A/N: Woohoo! Another post from your loving Turtle! Show some love!

*silence and cricket noices*

Ah~ you guys aren't hyped up today? I feel so alone! Well guess you can show the love in a review, eh?

Let us begin once again! XD

Summary Ichigo: she loves him and he loves her but he's making every thing complicated! Now that the Vizards want him to join them and the Las Noches for some reason are no longer after him, whats Ichigo to think but that the Las Noches group are after his family members, and maybe Orihime too!

Genre for Chapter: family, friendship, drama, humor, and slight romance

P.O.V.: Ichigo

Disclaimer- Can i speak spanish like I shoud? Nope~ and it pisses the old man off (father dearest!). So i can't own Bleach either! *cry's in the corner*


I always thought of Orihime as strange so maybe that's how I came to have feelings for her over the course of time.

But just by having that emotion for her I could put her in danger.

I didn't want that, so I won't tell her.

You could say she was the sun in my life that stopped the rain. She is the light that lets me go on.

She taught me a word that means happy in Greek when we were younger. She told me her brother told her about it.

The word was Halcyon.

3. These Feelings of Halcyon

The concrete is cold on my skin. I know longer hear Tatsuki. I get up. The rain continues to fall with no intention of stopping.

My cloths stick to me like a second skin. I go to the edge of the roof near the gate. It's only the first day of school and all this has already started.

The hurt look Inoue had is carved into my head and it won't get out. I never want to see that look again, it hurts. It hurts more than a gun shot to the head to me. The pain sinks in deeper and deeper.

The rain continues to fall as I look down over the school court yard. I see a figure run to the road; it looks up at me with gray eyes and falls to the ground. Her hair is matted on the concrete and she won't move. I can tell right away who it is.

Inoue.

When I steer my head left I see the headlights of a near by car coming down the road. It honks its horn as it comes closer to Inoue and sees her helpless on the ground.

The car doesn't stop.

"Hime-chan!"

Another figure is yelling for her with white hair. It comes closer. I can't hold in my own yell.

"Inoue! INOUE!" my screams don't reach her, she lays still.

I tare my grip away from the wired fence and run down the stairs. I run and don't look back, my feet slam onto the tiled floors. I don't stop, because she is my halcyon.

I turn to the exit and see the rain go harder then before. I see no body on the ground. The car passes by like nothing ever happen.

I fall down to my knees. I was so close to losing her.

But what hits me the most is that the white haired figure is gone and so is Inoue.

My sun goes out and the rain continues to fall.


The rain still hits hard while I walk home. The rains never liked me and I've never liked the rain. It reminds me to much of my mother.

The earlier event of Inoue not being in the same spot I last saw her in (which was the wet road) bothers me more than any thing. I of course am worried about her and a little curious as to if she had heard me and Tatsuki talking about whether or not if I love her.

Which I do.

But she may have just heard the part about me thinking she is weak, which I don't really think at all. Inoue has to the most emotionally strong person I have known since my mother. She can keep her feeling to herself and will let them all out when she's alone.

You could call her a loner but I don't think that's it. She just doesn't want us to worry about her problems, which just causes us to worry even more.

I may have known her for eight years, but I don't know the real her. I know nothing of her past and I don't take the time to even learn about it. I've been a real ass hole to her these past years.

"Your going to give up and tell her you don't love her because she's weak?"

"I…"

"You're going to relies how much you need her, and you're going to see that you don't know what's good until it's gone!"

Tatsuki's words still burned. What she said was so true, but even if she isn't gone I can see that she means the world to me even now.

"Isn't the rain nice Kurosaki-kun?"

"Seems kind of sad to me…"

"But is makes a connection to our hearts, it can make halcyon!"

"Halcyon?"

"It's Greek for Happiness, my brother taught that word to me…."

"Well then this 'halcyon' stuff can make you sick if you dance in it Inoue."

"Ah~ Kurosaki-kun is such a kill joy!"

She use to talk so much but now I feel like she's shutting me out. I want to talk like we use to before. Kind of makes me want to know what made her stop talking to me in the first place…

Whatever, she doesn't want to talk then she doesn't want to talk.

I open the door to my house only to see a smirking Shiro. I blink, frown, then close the door.

"Ichi-nii," he whines. "That's not very nice!"

I open the door again and scowl at him. "Your fifteen Shiro and you act like Yuzu," I tell him dryly.

I hear Yuzu shout a "Hey!" from the living room.

I walk away to the comfort of my bed room. Shiro frown at me with his gold eyes.

"You aren't going to ask where I was for the last six months?" he said a little confused.

I don't look back to him and answer. "That's your business, not mine," I say and continue to my room.

The door is open and I walk in and lay on the bed. On the desk next to my bed is a picture. A picture with Tatsuki, my mom, Yuzu, Karin and Orihime.

In the picture Orihime smiles.

I look at it for what seems like hours. I look up to the ceiling and close my eyes.

These feelings of halcyon….

….they make me think of her.

Ichigo's P.O.V. end


A/N: Meh~ its to short! Longer chapter next time cause this one hurts my eyes! XD

I'm surprised to see that my writing has gotten better in such a short amount of time... who agrees?

*crickets chirp*

Maybe its just in my head then...

Well, any way i just wanted to say that this stroy was origanily made in third person, but then i saw that I couldn't really show every single characters different emotion during their scenes, so tada I made it in first person!

I love a story that can make me cry! Storys that show alot of emotion are the best!

So if you go to my favarites you will find Ichihime's that include tons of emotion! So go check them out!

BU-bye~
