Mizuki walked inside and gently closed the door. She paused and heard her mother talking on the phone.
"No sir she doesn't need a therapist. She is perfectly fine, me and my husband don't think she would ever do that. No she is not doing drugs either." Her mother scowled at the wall and angrily paced around the kitchen. Her mother kept answering and arguing on the phone, her patients was obviously wearing dangerously thin. She took this chance and crept up the stairs and looked back, no one. Good. She would rather face her parents later then now in her opinion. She looked back one more time then bolted up the stairs and ran into her room, closed the door behind her slowly so it made no noise. She plopped onto her bed and groaned.
"Usually this never happens…..But no! My stupid principle thinks every kid is bad at this age and expects this…Why me?" Then her phone rang from beside her. She cocked her head and looked at the I.D number. She cringed at the phone number.
"Hello…..?" She asked in an innocent voice.
"Hello honey, I would like you to come down the stairs. We need to talk." Orihime, her mother, said though the phone then hung up. She silently screamed into her pillow and then took a deep breath.
"Common Mizuki! You can do this! You did nothing wrong." Mizuki said walking out of her bedroom and carefully walking down the stairs. Each step she took she swore she heard a 'thump thump' noise.
"Shut up heart! You're beating too fast." She scolded herself. When she reached the bottom she walked into a little living room. Orihime was sitting on the couch and Ulquiorra stood behind her. Ayumi sat on the couch opposite of Orihime. Ayumi always supported her in bad times, so this made Mizuki feel a bit better. She hesitantly walked into the room and sat really close to Ayumi. Orihime looked her daughter in the eye, showing a slight bit amusement on her face.
"I got a call from you principle today, he said you showed PDA on school grounds." Mizuki angrily stood up.
"How dare he blame me for such nonsense! I did nothing of the sort!" She crossed her arms and pouted.
"Calm down Mizuki."
Ulquiorra walked over to Mizuki and put a hand on her shoulder.
"We don't believe you would do such idiotic things. If you wanted to, you wouldn't be so stupid as to do it right where people can see you," Mizuki relaxed a bit.
"Your principle said you needed to see a therapist. Your mother almost hung up the phone right then and run straight to you school to kill him with her own hands." He joked, Orihime laughed and walked over to her daughter, "So tell me about it, by the way. Wa- " Orihime smirked as Mizuki cringed.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!" Mizuki said putting her hand over Orihime's mouth stopping her from saying anything else. Ayumi burst out laughing, clutching her stomach.
"Ugh, mom your so weird!" Orihime threw her hands up in mock-hurt.
They all settled and sat down and Mizuki told her parents all about her new day in middle school and how some of her teachers, such as her English teacher, couldn't spell. Every time she corrected her spelling, her teacher would get mad and try to throw a marker at her.
"Really?" Ulquiorra rose an eyebrow, and knowing Ulquiorra was going to do something (possibly) illegal Ayumi jumped in.
"Yeah but don't go and talk to her because that will make her want to try her best to flunk Mizuki," Then they all heard the door knock at the door. Ulquiorra walked over and opened it, almost causing Grimmjow to almost punch Ulquiorra in the face.
"Grimmjow stop banging at my door please. If you break it you're getting me a new one." Ulquiorra glared at him and he glared back.
"Boy's enough." Orihime laughed and Mizuki smiled.
"Hey, Grimmjow!" She beamed
"I want to talk to all of you. Now," He whispered something in Ulquiorra's ear. Ulquiorra nodded.
"Orihime, Neliel and Grimmjow want to talk to us now," He said and looked at Mizuki.
"Why don't you go play with Makoto, Mizuki?"
"What's wrong?" Mizuki started to get nervous. Orihime and Ulquiorra exchanged looks and said nothing.
Ayumi fiddled with her fingers, "Halibel, Starrk, Ichigo, and Rukia should be here soon."
"Why are you not saying anything? You're acting suspicious."
Orihime gave a wide, fake smile, "What? It's just that us adults want to hang out."
Mizuki's finally snapped, "I DON'T WANT TO BE KEPT IN THE DARK ANYMORE!"
"Mizuki…" Orihime trailed away. We tried to avoid this day. Mizuki fumed.
"What are you hiding from me, Fuyu, Makoto, and Chizu?" Grimmjow sighed.
"We can't tell you yet hun. Later maybe, it's for the best." Mizuki's eyes shook with anger.
"So be it then. I told you all secrets….. If you don't tell me anything. Then fine….But there is one secret I have been keeping from you….And I'm not going to tell it!" Mizuki smugly said looking for any kind of reaction. When she didn't get one she just slightly shrugged and turned to Makoto.
"Common Makoto… Let's go up in my room and wait for the others…." She looked up at him with a blank stare. He saw the sadness in her eyes, she wanted to cry or react but couldn't….
"Alright Mizuki, let's go to your room," he didn't argue going into her room like he usually does. Being best friends, he needs to find out that secret and what's really going on, like his parents secret. He followed her into the room and closed the door. She locked the door nice and good.
"You want to know my secret don't you?" Mizuki asked hopping onto her bed and laying on her side.
He nodded, "Yeah I do…"
Mizuki smiled, "Just wait till Fuyu and Chizu come, then I'll tell you.
Grimmjow, Neliel, Orihime, and Ulquiorra took a seat.
"When is Halibel and Starrk getting here?" Orihime asked.
"Right….Now," Grimmjow predicted, and then there was a knock at the door. Grimmjow gave a smug smile and crossed his arms. Ulquiorra closed his eyes in annoyance. Arrogant Bastard. Orihime got up again to answer it.
"Hello Halibel, Starrk, Rukia, and Ichigo. Come in," Orihime greeted. They both walked inside and Starrk shut the door behind him. Orihime smiled at the younger ones.
"Hi, there you two. Why don't you and Chizu go into Mizuki's room. She's probably won't answer me since we all got into a fight…" Orihime said, her eyes twinkled with sadness. Chizu and Fuyu exchanged glances.
"And if you find out her secret..Well….tell us please….we would like to know what's going on with her…" Orihime whispered to them. Chizu sighed.
"Mrs. Orihime we love you so much but, we simply can't tell you because that would be untrustworthy of us as her friends. Please trust Mizuki. She is a really good person and if she is hiding something from you, there must be a good explanation on why she is. If we see anything unusual or might be life threatening then we will tell immediately. " Orihime chuckled.
"How did I know you would say that. You guys remind me of when I was in school." They walked to Mizuki's room and knocked.
"Who is it?" Mizuki asked quietly.
"It's Fuyu and Chizu can we come in?" Then the door started to jiggle then it unlocked. A pale and sad looking Mizuki greeted them.
"Come in," She glanced down the hallway.
"We need to discuss something," She said the last part in a whisper. They nodded and walked inside the white colored room.
