Disc.: Bleach sadly still does not belong to me. If it did trust me we would have been out of Hueco Mundo AGES ago. P

Drabble # 12 – School Daze /// all one way sympathies

Ichigo had been tapping his foot against the desk leg for the past half hour and bit by bit sketches and doodles had eclipsed the formulas on Orhime's notepad. The monotony was so profound that even Ishida was fidgeting at this point.

Rukia heaved a sigh and continued to gaze out the window.

Even with her previous minimal classroom instruction, she had all of these scientific equations down to a pat.

A minute beeping interrupted the classroom's sync. Ichigo's tapping abruptly stopped and she could feel the weight of his anxious stare. Rukia turned away from the window and met his gaze, fishing the phone out of her pocket. She could see the question in his eyes."Hollow?"

Covertly Rukia brought out the phone and glanced at the screen.

"1 New Message"

Ichigo nudged her with his foot.

"It's okay," she whispered. "It's not a hollow." He raised an eyebrow, she shrugged. Warily, Ichigo turned back to the board. Her attention, on the other hand, shifted back to the phone.

One new message… She flipped open the phone.

"What's up?"

Rukia was nonplussed. Hesitantly, she hit reply. "Who is this?" Then, she quickly put the phone on vibrate, before slipping it back into her pocket.

Just seconds later she could feel the phone moving. She stiffened causing Ichigo to look over at her again. She cracked a smile, giving the "It's Fine" attitude, and opened the phone again.

"Kuchiki-san r u telling me that other lovely bachelors such as myself might have ur phone #?"

Rukia stifled another sigh.

"What do you want, Urahara?" She replied.

Again the response was quick. "Now, let's not b short."

She rolled her eyes and replied. "Can we stop with the 'subtle' height references."

"Heh, heh. U invited it P Bsides it's not lik ur not bored out of ur mind."

Rukia realized that she might as well just keep the phone on her lap.

"Whatever."

"U know it'd b easier if u'd just u abbreviations."

"W/e"

"Good girl ."

Rukia glared at the phone.

"Honestly, Kisuke, I'm busy. No time for games."

"Oh plz. It's not like I didn't already go over physics w/ u ages ago."

Was it a crime to pay attention to class? So what if she had a scientific genius for a friend?

"Still." Really, it already looked pretty sad that she was failing all of her classes except for Japanese.

A minute passed. No vibes. Maybe he was actually taking her seriously.

Then, "That's INSULTING, Kuchiki-san! Was Newton not under my division?"

Dramatic antics, unfortunately backed with truth. "Stop bragging."

This time two minutes passed. "I taught u equations that not even these humans would know! I even taught u their paltry rocket science. If u really had a problem w/ this u could just ignore me. Just admit my genius as a teacher and the fact that U R BORED."

If cellular phones could randomly combust into flames, Rukia's would have at that moment. It was so like him to bother her during class. So maybe she was bored. That doesn't mean she'd actually admit that she needed him to cure the boredom. Seretei already knows that he was flouncing around pretending to be Soul Society's greatest gift to science. She most definitely didn't need him flouncing around pretending to be Soul Society's greatest gift to her. Quickly, she glanced up at the instructor who was still up at the board and resumed texting.

Half-way through a long angry monologue Rukia received another message.

"Quit bitching, Kuchiki-san."

Again, she glared the phone.

"… w/e."

AN:

Not much but I figured it might be nice to post something every once in a while (.;;;;) I myself don't really text but I figured Kisuke would probably either already know everything about most human technology or be very quick on the uptake. So then I thought who would Kisuke text? Probably bother Papa Ishida a work… Spam Ishin in some weird lame conversation. … Bother Rukia XD so yeah… THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO Ana Baka-sama, SoraXNamine, Melodramatic Writer, Sweet Sacrifice, intercostal space, and deirdre's dreams for reviewing. I 3 you guys, and for you I wrote this update. Hope it's enough to tide you over till I feel like writing a real totally angst totally emotional chapter again… Acting like Kubo much? XD
