A/N: Spring break is turning out to be so boring. What makes it worse is that my friends keep waking me up at ten o'clock when I want to wake up at three o'clock. I like to get a lot of rest. Anyways, this is chapter 7. Rangiku is going to be very devious :D. BTW, I changed something on chapter 1, so you should go over it so you won't be confused.

Disclaimer: I do not own bleach only Hitomi and her zanpaktou.

Darkness and Light

Chapter 7- Marking Rangiku's Grave

Hitomi's POV:

"Lady Hitomi, it seems that you are able to walk now, and pretty soon you'll be able to go back to work" the nurse said writing something down on a clip board.

I was getting a check up from a 4th squad nurse. I honestly thought this was pointless because I'm pretty sure I can tell if I can walk. I was also getting pissed off because I was getting told things about my condition that I already knew. No wonder those 11th squad members got so mad!

"Really, so, am I allowed to leave the room from now on?"

I said trying not to sound pissed.

She stopped writing stuff and looked at me with a smile.

"That's right, but you have to have our permission first"

"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow" she left the room.

I sighed. The real reason I was pissed off was because of what happened a few days ago.

Flashback…

"Hitomi, what happened between you and captain Kuchiki anyways?"

Rangiku visited me this time. I asked her smuggle me another cookie. I was happily munching on it like there was no tomorrow.

I looked up from my cookie. "What do you mean?"

"Well, if you were best friends with him before, then why aren't you best friends with him now?"

There was a moment of silence.

"Well, while I became a part of the stealth force and he became part of squad six, we had a lot of duties and responsibilities that we barely had time to hang out anymore. Then, when I became third seat in squad 10 and he became Captain of squad 6. We decided something."

"What did you decide on?"

"Well, we both agreed that we would have even more responsibilities and that we would just maintain a personal relationship"

"So that's what happened!"

"Why do you suddenly take interest in my personal life?"

"Nothing really, just needed something to work with"

My eyes widened.

"What!"

Her eyes widened realizing what she just said. She was a horrible liar.

"Oops! Nothing, it's nothing"

"Rangiku"

"It's nothing, really"

End of flashback…

I sighed. Rangiku loved to play matchmaker. When she thinks two people should be together, she goes all out. I am so dead.

"Gah! Why did I tell her all that!" I yelled at myself.

There was a knock at the door.

"Come in!"

It was Captain Kuchiki. He visited me daily to make sure that I wasn't lonely. It was really sweet of him.

I smiled. "Hi Captain! Guess what?"

"What?" He said in his monotone voice.

"I can walk now!"

"Come on Captain, you promised!"

He looked at me for a second to make sure I wasn't lying and showed a sign of defeat. "I keep my promises. I'll meet you in front of the manor" he walked off probably asking the nurse if I can leave the room.

"Yaaay!" I jumped out of bed. I could finally get some fresh air.

I opened my closet. My eyes widened.

"RANGIKU!"

You are so dead Rangiku!

Cliffie! Don't worry, I already posted chapter 8! fall break is boring.
