Hello

Hello!! This is when Orihime says goodbye to Ichigo. I'm okay with the pairing, but I think that Orihime should be with Sado. This scene really made me cry, so I wanted to put it into words.

Orihime crept through the blue curtains, her feet not making a sound as she stepped into the eerily quiet room.

"Th-there were a lot of people I wanted to say goodbye to. Tatsuki-chan, Sado-kun, Ishida-kun, Kuchiki-san." She looked down at the bed in front of her.

Lying on the bed in front of her was her crush. When she saw him laying there her heart was truly crushed.

He lay there motionless, his orange hair had a white bandage running through it; his limbs were bound with the white cloth. And his eyes were closed so different from his normally scowling face. So peaceful, you look so peaceful like this, Kurosaki-kun.

She bent over him, sliding her hand so it was gripping his. They were so close now, she longed for them to be closer. She closed her eyes, the blush around her cheeks deepening. So close now. Close enough to feel his shallow breathing, close enough to feel the heat radiating off of his skin, close enough to kiss. Her whole life since she met Ichigo played in her mind.

Saving her from her brother, fooling around in class, going to Soul Society, seeing his bloodstained face as he fought. All of them were precious memories, because he was in them.

She was so close now, her long, orange hair falling to create a curtain around them both, shielding what she was about to do. She stopped.

Tears dropped onto the sleeping boy's face.

"I'm no good at this. It's the very end and I'm acting like this." More tears fell. She sobbed until she realized what she was doing. She wiped away her tears with her sleeve.

"Kurosaki-kun, there were so many things I wanted to do. I wanted to become a teacher, an astronaut, and a baker. I wanted to go to a lot of doughnut shops and ask for one of everything! I wanted to ask the ice cream man for one of everything too!" She smiled.

"Awww! I wish I had five lives! Then I could have been born in five different towns, eaten five lifetimes of food, and have five different careers…" she paused. "…and…fallen in love with the same person five times." She looked at his still figure. "Thank you, Kurosaki-kun…Sayonara…"

Yeah, I know this sucked. I know I just copied the anime. Sorry, but this scene really made me cry, and I wanted to word it in my own words. Sorry.
