Hitsugaya's ~ POV
Toushirou Hitsugaya, the tenth Division Taicho, sits quietly on a rail in the park over looking Karakura Town...
He is playing with his phone; it has been eleven years since he has been to this spot, even though he has been back and forth to the human world he never returned here…
So many things have happen during the time he has been away….
He has grown from looking like a grade schooler to looking like a man in twenties… he stands 5 feet 11 inches, not as tall as some, but a lot taller than the 4 feet he use to be.
He is a lot more muscular, he looks are not as boyish as they once were, he is still handsome but more mature… his silver hair is cut short, but his teal colored eyes are still the same… no emotion …. Serious … always serious…
He looks up at the sky and asks himself 'why after so many years, has he returned to this spot, a spot he has been avoiding for so many years….'
He looks to the sky saying quietly to himself, 'I know why I came here…to escape from everyone, to escape from Momo….'
She had been nagging him to become involved in a relationship, just thinking about it he shivers as he looks up at the sky…
He had long ago accepted they were nothing more than friends, she was like a sister to him, and he no longer had feelings for her in a romantic way…
He had been trying to tell her that, but she just would not take a hint, then he tried to look at her in a romantic way…..
He even kissed her, and it just did not feel right, something was off…
Something just did not click for him, so he told her ...told her... she would always be his friend …. His sister… not a girlfriend … he did not feel that way…
He broke her heart, and he knew it…
He did not mean too, but it was either her heart or his sanity …
He chose his sanity…
He knew her heart would heal when she eventually found another…
As for him, well one day he believes the woman of his dreams will find him….
Until then he is content just being alone, killing hollows, fighting Aizen, and managing his division…..
In the meantime, today he looks up at the beautiful sky, relaxing and exhaling all his stress away……

A passing glance~ Reader's Pov
Hitsugaya looks up as he hears footsteps approach...
As the footsteps come closer to him he hears a soft voice ….
The voice, 'I am sure ….yes…. I will not change my mind'
Hitsugaya, feeling that he is about to be intruded upon now wears a scowl on his face…
The voice is becoming irritated as it becomes closer…
The voice, 'What… You What…. Don't understand me!!!"
With a scowl planted firmly on Hitsugaya's face he looks up and sees a pair of beautiful dark ebony eyes looking deep into his teal eyes, without thinking he harden the look on his face and turns away …
It is a girl and she is on her blackberry talking, she is momentarily take back by Hitsugaya's presence, as she continues walking by and her conversation…..
Hitsugaya glancing over at the girl who walked pass, chuckles as he overhears her say to the person on the phone, 'What is there you don't understand I am not interested, I don't want to see you again, .….adeus, Au revoir, Adios, Arrivederci, and Sayonara … in other words don't ever call me again'
Hitsugaya is now leaning over watching the girl as she disconnects from her call, flicking her beautiful long black hair off her shoulder, holding her head high, as she continues to walk away, never turning back….
He feels a strange ping in his heart as he watches the girl walk through the park never turning around … walking away…
He notices she has a lovely curves, she is wearing a pair of fitting jeans, her waist is small, her breast are a good size… her hair was black and long, pulled up in a ponytail…but it was her eyes that captured him…
Her eyes had a familiarity to them, but he could not place it…
He stands, with his eyes closed trying to shake the feeling of lust that is slowly taking over him…. Saying, 'Stop looking at her…. Stop looking at her… she is a human ….Stop'
He opens his eyes she is gone, nowhere to be seen, he now stands there looking around….
Shaking his thoughts he goes back to playing with his phone, now wishing for a hollow… something to take his mind off of thinking about and asking himself …..
'Who's that Girl?'
A spot of Tea ~ Reader's Pov
It has been several hours since Hitsugaya encountered that strange girl, his thoughts have returned to trying to relax ….
He is now walking downtown, window shopping … watching the humans walking by…
His emotions are calm as he approaches a traditional tea house…
All the captains come here to have tea and relax…
As he steps in, he just hopes no one is here to aggravate him, he knows Shunsui and Utkiake are somewhere floating around…
He just does not feel like talking to anyone, he just wants to be alone….
As he is seated in a booth, he hears a soft familiar voice, coming from one of the booths farther down….
Voice, 'Well it has been awhile since we spent some time together… yes I know I did say I would try to spent more time here'
Another strange female voice replies, 'Yes and you promised'
The familiar voices says, 'yes I know, but with classes and everything else, I barely have time for me; anyway enough about me tell me how you are doing…'
Hitsugaya sits intrigued hearing the voice, it is so familiar he cannot place it… the fluctuations of the tones in the voice is inviting to him …
It is warm; he again feels a strong ping in his heart as he hears the voice, turn into laughter… the happiness … it is pulling him … the voice is pulling him
He is becoming nervous as the feeling of déjà vu starts to take over him…
Trying to control this curious feeling, His face as a scowl on it, he decides to get up and go to the men's room and wash his hands…
And possibly see who owns this voice...
He must see if the voice belongs to a friend or to an enemy…
With Scowl firmly planted on his face he walks by and glances over ….
Again today his teal eyes are met by beautiful ebony eyes, once again without thinking he hardens his look and turns away continuing to walk into the men's room…
She turns and continues her conversation, like he did not exist….
Toushirou, now stands in the men's room looking at himself in the mirror, on his face is a look of confusion; thinking, 'it is her… the girl in the park '
He takes a hand full of water and splashes his face thinking, 'Who is that girl, I have never seen her before….'
He dries his face, and again looks at himself in the mirror, thinking, 'Why does she have this effect on me, I am standing here nervous … afraid to walk pass her again.'
He shakes himself, softly saying, 'I am the 10th Division Taicho, why I am hiding in the men's room, like a fool… I will talk to his strange human and find out who she is… once I know, everything will be fine... '
Taking a deep breath Hitsugaya, has a look of determination on his face as he walks out of the men's room ready to face the strange beauty that is now starting to haunt his thoughts...
He walks up to her table, and is met with a voice saying, 'Well if it isn't the heartbreaker … Hitsugaya Taicho, come join us'
Hitsugaya's eyes are large with disbelief, he is now face to face with Shunsui and Utkiake…the strange girl is nowhere to be seen, she has once again disappeared...
He wants so badly to find her but he is now being pulled into the booth by Utkiake, who is now saying to Shunsui, 'stop teasing him, you know how sensitive he is about it'
Hitsugaya finds himself sitting have tea with Shunsui and Utkiake, the very two he was trying to avoid, thinking to himself, 'who is that girl'… thinking about how her ebony eyes were looking at him… how her laughter was calling him to her…. Haunting him …..
Utkiake looks at him closely saying, 'Hitsugaya are you alright'
Hitsugaya shakes head from his thoughts as he says, 'What….'
Shunsui looks at him laughing saying, 'you are deep in thought about something, and I have only seen that look on men who are in love'
He looks closer to Hitsugaya saying, 'Are you in love'
Hitsugaya looks at the two men, shaking off his thoughts saying, 'NO… it is nothing… nothing … No Hell No … I am not in love!!!'
The two older men just look at the younger man, laughing saying, 'Calm down, we are just joking!!!'
Running late ~ Reader's POV
It took Hitsugaya, three hours to get away from Shunsui and Ukitake, He now was late he had to meet Ichigo and discuss Momo…
He did not want to go but, she was his Vice captain, and her depress state of mind was a result of his rejection of her…
So Ichigo the 5th Division Taicho wanted to talk about it…
Ichigo, since marrying Rukia had long ago calmed down, at least for the most part; he had become somewhat level headed...
So meeting him and talking about Hinamori was no big deal…
As Hitsugaya walks through town to Urahara's Shoten, he is preoccupied … again… his thoughts on that strange girl…
On his face is that scowl, he is trying hard to figure out why this strange girl's eye are haunting him… why his heart pings when he is near her..
He is so frustrated…
He stop walking, throws his head up, running both of his hands through his hair, he closes his eyes and exhales hard…
As he gathers himself, he looks over and sees the strange girl in front of him quickly crossing to the other side of the street away from him….
The scowl is no longer on his face; on his face now is a look of confusion, he watches her as she rushes to catch a bus…..
He stands there watching her get on the bus and sit, she glances out the window and sees him, their eyes again meet….
She again turns her head, this time she opens a book and starts to read as the bus drives away … drives away from him…
She never turned around to look at him …
He stands there, as the bus disappears around the corner, saying to himself, 'Who's that girl'...

Reader's ~ Pov
Hitsugaya stands there perplexed; he more than anything wants to know who that girl is…
She has haunted him all day…
All day he has pictured her ebony eyes … all day he dreamed of her….
A few minutes ago, standing there he even wondered what it would be like to kiss her…
Hitsugaya shakes the thoughts from his head, as he looks at his watch he says, 'Damn I am really late...'
Two men talking ~ Reader's Pov
As Hitsugaya walks into Urahara's Training room, he is met by Ichigo who looks to have just finished training….
Ichigo stands saying, 'Yo Toushirou'
Hitsugaya hearing his first name used he becomes instantly annoyed as he says, 'That is Hitsugaya Taicho'
Ichigo looks at the younger man and grins, over the years even thought he has gotten bigger and stronger nothing has changed, he was still the youngest Taicho in all of soul society and as a result of this he still had the biggest insecurities …
Ichigo laughs saying, 'whatever, tell me …where have you been...you are two hours late!'
Hitsugaya looks at the man saying, 'Ukitake and Shunsui'
Hearing those two names Ichigo burst into laughter, saying, 'I am surprised you make it, and that you're sober after hanging out with those two... '
Hitsugaya rolls his eye saying, 'we just had tea… at least I just had tea'
As Ichigo starts to talk about Hinamori and her depression, Hitsugaya's mind starts to wonder off again…
He thinking about that strange girl again, this time he start to think about her body, how it looked to be physically fit…
How he wanted so badly to touch her curves….
Seeing that Hitsugaya is not listening Ichigo is now looking at him closely….
Ichigo quietly observes Hitsugaya, as he sits there staring off into space…
Ichigo assesses, that whatever Hitsugaya is thinking about it is not making him afraid, he almost looks like a man … a man in love
Ichigo then says, 'Toushirou'
Hearing Ichigo call his name Hitsugaya quickly blinks, back to reality… saying, 'yes, what is it'
Ichigo sits looking at him saying, 'something as captured your thoughts and it is not Hinamori, what is going on….'
Hitsugaya just stares at the man, he wants to open up to someone about the strange girl who has haunted his thoughts all day, but he can't …. He won't
Hitsugaya sits thinking to himself, 'how will it sound to tell someone that you, the 10th division Taicho, have been obsessing all day about a strange human girl, that you saw for the first time today as she walked the street, and after seeing the girl you did not even say anything to her so you don't even know her name….'
Even as Hitsugaya thinks about it, he starts to feel foolish….
Ichigo watches the young man, he knows something is on his mind, he then grins, thinking he will talk to him about it later, he looks at his watch saying, 'you know what, I have to get out of here before my wife kills me, but we must finish our talk, so please come to my home for dinner, after our meal we can talk'
Hitsugaya looks at the man, it has been a long day, maybe if he returns to his hotel room, (yes he has grown up, he has a hotel room, no more sleeping on roofs, he is the 10th division Taicho) and gets some rest he can start over…
Hitsugaya, stands as he nods with agreement …..
Reader's ~Pov
It has been a long day, Toushirou Hitsugaya went to his hotel room and laid down to rest, but could not he was haunted by that girl… every time he closed his eyes he saw her ebony eyes staring back at him…
Now he stands at Kurosaki Taicho's door with a bottle of wine, trying to clear his mind but he can't …
he still is wondering…..
