Rukia felt a bit warmer inside, at least he wasn't one of those scums that would beg the woman to get rid of it or even deny it.
"Ichigo, do you really want this baby?"
He stayed quiet for a bit, looking away and started walking.
"No."
That hurts. Rukia found herself placing her hand over her heart.
Ichigo looked back, his face changing as he saw her.
It hurts.
Rukia sighed deeply and cupped her flat tummy, was this 'it' really meant to be in this world?
"I'm sorry." He sighed and walked over, sitting next to her. "I didn't mean to say that."
"But you meant it, didn't you."
He sighed and looked away, his hands in his pockets.
He doesn't want it.
She doesn't want it.
So why keep it?
"Sorry, Rukia, but I don't even remember doing it with you."
Was he really that insensitive?
"Whatever," Rukia sigh and got up, Ichigo's eyes glued to her flat belly "See you later."
"Let me walk you home."
"No, I can get home myself." She huffed and began walking, but stopped when her vision became blurry.
"Rukia?" his voice sounded like it was getting closer. Rukia turned around and just saw orange.
What was going on?
"Do you feel alright?" he walked behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Can you stand alone?"
"I feel dizzy."
"Come with me."
-x-
Rukia lay in a hospital bed, a wire stuck in her arm.
She faced the door, seeing the dark figure of Ichigo and another man. They were talking.
Talking about her.
"She wasn't eating." Said the other man, placing a clipboard on something hung on the door. "And with her being pregnant, it took a lot out of her."
Ichigo looked at the other man.
"Is this woman boring your child?"
"No, dad, I'm not stupid, I just found her at the park and she told me she wasn't feeling well."
"Well, that's a relief,"
Rukia shut her eyes tight, cover her mouth with her hand, this man must really not want it.
She opened them when she heard the door open.
Ichigo had just walked in.
"How you feeling." He asked and Rukia didn't answer.
How fake can you get?
"I guess you not answering means you're alright?"
"Leave me alone."
He looked up, "You're better; I can see it in your smile." Rukia's face scowled even deeper. "Why weren't you eating?"
Rukia glared at him before specking "I was on a diet before I knew I was pregnant."
"And you ate how many times a day?"
"Twice, sometimes once."
Ichigo shock his head no "I guess I'll be making sure you eat then."
"Don't; just give me a phone to call someone."
"No."
"Why not, it's not like you care."
"Nope."
"Can you please give me the phone…" she was whimpering now.
She wants to get away from him.
"Since I am the woman you found in the park…" she almost let her tears take over.
Why does she care?
"You heard that?"
"Yes, I did, can you please let me call?"
"I'm sorry; I just didn't want my father to know about this yet."
"Can you please give me a phone?" she started sobbing, she doesn't want him near her.
Or it.
"Sorry, but no."
Rukia swung her legs over the bed, pulling out the needles embedded in her arm.
"Don't do that!" Ichigo yelled, his heavy steps making it over to her and stopping her from getting out of bed.
"Let me go..." she was sobbing louder, her hands holding on to his shirt.
She felt so weak.
Ichigo sighed and dug in his pocket, handing her his cell phone.
"I'll be out there."

"He didn't seem so bad." Momo spoke as she drove out of the parking lot "He even told me he was going to take care of you."
Rukia didn't speck.
"I guess you not answering mean he isn't as good as I think he is?" Momo looked at her from the corner of her eye.
"He doesn't want it."
"The baby?"
"Yea, he doesn't want it, he even deny it to his father."
Momo sighed before stopping at a fast food place. "Please don't think I'm taking his side but think about it, he wasn't expecting to do it with you, he wasn't expecting to get you pregnant, and he barely even knows you."
Rukia frown, she had a point.
She didn't want it either.
"Can I get rid of it, maybe once it's gone…" she stopped talking when she saw her friend nobing her head no.
"Don't,"
"But-"
"No." she got out of the car and walked around. "Come, he told me to make sure you eat."
"I'm not hungry."
"But your baby is."
"Let me remind you once again, Miss Momo," Ichigo drew her attention back. "Rukia has to be very, very careful in the first trimester. Most miscarriages occur during this period and I don't want that to happen. So, you should watch over her even in sleep, Momo." Ichigo cupped one side of his face. "And make sure she drops that stupid diet completely."
Momo rolled her eyes, "I have a better idea, why don't you take her to your house. You are a doctor, you can take much better care of her then I can and it kind of makes more sense."
"I really, really doubt she will want to." Ichigo looked back at the room door she was in.
She was mad at him for what he said.
Why wouldn't she be?
"It's not what she wants for now, it's for what that baby needs to be born healthy." She sighed and took out her phone from her purse "give me your number,"
"Sure?"
"I'll call you ever now and then and tell you how she's doing. But think about, moving her in with you will make it easy for you to know how she and your baby are doing."
She began humming; walking towards the room she was in.
"Does she-"
"She lives alone."
"Can you-"
"I'll text you the address later."
"Thanks?"
"Whatev."
A/N: Don't got much to say.
