"Rukia, are you sure you really don't want to go back home and change?" Orihime said, pleading the petite girl as she walked down the street with her friends in a black halter top and a mini skirt and high heels and Rukia turned and frowned when she saw Hitsugaya, Kenpachi, Ikkaku, and Yumichika following them to Keigo's party.
"Yes I'm sure Orihime, aren't I allowed to dress like this?" Rukia said…in all honestly, she was only dressing like…a whore to get Hitsugaya back, for lying to her about everything. Orihime smiled nervously and punched Ichigo in the gut slightly to get him to say something.
"Come on Rukia, you can, we aren't saying that you can't, but…it's cold out!" Ichigo tipped out and Orihime, Uryu, and Chad palmed their faces and looked at Ichigo who shrugged. "At least I tried!" Ichigo hissed and Rukia turned back to face them.
"I'm going to be fine, and Ichigo, try better next time to leave, its ninety degrees dumbass." Rukia said as she got onto a brick path, that elevated from the ground and Rukia walked on it and then jumped down as the brick 'wall' ended and her heels made a large 'clack' as she stood on her feet.
"Rukia, you shouldn't jump with heels on, it's not good for you, and it'll hurt your feet." Orihime pointed out and Rukia looked back at her and gave Orihime a smile.
"I'm going to be just fine Orihime, don't worry about me." Rukia said as they turned the corner and Rukia had a bad feeling pit up in the corner of her stomach, but she pushed it away.
Thirty minutes later:
"I told you, I don't want a drink, I'm just fine." Rukia said politely as another guy tried to offer her some alcohol, but Rukia flat out refused, she was getting a little more than irritated by the fact that every guy tried to offer her some. Couldn't they get it through their thick skull that she wouldn't take or drink any alcohol! She was getting annoyed as she took a sip of her water and then looked around and saw all of her friends having fun while she was…doing nothing. Hisagi came up to her and sat right to her, taking a sip of his alcohol.
"Eh Rukia, why aren't you out there having fun, this is a party, you can't just sit here." Hisagi pointed out and Rukia groaned as she rested her head on Hisagi's shoulder.
"I don't feel like it, it's fucking ridiculous, I don't know what to do." Rukia said and Hisagi patted her back.
"It's alright Rukia, you'll find some way, and you could have a drink at least." Hisagi said as he offered a cup and Rukia rolled her eyes and took it and downed the alcohol content that was in there. When she was done she put the cup down on the table and Hisagi smiled at her and patted her head. "There we go, you are finally loosening up, now go on, and have fun." Hisagi said and Rukia rolled her eyes as he got up and walked towards the crowd and Rukia still stayed in her area until she eyed all of her body guards and saw two girls 'flirting' with Hitsugaya. Rukia felt something pit up in the bottom of her stomach, but she pushed it away and walked up to Keigo who had a brunette under his arm and her heels caught Keigo's attention.
"My Rukia, what revealing outfit you are wearing! Is there something I can help you with?!" Keigo asked and Rukia gave him a blank smile.
"Give me a bottle of your strongest alcohol, right now." Rukia demanded and Keigo handed her a large bottle and smiled at her.
"Make sure you don't get too drunk Rukia!" Keigo said as Rukia waved off the warning and began to pour a glass for herself.
An hour later:
"This is fucking ridiculous Kenpachi, she's flat ass drunk, can't we just take her home?" Hitsugaya said into the communicator and heard Kenpachi snort.
"We can't leave until she wants us to leave, calm down buddy, she's fine." Kenpachi said as all four eyed Rukia who was dancing with somebody but she was drunk, making her movements slippery and slow and clumsy.
"That guy is going to fucking take advantage of her if we don't do anything." Hitsugaya said and heard Ikkaku snort.
"Rukia has been known to take care of herself while she's drunk, trust me, been there, and have done that." Ikkaku said and Hitsugaya narrowed his eyes as the man tried to lean down over Rukia and kiss her which she allowed but then quickly shoved him off after the short peck. Yep, she was drunk, but he had to give it to her, she still had some sense racked into her scientific brain.
"Don't worry about her Hitsugaya, she's free as a butterfly, but as strong as a dragon, just watch, that guy is probably going to shove her up against the wall…see told you." Yumichika said as the guy got a firm grip on her waist and dragged her up against a wall and put her legs around his waist. Hitsugaya stared at them, with a little bit of anger sparking up and when the man tried to kiss her again, she refused and tried to take her legs off but he held a tighter grip, Hitsugaya had enough strength to snap a neck in half.
"She's going to get raped." Hitsugaya snarled into the communicator and Kenpachi rolled his eyes.
"She won't, if she can't get out and it looks like she is really struggling, you can be prince charming and save her." Kenpachi said dully and Hitsugaya sighed.
"I am no Prince Charming Kenpachi." Hitsugaya said and Kenpachi snorted.
"You will be to this girl someday." Kenpachi muttered and Hitsugaya pressed his hand to the communicator.
"I heard that bastard." Hitsugaya replied as he saw Rukia taking her legs off but the guy tried to force her legs back up and his hands tried to creep up her shirt, Rukia pushed him away, but he kept on progressing. Hitsugaya saw and he just kept on looking as the man's face twisted in anger and Rukia pushed him off, but he grinded himself into her and wouldn't let Rukia go. Rukia was starting to struggle and Hitsugaya saw Kenpachi shoot him a look.
"Just wait for it Hitsugaya." Kenpachi said and Hitsugaya gave him a cold glare.
"How the hell do you suppose to avoid it damn it?! She's going to get fucking raped." Hitsugaya hissed into the communicator and looked at Rukia who was getting angry and tried pushing him off, Hitsugaya gripped his hand into a fist.
"You have no patience do you? Wait one minute." Kenpachi said and Kenpachi hummed a tune, making Hitsugaya more annoyed as Hitsugaya watched and he couldn't take it anymore, he walked over and then punched the guy and grabbed Rukia and then signaled for everybody to leave.
"You know Hitsugaya, patience is a virtue." Yumichika said as an irritated Hitsugaya walked out with Rukia hanging over his shoulder, his arm fully encased around her waist.
"Then I don't have that virtue." Hitsugaya spat and Ikkaku rolled his eyes.
"She was going to handle it Hitsugaya, you don't need to jump in." Ikkaku pointed out and Hitsugaya turned to glare at him, the three could have sworn it went about ten degrees colder.
"I'm her damn bodyguard, meaning that I take care of her and protect her." Hitsugaya snarled out and everybody backed off, he was pissed, he heard Rukia groaning.
"Where am I?" Rukia asked as she stared limply at the ground, Hitsugaya sighed.
"You are going home." Hitsugaya replied with no tone and Rukia looked up and saw Kenpachi, Yumichika, and Ikkaku behind them and Rukia was ready to puke out to her heart's desire soon.
"Okay then." Rukia whispered and Hitsugaya looked at her.
"You are so stupid, how could you get drunk?" Hitsugaya demanded and Rukia didn't respond.
"I think I have every right to, I'm eighteen and I'm old enough to make my own god damn decisions." Rukia said and Hitsugaya's grip tightened.
"Not under my damn watch you won't." Hitsugaya hissed and Rukia rolled her eyes before she closed her eyes against and might just cooperate, he was taking her home and she didn't want to seem like a bitch to him.
Twenty minutes later:
Hitsugaya put her gently down on her bed, she had fallen asleep on the way home, must have been from all of that alcohol. He looked down at her sleeping figure, even though she was asleep, she looked quiet, calm, and peaceful. He had the urge to brush his finger tips over her pale white cheeks, but he closed his eyes, inhaled and then started walking away from her bedside. Rukia fluttered her eyes open just to see Hitsugaya in her line of vision.
"Why do you even bother with me?" Rukia asked quietly and that got Hitsugaya's attention and he turned around, his hands in his pockets.
"It's my job Rukia; I can't do anything else about it." Rukia didn't like the answer; yeah sure, it was legitimate, for a dumbass. She wanted the truth, like straight up vodka from the bottle truth.
"You don't have to stay you know, you could always quit on this case." Rukia replied in a voice so quiet it was on the edge of a whisper, Hitsugaya sighed.
"Rukia, I know you want a legitimate answer, but that's the only answer I can give you, good night." Hitsugaya said as he started walking and Rukia pursed her lips and sighed.
"Just forget everything, just forget that I'm a Kuchiki, that we kissed, or whatever the hell we did and just see me as a normal girl, would you still be around me?" Rukia asked as she sat up in bed and Hitsugaya sighed as he looked at her, his emerald eyes flicking towards her violet eyes.
"There is no ever way to forget that you are a Kuchiki, that we kissed, and whatever the hell we did to become attracted to each other, the fact is Rukia, you aren't a normal girl." Hitsugaya said and Rukia closed her eyes and then fluttered them open.
"Then I'm asking you, would you still follow me, even if you weren't placed as my bodyguard?" Rukia asked and Hitsugaya felt his high raised shoulders go down a little bit and he looked at her with soft eyes.
"Even I didn't have to, I still would, because the fact is, no one can ever run away what they are truly here for, good night Rukia, and I'll see you in the morning." Hitsugaya said as he walked away and Rukia followed the tracing lines of his back as he walked out and Rukia looked down at her lap and looked up at the moon and got up to dress into her night wear.
