Love Me Bitterly, Loathe Me Sweetly – Chap. 20A – ALTERNATE VERSION/ENDING
A/N: STOP! Do not read unless you have already finished the first 19 chapters of Love Me Bitterly, Loathe Me Sweetly.
This is NOT a standalone story, but the alternate ending to the above tale. Even if you have already read it, you might want to re-read chapter 19 of Love Me Bitterly to refresh yourself on the contents of that chapter, because this story contains a number of references to chapter 19.
This is the alternate version of chapter 20 of Love Me Bitterly, Loathe Me Sweetly, with a happy ending for Orihime and Aizen (as well as others in the story). This chapter replaces chapters 20 and 21 of the original story, and is the final chapter of the alternate storyline, which does not correspond with the story in Triangle of Immortality. This chapter is intended to be read after chapter 19 of the original story.
If you have already read chapters 20 and 21 of the original story, you'll notice some familiar scenes in this chapter. I'd recommend that you not skip any parts of this chapter, because there are subtle differences in phrasing throughout the text, to convey a different mood here. So even if a scene seems familiar, it will likely have a different slant on it. Anyway, I hope you enjoy!
Warning: Do not read further if you were pleased with the original ending of the story in chapter 21! This chapter contains OOC Aizen, sweetness and romance… you have been warned. ;)
