Rukia closed her eyes and happily hummed to herself as she looked absent mindedly at the board.
She loved sitting in the back of the class were the teachers lectures couldn't reach her ears but loved it even more whenever she was able to sit near the window so she could look out and day dream about winged dinosaurs, magical giraffes, and adventures of going into different realms.
Even though she was only one desk away from the window she would casually look out from time to time and become absorbed in her imagination.
The only bad thing is that a certain someone was sitting near the window and whenever he would catch her looking outside of the window (which was practically every day) and throw a pencil or kick her desk to snap her out of her world.
His name is Ichigo Kurosaki. He stood out by his orange hair, fiery but soft amber eyes, and handsome features that is completed by a perminate scowl.
Right know Ichigo was finding hard to concentrate on the subject that Ms. Ochi was teaching.
"Hey, midget stop your stupid humming!" Ichigo growled at the petite raven haired girl.
Rukia opened one big violet eye and then closed it and continued her humming.
Rukia was thinking of what to get for her sister, Hisana, for her birthday.
She wanted it to be special after all Hisana was always working hard to help give Rukia a good life even though she's very sick she went through thick and thin to get anything for her darling sister.
Rukia stopped humming and gave out a small sad sigh.
"It's all my fault," Rukia whispered sadly.
She looked outside the window and saw that the sakura tree's were in fool bloom.
It just made Rukia feel even worse.
Ichigo was about to kick Rukia's desk when he noticed that she stopped humming.
His eyes became worried and his scowl softened when he saw the sad look in her eyes.
"Hey," Ichigo said softly, "I'm sure she'll leave the clinic before her birthday."
"Yeah," Rukia whispered and then let out a sigh, "but her birthday it tomorrow and she hasn't gotten any better."
"Well my dad will let her go out for her birthday," Ichigo said to help Rukia feel a little bit better and it did a small parted her lips and her eyes began to shine.
"Yeah," Rukia said and looked at Ichigo, "can I walk with you today?
Ichigo turns his head towards the window to hide his blushing face.
"Why the hell would I care?" Ichigo scowled.
"Just asking," Rukia snapped and stared to doodle chappy on her notes.
When school ended Ichigo waited for Rukia at the school gates both of them not saying a word as they walked to Ichigo's house/clinic mostly because Rukia was depressed about Hisana being in the hospital because of her and Ichigo couldn't think of anything to make Rukia feel better.
"Hey Yuzu I'm-" "ICHIGO!" Ichigo blocks a kick from his insane father and elbows his father in the face making him fly across the room and crashed into to wall.
"G-g-good j-j-job son," Isshin says weakly and gives Ichigo a shaky thumbs up.
"Hello, Mr. Kurosaki," Rukia says as she kneels beside him.
"Hello Rukia!" Isshin jumps excitedly and gives her a big bear hug, "and how many time's have I told you not to call me that call me Isshin!"
"O-o-o-okay, I-I-Isshin, l-l-let g-go pl-please," Rukia said while trying to gasp for air.
"She said let go you pervert!" Ichigo yelled and kicked his father in the back causing him to let go of Rukia and dropping her with a loud thud.
"Ow that hurt you stupid Strawberry!" Rukia yelled while rubbing her head.
"Why are you yelling at me for?!" Ichigo yelled and pointed at his dad.
"He's the one you should be yelling at not me!"
"Well if you didn't kick him he wouldn't have dropped me!"
"Did you like being crushed?!"
"No, but you could of done something better than kick him!"
"Fighting again?" Karin asked her dad as she walked into the living room.
"Just a lover's quarrel," Isshin laughed and looked at the odd pair arguing.
"Should I get Ms. Sakura?" Karin asked.
"Yes, I think it while make Rukia feel better to see her out bed," Isshin replied
"Where's Yuzu?" Karin asks before leaving the kitchen.
"With Hisana of course," Isshin says in duh are you stupid tone, "you know how she likes to hang out with her."
"Yeah, yeah," Karin says.
The first thing that Hisana saw when she entered the living room was her sister throwing a lamp at Ichigo who dodged it and hit the wall with a loud crash.
"WHAT THE HELL RUKIA!" Ichigo yells to the top of his lungs.
Rukia didn't respond she just looked at the lamp with big eyes surprised that it broke.
"Ummm… Rukia?" Hisana said softly to her sister.
Rukia eyes widen with glee when she saw her sister and a big smile crept across her face.
"Hisana!" Rukia screamed in excitement and ran to her sister and carefully hugged her.
"Hisana, I missed you!" Rukia buries her face into her sisters chest so nobody could see the tears of happiness and sadness of finally seeing her beloved sister out of the hospital bed.
Hisana eyes become soft and sad.
"I know it must be very lonely and scary being by your self," Hisana said sadly and tried to hold back the tears that were forming in her eyes but some were able to escape and slowly slide down her pale face.
Isshin couldn't help but want to help them. Hisana and Rukia had no family it was only the two of them and they both worked hard to pay for the house and the hospital bills. They both blame them selves for each others suffering.
Isshin let out a small heartfelt sigh and rubbed his neck.
"Hey, Rukia, you could spend the night here today," Issin smiled a big goofy grin.
