Mine.

A love story about how a clumsy little girl tamed the beast within an angry, orphaned serving boy.

Nnoitra x Amarie (OC).

Nnoitra Jiruga belongs to Tite Kubo. Amarie belongs to me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Chapter One: Introductions

It's kinda funny, looking back now. She was the dumbest, biggest pain in the ass girl I ever met, and yet she's the reason I'm here. The reason any of this even happened is all because of her. Do you hear me Amarie? This is all your fault. I hope you're good and happy now.....wherever the hell you are.

Oh yeah....if you're wondering why some freakishly tall, scrawny teenage boy with greasy black hair and an eye patch is standing on the edge of this bridge, waiting to jump, I'll let you in on a little secret. It's all her fault. I wasn't always suicidal. Hell, I never gave a damn about anyone other then myself. Until I met her of course. Then she had to go and be all nice and kind, and just....be her and change my ways. Now I'm about to jump for her. Isn't it just fucking fantastic?

Let's go back to the beginning. My name is Nnoitra Jiruga, and I'm an orphan. Big deal. You could say I have anger management issues. Anyway, my dead beat parents kicked me out when I was 15 and sent me to live in the monastery for awhile. That sure as hell didn't work out. When I was 17 I went to work at the Oderschvank Manor as a serving boy. That's where I met the two women who would change my life. And not in some happy, bubbly lovey dovey sort of way. I don't deal with that crap. No, I mean in a painful, annoying rip your eyes out kind of way. The first was Nelliel. She was 17 and beautiful...and she pissed me off to no end. The second was her little sister Amarie. She was 16 and a total klutz. I remember my first day at that God forsaken place.......

Apparently the stable boy got fired, and that was to become one of my many jobs around the manor. I was so thrilled that I got to deal with a bunch of smelly prissy horses until they hired a new stable boy. I hated horses; they stank and slobbered all over the place. It was early afternoon and I had just gotten chewed out by Nell for being to slow at saddling her horse when I decided it was time for a lunch break. Just as I was rounding the corner to the kitchen, WHAM! I felt the breath knock right out of me and I fell to the floor.

"What the hell, watch where you're going you idiot!" I snarled, getting up.

It pissed me off even more to see a scrawny girl sprawled out on the floor. If it had been a boy, I could have kicked his ass.

"I-I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you ok? D-did I hurt you?" She squeaked.

"Of course you didn't hurt me you idiot. What, you think being knocked over by some scrawny stick like you is going to hurt girl? "I grumbled and leered down at her.

She shrank back and got up as well, trying to straighten out her skirts.

"I'm s-sorry. My name is Amarie, but you can call me Ami. What's your name?"

"What the hell kind of introduction is that!? You knock me on my ass and then want to be my friend?" I turned away from her and continued on my way to the kitchen for my lunch.

To my annoyance, she followed and sat down right next to me.

"I really am sorry, I was in a hurry to get outside before Nell, but I guess she's already out there riding, so I'll have to wait until she's done."

"And why would you have to wait? You all have a big enough riding field. I would know, I have to maintain it." I grumbled. The field was ridiculously large.

"Oh, then you must be the new stable boy!" She exclaimed excitedly.

"Way to go Sherlock." I mumbled sarcastically. "That still doesn't answer my question, and anyway, I'm only filling in. I can't stand horses."

"Oh...well Nell doesn't like it when I ride with her because she say's I make her nervous on my horse. I'm a really good rider, but Nell is a novice. It's the only thing that I'm better at then her."

"I didn't ask for your life story, I just asked a question." I picked up my lunch and started walking back to the stables to eat in peace.

"Wait, you didn't tell me your name!" She wailed.

Like my name was oh so bloody important.

"Nnoitra. Now leave me alone."

"It was nice meeting you Nnoitra, and I'm sorry for knocking you down, I'll be more careful!"

I just rolled my eyes and went back to the stables. I had only known her for maybe five minutes and already she pissed me off. Her voice was too squeaky and she fidgeted too much.
