Chapter 3:Returning

Matsumoto eyes jumped opened at the sound of his name. Renji finally caught his breath as he faced her.

"Did you hear me I said Hit-" She ran out the room before he could finish.

"Are you really back?" She thought to herself as she ran down the hallways until she reach the front gates. Her heart stop as she saw him, even though she was behind a crowd of people she saw him clearly. His messy white hair was longer than before, he was a lot taller now he was at least a head taller than she was, and seemed to be bigger since his plain white shirt showed it.

She stood there in awe, he changed so much since she last saw him.

"You got guts walking through the front door like that, state your name." Shin said folding his arms in front of Toshiro.

"Toshiro Hitsuguya." He said with a yawn.

Shin eyes flew opened before smirking. "Ah Former captain of squad ten, so you have returned."

"Rank."

"Excuse me?"

"What is your ranking." Toshiro said narrowing his eyes at him.

"Captain of squad Ten." Shin said with proud.

Suddenly all the captains came down and some vice captains too.

"Toshiro Hitsuguya what business do you have in returning back here." Yamatmoto voice boomed.

"I'm here to take my take my spot as squad ten's captain again." He said getting annoyed that people kept asking him the same question. Most of the tenth people cheered as Matsumoto smiled.

"I'm sorry but your spot has been filled by Shin over here and you know the rules."

"Unless you feel lucky you can try and beat me." Shin said smirking.

Toshiro raised his eyebrow at this. "You a rookie think you can beat me?"

"As from I heard before Toshiro Hitsuguya, was the youngest to become a captain, but due to his early age and his lack of experience he was consider one of the weakest." Shin said as his smirk grew larger.

Matsumoto felt her blood boil, how dare he insult her taicho like that even when he was young her captains was far from weak, she was about to go over there and kill Shin when she saw Toshiro take his sword off his back and threw it to Jushiro , who fumbled it before catching it.

"If your that confident then, I'll make you a deal if you can stop me from getting my sword then you can have it."

Shin smirked turned into a smile. "My, my wouldn't that be a prize, to have the strongest ice sword so what happens if you win?"

"You'll be dead." Toshiro said yawning a again.

Everyone eyes jumped as how could speak about killing someone so easily?

"Deal." Shin said as he pulled out his sword.

Toshiro started to walk to Jushiro as Shin ran up to him but when he reached him he fell over next to him as Toshiro grabbed the of the coat and took it off him while he was falling.

Everyone stood shocked, what happen? They all thought as Toshiro slung the coat over his shoulder and continued walking to Jushiro. Toshiro took his sword back and smiled at Jushiro, then continued to walk off.

Soon everyone returned to their posts as Matsumoto still stood there in her spot, she watched as a few people helped Shin that when she notice a ice crystal in Shin's head.

"Tenth division captain and vice captain come see me in my office." The general said through the speaker.

Matsumoto quickly ran to her destination as she took her seat and waited for Toshiro to come.

"Matsumoto you have changed so much, Shin left a good impression on you I'm sure Toshiro will be impress." Yamatmoto said seeing her uneasiness.

She smiled at him as they waited but after a few minutes he didn't show just as they going to look for him, he opened the door and entered.

"You're late." Yamatmoto said not pleased.

"My coat smelled of smoke so I had to wash it." He said taking his seat.

"In any case since you have just came back you will be under someone watch and I thought it would be better if you stayed at Matsumoto's since you seem to be closer with her."

Matsumoto eyes widen as Toshiro stared at him for a moment. "Wouldn't it be better if I just stayed with Jushiro-taicho?" Matsumoto turned to him shocked, did he not want to be around her?

"Jushiro sickiness is getting serious."

Toshiro eyes narrowed at that. "Hasn't anyone tried to help him?"

"Toshiro I know he's like a father figure to you but-"

"So you're gonna let him die like that!" Toshiro said slamming his fist on the desk.

Matsumoto jumped, she has never show this side of him, and it frighten her a bit.

"Calm down I didn't call you here because of him."

"Fine but if he dies I won't forgive you." Toshiro said leaving.

"That boy forgot his manners while he was gone."

"Forgive him sir, I will go after him." She said bowing to him before leaving.

Matsumoto rushed out looking for him she found him walking down the hall.

"Taicho!"

He turned to face. "What is it Matsumoto."

"I just thought you should rest that all."

He yawned. "Yeah I guess."

She smiled at him as they started to walk to her place. They walked in silence until Matsumoto suddenly spoke.

"I missed you."

He turned his head towards her shocked as she turned hers to meet his gaze but he turned his attention back forward the blush on his cheek was noticeable.

"Troublesome woman." She giggled at his comment.

They soon reach her place as she unlocked her door, it was small but neat Matsumoto took off her shoes as he did the same and followed her.

"I know it small but it's mine."

"It's fine." He said looking around. "Where will you be putting me?"

"Well I don't have a couch and there is only one bedroom, I guess you can sleep with me." She said blushing.

He narrowed his eyes before sitting down in a corner in the living room. "This will be fine."

She stared at him. "Bu-"

"I am not sleeping in the same bed with you Matsumoto and that's that." He said closing his eyes.

"What's the problem with sleeping in the same bed as me?"

"Trust." He said flatly.

She stood there in shock, did he not trust her? She wiped her her eyes before any tears could come out.

"I see well I'm gonna go out for a drink." She said before leaving.

He opened one eye before sighing. "You don't understand, what I meant by that." He whisper before shutting his eyes back again.

Review please I'm sorry if it didn't turn out good ;[
