Another chapter! Woot! I don't own bleach, just my OC! Commenting, good or bad, is always appreciated! Hope you like it!
It had been two weeks since I started training with Urahara, and I still hadn't forgiven my brother. It turned out that Rukia, Renji, and the idiot I call my twin were soul reapers. Orihime and Sado were humans with crazy powers, and Grimmjow said that his dead parents were soul reapers. No matter how hard anyone tried though, we couldn't figure out what in the hell I was. My powers were getting stronger every day, and by now I could beat Urahara in a fight.
"Miss. Kurosaki!" my teacher's annoying voice rang, snapping me from my thoughts.
"What have I done now?" a few students laughed at me.
She glared down at me, and I could feel my blood boil. No one looks down at me. "It's what you haven't done, Miss. Kurosaki."
"And what's that?"
"You haven't been paying attention at all!" she snapped.
My breathing got heavier and my fists clenched. "I'm just gonna ace the stupid tests anyway!"
"Detention!" my mouth dropped open. "Do not raise your voice with me young lady."
She started walking to the front of the room. "At least I'm young." I mumbled. Grimmjow started laughing, along with anyone who could hear me.
"Did you say something, Tora?!"
I glanced up at her lazily and gave her a sickly sweet smile. "I wouldn't dream of it."
After the monster of a woman got back to teaching, I dozed off.
"Oy! Tora!" I shook my head.
"Five more minutes."
I heard Renji laugh and say, "You're gonna have to carry her to the roof man." Ichigo growled something about not wanting him to touch me.
I was then picked up from my seat bridal style. Whoever's carrying me is really warm. And soft. Like a kitten. I smiled and snuggled in to the person.
I was lay down gently on what was obviously the roof. After a couple of minutes, I rubbed my eyes and sat up.
"Hey sleeping beauty." Renji cooed mockingly.
"Shut up." I said tiredly.
He smirked. "Make me."
I considered my options for a minute, looking as though I was in deep thought. Then, out of nowhere, I got up and punched him in the face. He fell back in surprise, clutching his nose.
"I said shut up."
I sat down and started eating. Rukia started to giggle, and we all looked at her in confusion.
"You should've seen Grimmjow's face w-w-when..." she started laughing again. "T-t-Tora! She put her face in his c-ch-chest! His face was redder than Renji's hair!" she broke down clutching her sides.
I looked over at Grimmjow and saw the light dusting of pink across his cheeks.
"Would you guys please stop comparing people's faces to my hair." Renji growled. I smiled at the blood trickling down his face from my punch. The rest of lunch consisted of Grimmjow telling people to shut up, Orihime and Tastuki laughing, and me ignoring my brother.
"Tora-chan!" I turned around to see Orihime and Tatsuki running after me. Grimmjow, Ichigo, and Renji were walking behind them. Grimmjow and Ichigo were arguing as usual.
"Sup Hime?"
"You don't have any practice tonight do you?" she asked, panting from running after me.
"How'd she get out of detention..." Renji mumbled from behind her.
I thought for a moment. "Nah, why?"
She was beaming at me. "Let's all go to the arcade and we can get ice-cream, and sweets, and then we ca-" Tatsuki covered Orihime's mouth.
"Sure. I'd love to go with you Hime." I laughed. She grinned and practically dragged me and Tatsuki to the arcade.
We played tons of games and I won Orihime a stuffed bunny, which she wouldn't stop squealing about.
"That one Tora-chan!" she yelped, pointing at Dance Dance Revolution.
"Oh yeah! Play that one Tora!" Tatsuki grinned. I blushed and shook my head furiously. "Aw but why not?"
"You know damn well why not Tatsuki!"
"What? Are you not good at that one?" Grimmjow asked from behind us. I think my face is literally on fire.
Hime giggled and said, "Nope! Tora-chan is really, really good at it."
"Alright then." I was then shoved by my friends onto the machine, and it started.
Shit. Don't play Tora. Don't. Buuuuttt...ugh fine! I started to dance to the beat of the music, never missing a step of the game. I twirled around, and hit every move.
"Damn it Tatsuki! You picked the most inappropriate one! And on purpose!" I yelled as I swung my hips back and forth. I growled as I slid into the next step which was even worse. Finally, the song was over. High score again. Shocker.
I turned to see almost everyone in the arcade looking at me. My face turned bright red and I grabbed Tastuki and Orihime. I pulled them quickly out of the arcade and ran down the street. The boys came running out after us.
"C'mon Hime," I panted. "Let's get ice-cream." We walked into the shop and got our ice-cream. Hime pulled us to a table, and we sat and ate.
"That was incredible!" Grimmjow said.
"Shut up."
He frowned at me. "I don't understand. What's wrong?"
"She gets embarrassed in front of people easily." Ichigo answered for me.
Orihime smiled and hugged me with one arm. "You are so good at stuff like that Tora-chan!"
I rolled my eyes. "Whatever. What's next Hime?"
She grinned and grabbed my hand, sprinting in to another shop. We were quickly followed by the rest of our group. I started shaking my head.
"Nope. No way. Hime this is a bathing suit store." she was nodding enthusiastically.
Ichigo shrugged. "I could use a new bathing suit."
Grimmjow looked at Renji and asked what a bathing suit was. Renji sighed and pulled him over to get a suit. Hime and Tastuki looked through the racks for suits. I sighed and started looking too.
"How bout this one?" I held up a blue one-piece. Hime stuck out her tongue.
"How bout you go sit over there, and I'll pick suits for you to try."
Whatever. At least I don't have to do any work.
After a few minutes the boys came over to the dressing rooms. Grimmjow was the first one out, and my eyes nearly popped out of my head. Unholy god! Six pack! Tan!
Hime walked up behind me and giggled, "Why Tora-chan, you're drooling." my head snapped to look at her, and I pressed a hand to my mouth.
"Only joking." she winked. "Looks nice Grimmjow-san. Tora definitely lik-" I slapped my hand over her mouth.
She smiled and handed me an enormous pile of bathing suits. I groaned and walked into the dressing room. I looked through them and immediately got rid of the triangle bikinis. Orihime had only gotten bikinis for me to try. I sighed and slid into a black bikini with a red rose across the left cup.
I stepped out of the dressing room to show her and Tastuki, but I found that the boys were there too. I started to blush madly when Grimmjow looked at me.
"Omigosh! Tora-chan it looks so good!" Orihime fawned. Tastuki nodded in agreement.
Renji was blushing and Ichigo was shaking his head no.
"Damn." Grimmjow breathed.
"Guess you're getting that one Tora." Tastuki smirked.
Grimmjow and I were walking home while Ichigo was dragging his feet behind us. Grimmjow walked me up to the door of our house and stopped to look at me. He rubbed the back of his neck and smiled at me almost shyly. I could've sworn he was blushing.
"Well...I'll uh...see you later I guess."
"Yup..." I bounced on the balls of my feet. He nodded and walked to his house.
