Chapter 14: Eternal Rivals

Rukia P.O.V

"Ichigo Kurosaki is engaged to me now."

Senna continued to smirk, placing a freshly-manicured pale hand onto her jean-clad hip. I glared heatedly at her, my insides burning like a inferno. Stepping out of my seat abruptly, causing the chair to topple over, startled Senna as she jumped a little in her stance. This caused me to smirk. Good, I instilled some fear into her. I'm not the same frail girl I was back then. Stomping towards her, I grabbed her collar of her bright pink t-shirt. Her maple leaf-orange orbs widened as I glared up into hers.

"Listen, I don't get what kind of game you're trying to play, but try anything stupid and I'll beat the bloody fucking pulp out of your ugly-ass face. You got that bitch? I'm not the same cry baby back in grade school. So back the fuck off. Ichigo will never fall for a worthless piece of trash like you. I am fucking tired of your bullying ever since day one. So. Leave. Me. Alone." I accentuated the last three words as I released her paralyzed form and pushed her away harshly before giving one last icy glare before turning back to my table and fixed the chair. I reached into my purple suede clutch and placed a couple of bills onto the table. Feeling all the other customers eyes staring warily at me as the coffee shop got eerily silent, I walked away and went out the door. Clacking on the cement pavement, I took out my phone and texted Momo.

Sorry about leaving you in the restaurant. Something at work came up and I had to leave A.S.A.P. To make it up to you, I'll treat next time OK? :)

Rukia

I sighed as put my phone away. Looking up, I saw bright blue skies, clear of any clouds, a couple of pigeons flapping past by. Bringing my head back down, I felt my heart squeeze a bit painfully as I clenched my jaw.

"Ichigo Kurosaki is engaged to me now."

It wasn't true, right? I knew Senna was born into this world to get to me, but this time, the issue was pretty important. Ichigo is the only thing that truly made me happy ever since my mother passed away. To hear him being with let alone be engaged to another woman made my blood freeze over.

"I don't want to hear that." I mumbled as I stood and placed my hands over my face.

"I never want to hear that. Not ever." As tears pricked my eyes like needles and soon they fell down my cheeks. I sobbed.

Elsewhere...

"Rukia Kuchiki, I swear, I'm going to make you suffer for embarrassing me in public like that!" Senna growled as she kicked a innocent empty can harshly with her pointed heels. The damn midget of a bitch threatened her, then stormed off, giving her that look that made Senna seethe. Like she was better than her now. She absolutely despised it.

"Well, I can assist you with that if you desire." A smooth voice behind her spoke. Turning around quickly, Senna frowned at the shadows. Stepping out of the darkness, dark chocolate brown eyes gleamed with pure evil. Her eyes widened in recognition at the person in front of her.

"Sosuke Aizen." She gasped. He gave her a small smile, giving off the facade of a kind-hearted man.

"I heard the name of Rukia Kuchiki, sister of Byakuya Kuchiki, an...associate of mine. She is currently in love with my nephew, Ichigo Kurosaki. Though I find it quite endearing that my nephew has found someone he can love, I cannot allow him to be with Rukia Kuchiki. Ichigo was supposed to be arranged to have several candidate marriage meetings last week, but he did not show up. I was very displeased. This Rukia Kuchiki, I'm afraid, is having a serious impact on my nephews behavior. And I will not allow that." Aizen calmly stated as his eyebrows furrowed what seemed like annoyance. Senna lowered her eyes away from the man and turned her head away.

"...I hate her. I despised her, ever since we were both in grade school, she thought she was better than me because she was born into a high-class, rich family. She'll never understand what I had to do to get to where I am now, she always got what she wanted with the snap of her fingers. I fucking despise Rukia Kuchiki!" Senna ranted, fisting her hands tightly as they shook in concealed rage. She snapped her head back up to face Aizen, a sneer on her face.

"What do I need to do?" Aizen slowly smiled, dark chocolate brown eyes swirling menacingly.

There you are, I apologize for the shortness, due to the blackout, and I'm working on new stories. :D
