"MOMO!"

A young girl around the age of 17 sat straight up in her bed.

"Momo! get down here it's time for breakfast."

Silence.

"So get me my freaking breakfast."

Momo Hinamori sighed and fell back onto her bed.

"NOW!" Soi Fong yelled, seemingly at the top of her lungs.

Momo rolled out of bed and pulled her messy brown hair into a pony tail, Stretching and yawning as she walked to the kitchen. When she walked in Tatsuki and Orihime were at the table already dressed for school which didn't start... Momo looked at the clock on the stove... for another three hours.

"Bout time. I'm starving here." Tatsuki said practically glaring at Momo.

"God forbid you make your own breakfast for once." Momo mumbled searching through the refrigerator trying to find the bacon and eggs.

"What was that?" Tatsuki asked crossing her arms.

Momo sighed and mumbled a "nothing"

"That's what I thought."

Grabbing the frying pan and placing it on the stove she made a mental note to buy more eggs next time she went to the store. Cracking the eggs into a bowl and mixing them with a fork her eyes searched for the spatula that usually sat on a hook above the stove.

"Anyone know where the spatula is?" Momo asked still searching for said object.

"My mother had it earlier." Orihime spoke up first.

Momo tilted her head in confusion. "Why would you mother need the spatula?"

As if on cue Soi Fong flew into the kitchen spatula in hand chasing what looked like a fly. Momo almost screamed, she was using the spatula, the on that she made breakfast with, to kill a fly. A loud slap brought Momo out of her reverie and she looked at a victorious Soi Fong.

"Gotcha you little bugger." Soi Fong said looking at Momo's disgusted face. "What are you looking at? Here" Soi Fong handed Momo the spatula "burn it or something, and hurry up with breakfast

I'm hungry." Soi Fong finished as she sat down at the table.

Momo managed to make the eggs with a fork and set them on the table with the bacon and scrapple. Momo then grabbed three plates from the cabinet and set them in front of Soi Fong, Tatsuki and Orihime.

"That reminds me." Soi Fong said seemingly out of the blue "You have to work the late shift at the restaurant tonight."

Momo who was walking out of the kitchen to take a shower turned around "Why?" she asked.

"Because I said so." Was the only answer Momo received. Momo was about to say something else but decided against it. What was the point, besides now was not the best time to get on Soi Fong's bad side, with college right around the corner. Because no Soi Fong meant no tuition money which meant no Seireitei University. Momo walked out of the kitchen with a small "okay."

Momo beeped the horn of her beat up convertible for the 5th time that morning and sighed. Then she perked up a bit when she saw her best friend and her brother walk out the front door of a very large house. Her friend wearing a jean skirt and dark blue short sleeve shirt, and the brother wearing a suit with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, due to the hot weather Momo guessed. Momo waved at Rukia and signaled for her to hurry up.

Rukia Kuchiki had been Momo's best friend since first grade. Both girls, almost polar opposites, had immediately taken a liking to each other one day when Momo was being picked on. Momo was and still is very timid and shy, and Rukia, who had stuck up for her that day, was outgoing and loud, it was a very rare occasion when you didn't know what was on Rukia Kuchiki's mind.

Rukia stood on her tiptoes and gave her brother a kiss on the cheek. "Bye Byakuya, I'll see you after school." She said with a bright smile on her face. He gave her a smile as well and said "Have a nice day Rukia and remember Hisana is going to be home when you get home to take you school clothes shopping. Although I don't know why, I think you have enough clothes as it is." Hisana was Byakuya's wife, Rukia's sister-in-law. Rukia lived with her brother because Rukia's parents, who lived in America until Rukia was 7, moved back to Japan. They wanted Rukia to stay in America where they believed she would get a better education, and Rukia didn't complain, she liked living in America. When Byakuya heard that their parents were moving back to Japan he immediately offered to take Rukia in. Him being 15 years older then Rukia was 22 at the time. Then a year later he proposed to his high school sweet heart, Hisana.

Hisana and Rukia had hit it off as soon as Hisana moved in, Hisana being the sister Rukia never had and vice versa.

"Rukia! Come on. I don't want to be late... again." Momo shouted, getting both Rukia and Byakuya's attention.

"I'm coming, sheesh." Rukia said rolling her eyes she gave Byakauya one last goodbye before she walked towards Momo's car. "Bye Rukia, bye Momo." Byakuya said before getting into his car as well to go to the law firm where he worked.

Once Rukia got in the car Momo took off.

"Momo?" Rukia asked.

"Yes?" Was Momo's response.

"Have you thought about going to the end of the year ball?" Rukia asked while moving her hair our of her face.

Momo sighed, Rukia just wasn't gonna let this go, was she?

"I don't think so Rukia."

"Why not Momo!?" Rukia practically yelled.

"It's just... I don't know." Momo sighed once again. "People like me don't go to dances, they work them."

"That's an awful excuse Momo." Rukia said, crossing her arms.

"I'd feel to out of place, I've only ever been to like two dances Rukia, and they were all casual dances too, this one is a "get all prettied up and get a date" kind of dance."

"So?" Rukia spat.

"If you haven't noticed Rukia, I'm not that pretty, and I don't have the money to get all pretty." Momo said, making a left.

Rukia looked at her friend as if she were crazy. She looked at what Momo was wearing. A pair of tight dark blue jeans and a white tank top with a peach colored cami underneath and a pair of black converses. Rukia then looked at Momo's hair, pulled back in the usual bun. Then suddenly Momo felt a sharp pain in her arm and swerved a little. When she regained control of her car she gave Rukia her most deadly glare.

"Rukia what the hell? I'm driving here!"

Rukia just shook her head and mumbled something.

"What?" Momo said starting to get angry.

"You are pretty Momo, I don't know why you think your not." Rukia said in an almost said voice.

Momo stared straight ahead and there was absolute silence until they pulled up to the school.

"Sorry." They both said at the same time and they gave each other smiles.

"Do you see a parking spot, Rukia?" Momo asked.

Rukia looked around and saw two empty spots next to each other.

"Right over there." Rukia said while pointing at said spots.

Momo went to pull in to one of the parking spots when all the sudden a white BMW cut her off and pulled into both spots. Momo growled in annoyance.

"You snooze you lose." Came a very high pitched voice. Momo looked up and saw Karin Toho with a mocking and victorious smirk on her face. She looked next to Karin and saw her twin sister Yuzu Toho and their friend Isane Kotetsu. They were known and the "In" crowd.

"Momo just ignore them, look, there's a parking spot over there." Rukia said once again pointing to a vacant spot, and once again when Momo went to pull in she was cut off, but this time by a dark blue hummer. Momo growled once again and slammed her head on the steering wheel.

She looked up when she heard a door close a saw them, the rest of the "In" crowd. First she looked at Renji Abarai, bright red hair pulled back into a spiky pony tail and a pair of sun glasses on top of his head, he was wearing a pair of faded jeans and a plain black T-shirt. Then she looked at Ichigo Kurosaki obnoxiously bight orange hair spiked in the usual fashion, he was wearing a pair of dark blue jeans and a dark purple shirt that said "Status Quo". Then she looked at him. Toshiro Hitsugaya, captain and star of Rukongai High's soccer team, student body president and school heart throb. His white hair in its usually gravity defying style, and he was wearing a pair of light blue jeans and a dark blue long sleeved shirt with the sleeves pushed up to his elbows.

Momo had to admit she thought he was hot, very, very hot, but she didn't know him well enough to say she had a crush on him or anything like that.

"Did you ever notice that all three of them have the weirdest hair colors?" Rukia asked still looking ahead and smirking. Momo giggled, then sighed for the millionth time that morning when she remembered she still had to find a spot to park, she looked around the parking lot and saw nothing.

"Toshiro!" Karin's voice forced Momo to look straight once again. When she looked up she saw the Karin had pulled Toshiro into a kiss.

"Ughh. I swear Rukia, people like Karin and Toshiro are genetically programed to find each other." Momo said with an eye roll, causing Rukia to giggle. Then Rukia stood up on her seat and before Momo could stop her yelled "Hey do me a favor and get a room, or at least get out of our way."

Momo grabbed Rukia's skirt and pulled back into her seat.

"Rukia, will you shut up." Momo hissed.

"Whats your problem Kuchiki? Looked down and realized you didn't have boobs and decided to take it out on everyone else."

Yuzu and Isane giggled and Renji and Ichigo gave a hearty laugh, even Toshiro smirked.

"Oh shut the hell up Karin. And what the hell are you laughing at??" She yelled pointing at Renji and Ichigo.

"The joke" Was Ichigo's response.

Rukia jumped out of the car and stomped her way to Ichigo.

"I'm sorry what was that Strawberry?" Rukia said a triumphant smirk on her face.

Ichigo fumed and Renji laughed harder.

"What could you not hear me from all the way down there?" Ichigo was now wearing the triumphant smirk. Renji continued to pee himself.

"Why you!"

Ichigo and Rukia were now forehead to forehead in an intense glaring contest.

Momo who had found a parking spot close by rolled her eyes at her friends antics and after she put the hood up and locked her car she started to make her way over to the group of people.

"Careful Ichigo, she might bite, and you don't want to catch loser from her." Isane said, which erected another laugh from the group.

Momo finally made it to them. she stood next to the fighting pair and sighed crossing her arms and closing her eyes. When she opened her eyes she grabbed the top of Rukia's skirt and pulled her out the the glaring contest, causing Ichigo to fall face first onto the ground. Rukia smiled, but then directed a glare toward Momo. Renji continued to laugh at his friends expense.

"What the hell Hinamori? I was winning." Rukia said as she pulled herself free from Momo's hold on her. Momo sighed again and looked up and noticed that Toshiro was staring at her. She looked away, Toshiro didn't, more like couldn't look away, he couldn't help but stare at her.

"As if, I totally had you beat." Ichigo said standing up and rubbing his sore nose and pulling Toshiro back to the situation at hand.

"You wanna go?" Rukia said and before anyone knew it they were forehead to forehead once again.

"Rukia." Everyone looked at Momo who turned a light pink at the sudden attention but regained her composure and continued. "Let's just go I-"

"Stay out of it server girl. Don't you have tables to bus or something." Karin said cutting Momo off.

Momo looked at her shocked, server girl? Just because she worked and had to earn her money she was a server girl?

Rukia, who pulled away from Ichigo, causing his face to hit the cement once more, was now glaring at Karin. Renji crying he was laughing so hard.

"Why don't you keep your mouth shut and mind your own business." Rukia spat.

"And why don't you stop picking fights." Renji, who had managed to stop his laughing st hearing Rukia go after Karin, said stepping forward. Rukia then turned her attention to him.

"You want a piece of me too Pineapple head!?!?" Rukia shouted taking a step closer to him.

Renji growled and and crossed his arms.

"Your not worth my time ya pipsqueak."

"EXCUSE ME!!!" Rukia belted.

Finally Toshiro spoke up.

"Alright, alright. I think that's enough excitement for me for one morning. I'm out." He said with a wave of his hand as he started to walk away.

"I'm with Toshiro on that." Karin said as she left to catch up with Toshiro.

Renji and Ichigo gave Rukia one last glare and followed after them and Yuzu and Isane left after them.

Momo looked at Rukia.

"You really have to learn how to control that mouth of yours." Momo said as too headed toward the school.

Rukia scoffed and followed after her.
