Chapter 12

"Ichigo!" Isshin kicked his room door open as he sent a kick to his face.

"What is it, Oyajii?" Ichigo blocked him and smashed him on the floor with only one arm.

"Is it true that you and Rukia are engaged?" He asked, with a serious face. Ichigo stared at him. Speechless. "So I guess that is a 'yes'?" He sat down on Ichigo's chair and stared at his face.

Ichigo was speechless again. He was afraid that Isshin will be mad at him. Since he is still only at university. But he hoped he won't be. Ichigo nodded hesitantly, but according to his acknowledgement, Isshin will be surprisingly happy.

"Really?" Isshin jumped up and patted his son's back. "I'm proud of you, Ichigo!" He ran out the room and rushed downstairs shouting, "Masaki! We have a daughter-in-law now! I'm so proud of Ichigo! Masaki!" As usual, he cried as he hugged the huge poster of Masaki at the living room.

"I knew oyajii will react like that." He sighed. It shocked him that Isshin was so serious at the start. "I just hope Byakuya won't rage after Rukia and me about this." He took a jacket out from his cupboard and covered himself and left his room.

Karin opened her room door as Ichigo just walked downstairs, she just remembered her father running down with a loud noise, talking to the huge poster of her mother. "Ichi-nii, what happened to odo-san?"

"Being very happy about the engagement." He replied as he dashed down the stairs. "Tell Yuzu and oyajii that I'm going out for a moment." Ichigo shouted at Karin as he left the house.

Karin stared at Ichigo until he left the house. She stomped down the wooden stairs as she found Isshin in the living room, still hugging Masaki's huge poster. "Odo-san…" She spoke as Isshin turned with a face full of happiness.

"Karin-chan! What's wrong?" Isshin turned to Karin, the smile on his face hasn't faded away yet. "What would you like? Daddy will do everything for you!" He exclaimed.

"Can… I have a cell phone of… my own?" Karin asked. She told herself that she would get her own phone when she is in senior high, but for Hitsugaya's sake, she will get it now. "Dad?" Isshin didn't answer, she waved her hand in front of Isshin's face.

"Uhh… sure! For my dearest daughter's sake! It's only a phone. Do you want to go buy it yourself or do you want daddy to be with you?" He asked, he didn't thought of anything, since he will always grant his daughter's wish no matter what.

"It's fine, I will go with my friend. Thanks, odo-san." Karin smiled as she went back to her room.

"Karin-chan, did daddy say you can have a phone?" Yuzu asked as Karin entered their room. Karin nodded as she smashed herself into her soft bed. She looked out of her room's window, the moon was already up high in the sky as the stars started to sparkle.

"Nee, Yuzu, what do you think Ichi-nii will go at this time? It's really late now." Karin murmured. She was bored. She hardly uses her laptop, or read books. Although mostly she would spend her time doing homework but today, she managed to finished it before hand which was a miracle.

Yuzu shrugged her shoulders, "Probably at onee-chan's place." She stared at Karin, "How's you and Toushiro-kun going?"

Karin smashed her head into her pillow and mumbled. "We are going fine. Just like usual."

"Usual? Do you still have your first kiss?" She sat up on her bed and stared at the other corner of the room. "Have you two hugged each other? Hold hands together while walking back home?"

Karin stared at her twin sister. "I still have my first kiss, we never hugged, nor do we walk home holding hands. Yuzu, what are you expecting from this relationship? Toushiro being you brother-in-law?" Karin crossed her arms in front of her chest as she stared at her sister suspiciously.

"I hope that is true. I really want Toushiro-kun to be a part in our family." Yuzu smiled as she checked the ticking clock in the room. "It would be more happier with Toushiro-kun as my brother-in-law." Yuzu's smile grew brighter as she sat on Karin's bed.

"Maybe it might be true. I don't know yet. Still too young to think about the future." Karin spoke softly as she flipped her whole facing towards the white ceiling.

"Karin-chan… is it just me… or is that… you have grown fatter a bit since we got with Toushiro-kun?" Yuzu poked her waist, which was obviously had a bit more fat than last she poked, which was around two weeks ago.

"No I haven't! Yuzu what are you talking about?!" Karin jumped up as she shoved Yuzu aside.

"But you see?" Yuzu started pinching Karin on the waste with one hand and the other hand holding her head. "Look at these fats on your waist. You should exercise more."

"I have already been exercising!" Karin frowned. She looked at the time again. It was ten o'clock. "I'm going to sleep." She pulled out her pyjamas from her cupboard and replaced her normal clothes with the pair of pyjamas. She banged her cupboard doors shut and snuggled into her warm blanket. "Yuzu… close the lights please."

"Hai hai." She was changed into her pyjamas already out of nowhere and closed the lights. "Oyasumi, Karin-chan."

"Oyasumi." Karin mumbled under the thick layer of her blanket.

"Momo, can you grab me a spare towel?" Hitsugaya walked out of his bathroom with a towel wrapped around him. His wet hair was dripping down drops of water onto the soft carpet.

"Hai, coming soon." Hinamori yelled as she went back into her room to dig for a spare towel. She pulled out a pale green towel, and chucked it to Hitsugaya. "Here you go, Shiro-chan." She smiled as she went back into the kitchen. Hitsugaya checked the ticking clock in his room. 7.00am. Shit, I better hurry a bit. He shoved all his school stuff in his bag and changed into his uniform. Grabbing his phone on the desk, and covered himself with his school jumper and wore his shoes.

"I'm going." He placed his hands on the door knob as Hinamori stopped him.

"Shiro-chan! Your bento and your breakfast." She shoved his bento in his bag and handed him a chocolate milk carton with a pineapple bun.

"Thanks." He hangs the pineapple bun in his mouth as he headed out for school. He drank all of the milk at once and ate the pineapple bun in five bites.

He checked the time, 7.20am, still have ten minutes until training for the freshmen to start. He thought he would be a bit late but he still has to change into his PE uniform and wait for Karin. Without noticing, he bumped into someone right in front of the school gates. "Ah, I'm sorry for bumping into you." He grabbed that person's arm just in case she fell. He looked up to the person. "Karin? You're early today."

"Not such a big deal. Go to the change rooms quickly, we need to start training them really soon. I saw a few of them on the way to school." Karin replied as she ran to the girl's change room, without forgetting to give Hitsugaya a smile.

He smirked; he shoved his hands in his pockets and went to the boy's change room.

"How long have we not been training you guys in the morning?" Karin asked as she assembled all of the freshmen together. They looked at each other. None of them remembered, since it was only their second time having early morning training.

"Since we still have classes soon so I don't want to stress you guys too much, we will start of practicing shooting first." Hitsugaya kicked the ball to one of the freshmen standing in front of him and got a cone and placed at certain spot at the goal. There were no goal keepers. "Kick the ball and let it hit the cone down. However, the ball has to go into the goal; otherwise you will need to run around the school with me and Karin after school."

"Hai." They responded at once and lined up in two lines. Hitsugaya was in charge of the goal that was closer to the school buildings and Karin was in charge in the other goal.

"Guys, we will be training something different over there. You will need to change later so we can see some of you have the talent to actually join the school junior soccer team." Karin grinned as all the freshmen started to stare at each other. "This end will be training defending while Toushiro's will be attacking."

"Kurosaki fuku-taichou, so how are we going to train? With each other or with you?" One of the freshmen asked. He was the one who asked the most questions, his name was Fujiwara Daisuke.

"You guys will be the goal keepers, I will be shooting." Karin answered as she took off her jacket. She liked her jacket on, nice and warm, since in the middle of autumn. She asked them to line up and each of them will have ten turns of trying to defend Karin. "Although I kind of sorry, but I will be using my full strength shooting, no half strength or anything. Have fun defending." Karin gave a smile as the first person was ready.

Karin kept shooting and no one actually managed to get to defend her completely. She rubbed off the sweat on her forehead with the towel that was hang around her neck as the freshmen opposite side was staring at her.

"Guys, pay attention. I know that Karin is good at shooting, so that is why you guys need to practise in order to get to her level." Hitsugaya moaned as they all turned all their attention to Hitsugaya. His eyes spread cold around the atmosphere and all the freshmen didn't dare to not pay attention to their practise any more.

Fifteen minutes passed.

It was already 7.45am. All of them freshmen were lying on the field huffing and puffing. Sweat was streaming down their head to the necks, trying to keep up the breathing.

"Monsters… Hitsugaya taichou and Kurosaki fuku-taichou are both monsters… How could they thought of these hell-like training." One of them sighed.

"Get up, time to swap." Hitsugaya blowed the whistle as all of them stood up lazily and swapped coaches with the other ends. Karin took a water bottle and gulped down half of the water.

"Torture…" One of them murmured.

So the hell-like training begins again.

Another fifteen minutes passed. Fifteen minutes of torture, has finally passed.

The scenery was like this: Karin and Hitsugaya standing next to each other, finishing their bottle of water. The gang of freshmen scattered around the huge field, lying down like dead bodies. Huffing and puffing as usual.

Hitsugaya took out his pure white phone from his pocket. 8.15am. He grabbed his towel and walked to the change rooms.

"Training finished." Karin called as she followed Hitsugaya, heading towards the girl's change rooms. The freshmen still stayed lying down for a few minutes, until they had enough energy left to walk to the change rooms and getting changed.

The bell rang, all of the students of Tokyo High left the school and either headed back home or went for a trip to the city with their friends. Karin and Hitsugaya walked out of the classrooms as the two headed to the city together. Hitsugaya was looking at his phone as usual, as Karin went to buy some sweet treatments for both of them.

"Toushiro, your chocolate pearl milk tea." Karin handed him the drink along with a transparent straw as she poked her straw through her drink.

"Thanks." He took the drink and did the same as Karin. "So, what do you want me to do with you here at the city?" He shoved his phone in his pocket and walked next to her down the streets.

"Choose a phone for me." Karin smiled. She started to skip down the streets finding for a shop where she could buy a new phone for herself along with a sim card.

"Just get the same phone as mine, but different colour." Hitsugaya answered. He dragged her down the streets, and arriving to the store where he got his phone.

"Is there black?" Karin asked, she liked the colour black, or dark blue. Hitsugaya nodded as he drank another gulp of his drink.

"Obviously. Here this one." Hitsugaya asked the workers over there to get the exactly same phone as his but only black. Karin took out her wallet and paid for it as the workers handed her a free sim card with a charge of $50 inside.

"Thanks Toushiro, for being with me today." Karin smiled as she set up her brand new phone as they walked down the busy streets. Although it was clear enough to hear some of the girls in their school talking about their relationship.

Karin pulled Toushiro close to her as she smiled brightly and Toushiro with a slightly shocked face with his milk tea covering half of his face.

Snap.

"Thanks again." Karin's smile grew brighter as she landed a soft kiss on Hitsugaya's cheek.

So this is the end of Chapter 12~
