Chapter 4
Ichigo awaken thinking everything from last night was dream until father decide to wake him up, as any loving father would however Ichigo's father wasn't any normal dad and decide to wake Ichigo with a kick.
"GOOOOD MORNING ICHIGO!"screamed Ichigo's Father coming closer and closer ready to kick the snot out of Ichigo however Ichigo was ready for the attack
Ichigo grabs his father by his face and holding him down on the floor.
"You've got some nerve! What kind of dad wakes is son up like that1"yelled Ichigo
"You're getting good, looks like there nothing left to teach you my son" said Ichigo's Father ignoring what Ichigo just said
Ichigo just glared at his father until he remember last night and grab his father shirt. He start to question his father about Karin and Yuzu injuries from last night along with Rose.
"Injuries? What're you talking about" asked Ichigo's Father until he realize what Ichigo was talking about and decide to bring him outside along with Yuzu, Karin and Rose who was holding Snow
"It's a miracle" yelled Ichigo's Father as he stand proudly while Ichigo had a scared/disbelief look on his face
"A truck crashes into our house and no one's hurt" continued Ichigo's Father but Karin didn't seem to buy it
"What's more miraculous is that no one woke up not even the cat" said Karin while yuzu continue to think
Rose just stayed quiet not saying a thing however watching what Ichigo's reaction will be. Maybe she should tell him that Rukia erased his family memories and replace them with something else but Rukia told her not to say a thing until school. The other reason why Ichigo's Father stayed out so late was to enroll Rose in Ichigo's high school so she can more accustom to her new surroundings. He even bought her uniform and a bag for her which after he told her she kept apologizing but he said he didn't mind. Before Rukia left Rose ask her to erase everyone mind of yesterday from the high school to help Ichigo out. So today is her first official day of being a high school student.
Ichigo kept thinking of how is family thinks that a truck did this and how their wounds heal so fast, he turned to look at Rose only for her to turn away and walk back inside along with Karin and Yuzu.
"Ichigo you better hurry and eat your breakfast or Rose and you will be late" said Yuzu who went back inside
"Yeah" said Ichigo still thinking until he remember what his sister said
"Wait…why would you say Rose name too" ask Ichigo sudden afraid
"Oh I forgot to tell you Rose will be joining you at school from now on, isn't that great" said Ichigo's Father
"But she doesn't have a uniform" said Ichigo trying to make up excuse so Rose couldn't go today
"Yes she does I bought her uniform yesterday along with a super cute bag for her" said Ichigo's Father
"But how did you get her measurements" asked Ichigo
"I was going to measure her but Rose gave me her measurements on paper" said Ichigo's father sulking
'Now my life is history' thought Ichigo as he followed his family back inside sulking
6 minutes later
Both Rose and Ichigo were in their uniform ready to go. Rose was wearing a gray jacket with a collared white shirt and a red bow along with a short gray skirt. Rose decide to curl her hair and put a red and white polka dot bow headband. She also put on stripe thigh high sock which were white/ blue / red.
Ichigo and Rose walk towards the school. As they arrived Ichigo decided to help Rose get settle in and was surprised to see she had the same classes as him. But all the while Ichigo was wondering why none of the boys were chasing them. As walking through the hall, Ichigo wasn't watching where he was going and bump into a girl with brown eyes and back length burnt orange hair she also had two blue clip barrettes in the sides of her hair.
"Oh it's you, hey Orihime" said Ichigo
"Oh no Ichigo I'm sorry" said Orihime until a girl with short black spiky hair and blue eyes step in
"Ichigo you bump into her and that all you can say" ask more like yelled by the girl
"Oh Sorry. You okay" ask Ichigo who was going to help Orihime until she jumps up waving her hands in front of her saying she had volleyball and running in the opposite direction
Ichigo start the question the girl about what going with Orihime which got him a funny response until the girl turn to Rose.
"Hey Ichigo who is she" ask the girl
"That Rose she new "said Ichigo
"Really we got another student" said the girl
"Wait what you mean another" ask Ichigo who was ignore as the girl put her hand towards Rose
"Hi my name Tatsuki if you need any help with this guy I've got your back" said Tatsuki
"Hey what that supposed to mean" ask Ichigo with an upset look on his face which cause Rose to laugh
"See she get my joke, lighten up" said Tatsuki
Ichigo walks away as Rose follows but not before waving at Tatsuki. Ichigo arrived to class 1-3 and entering as Rose follows. However he goes sitting in his seat forgetting to help Rose. Rose just stands there looking around the room, not knowing what to do.
Ichigo was talking to his friends and rather not bother him, remembering what he said so she decided to help herself. That until someone tap her shoulder which she turn to see Rukia.
"Princess" said Rukia
"Rukia please it Rose here" said Rose not liking her title or being address as it
"Sorry anyway where is Ichigo" ask Rukia which rose point towards Ichigo
Rukia decide to drag Rose towards Ichigo's desk as she tap his shoulder. He turned and jump out of seat after seeing Rukia who looked innocent but he didn't buy it all.
"Hello are you Ichigo, I'll be sitting next to you from today. My name is Rukia" said Rukia
"It's…you" said Ichigo startled which made his friends look at him while Rose knew he was in trouble
"You know her Ichigo" asked Ichigo
Rose decide to save his skin before Rukia gave him a very scary message
"No he doesn't, oh where are my manners my name Rose" said Rose as she smiled as her breast jiggled a little which cause Keigo and Mizuiro blush a little bit with some blood coming out of their nose
"Rukia the brand the new transfer student also along with you, Rose" said Mizuiro
"Nice to meet you two" said Keigo flirtingly
Chad just watch them not say a thing while Ichigo had a disbelief look on his face
"Pleasure" said Rukia as she stretch her hand out to shake only to turn it over with the message which said make a fuss and you're dead
This cause Ichigo to go pale while making Rukia smirk and Rose smile but in her head just thinking Ichigo shouldn't have made a scene
Ichigo drags Rukia outside while Rose stayed and thinking what to do until Keigo decide to help her
"Do you need help" ask Keigo praying she said yes
"Is there a place I can sit" asked Rose looking around the room
Rose knows Ichigo life is now going to be harder and knowing Rukia, she would make Ichigo agree whether he want to or not however Ichigo will decide his own fate.
The Next Day
Rose was playing with Snow as Ichigo was out with Rukia. Rose had a good day yesterday after making new friends with Tatsuki and Orihime. Orihime even invite her for dinner along with Tatsuki which Tatsuki suggest she bring something as Orihime not the best cook which rose agreed after seeing Orihime's lunch. She decided to make strawberry cupcakes with a chocolate drizzle on top of the vanilla icing. Rose leave some for Ichigo and his family then putting the rest in a container to carry.
Rose used the map that Orihime had drawn and with the help of some kind people, Rose arrived before nightfall. She rush up towards Orihime's apartment only to see Tatsuki outside with a container of food in her hands, ready to knock on the door until she see Rose.
"Oh hey Rose, Orihime invited you too huh" ask Tatsuki which She nod
Tatsuki knocks on Orihime's door with Rose next to her waiting for the door to open. They both heard a voice yelled 'coming' along with footsteps as the door open with Orihime standing there.
"Oh hi Tatsuki and Rose" said Orihime
"Hey Orihime my mom thought I should bring this for you" said Tatsuki
"And since you invited me I couldn't come empty handed so I back some cupcakes" said Rose as she showed Orihime the cupcakes
"Wow Rose I didn't know you can cook" said Orihime
"My grandmother taught me when I was younger ad then as I got older I starting reading more recipe books" said Rose lying easily
The other reason why she knew how to cook was because one of her cooks thought it was a good idea so she could please her husband. Maria the head cook was the one who allow Rose to cook in the kitchen in secret so her father wouldn't find out and taught her everything she knows even giving Rose family recipes to read so her cooking can become better. Orihime invited them in not knowing of the danger that will happen tonight.
PART 2
After eating the stewed beef and potatoes they decide to talk a little before eating dessert. The girls were having a good time as Orihime and Tatsuki got know more about Rose. Until they all heard a noise which stop the conversation as the look around to find the source of the noise. While outside the hollow that attack Ichigo roared as it head to it next target, Orihime it beloved sister.
The girls decide that the noise was nothing so they decide to eat dessert and continue the conversation. Until Orihime's bear fell down from the cabinet with a rip in in head which all the girls notice it. Orihime walks over to it and picks it up with Rose and Tatsuki following. Rose had a bad feeling the more she got closer to Orihime and her bear, almost like a bad omen as she look at the bear head with the rip in it.
"Oh poor Enraku fell down and how did you get this big rip in your head" ask Orihime towards the bear
They all heard the noise again except this time it was louder which Rose bad feeling start to get worst. Orihime lowered her bear and wondering where the noise is coming from while Tatsuki kept looking around and Rose came next Orihime afraid that her new friends along with her are in trouble until the noise start to get louder and louder. Then there was a drop on the floor, Rose and Orihime look down to see a drop of something red on the floor. Rose touch it and felt it texture until her eyes widened as she look at Orihime's hands with the bear in it only to see more of the red stuff on her hands. Orihime look at her hands too after moving one of her hands away from the bear only to see more of the red stuff on her hand as her eyes widened.
"What…is…this…blood" stuttered Orihime as Rose bad feeling started to go haywire and in her mind was yelling 'danger'
Rose knew something was wrong after the noise stop which made Rose push Orihime to get her away from the danger.
"ORIHIME LOOK OUT" yelled Rose as she push Orihime to try and get her to safety only for it to not work as a hand came from out the bear and pierced both Rose and Orihime through the chest
Their bodies fell to the ground lifeless which Tatsuki noticed.
"Orihime…Rose" ask Tatsuki only for her to get knock to the side with a cut on her shoulder
"What happen and why is my shoulder bleeding" ask Tatsuki towards herself but only for the invisible force to drag her along the wall and throw her away
Tatsuki couldn't see it but she knew something was with them. The hollow kept attack her as it hold her down so she couldn't fight or run which she start to panic.
"What happening… who there" ask Tatsuki while holding the invisible force as it watch her waiting for the right moment to kill her
While all this is happening both Orihime and Rose watch as the thing attack their friend to afraid to understand what happening. Rose knew it was hollow but she didn't understand why it was here. Until the hollow lifted its tail which both Orihime and Rose saw their bodies. Orihime didn't know what to believe only to see that her and Rose bodies as she looks down to see a chain on her chest. She tries to break only for Rose to stop her.
"Stop don't pull on that you're going to hurt yourself if you keep doing that" said Rose as she takes Orihime hand in hers, trying to get her to calm down
"But what is this and how do you know this will hurt me" ask Orihime look at Rose who looks down at her hands
"I…can't tell you" said Rose which cause Orihime to pull her hands away from Rose
"Why can't you tell me, did you cause this" ask Orihime again but this more stern
"I … just can't Orihime" said Rose as she continue to look at her hands
"I thought we were friends but why can't you tell me" said Orihime getting more anger at Rose thinking maybe it her fault
"We are friends but I just can't tell you, you wouldn't understand" said Rose as she grabs Orihime's shoulder "Just trust me it better not knowing" continued Rose but Orihime push her hands off her
"How can I trust you if you won't tell me what's going, maybe this really is your fault" said Orihime pointing at Rose
"No it no…" but was cut off by a smack from Orihime who has tears in her eyes as Rose hold her cheek with the mark on it
"Don't you dare tried to say it not because none of this would have happen if you were here, I can't believe Tatsuki and I befriend you and now this happen, YOUR NOTHING BUT TROUBLE I HATE YOU AND I WISH WE NEVERED MET YOU" yelled Orihime as she got up and ran towards the hollow and Tatsuki while Rose lowers her head but you could tell she was crying as water drop down from her face
Orihime knocks herself into the hollow arm which causes it to let go of Tatsuki. She grabs Tatsuki asking if she was okay but only for her to be push away by the girl she saved.
"GET BACK! STAY AWAY!" yelled Tatsuki as she waves her arm around trying to get the invisible thing away from her
"Tatsuki what wrong, what are you screaming about it just me" ask Orihime
"It useless talking to her now Orihime, she can't hear us, she can't even see us" said the hollow which Tatsuki pass out as Rose run over towards Tatsuki trying to help her wake up while Orihime question the hollow
"Why not and how do you know my name" ask Orihime as the hollow watch her with 'sad' eyes
"That sad Orihime, have you forgot my voice" ask the hollow coming closer towards them" it's me can't you tell" continued the hollow
"What are you talking about" ask Orihime which causes the hollow ready to attack
"It makes me sad Orihime, very, very sad" said the hollow about to attack which cause Rose to jump in front of Orihime to protect even after saying all those terrible thing Rose would protect her friends no matter what
As Rose waited to feel pain only to clang sound like a sword which caused her to see a black and white robe, a long sword and the obvious of all the orange hair which could only be one person.
"Ichigo" said Rose
"I'M THE ONE YOU'RE REALLY AFTER, SO LEAVE THEM ALONE AND FACE ME" yelled Ichigo as he pushed the hollow back
The hollow roars at him as he charge towards it ready to fight but it backs away into a black hole until it disappeared. Ichigo notice Tatsuki and start to curse in his mind about Tatsuki getting caught in all of this.
"Ichigo thank you for rescuing us" said Orihime which cause Ichigo to turn to Rose and Orihime "but where did you come from "continued Orihime which causes him to become confused
"Wait Orihime how in the hell can you see me" ask Ichigo
He knew Rose could see him but Orihime shouldn't be able to.
"Why shouldn't I" ask Orihime until he notice chains on both Orihime and Rose chest while following the chain to see their bodies and remembering what Rukia told him
This caused his eye to widen as he piece it together.
"So that means…" ask Ichigo but unable to finish only as the hollow return finishing Ichigo's sentence
"That's right. Their spirit beings in other words Orihime and her friend are dead" said the hollow
Ichigo roars and charge at the hollow and was close to slicing at it but the hollow dodge and grab onto Orihime's chain. Rose seeing this grabs Orihime and gets pulled along as Ichigo is throw outside putting a hole in the apartment. The hollow seeing Rose hold Orihime and decide to throw her away from them as he full grabs Orihime's soul into his hand. Rose watch as her friend was used a leverage in order to stop Ichigo from attacking the hollow as Ichigo get hit with the hollow's tail, falling towards the grounds where Rukia was standing.
"Ichigo" yell Rukia as she run towards him trying to wake him up
Rose watch the hollow as it holds Orihime. After seeing Ichigo get hurt both Rose and Orihime wanted to go help him however Orihime was in the hands of the hollow as she struggled.
"Let me go! Let me go! LET… ME… GO" yelled Orihime at the hollow as it watch her
"Orihime, have you forgotten me" ask the hollow as Orihime stop her struggles to look at the hollow
Rose gets up from her position watching the interaction between Orihime and the hollow as it seem to know Orihime before becoming a hollow. Until Orihime seem to recognize the hollow.
"Sora, is that you" said Orihime unsure if this was really her brother or not
"Sora" ask Rose
While Rukia finally got Ichigo up. Rose sighed happy, knowing that Ichigo was okay. As she talk to him about Sora not being a spirit anymore and having no heart. Which Rose didn't believe but knew she was right however Rose knew there must be a way to get Sora out the control of the hollow controlling him. Rose doesn't believe that everyone didn't have no good inside them as she see good in all no matter the circumstances. The hollow puts down Orihime while she question it asking if it really her brother.
"Yes Orihime" said the hollow as Orihime puts her hands towards he face looking
"You're lying. My brother would never do what you're doing" said Orihime but was stop by Sora
"I was so lonely" said the hollow Sora "you were starting to forget about me each day…little by little" continued Sora
He start to tell her what happened after he died about how she used to pray for him every day as he watch her. That it was her prays that gave him peace but after year she stop praying after she became friends with Tatsuki. Which caused her to pray less and less each day and then when she joined high school she stop altogether. That caused him to become so lonely as he didn't have her prayers to help him stay at peace. Rose felt for him however she knew none of this was right, she understands that Orihime might have forgotten to pray for him which made him feel lonely but attack the people you once called family and their friends is not justified. Until Rose notice the hair clips on Orihime, knowing Orihime never took them off as she guess that they were from her brother to remember him. Orihime never forgot about him because she always had him with her while she wore the hair clips.
"Sora you don't unders…" but was cutoff but Sora who grab her again
"Listen, Orihime! If you even have a shred of love for me, you will not betray me again and do what I say as I take care of this pest and believe it won't take long" said Sora " I'll devour his soul to end this quickly" continued Sora about to go and kill Ichigo however Orihime stopped him
"No don't. Ichigo has nothing to do with this" yelled Orihime "Please leave him, it's not righ…" but was cutoff again by Sora who told her to be quiet and blaming her how this is all her fault
He grabs her and starts to squeeze her as Rose see that she having trouble breathing. She needed to stop before he killed Orihime, her friend, no her best friend.
"HEY" yelled Rose as she run over towards Sora as she start to hit him with her fist which did no damage "It's not her fault that she forgot pray for you as you probably don't realize you're not the only one who felt lonely think about Orihime and how she felt without her big brother around, someone decide to help her out and make her forget about loneliness. I thought big brothers are supposed to watch out for their younger siblings even after their gone but here you are hurting the only relative you have just because she stop feeling sad" she continued as she throw back into the wall
"SHUT UP, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND AND YOU DON'T KNOW ORIHIME" yelled Sora but Rose get up forgetting her injuries and only worrying about Orihime
"Yeah I might not know everything about Orihime but I could tell the way she is with people through her actions and how she treats her friends is that she loves them not matter what and would do everything in her power to protect them from harm. Orihime just that person who would always stand by someone side no matter the outcome of a situation, if she involve or not, she takes care of people and I could tell that she has a big heart" said Rose trying to hold herself up
"WHAT ABOUT WHEN SHE BLAMED YOU HOW THIS IS ALL YOU'RE FAULT AND SMACK YOU" yelled Sora as Orihime looks down feeling bad about blaming Rose for this when it wasn't her fault but her own and smacking Rose
Rose looks at Orihime but smiles brightly.
"She didn't know what was happening and she couldn't understand what was going on along with seeing you hurt Tatsuki she couldn't handle the pressure so she tried to take out her pressure by blaming me however I don't blame her for what she did, I could never blame her for that as Orihime has the biggest heart and would protect her friends. I'm glad I met her and Tatsuki, I wouldn't have it any other way because SHE THE BESTEST FRIEND YOU COULD EVER HAVE TO SIDE BY YOUR SIDE AND I WOULD DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT HER FROM YOU. YOU HEAR THAT ORIHIME I DON'T BLAME YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID, YOU ONLY WANTED TO PROTECT TATSUKI SO DON'T FEEL BAD" yelled Rose as Orihime began to cry" SHE BRIGHTEN EVERYONE WHO COMES INTO CONTACT WITH HER AND THEY NEVER WANT TO LEAVE HER SIDE BECAUSE SHE THE MOST AMAZING PERSO ANYONE COULD EVER KNOW. SO PLEASE TELL ME AGAIN HOW I DON'T KNOW ORIHIME BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO ME SHE NEVER FORGOT ABOUT YOU SORA AS YOU THOUGHT SHE DID" continued Rose
"R…ose" said Orihime softly thinking the same thing about Rose after her speech and even know she told her don't feel bad about what she did earlier
Sora hit Rose with his tail and continue to squeeze the life out Orihime only for Ichigo to stab him in the tail repeatedly as he let go of Orihime who rolls towards Rose who crawls towards Orihime before passing out. Sora threw Ichigo off him and was about to grab Orihime but Ichigo slices his hand clean off. As Orihime cough to regain air as she hugs Rose close to her and Ichigo watches them. Orihime continue to cry while holding Rose and saying sorry over and over.
"Let me ask you something captain over bite. Do you know why big brothers are born first? There a reason" asked Ichigo who begin to stand "Their born first so they can look after their little brothers and sisters and protect them" continued Ichigo
"Ichigo" yelled Rukia but stops
"But as Rose stated before, here you are threating to kill your own sister. Even a dead man, doesn't say that" yelled Ichigo
"SHUT UP! YOU AND THAT GIRL DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT, ORIHIME IS MINE" yelled Sora "I raised her when our parents abandoned us, to me she more of a daughter than a sister" continued Sora
"But that doesn't give you any right to do this" said Rose as everyone turn to her as she struggled to get up
"Rose no" said Orihime trying to stop Rose
"I'm fine Orihime however nobody own anybody in this world and Orihime is her own person, she belongs to herself, she nobody property. Just because you took care of her doesn't give you the right to harm her or anybody she cares about even if you're her brother, you're not acting like it. Big brother care for their younger sibling protecting them from everything that can harm them but you, you're not doing that and doing the exact opposite of protecting your harming you little sister" said Rose as Orihime holds her up
"Rose" said Ichigo as he amazed at the person who hurt but continue to speak their mind
"SHUT UP GIRL YOU DON'T…"Sora was about to say but was cut off by Rose
"NO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND I MAY NOT HAVE SIBLINGS BUT I WOULD GIVE EVERYTHING JUST TO HAVE A SISTER LIKE ORIHIME, SHE THE BEST PERSON EVER AND NOBODY WOULD RUIN THAT" yelled Rose
"Orihime, come with me, just with you and me happy together" said Sora holding out his one hand "and if you come I promise to spare the others" continue Sora which Orihime was going to go until Rose stop her along with Rukia telling her that it was a trap and he brother didn't have the feelings of a brother anymore
Until Sora recognize the hairpins on Orihime remembering Orihime growing up. Rose saw that the control of the hollow was starting to wear off as Sora begin to fight against it.
"That it Sora, fight the control don't let it control you. I know deep down that the real you is there, so fight back" said Rose watching Sora but was disappointed to see it failed
"Orihime is…mine" said Sora as he attack using his mouth which Ichigo stops him with his sword
"Orihime doesn't belong to anyone and least of all to you" said Ichigo pushing him back which caused a another hole
Sora prepare another attack which cause Ichigo to roar and follow him out, charging him to attack however he took too long as Sora sprayed something on his on his hands as the girls watch in horror as Ichigo drops his sword and towards the ground. Sora charged towards Ichigo ready to devour him whole, Rose knew it was a spilt second decision but decide to jump in front of Ichigo and getting hit instead which makes Sora stop.
"Rose" said Ichigo as she drops to her knees holding Sora
"ROSE" yelled Orihime as she drop down and ran towards Sora and Rose
"Why would you do that, you do realize I could kill you but you stay, why" ask Sora
"I know you could never hurt someone close to Orihime because you're not that kind of person. I could tell you took great care of Orihime as any big brother would but you were to her, you were like her father so killing one of her friends would upset her and you didn't want to do that as you only wanted what best for her in order to make her happy" said Rose "Orihime felt that you couldn't rest in peace because of her as she felt it her fault that you became this way. Yesterday Orihime was almost hit by a car and you pulled her to safety, you protected her, I could tell just from that mark on her leg like any big brother would. Orihime never forgot about you as she always knew you were right by her side protecting her when she needed it" continue Rose
"Rose's right Sora I believed if I kept depending on you that you'll never be able to rest in peace but if I showed you I can be happy you wouldn't have to worry about me" said Orihime "but I would never dream it would make you sad and lonely" continued Orihime as Rose fell to the ground
"Rose are you okay" asked Orihime holding Rose up
"Yes" said Rose
Sora began to fight against the hollow inside him as Rukia explained to Ichigo about what happening. They all watch as Sora fight for his sister sake. Finally the mask breaks as Sora face appears which is a happy sight is for Orihime.
Rose fall towards the floor, passing out from the pain.
"Oh no Rose" yelled Orihime
"Rose" yelled Ichigo
Rukia run over towards them and check Rose over.
"She fine, long as the chain is connected she won't die, now stand back and need to treat her" said Rukia as she begin to heal Rose
The hair pins flashed again which caused Sora eyes to widened as Ichigo looks at Orihime's hair pins
"You gave that to her as a present, didn't you, she told me that and that why she wears it every single day" ask Ichigo which caused Orihime to look at him
"Big brother" yells Orihime as she hugs Sora but he goes a grab Ichigo's sword ready to end it
"No brother" yelled Orihime
"Orihime it's the only way otherwise he would be back under the control of the hollow" said Rukia
Orihime decide to remind Sora about the hairpins and tells him have a good day. With that Sora ends his suffering but not without thanking Rose and ask her to watch out for Orihime.
THE NEXT DAY
Rose, Orihime and the rest of the girls were eating lunch while Orihime told what happen to Orihime's apartment. While Ichigo and Rukia watch to see what she would say.
"A sumo champion really came to my room and blasted a hole through the wall last night" said Orihime while the girls didn't believe her
"Hey it really did happen" said Rose as Orihime hug her
"See Rose believe me and she was there" said Orihime
Rose looks over towards Ichigo and Rukia smiling as she went back to eat.
"So that what you did yesterday" said Ichigo which Rukia nod
FLASHBACK
"Ichigo what with these monsters and that big sword "asked but was knock out by Rukia
"Orihime what you do to her" ask Ichigo
"Memory replacement" said Rose
"I wipe out her memory and replace it with a new one" said Rukia as she drag Tatsuki
"However we don't know what memory it replaced hers with so we'll see tomorrow" said Rose as she walks towards her body
"Hey Rose, wait" said Ichigo
"Yes Ichigo" ask Rose
"I think it was really cool about what you said to Orihime and how you stood up for her" said Ichigo blushing which caused Rose to blush
"It was nothing I meant what I said but she won't remember it" said Rose
"I think she should be glad to have a friend like you" said Ichigo
"Really" ask Rose
"Yeah now hurry up" said Ichigo walking away but stopped and turn to Rose "Hey you want to hang out next Saturday but not as a date, I mean you don't know your way around yet so I thought maybe I could show you around if you want I could invite everyone so it won't be awkward" continue Ichigo as he blushed madly
"I would love to" Said Rose
"Great" said Ichigo
FLASHBACK OVER
Rose knew she was starting to have feeling for Ichigo but she didn't know if he like her too. All she knew that maybe she finally found someone she can love or was it just a small time crush but neither Ichigo nor Rose felt that it was a small time crush.
