Recap!

"Karin-chan!" A voice called she turned to see her twin sister carrying a mixing bowl and mixing whatever was inside it energetically, brown eyes shining, light brown hair dishevelled, her favourite red hairclip struggling to stay in her hair.

"Hey Yuzu. Listen can you do me a favour?" Yuzu nodded. "I need help with my English."

"No problem Karin-chan. You know I will always help you with anything you need. I'll see you after I'm done preparing dessert. Upstairs in an hour." Karin smiled; she could always count on her sister.

Karin looked at her reflection in Yuzu's full length pink princess mirror, her sister had such girly tastes, it made Karin laugh. Karin adjusted her black hair, she would have to cut it soon, it was falling onto her shoulders now, and it was a huge pain. Her onyx eyes scrutinized herself, working for Hitsugaya was bad for her, her skin was getting oily and she had lost weight. She didn't look creepy skinny, not yet at least.

"Karin-chan." Yuzu entered the room, flipping on the over head light and momentarily blinded her twin whose eyes had adjusted to the moonlight that spilled in through the patio doors.

"So why do you need help in English?" Yuzu asked her twin in perfect English. Yuzu had always been a faster learner then Karin.

"Ano....I make an foor-"

"I made a fool," Yuzu corrected.

"I made a fool of myself, in meeting of Hitsugaya."

"I made a fool of myself in Mr. Hitsugaya's meeting." Yuzu smiled patiently.

"Mou Yuzu, I'll never get this."

"Repeat." Yuzu persisted. "I made a fool of myself in Mr. Hitsugaya's meeting."

"I made a food of myself in Mr. Hitsugaya's meeting."

Yuzu snickered, giggled, and finally fell backward off her bed from laughing at Karin.

"What?" Karin snapped. Yuzu sat up and tried to stop laughing.

"Foo-d." She pantomimed holding a bowl and lifting a spoon to her mouth. "Foo-l." She made a silly face.

Karin blushed realizing her mistake.

Toushirou sat in his office, handmade Italian shoes on his desk while he reclined in his desk chair. It had been a long day. He pulled his palm pilot out of his desk drawer, no plans this weekend. Perhaps a trip was in order. He would of course take his favourite assistant. He rolled his eyes; he wished his assistant had been anyone but the moody Kurosaki girl. Had it been her sister, his life would have been so much easier; Yuzu was intelligent, talented, proficient in English and dedicated to her job. Karin was a bumbling ninny compared to her sister. Hitsugaya sat and grumbled about his misfortune while adding a trip to Hawaii into his palm pilot.

He decided he would go out, that would take his mind off it all.

The part of the job Karin hated the most was, waking the 'date'. Well know socialite, and party animal Matsumoto Rangiku was sprawled out on Hitsugaya's bed. Hitsugaya himself had gotten up hours ago; he was in his study designing hostile takeover bids or whatever he did in his spare time.

"Good morning. I have your clothes ready from the dry cleaners; Mr. Hitsugaya has a car waiting outside that will take you anywhere you would like to go."

"Ne?" Matsumoto muttered, groggily looking around.

"Good morning. I have your clothes ready from the dry cleaners; Mr. Hitsugaya has a car waiting outside that will take you anywhere you would like to go." Karin repeated. It was one of the few English phrases she knew well, she had mastered it in fact, with in her first week of employment. Hitsugaya was quiet the playboy it appeared.

It pissed Karin off to have to deal with his leftovers every other morning.

Matsumoto grunted and waved her away. Karin hung Matsumoto's clothes on the back of the door and gave the woman some privacy.

Hitsugaya had migrated from his study to his office, which meant he was in a meeting, Karin sighed, English.

Toushirou was in fact in a meeting, with Hinamori Momo, vice-chair of the Aizen Company, Aizen was a ruthless business man, and he owned one of the only businesses larger then Hyourinmaru, Toushirou had put on the best face for Hinamori.

"I doubt you came here to talk about our childhood exploits." Toushirou chuckled, he and Momo had played together as children, their families had been close friends since before they were born.

"You would be right Hitsugaya-kun. I'm here to discuss" a knock at the door interrupted the petit brunette.

'Karin.' Hitsugaya sighed. "Enter."

Karin walked in looking ever so proper in a navy blue dress suit, as smiled politely.

"I have your coffee here Mr. Hitsugaya, would you like anything Miss Hinamori?"

Toushirou almost spilled his coffee in amazement, not only did Karin look high class, and sophisticated; she had conversed in perfect English. Hinamori declined any refreshment, as she didn't plan on being there long. Karin bowed her head and exited.

"What a nice assistant you have." Momo commented dryly, adjusting her pale blue bun cover. "Now back to the matter at hand. Mr. Aizen has"

Karin walked to the end of the hall, opened the door to the staircase and slumped against the wall, she knew she was ruining her suit and Yuzu would kill her for it, but that was a small matter. She tried to steady her heartbeat and calm her breathing, she had been so nervous. She never got nervous. She had played soccer against high school kids when she was 11 and wasn't at all nervous, she had never been nervous for her high school entrance tests; even meeting Hitsugaya for the first time hadn't made her nervous. Seeing Hinamori Momo in that office had made her so nervous.

I have learned I write best when listening to techno and death metal. I'm a bit weird.

I realize Hitsugaya sleeping with Matsumoto is a little bit ridiculous, but it was a way to bring her into the story and rich guys do that kinda thing all the time, think about it this way, they were both drunk, and the obvious age difference is shrunken to 3 years, making Matsumoto only 21.

Also yay for Momo! I think she's so annoying! She will play a rather large part in this story, and my struggle will be to keep her in character, please help me to do so.

That's a lot of author's notes....... in the next chapter, Ichigo makes his appearance, so does Rukia, Isshin gets mentioned, and we discover why our lovely Karin hasn't punched Toushirou in the face and more!
