Author's Note: Erm…how do I put this? OKAY. BEFORE YOU KILL ME FOR BEING GONE FOR SO RIDICULOUSLY LONG. I have reasons. I'm lazy, and I started school WAY earlier than I thought I was going to. It's already my third week of High School, and they are bombing us with homework like there is no tomorrow. I'm singing like a canary to get out of this shit hole.
So, I thought this plot is taking a little bit too long, for my liking anyways. So I'm going to speed things up in this chapter, so sorry if you wanted extra nice Momo time. It's going to end VERY QUICKLY in this chapter, so sorry.
So give thanks to yourself for getting me to write and Blue Sky who has been spamming up my wall like no tomorrow singing for me to update. She's the nightingale!
Excitement rushed down from his body as they sat down on the couch and Rukia had gotten Momo a cup of tea and they were sitting down talking pleasantly. Hitsugaya had gotten up to go put on a proper shirt, and Rukia crossed her legs as she took a sip of her water.
"I wanted to thank you for letting him see me. It's been a few years." Momo said as she looked at Rukia and Rukia smiled.
"It's no problem; feel free to visit any time." Rukia replied and Momo kneaded her hands together.
"Are you still in that…business?" Momo asked quietly and Rukia put down her cup of water and stared at the couch as she crossed her slim, pale legs together.
"I am, but I can't get out of it, I'm pretty sure you know that by now. Same rules for everybody, even Izuru." Rukia replied and Momo rubbed the cup of tea in her hands.
"I'm so happy you guys are together, I can see the light in his eyes. They shine brightly than ever before, it kind of makes me jealous. I can see he's a whole lot happier with you than he was with me." Momo said with a small smile and a weak laugh and Rukia placed her hand on Momo's thigh.
"I can tell his whole heart has been enlightened since you've came. The smile on his face is so much brighter." Rukia said as Momo placed her hand on top of Rukia's and gave it a squeeze and a bright smile.
Hitsugaya reentered in the room and smiled as Momo and Rukia retracted both of their hands quickly with a smile on their face. He smiled at them and sat down next to Rukia's and quietly intertwined his hand with hers. Momo glanced at her watch and then the happy couple, she had to leave, and she didn't have much time.
"It's been nice talking to you Toshirou, but I really have to leave, it's my job, I'm so sorry." Momo said as she got up, Hitsugaya felt his happy mood press down a little, but he got up and gave Momo a hug.
"It's alright; I understand…just call more and visit by more. I miss you Momo." Hitsugaya said and Momo smiled as she let go. She slipped something into his pocket and patted his shoulder.
"It has my number, and email, so contact me when you can." Momo said and Momo turned to leave but Hitsugaya caught her wrist.
"Wait…um; can you meet me at the park tomorrow? After work, just call me." Hitsugaya said and Momo nodded.
"Sure, I'll meet you there." Momo said as she opened the door, quietly slipped out, and closed the door behind her. Rukia smiled as she went to go up and clean everything up when she felt two arms grab her waist and sling her over someone's shoulder.
"Hey, wait! What are you doing you big idiot?" Rukia yelped as she pounded on Hitsugaya's back and Hitsugaya smirked as he kicked open his bedroom door and threw Rukia on his bed and climbed on top of her.
"Don't think you're not getting a proper thank you for that. I'm so glad you did that…" He was going to continue on, with three words, but he was stopped when Rukia grabbed his neck and slammed him down to kiss him.
Next day:
Rukia woke up and wrote a note quickly as she slipped on a gray cardigan over her strapless purple dress and put on a large belt around her middle.
'Hey there honey. I had to leave for work, call me when you need me. I'll probably be gone all day, if I don't come home for dinner, just go ahead and cook without me. I'll just camp in my own apartment tonight. I hope you're awake soon sleepy head."
She stuck the note on Hitsugaya's forehead before kissing his forehead as well and leaving as she locked the apartment.
Walking off to work, she quickly heard the happy ringtone her phone gave off. She didn't have to look at the screen to know who it was, she flipped open her cell phone and smiled.
"Good to see you're awake sleepy head." Rukia said as she chuckled and heard an annoyed sigh come through the receiver end.
"Guess what lovely surprise I found this morning at my doorstep?" Hitsugaya grumbled and she heard pages being flipped through.
"I don't know, you tell me." Rukia said as she was near a newsstand.
"If you're near a newsstand, pick up JPG magazine and flip through the bachelor's page." Hitsugaya muttered and Rukia plucked a brow up as she lifted up her shoulders to reach a magazine and squeeze her phone between her ear and shoulder. She flipped through until she found the bachelor's page and saw the number one contestant. Her boyfriend, she laughed as she put away the magazine and grabbed her cellular device and laughed.
"I don't see the problem with it, no one knows about us except for a select few." Rukia heard Hitsugaya chucking the magazine somewhere in his apartment and she heard a yawn.
"Meet me for lunch, if you can do that." Hitsugaya said and Rukia smiled sharply.
"Getting Matsumoto to call JPG magazine and get photos of us? Sounds fantastic." Rukia replied and Hitsugaya chuckled.
"This is why I never have to tell you anything." Hitsugaya said and Rukia smiled.
"I know, okay, I've got to go now, I'll see you for lunch." Rukia said as she heard a silent goodbye and Rukia smiled as she clicked her phone shut.
"So, get him into a room and kill him, sounds easy enough, especially for you Rukia." Yamamoto commanded and Rukia nodded as she read through the file. It was an arrancar, Zommari Leroux. She read how much he liked dancing and he would go to a popular dance show every day so he could watch the women perform. She smiled wistfully as Renji walked outside of the room with her and Renji looked over her shoulder.
"Rukia, you've got that happy face on, something tells me you are going to like this mission." Renji said as he handed her a serum and Rukia smirked.
"You know how they offered those belly dance classes at college?" Rukia asked as she went into her office and opened up a small drawer in her desk and her eyes shone at the outfit lying in said drawer.
"Yeah Rukia, I remembered how much you loved it, but you never got to dance it in public." Renji said as he watched his best friend take out a swarthy purple outfit and it glimmered in the bright light.
"I'm so glad I remember on how to belly dance. He likes belly dancers." Rukia clucked her tongue and Renji sighed.
"Come on, let's go, we don't have a lot of time and I'm taking Tatsuki out for lunch, so hurry up." Renji said as she grabbed the outfit, her make up bag and went out the door.
Zommari sat down as a young woman poured him a glass of alcohol, he thanked her politely and swirled the contents around before taking a small sip. Just a little taste, he wanted to enjoy the flavor while watching the women perform his favorite dance. He paid the manager for a separate room, hearing there was a new girl and he wanted to see her talents.
The music started playing and Rukia smirked as she fixed her brunette colored wig and looked at her make up. Keeping the syringe in a strap around her arm safely hidden by the outfit, she smiled as she glided onto the dance area.
She didn't say any words, she danced and swung her hips like coordinated, dancing as what she was taught. She could see Zommari enjoying the dance.
After twenty minutes of dancing, the music stopped and Zommari clapped as he smiled.
"You don't dance like a new dancer. I must say, I'm impressed." Zommari said and Rukia used a slightly deeper voice, making her voice sound sultry and exotic in every way.
"Well thank you, your comments are deeply appreciated, is there anything else you require of me? You have the whole hour to yourself with me." Rukia said and Zommari smiled as he stood up and walked towards Rukia and brushed her cheek with his rough fingers and gave her a smirk.
"I think there's something you can help me with." Zommari said and Rukia smiled as she slipped her hand to the syringe.
Later on:
Rukia was walking to Hitsugaya Corp. cursing on how she almost cut herself because of Zommari's struggle with the syringe; she had to keep him quiet for a long time before the drugs took in effect. She had no idea why they hadn't killed him immediately. She would have to take it up with the lab department.
She found her boyfriend standing outside waiting for her, nonchalantly checking his cell phone and Rukia smiled as she bounded up towards him and prodded him in the stomach. Hitsugaya jumped up and glared at her as he put away his phone.
"Was that necessary?" Hitsugaya grumbled and Rukia leaned up and kissed him.
"It was the only way to get your attention Mister." Rukia said as he kissed her back and called Matsumoto.
"Yeah Matsumoto, call them now." Hitsugaya said and Rukia smiled as he wrapped his arms around Rukia's waist and lifted her up a little and placed a gentle kiss on her lips.
Inside Matsumoto's office:
Matsumoto had just hung up with Hitsugaya and was rapidly dialing JPG magazine. The phone was automatically picked up and Matsumoto smiled.
"Hello, this is JPG magazine, how can we help you today?" A woman answered and Matsumoto smirked.
"Um, yes," she had disguised her voice slightly, "Well, I'm standing outside of Hitsugaya Corporation just walking and I think he's kissing with Rukia Kuchiki, you should go check it out!" Matsumoto said as the woman on the other line didn't say anything, but Matsumoto heard scribbling.
"Thanks doll, thanks for the tip, we'll go check it out." The woman said as she hung up and Matsumoto smiled as she saw Rukia and Hitsugaya in a heated kiss.
Ten minutes later:
Rukia heard the supposed silent shutter clicks and opened her mouth a little while Hitsugaya was kissing her.
"I can hear the cameras, can't you?" Rukia mumbled and Hitsugaya chuckled as he pulled her closer.
"Five more minutes, I promise." Hitsugaya said and Rukia smirked.
"Better keep it, or else I'll have to punish you." Rukia said as her fingers fisted in his hair and he tightened his hold.
"I like the sound of that." He said as he pressed his lips against hers again and they broke apart and looked at each other lovingly and let go as they intertwined hands and entered the office of Hitsugaya Corp together. The shutters of the cameras were gone and the photographer quickly escaped.
Later on that day:
Momo was sitting serenely at the park, watching little kids play with the large fountain built in the middle. She was sitting on a park bench and sighed as she checked her watch, Hitsugaya said he would be there soon, but she didn't see him.
She heard soft panting and saw Hitsugaya standing right in front of her and waving at her.
"Sorry, I had to run a little bit, something at the office. Thanks for being here though." Hitsugaya said and Momo smiled as she patted the spot right next to her.
"No problem, so what did you want to call me here for?" Momo asked and Hitsugaya dug his hand in his pocket and played around with a little box stored in there.
"How do you like Rukia?" Hitsugaya asked as he thickly swallowed and Momo laughed.
"I love her for you. She's perfect, if I was your sister, I would want her to become my sister. She's so nice, caring, funny, and smart. Why do you ask?" Momo said as she looked at Hitsugaya who was sitting with his shoulders hunched over as he looked down on the ground. He looked at there for a couple of seconds, wringing his hands together before he looked at Momo with the deepest eyes she had ever seen on Hitsugaya.
"I want to marry her."
Author's note: HAR HAR, I SAID I WOULD MOVE UP THE PLOT WOULDN'T I? HAHA. But you may hate me for updating so late. Why you may ask? Life got its way. It's like twelve thirty one over here and I'm freaking tired and I need to go to bed. I've got a family reunion tomorrow. So good night, peace and chicken grease, leave me with those lovely reviews.
Love you all.
GIVE THANKS TO BLUE SKY WHILE YOU'RE AT IT.
