It's been a while
Since everyday and everything has felt this right
And now
You turn it all around
And suddenly you're all I need
The reason why
I, I smile
The reason Orihime was always smiling was because of him. Him as in, Kurosaki Ichigo her secret crush ever since she has laid her eyes on him. Every time she was near him, she couldn't help but to smile. Her life before she met him was so complicated and so full of misery. Her brother's death took a major toll on her heart. She felt alone, just a void of space. No one was there for her anymore. She didn't know where or who to turn too that is, until she met him. Ichigo... He had turned her life upside down from that moment on. He was always there, saving and protecting her. He always made her heart skip and butterflies appear in her stomach. She knew that she could always come to him with anything and everything. Knowing he would be there for her always is exactly what she needed and all she would ever need. As long as she had him, she would always smile. And that's why I smile..
You're so beautiful
But that's not why I love you
I'm not sure you know
That the reason I love you is
Being you
Just you
Yea the reason I love you is all that we've been through
And that's why I love you
Ichigo, he always had this sort of look about him. He always seemed... Well, it was hard to explain. He always had this sort of scowl on his face that seemed to scare some people. But to Orihime, she found it absolutely adorable. Plus, the color of his hair. She simply loved it. She had always wanted to run her fingers through it but was too shy to do anything. His eyes, they were the deepest shade of brown she had ever seen. She always seemed to get lost in them in just a glance. Her eyes were always immediately drawn to his and she would simply look away, ashamed for staring. To put it simply, Orihime found Ichigo beautiful in every way and aspect.
But that isn't why she loved him. No, no. The reason she loved him is because of him just being himself. He always had this attitude about him. He was strong-willed and very determined. Very stubborn most would say. But underneath that, he was very kind and gently. Orihime knew that for a fact. He had shown that side of him very rarely, but she had witnessed it once before. It was absolutely breath taking. His smile, it made her heart melt. It was so... Nothing could describe it. It was just different, in a good way of course. Yes, Orihime loved him for him just being himself but she also loved him for all that they've been through. He had been through hell and back to save her. No matter what the cost was, he did it. He saved her on countless occasions and made sure she was perfectly safe. He wouldn't leave her until he knew that she was fine and after some constant reassurance from the healing princess. They had been through so many fights and wars together, bringing them closer. She was thankful for this things but she also wished that there wasn't so much hurt involved in the process. But he would always cheer her up and make her forget the past and keep looking to the future. A future with no worries, no pain, no killing. A future with happiness, love.. Their future... And that's why I love you.
