Dedicated to tasteslikemiso, because I love having my ego inflated XD. Go check out miso-chan's poems, they pwn.

Nakama
Tatsuki screamed it at me
begging, pleading, desperate and angry.
I turned my back on her
trying to warn her off (protect her)
I didn't look back
Nakama
Chad stated it as a fact
convincing, serious, calm and unmoving.
I couldn't turn away
wanting to deny it (unable)
I didn't look back
Nakama
Rukia yelled it at me
berating, smiling, worried and certain.
I didn't want to turn away
unable to deny her (regretting -
how stupid could one person get?)
Nakama
I whispered it to myself
wishing I hadn't tried to protect her
glad I had listened (not like I had a choice)
Knowing I had made more wrong decisions
than right ones (but glad there were at least some right ones.)
The word haunts me now
Nakama

Ichigo POV. In the space of about four chapters, three people called him 'nakama,' two of them in the same chapter, and he goes !? at each of them. I think he must be feeling really guilty by now... if he hasn't forgotten already.
