DISCLAIMER: DON'T OWN BLEACH. OR THE CHARACTERS.

Orihime sees her lover's mouth move but cannot hear what he was saying. She looked down at her chest to see the blood spilling out. "It hit me, it hit my heart, I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die here and I didn't do all the things I planned to do."

She felt her body begin to fall then land on something soft. She looks up to see Ichigo yelling at her but she couldn't hear him. "Kurosaki kun…I'm sorry," she felt her eyes go heavy and her body numb. She heard the ringing noises around her die out and a voice inside her whispering to her, "Tell him the truth about your feelings."

She gathered all her strength and opened her mouth. "Kurosaki kun…I…I really love you," Orihime wasn't sure if she said it out loud because Ichigo's expression didn't change. She felt a warm feeling on her face and opened her eyes to see a bright light in front of her. She looks around to see she was alone.

She reaches out to the light when a voice calls out to her. "Orihime it is okay you can come now." The voice sounded so welcoming suddenly the bright light flashes causing Orihime to close her eyes. She opens them to find a beautiful scene of a valley of endless green grass and a beautiful river with lots of different color flowers and animals flocking about.

"Where am I?" she wonders to herself. "Inoue Orihime please come have a seat," Orihime turns around to see a beautiful woman sitting down in front of a picnic setting. Orihime takes a seat in front of her and gazes at all the wonderful food.

She looks up to the woman wanting to ask a billion questions. "By the look of it you have a lot of questions you want answered but please eat first then we will talk You must be extremely tired from your journey." Orihime ate in silence often looking up at the beautiful woman whose smile made the sun shine on a cloudy day.

"Umm Miss am I dead?" Orihime asks. The woman nods, "Yes, you are but do give up someone important to you doesn't want you to die" she smiles. "I feel like I know you?" Orihime whispers. The woman smiles, "Yes you do know me…somewhat. I am Kurosaki Masaki or you might know me as Ichigo's mom." Orihime gasped almost dropping the food in her hands to fall.

"It's okay sweetie" Masaki reassures her placing her hand on her head, "she is so beautiful, nice and warm" Orihime thought to herself. "So I have died, I am glad I am not alone." Masaki shook her head in disagreement, "You wont be here for long, you aren't meant to stay here but he will bring you back home" she smiles. Orihime is confused, "Who?"

Masaki giggles, "Silly my son of course, Kurosaki Ichigo." Orihime's eyes widen in shock and her body begins to tremble, "Wha…what? Why?" Masaki lets out another stronger longer laugh, "Don't tell me you don't know…Ichigo loves you." That comment made the items in her hands drop and a hot red blush creep on her face.

"Orihime you have grown since the last time I saw you." Orihime was still hiding her face as she answered, "I don't remember seeing you before" she felt guilty of saying that. "You were so little it was the first time Ichigo and you met in this lifetime." Orihime looked at her utterly confused, "this lifetime?" "Since we have some time let me show you" Masaki grabs Orihime's hand and the valley scene around them starts to disappear.
