Past Tense

Captain Hitsugaya hates it when they talk about her in past tense.

By now the whole Goten 13 knows and avoids doing that when he's within earshot.

But when they're alone – when he's not there with her – they still do and he knows. And that drives him crazy.

Lately, he discovered to hate a lot of things.

Aizen Sousuke is one of them.

Sometimes he's not sure about what he hates the most, Aizen or other people talking about Hinamori in past tense.

It's Aizen who should be talked about in past tense, not Momo.

Definitely not Momo.

They are just underestimating her. They don't know her.

Hitsugaya spends most of his time in her room. He stands by her side and holds her cold hand between his own.

When he's forced to leave, Hitsugaya squeezes Hinamori's hand and whispers the words she needs to hear, the words that will bring her back to him.

I believe in you.

She's not a past tense yet.

Even if "it" happened, she'd never be a past tense to him.

Loved it? Hated it?
