Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach

A/N: Oh my gosh! It's almost been two months. I'm so sorry for not updating! I had writers block. Everytime I would open my notebook to write this chapter, my mind would go blank.

Many thanks to my readers and reviewers: SukiAmaya, Shadow Pain, Denidene, tealeyedmoon69, Rukia Martinez, and anon reviewer Hitsugaya echan (I would but only if I knew Indonesian. Sorry.)


'thinking'

"talking"


"Rukia!" Toshiro called and was about to run after her, but Hinamori grabbed his arm. "Let go!" he said to her.

"But," Hinamori got tears in her eyes. "This is supposed to be our date!" she whined. "Rukia isn't important!"

Toshiro narrowed his eyes at her. "Rukia is important to me, more important than you." he said as he ran after Rukia and left Hinamori.

'Damn' Toshiro cursed in his head. How was he supposed to find Rukia in a crowed festival? Toshiro ran to a stand where an old man was selling rice balls. "Have you seen a girl who's this tall? With purple eyes?" he asked him.

"Hmm," the old man thought. "Oh yes, she was crying and was running towards the meadow over there." he pointed to a forest.

"Thanks!" Toshiro ran to the meadow and it started raining. When he got to the meadow, his heart broke into pieces. Rukia was sitting on the grass with her knees pulled to her chest, her tears falling and she looked very fragile. He walked to where he stood in front of Rukia. "Rukia." he said softly.

Rukia looked up at him. Toshiro put his hand out for her and Rukia put her hand in his and he helped her get up. Once she was standing up, he pulled her into a hug. He then looked at her face and with his thumb, wiped away the tears. "Please don't cry, it breaks my heart." he said softly.

Rukia nodded. "Where's Hinamori?" she asked.

Toshiro shrugged. "I don't know, I needed to make sure you're okay."

Rukia looked confused. "But I thought you liked Hinamori?"

"What made you think that?" Then he add shyly. "I like you."

Rukia's eyes widen, then she smiled. "Really?" she blushed. "I...I like you, too." Toshiro smiled at her and he leaned in and kissed her. Rukia wrapped her hands around his neck and kissed him back. They stopped when they need air.

Their foreheads were touching when Toshiro said. "I better get you home or else you'll get sick." He took her hand in his and they left the meadow.


Achoo!

Toshiro sneezed and he got a tissue. Granny came walking in his room with a cheerful and not to mention, healthy, unsick Rukia. "Aw, did my Fluffy get sick?" Rukia teased once Granny was out of the room.

Toshiro glared at her. "Shut up." he said as he crossed his arms across his chest.

"Your Granny told me you're not drinking your medicine." Rukia said as she put her hands on her hips.

Toshiro moved his head to the side. "It taste gross." he complained.

Rukia rolled her eyes. "Stop being a baby and drink it!"

"No."

"Please, Toshiro?" Rukia asked with a pout and made her eyes big.

Toshiro sighed, "Fine." He took the medicine and when he drank it, he made a disgusted face.

"You'll thank me when you get better." Rukia said as she sat down on his bed.

"You know," Toshiro spoke with a smirk. "I have an idea on how I can thank you." he said as he leaned closer to Rukia.

Rukia leaned closer to him. "Really? And how?" she asked.

Their lips were a couple centimeters apart when Granny walked in with a tray that had tea and sandwhiches. "Tea?" she asked oblivious that Rukia and Toshiro were about to kiss.

Rukia's face was red. "Yes, thank you." she said to Granny. Granny smiled at her and walked out of the room.

"She seems to like you over." Toshiro noted as he bit into a sandwhich.

"I like coming over." Rukia said. "I like it here." The rest of their Sunday evening they talked about random stuff.


"Did you hear? Hitsugaya and Kuchiki are an item."

"Hitsugaya and Kuchiki? Together?"

"I even heard that Hitsugaya made Hinamori cry."

"No way!"

"Hmm, seems the news already spread." Rukia said as she walked in the school with Toshiro.

"Sure did." said Hitsugaya "But who cares."

Rukia smiled at him and they made their way to their class. When they got in, something unexpected happened.


A/N:

Once again, I'm very sorry for not updating and that this chapter was short. I'll try and get the next chapter up a lot faster than I did with this one.
