Kaito POV

"I swear I saw her!" I said as I walked the dark streets, "But if she's older than us why would she be with a crowd of teenagers?" I shook my head, "Does it matter? The song worked only in one try! I found her! Though I only saw her for a quick second..."

I looked down as I regretted not running after her. Nobu put a hand on my shoulder, "Okay then lets think of it this way, we now know she's still in Karakura town."

Everybody from the band split up and went there own ways home. "Anyways when we get home I have a surprise for you!" I rolled my eyes.

"Nobu I swear if it's some erotic video again I will kill you." He shook his head, "You're temperamental as usual."

"You should get on your knees to thank me in the trouble I had to snag this year book dude." My eyes widen as I snatched the book.

"Whoa! I didn't think you'd be this eager." I opened the year book and scanned the pages. "Well actually you should super thank me cause I have the year books of her whole High School career."

I looked up, "How did you get these?" Nobu scratched his head, "Connections, connections." I flipped another page as my eyes saw orange hair and peachy skin. She was really beautiful.

"Well she was the only one that had orange hair besides some other guy...dude are you sure it's her? She looks really hot... I mean I can't see her body but her face is amazing."

I gazed as I looked through all the year books. Something was different? My head started to pound. "Have you noticed her expression in all these year book pictures?"

Nobu looked at me, "So you noticed too." he knelt down and pointed,

"Well she looks pretty happy in her first year. Her second year she has a spaced out look with a band aide on her cheek. Her third year she looks completely different. Her hair cut is much differently and she looks really happy."

Nobu looked towards me, "When out of these three did you know her?"

"I remember that haircut; I must have known her in her last year of High school." Nobu put a hand to his chin, "Well actually I've done a little research on her, she actually went to Tokyo U! She passed with honors but I heard something happened and she began not going when she went to get a masters degree. This time frame sort of fits though."

"Wait what?" I asked, I grew dizzy. "Well that incident was around six years ago. So was your accident..." I passed out on the floor.

I could hear Nobu calling my name...

What is this...?

It's dark? But it feels moist and wet.

"Kaito we...might not ever see each other again."

That voice...Its her!

Tears were lightly falling onto my hand.

"I don't want to loose you."

"Kaito I will never give up on you. Grow up to be a strong man; live well, be honest, and never forget who you are."

"Please don't forget me."

I sat up, "Kaito! You bastard! Don't do that sort of shit to me!" Nobu shouted, my eyes were still wide. "Orihime!" Nobu just stared at me.

"What?" I grabbed the year book. "Her name is Orihime Inoue..." I closed my eyes.

"She called me Kaito Inoue before? Did my name change?"

"Now were getting somewhere! Dude I feel like this is some drama! Or even better! Were like those american detective's from CSi."

I ran my hand through my hair, "wait, damn it, where could I call for that sort of information..." I trailed off.

"I remember talking to a lady before while I was in the hospital...She gave me her number." I stood up and ran out, Nobu chased after me.

"Heeeyyy Kaitoo wait up!" Nobu yelled, I looked back "I'll meet you back at your house I need to get something!" I called.

I made it back at the house. The lights were on so they were home. I sighed and unlocked the door, I closed it quickly and walked through the hall towards the living room. I tired not to make eye contact as I walked by.

"Where have you been Kaito? You haven't been home lately." I didn't look at her, "Why does it matter?" I said politely.

"Don't talk to your mother like that!" My father yelled, believe me this was our usual routine. I turned to look at them, "I just needed to pick something up, I didn't mean to disturb."

I walked away. "Your just like that pitiful women, you should learn to be like your sister." I smirked as I opened the door.

My step-mother actually went to the same high school as my parents, apparently she really hates my mother. My father beats me every time I defend my real mother.

I went to my closet in the back. I had old papers from when I was in the hospital, "Found it!" I pulled a paper with a number on it. I stuffed it in my pocket and I walked over to my window.

I slide it open and jumped out.

I knew it was late but I needed some answers.

I walked to a park and sat on the bench.

I dialed the number.

ringgg ringgg ringgg

"Hello?"

My heart frozen.

"Hello?" she said again,

I coughed, "Um, Hi are you Oda-san?"

"Yes?"

"My name is Kaito Minoru, can we talk?" I pulled my jacket closer.

"Its 10 pm Minoru-kun. Can't we talk tomorrow-?"

"No!" I cut off.

She sighed, "What's wrong?"

"I just need simple answers. I know you know. Who is Orihime Inoue? How do I know her? What happened?" I had so many questions to ask.

"Minoru-kun. Breathe. Now, ask me one question at a time." I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

"Was my name ever Kaito Inoue at one point?"

She was quiet, "Yes."

I tried again, "Am I related to Orihime Inoue?" I asked.

"No." She was only giving me simple answers.

"Who is she to me?" I asked. There was a long silence, I waited quietly.

"I don't think this is something we should be speaking over through phone. We can talk tomorrow-"

"Please." I cut off, "I need to know, can you imagine living for six years not really knowing who you really are? Knowing that somethings missing but you don't know what?" I closed my eyes as I waited for an answer.

"Where are you?"

"I'm at the park by Oji-sans Ramen. I'll be waiting for you at the entrance." I said as I hung up. I stood up as I began walking.

I didn't notice I began to shake. I stood in the cold for an hour. I kept looking at my cell phone, It was going on to 11:30.

I sighed as I pulled my jacket closer. I saw a women dressed in all black walked towards me.

"Oda-san?" I asked.

She nodded as she began walking with me. We walked to a bench, "I was very surprised when you called me." She said honestly.

"I just barely remembered when you gave me your number back in the hospital." She nodded as she looked up at the sky. She looked the same, short dark hair and black rimmed glasses.

"I see your regaining your memory." I turned to look at her, "I have amnesia?" I asked. She nodded,

"Your father told me to never speak to you of the truth" I glared at the sky, "He does know something." I said with anger.

"I made a promise though before him, with Inoue-san to tell you the truth if you gained some memory of her."

I waited for her to start to tell me everything.

Oda-san left an hour ago, she answered everything I asked. So many emotions were going through me. Hate, sadness, regret, happiness...

Tears streamed as I sat on the bench in the cold. I hated myself for hurting Orihime so much, I regretted not looking for her sooner.

"Don't hate your father and do something rash. It won't turn back time." I ignored that "Where is she now?" I asked.

She looked at my sadly, "I don't know."

I'll find you...I promise Orihime!

"Kaito! What happened? You just ran off and haven't came back for hours!" Nobu yelled as he looked at me.

I couldn't face him; I just stared at the floor. He didn't say anything as he let me lay on his bed. He just sat down on the chair and started playing the acoustic guitar.

I curled up to hide my face.

"I hurt her Nobu. I hurt her so much..." He just listened quietly as I confessed everything. I felt so powerless.

"I have amnesia thats why I couldn't remember her. My dad took me away from her and she suffered all because I couldn't say anything or do anything about it."

It was quiet for awhile, I calmed down as I sat up to look at Nobu. "I'm going to find her Nobu, but you helped me so much...How can I repay you?" He stopped playing.

"Anything?" he asked. I nodded, he started playing again as he smiled. "Continue singing Kaito. Don't forget that."

"Hey what are you guys doing still up?" the teenage boy walked over to the bed by me and sat down.

"You guys aren't doing anything I should be worried about right?" I glared at him while Nobu swung at him.

"Shut the hell up Kaede!" He dodged as he fell. "Ow my ass. Nobu its too late at night to be messing around you jackass!" He pulled one of the yearbooks from under him and his eyes widen.

"Orihime-chan!" Nobu and I both looked at him. I grabbed him by the collar, "What do you know about her?" I demanded, he put his hands up. "Dude chill the fuck out. I just barely met her!"

I glared as I let go. He fixed his tee shirt and glared back, "I met her at your little concert earlier, all I know is her name."

Nobu scratched the back of his head. "So you did see her Kaito." I groaned, "I don't care now! I just need to find her!"

Kaede looked at me and pointed, "Hey bastard I saw her first!" Nobu put his hand on his shoulder, "Dear little brother, Kaito saw Orihime years before you."

Orihime POV

Me and Ichigo have been talking frequently seeing each other for lunch and talking about old times. It seemed like we were growing closer in a way.

I haven't told Tatsuki that I was speaking to Ichigo again. I knew she'd take it the wrong way if I did tell her.

My phone was vibrating; I pulled my purse out to see the number. For some reason my heart skip a beat when Ichigo called.

"Hello?"

"Orihime I'm sorry I have to cancel lunch today."

"Oh its no problem!" I looked down as I felt disappointed.

"Well maybe next time. Well I gotta go Bye."

"Bye..."

I sighed as I hung up. I put a hand under my chin as I lazily dazed off. I stood up and peaked outside my office.

"Yes Inoue-sama?" I flinched as I was spotted. "Bring your paperwork in my office with you Ryuu-kun."

He followed suit as he walked into my office and closed the door. "Did you want to work together Inoue-sama?" He asked, I waved my hand. "There's no need for formalities with me Ryuu-kun."

He nodded "As you wish then Orihime." I smiled.

"Are you having any sort of troubles?" He asked, I looked at him and sighed.

"Well lately I've been seeing an old friend of mine. I'm just not sure how things are going to turn out at the moment." He looked somewhat surprised.

"Pardon me, I've just never heard you ever talk about men troubles." I giggled, "Thats because I never had men troubles Ryuu-kun."

He nodded, "Well in my honest opinion I'd think anybody would fall in love with you. But if things aren't going anywhere maybe you need to make a move and attack." I stared at him for a minute silently.

He blushed and looked away, "What is it?" I smiled, "I just didn't think you would be this good at giving advice."

He ran a hand through his black hair and turned red. I giggled again.

Me and Ichigo started to have lunch less and less and we started to get distant again. "What if he found another women Ryuu-kun?"

"You don't know until you try. Let's go get some lunch before we start on the topic, I'm here for you."

I nodded, My office phone rang. "Oh one moment Ryuu-kun." He nodded.

"Inoue-sama do you have a moment?"

I sat down, "Yes what is it?"

"There is a boy in the lobby that keeps asking to see you. Would you wish for us to call security?"

I sighed, "Well send him up."

"Yes."

I looked up "I'm sorry Ryuu-kun I can't go to lunch. You can go without me today." He nodded,

"You sure?" he asked I smiled as I waved my hand "I'll be fine."

I sat down and looked out the window as I waited.

"Inoue-sama, the boy is here." one of my assistants called from the other side of my double doors.

"Yes, let him in." I continued to look out the window as I heard footsteps and the door close again.

"Are you Orihime Inoue?" A voice asked, It sounded familiar.

I turned around in my chair.

My eye's widened as I started at the boy before me. My heart seemed to skip a beat as I stared at the tall boy before me. "You...your that boy from the concert!"

He was shaking, I grew confused.

"Yes...I think you know me. My name is Kaito Minoru." My mouth dropped as I looked up at his eye's to see violet.

I put a hand over my mouth as my eyes began to water.

"What are you doing here?" I whispered. "I-I remember Orihime, I remember everything." I closed my eye's trying to hold back my tears.

I stood up, as my heart began to ache. "Y-you shouldn't be here Kaito. Please go home." I said as I pushed him out the office.

I caught a quick glance at him, his face was hurt. I closed my doors quickly.

I slid down as I tried to hold myself together.

My heart got heavier ever step Kaito took as he walked away.

I wanted to chase after him so badly. He finally remembered me and I should be happy but I'm so scared he'll leave me again. That boy has the capability to turn me completely suicidal without him.

I didn't go to lunch after that, I just drowned my self into paperwork as I tried not to think about it.

I left earlier than usual and went to the supermarket. I bought two huge bottles of expensive liquor and took it home.

I drank. A lot.

I didn't want to remember I saw him today. That I hurt him with my selfishness, I just want to drink till I think its all just one huge dream to get my hopes up.

I just want to forget that face he made. Of such sadness that I betrayed him.

I'm running away, I knew that. But sometimes to survive reality you need to do that.

I started to cry harder. 'God don't play these awful games, I don't want to hurt him.'

My phone began to ring. I looked at the caller ID, I wasn't nearly sober enough to talk to Ichigo.

"H-hello?"

"Hey Orihime are you free tomorrow? I just wanted-"

"Y-yeah I'm free." I stuttered as I cut him off.

"Are you OK?"

"I'm great! I'll see you tomorrow then!"

Today was my day off as I walked to the cafe by my apartment. I would of driven but I didn't trust myself. I still didn't feel fully sober from how much I drank last night.

I tried to walk as steadily as possible as I walked inside. I wore a floral white and pink fitting skirt and white tee to finish it off.

I sat down on a random seat. The door opened and I instantly saw tangerine, "Hey Orihime!"

I smiled as I waved, "I saw you walked in, we're outside so lets go."

My smile vanished as he turned and I followed. "We're?" I mumbled. He turned back to look at me, "So, I wanted you to be the first to meet her."

My heart fell to the floor after that. I tried to keep a poker face as I smiled at him, "Oh, who?"

He moved aside and my eye's laid upon a petite small girl with long black hair. "Ru-

"Her name is Ai, Ai meet my old friend from high school Orihime." she smiled I didn't know what to say. I didn't want to shake her hand I just wanted to run away and say why I bother anymore.

I felt like tears were going to come but suddenly I felt someone pull me by the hand. I didn't know what was happening as my tears were clouding my eyes.

I silently cried as the stranger continued to pull me by the hand like a mother would do to their crying child.

"Who are you?" the person was silent as we stopped walked. I looked around and noticed that we were in a park.

"You don't need that bastard." I recognized that voice as I instantly pulled my hand from his grip. "Why were you there?" I demanded.

I couldn't see his face that well from the tears. "Why are you here before me? To hurt me again? Just like everyone else? Your just going to leave me again so why bother?" I yelled.

I was pulled into a hug, I struggled as I tried to break free. But he tighten his grip, my eyes widen as I noticed he was stronger than me.

"Please, just listen to what I have to say." I began to cry silently as I listened.

"After the accident I used to have small flashes of you, I didn't know what they were. I thought they were just a fragment of my imagination. But they grew stronger overtime."

I began to shake as I wanted to fall but he was supporting me holding my balance.

"Orihime it took me six years just to know that you were real. It was our bond that was so strong that made me remember, but I also knew that you'd probably hate me."

I grew dizzy, "I don't want to leave you this time, no matter what; thick or thin I'll always come back to you."

"I just don't want you to hate me anymore, I already hate myself. I'm sorry I'm so selfish but out of all the people I rather have the whole world hate me than you."

Was it the liquor?

Or was I dreaming? It seemed surreal.

"Orihime!" his voice yelled.

Okay guys, I think this is all I can come up with for now. My brain is completely fried! I'm at a writers block: /

I can't really think what to include next or what should happen next? Maybe you all can help me? What would you want to happen? Or what do you think will happen? My ideas are running thin on this one.

I will update in a few months (or sooner) when I decide what will happen next. Stay Tuned!

REMEMBER YOUR COMMENTS KEEPS ME GOING: )
