Title: Amnesiac Love

Pairing: Grimmjow x Ichigo

Plot: Grimmjow lost Ichigo in an accident, leaving him embittered and heartbroken. Soon he meets a girl who is very much like Ichigo but she claims to be Ichigo Kurosaki. She is suffering from amnesia and does not remember her past life nor Grimmjow.

When she remembered it all, she quickly talked to her father about it and he discussed everything to her. She was dead for one day but the next she was alive, and her family was surprised by this. However, her male organ was damaged so he decided to transgender her with the help of other doctors.

And they learned that the accident damaged her brain, causing her to suffer amnesia. They made her believe that she was a girl all the time, from tampering the family photos to changing all her personal files. Isshin also told her that they never told Grimmjow about this, and they only knew about her when she (Ichigo) bumped into them.

"That's why we kept this all from you. We were concerned and worried. We didn't want you to get hurt. I'm sorry." Isshin apologized, understanding the fact that she was shocked to the deepest core.

"But why? Now I know that he spent months sulking over me, and I was oblivious about it. All of this, I wonder why. If you had just told me the truth from the start, it wouldn't hurt as much as it would hurt now. You, Grimmjow, Nel, everyone kept this from me." Her body was shaking, and her fists were balled so tight that they became white like a ghost's skin.

And then, she quickly ran out of the house; her father unable to catch up to her. She ran so fast, her eyes narrowed into slits and her lip being bit so hard. Grabbing a gate, she opened it and knocked on the door repeatedly, out of breath. The door opened, showing Grimmjow. Ichigo panted, holding on to the side of the door. Out of worry, the bluenette touched her shoulder and asked what's wrong, though the only thing that he got was tight hug by his girlfriend. Ichigo held back her tears with her sheer will.

He was confused but he gently hugged her back with one arm. "Why are you upset?" Ichigo pulled back and looked at him, clearing his throat and exhaling a little more before explaining everything to him, while they stood just right there the whole time.

"I know everything now. And about those eleven months that you spent, thinking that I was dead... I feel guilty. I feel like a complete asshole for not knowing about it." She explained, lowering her head in guilt. "I'm sorry about everything." She said honestly, her voice grave.

"I love you Grimmjow, but all the pain I caused you... I can't bear it. That's why we should break up and I can't see you, because the only thing I'll ever bring you is pain that the happiness that we share will never amount to. We also can't be friends anymore. I appreciated all the time that we were together, and I don't regret it but I want you to have a life without me, and I know that you will feel better."

Grimmjow wouldn't accept what she said and kissed her deeply, grabbing her shoulders. Ichigo gently pushed him away. "It hurts, I know. But even though we can never see each other again, I'll always love you and please move on without me." She leaned forward for a deep, romantic kiss and shed a tear. "I love you. Goodbye, Grimmjow." She was gone afterwards.

Six years passed since the tragic breakup. Grimmjow changed, he did not become an isolated drunk again though he became extremely quiet and sort of unfriendly, talking only to no one but Nel. He entered college three years, taking computer science and graduated as the salutatorian; and he started working in a good, well-known company. It may have been very long, but Ichigo was always on his mind. Nel graduated law and became a very successful lawyer.

Nel was like a therapist or psychiatrist to her brother and she understood his pain very well as she was hurt too. Ichigo graduated medicine and took over her father's clinic; but she also works in Karakura Hospital; and she became one of the most famous doctors in Japan. Though she still couldn't forget about Grimmjow. Everyone was concerned about the two of them, and soon enough Ulquiorra went back from Japan after graduating from medicine as well.

Since he was also a doctor he worked with Ichigo. Ichigo remembered him and they became friends, then really good friends, then after a few months they started going out though they took things slow and steady. Ulquiorra heard about the breakup and all that happened before that, and he didn't have feelings for her but he dated her only to help her feel a little better. He wanted her to get back with Grimmjow and talked to the bluenette and her about it, though they said nothing and went gloomy.

On a Friday afternoon, Ichigo was in the hospital. Her long, orange hair tied up in a ponytail, her body covered in the white doctor's coat. She just finished checking on a patient who had a bone fracture. Then quickly, Ulquiorra grabbed her shoulder from behind, surprising her. "Oh you. Is there a new patient?"

"Not really. I think you should follow me. It is important." She was a little confused, but she did and they entered a room numbered 106. She gasped when she saw who the patient was. There were bandages everywhere, many tubes connected to the body, and the person's state being unconscious.

It was Nel, and Grimmjow was also in there, watching her. The bluenette noticed that someone else was in the room and his eyes opened wide. "Ichigo." He muttered in disbelief. "Grimmjow." She couldn't believe it either. They saw each other again after six years of being apart.

Hotaru: Yeah. I know that you'll give negative comments. But it's not that they're going to be separate forever. Please review and I won't let you down.
