pairing: well its not as much a pairing really but I guess Orihime, Rukia.

I was feeling kind of depressed (mainly cause I'm sick right now and I was really in the mood for something sad with orihime) anyway... feedback appreciated.

I dont own bleach or any of the characters


Comparisons of Happiness

A Dark Haired Beauty rose from a deep sleep warm, beautiful, summer morning.

Inoue Orihime awoke upon a frigid morning in mid October.

The Beauty gently and gracefully waltzed over to her vanity and admired herself and smiled at the start of a new day.

Orihime trudged over to her mirror, still in a sleepy haze, scowled at the sight of herself and cried.

The Beauty began to glide towards the sight of her brother and wished him her love and good health.

Inoue Orihime crawled out of her room and gazed upon her brother's picture and began to cry once more.

The Beauty dressed herself in the best of clothing and indulged herself each day with lavish foods and good company.

Orihime slipped on her usual pale grey uniform and created an uneatable dish of "food" in which she ate every day; alone.

The Beauty continued her day with the company of good friends and was greeted by all as she entered her "castle."

Orihime left her small, lonely, apartment and continued to walk her usual lonely path towards the familiar stone and plaster covered walls known as her school.

The Dark Haired Beauty gracefully joined a group of her subordinates who gazed upon her with amazement and stupor.

Orihime walked through the halls and joined a class that seemed almost empty with no one to greet her. Not even her only friend who had been absent lately.

The Beauty took the final steps of the day into her room, gazed upon herself in her vanity and admired herself before falling back into her deep sleep.

Orihime, crushed from the uneventful day, stared at her own reflection and laughed at herself out of pity. She laughed and laughed until they slowly turned into bawls and cries and she cried herself to sleep that night.

That night, The Dark Haired Beauty would not dream pleasantly, but dream about her lost superior and the guilt she carried with her. She would not tell or show this feeling to anyone. But it was there; devouring her inside like a parasite.

Orihime would dream during the night about everyone who helped her in her life remembering the happiness and love that they gave her; Her Brother, Best Friend, and of course, The Dark Haired Beauty.
