The Beginning
I laid my forehead gently against the window pane, letting my eyes fall upon each snow flake before they hit the groung and disappeared. It reminded me of how, in one moment there could be something that you thought you couldnt live without, but in an instant it could be taken away and you realize you can live without it, only you wish you didnt. If only there was an off switch to my heart ache, or at least a rewind button.
But, as usual, there wasn't.
"Hey,knock knock."
I snapped toward the sound, startled by the sudden presence of someone else. Standing in the doorway was Ichigo. He wore our school's uniform, which snow still clung to, and had his bag slung lazily over his shoulder. I tried not to notice how red his lips looked against his pale complection. It's not like it matter'd anymore.
" I thought I'd stop by" He licked his lips ( which, by the way, didn't go unnoticed ) " but when you didn't answer your door I-" He stammered, looking away as he took on a light tinge of pink. " Well, anyways, I used your spare house key, hope you don't mind." That was my cue to comfort him, to reassure his doubts, and, well, thats exactly what I did.
"Don't worry, Kurosaki-kun!" I tilted my head to give off a more innocent look. "I'm glad you stopped by!" He looked a bit surprised by my sudden change of attitude, but recovered himself quickly and smiled at me warmly. If only that warmth could touch my heart, as it had once done so before.
At that moment his cell phone rang, and with a quick flick of his risk, he was talking to someone else. I tunned him out as I returned my attention back to the window. It had already been a month since the Hueco Mundo incident. The soul society had suggested that I stay with them for awhile, but after some persuasive talking, it was agreed that I was to stay inside the security of my home, where I was imprisoned in silence filled with only my thoughts of him. Him. Oh, god, I miss him. I miss the secret meetings and the thrill of doing something behind everyone's back. I miss the feeling of his hands caressing my skin and the shiver of pleasure that came with each forbidden kiss. Like I said, a rewind button. Thats all I need.
I heard a soft snap, and without turning around, listened as Ichigo approached my windowsill. Before I could look at him, he wrapped his arms around me, pulling me closer,closer to his heart and nuzzling into my hair. When he spoke, It rumbled through my body.
"I'm so sorry, Inoue." When he breathed in my scent, it was like he was breathing me in.
"Orihime" He was all around me now. In the air, in my head, on my skin.
This time when he spoke, it was more of a moan and I didn't just feel it physically, but received his raging passion to have me.
"I love you, Orihime Inoue, I'll always protect you." Feeling his arms around me, and hearing his heart drum in my ear, I closed my eyes.
And with everything I had, imagined it was him holding me. Very softly, where ichigo couldn't hear, I whispered his name.
Ulquiorra.
