Grimmjow's P.O.V
I was standing at the top of the staircase taking in the scent that was coming from the bathroom. It smelt like vanilla and Harley's own aroma. I still couldn't figure out what she smelt like, it was like she had her own kind of scent mix in with all the other smells on her. But her personal aroma was more intoxicating than the other smells and it always drew me to her. "Grimmjow don't do it," my panther growled, "If you do she might never give you the chance to explain anything, let alone talk to her anymore."
"Damnit don't you think I don't know that," I snapped. "I-I-I just can't help it. Her scent, her aroma it's so god damn intoxicating and I've been fighting it since I met her. I don't know how much longer I can keep holding back."
"I know Grimmjow, but if you don't want to lose her because you forced yourself on her then you better start fighting it harder," my panther said. That's when I noticed that I wasn't the only one fighting off her scent, he was as well. I growled to myself lowly, it was getting harder to fight it off especially when I can hear her moving around in the water. I closed my eyes as the images kept playing in my head of her naked with water running off of her body. I could feel myself tense as I fought off those images of me barging in there and taking her right there.
"Damnit" I cursed to myself. I honestly don't know how much more of this I can take.
"Grimmjow what are you doing?" my eyes snapped opened to see Harley standing in front of me. I couldn't help but notice her hair dripping from being wet it was dripping down to her half exposed chest. My eyes started to roam her body as I noticed she was only in a towel, a towel that stopped at her mid-upper thighs. "Grimmjow I asked you a question" Harley said. I noticed the irritation in her voice. I snapped out of the trance that I was in and looked her in the eyes.
Harley's P.O.V
I was standing there waiting for Grimmjow to answer my question. When he looked into my eyes though I noticed the lust in them, but I also noticed that he was trying to fight off that lust that he was feeling. "Grimmjow" I said. I was getting frustrated that he wasn't answering my question. Grimmjow started to walk towards me he looked like he was in a trance or something. I started to walk backwards away from him until my back hit the wall behind me. I gripped my towel tight just in case he tried to rip it off or something. Grimmjow continued to walk towards me until he was right on top of me. Our bodies were touching and he was looking down at me. He leaned his head towards mine until our lips touched briefly.
"Harley" Grimmjow mumbled against my lips. My body was frozen, I couldn't speak and I couldn't move. His scent filled my nose as I breathed and each time I took in his scent it got stronger and stronger. I don't know how much more of his scent I could take without snapping. His touch was also sending a flow of electricity threw me. It was almost like I was in a trance myself. I wanted him to kiss me to, no actually I think I needed him to kiss me, but at the same time I didn't because I remember that he was with my friend.
"Grimmjow" I mumbled causing our lips to brush against each other. I could see a smirk start to form on his lips. I closed my eyes and sighed heavily. This wasn't right Rangiku was my friend and even though I knew him first it didn't change the fact that he was seeing her. "Leave Grimmjow" I said, not opening my eyes. I felt Grimmjow's body tense against mine. I opened my eyes and saw a shocked expression on his face.
"Doesn't she want this? Does she not feel what I am feeling right now, being so close to each other?" I heard him ask himself.
"Grimmjow to answer your questions, I do want this and yes I can feel what you're feeling right now. But it isn't right you're with my friend and that's the end of it. So no matter how much we both want this we just simply can't" I snapped.
Grimmjow's P.O.V
"What the hell are you talking about, Harley?" I asked.
"I was answering your questions" she said. I looked down at her confused.
'My questions, what the hell does she mean by that? I never even asked her anything' I thought.
"Grimmjow I think Harley just read your mind," my panther said. I was about to ask him to explain himself when I realized what he was talking about.
"Harley did you just read my mind?" I asked, but I didn't ask with my voice I asked with my mind.
Harley's P.O.V
"Grimmjow what the hell are you talking about? That's ridiculous thinking that I can read your mind" I said, laughing. But as I continued to laugh I noticed that Grimmjow still had a serious expression on his face. "Is there something wrong?" I asked him, turning serious again.
"Yeah there is, Harley" Grimmjow said seriously.
"Oh yeah and what might be wrong?"
"Because Harley you can read my mind."
"Grimmjow I alr-"
"Damnit Harley quit lying. I know you're reading my mind because that entire conversation we just had I didn't say anything using my voice. The entire time I was talking in my head," Grimmjow snapped. My entire body froze I looked at Grimmjow in disbelief.
"Now you're going to have to tell him the truth" my panther said.
"But that's impossible. I've always been able to control my powers and I've always been able to tell when I was reading someones mind. How could I not tell that I was reading his?"
"I don't know, Harley," my panther said.
"Well are you going to tell me the truth?" Grimmjow asked me. I sighed heavily and looked at him.
"I-I-I have the…power to…read minds" I stuttered. Grimmjow looked at me in shocked.
"So you've been reading my mind the entire time since I've been here?"
"No I haven't, I only read your mind a couple of times" I said. Grimmjow backed away from me and stared at me still in shock of what I was saying.
"So that explains why you called me a pervert earlier when I didn't even say anything. Is there anything else about you that I should know about?" he asked.
"No" I lied.
Grimmjow's P.O.V
"I tried to tell you Grimmjow," my panther said.
"Shut the hell up," I snapped.
"Are you mad at me?" Harley asked.
"No why would I be? I'm just a little upset that you didn't tell me the truth when I asked you," I said. I could see her expression turn from worried to relief. I walked towards her again causing our bodies to press together. "Now you owe me a kiss for lying to me," I smirked. I leaned my head closer to hers until our lips met. I felt a powerful flow of electricity flow through me as we kissed. Her taste was even more powerful and intoxicating than her scent, if that is even possible. I heard and felt her moan into the kiss, causing me to smirk. I wanted more, I needed more. But when I started to run my hand up her leg I felt her tense. I was almost at the end of her towel when she pushed me off of her. "What the hell?" I asked as I caught myself in mid air from falling on my ass.
"Grimmjow you're seeing my friend" Harley snapped.
"So what" I snapped back.
"Get out," Harley semi yelled at me. I looked at her completely confused. Just a second ago we were kissing and now she is telling me to get out.
"No" I said harshly.
"Grimmjow I'm being serious, get out" Harley said. I was getting ready to say no again when I felt intense pressure start to build up in my head. It felt like my head was getting ready to explode.
Harley's P.O.V
I saw Grimmjow fall to his knees, holding his head and screaming in pain. I rushed over to see what was wrong and help him, but when I did he shoved me away. "Get the hell away from me" Grimmjow said, growling at me dangerously. I sat on the floor looking at him terrified. Grimmjow got up and I could tell that he was struggling as he stood up. He started to walk downstairs, but before I could get my body to react I heard my front door slam shut. I was going to run after him, but my body still wouldn't react and plus I was still in a towel.
"What the hell was that about?" my panther asked me.
"How the hell am I supposed to know," I snapped. I was pissed. Grimmjow snapped at me like it was my fault that he was in pain like that and it wasn't. I didn't do anything to him and he snapped at me for trying to help him.
-Hours Later-
Grimmjow's P.O.V
"Are you alright, Grimmjow?" my panther asked me.
"I don't know. I mean what the hell was that back there?" I asked. I was sitting outside the house that I was sharing with Harribel and Ulquiorra and thinking about what the hell just happened.
"I don't know. Maybe it was one of her powers," he suggested.
"Yeah well she didn't act like she knew what was going on. She acted just as freaked out as I did." I heard my panther sigh heavily.
"Talk to her tomorrow and see what the hell is going on because I honestly don't have an answer." He said. I groaned in both pain and confusion. I was confused at what happened and I was still in pain from whatever the hell happened to me back there.
Harley's P.O.V
"Should I go and check on Grimmjow?" I asked my panther. I was sitting on my couch, dressed and watching TV. It's been at least 2 hours since Grimmjow ran off and I was starting to get really worried about him.
"No I think you should give him time to calm down since he seemed mad. Try and talk to him tomorrow," my panther said. I couldn't help but feel angry at the situation. First Grimmjow kisses me then seconds later he was yelling at me for trying to help him. "Harley I know you're worried about him, but it wasn't your fault."
"Then why does it feel like it? Why did Grimmjow snap at me like it was my fault?" I asked her. I could feel the tears form in my eyes but I help them back so they wouldn't fall. I was angry but at the same time I was upset.
"I don't know Harley." I was about to say something to her when my doorbell rang.
'I wonder if it's Grimmjow'I thought. I got up and walked towards the door. I unlocked it and opened it, but it wasn't the person that I was hoping it would be. It was Shuhei.
"Shuhei what are you doing here?" I asked him.
"I was in the neighborhood and I thought I would drop by and see how you were doing" He said. I could hear the nervousness in his voice.
"I'm fine thank you, but I get the feeling that you weren't just dropping by to see how I was doing," I said. Shuhei looked at me and laughed.
"I should of known that you wouldn't buy that" He laughed. I stood there and stared at him confused as I waited for him to explain to me why he was really here. "I want to know if you want to go out on a date with me this Friday?" Shuhei asked. I didn't say anything I just stood there and stared at him in shock, like I was expecting him to say just kidding and laugh. But I noticed the seriousness on his face.
"Shuhei" I said softly. I wanted to go out with him again but at the same time things were complicated.
"I know… I know… you like Ichigo and Grimmjow, but I honestly don't care about that. Harley I miss you and I want another chance at us," Shuhei said. He walked closer to me and put his hand under my chin, bringing my face closer to his. "Just one date Harley and if you don't want to give me another shot afterwards then I will back off," he said. I sighed as I stared at him. I wanted to be with him again because honestly I did miss Shuhei a lot, but that still doesn't change the way I feel about Ichigo and Grimmjow. As I thought about my answer to Shuhei I thought about what Ichigo said. The part where Ichigo said that one of them was going to win my heart.
"All right fine, one date" I said. Shuhei smiled at me and leaned closer to me, kissing me lightly on the lips.
"I'll pick you up at 8" he said as he released my chin from his hold. I nodded my head. Shuhei turned around and walked away as I shut my door.
"My my Harley things are going to get complicated" my panther laughed. I rolled my eyes at her, I mean I knew my panther and I knew that she loved games. I knew that she especially liked the games when the game involves men. I walked over to the couch and sat back down. It was only Wednesday so that means Shuhei and I will be going out on a date in two days. I groaned as I started to think about everything. My panther was right things are going to get complicated. I have my best friend who I had a crush on since I met him, my ex boyfriend and my first and now I have Grimmjow who makes me feel complete.
"This is going to be a hard decision to make" I said out loud to myself. I could hear my panther laugh at me as I realized the situation I was in.
