Hello again~33 If you're just starting to read…that's kinda silly, don't you think? owo The other three chapters are already up…but hey, whatever sugars your cookie. Okay, well short recap o everything that has happened so far. I met Suko and Renji at school and they invited me to go with them to get ice cream. After getting the okay from my mom, I went with them, only to meet up with a guy that I had seen before. We all stayed together as a group, but then my mom wanted to talk to them. She threatened them if they wouldn't leave me alone, so Suko stole me away and is letting me live at her house. ^^ We continued hanging out with Grimmjow…and I slowly realized something…something that scared me slightly…and you're gonna find out what that is~ Enjoy ^^

Chap 4: Confession

"Suko-Chan, I think I…like him."

"Who?"

…

"Grimmjow-Kun."

I can't believe that I had actually said it. I knew I was blushing, but the problem is…I don't know how to handle these things. Mom never taught me about them, so I was completely in shock. Suko stared at me as if I had said the world biggest secret to everyone, or at least the wrong people. She blinked a few time before placing a hand on my shoulder, moving the other over her eyes, and said, "Kimi…do you even know what you're talking about? Tell me how you feel…exactly." I glanced away, fearing I had said something wrong. I didn't want Suko to be mad at me, but…why would she? Maybe it's just my imagination.

"W-Well…Whenever I'm around him…I get all flustered-" I began.

"You're always flustered Kimino." Suko inturrupted, holding up a finger, trying to prove a point.

I shook my head, "N-Not in my usual way…wait…I-I'm always flustered?! Ah…uhm, well…I get flustered to the point where I can't even look at him. And whenever he talks, I feel like he's talking directly to me…even if he's talking with you or Renji-Kun. Any physical contact makes me blush, and I don't know how to talk to him anymore. It's like…every time I try, I'm so afraid I'll say something to upset him, that I just can't, and I'll walk away. N-Not without appologizing first of course…but still. I don't understand why I'm having these feelings. Suko-Chan…what's wrong with me?" I explained, gripping a portion of my shirt with my hand. I looked down at the ground and clenched my eyes. For some reason, I felt horrible. Like I had done something to Grimmjow and not even realized it.

Suko placed a hand on my head and spoke, "Kimi…what you're feeling, it's normal. How do you think I feel about Renji? The way I feel about him, is the same way you feel about Grimmy. But you never know when the opportunity will pass for you to tell him how you feel. You can't keep it all bottled up forever. You'll miss out on a lot of things." I looked up at her, confusion written all over my face. "S-So…it's not bad that I feel like this…?" I asked, and Suko blinked. She pulled her hand away and started laughing. Oh man, I was so confused. Why was she laughing? I didn't say anything funny…Did I? She tried calming herself and when she finally got her laughter under control she said, "Kimi, of course it's okay. There's nothing bad about it. It's totally normal. Didn't your mom teach you about this stuff?"

I slowly shook my head and moved one of my hands in front of my mouth. "N-No…she never told me about this stuff. S-So I don't know what exactly I'm suppposed to do." I said, looking away. Again Suko blinked and she bent to look at my face, "Kimi…do you know what sex is?" She bluntly asked, though her tone was serious. I averted my eyes and said, "Y-Yah…Of course I do…" Though the truth be told, I had no idea what that was. I remember asking mom about it once, cause someone at she had talked about it. She said that I didn't need to know just yet, and to just stay her pure, innocent Kimi-Chan. Suko sighed, backing up a bit and said, "Geez, I knew you had a crappy mother…but seriously?"

"M-My mom isn't a crappy mother! She's the best mom ever!" I quickly said, unaware of what she had been doing in secret, plotting to separate me from my friends. Suko didn't think it was wise to tell me what my mom had been doing so soon, so she just shrugged and said, "Well, looks like I'm gonna have to be your teacher. Come on Kimi, sit down." She motioned for my to move by her, and I did. She proceeded to tell me all that I needed to know about the world, things that I never thought possible. It got me wondering why mom never told me any of these thing. But then, Suko went onto explain what sex was…oh buddy. I don't think I even want to think about that stuff.

By the end of her explaination, my eyes were wide with confusion and a hint of fear. I didn't want to be raped! Suko saw this and quickly tried to calm me down. "Kimino, you're never going to be out of any of our sights. So don't worry! Nothing is going to happen to you. And Grimmy…he's not that type of guy. But Kimi…you should tell him soon, find out if her feels the same." She said, as I looked up to her and nodded. Only problem…how to tell him. Suko said the timing needed to be right, but how was I supposed to know when that was? There was no sense in worrying about it now, it was late and we were meeting up with the guys tomorrow. I thanked Suko for telling me the things that my mother never did and I headed off to sleep.

The next day, Suko and I woke up and got ready quickly. Thanks to our talk we were running a bit late. We heard a knock at the door, the door opening and Suko's Uncle yelling, "Oi! There's a pineapple and a blue haired freak here for you girls!" We both paused in getting ready and had ourselves a small laugh. As we walked out of our rooms and went to the door, we saw Uncle making fun of Renji, while Renji just stood there, angerviening the whole time. Grimmjow was looking off, he looked bored. 'Hopefully I can tell him today. But…I still don't know how…or what to say…" I thought, looking down at the ground, as Suko walked over to her Uncle and pushed him away by the face. "Hey Renji! Hi Grimmy!" She said, Uncle rubbing his face, muttering and then walking away. "Sup babe? Saved us from your freaky Uncle." Renji said, planting a small kiss on Suko's lips. I just can't help it, they are so cute together. All Grimmjow did was hold up a hand, but then he asked, "So what are our plans for today?"

Before anyone had a chance to say anything, Suko blurted out, "We're going to a park. It's such a nice day." She looked at Renji and Grimmjow, just daring them to argue against it. It must have worked cause both of them nodded in agreement. Suko looked to me, smiling and said, "Are you up for it Kimi?" I eagerly nodded, parks are so nice. I hoped that the one we were going to didn't have anyone else there. That was it would just be our group. So we all headed off, Renji and Suko hand-in-hand.

We got to the park and to my delightment, there was nobody there. My eyes widened as I saw the swings, what can I say? I am the youngest out of our group. So I quickly made my way over to them, sat down, and kicked my legs a bit, the whole while I had a huge smile on my face. Renji blinked and nudged Grimmjow, "Oi, go. Weren't you the one saying you have to wait for the right time? Well, she's happy right now, so get." He said, as Suko pushed him towards me. Grimmjow glanced back at Renji and Suko, who were giving him thumbs up, and continued to walk towards me. By this time I had stopped swinging, and I was just sitting there, looking up at the sky. He sat down in the empty seat next to me and looked at the ground. The sound of the chains moving caught my attention, and I looked over at the blue haired guy that had been making me feel the way I had. I looked over to where Suko and Renji were, only to see that they weren't there. They were gone!

I quickly looked to the ground. What was I supposed to do? Well, I didn't have to do anything, cause Grimmjow spoke, "Kimino…take a walk with me?" I slowly looked to him and nodded, "Sure." I said, standing up. I followed him to the middle of the field when he suddenly stopped. I almost bumped into him, so I looked up at him to see why he had stopped. He was looking at the ground, it seemed like he wanted to say something. "Uh-Uhm…Grimmjow-Kun? Are you okay? What's wrong?" I asked, walking around him so I could see his face. When he lifted his head, I could swear I saw a slight blush across his face.

"I'm fine Kimino. I'm just trying to figure out the best way…" He said, trailing off, looking off again. I tilted my head a bit, "The best way…to…?" I asked, causing him to look back at me. He sighed, "Alright. Kimino…I'm just going to tell you, I don't want to drag it out anymore. I like you Kimi…in more than a friend way." He said. My heart skipped a beat, did he really just say that? I felt the heat rise to my cheeks and I shakily and quietly said, "N-No way…" Grimmjow looked away, the silence seemed to drag on forever. That was, until I finally gathered up the courage to say, "Gr…Grimmjow-Kun…I-I like you too…" He looked at me, almost a bit shocked. All I could do was just nod.

Then I felt his hand gently ouch me check, causing my face to redden. I looked at him, and saw that he was hesitating. As if he was asking me if it was okay to continue. I took a shaky breath in and quietly said, "I-It's okay…" That was all that he needed to hear. He nodded his head and slowly leaned in, while I stood there, not knowing what to do. But then it happened, the one moment in time that I will cherish forever.

Grimmjow gently pressed his lips to mine in a sweet, yet romantic kiss. I let myself give into instinct and melted into the kiss, my eyes drifting close. Grimmjow sloly wrapped his arms around my waist, just as I felt my knees starting to wobble. Our height difference was kinda a problem, so I leaned up on my tiptoes, just to wrap my arms around his neck. The world seemed to stop, time wasn't a factor anymore. He pulled away slightly and placed his forehead on mine, a small smile on his lips. "Kimino, I'm glad I told you."

"Me too Grimmjow-Kun…Me too."
