"NO"

Not for the first time this week, or as long as he can remember for that matter, Shuuhei was awakened from the deep depths of a restful sleep.

Sighing softly he looks over at the orange haired beautiful girl sleeping not so peacefully next to him. Silently rapping an arm around Ichigo in the small but always unfilled hope that this time, just maybe, she will sense him with her and he will take away her constant nightmares.

"No... stop... don't"

Closing his eyes tightly to her screams, Shuuhei thinks to himself.. 'why can't i help her...why won't she tell me what's wrong, does she not trust me that much'.. pulling Ichigo in closer to him he resolves to himself to try and ask yet again tomorrow, and tries to get some more sleep. Slowly but surely, despite the whimpering cry's of the woman in his arms and his uncertainty that he will be able to help her yet again he falls asleep.

Half way across town, as the distant terrified cry's reaches Starrks' ears, said cry's reverberate up and down his spine in ways he hasn't felt in centuries, unknowingly he bites down and drinks deeper from to striking young male he had found just hours before.

He looks up releasing his meal unceremoniously letting him fall to the ground. Shining crimson eyes, slowly fade back to their usual grayish blue, alabaster skin shining in the light of the moon a tiny grin slowly gracing his lips,

"I've finally found you...Ichigo" he muses quietly to himself. He leans back on the bed full of pillows, a nagging feeling that he has forgotten something is replaced by the memories of a young woman with striking orange hair and lovely chocolate brown eyes.

"STARRK where the hell are you, you lazy buffoon" a loud voice called from down the hall

"Damn! Lilinette, now i remember what I forgot" Starrk snaps out of his memories only to close his eyes in quiet patience waiting for the little blonde girl/devil a.k.a Lilinette to come barging into the room... "three..two..one"

*BANG*

"AHH... there you are" the little girl runs up to Starrk and bounces on his chest

"You better not be sleeping Starrk and where's my meal...huh" she demands.

Heaving a great sigh Starrk opens his eyes and looks over at the drained body of the young male and groans "sorry Lilinette I got him to share, but unfortunately..." rubbing to back of his neck sheepishly

"WHAAATT? You drained him" she brings her fist down hard on the top of Starrk's head

"Ouch! damn it Liliette that hurt" Starrk groans

"Serves you right baka Starrk" Lilinette growls, turning her head away in a huff.

"I promise i will make it up to you tomorrow alright" he raises his eyebrow gracefully smiling softly at her

"hmph" she gets up off of Starrks chest and heads to the door "fine but you better not forget.. you got that" she yells and slams the door shut behind her.

Sighing heavily Starrk leans back and rests into the many pillows again and closes his eyes and falls asleep dreaming about tangerine hair and brown eyes.

As soon as Ichigo feels Shuuhei relax against her clearly asleep, she opens her eyes slowly and glances at him sadly. She knows full well she should tell Shuuhei what's bothering her the only problem is, she can't remember. Try as she might the images that plague her sleep almost nightly instantly vanish from her mind as soon as she wakes up.

Breathing deeply, she lays in bed trying to remember her dreams and slowly loses track of time. Finally, giving it up to a lost cause, Ichigo cuddles into Shuuhei's embrace and looks at the clock..'it's only 6:58am maybe i can get a bit more sleep'.. closing her eyes once more to only have them open not a second later in horror...

"Oh crap" Ichigo groans and rolls over nudging Shuuhei to try and wake him up

"Mmm" he sighs but remains asleep

Ichigo elbows him a little harder in the ribs "Shuuhei wake up damn it"

"What time is it"

"It's almost 7:00am" Ichigo grumbles

"Shit"

Taking a deep breath he waits for the morning standard...
