Chap 5. Confessions

Ichigo reached out for a towel.

She found none.

"Fuck" she said under her breath

She forgot to take her towel when she got in to the bathroom.

"All the others must be asleep by now. And they wouldn't be able to hear me anyway. I need to ask Shirogane." Ichigo thought.

She hold her shirt against herself as she opened the door a tiny crack.

"Shirogane? You awake?" she whispered.

"About time you get out. I want my shower too." Grumbled a very tired Ryou.

"Um.... I forgot my towel and robe on your bed, can you get them for me?" said Ichigo, clearly Embarassed.

Even in the darkness Ichigo could see Ryou smirking and her eyes narrowed.

"Quit the smirking. It is not funny." Said Ichigo crossly.

"Sorry, can't help it" said Ryou as he came closer to the bathroom with her stuff.

"Close your eyes." Demanded Ichigo.

"C'mon, no fair. You get to see me half naked all the time. Why can't I do he same?" joked Shirogane, but he closed his eyes anyway as he passed her towel and robe to her.

"Oh. Maybe you'll get to. Someday." Laughed Ichigo as she closed the door.

Ryou heard a feint murmur coming from the other side of that door.

"Thank you"

"No problem" said Shirogane. Still smiling.

(about 3am. After both had their bath)

"I swear you take longer time than me in there" smirked Ichigo.

"Do you even know how long you spend in there Momomiya?" challenged Shirogane.

"Yeah, it was...wa...yawn.." Ichigo yawned, never finished her sentence.

"Should go sleep now, you." Said Ryou, realizing how tired she looks.

"I don't know... I don't know if I want to sleep..." Ichigo trailed off.

"What do you mean? You look like you've being through hell, which is guess is quite right but then..." said a baffled Shirogane.

"I'm...I'm scared...." Mumbled Ichigo.

"Scared? Of what? I am not going to even go near you I promise" said Shirogane.

"No, not you, its, dream..... You know what? Forget it. I think I'll sleep now... Good night." Ichigo sighed out.

"Momomiya, if there is something that you like to share or talk about, remember I'm here. You're not alone. I know that you have being through a lot and I understand but shutting yourself up isn't the best solution. Believe me. I tried that." Said Ryou.

Ichigo was silent for a long time and Ryou thought she had fallen asleep.

"Come seat next to me? You're right. I want to talk." Said Ichigo, patting the space next to her.

Shirogane walked over and sat on his bed.

Ichigo took a deep breath.

"I'm scared because, I keep having nightmares about the death. His death. About him.

The scene of his death just keeps on replaying in my mind. It haunts me at night, during the day. All the time.

I just can't get rid of it..." Ichigo confessed.

"Maybe you should try just forgetting it. It's your love that is haunting you right now."

"Maybe you should try and move on. Always remember his love for you, but also remember. He would want you to move on. He would want you to be happy. And not like this. Right?" said Ryou.

"Yeah. You're right." "But I still don't think it is that simple." Murmured Ichigo.

"You don't have to try and love the first person you met. You can take things slowly. Gradually, the hauntings would stop and fade. But his love wouldn't. As long as you remember his love, you'll always be loyal to him" said Shirogane.

"Thank you Ryou. I am just so confused, and lost" Cried Ichigo as she sobbed.

Eventually she went to sleep, her head nesting on Ryou's chest.

Ryou watched as her hair slipped on to her face. He swept her hair from her face and sighed.

Both fell asleep in that position.

Little did they know that a certain someone with long ears was looking out from the window at them, pure hatred in his eyes...
