I'm in love with a criminal

Prolog

Our heart is one of the most mysterious parts of our body. We can't choose the person with what we're going to fall in love, we simply do… But what can you do when you discover that your special someone is a criminal ?

Chapter 1 : " The mysterious orange-haired man "

It was a sunny, almost warm day, despite the coldness of the weather. The snow was shining beautiful on the streets making you to lose your mind in sweet memories for at least a couple of seconds.

An amber haired girl was walking down on the snowy streets smiling at the little kids what were playing in the fluffy snow. They were reminding her about her brother so she decided to make a short visit to her brother's grave. On her way to the cemetery she found a man unconscious, his body temperature was so low that she was afraid if he would stay any longer in the could snow it would be possible for him to die so… she decided to bring him at her apartment.

After she fulfilled her mission she took a close look at the man's face and body. He was in a really bad shape, his body was full with big wounds, his stomach seemed to be shot…

Her heart hurt her seeing the bad shape of the poor being so she cured all his visible wounds. It was a pretty complicated task so there was nothing strange that she eventually felt asleep next to the man's body.

In the morning she was woken up by the screams of pain of the strange man. He was having a nightmare so she decided to wake him as soon as she could. As response for her callings he grabbed her neck and asked her who the hell she is and where the hell he is. The girl needed a few extra seconds to make her voice audible despite his great force.

"I cannot breath." She pleaded and somehow her words made him to understand her fragility, freeing her. She took a big breath massaging her neck area, after what she answered at all of his questions. " My name is Inoue Orihime, and right now you're in my apartment. I found you yesterday, near the cemetery… You were hurt so I decided to help you. You have nothing to worry about, you can stay at my place till you will be good enough. If you want you can use my phone to call your relatives, probably they're worried till death not knowing about you. Um… Do you know at lest your name ?"

The girl final asked seeing no response from the young man. Did she talk nonsense again ? Oh… That could be the reason. But... wait a minute why the stranger is trying to lift himself up ?

"Tsh… So that's what happened. I guess I should thank you at least for your help. You shouldn't worry about me, I'm going to leave as fast as I… Argh…" The man shouted in pain. His stomach wound opened again and a big amount of blood started to flow from the injured zone. The girl went quickly by his side and helped him to sit back in his initial position. The man looked amazed at her, not understanding why would she be so nice with a stranger who a few minutes ago tried to strangle her. 'This girl should be crazy' he was thought. He tried to rise himself again and again but it was hopeless, in the end he would be in the same place and with this girl right by his side.

"Crap… It seems that I would stay here for a while. "He admitted speaking with just half of his mouth. What he hated the most is to be helpless, and right now it was the worst situation. He had things to do and the time was priceless.

The girl looked at him amazed by his determination. His wound probably should hurt him till death, but still… He wouldn't stop till he would reach his goal. His brown eyes were shining so bright that they were mesmerizing her. His face seemed so soft and beautiful, despite all. Right now it was the very first moment when she really looked at him and… he was really hot. The thought that she spent her night all alone with a man like him made her to blush. The little blue man probably would love to nag her, but somehow he didn't say something and that made her to feel even more embarrassed.

His hand shaking her shoulder woke her up from her little fantasy land and made her away about his demanding.

"Hey… Bring me a glass of water till I'm not going to pass out."

"Um… Sure… I will be back right back." She murmured not being sure if she said something or all was in her mind. She fulfilled his wish right away, after what he became more aware of his pain. The worried look on her face was annoying him. How could she care so much? Why would she do so much for him, without knowing him at all. He was a criminal, CRIMINAL, a person who must inspire fear but in her eyes he was just a regular man.

"How are your wounds ? How do you feel ? Can I do something to make you feel better ? Should I call a doctor ?" The girl asked seeing that his body seemed to become weaker with each second what passed.

"Tsh… Don't call any doctor and don't tell anyone that I'm here. Do you got it ? " he said it more as an order, making her to worry even more for him.

"Did I do something wrong ?" She tried to understand his angry behavior.

He looked at her annoyed. How could she not know him after the scandals in the last 2 years about him. He was one of the most wanted men alive and it was even a reward for the person who succeeded to catch him.

"No, it's because I'm a fucking criminal and if the police would know where I am they would send me to jail. Now, did you got it ?"

The girl didn't say something for a while. She analyzed his words, and after a minute or two she laughs shocking him.

"Oh… That was funny, Mr. Stranger. I really did thought that you hate me so… I did believe your words for some seconds. I could not trust the little blue man when he said to me that you're probably a funny guy. I guess is 65-23 point for him."

The criminal didn't know about what should be scared of the most. Should be scared more of her ignorance or about the fact that the little blue man is probably a product of her imagination.

"Tsh… Where are your parents ?" he asked realizing that he should probably be more aware about the persons around her rather than her. The warm smile from her lips died from the coldness of his words.

"I'm living all alone. I know almost nothing about them. My brother told me that they were bad people and that was the reason why did he run with me when I was still a baby. I have no memories about them, but still… I want to meet them once in order to see with my own eyes how they are, maybe they aren't as bad as I was taught, maybe they are nice, maybe we can go out sometimes on a wasabi ice cream or maybe we can drink a coffee with red bean paste. What do you think, Mr. Stranger ? "

"I think that your food is going to kill me before Aizen will."

The girl laughs again feeling happy to have a good talk with him.

"You're so funny. Umm… I don't remember you to tell me your name. What is it ?" Her eyes grow bigger wanting to know more details about the funny person in front of her.

"Tsh… My name is Ichigo and I promise to you that I will leave this place as soon as I can walk away."

" Oh… You're so funny. I'm glad to meet you, Ichigo. Do you want something to eat ?"

" Yeah… Something eatable without wasabi or red beans pasta." He said grumpy.

" Oh… That's a shame. You're going to lose the best part of it." She complained with a sad face.

"I bet I will." He said smirking for the first time. The girl smiled to him feeling happy that they started to know each other.
