Rukia Learns to Ski?

mizz rukia

ICHIGO'S POV

Ichigo had his ski equipment on and he was ready to go. He walked out into the bright sunlight that had spread over the glistening snow. The air was kind of chilly, but not too much. Perfect skiing conditions. He had skied several times in his life, when he used to go with his mom. They went several times after her death but it just wasn't the same without her.

Rukia came out of the lodge and she looked very tired already. It was probably because she wasn't used to wearing so much gear at once. Rukia saw him from where she was. "ICHIGO! YOU'RE HELPING ME LEARN TO SKI!" She was trying to get to where Ichigo was with much difficulty.

"You bitch! Who says I was going to help you?" He said angrily. "I did!" She hollered back. A voice had just broke them up.

"Ichigo! Come over here please!" the teacher said. Ichigo looked at Rukia angrily but she didn't look like she was mad. She looked satisfied with herself. Arg… why is she always able to get what she wants? He then walked towards the teacher.

"Alright Ichigo. I want you to teach Akina-san how to ski. She's never seen snow before so she's not used to it. I'll send Keigo up to be with Kuchiki-san." Ichigo turned and saw the smiling face of Akina. She looked extremely beautiful with her long hair silky smooth and her nice body in a ski uniform.

"Yay! I get a good skiier to teach me!" She smiled even wider showing her straight very white teeth. Ichigo grumbled. "Well let's get move on then." Ichigo especially hated that Keigo was the one who was going to show Rukia how to ski. It was supposed to be special for them…

He looked up at the hill and saw Rukia staring at him and Akina. I've got to explain it to her later.

"Come on Ichigo! Teach me!" How annoying is this girl… and I thought Rukia was annoying!

----------------------------------------------

RUKIA'S POV

Rukia couldn't believe it. There Ichigo was, with that blonde bimbo, when he was supposed to be teaching her how to ski. Of all the nerve. Rukia couldn't help feeling very sad at this though. No matter how angry she was, just from that she knew that Ichigo liked the blonde. Well, why shouldn't he. She was very pretty, and she could give Ichigo everything he wants. I can't give him anything. It just wouldn't work out.

Rukia was about to have tears stream down her face when she saw Keigo come up the hill. "Hey Kuchiki-san! I'm here to teach you ski because Ichigo decided to take my woman away!"

Rukia frowned. Now she was stuck with this idiot. She couldn't wait to give Ichigo a good hard kick.

"Ichigo will never let me have anyone! Not you… and now not Akina! What kind of a friend is he? He wants me to be doomed for life!" Keigo whined on and on.

Did she hear right? Keigo wants me? And Ichigo won't let him try to get me? Does this mean… no! It can't be. I just saw with my very eyes that Ichigo would never want me.

--------------------------------------------------

RUKIA'S POV

Rukia hadn't seen Ichigo that day and she was thankful for it. She couldn't face him. To her, it had seemed that he had betrayed her, even though he never really had. Who ever said that they could be in a relationship ever? She knew better than that, it was just an empty dream that would never happen. That didn't stop her from being upset and angry at him though. Just then, however, Ichigo came running.

"Oi! Rukia! Get over here. I want to talk to you!" Rukia turned, not wanting him to see the pain in her eyes. She had too much pride for that. I can't believe I am at mercy to a human!

"Rukia. Sorry about today but - "

"What Ichigo! What! You didn't even say you were going to be her partner! You just left me there with Keigo! Is that what you're sorry about? Because it didn't look like it!"

And off she went running. Away from her emotions. Away from the life she wished she could have, and running away from her foolishness. How could she think they could have something?

---------------------------------

"Rukia-chan! Are you okay?" Inoue asked when Rukia entered the room. She had stopped crying but there were still red marks on her face. Everyone seemed to look concerned except for Akina. What is with this girl?

"No, I'm okay. It's nothing." Rukia said putting on her fake smile.

"Was it that Ichigo? Because if it was…" Tatsuki said, slamming her fist into the palm of her hand. They all laughed.

"No, it's okay Tatsuki. It wasn't about him."

They all smiled and then turned to Akina. "Akina? Why were you with Ichigo?" Inoue asked thoughtfully. Rukia knew that all the girls thought Rukia and Ichigo were perfect for each other, and Rukia guessed they hoped that it had nothing to do with loving him.

"Oh, it was nothing," Akina said, with that fake smile Rukia knew too well, "the teacher just said that he should teach me since he's so experienced."

Inoue gave a sigh. And then -

The screech of a hollow, the beep on her cellphone. Rukia stood up looking very serious. "Gotta run!"

Rukia ran down the hall where the voice of Inoue trailed after her, "Where are you going?"

She kept running and running outside where there seemed to be a snowstorm. It would be hard to fight the hollow in this weather.

Maybe I should ask Ichigo for help…No! I don't need him. I can do this without him. I don't need him for anything!

--------------------------------------

ICHIGO'S POV

Damn that bitch! I don't do anything wrong and she makes me feel like shit. Now I've got to go talk to her to get that fucking idea in her head that it wasn't my fault!

Ichigo reached the room that Rukia was in and knocked. He heard a lot of girls laughing inside and then it suddenly got quiet. Akina had opened the door and she smiled when she saw him. "Oh! Ichigo! Thanks for today's lesson. Tomorrow again right?"

"Where's Rukia?" he said, ignoring Akina's question. She looked absolutely shocked. Inoue then came to the door. "Oh! Kurosaki-kun! Rukia went out. She didn't say where she was going."

Hollow…

Ichigo spun around and ran down the stairs and outside into the storm. God Rukia, how stupid are you? You and you're damn pride! It took him a while before he actually saw her, in the hand of a hollow.

"She smells so good. I must eat her." Ichigo ran up to the monster.

"Hey! You! Ugly! Drop her right now you dumbass! It's me you want!" the hollow looked at Ichigo once, and no doubt smelling his spirit power, he dropped Rukia and Ichigo caught her. She was bleeding heavily from several wounds and was unconscious. Searching for the glove in Rukia's pocket, he was running because the hollow started chasing him. He found the glove, put it on, and pushed through himself just as Rukia usually did.

His spirit came shooting out and he caught his body. He placed it in the snow knowing he would surely be sick at the very least once he had finished with this hollow.

"Come and get me asshole!" Ichigo said, pulling out his soul slayer and holding Rukia in his other arm. Blood poured out of her leaving marks in the snow. The hollow came towards him and Ichigo jumped, and broke the mask with his soul slayer.

The hollow disappeared.

Ichigo went and slid into his body which was frozen. He slowly picked Rukia up and started running, carrying her to the warmth. Her wounds by the looks of it were severe and she needed to get help fast.

Shuuryou…
