"Late night visits and suspicions"
Soifon had the most pleasant dream. She did not feel like waking up, or even opening her eyes, but knew that she had to. She slowly opened her eyes to feel the morning light burning into her room and on her skin. Upon waking up, she felt a bit different, clothes-wise anyways. She rolled around a bit to get her body ready to at least sit up, and to her surprise, she found herself in her night clothes. 'Wait…how did I get into my night clothes?! Was I literally DRUNK last night?!' She sat up, and felt her blanket slide off of her torso. 'That explains my non-shivering of last night…It was quite comfy actually…'
She took one WILD guess of who might have snuck in her room and took proper care of her, but she shook her head, ridding herself of that thought. Soifon decided to stretch from her sleep to get her muscles flowing, and took a moment to stare at her blanket. Even though her predictions were more than far-fetched, looking down at her blanket, her eye caught, what seemed to be a long violet strand of hair. A bit a shock arose in her, but Soifon couldn't help but smile.
Smiling there, her mind rang up that it was time to go to work, but being reminded of the paperwork she had left to do, she made a disgusted face and suddenly didn't feel like going anymore, for she knew her hand would give out like before. In the back of Soifon's mind, she wanted to be lazy, at least for a day. 'No, I have loyalties and responsibilities to attend to. I don't have time to even THINK about taking a day off! But I…' She looked at her hand that she had placed in front of herself. Soifon's only emotion was confusion. She laid back down and went back to sleep.

Hitstuguya was busy sipping on his tea when Matsumoto, who came barging in, said, "You know captain, you could at least pay a spec of attention to notice that the second squad's captain is not at her post." Not even paying attention to what she said, he set his tea down and replied, "Matsumoto, what kind of non-sense are you coming into my office with now? Do you realized, with your no-show, I have tons of paperwork left to do? I ask you, where were you when all this was taking place?" A nervous look, along with a sweat drop, appeared on the orange-haired woman's face, and to make this quick and not to get in trouble, in a fast tone, she said, "Well, I wanted to ask permission to go to the human world, but while running, Yachiru-chan asked me where I was going, so I told her, and then she ran off and told Kenpachi-taichou about what I told her, and both Ikkaku-kun and Renji-kun over-heard the conversation they were having, and they all wanted to go to the human world. All I wanted to do was get some more make-up products! When that was finished, I found out that Soifon-taichou wasn't at her post, since I wanted to ask her if she wanted to go to the human world too. After that, I came rushing to your office to tell you that Soifon-taichou isn't at her post, and here we are having this conversation."
Both Hitstuguya and Matsumoto stood in silence for a moment. To break the silence, Hitstuguya decided to respond, "I see…I'll go check if Soifon is okay or not, but don't tell anyone of what you just told me. " With a fast pace, he walked out of his office to Soifon's headquarters and knocked on the door followed by, "Oi! Soifon! You okay in there? Matsumoto told me that you weren't at your post, so I came to see what happened. Did something happen?"
A deafening silence grew amongst them. The scolding captain waiting outside the door drew his hand up to knock again, but was interrupted by a voice that said, "Everything is fine. There was no need to check up on me like that. I just wanted to take the day off of work. It will make my mind explode if I go back to my office. Please tell Ohmaeda that he could cover for me." Another momentary silence grew upon the two captains. It was nerve-wrecking, and neither of them felt much like talking about why she wouldn't go back to her post. She was simply worn out and confused with all the paperwork she had left, and he knew that. He replied, "Get better soon." Soifon felt a little better after that, and heard the captain, that was right outside her door, leave.
Poem tid-bit number 2
"Desperately, I need to find you
A way to see you again.
Without seeing you, I have fallen into despair,
But, I am waiting for you to catch me.
