Just a little drabble I thought to share with everyone

It's a little spoiler for my fic "The Beginning of Everything." It's Ichigo/Byakuya again of course.

Confession

The first time Ichigo received a confession, she had beaten up the boy.

In her defence, it was an accident.

Well, actually, it wasn't.

But she had thought that the boy was stalking her for a fight, not for a love confession.

The poor boy had been following the orange-haired girl for days on end, pissing off the fifteen-year-old horribly.

When he had finally summoned enough courage to actually say the words out, he jumped out in front of her so suddenly it startled her so much she reacted on instinct. She broke the poor boy's nose with a punch and then kicked his stomach before even realising what she had done.

Even years later, her friends never stopped reminding her of what a riot she had caused.

The last time she received a confession, was at the end of the final battle in the war between the Shinigami and Arrancar.

The white bridal dress she wore was soaked in blood that was of her own as well as from her fallen opponents. Zangetsu was beside her, coated with blood, as his owner laid dying on the ground of the throne room in Las Noches.

She tried to distinguish through her blurred vision who was above her, pressing down on the large wound on her abdomen, trying to quell the gushing blood.

"Kurosaki Ichigo!"

Who was that shouting so loudly in her ear? She wondered, feeling extremely tired, sleepy and confused.

"Please! Stay with me, Ichigo!"

She could somehow detect worry and desperation in the voice calling her, though she didn't know how, considering how out-of-whack her mind was at that moment. Ichigo tried to focus on the black blob above her. Was that who she thought it was? What was he doing here? What was he saying?

"No! I can't lose you too!"

How ironic, she thought to herself as she gazed up dazedly at the man she loved, she had beated up Kuchiki Byakuya before as well didn't she?

How odd, she thought idly as darkness engulfed her consciousness.

Owari

And no, I did not kill Ichi. The story just goes like that. You'll find out what happened as the story proceeds in "The Beginning of Everything" Arc.

Also, I'll be moving "The Beginning of Everything" from "Bya/Ichi" catergory to "All Character/All Character" category soon. Probably next week when I update again. For now, jya!
