I Promise

I don't own Bleach

"5th division lieutenant Momo Hinamori" I stated "asking permission to enter sir."

I stood there for what felt like an hour until he pushed open the door. He looked at me like I had lost my mind again. I sure was getting that look a lot from him now a days.

"I thought you left the 5th" He asked

"Until I'm told other wise that is still my title sir" I said "last night you said we would be having a talk today."

I waited for him to say something anything. He pushed the door all the way open and walked back into the office. So I took that as my Que to follow him in. Matsumoto got up walked for the door stopping by me giving me a Small smile and winking at me. I took that one look to tell me that I was taking the right step.

"I'm sorry about the fight last night Captain Hitsugaya" I began "I know better then to attack a captain and I'm sorry to say that I've done it to you twice. I'm sorry..."

"I don't care Momo" Toshiro said

I smile a little, same old Toshiro cold as ice.

"I would also like to thank you for coming to my rescue when Aizen tried to kill me. Although you really had no reason to jump in and do that" I stated "I'm also sorry that you where hurt in process."

"No reason?" He asked

The room got cold again. I sighed this wasn't how I wanted this talk to go I was going to pour my heart out to him tell him everything about how I felt. But he was just taking it the wrong way.

"Why would you think I have to reason to protect you Momo" He snapped at me

"What reason do you have to want to protect me then" I sighed "Were just childhood friends...am I right?"

The look on his face said it all I was right he was holding something from me.

"Is that what you think?" He asked me "That you're just my childhood friend"

"I don't know Lil' Shiro" I said "The truth is when I was a asleep I was trapped in a world of darkness and it seemed the only thing that kept me for losings my mind was the sound of your voice. Talking about some of my old childhood memories, watermelons and me leaving for school."

I saw his eyes light up when I called him by the old nick name. The next thing I know I was being hugged by him again. I didn't try to fight it this time.

"I want you to know Momo" He cut me off "You don't have to do this alone I'm right here for you. You can have my room as long as you want I don't want you alone."

"I know that I'm not but now that I'm awake" I said into his shoulder "I feel so guilty for everything. attacking Izuru, believing that letter and attacking you. I've attacked you my oldest friend twice. You where my best friend growing up and even when we where children I had a hard time reading you. You are a lot like your zanpakuto cold. But that has never stopped me has it. I would still just show up and bug the hell out of you. And now I realize something Aizen did something good when he tried to kill me."

He gave me that look again. I couldn't help the small laugh.

"Don't give me that look" I stated "the funny thing about betrayal..."

"Momo" He cut me off again

I sighed I reached out and touched his arm and he looked up at me.

"The funny thing about betrayal" I tried again "is that you can finally see what's in front of you. I've had it rough for a wile now but the one that that has always been there. Has been you Toshiro. You made sure that I wasn't alone while you where in the world of the living, that I wouldn't have to be alone in at the 5th and after that fight you didn't force me to talk to you then you let Matsumoto knock some since into me. You are a good man and a great leader!"

"I don't feel like a good man" He said to me "But I can promise you this! That I'll make this right so that your soul isn't fighting this fight anymore and so that I can see you smiling face again. I miss seeing that Momo."

I don't know what came over me but I pulled away and kissed him right there on his lips. I opened my eyes and pulled away quickly blushing.

"I'm sorry" I sighed "I shouldn't have Done that"

The next thing I know he pulled me back into another kiss. When I pulled away this time I looked at him and smiled my big old smile.

"The reason why I fight so hard for you is because you have always been more then just my childhood friend" Toshiro stated "Now about you're living arguments...until you are told to return to the 5th you're staying with me."

He said that last part wile kissing my nose.

"Is that an order sir" I asked taking his hand in mine

"How about we call it a request" He said with a small smile

I smiled again and let go of his hand walking away from him.

"I'll see you tonight then" I said opening the door and walking out.

"Oh and Momo" He called to me

I turned and looked at him.

"Don't wet the bed" He said with a small laugh

"I promise" was all I said
