Hitsugaya's POV
Sharing a room with Karin….might…..not be so bad… Have I mentioned that I'm too good to hate my sister? Well that might end. Today. Hopefully she didn't put a wiretap in the room.
Karin was taking her second shower for the day while I searched the room for any wiretap. I don't want my sister to get any potential blackmail material. She'll use it, trust me.
"Well, that wasn't one of the worst outings of my life." Karin said, coming out of the bathroom, fully dressed mind you.
"Was it one of the best?" I said smiling. I just loved to tease her. She would have such a cute expression when she got flustered.
"It made the top five, and don't turn this into a Twilight moment." She said.
"You've actually read that book?"
"Haha. Do me a favor and wipe that silly smile off your face. And yes, Breaking Dawn too." She jumped onto the bed. "What are you looking for?"
"Remote." That was honestly the first thing that came to mind.
"You mean the one that's by the lamp right here?" she said. I looked up and she had the remote in hand.
"Hmph."
"Why does this feel like some sick honeymoon?" she asked.
"Maybe because Koyuki wants it to feel like a honeymoon. Look, she even ordered chocolates to tease us." I nodded over to the table on the other side of the room.
"One day, I'm gonna get back at that girl." She said.
"You can try." Hmmm, all of a sudden I feel like kissing her. Maybe I could pull it off with a spur-of-the-moment excuse? Nah. We were watching CSI right now anyway (I didn't even now they had that show here).
"Oh! I just had an idea." She said all of a sudden.
"What?"
"A way to get back at Koyuki. Let's order room service a lot, pamper ourselves and put it on her tab!" she said. I just laughed. Was that a great idea? I wonder.
"What if she get's back at you?" I asked.
"I'll say it was your idea. She'll believe me." She said.
"Right." I pulled her face toward mine and kissed her. She didn't seem surprised.
"What was that for?"
"Spur of the moment." I said.
"Hmmm, ok then." She said. Can't believe I got away with it.
"You're not thinking "I can't believe I got away with it" right?" she asked.
"No…" what, could she read minds?
"Hmph, yeah right." She grabbed a pillow and tackled me. I was caught by surprise ok! I let her tackle me. Anyway, to counter act I flipped her over so I was on top, the pillow still on my face.
"Mmpf. What, I not allowed to kiss you anymore?" I asked.
"No. Actually just the opposite." She said. She dropped it, and pulled me into a sweet kiss. So it was a setup. I shouldn't let her hand out with Koyuki too much.
Just when we were about to make out, guess who decides to drop by. Of course it's all our favorite character! And company! I just knew there had to be a wiretap in here some where…
"Koyuki!" Karin said. She pushed me off of her, causing me to fall off the bed.
"Ow." I simply said.
"What do you want?" Karin asked.
"More importantly, what were you two doing?" Renji said with one of those stupid smiles. Ugh.
"I'll say it again. What do you want? I'm busy." Karin said.
"Obviously. I just wanted to ask if you wanted to play some tennis before we go back to Japan tomorrow." Koyuki said. I noticed her racket.
"Oh!" Karin said. "Well you should have said so sooner. Of course!" she extended her hand to help me up. "Come on. I was wondering how good you play."
"As if you need anymore showers." I said. She clicked her tongue and smacked my head.
"I have my racket, do you?" she asked.
"Yes."
"Then lets go!" she said excitedly. I grabbed my racket. While Karin was preoccupied with talking to Matsumoto, I had my own little conversation with Koyuki.
"Where is it?" I asked. She knew exactly what I was talking about.
"Where is what?" she said innocently. That never worked on me. Ok, maybe sometimes, but I was furious now.
"Just tell me." She finally had a smile (the one that looks like Gin's) on her face.
"As if. I'm sure you know exactly where it is anyway." She said, cleaning her nails.
"Could you at least give me a hint?" I asked. She tapped her chin in thought.
"Ok. It was a souvenir I bought here. I showed it to you when we were on our way back to the hotel. Don't you remember?" she asked. I did have a faint memory of it, but I probably wasn't paying attention when she showed it to me. Great. She was spying and taunting me.
There was a tennis court near the hotel. It wasn't out of the ordinary, just your regular green ground. Koyuki wanted to spar a little with Karin, so I was just watching in the sidelines. Karin wasn't so bad. Her backhand was better than I expected. Though Koyuki wasn't really playing to her best, like she usually does (trust me you can tell).
"What to play with Karin? I'm pretty much done." Koyuki said. I nodded.
Karin's POV
We're back at the hotel now. This evening was better than I thought it would be. I was taking yet another shower. I swear if Koyuki walks in here and asks if I want to go take a late swim in the pool… never mind. When I was done in the bathroom I saw Toshiro taking a nap on the bed.
"You can use the bath now." I said, touching his shoulder to wake him.
"Yawn. 'Kay." He said.
"You're already tired? It's only 11:05PM" I sarcastically said. He just smiled.
I was wondering if he was going to get back at me for beating him at a round of tennis. Honestly I didn't expect it, but a fair game is a fair game. I touched the bracelet on my wrist. I had my suspicions when Koyuki gave it too me, but she said she wanted me to have it as "a souvenir from me to you". And it looked pretty expensive, so I kept it anyway.
Toshiro walked out of the bathroom. Man that was fast. Oh, and did I mention he was topless!? So this was how he was gonna play it. Embarrass me to the high heavens. I grabbed the pillow I used as a previous weapon and threw it at him.
"You jerk." I said.
"Thanks, I needed this pillow." He put it over his face.
"Your gonna get a cold sleeping like that." I said.
"I'll take it for your gawking face." He grinned.
"Tch." I ruffled his hair, not like it matters. He told me it spikes naturally. Yeah right. I bet if I searched his suit case I'd find a ton of hair gel. Though his hair never felt stiff or looked over shiny. That's what hair gel does to your hair, by the way. Just soft and snowy…oh great I was gawking. Good thing he's asleep.
"Hey."
"Yeah?" I said.
"Where'd you get that bracelet?" he asked. So he noticed it.
"Uh, from Koyuki why?"
"Can I see it?"
"Um…sure." I took it off and handed it to Toshiro. He examined it a bit, and then the heart charm caught his eye. He bit his lip to keep from laughing.
"You might want to cover your ears." He whispered. I did, and the next moment he screamed at it. I heard another scream from the room next to ours. Wait…wasn't that Koyuki's room? Then I heard someone running down the hallway, and Koyuki barged in with headphones around her neck.
"You bastard!" she screamed. Toshiro just had a smile on his face.
"That's what you get. Here." He threw the bracelet at her, and she obviously caught it. She had a really mad expression.
"Ugh…Why you! Stealing my fun…stupid, stupid, stupid!!" I heard her mumble as she left.
"What was that all about?" I asked.
"Nothing you would want to know about. Hey, if you say "I love you" I'll let you use my arm as a pillow."
"No." What was that all of a sudden?
"Well I've said it, just never heard you say it." He said.
"I'll say it sooner or later…" I said.
"What? Are you embarrassed?" he said. I was this close from ripping that stupid smile off his face.
"Of course not." I said.
"It's not that hard."
"I'll say it when I want to."
"Hmmm…Well ok." He said, and went to sleep again.
"Seriously, put a shirt on before you catch a cold."
"Right, right." He got up and put a black sweater on, rolling up the sleeves.
"Happy?"
"I'm just saying…if you catch a cold so suddenly Koyuki might hound me." I said. He didn't respond, and just yawned and went to sleep again. It was officially one in the morning… I touched his sleeping face. Damn, why did he have to look so cute? His eyes opened.
"You look like you want to say something." He said.
"…" He waited a little more before closing his eyes again. I was going to have to swallow my pride for this one.
"I love you." I whispered. Ok………….not as bad as I thought. Toshiro chuckled a little. He wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed my forehead.
"You two are evil geniuses." I said.
"We prefer to be called 'prodigies'" he said.
"Hmph." I rested my head on his shoulder. Well, at least I got some rest that night.
When I woke up I heard some very annoying laughter. Trying to ignore it……..not working. I opened my eyes and saw Koyuki and Matsumoto looming over me.
"Ugh…What do you want so early in the morning?" I asked. Matsumoto was the one who answered.
"Well, for one it's already 9:30AM. We came here to wake you up, but we found something more entertaining." She was holding her hand over her mouth to keep from laughing.
"What was that?" I asked.
"You." Koyuki said pointing to me. I was a bit dazed because I had just woken up, but then I realized that Toshiro was still hugging me.
"Oh! Shit, we're going to be late….. whoops, sorry Toshiro." I had accidentally pushed him off me…and off the bed.
"Why do I keep getting hurt?" he said.
"You two should hurry up and get ready, or we're going to miss our flight." Renji said. Man, these people…I'm going to….ugh!
"I still can't believe that you two actually shared the bed. I expected one of you to be on the floor, preferably Nii-chan." Koyuki said. We were already in the terminal, just getting to the gate.
"I'm never going to trust you with getting me a room ever again. You just love to scheme don't you?" I said.
"I'm not the scheming one. Matsumoto is. I'm just your regular everyday prodigy." She said. How did she ever get such a perfect poker face? I bet she was a killer at poker.
"So you live in Karakura, right?" Koyuki asked.
"Yup."
"That's good, so maybe we'll come visit you." I smiled at her, not really sure whether to think that would be nice, or if I should evacuate.
"Flight 348, now boarding." The intercom screeched. Oh, did I not tell you the bad news? We were all on different flights. Mine was boarding first. I gathered my things and got ready to leave. Toshiro stood next to be while we waited in the line. I couldn't find anything to talk about… has this happened before? Before I knew it, it was almost time to leave.
"No good bye kiss, huh?" I said. What in the world was I spouting now?
"I'll give you one the next time we meet, 'kay?" he said smiling a little.
"Ok then" Oh god did I just say "ok then"?
"Waaaaaaaah! I'm gonna miss you sooooo much Karin!!!" Koyuki said. I almost fell over when she hugged me. "Come here Toshiro! Group hug!"
"I'd rather no--"of course he didn't get a chance to finish. Koyuki always put us in this kind of situation.
"So we'll see you later?" Matsumoto said. I nodded. Koyuki's hug still strangling me. Renji had to pry her off me of course.
"Bye Karin, Mr. Kurosaki!" Koyuki yelled as we got on the plane. I couldn't help but look back.
"Oh wait! Here, Karin, take this with you!" she threw the bracelet that was rigged (Toshiro eventually told me). "I still want you to have it. And don't worry I took the wiretap off!" she yelled.
"Really?" I said back.
"Of course! Would I lie to you?!" I didn't have time to tell her the many responses that popped in my head. I notice that Toshiro waved good bye. Speechless too huh? I waved back. And that was it.
When I got on the plane I looked at the bracelet, just to make sure that she really hadn't put anything on it. Maybe not a wiretap, but maybe something else. I notice there was a new charm on the bracelet, a locket. I looked at what was inside. It was a picture of me and Toshiro. She took it this morning while we were asleep, naturally. We looked kinda like their parents together. Hmmm…this is probably the first time I didn't want to smack Koyuki…
"Karin! Over here!" I looked over and saw my twin sister Yui and my brother Ichigo. I walked over.
"So how was your "vacation"?" Ichigo said.
"A lot better than I expected and way better that you think it was." I said.
"And why was that?" Ichigo said with a weird expression. He probably thought it was weird that I enjoyed a trip with my dad.
"You'll find out sooner or later." I said back.
hopefully it wasn't disappointing... review if you want me to make a second series. i will if i get any
