So I decided that I am going to continue this story with several more chapters, each of which will consist of one person finding out about the HitsuxKarin relationship. I hope you do enjoy this~~

P.S. I do not own Bleach nor any of its characters. All credits are due to the mangaka.

"Karin-chan," Yuzu came up to Karin in a morning just like any other mornings. It was a Saturday in winter; everything was covered in white snow.

"Yeah?" Karin replied with food in her mouth.

"I see you've been spending a lot of time with Hitsugaya-kun," Yuzu said, leaning towards her sister.

"Oh.. Re-really?" Karin said. "I didn't notice..."

"You didn't notice?" Yuzu asked suspiciously. "He's been here for four months already, and you guys go out to 'play soccer' almost every day!"

"Well yeah..." Karin replied. "I play soccer almost every day, and he decided to join our team."

"But he used to hate playing soccer! I mean..." Yuzu said, remembering past times, "you practically had to beg him for just one game!"

"Maybe he just changed his mind..." Karin said, trying to let this matter drop.

"Well..." Yuzu was interrupted.

"Good morning, guys," Ichigo said as he came in to the dining room.

"Good morning, Ichi-nii," both girls replied. They eyed their brother and realized he was dressed up pretty nicely. That was extremely unusual of Ichigo on a Saturday morning.

"Are you going somewhere?" Yuzu asked.

"Ye-yeah," Ichigo replied blushing.

"Huh..." Karin got closer to him. "Are you perhaps going on a... date?"

"Sh-shut up!" Ichigo said as he left. "I'll be late, so have dinner without me." He ran and shut the door with a loud bang.

"He's definitely going on a date..." Yuzu said, more to herself than to her sister.

"By the way, Yuzu..." Karin said. "I'm also going to be late today... so I guess dinner will be just you and Dad."

"Huh?" Yuzu was confused. "What about Hitsugaya-kun? Did he go back to Soul Society?"

"Ehh!?" Karin exclaimed. "Oh! No... I mean... uh..."

"Karin-chan..." Yuzu was now almost certain. "Are you two..."

"Morning," Hitsugaya came in suddenly.

"Go-good morning," Karin replied wide-eyed.

"Good morning, Hitsugaya-kun," Yuzu said, her voice full of determination. "Hey, Hitgusaya-kun, I have something to ask you."

"Yeah?" Hitsugaya replied.

"Are you..." Yuzu seemed to hesitate a little bit but wet straight to the point. "Are you and Karin-chan dating?"

His turquoise eyes widened as he stared at the two sisters in surprise. "How did she know?" he asked Karin.

"WHAT?!" Yuzu exclaimed. "So you two ARE DATING?!"

"Yuzu!" Karin tried to calm her sister down. "Please! Don't be so loud!"

Meanwhile, Hitsugaya was still too dumbfounded to do anything.

"No wonder you've been spending so much time together!" Yuzu said after she calmed down.

"I-I guess..." Karin said. Her face was as red as a tomato.

"Does anyone else know?" Yuzu asked.

"No," he replied. "At least not to my knowledge."

"Yeah..." Karin said.

"But why hide it?" Yuzu asked. "It's not like dating is a bad thing."

"Well," Karin looked at Hitsugaya. "It's a little bit complicated..."

"Why?" Yuzu was confused and curious.

"Because," Hitsugaya said, "I'm a Shinigami, and she's a human."

"So...?" Yuzu was still confused and curious. "What's the problem?"

"We are completely different beings you know..." Karin said.

"I'm not supposed to have such intimate relations with a human," Hitsugaya said.

"Oh..." Yuzu finally seemed to understand.

"So," Karin held Yuzu's hands, "can you PLEAASE keep it a secret? At least for now..."

"Mmmm..." Yuzu thought for a little bit before replying "Yes" cheerfully.

"Thanks," Hitsugaya said.

"So..." Yuzu seemed to still have something to ask.

"Hm?" Karin said looking at her sister. "What is it?"

"Have you two kissed?" she asked cheerfully.

"What?" they both exclaimed. Their faces became bright red, and they couldn't even look at each other in the eyes.

"You have?" Yuzu kept asking.

"Uhh..." Karin only stumbled with her words, and Hitsugaya kept avoiding Yuzu's curious eyes.

Suddenly, Hitsugaya's phone (or whatever it is that Shinigamis have... you know, the one that lets you know when a Hollow appears...) rang.

"I have to go," he said as he stood up and immediately left the house.

"I have to go, too," Karin said as she stood up.

"Where are you going?" Yuzu asked. "Are you two going on a date?"

"N-no!" Karin said. "I'm just going out for a walk!"

"Right..." Yuzu said. "A 'walk,'" and she winked.

Karin just sighed, and as she was leaving, Yuzu shouted, "But have you two kissed?"

I hope you enjoyed :) Let me know your opinions on the story~
