Chapter 4

We were walking home from school. She seemed to be really happy. She was smiling so brightly.

"What's up with you? You met Chappie?" I asked.

"I wish! But, something happened! It was so cute!" she smiled so happily it was scary!

"I'm in high spirits today!" she blurted out.

"You look so huggable today Ichigo!"

Okay… being in high spirits was creepy enough, but huggable!... That's sooo scary!

She gave me a look… Is she gonna eat me alive?... This is bad! I ran away, she chased me, laughing.

AGHHHHH! I slipped, and she caught me! SHE"S GOT ME! NOOOOOOO!

She gave me an octopus hug, soooo tightly and laughed.

That was really weird. But, I couldn't blame her. She was too happy it was creeping me out!

She wouldn't let go! What's up! I walked home and she still wouldn't let go… Good thing dad and the twins weren't home yet!

She let go when I threw her down to the bed…

She laughed so much she turned pink.

"Ichigo… That is the cutest shade of pink I've ever seen on your face!"

"WHAT!" I was blushing already?..

"Oh, and so that I won't screw up dinner again, I bought some cup ramen!" she walked out of my room.

That was weird… One minute she was so hyper, now she wants to make dinner…

Glad that she got over that night… Glad she isn't crying anymore.

I went downstairs and found two cup ramen on the coffee table and the television turned on to Chappie the rabbit.

She was waving at me. I took a seat and ate my ramen. She was enjoying her show as usual.

I went up the stairs.

"Ichigo" she said.

"What?" I glared at her.

"Arigatou." She blushed.

For what? I thought.

I continued and went in my room. I lay down my bed and covered with sheets. I couldn't seem to sleep again.

I couldn't help but wonder when is the day she will go back… I know she will be out of my reach not for long… I couldn't help but wonder…

I pretended to sleep.

I felt her opening the door to my room. Her, walking in so lightly with the intention of not waking me up. She sat on my study table and was scribbling. She stopped and turned off the light. She neared my bed. I was hiding under the covered so I didn't see her get near. I only felt the hand that uncovered the sheet enough to see my face.

She was watching me… I tried not to move a muscle so she wouldn't suspect. It was dark and the moonlight reflected her face enough to be seen. She neared my face and my heart was beating faster. She didn't get too near. I just felt her ebony hair brush against my face and her glowing blue eyes staring into me. She went inside my closet and fell asleep.

She was watching me, as if it was her last stare… As if she was trying to steal affection from me…

I got up as quietly as I could and lightly opened the closet. I saw her sleeping. The shallow breathing and smile that traced across her face and that warm feeling around me gave me hope.

O-o-o-o-o-o-O

"Good morning Ichigo!" My dad was rushing towards me, half-asleep with a punch…

OOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW!

"CAN'T I GET SOME SLEEP AROUND HERE!" I screamed.

"There's no time for sleep! I just saw an adorable note with an adorable picture of an adorable girl on your study table!" my dad said.

"NANI!" I ran towards the study table and saw a picture of Me and Rukia in the park days ago.

I read the note. Meet me at the shoujo's grave later.

I dressed up and went to that post where a child recently died. I saw Rukia across the busy street wearing a smile on her face. A real smile… not her disgusting grin or smirk in school…

Without thinking, she ran over to me despite the traffic, and spotting a speeding vehicle, I ran to her side and tried to push her out of the way, but…

She was hit… She took more damage than I did.

"Rukia! Rukia!" I held her tightly, fearing for her life. She was in a faux body, but I was scared.

Damn that b------! I'm gonna pulp him dead when I see him get out of that damn car!

It was a girl… She was crying……

"Gomen na sai! Gomen na sai! Please… I want to help you guys!" she was crying…

I brought Rukia to Dad's clinic.

"Are you hurt? What happened?" My dad said.

"She's more hurt. Go to her first…" I said. My dad nodded and ran to Rukia's room.

Yuzu and Karin rushed with medical tools.

I sat on a bench and waited. The girl from earlier sat on the other end. She was still crying.

"I'm sorry… I never meant to… I was in a hurry and… now…" she mumbled. I didn't say anything.

"I wanted to visit my family before it was too late… I…" she sobbed.

She handed me an envelope and it looked like a will. I looked at her for a minute.

She was weakening and she fainted.

"Oi, Oi… Miss! Daijoubu?" I shook the girl to wake her up.

O-O-O-O

"This girl's got leukemia… Ichigo… she's not gonna last and longer than today…" dad said.

"Leukemia… No wonder she kept on sobbing… She was sick and she didn't want to hurt anyone especially at this time when she's about to go…"

She stopped breathing and I saw her soul flying out.

"Arigatou… Nii-san… please deliver that to my parents… I know my death was so sudden…" she said.

I went out the room, telling the girl to follow me. Rukia wasn't there to push me soul out so, I looked for Kon.

I took him and got the pill and swallowed it. My soul was out, I took out zangetsu and gave her the soul burial.

"Go to heaven… Be happy, I knew your life really sucked here."

"Arigatou… Shinigami-san…" she smiled as tears flowed down and a black butterfly flew off.

I delivered that will, as promised. The girl was probably in peace now. It didn't really matter I guess when she hit Rukia.. After all it was an accident…

I bought some flowers and visited the clinic. Rukia was up and awake. I saw dad sitting by her.

"Yo, Ichigo! Are you sure she an acquaintance of yours?" my dad asked.

"What does that mean Rukia?" I asked.

"Is Rukia… My name? Who are you?" she blushed and clutched the blamket tightly.

A death god…. Has Amnesia?... Weird……… That's not true…………. Right Rukia?...

"I don't remember what happened to me!" she cried.

"Dad, can I talk to her alone?" I asked.

"If you got somethin' to say, say it here!" I kicked him out the door.

"I don't know anymore… Please tell me! I'm so confused…" she cried and embraced me… why?

"Oi oi… It's okay… I'll try to help you remember!" I let go… I was so naïve, I admit.

"You're a death god, okay? You stepped into my room with your black kimono and freaky zanpaktou, and got me involved in this death god business… I gave in since my family was about to be eaten my a monster soul called hollow… My room then was trashed…Got it so far?"

"Ah… Gomen na sai… Because of me your room was trashed, you got tied up in a situation and your family was endangered! I'm so useless… I am not worth shedding the blood!" she cried, I had to comfort her…

Last minute she was a headstrong horribly brave and scary shinigami, now she's a helpless crybaby, naïve petite girl.

"What's your name oh kind sir?" she stared at me with those blue eyes… SCARY…

Kind sir?... I could get used to this…

"Kurosaki, Ichigo, 15, high school student, substitute death god as you may call it…"

"That name is unbelievably familiar…" she smiled.

"Do you remember about going to school and death god work?" I asked…

"I… can't… my head hurts…" she said.

"I'll just see you tomorrow then." I stood up.

"No, don't leave me please…" she held my hand.

"Excuse me?" I said sarcastically.

"Gomen na sai… Kurosaki-dono…"

KUROSAKI-DONO!

"Please… call me Ichigo…" PLEASE…

"Atto matta ne… Ichigo-san…" her small and soft hands slowly let go of mine.

beeping

"A hollow!" I said.

"What do I do with this?" she handed me her spirit phone.

"Quick! Where's Kon..?" I asked… Oh yah… she probably doesn't remember Kon.

"Should I look for him?" she volunteered.

"No way! You got hit by a car and you're in a paper dress!" I cried.

She blushed and stayed in bed obediently…

"It's near… I gotta go!" I tried to find her bag and found the red glove.

"Put it on and push me out!" I told her.

"Push what out?" she asked.

"My konpaku! Hurry!"

She put in on and did what I told her to. She was astounded as she saw my shinigami form.

"Ah… This is so cool!" she smiled and turned bright red, looking at me.

I ran outside and charged at the hollow.

She watched the combat from the inside.

The hollow walked towards the clinics direction.

"Ah s---! Rukia!" I ran towards the hollow.

"Kyaa!" She screamed as the hollow pulled her out of the window.

"Rukia!" I screamed.

"Ichigo-san!" she was crying.

I was going to slice the hollow but it used Rukia as a shield! Damn it! I didn't slice.

"Ichigo-san… It's because of me again…" she cried.

"Hey, it's not my fault you were like this, nor yours! So shut up and let me save you!" I cried.

She wiped the tears off and smiled at me.

Whoa…

I ran around the hollow and sliced its foot. It screamed in pain. It was about the throw Rukia.

It was off guard so I sliced through its mask and kicked it until it disintegrated.

Rukia was falling, so I caught the petite shinigami wearing a paper dress.

"Arigatou… Ichigo-san." She smiled.

I went back inside my body. I placed her back in her bed.

"I remember one thing though…" she said.

"I know that I used to stay in your closet… Did I?" she blushed even more.

She's making me blush! DAMMIT!

"Yeh… so?" my hand brushed through my hair.

"I thought so…" she smiled.

"May I… at least…" she was red and her fingers together, twitching…

"Nani?" I tried to hear her whisper, so I got closer.

She kissed me in the cheek, giggled and covered herself with sheets.

WHAT WAS THAT FOR! I blushed.

I was in shock and demanded an explanation, so I uncovered those sheets, revealing a sleeping death god…

She was practically relaxed now. Okay… She looked serene and… beautiful… like the night…

Just like the night…

She noticed my hand brush through her hair and she smiled.

I went out and found my two sisters grinning.

"I found my stufftoy onii-chan! Doesn't she look pretty!" Yuzu smiled at me, holding Kon up high.

"I borrowed your guitar earlier." Karin said.

I walked past them and went to bed. The twins lightly opened the door and stared at me.

"Ichi-nii has really pulled it off… ne Yuzu?" Karin whispered to Yuzu, as if I didn't notice… --
