"No he couldn't be. Kurosaki-kun is strong he woundn't be defeated so easily" Orihime repeated this words again and again denying the reality. Ishida tried to stop her, but she managed to escape from the prison of his arms. she was sitting on the sand still warm, soaked in his blood. She was crying while she was cleaning his face. "You're such a wimp, Kurosaki-kun. Raise yourself up otherwise you will catch a cold. Kurosaki-kun ? Do you hear me ?"
"Orihime, he's..." he was trying to say to make her to leave his body, but she didn't let him finish the sentence.
"No, he isn't. Kurosaki-kun is right here, he's fine. Aren't you? Please say something to let him now that you're ok. Please Kurosaki-kun..." Her tears were flowing faster and faster and she embraced him harder. "You can not be dead. You promised that you will protect me. Don't let me alone, Kurosaki-kun, don't dare." she was hiting with all her power his chest to make his heart to beat again, but in was in vain. She covered him with her shield, but nothing happened. She placed herself above him and she could see how his gaze was lost, his eyes who where glowing every time when he saw her were covered by the darkness of death. She could feel that her heart was broken again, he couldn't leave so easily. Some of her tears fall on his face and his skin begins to shine. Orihime didn't noticed this, she wanted so much to be able to do something that everything else disappeared. It was just her and her intense desire to bring her Ichigo back. She opened her eyes when she heard his voice. But what happened ? They were not longer in Karakura, they were in a place filled with darkness. But in that moment it didn't matter anything as long as she was with him. She run and she jumped into his arms making him to hit his back against the invisible floor. Ichigo responded to her hug and he caressed tenderly her hair. "Kurosaki-kun, I was so scared, I thought that I lost you."
"Sorry, Inoue. I didn't mean to do that. I was dead for a few moments, until I've heard you yelling my name. I would never let you alone, you know that I will always return to you." Orihime was so glad that he was fine so she stucked her lips to his and he gave him a kiss full of desire. Ichigo responded to her kiss. He was a little amused that he had to die to finally share their first kiss. Their kiss was rather short, but for them is seems that it lasted millions of years. When Ichigo opened his eyes again Orihime was over him, but for this time they were in reality. What did he do to be so lucky as to deserve a girl like her ? Orihime blushed when Ishida shouted her name, but she hidden herself in Ichigo's arms.
"One second ago you were dead and now you revived while you were kissing her. How the hell do you manage ?"
"Tsh... This is my secret and hers. But what is clear is that I'm damn lucky." Said Ichigo was he was looking in Orihime's eyes. "Ishida get lost." Ishida left, seeing that Orihime has nothing to object. Ichigo took her in his arms and he stucked his forehead to hers. "I promise to you that this is the last time you cried of sadness, the next time I will be sure that you will cry of happines, and all the times after that. Because I love you, Orihime. I love you and I will not allow anyone to hurt you, including me. Sorry that you had to wait so much to tell you my really feelings. I'm an idiot."
"Maybe, but you're my idiot and I love you even for this." Ichigo smiled, then he gave her the most sweet kiss in the word. She is a great girl so he will give her all his best.
And they lived happily ever after.
