Thoughts
Chap 2
"Hurry up Karin! Or we're gonna be late for our first class." Rukia called out as she went for the door. Karin was, at the time packing her things for her classes and fixing her tie before she ran after Rukia. It was Karin's second day in Gotei Academy and for some reason she felt quite excited.
In the classroom (English)
"Hey Toshiro!" Karin greeted the short, white-haired boy as she went to sit next to Rukia.
"Yo." Toshiro said as he continued to read his book. Karin was busy unpacking her things to see Rukia's little smirk when she saw Karin greet the little boy.
"Good Morning class. I know this may be early but I have a project to give you all. You are to write an essay on the topic of your choice. You are given two weeks to do it and on the last day you will present it to the class. You will have to do it in pairs and I will assign it to you." Mr Ukitake explained before he took out the name list.
"Sheesh, every time these teachers choose our pairings they will always pair the enemies together." Rukia complained. Karin was just concerned about the project. As she looked around, she saw many of the girls were eyeing on Toshiro. Probably because he is one of the good looking in the class, no the whole school. Even Karin felt a tinge of jealousy making her quite shocked. She was so deep in thought that she did not listen to the pairings. Once she was out of her thoughts she saw the rest of the class getting with their partners. Karin tried to figure who her partner was but she had a good idea who it was, once she saw all of the girls glaring at her.
"Are you gonna sit there all day or are you going to discuss for our topic?" Toshiro asked from behind. I knew it. Karin thought.
"Yeah, yeah. So what topic do you want to research on?" Karin replied.
"I heard from your brother that you like soccer, so how about we do something relating to that." Toshiro suggested. That idiot brother! Just had to go around and tell his friends about me! But why would Toshiro suggest that. I mean does it really matter to him if I like soccer.Karin wondered.
"I'm fine with that." Karin answered before telling the teacher.
In the canteen (Lunch, girl's table) :
Karin just couldn't figure out why Toshiro would just suggest a topic that is referred to her liking. She thought he was the type of guy who wouldn't care about anyone's preferences.
"…Karin! Earth to Karin!" Rangiku called out, waving her hand in front of Karin.
"Huh, what! Did I miss something?" Karin asked with a blank face.
"Duh, you practically zoned out during the whole conversation! What are you thinking about?" Rangiku asked.
"None of your business." Karin said as she took her first bite off her apple.
"Man you sound like Toshiro. Which reminds me, Rukia said that you two were paired up for the project. Wow your one lucky duck!" Rangiku said as she nudged Karin on the shoulder with her elbow.
"I don't get what the big deal is. He's just a guy." Karin remarked.
"Well he is one of the hottest guys in the school and is known as a young genius when you see his results. He's also very good at sports especially those using swords! If any girl dates him, she is a lucky girl." Orihime said with a smirk.
"But he isn't really much of a socialist. He usually keeps things to himself. The only people he talks mostly to is Momo." Rukia continued.
"Even then, he seems to have quite an interest in you. He seems to be more open to you even when he just met you." Momo calmly said as she drank her iced tea.
"I have a question for you Karin. Do like Toshiro?" Rangiku asked with a wide grin. Karin almost choked on her apple when she heard that remark.
"ARE YOU SERIOUS? I JUST MET HIM! HOW CAN I HAVE A CRUSH ON HIM?" Karin blurted out with her face blushing red.
"Oh my, young Karin is blushing! It must be true!" Rangiku squealed.
In the canteen (Lunch, boy's table):
At the same time, the boys were looking at the girls squealing over some matter. There, Uryū Ishida andYasutora Sado or as everyone calls him, Chad joined them for lunch. They, including Orihime were friends with Ichigo for a long time. Uryū had straight raven-colored hair, fair-skinned and glasses, Chad had wavy brown hair, tall and musculine, and had a Mexican decent.
"What do you think they're talking about?" Ichigo asked as he continued to look at the girls.
"Does it really matter? It obviously some girly thing like clothes or something. Girls always go crazy over these little things. I will never understand them." Renji complained as he finished his soda.
"It may be girl things but it seems that your sister is blushing over it, Ichigo."Uryū Ishida said as he looked closer to Karin's face. Once he heard that, Ichigo looked closer to see that there was indeed a tinge of red over Karin's face.
"Speaking of Karin, I heard from Rukia that you two are partners for the project. Is that true Toshiro?" Ichigo asked the small boy calmly drinking his juice.
"Yeah, it's true. So what Ichigo, it's just a project, it doesn't really concern you." Toshiro answered.
"Of course it does! This is my sister we're talking about! You better not do anything funny, Toshiro!" Ichigo implied with a straight face. Toshiro spit out his juice when he heard that statement.
"WHAT! THAT IS DISGUSTING! I WILL NEVER DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT!" Toshiro exclaimed with fury in his eyes.
"I know, just making sure." Ichigo said as he saw Toshiro's eyes glaring at him like they were daggers ready to plunge into his heart.
End of school (Hallway):
Toshiro was on his way to meet Karin to discuss for their project in the library. As he was making his way there, he kept replaying what her brother said. How can that idiot think that I will do such a disgusting thing to Karin? I mean she's cute but… Wait what am I saying, thinking that Karin Kurosaki is cute. I must have lost it.Soon Toshiro found Karin and went into discussing their report.
In Karin's dorm:
"So how was your study date with the snow prince?" Rukia teased. Karin glared at her roommate.
"For the last time I do not like Toshiro! And it was not a study date! We were discussing our project!" Karin exclaimed in anger.
"You keep saying that, but I will continue to think of it as a study date." Rukia replied calmly as she continued to read her book. Karin ignored her annoying roommate and began studying again. However, she did feel something when they were discussing. As they discussed, she saw his teal eyes sparkle and his white hair being more pure. Maybe she did feel something for Toshiro. Can't be.
In Toshiro's dorm:
"What took you so long?" Renji, Toshiro's roommate asked.
"Some girl confessed to me as I was coming back." Toshiro said calmly as he changed into a white shirt.
"You turned her down didn't you?" Renji replied.
"She wasn't my type. She was the type who only cared about outer appearances." Toshiro answered.
"Well now that's no. 37! I never thought that one guy could break that many hearts!" Renji remarked. Toshiro just ignored him. "I wonder, if it was Karin would you turn her down?" Renji asked mischievously.
"Renji you idiot. Can't you and the others just stop talking about that. For the last time we are just partners, nothing else." Toshiro replied sternly but he knew Renji wouldn't listen. However, he did have a little liking to her when they were together in the library. He could see her dark eyes and ebony hair gleam under the light, making her have somewhat of a angelic appearance for once. Maybe he did have feelings for Karin. Can't be.
And that's it, please review.
Note: Would you prefer Momo to be just a sister to Toshiro or would you want her to fight with Karin for his love. Please review it. Thanks!
