Sorry for the long wait. My brother has been hogging the computer. I can't wait until I get my own laptop. Then I can update whenever I want. And just to let you know, this chapter is going to be mostly talking.
Disclaimer: As I've said before, I do not own Bleach.
There was a silence between Toushiro and Momo as they walked down the sidewalk. Momo was trying not to blush - and failing miserably. Meanwhile, Toushiro was still trying to get the image of Momo in a wet towel, out of his head. Momo finally decided to break the silence.
"Umm… H-Hitsugaya-san…" Momo stuttered trying to think of something they could talk about.
"Just call me Toushiro," he replied, sounding rather annoyed.
"Oh, Toushiro-kun. Um, if you don't mind me asking, why aren't you spending the break with your family?"
There was a long pause. "Because nobody is home right now. My older sister is away at collage, my Dad is out of town on business, and my Mom doesn't live with us anymore." He paused again. "What about you?"
"Oh, me? Well you see… I don't live with my family." Again there was silence.
"I'm sorry," Toushiro said quietly.
"That's alright, you didn't know." Momo decided a change of topic would be best. " So, what's the first thing you're going to do when we get there? I'm gonna start the fire so I can roast some marshmallows."
"I'm just gonna go explore around a bit. I've never been camping before."
"I haven't either. My family just thought I should be raised like a proper young lady. Unfortunately for them, I knew how to climb. I would always sneak out and just hang out with my friends. But in the end I was always caught." Momo was starting to get embarrassed again. She took a glance at Toushiro to see if he noticed her bright red face. Luckily for her, he was staring straight ahead. He was wearing a black hoody that was unzipped with a dark blue t-shirt underneath, baggy jeans, and Black and white sneakers.
Then she noticed a chain necklace with a pentagon shaped pendant hanging from it. "Hey Toushiro-kun, what's tha-?" Momo was interrupted by a very sudden, very loud "MOMO-CHAAAAN!!!!"
"AAAAAAAAH!!!" Momo lost her balance and fell forward as Orihime glomped her from behind. "HI MOMO-CHAN!!" Orihime exclaimed while still on top of Momo. "Um, Orihime-chan, can you please get off me?" Momo said while having Orihime squash her half to death.
Orihime quickly got off, "SORRY MOMO!!!" but was still yelling. Momo was covering her ears to try to keep her eardrums from bursting. "Orihime –chan, can you please stop yelling?"
"I was yelling?" Orihime was completely oblivious. Toushiro and Momo sighed, but someone else sight as well. They turned to see Ishida standing there looking as annoyed as ever.
"Oh ya! I invited Ishida along. Sorry I didn't tell you guys yesterday," Orihime had a huge grin across her face. "I saw him after school yesterday and he said he could come so here he is. He even treated me to ice-cream this morning, since I accidentially skipped breakfast."
The four continued to walk to the train station, Orihime talking the whole way. Momo never got a chance to ask Toushiro about that necklace.
Soon they were on the train with the rest of their friends, talking bout random things. Momo had forgotten all about the necklace.
There you go, the next chapter. I hope you like it because I won't be updating for a bit. Anyway, please R&R.
