All my friend don't seem to have noticed this change in me. i haven't been the same inside since coming back from Hueco Mundo. I'm not the same Orihime i was. I fell, deeply and i was woken harshly when Ichigo killed the one i had fallen for. No one had realized that, well, i WANTED to stay there! In Hueco Mundo. with him. Ulquiorra. I turn to look out the classroom window so no one can see the tears welling up in my eyes. Just thinking about him shatters my heart again. I thought it was broken past the point of no return when i watched him die and disappear in front of me. ' i never told him I love him.' I realize, which cause me to start silently crying. I stand in my seat and run out the door, ignoring the teacher's calling me back to class. I run and run to the park where i first met him. when i'm there i lay down on the grass and look up to the sky. my time with him was short, but i don't regret a moment. i place a hand on my growing bump, that surprisingly no one has noticed. I know it will be hard to raise this child but i can't even think of giving it up. It's all i have left of Ulquiorra, and i need to have our child to help me remember him. " Ulquiorra, i don't know if you can hear me, but i just want you too know, i truly do love you. and don't worry" i think as i place my other hand on my baby bump." I'll take care of our child. who knows, maybe it will be like you. "

" mom I'm ready to go." my dear little boy says to me just as i finish packing his bento. I look over at him and smile. He looks like a miniature of his father. " mom? are you alright?" he asks. I sigh and look at him and hand him his lunch. " yes kaname, I'm fine. I just can't believe it's your first day of grade 1. your growing up so fast!" He looks at me with those big green eyes that are exactly like his fathers and smiles a small smile. " don't worry mom. i promise that I'll always be here for you to take dad's place." yes, he knows about hollows and shinigami. he knows about what happened and he should. it's part of him. we walk down to the bus stop and wait for the bus to come. "hey mom, what would you be doing right now if dad was still alive?" he asks me causeing my heart to twist. oh, didn't he know i wondered that all the time? that i imagined what it would be like for all of us to be together, to see Ulquiorra everyday, to be able to hold him? " I honestly don't know Kaname, it's hard to imagine the what ifs when someone is completely gone." just then the bus pulled up and Orihime took Kaname into a hug and held him tight. " have a good day alright? i'll be here at the end of the day." kaname then went to go on the bus when he turned and smiled at his mother. " I love you mom." Orihime smiled " i love you too Kaname." she stayed in that spot watching the bus as it pulled away. 'oh Ulquiorra, i wish you could see our son. he is so much like you, not just in his looks, but also in his personality. He loves you even though he never was able to meet you.' I look at my wrist which has the bracelet he gave me when he first came to take me to Hueco Mundo. " I love you Ulquiorra. i always will." the wind blew around her and she could almost hear his voice saying " i love you too."
