Rukia fluttered her eyes open as she woke up. It was warm, but too bad she woke up to a text. She rubbed her eyes and then sat up. She grabbed her phone wearily and pressed against the screen to see a text from Hitsugaya.
'How are you feeling?' Rukia realized right there, she had an enormous headache and she rubbed her temples as she buried her face into the sheets. It was soft…so much softer than her own…when did she get new blankets? Rukia opened her eyes to see that they weren't lavender, but they were blue, she didn't remember buying…new blankets. Rukia shot forward and looked around the room; it was a large room, so probably the master room of the apartment. She was lying in a four poster bed made out of mahogany. Her heavy lidded eyes searched to find pure white walls with a tint of blue in them, the nightstand, large and had a lamp. A couple of things that were put there just for looks, and there was a large desk placed in the far left right against a wall, near one of the five windows placed in the room. She lifted the blankets off of her and realized she was still in the dress she was from last night. When she remembered that she had a drinking contest with Tatsuki and…
She palmed her face as she went to go find the bathroom and when she looked at herself in the mirror, she found out all of her makeup had been cleaned neatly off her face. Her hair, was just the only problem, she took the brush out of her clutch that she had brought with her and straightened out her hair and reapplied blush and some mascara and eyeliner. She looked better and then made her way out of the bedroom.
She walked outside and the smell of freshly brewed black coffee invaded her nose and she walked quietly across the carpet, not even noticing the person sitting at the table, reading a newspaper, she picked up her shoes and was about to open the door when…
"Rukia where do you think you are going?" Hitsugaya asked as Rukia turned around and dropped her shoes to see Hitsugaya reading a newspaper and Rukia sighed.
"You scared me you idiot." Rukia said as she walked over to him and he gestured to the cup of coffee that was on the table as he put down the newspaper.
"Sorry, I had to wake you up; it's already eleven in the morning." Hitsugaya said as he watched Rukia almost drop the mug she was holding and quickly pull out her cell phone t and he watched in amusement as she opened her inbox and then sighed in relief when she saw she didn't have anything important.
"That's a good thing." Rukia breathed out as she looked up and saw Hitsugaya arching a brow and an amused smile suddenly plastered on his face. She sucked on her teeth and rolled her eyes.
"What are you laughing at?" Rukia asked, a little annoyed at his expression and he shook his head, his white spiked up hair moving with his head and he leaned back. Propping his head with both of his arms and closed his eyes.
"Just drink your coffee." He replied and Rukia rolled her eyes as she took a sip and when she finished she crawled over and kissed him before he plucked one eye open with a smirk. He saw her face was hovering right over his and kissed her back.
"What was that for?" Hitsugaya asked as Rukia chuckled as she retracted back and then got up and slipped on her shoes.
"I have to go, don't call me on my home, I'll walk there because it's only a five minute walk." Rukia as Hitsugaya rolled his eyes and Rukia walked out of his apartment and closed the door as she breathed in fresh air and smiled. Maybe, this day would turn out good.
An hour later:
Rukia walked in the park, in a simple kneel length gray dress and strappy heels and her appearance looked better before she had left his apartment. She walked and embraced the summer air but it was slowly turning into fall. She saw couples, holding hands but as Rukia passed by her, she saw how funny it was to see the girlfriends' faces turn into envy as their boyfriend passed a little glance at her before being jerked back to their side. Rukia walked and walked, her eyes slightly closed as the wind picked up a little and made her dress press against her thighs, the soft silk embracing the wind. She then heard her name being called and she turned to see Shuuhei waving at her from the bridge that ran over the small stream. She waved back and started walking towards him in small strides, but they were quick. She got there and Hisagi arched a brow at her.
"Oh come on, I don't get a hug from one of my friends which I haven't seen in a long time?" Hisagi said spreading his arms wide open and Rukia snorted as she went in to hug him.
"Stupid, you saw me last week." Rukia said as they let go of each other and Hisagi laughed.
"Well, I don't think it's wise to call your high school and college boyfriend stupid." Hisagi reminded and Rukia chuckled.
"First of all, that only lasted for like a year before I found out you liked Senna." Rukia said as she reminded him, tucking her hands behind her back and Hisagi laughed.
"By the way, get her to loosen up; she's been all tense around me lately after last weekend." Hisagi reminded and Rukia rolled her eyes with a slight smile.
"Maybe she's being self conscious if you attack her and then have a fun night." Rukia said as Hisagi laughed as he patted her shoulder.
"You have fun with that, alright Rukia, I'll see you around." Hisagi said as they hugged each other again and kissed each other on the cheek, friendly of course and then separated ways.
Rukia was unaware of the person/people, watching her and her friendly visit.
An hour later:
"Oh come on boss, you can't seriously think that, you just got here!" Matsumoto said and Hitsugaya glared at her and tossed the magazine in her face.
"Yeah, my ass, that's bullshit." He was pissed, incredibly pissed, when he saw the discriminating photo on the cover and a four page spread about it, Matsumoto neatly placed the magazine on his desk as he sat down and swiveled in it before he whipped out a pen.
"You know, she might have just been visiting, that's Hisagi, he was her college boyfriend, and he's happily dating someone else." Matsumoto pointed out and Hitsugaya let out a low growl as he scribbled his signature on the papers and had a secretary take them out, they were finished so fast, Matsumoto had last seen him like this when…
"Oh yeah, because those pictures totally represent a friendly visit in the park." Hitsugaya lashed out and Matsumoto put her hands on her hips, four fingers splayed on the tight, course business suit skirt. Her lips pursed into a scowl as she looked at her boss.
"You never know, those damn paparazzi will do anything for a photo of a Kuchiki and to destroy their family name, like Kariya did with that the business." Matsumoto said and Hitsugaya glared at her.
"Kariya is only doing best for his company." Hitsugaya said in defense for one of his best friends in the company with him, though Kariya was in second place and Hitsugaya was in first place.
"Yeah sure because catching your quote on quote 'friend' cheating with his secretary and presenting them to his wife was a generous act as a friend because he was helping them out, oh yeah, he is the best friend in the world." Matsumoto said, her voice dripping with sarcasm and Hitsugaya stopped writing and snorted and leaned back.
"You know, this thing could be real and you are just simply putting it as a friendly visit?!" Hitsugaya asked and Matsumoto sighed as she rolled up her purple silk blouse and then took out her phone and dialed Rukia's number.
"Here, I'll put her on speaker." Matsumoto grumbled in annoyance as she put the phone on speaker and both stayed in their positions in silence as they heard a slight noise and then a 'hello' being spoken into the phone.
"Who is this; sorry I didn't bother to check my caller id." Rukia said sounding a little exhausted because she was in the middle of a meeting for her next victim and Matsumoto smiled.
"Hey Rukia, how are you?!" Matsumoto cheered into the phone and heard Rukia chuckle.
"I'm good…just left his apartment got changed, and now I'm at work." Rukia said with simplicity and Matsumoto saw Hitsugaya shoot a glare at the phone.
"Did you visit Shuuhei at the park?" Matsumoto asked and Rukia arched a brow.
"Yes I did…why?" Rukia asked curiously and Matsumoto sighed.
"Have you read the magazine that just came out an hour ago?" Matsumoto said as she pressed three fingers to her forehead and heard Rukia shuffling around.
"Well, no, you know I don't read those tabloids, seriously." Rukia said as she snorted and Matsumoto sighed.
"Well, boss here is angry at you because apparently with your visit, it was more than a friendly one stated in the magazine." Matsumoto said and heard Rukia groan.
"Oh seriously, well, that's…cute I guess, but it's nothing more than friendly, we always do that, I'll visit him later and patch it up." Rukia said and Matsumoto smiled at Hitsugaya who was scowling even more and Matsumoto rolled her eyes.
"He seems really angry though." Matsumoto pointed out and heard a dry, and crackled voice call out her name.
"Ms. Kuchiki, I swear, if you do not get back into this meeting then I will drag here into the room myself." A loud and old voice boomed and Rukia sighed.
"I'll be right there Mr. Yamamoto Genryuusai, alright Matsumoto, don't worry about it, I'll visit later, I promise, bye." Rukia shut off her phone and Matsumoto shut her phone off and arched a brow at Hitsugaya.
"See I told you she wasn't doing anything." Matsumoto said and Hitsugaya ignored her as she sighed and rolled her eyes.
"You are so stupid...I haven't seen you this jealous since…her, hopefully you are happy." Matsumoto whispered as she stepped out of the office, her heels being placed in soft carpets.
Meanwhile:
"You won't get any assignments any time soon, we need to make sure they aren't aware that everyone related to Aizen and Tousen are being tacked off into being killed." Yamamoto pointed out and Rukia dropped the folder on the table.
"Well then, that's logical at the very least, I need the break anyways." Rukia mumbled and Yamamoto opened one eye.
"Is there something you would like to add Ms. Kuchiki?" Yamamoto asked and Rukia shook her head and then stood up as well as everyone.
"I have to go now, I'll be on break, just call me if you need me." Rukia said as she walked out of the office and walked towards his building. She sighed as she entered in through the revolving glass doors and stopped by the counter to sign in. She saw Hitsugaya had hired a new secretary. She was pretty, long black hair reached to her shoulder blades, mysterious golden brown eyes, and thick red lips, and she was dressed in a extravagant dress, which was cut a little too low. The secretary looked up and blinked at Rukia.
"How can I help you today miss?" The secretary asked and Rukia smiled.
"I'm here to see Mr. Hitsugaya, is he in?" Rukia said, but realized the secretary's voice was…sugary almost. The secretary then leaned forward and locked her fingers together and placed her chin on top of them.
"Do you have an appointment with him?" The secretary asked, long black, and fake, lashes fanned her cheeks as they became half closed and Rukia let her smile fade a little.
"No, but I should be allowed up there." Rukia announced and the secretary smirked a little, this woman thought she was really that special to be allowed up there without an appointment? The secretary retracted back and smirked.
"I'm sorry, but Mr. Hitsugaya only takes visits with appointments scheduled, so you'll have to schedule one, would you like me to schedule one for you?" A malicious tone in the secretary's voice and Rukia rolled her eyes secretly as she took out her phone.
"You want me to make an appointment?" Rukia asked slowly and the secretary nodded as she took out a sticky note, one she was going to throw away later anyways.
"Yes, what time, and what day?" The secretary asked as she glued her eyes to the sticky note, a pen ready and Rukia sighed in annoyance and the secretary looked up.
"Why, can you not schedule an appointment, because if you can't, I'll just assume a time and date?" The secretary said with a smirk and Rukia smiled back.
"That's a complete waste of time, since, I know, as soon as I turn my back, you are going to throw that note away, so let's not waste time and paper, I can go up there, I don't need to schedule to see him." Rukia announced and the secretary's smirk went away.
"Don't be so cocky; don't think I'm going to let you up there." The secretary said as she narrowed her eyes at Rukia and Rukia pulled out her phone and then quickly texted before she pocketed the phone and smiled. The secretary glared at her before the phone rang and the secretary smiled as she saw Hitsugaya was calling the front desk.
"Can I help you Mr. Hitsugaya?" The secretary asked while looking with an evil smirk at Rukia and Rukia kept on smiling.
"Please let her pass, from now on, don't stop her, she has full well access to come see me without an appointment." Hitsugaya replied and the secretary frowned as she saw Rukia smiling and the secretary scowled.
"Is there anything else sir?" The secretary replied and heard Hitsugaya become silent.
"No, that's all, send her up." He punctuated before he slammed down the phone and the secretary shut the phone down and glared venomously at Rukia.
"He says you can go up." The secretary hissed as Rukia smiled with bitterness as she climbed into the elevator and descended up to the first floor.
Ten minutes later:
Rukia knocked on the door and slipped in the room to see Hitsugaya signing papers. He was quiet as she entered, taking in her presence, he remained silent, he was still pissed off, he felt jealousy, but didn't want to show it.
"How are you today?" Hitsugaya asked in a cold tone and Rukia smiled.
"I've been good." Rukia replied as Hitsugaya didn't look up at her and Rukia kept on smiling. "How are you today?" Rukia asked and Hitsugaya snorted.
"Angry." He replied and Rukia locked the door silently and walked towards him.
"And why is that?" Rukia asked as she rounded around the corner and Hitsugaya scowled deeply while signing his papers.
"You should know why." He spat and felt hands raking at his hair softly.
"But I don't so why?" Rukia asked as she stroked his hair slowly and her voice came out low and she heard him keep on scribbling with the pen.
"Don't act so innocent." He hissed back and Rukia positioned herself on the armrest of the chair and tugged at his hair a little bit as she kept on stroking it.
"But I am I don't know why you are so angry." Rukia said as she took off her shoes and curled them in his lap as his hand stopped writing.
"The visit in the park, yeah right, you really don't know about it." He spat as she giggled into his ear.
"Oh come on, were you just jealous that I was visiting a friend?" Rukia said as hot breath tickled his ear and he dropped his pen a little and looked away.
"I do not get jealous." He muttered and Rukia slid into his lap and started tracing the buttons on his shirt.
"Then tell me why you are mad at me." Rukia pouted a little and saw Hitsugaya's eyes flicker elsewhere, away from the pout and her sitting form in his lap, looking innocent and cute.
"I'm mad at you because it didn't look as friendly as it was proposed." He hissed through his teeth and Rukia laughed and he looked at her in shock. "How can you find this funny, this isn't a laughing matter Rukia, you better tell me right now what you were doing with him at the park!" he hissed and Rukia stopped laughing at mid giggle.
"Oh I'm sorry…it's just, we were just visiting each other, he's in love with Senna, not me, we dated in high school and college, and that was it, we just see each other as friend." She started giggling and Hitsugaya glared at her.
"You are still laughing." He pointed out and Rukia smiled at him.
"I think it's cute." She replied and he arched a slim white brow.
"What is cute?" he asked and Rukia leaned up and pressed her soft pink lips against his and looked at him.
"How you get jealous over everything that I do that concerns with a guy, don't worry." She giggled as she leaned against his tall stature and he put his arms around her and put his face in the crook of her neck.
"I hate you, you know that right?" he muttered and Rukia laughed.
"I know."
