-Star's POV-
"Oh~! Rukia, who was that boy down there?!" Orihime greeted her bouncing in excitement as Rukia entered the shared room. "He was no one, just someone who walked me home due to an incident earlier." Rukia threw her purse on her bed and took off her jacket.
"Surely you got his number?" The orange asked, flopping down on her bed, "Absolutely not." "Why not? He was cute, Rukia!" Her small fingers ran through her hair, sighing. Honestly, she wasn't interested in anything but graduating at this point; a boy would just distract her and get in her away. "Orihime, I am not interested in dating right now, and you should know that." The girl had tried to get Rukia to go on multiple dates before, but Rukia refused every time. "I just think you would be happy with someone to love you, Rukia." "Thank you for the concern, but I'm happy with my books. I'm going to shower." Grabbing her shower kit, towel, and clothes, she exited her room and walked to the bathroom.
Steaming water ran down her back, washing the soap down the drain, the scent of lavender fill her senses. Stress washed away, she stood there as the water warmed her. Her mind went over the day's events; they were most diffidently out of the ordinary. She prayed that it wouldn't happen again.
Rukia was never the one to date, not even in high school. She had only ever liked one upper class-men whom was a good friend of hers, and his girlfriend she deeply looked up to, but they both passed away on their way to meet Rukia before school. Her heart was broken, split into a million pieces, and if it wasn't for her brother, she would have never returned to school. The driver of the car that hit them was never found, and she hated it. Byakuya did all her could to find the driver, but nothing showed up. She shut herself off, became cold, she kept telling herself it was her fault, only if she had told them not to come by the house that morning, and they would still be here. Kaien and Miyako might still be here.
The shower timer went off; she turned the water off and stepped out into the cold wash room, quickly grabbing a towel to wrap it around her. Pushing her memories of the past away, she dried off and got dressed in her night clothes, plaid pink sleep pants and a Chappy tank. Collecting her shower items, she went back to her dorm, putting herself to sleep.
-Stray's POV-
The next day at work, he just had to brag about the cutie he walked home last night, just a little. "Did she have a nice rack and big ass?" An excited Ikkaku asked. It was lunch time, they sat in the work room of the body shop, eating and conversing. "No man, she was little, but she had some curves. She was beautiful." The last part was muffled by the mouthful of sandwich. "Man what?! You can do better." Swallowing his food, Renji slapped Ikkaku's chips out of his hand, "Do better? She was the most gorgeous woman I have ever met! She's the famous, Byakuya Kuchiki's little sister." The red head rested back, placing hands behind his head, a sly smile on his face, Ikkaku's face was priceless, "THE Byakuya Kuchiki's little sister?! Did you even get her number?" His friend, now practically over the table, "No but, I know where she works. She was kinda mysterious, and cold. But I have a feeling she will warm up to me if I bug her enough."
That was lie, the woman made him nervous, but a good nervous. The more he thought of her, the more he wanted to see her, wanted to get to know her, she made his palms sweat and breath unsteady, and he had only been around her for 15 minutes at the most. The impression Rukia left on him was incredible, did she do this to all the men she came across?
Renji liked to think of himself as a bit of a ladies man, but in all reality, he was clumsy as fuck. He had had a couple of girlfriends, but they didn't last long, two to three weeks, maybe. He just couldn't find, 'the one'.
His boss, by the grace of God, actually let him off early, just around 5 P.M, he saw this as the perfect opportunity to go see little Miss. Kuchiki. Renji cleaned himself off, removing all the dirt and grease he had accumulated, and changed into a clean pair clothes he had stashed in his locker. He hurried out to the parking lot; the autumn wind blew bitterly, and got into the warm shelter of his car. The car was probably his prized possession. The black 1966 Ford Mustang Fastback was his first car, he and his father restored the car just in time for this 16th birthday, and he drove the hell out of it. It had all the bells and whistles, killer sound system, after market muffler, the matte black leather seats and all black interior, it was beautiful. Renji started the car, and drove to the university campus library, which wasn't hard to find, it was probably the largest library he had ever seen.
Getting out the car, he headed in to the library. The campus was pretty busy, many kinds walked about, talked and chatted with their friends, but once he got inside of the library it was fairly quiet. There were quite a few kids in the place but they seemed focused, never even noticing his entrance. And then there she was, organizing a few books on a cart to put them back in their rightful spots.
Renji walked to the counter and rang the bell, "Yes, just one second, please." His eyes watched as she finished up her action and turned around "Alright, how may I help-"Her once friendly smile went away, and a scowl replaced it. "What are you doing?!" Her voice was a harsh whisper, a girl with brown hair, about the length of Rukia's, was giggling at Rukia's flustered reaction to him showing up. The girl quickly stormed out from behind the taller counter to him, "Come with me."
-Star's POV-
Yes, she did tell her friend about the ordeal the other night, about the creep trying to get with her and Renji, only because it was the only thing she did all week that was interesting, and Momo got a kick out of it.
"What on God's green earth do you think you are doing here?! I told you to NOT come here." Rukia spat at him once the two were out of ear shot from the other students, he was like a dog, and he didn't know what the word no meant. What did he want with her away? "I was just coming to say 'hi', geez don't get your panties in a wad," Rukia pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed, "Well you said it, now leave please, I need to get back to work." Her legs worked fast to try and get past him but he was simply too big, and the book cases were too wide. Rukia felt him grip her shoulder, "Wait, no, what time do you get off work? We could go get coffee or something, whatever you like." She turned to face him "I get off in 30 minutes. WAIT, no, no, no, no, no. We are not going anywhere; I don't care if you are paying or whatever, absolutely not." "Rukia, seriously come on, it won't be long."
Rukia looked at him, he was almost pouting, and she sighed "I don't even know you, why would you want to take me to get coffee?" "Because I want to get to know you, Rukia" A flustered red came to her cheeks, and her arms crossed her chest, "Fine, you can pick me up at my dorm."
Once Rukia had gotten him out of the libaray and her hair, she set back down at the counter and rubbed her eyes. "So how was it?" Momo's nose poked out from behind her book, "Don't even say anything."
