Toshiro gets immediate medical attention for the girl met just so long ago. He knows she needs help fast because as she is slowly slipping into unconsciousness, she repeats Toshiro's name. After being healed by Captain Unohana, Toshiro decided to bring Rangiku back to 10th company's barracks. He lets her rest in his quarters' while he worked on some of his paperwork. A few minutes later, Rangiku Matsumoto, assistant captain of 10th company, walks in. She is concerned about her captain because he seems to be utterly distracted from his work. Toshiro notices Matsumoto staring at him, so he tries to act normal, but Matsumoto catches it. She asks, "What's wrong, captain? It seems something is bothering you." Toshiro just says that it has been a really weird day. A few moments later, Rangiku stumbles out of Toshiro's room. Matsumoto gets a devious look on her face that says, "Have you been doing what I think you've doing?" Toshiro blubbers out, "No!" Rangiku completely lost her balance and almost fell, but Toshiro caught her. "Oh! Sorry, Toshiro. I just really need some fresh air. Is it alright if I just step outside?" Rangiku asked, politely. "Sure, but are you going to be okay, on your own?" Toshiro worries. "Yes, I'll be fine." Rangiku then goes for a walk outside. She many people, but one really strikes her eye. She notices that he is looking at her, too. Renji asks his captain whether or not he knows who that girl is. Byakuya says he has no idea, and that maybe he should go find out. (Byakuya secretly senses that Renji feels something about this girl.) Renji says that he will be right back. Rangiku notices that the guy she was looking at was coming towards her, and she wasn't sure what to do. She felt herself compelled to walk toward this mysterious guy, so she did. They had almost gotten close enough to each other to shake hands, but instead Rangiku stumbled again, and fell right on top of Renji. They both stayed there for a moment, looking into each other's eyes. Renji thought, "What is this feeling for this girl?" While Rangiku thought, "Why am I so attracted to this guy? I don't even know him."
Cliffhanger! I'm going to leave you right there! More in chapter 4….what will happen between Rangiku and Renji? Please review!
