Hi! I decided to do a forth (And last!!) part to the series that contains Unspoken, Unheard, Untold and now this one, Untouched.

Well, thanks for all the reviews and I hope you enjoy this one!

Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach or the characters. I also do not own the song. It is Hold me in You Arms by Rick Astley.

(Untouched) I Will Hold You

She falls to the ground, her knees giving out beneath her. Her white dress spreads out around her knees as she looks down at her hands.

They are covered in blood.

His blood.

We've been trying for a long time
To say what we want to say
But feelings don't come easy to express in a simple way
But we all have feelings; we all need loving

She lets her tears fall without even thinking about it. The small, crystal-like drops run down her cheeks and fall off her face, hitting the asphalt road and mixing with the rain that is pouring down on top of her. She lifts her face to the sky, letting the rain fall onto her soft skin. She doesn't bother to close her eyes, and now the cold, wet rain mixes with her salty tears.

He hurt himself again trying to protect her. He had stepped out in front of her and taken the blow that was meant for her. As he fell to the ground, his life slowly fading, he had whispered the words she would never forget.

"I'll protect you . . . no matter what . . ."

But she wishes that he wouldn't. She wishes that he would just live his life, and forget about her. But she knows that he can't.

And who would be the fool to say, that if you...
Hold me in your arms, I won't feel better
If you hold me in your arms, we can brave this storm together

So, as she sits in the rain, with his blood slowly slipping off of her hands as she let's the cold water wash over her, she cries.

He is laying a few feet away, his injuries not totally healed, but they are better. He hasn't moved since she finished healing him. But as she lets the loud, hard sobs wrack her body, she sees him struggle to his feet.

Herhead drops and she closes her eyes as she slumps down, her tears coming faster than ever.

We both know there's a problem , a problem that we've got to face
So put your trust in me, no one's ever gonna take your place

He walks over and drops down beside her, taking her small, fragile body into his arms. She doesn't resist as he pulls her close to him. They are both soaked to the skin with the rain, and they are both covered in his blood.

"I will always protect you, I promise. But please don't cry, Rukia. Please," he whispers, lifting his hand and placing his hand on her cheek, using the pad of his thumb to wipe her tears away. "No matter what, I'll protect you."

'Cos we all have a problem, we all have fears
But there's got to be a way
Yes we all have feelings, we all need loving
And you would be a fool to say, that if you...
Hold me in your arms, I won't feel better
If you hold me in your arms, we can brave this storm together

She doesn't move from his arms.

It's been so long since she's seen him.

It's been a year. A whole year since she left. And as soon as she comes back, he nearly dies protecting her.

"I've missed you so much, Rukia," he whispers.

"I've missed you, too, Ichigo."

You only have to hold me, touch me to make me feel so good
You only have to hold me, feel me to make me feel the way you know I should

And he smiles. His eye is still covered in blood, and she can see the large bruise on his cheek, but he smiles.

"I love you, Rukia," he whispers. He said it so quietly that he doesn't think she heard.

But she did.

And she smiles, too.

"I love you, too . . ."

His smile grows as he gently kisses her. When he breaks the kiss, she lays her head on his chest.

"Let's go home," he suggests, standing to his feet and bringing her with him. She smiles and nods, taking his hand in hers.

. . .I will protect you . . . and when you're sad, or when you cry . . . I will hold you . . .

Hold me in your arms . . .
Hold me in your eyes . . .

Well, that was the last in the four-part series. Whatcha think? Not many people had reviewed these last few chapters, but oh, well. :D I hope everyone likes it!

And I'm now taking suggestions! I have ideas to write, but I'm saving them for next months collection. So, whoever suggests the neatest idea will have it written down!

Please Review!
