"You seem out of it. Is everything okay?" Toshiro asked. He and Momo were walking to school together, fingers intertwined.

Momo's head snapped up from its tilted position. She had been wondering how to tell Toshiro about Kira. "Hey, Shiro-chan, yesterday somebody left me sweets with my shoes. There was a note that said to meet them at the park…"

Toshiro cut her off. "You didn't go, did you?"

She looked back guiltily as he sighed. "Geez, you can be so stupid sometimes! What if it was somebody who wanted to hurt you?" Sure, he knew he was bringing up a touchy subject, but if it made his point…

"It was just a friend from back before I moved." Momo explained, "But I guess he wants something more than that. You don't have to worry, Shiro-chan, he won't change my mind about you."

"Better not."

Much to Momo's dismay, the news of Kira liking her had already been told to practically everybody in their year. She was now the center of attention.

"Hey, if you don't want Hitsugaya anymore, I'll gladly take him off your hands."

"I can't believe she has two guys who like her! I don't even have one!"

At lunch, Momo escaped from the noisy crowd and sat up on the roof with Orihime, Ichigo, Rukia, Toshiro, and Chad.

Momo took a bite of an apple. "This is so annoying! I wish everybody would just shut up about it already."

"Welcome to my world," Ichigo huffed, casting a sidelong glance at Rukia, who then slapped his shoulder.

There was a click, the sound of somebody taking a step, then a slam. Everybody who had turned to see none other than Kira, smirking as he approached them.

"Hey guys. Mind if I join you?" He gestured to the floor, 'coincidentally' right where Momo happened to be sitting. Without waiting for a response, he set his bag down and sat down next to it.

Toshiro glared, but Kira was unaware. The lunch continued in peace; it was pretty awkward for everybody, although there was no tension.

"I think it's been long enough. At this point, nobody will notice if I…" Kira extended an arm and put behind Momo. He wasn't touching her, but anybody who walked by and didn't know that she was dating Toshiro would assume that she was going out with Kira.

Toshiro, however, did notice. He slapped Kira's hand away and told him gruffly, "Keep your distance."

Kira didn't interpret this as a warning; he took it as a threat. He stood up and grabbed Toshiro by the collar. "Listen, midget. I don't want to start any fights, but if we did I think we know who would win."

Within seconds, Toshiro had done the following: Loosened Kira's grip on his shirt, kneed him in the stomach, then kicked him in the shin just hard enough to knock him over. "Yeah." Toshiro said, looking down at the fallen boy. "I think we do."

Momo got up and ran over. "I thought I said no fighting!"

Kira rubbed his stomach and muttered, "Damn shorty…" Momo kneeled down and asked him, "Are you hurt?"

Toshiro just stared, realizing that he had given Kira exactly what he had wanted. Momo was now upset with him for fighting and was aiding Kira who had been beaten up. "Well," Kira started, "I think I'll be okay, but I should probably go see the nurse." "Ha! This is going exactly as planned! Now all Momo has to do is help me to the office…"

"Okay! I would help you myself, but I'm not sure I could support you. I guess Ichigo will have to take you." Ichigo glanced up from his lunch, with a shrimp tail hanging from his mouth.

For the second time during that short time period, Rukia slapped him and scolded him, probably something along the lines of "Get the damn shrimp out of your mouth and go help her!"

Sighing, Ichigo did as he was told, and draped Kira's arm over his shoulder to help him to the nurse. There was a short silence; it wasn't too long,, but it was still noticeable.

"Wow…" Orihime said, "I wonder if he's gonna be alright…"

Toshiro groaned and sat down, covering part of his face with his hand. "Sorry, Momo. I really shouldn't have…"

Too his surprise, Momo was actually grinning, "That's okay. Nobody touches my Shiro-chan and gets away with it."

Um… I honestly couldn't think of what else to write. Which means I'm out of ideas so if you want me to continue you better help me out! (haha). Well, I guess that's it.

Ideas=love!
