A/N:This is my first chapter of my first fanfic! I hope you enjoy it and I know its very short...I have it all planned out so don't worry(:


Orihime stood there in awe. Ulquiorra was disappearing right before her eyes:

Her only love. All the time they had spent together was gone. All the memories

they created, never to be seen again. He held his hand out as he was vanishing.

"Were you afraid?" Ulquiorra asked the trembling woman.

"N-no. I-I wasn't." she said trying to hold back the tears.

She didn't want him to leave her forever. She had never wanted that.

He smiled.

"Don't cry. It doesn't suit you." He said in a gentle voice.

Before completely disappearing he mouthed the words, "Don't worry, my love. I'll return".

Ulquiorra then smiled and vanished.

'What does that mean?' She thought to herself.

Ichigo fell to the floor, his power completely drained.

"ICHIGO!" Orihime yelled.

She ran over to him.

"Soten Kisshun." The orange haired woman said in a quiet voice while hovering over his body.

"Ori..hime...I'm sorry, I didn't know." Ichigo managed to say.

He held a hand up and caressed her cheek. Orihime's eyes widen in shock. Ichigo knew. He knew she loved Ulquiorra, the man he killed.

She smiled painfully.

"It's fine. Don't worry about it. You had to do it." Orihime said holding back the tears.

"Orihime..I love you." He said before passing out in a deep sleep.

'Your too late you baka!' she thought to herself, pain welling up in her heart.

Orihime knew she couldn't love him like she loved Ulquiorra.

At least not anymore...


Days later Ichigo awoke to see Orihime by his side, asleep. He smiled to himself, only to show a sad face while thinking about her crying. He had killed the man she loved.

Ichigo watched her sleeping face. She really was beautiful. The sun glistened against her cheek perfectly. Her hair sprawled across the bed. He wondered how much longer he'd be able towatch over her. She began to moan. That's when he noticed it, a tear sliding down her cheek. What happened next, he never expected.

"Ulquiorra..."She murmured.

He really did cause her pain. What could he do? He knew that she didn't love him, she loved someone else. She finally awoke.

"Hmmm...Ichigo?" she asked while wiping her eyes.

"ICHIGO! YOU'RE OK! I'M RELIEVED!" Orihime shouted while hugging him.

He smiled. Had she stayed up every day healing him?

"Orihime, are you okay?" Ichigo asked in a soft, yet concerned voice.

Orihime soon let go of him. She knew what he was really asking. A serious face had arisen.

"Ichigo." She said while looking at him with an unwavering expression.

He was taken aback at this side of her. Had he really broke her?

"I'm fine so don't worry and get better." Orhime replied in monotone.

Soon she got up and walk towards the door.

"Ichigo, get some sleep." She said while wearing a sad smile before leaving.

Ichigo's eyes were wide open the whole time.

'Oh my god. I really did break her. She snapped. It's my fault.'

What could Ichigo possibly do to make Orihime go back to the way she used to be?


Orihime spent her days in her apartment, locked up in her room. She didn't want to leave or go outside. All she could think about was Ulquiorra. The words he said to her before he vanished.

'Don't worry, my love. I'll return.'

'Would he really come back? How?' That's all she thought about while locked up in her room.

'I can't just sit here and sob all day. I have to be happy, for him.' She thought, clenching her fists with determination.

Even if she had to force a smile on her face, she'd do it for him.

'He won't go back on his word. I know he'll come back!' Orihime thought with a warm smile.

That was the first night she went to sleep without crying.


In order to forget about everything, Orihime decided to take a stroll in the park. Orihime smiled as she admired the flowers and trees. She sat down on the bench and stared up in the sky.

'He's out there somewhere. He'll come back for me.'

Orihime snapped out of thought when she suddenly felt an ominous spiritual pressure appear nearby. She looked up and saw an arrancar in front of her. It was none other than, Loly.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" she said with an evil grin.

She pulled Orihime up by her hair.

"Aizen-sama is in need of your service, but I don't see why he chose you. You're so helpless!" she teased.

'Why me? what does he want?!'

"Hmmm...but I have other ideas." She said with a smirk.

Orihime's eyes widened with shock. The look in Loly's eyes made her feel terrified. She then dragged Orihime across the grass and tossed her on the hard cement floor.

"Ha! Look at you! What can you possibly do?!" Loly shouted victoriously.

She then walked up to Orihime, who was lying helplessly on the floor, and kicked her ribs.

*CRACK*

Her rib broke.

Orihime screamed in pain. It seemed as if nobody could hear her.

sama use you now." She said, a dark desire filling her eyes.

Loly walked around to Orihime's side and smashed her wrist.

*CRACK*

Another broken bone. She heard each and every single bone crack into pieces. How many times would she have to scream in order for her to stop?

Orihime screamed bloody murder. Still no one replied to her plea to help. Tears streamed down her face.

'This is it...' She thought.

"Humans are so weak! Look at you!" she said while giving one last kick to her gut.

Orihime started coughing up blood and wheezing. The pain was unbearable.

"Lol..y.. pl-ease..st-op.." Orihime beseeched.

Loly's eyes were gleaming with anger.

"You bitch. Begging me now isn't goanna help." Loly raised her hand to slap Orihime, but was stopped with another hand.


A/N:Who's hand could that be? MWAHAHA, Until next chapter ;)
