Pairings- IchigoxRukia UlquiorraxOrihime Grimmjowx? (you have to read and find out later and it wont be a OC)
It seemed to be a normal day to Ichigo. He woke up, fought off his dad. Went to breakfast then headed to school with his newly appointed girlfriend Rukia.
They started dating after the war but Byakuya still denies that they have any relationship at all because he doesn't want the Kuchiki family to look bad. Luckily the Soul Society has all the Captains so busy with cleaning up Aizens mess that he hasn't had time to interfered with their relationship.
They were trying to get to the step in their relationship where they could hold hands as they walked to school but sadly it still felt weird so they just stuck to walking side by side and talked.
Once they arrived at school, everything was the same. Keigo tried to jump Ichigo with tears in his eyes while saying something like "Ichigo how could you get a girlfriend before me" but Ichigo just slammed his foot in his face which shut him up then he took his seat after greeting some of his friends.
Rukia talked to Orihime along with some girls while Ishida and Chad quietly sat in their seats while waiting for the teacher to enter the classroom.
After a few minutes she entered and class started. Yes it was a normal day…..Wrong.
Soon after class started the teacher stopped the lesson after she received a email from the principal.
"Okay quiet down class" she said trying to get everyone's attention. "It seems like we have some new students today"
Ichigo could hear people whispering in the class.
"oh I hope it's a hot girl"
"please its probably some nerdy loser"
"you never know, it could be a hot nerdy girl"
"Dude you have weird taste"
The whispering stopped as the classroom door swung open with a loud noise that caught the attention of the whole class.
The new students walked in with a mysterious aura and stood before the class.
The first new student appeared to be a blue haired, blue eyed punk that looked like he killed his first victim when he was 10. He was tall and muscular with a pissed off look that made even some of the strongest thugs in the class afraid of what he may do if someone piss him off.
The next student was a female with long greenish hair that went down to her mid back and a innocent look on her face. She seemed to slide into the class with grace and joy as if being at school was a blessing for her.
The last student to enter was a male with pale skin and a unemotional face along with beautiful green eyes. Most guys in the class marked him as a emo at first sight but despite the loud whispering, he didn't seem to care for what they had to say.
'I m-must be going crazy' Ichigo thought as he stared at them with wide eyes.
Ishida and Chad remained quiet even though they were shocked.
Despite Ichigo and the gangs reaction, Orihime was the one that was most shocked to see them.
Even though she tried not to, she couldn't stop the tears from coming. Orihime jumped out of her seat and ran out of the class followed by Ulquiorra who chased her out of the class and down the hall.
Ichigo stood up to go after her too, but he found that his path to the door was blocked by a grinning Grimmjow.
"Get out of my way" Ichigo demanded with warning in his voice.
Grimmjow just laughed his warning off. "You've had your chance now let Ulquiorra handle it"
"wait do you guys know each other" Mizuiro asked them.
"No of coarse not" Rukia said as she stood up and went over to Ichigos side. "we're just going to greet the new students" she finish as her and Ichigo dragged Grimmjow and Nel out of the classroom to have a 'talk'.
"excuse me but I have to go to the bathroom" Ishida told the teacher as he rushed out before hearing her answer then Chad stood up.
"let me guess, Bathroom?" the teacher asked him as he nodded his head and ran out to the rest of them to get the story on what's happening.
"Get talking" Ichigo said to Grimmjows face.
Grimmjow picked Ichigo up easily by his shirt collar. "Don't tempt me into driving my fist into your face"
Nel quickly pulled Ichigo free of Grimmjows grasp before a serious fight started. Nel then turned to Ichigo and begin to explain.
"well it happened like this" she said as she explained the whole story in more detail then Ichigo would have liked but at least now he know who to blame for his new headache.
'I'm going to beat Urahara till he pisses blood' Ichigo thought with rage.
"So you guys are on our side now" Ishida asked while pushing up his glasses which was his trade mark.
Before Nel could say yes, Grimmjow intervened with a sly grin. "Fuck no were not on your side" Grimmjow laughed "Why the fuck would we waste time helping you fuckers"
"What was that" Ichigo was ready to take Grimmjow here and now if it wasn't for Nel getting in his way once again.
"Please don't listen to him, our orders were to assist you with killing hollows" Nel said while standing in between the two hot heads.
"This is dumb" Rukia said pulling Ichigo back. "we shouldn't be fighting each other and someone should go see if Orihimes okay"
"Like I said, Ulquiorra can handle it" Grimmjow stated coldly, just daring Ichigo to say something back which of coarse he does.
"Ulquiorra is the reason she started crying" Ichigo growled.
Grimmjow was about to say something back then the fist were going to fly but luckily, Rukia's phone went off which meant hollow killing time.
"Ichigo there's a hollow" she said.
"the hell with Kurosaki" Grimmjow sneered "this one is mine"
"says who" Ichigo sneered back as they were in each others face again.
"Says me shithead" Grimmjow growled.
"we don't have time for this" Ishida said as Ichigo and Grimmjow continued their useless name calling.
"Look you guys just go back and I'll get the hollow" Ichigo growled as he broke eye contact with Grimmjow and rushed out with Rukia to change into his shinigami form while Grimmjow left the room to find his little panther that they left behind so he could get there before Ichigo.
"How did it turn out like this" Ishida sighed as he turned to see who all was left. Chad and him were the only ones in the room. "wasn't there another women here"
Chad shrugged "not sure but Ichigo has this taken care of and I'm sure Orihime just needs some time alone so we should get back to class" Chad then made his way to the class.
"actually I have somewhere to go" Ishida lied as he left Chad in search of Orihime.
'the others may have not noticed the pain she's been in lately but I have and there's no way that I'm going to let her cry alone' Ishida thought as he looked around the school grounds for her.
Somewhere on school grounds
Orihime sat crying against the closes tree she could get to with all the tears interfering with her vision. She then curled up to the tree with her legs raised and begin to cry into her knees.
She couldn't figure out why she was crying. She wasn't afraid of any of them, not even Grimmjow because despite his attitude she know he wasn't going to hurt her not to mention that he saved her life.
She wasn't afraid but after seeing Ulquiorra it reminded her of how much she really missed him. Its like a dream come true yet she couldn't even face it.
"Hey, do you mind if I sit"
She looked up and realized the voice belonged to the one person she never thought she would see again. Ulquiorra.
"u-ummm I-its o-okay" she stuttered as she moved over slightly.
The empty spot that she left was soon replaced with Ulquiorra as he slowly sat down fore he was afraid that any sudden movements would scare her.
They both stared forward to the flowers without looking to one another but luckily, Orihime was able to stop her tears as she dried her face but it was still obvious that she had been crying.
"Do you hate me" Ulquiorra asked her, not knowing if he really wanted to know the answer.
"N-No" Orihime answered as she played with the tips of her hair.
"Then are you afraid-"
Orihime cut him off as she turned and wrapped her arms around him while she cried into his shoulder which left him speechless.
Ulquiorra froze then when his mind started to process what was happening he returned her affection as he wrapped his arms around her protectively while patting her back and telling her its okay and that he wont leave.
Ulquiorra had no clue about what she really felt or if she was just using him to cry on but he was happy to hear that she wasn't afraid of him because if she was then he wouldn't know what to do.
He held her tighter as he smelled her irresistible aroma. Her tears were like a endless river but he hanged on to her until she was satisfied. If he could freeze time, now would be the time that he would want to freeze it because he couldn't remember the last time he felt so warm which was probably never.
But unknown to both of them, Ishida stood only 20 feet away and watched with shock at their affection then he turned around and headed to class not bothering to tell them that he just saw what happened because in truth, he's not even sure what he just saw.
'I think I get it now but I really hope that Orihime knows what she is doing' Ishida thought as he planned what he would tell the teacher about him taking so long while going to the bathroom.
The spot where the hollow was spotted
Grimmjow rushed over after finding the panther and taking the soul candy out and now he was ready and in his arrancar form.
Ichigo arrived at about the same time with Rukia in tow as he welded his sword.
They both looked around but there appeared to be no hollow.
"Where the hell is it Kurosaki" Grimmjow yelled
"How the hell would I know" Ichigo growled back as him and Grimmjow had a glaring contest.
"Hey guys look what I found"
All three warriors looked down to the ground and saw Nel slurping some ice cream.
"You guys need to try this its really good" she shouted as she licked off some more of her ice cream.
"Nel there's a hollow around here so its dangerous" Ichigo screamed to her.
"oh are you guys talking about the hollow I killed a while ago" she said back.
Grimmjows and Ichigos faces froze with shock. "WHAT!!!" they said in union.
"Yea I killed it while you two where arguing about who gets to kill it"
Rukia sighed "well at least no one got hurt"
"Someone's about to get hurt" Grimmjow and Ichigo yelled at the same time as they were ready to rip each other apart.
"That's enough, this is childish Ichigo" Rukia yelled.
Ichigo then turned around with his shoulders down and walked to her.
"b-but he started it" Ichigo said childishly.
"I don't care, I'm finishing it" Rukia yelled as she dragged him by the ear much like a mother would.
Grimmjow laughed at Ichigo as he was pulled. "you are so whipped"
"Hey Kitty-chan I got you a little mouse toy at a store" Nel yelled up to Grimmjow who growled back in response.
"For the last time I'm not Kitty-chan!"
"Wait up you blue haired freak" yelled the panther who now was using Grimmjows gigai.
The panther stopped as he breathed heavily. "w-why w-were you in s-such a hurry" he breathed out as he composed himself and slightly stuck out his chest trying to look tough. "not that I couldn't catch you or anything"
Grimmjow decided to forget what Nel said and move on. "yea yea whatever" he answer as he glided over to the panther and changed back to his gigai while the panther was now in his stuffed animal form.
"now get lost" Grimmjow growled.
"oh I see how it is" the Panther growled back. "just use me then throw me away"
"you got a problem" Grimmjow now got close so the stuffed animal could see the death in his eyes which cause the panther to run as fast as his little stuffed legs would let him.
"your so good with animals Kitty-chan" Nel said as she finished her ice cream.
Grimmjow showed her his best glare. "are you high or something"
Nel cocked her head sideways. "what do you mean by high" she asked innocently.
Grimmjow gave up on scaring her with the glare fore she was just to dumb to realized his intent.
Grimmjow started to walk back but then some realization hit him. He stopped and looked towards Nel. "I couldn't help but notice you didn't get me a ice cream"
"oh its really good, we should forget about that dumb school and just eat ice cream all day" she squealed with delight.
"is it really that good" Grimmjow asked her.
"Come and see for yourself" she told him as she dragged him to the place where she bought it.
Grimmjow scratched his head. "Well why not, if I have to look at Kurosaki's face one more time today then I'm not going to hold back"
"Yay then to the Ice cream place it is" Nel carried him off to the store.
The School Classroom
Ishida walked back in the room slowly and took his seat.
"Where's Orihime" Tatsuki demanded as she slammed her hand on Ishida's desk.
Ishida just pushed up his glasses and didn't bother to look at her. "She's fine so don't worry"
"Fine my ass" Tatsuki said back rudely "Some new students appear then Orihime leaves the room crying for no reason and you so called friends just say she's fine"
"I already found Orihime and she is fine, she just needs a little time to think things though" Ishida stated.
"What ever happened to the new guys" Keigo said from the back of the room. "I mean they were only in here for a few seconds before one ran out then Ichigo dragged the others away"
Then the whispering started in the crowed.
"I bet Ichigo beat them up"
"Yea I heard that he's in a gang and that's why he misses school so much"
"I don't know that blue haired guy looked scary"
"Ichigo is probably trying to get them into his gang"
"did you see the female new student"
"Yea she was kinda cute"
"I know but I wish she looked more nerdy"
"dude for the last time, you have weird taste"
The whispering ended as Ichigo entered the room followed by Rukia.
Ichigo walked past the teachers desk without an explanation fore at the moment he was beyond pissed.
'Damn Grimmjow, thinks he can do whatever he wants' he thought as he sat in his seat which caused a loud thud.
Ichigo looked so angry that normally no one would dare approach him but Tatsuki wasn't afraid of her childhood friend as she not only approached him but picked him up by his shirt.
"Who the hell are those guys and why did Orihime run out of the room crying" She yelled in his face.
Ichigo remained silent as he matched her glare with a more fierce one.
Rukia decided it was best to stop all this now. She got out of her chair and grabbed Tatsuki's shoulder.
"I would prefer it if you would please not accuse my boyfriend over things he doesn't know about" she stated coldly.
All the boys in the class now watched on as it appeared like a cat fight was going to start while the girls in the class just sat back and gossiped.
Tatsuki and Rukia seem to have a conversation with their eyes as the hot headed girl released Ichigo who just fell back in his chair and made another thud noise.
Tatsuki then returned to her seat and once Rukia made sure that Ichigo was okay she returned to her seat.
Okay now lets go back to Orihime and Ulquiorra
Orihime finished her crying and now just held on to him while he lightly rubbed her back. Orihime had no idea that he could be this gentle.
Orihime released him slightly so she could look into his green eyes as he stared back at her.
"I'm sorry Ulquiorra, I'm sure that I was a bother to you just now and I got tears all over your school uniform-"
Ulquiorra silenced her with his hand as he lightly tapped it to her lips.
"Please don't concern yourself over such a useless matter" he said softly as if his voice would break her if he spoke to loudly.
Orihime looked his face over then her eyes set on his lips which caused her to blush madly and look away.
"We should p-probably get back" She said standing up.
Once she was gone, Ulquiorra felt cold without her touch. He wanted to pull her down into his lap and hold her longer but he held himself back.
Ulquiorra stood up beside her. "I think it would be best if you relaxed today" he told her.
Orihime put her hand to her chin. "hmm you think so" she then clapped her hands together as an idea came to her head. "ah I know what we should do"
She grabbed his arm and pulled him away from the school.
"where are we going" Ulquiorra asked her.
"I'm going to give you a tour of the town" she told him with excitement. "I'm guessing that you haven't been here to long"
"No Urahara just brought us here yesterday" he answered. "but don't you want to know how I got here and why I don't have my mask anymore"
Orihime shook her head as she carried him along by his arm. "All that matters is that you're here so lets have some fun"
Orihime carried him into a crowed area where people of all sorts just came back and forth without seemingly a care in the world.
"where are you taking me" he asked her as they pushed though the crowed.
"oh theirs this really nice ice cream store that I want to go to" she answered cheerfully.
Ulquiorra didn't protest because if eating this so called ice cream made her happy then he would go through hell to get it for her.
I know its not that long but I'm going to end it here and thanks for reading. Please R&R also it may seem like it but this isn't Ichigo bashing or anything its just that he doesn't trust them because they use to be his enemy but after a while, their relationship may change.
