Chapter three already, huh? Wow. ^^; Okay, so just so you know, this chapter starts about a month after our first encounter. Not a lot of exciting stuff happened- Oh! Renji asked Suko out~ ^^ I was so happy for them 3 Well, anyways…here you go!

Chap 3: Defiance

It was after school again, Suko, Renji, and I were all waiting for Grimmjow to walk up. As we saw him round the corner, I got a text message from my mom, 'Come home please…bring your friends.' …it was pretty clear. I looked at my three friends and asked, "Mom wants us all over…at my house. Are you okay with that?"

They all nodded, I smiled and started walking home. I didn't hear the conversation they were having. "Kimi's mom is too controlling, but…I don't think Kimi sees it. She's just a pawn in her mother's hand." Suko said sadly, watching me skip along, stopping in front of my house. "C'mon guys! ^^ Mom's waiting!" I said, I was really excited. I really hope mom likes everyone. I opened the door to be greeted by my mom, grabbing me and hugging me tight. "Welcome home Kimi-Chan~3" She said, as I hugged her back, happy. "Hi mom. ^^ You remember Suko-San, Renji-San and Grimmjow-San?" I asked as they each waved. Mom nodded and said, "Kimi-Chan, would you like to prepare some snacks for our guests?" I nodded eagerly and tupped off to the kitchen saying, "Be right back!"

"She's so sweet…" Mom said, "But she has a problem…" She looked to Renji, Suko and Grimmjow. "That problem is you three. You threaten to ruin everything I've worked so hard for. So, stay away from Kimino-Chan. ^^*" Mom had an innocent/angry face. Suko blinked and from the kitchen I heard, "Hell no! You're a crappy ass mom and she's coming with us!" Suddenly Renji was behind me with Suko. "C'mon Kimi. We're gonna go pack your stuff." Suko said, quickly taking me to my room.

"Grimmy's holding off your mom, now pack...quickly." Renji said, glancing out my door. I had no clue what was going on but I packed. After I was done, Renji and Suko dragged me outside, Grimmjow close behind. "Uh…Uhm, Suko-San?" I asked, not knowing what to do. She looked at me and smiled, "Your mom said you could stay with me for a while." My eyes widened, "Like a sleepover?! *w*" I asked, looking up at her. She nodded, "Yep, exactly like a sleepover." Renji slowly took Suko's hand and gripped it, lovingly. She glanced at him and then leaned against him. "Mission accomplished." I think is what she said. I looked at Grimmjow to see that he was carrying all my stuff. "Eh…Grimmjow-San…o-o;; I-I can carry my stuff. ^^;;" I said, trying to take my bag. Grimmjow scooted away and smiled, "I've got it…and cut it out with the –San on our names…alright?"

I pouted slightly and crossed my arms. "W-Well…then h-have it y-your way…." I tried to say, in an uncaring way. I can't pull that off…-.-;;. Grimmjow shook his head as we started passing a store. I glanced in and froze. I quickly ran inside to buy what I had saw. "Eh-! Kimi?" I heard Suko's voice as I bowed to the cashier and tupped out. "Right here. I had to buy something." I said, digging around in the bag. By this time, Renji and Grimmjow had walked over as I pulled out bracelets. Blue, brown, red and yellow. I tied the brown and red ones together and put them on everyone's wrists'. I did the same with the blue and yellow. "Each color represents us. Brown is Suko-Sa…Suko-Chan…Red is Renji-Kun…Blue is for Grimmjow-Kun and yellow is for me. ^^ By tying them together I'm saying that Renji-Kun and Suko-Chan are together. ^^" I said, pointing to the red and brown ones.

"Then, the other one is for you and Grimmy, eh?" Suko asked, raising an eyebrow towards me. I quickly looked at her. "W-Well, we're the only two left. ^^;;;" I said, blushing slightly. Renji grinned and looked at Grimmjow, "Maybe you two should go out. I mean, we all hang out enough." He said, trying not to laugh. That earned him a glare from Grimmjow, as I lowered my head, quiet. I knew my face was red…I could feel it.

"C'mon now, we're here." Suko said, opening her house door. We walked in to hear a man's voice, "Suko, is that you?"

"Yah, and I brought friends. Kimi included!" She yelled back as we made our way to her room. This place was wonderful. I couldn't help but look around. I noticed Grimmjow set my bag down and I found out we were in Suko's room. It could be split in two, so Suko told me I'd be in the other room. Renji and Grimmjow decided to head home so they left, only after a really cute kiss between Renji and Suko. I just waved to Grimmjow and after they left I collapsed on the bed I would be using. Suko went along with things that she needed to get done, and I had time to think. Again my face heated, as I thought of Grimmjow. Suko walked up and asked, "Kimi? You okay? You're all red…" She sounded concerned.

I glanced at her and managed to say, "Suko-Chan, I think I…like him…"

"Who?"

…

"Grimmjow-Kun."
