihime and rukia" they all said together very happy to see their best friends. As they entered the school the only thing they could ever talk about was ouran academy and the party tonight.

"So orihime, you will take pictures of the school right? We really want to see what the elite school is like." Asked keigo. "Yes of course, I'll even take pictures of the classrooms as well" she said with a smile. "Oh my dearest orihime please write to me, I'll miss you so much!" said chizuru tempting to hug and touch orihime's boobs but she fails because tatsuki side kicks her away saying "if you are going to be sympathetic then stop groping her boobs!"

"I can't wait to meet your soul reaper friend's ichigo and rukia" said keigo. "Yeah well don't be all perverted on rangiku unless you wanna get kicked in the balls." Said renji as he walked inside. "Oh c'mon she's a hottie, you mean to tell me you wouldn't tap that renji?" said keigo being very weird. "No, besides I have a girlfriend. I rather much have my pride than be a sick twisted weirdo like you keigo" said renji.

"WHAT? I'M NOT A SICK TWISTED WERIDO!" said keigo protesting. Orihime sits quietly her seat day dreaming, about what ouran academy would be like. As Ms. Ochi walks in to teach today's lesson, "ok, everyone please take your seats and we'll begin" said Ms. Ochi as she watches the students to take their seats she turned to the black board and started writing down the lesson plan.

As ichigo sat next to orihime he saw that she looked worried, he knows that what she's doing is going to befit her so she can live out her dreams to be successful and leave her struggles behind her.

It's been four years since ichigo and orihime have been together. Finally he spoke her "orihime, are you ok?" he asked. Knowing that it was a stupid question, but he knew that she would tell him what's really on her mind when she was ready. Her response was "yes, I'm fine ichigo" she said looking out the window as watched the gentle breeze flowing and as the trees shook as the wind passed by. Then as if it wasn't bad enough that ichigo couldn't comfort her when he wanted to in class three hollows appeared.

As they were approaching the school ichigo and the others knew that they must take action, but they couldn't leave since Ms. Ochi is always keeping an eye on them. But right before they eyes, they saw ikkau, yumichika and rangiku were in the area since they knew that they couldn't afford to get in trouble especially explaining something this crucial to a ordinary teacher about hollows and such.

They the task was being handled rangiku looked and saw that ichigo and the others were in class and held up a thumb up indicating that it was no problem. As they went off orihime still had a worried look on her face. It seemed like she was so focused on about her new school she couldn't even focus in class.

Everyone around orihime could see that she was in deep thought, and they knew that the only way for her to be herself again was for her to have a great time at the party tonight. Once school was finished for the day, everyone proceeded out and headed off in different directions. Whereas orihime and her friends headed off to the park to set up for the party, but orihime decided to go home instead to be alone for awhile.

Everyone knew that she need to be alone but ichigo decided to go over her house with her to comfort her. When orihime arrived at her apartment, she stood in front of the door and said "why did you follow me ichigo? I told you I wanted to be alone". "Be that as it may, I know you want to talk to someone about this matter. So why not let it be me" he said.

"Alright, please come in" she said as she opened the door. As she laid down her stuff on the table, she collapsed to her knees and started to cry. "My dearest hime-nee please tell your ichi-nii what's wrong. I want to help you, please don't shut me out of your life" he said hugging her. "I would never, shut you out of my life…I'm scared that, I would never see you again…we've been together for so long, had so many adventures in the past…I don't want us to end over some stupid school transferring" she said crying.

He had a smile on his face and said "Is that what you're so worried about? You silly girl, I would never break up with you. You mean the world to me, I promise to visit you every chance that I get, and always bring you a token of my love for you. I swear on my life that, I would see you everyday nothing in the world will stop me. I love you with all my heart. Don't you ever forget that." She smiled and turned around to see his face. As he saw the tears rolling down form her face, he wiped it off and kissed her passionately.

As rukia walked inside she saw her best friends and knew that was the reason why orihime was so worried and depressed. "Hey guys, c'mon we got to get going if we want to be at the party on time" she said with a smile. They turned to her direction and smiled as they both got up, orihime and rukia went to their rooms to change, where as ichigo went to the bathroom to change as well since he brought his clothes with him.

Once the three of them were ready, they headed out the door and walked to the park. Right then orihime had her beautiful smile on once again. Because she knew that her love with ichigo is so strong nothing can break it. About two minutes of walking they had arrive to the park to see that everyone was waiting for their guests honor.

"Oh my god orihime and rukia you girls look enchanting" said ichigo's father. As they both smiled they looked and saw the senkaimon gate opening to find out that byakuya, ikkau, ranikgu, kenpatchi and few others had arrive just in time along with all the members for each squad. "Let's get this party started! " everyone screamed out. As they music was playing very loud they all danced the night away.

Ichigo saw that orihime and rukia are having a great time and this is what orihime need to get her mind off of the pressures of her new school. What surprised everyone was that keigo wasn't being his creepy self when he was talking to what was very surprising to see that all the captains, lieutenants, and the members were having a blast it was very special to them because it's not everyday when the head-captain can approve these events. And the most romantic and yet memorable part of the night was when renji and ichigo shared their last kiss with orihime and rukia. Starting tomorrow orihime and rukia start their first year at ouran academy.
