Mini Love, Chapter 1

Running down the halls of the high school in Karakura town was a young girl; her orange hair bouncing along with her every step. When she finally reached her classroom, she stopped and slid the door open.

"Orihime!"

The girl looked up when she heard her name and found her best friend coming towards her. Her friend, Tatsuki, was wearing the standard uniform for their school. She was wearing a gray jacket with the same color skirt and a red bow on top of the white blouse under the jacket. When Tatsuki came up to her, Orihime rubbed her head sheepishly.

"Heh-heh. Sorry I'm late Tatsuki but I had some trouble with making breakfast this morning," Orihime said.

"Geez, Orihime, what'd you do? Burn your kitchen?" asked her friend.

"Well…"

Tatsuki sighed. "What am I going to do with you? If you're not burning down kitchens you're making some weird concoction in them."

Orihime laughed at her friend's worry. If Tatsuki was worried about a little kitchen fire then she would have a heart attack knowing Orihime had a little demon living with her. Orihime still remembered what happened not more than twenty minutes ago.

"Oh come on, Ulquiorra, it's not that bad."

Orihime only got a glare in response. The former espada that used to be taller than her was now about eight inches tall. He was in his release form because he transformed that way before he turned tiny. Orihime was guided to the laboratory after the transformation was complete and heard fighting before she was allowed in. She saw the great Ulquiorra himself with tiny little horns and wings floating in the air yelling at Kurotsuchi.

"Change me back you worthless shinigami!"

"Like I said a million times already, I can't! You shouldn't have transformed into that form before we transformed you!"

"And I told you that I refuse to be in this form any longer."

Orihime couldn't decide whether to laugh or say 'awww' at the scene. He was too cute! She didn't expect him to be this small. She knew the punishment for him but was just glad that he was alive. After some more fighting between the captain and angry demon, Orihime stepped in and calmed them down. It turns out that they really couldn't change him back until he learned to care for people. After some more bickering, mostly on Ulquiorra's part, Orihime was sent back home with her new roommate. And then morning came with Ulquiorra pouting.

"How is this not bad, woman?! I'm forever humiliated with this tiny stature and I have to stay in this horrible town as well."

"It's not forever Ulquiorra, it's just until you learn compassion."

He scoffed and floated up to a nearby windowsill. He turned his body so she couldn't see his black streaked face anymore. His folded his wings around his form and stayed silent.

"Oh, Ulquiorra, don't be like that."

Silence.

"Come on, stop pouting."

"…"

"I promise that I'll help you so please stop pouting."

Ulquiorra turned around at that and stared at her to continue.

"I, Orihime, promise to help my new friend, Ulquiorra, to get back to his original form and help him learn compassion. Or may my food forever be tasteless." Orihime put up her right hand like she was actually swearing an oath.

When she saw him roll his eyes, she giggled.

"Hello. Earth to Orihime."

Orihime looked to her friend and saw a hand waving in front of her face. She was so deep in memory that she didn't notice that class was about to start.

"Oops. Sorry Tatsuki, I'm just a scatterbrain today."

Tatsuki just shook her head and went to her seat. Orihime breathed a sigh of relief that she was able to lie to her friend. She hated to do it but she couldn't just tell her about the truth. No matter how close they were.

"So this is what you call school, woman?"

Orihime looked to her left shoulder and saw Ulquiorra sitting there looking around the classroom. She brought him along so that she could keep an eye on him. She also thought it would be a good idea for him to learn more about the human world since he was going to live here for a while.

"Yep, this is school. Isn't it great?"

"This does not seem great by my standards."

Orihime smiled and went to sit down in her seat. When the bell rang the teacher came in and started the lesson.

'This is very boring," thought Ulquiorra. He was sitting cross-legged on the corner of Orihime's desk, watching the so called 'teacher' writing on the board. He looked up to see Orihime concentrating on the lesson and trying to write what he wrote. She was so busy that she didn't even notice Ulquiorra fly towards the chalkboard and was looking curiously at a piece of chalk. Because he was an espada no one could see him except for people with special abilities. This happens to be the shinigami gang.

Orihime finally looked up to see the infamous demon himself lifting up a piece of chalk. It was a little big for him because it took both of his clawed hands to lift it up and start doodling on the board. The teacher had his back to his students so he couldn't see their scared faces.

"Ghost!"

The teacher heard the remark and turned around to see all the same faces on everyone. He looked to where everyone had their eyes and saw the floating chalk as well. Ulquiorra was too busy doodling that he didn't notice everyone staring at him. When he was finished, he dropped the chalk on the floor and floated back a little to see his handiwork. He drew him and some shinigami fighting each other, with him winning. He was still stuck on his revenge for being small.

When he turned around to ask Orihime what she thought he saw that the classroom had emptied and only Ichigo, Uryuu, and Orihime were left.

"Is class over," Ulquiorra asked.

Ichigo glared, Uryuu pushed his glasses up, and Orihime sweat dropped.

"What were you thinking?!"

Ulquiorra didn't understand why he was brought outside and was being yelled at by the substitute shinigami. He didn't think his drawing was that bad.

"I was merely drawing because class was boring."

"You were drawing where everyone could see you! Now people think the classroom is haunted."

"Is that a bad thing?"

"Orihime, you talk to him. I can't make him understand without thinking of popping his little pea brain."

Orihime looked to Ichigo and saw his frustration. She turned to Ulquiorra and calmly explained on what he did and why he shouldn't do that. Ulquiorra nodded after her explanation and went to rest on her shoulder again. Orihime smiled at him then turned to Ichigo and Uryuu. Uryuu pushed his glasses up, which glinted because of the sun, and walked towards Orihime.

"Make sure that he stays out of trouble," said Uryuu while he patted the shoulder that didn't have Ulquiorra on it. Ichigo followed Uryuu without a word to Orihime but a glare to Ulquiorra. Orihime sighed and walked to class with them. 'This is going to be difficult,' she thought.
