Rukia's Perspective:
"Oh Rukia-chan! We're going to have so much fun! Let me play with your hair! Ooouu, we can curl it! Or braid it! Yea, braiding would look so cute!"
I grimmaced while Matsumoto continued to babble on. I was only partly paying attention, my mind was working on a way to leave my group and find Renji. I havn't seen him since yesterday and I knew how mad he would be once he found out our groups were the farthest apart.
"Um, Matusmoto?" I asked, waiting for her to stop talking wasn't going to work. "I… have to go to the washroom, so-"
"You're going to see Renji, aren't you?" She interrupted. I was surprised she figured it out.
"Well… um," I stuttered while I tried to think of something to say. I settled for: "He's my boyfriend, please?"
Matsumoto sighed, "I'm pretty sure Taichou is going to be really mad if he found out but… fine, you could go."
"Arigatou," I said respectfully.
I tried to make sure no one saw me as I headed to see Renji. I ended up finding him drunk with his group members. I shook my head in disapproval. Some people just never change. I tried overflowing my spiritual energy, hoping he would notice I was here, but it didn't work. With a sigh, I sent Renji a Hell Butterfly telling him Byakuya Nii-sama needed him.
When he rounded the corner I grabbed his arm and covered his mouth with my hand. By then, he obviously knew it was me. We sat down in one of the dead-ends and began to talk.
"Rukia!" It still sent butterflies in my stomach whenever he said my name. He caught me in a bear hug and I smiled. But then I remembered why I came.
"Renji, I can't do this. I can't stand being so far away from you that I can't even see your red hair! I-"
"Shh, it'll be okay. We'll get through this, don't cry. Shh…" Renji began to wipe the tears off my face.
Wait. Tears? Ugh, the Human World was definitely changing me.
"It's okay," Renji continued, "I don't care if it gets me killed, I'll see you every day. Nothing can tear us apart! Ever!"
He got me in another hug, as if trying to prove his point. Just his arms around me and mine around his; as if we can only stay like that forver.
Please comment, I'm still searching for that fanfic.
