Hello everybody. here is chapter 3. Updated and Uploaded. I hope you all enjoy it even though it may be abit rough.

"Sir please set her in the chair so I can take her vitals." The young black haired man said. His eyes were a dark brown and his hair was nearly jet black. His face was clear and young looking. He didn't seem to be older than 27 years old. Ulquiorra made no move to set Orihime down in the seat he knew had not been cleaned after the last patient had sat there. He look her in the eyes and she just nodded which made him slowly set her in the seat but stopped each time she twitched or winced from the pain. "My name is Shino, I will just put this…" He trailed off as he took in the sight of her large breast and practically paid no mind to the blood on her shirt. It took Ulquiorra clearing his throat for the nurse to finish his thought. " I will just put this around your upper arm" he wrapped the cuff around her uninjured arm. "This on your index finger," he put the clip-like sensor on the index finger of her uninjured arm. "And this under your tongue," as he set it in her mouth he froze momentarily as he watched her lips close around the thermometer as if it occured in slow motion. Ulquiorra frowned as he realized that Orihime didn't seem to notice the unprofessional actions of the man. He jotted the vitals down on the paper then entered them in the computer. "Alright follow me I'll lead you to your room." Shino said after he wrapped the patient intake bracelet on Orihime's good(ish) wrist. It did cause her some discomfort but not as much as her arm as she began to get dizzy from the constant pain. The adrenaline that had been running through her no longer was so the pain was hitting her full she could even attempt to follow Shino, Ulquiorra had already pulled her into his arms but gentler this time.
Orihime was grateful when Ulquiorra carried her. Her whole body was sore and she felt cold for some reason so she snuggled up to him as much as she could without causing herself too much pain. He walked gracefully, not even allowing Orihime to bob and shake with his movements, through the halls as he followed Shino to the room. They got to the room and Ulquiorra was directed to set Orihime on the bed and was also told that the doctor would be in shortly to assist them. Shino then left, as a nurse at the station across from the door had called for him, closing the door behind him. Ulquiorra had not set Orihime down till the door had shut. He was slow and gentle about it not wanting to cause her any pain. He was about to walk across the rom to prop himself against the wall but was stopped when Orihime grabbed his sleeve with her better hand but still winced.
"Could you stay here with me a little longer? You're warm." She mumbled not wanted her abdomen to hurt anymore than it already was. Ulquiorra didn't answer but just sat on the edge of the hospital bed. Orihime laid her head on his lap and relaxed into his warmth. Ulquiorra took his tie off and tied Orihime's saffron hair back with it. He then set his hand on the top of her head and caressed her hair as he had read in a book somewhere that it was a comforting gesture. This eased Orihime into a state of unconsciousness as the pain helped knock her out. As her breathing evened out you could hear her breathing hitch from the pain. It took the doctor 30 minutes to get to the room.
"Hello my name is Marcy Muto I'll be your doctor this morning, what seems to be the problem today?" The woman said as she entered the room. She was tall and had short milk chocolate brown hair, she was slender and had enough make-up on to accent her eyes but made her plain appearance look more average. She looked professional and not over the top like some of the nurses they had passed as they walked to Orihime's hospital room.
"Orihime was on her way to school when she got assaulted by a fellow student. And he kicked her in the stomach it seems and in various other places. The school nurse advised us to come here." Ulquiorra spoke for Orihime as she still laid there sleeping. Orihime being dead to the world as she laid there in Ulquiorra's lap unconscious still since he didn't see the need to wake her when it was pretty obvious about the events and what happened. Ulquiorra knew that if he was to wake Orihime she'd start going on tyrants about frivolous topics as he remembered her antics and conversations that he'd overheard since they first met. Lately he's noticed a change in her though.
For nearly the whole visit Orihime slept. At least until they needed to examine her completely, without him in the room. Ulquiorra had stood against the wall next to the door as Orihime spoke to the doctor who had arrived while she slept. Ulquiorra was patient and was finally allowed back into the room 10 minutes before Orihime was discharged. As they discharged Orihime a nurse came in with a receptionist, who had all the discharge papers, and some medical supplies. As the receptionist went over what the forms were and where to sign, the nurse had wrapped Orihime's ankle. Once all the forms were signed the receptionist had left and the nurse wrapped Orihime so her ribs and right shoulder were secured as well as both of her wrists. The nurse then handed the partially mummified girl a couple prescriptions to get filled at the pharmacy down the road and then gave her two pain pills to take immediately for her current pain. The internal bleed that the school nurse had mentioned was very small and had somehow healed completely by the time they had gotten there so there was no need for it to be addressed. As the nurse said she'd show them the way out Ulquiorra then picked up his classmate and carried her as he followed behind the nurse by about 5 maybe 6 feet. Once they left the hospital they went to the pharmacy, where Ulquiorra insisted on carrying Orihime there too, and then went to Orihime's when her prescription was filled and handed to them. By the time they had gotten back to her place it was 12:30 in the afternoon.
"Thank you Ulquiorra," Orihime said as she pulled her keys out of her pocket. When she realized Ulquiorra hadn't let her down yet she cleared her throat quietly as a light blush covered her cheeks. "Um. Could you put me down please?" She asked looking up at his face. He was as expressive as always. He gave out no emotion which led Orihime to believe he may be constipated or that he was a robot… well at the beginning she had but as the Espadas and the Soul Reapers started feuding she soon realized that wasn't the case. The ones who initially fought were Grimmjow, Nnoitra, and Ichigo. Then, Renji,Rukia, Tammy and Zommari joined which led to a full out war in the end.
Ulquiorra looked at her and after a few seconds he set her down but stayed exactly where he was so that she had just enough room to open the door but to still be able to use him for support since her sprained ankle was pretty bad. The pain meds had already began to kick in for Orihime and she was feeling like she was floating and dizzy. She hadn't realized she'd been leaning against Ulquiorra while unlocking the door so she could go inside. Halfway to the couch she had bought that now sits on the wall adjacent to her desk, Orihime had a sudden increase in the dizzy feeling she had and began to fall. Had she fallen she would not have been able to get up but she didn't have to worry since Ulquiorra had caught her and picked her back up. "Are you suffering side effects of the medication they gave you? Are they ineffective?" Ulquiorra asked as he set Orihime gently onto the couch. Looking around he noticed how she had recently moved some of the furniture in the room around. (Based on episode 3's layout.) The desk still sat in the corner based on the lack of skid marks on the floor around it like some of the other items. Next to said desk was now her brother's shrine then a small three layer book shelf. But on adjacent to the desk was a new looking couch that was a peach color that had four cushions and a matching rocking chair next to it but at an angle. Across from the sofa was a semi a flat screen T.V. and there were pictures scattered around the room.
'I wonder.' Ulquiorra thought to himself as he noticed something was not right. What was wrong he could not place it. He glanced at the clock that sat on the corner of Orihime's desk and saw it was about time for sixth block to begin and soon school would be over and he'd have to make the meeting at 4.
"I'm fine." Orihime mumbled as she adjusted herself on the couch so she was in a more comfortable position. "Sorry for making you miss so much school today. Thank you for the help." Orihime said barely trying to keep up her happy mask. With that Ulquiorra nodded and then excused himself, he locked the door knob from the inside before he had left. This left Orihime to try and find a way to still go through with her 'mission' without the medication getting in the way. She felt weird and nearly out of control. She summons the spirits of her Shun Shun Rikka as she decided it was time to start some training.
