I'm updating now! Yippee! Anyways, I'm sorry I'm not updating sooner, the reason why was because I was so caught up in one of my books I completely forgot about fanfic. Anyhow, everyone, let's thank KaRiSa, MimoriFanForever and Nalakaori-chan for the review of last chapter! So enough talk, to the chapter!

Chapter 3 – Birthday Surprise!

The sun shone brightly in the window of the tenth division office. Hitsugaya was up and early doing paperwork again. 'Today's Hinamori's birthday, I hope she likes my present…I was up all night making it, I think I had only a few hours of sleep.' He thought to himself. And for the kicks, he even made a cute red bow to it; who would've thought that the tenth division office would have all this material. The old tenth division taichou must've loved arts and crafts or something because he left a lot of it inside the office.

Still having about one quarter left of paperwork, he got up and took his wrapped present inside a little red box with a white ribbon which held a golden sheet of paper shaped as a card which had beautiful hand writing in it.

'To Bed-wetter Momo,

Happy Birthday,

From Hitsugaya TAICHOU.' Was writing inside it. Hitsugaya had started walking to the fifth division with his eyes closed and concentrating hard on what to say to Hinamori when he suddenly bumped into…guess who?

Hinamori had waken up early because of her birthday and made her hair a little more special. Instead of the usually bun she had, she tied her hair into a ponytail with a peach coloured ribbon for the special occasion and clipped the sides of her hair with clips that had little peaches on it.

She was humming to herself quietly, when she bumped into someone unexpectedly. "Ah," Hinamori breathed as she fell on to the ground. Looking up, she saw Hitsugaya was the one who bumped her, holding a box in his right hand. "Ohayo Shiro-chan!" Hinamori said. Hitsugaya looked down at Hinamori; he didn't even realize he bumped into her. "It's Hitsugaya taichou to you!" He mumbled. "Oh gomen (sorry) Shiro, I mean Hitsugaya taichou." Hinamori giggled back. Hitsugaya smiled inside; at least Hinamori was happy today.

There was a bit of silence before Hinamori got up, then she remembered the box that Hitsugaya had in his hand, secretly hoping it was her present. "Hey Shiro-chan, I mean Hitsugaya taichou, what's the box for?" She asked, hoping not sounding too excited. Hitsugaya looked at her then to the box, praying that he didn't sound nervous; he answered. "This box is none of your business." And he walked away. 'That's what Hitsugaya said to me last year when he gave me this ribbon as my birthday present!' Hinamori thought happily.

Hitsugaya sighed when he was far enough from Hinamori, 'That nosy girl.' He thought to himself as he reached the fifth division office. He entered inside the room, it was empty. He walked over to where Hinamori always sat down and worked and left the box on the desk; he was grateful that Aizen wasn't here.

When he was walking back to the tenth division he saw Kira picking out some flowers near the area of the fifth division. He couldn't see Kira that well because of the distant of where he was, but he could see that he was holding something. Thinking of it as nothing, he continued walking back.

"So do you have everything?" Matsumoto asked as Kira came back. "Yeah, flowers and the peaches." Kira replied. In one hand there were bunches of red roses and in the other was a big ripped peach. "So now you have to distract Hinamori as I organize the room okay?" Matsumoto clarified; Kira nodded.

Matsumoto entered the empty room; Aizen was out at the moment, probably thinking of a gift for Hinamori or something. In her hands were the hundreds of roses that were picked, but there was also one that was fake, and it had no stem, just the head. But it was placed in the middle of the sliced peaches which lay in the clean white dish.

She placed the dish on Hinamori's desk when she noticed the box. Cautiously she looked inside the golden card and read it. 'That's so cute of taichou….' She thought dreamily. Then she threw the roses all over the room.

Soon the room was full of the beautiful roses with the wonderful scent they gave off.

Kira had checked the sun, it was near set now, and he was talking to Hinamori about her birthday. 'Matsumoto should be done now.' Kira thought. He waved bye to Hinamori and walked back to the tenth division office to meet with Matsumoto.

Hinamori's P.O.V.

I waved bye to Kira and started back to my office. I was hoping to spend more time with Shiro-chan, but I guess he was busy or something because I didn't see him as I spent my day with Kira.

Oh wow, the sun has nearly set, I should've done some work…I hope Aizen taichou isn't busy working away as I had my fun…. Why do I care so much for Aizen anyways, I really have to think more about that.

I reached my office and opened the sliding door. Oh…my…god… the room is beautiful! And it smells so wonderful, who would've set this up for me? Aizen taichou or Shiro-chan? I went to my desk and saw sliced peaches with a fake rose head in the middle of the organized bunch. Below the plate was written: 'I'll love you until the last rose dies.' Who wrote this for me?

And beside it was the box that I saw Shiro-chan holding this morning…I knew it was my present! I'm so happy he remembered my birthday was today, oh I'm so happy! I slowly untied the ribbon and the box unfolded, revealing the secret inside.

A white furry stuffed bear was inside, with a cute red bow on its neck. I just noticed the card which was lying beside the box. I opened the royal card and looked inside. Tears started welling up inside my eyes; this was really the best present he ever gave me.

I'm going to call this bear Shiro-chan.
