The summer went by quickly for the two friends; well at least for Rangiku since she spent most of her days on the beach catching a tan and the attention of most of the male species then at night she would hit the clubs or parties she was invited to and get pissed. At one point during their vacation she got so pissed drunk that she thought her name was Soi.
But unfortunately for Soi Fon the summer couldn't have gone any slower; she dislikes it when it's too hot and she dislikes people, so Los Angeles isn't really the place for her since it's like a billion degrees and a tourist hotspot. She spent a good majority of the summer wondering around with her camera and reading on the beach. Just because she was on vacation did not mean she slacked, she would often go swimming or to the gym. Even though she loved it when the sun would disappear, which left the sky dark with the only source of light, a small bright circle that changed its shape when it wanted and with small diamond like shaped sparkles. Unfortunately the nights in L.A were her biggest nightmare since they agreed on being joint to the hip, so where one goes the other follows. Since Rangiku spent most of her nights at clubs and parties, she got dragged there as well.
She absolutely hated clubs and parties but that did not mean she didn't go to them back in Japan. She just hated them over all since they were noisy and often filled with oversexed idiots that were looking for an easy fuck for the night. Every night before leaving for the hotel she would curse herself for letting Rangiku pick their holiday, she swore to herself that next year is going to be her pick.
Luckily for her someone had the decency to invent the Kindle, if it wasn't for the little device she was sure she wouldn't be able to survive and end up killing her friend in the most horrid of fashions. Once inside the clubs or parties, she would go to a corner and continue her reading, away from the crowd whilst keeping an eye on Rangiku. These were the times she was glad that no one seemed to pay attention to her and she wasn't drop dead gorgeous since four times out of ten, she would be left alone. But if she did catch someone's eye and they had the balls to ask her to dance, they would be rejected by an icy glare effectively causing the person to scamper away as if they had just seen an ugly beast threating to devour them for dinner. However if the person thought she was playing hard to get and decided to get touchy, they would receive a fist to their face or a roundhouse kick to their side.
The two returned back to Karakura Town a week ago and they're supposed to be starting school tomorrow. The two girls are making their way towards the river bank where they will be meeting a few friends just before the summer ends.
Arriving at the location they see four figures sitting on a red and white checked blanket with a picnic basket. The two girls approach the four figures, they all shouted "Hey." Rangiku replied the greetings with hugs and smiles while Soi Fon nodded in reply before plopping herself down on the blanket.
Now Soi Fon wasn't one for friends and to be honest she preferred it that way, meaning she got her personal space and was away from everyone. She even preferred to stay at home on a Friday night whilst all her friends were out getting pissed out of their heads that they wouldn't know up from down. But for a certain few she didn't mind after all they technically grew up together and even though she found her blonde companion annoying as hell, she trusted her more than anything and would without a doubt lay her life down for her in a heartbeat. So if Rangiku thought the four before her were okay and trust worthy then she guessed she didn't mind them either and let her well designed wall lower but just a little.
Sitting on the blanket is a guy with shoulder length red hair that is tied into a pony tail, his face has many odd markings on them, most of them were on his forehead: Renji Abarai, next to him was a short black haired girl, her hair style resembled an upside down onion: Rukia Kuchiki. Next to her is a black haired male with two pairs of feathers sticking up from his eyebrow, by the way he acted and talked you could easily mistake him for a girl; Yumichika Ayasegawa and finally next to him is oddly enough Ayasegawa's best friend, he is another tall guy but has a VERY shiny bald head that could probably outshine a freshly polished diamond; Ikkaku Madarame. For the rest of the afternoon they bickered about their summer and what they did.
The anti-social ebony headed girl sat there chuckling inwardly, not really paying attention to the conversation that is going on at the moment but more to the people sat down on the blanket. 'Ha, opposites really do attract don't they? Yumichika and Ikkaku are clearly evidence of it and well me and Rangiku' she thought. Her mind stated to wonder to the differences between the two males before her and her and Rangiku. The main thought that popped up is 'How ironic we humans work like this? We're friends but we're like heaven and Earth' more and more questions began to flash into her mind but she was soon ripped away from her thoughts.
"Did you read Star magazine?" Rukia asked, Renji and Ikkaku groaned whilst Soi Fon rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"Nope, what's it say?" The big bosomed blonde replied with a question, ignoring the groans and Soi Fon's eye roll.
"Apparently, Yoruichi Shihōin is coming to our school for something like rehab." Rukia answered.
Now all teens on the blanket were interested and yes even Soi Fon, they all yelled "What?" in a shocked and excited tone, excluding Soi Fon who yelled in shock and annoyance. She then sighed and thought 'Damn, I have to see that annoying woman again. Just when I thought I would have a normal senior year' she rolls her eyes as she remembers back to her trip.
It was about a week after her run in with the purple headed woman and she was lying on the sand with both her arms behind her head as she counted the stars. Rangiku was off at the beach party just a few metres away from the Chinese girl. Pit pat… pit pat…. Pit pat…. She hears light footsteps against the sand; they were almost silent but lucky for her. She has really good hearing. The footsteps seemed to get closer and closer to her; she readies herself just in case. Then suddenly the footsteps stop, following her instincts she turns around to see the person she's been hoping to avoid, Yoruichi Shihōin.
"Your names Soi Fon right?" The tanned woman asked.
"No, it's SpongeBob." She replied with an eye roll.
The response caused Yoruichi to giggles. "You're funny."
"Whatever." The Chinese girl got up ready to leave which caused the purple headed woman to frown.
A tanned hand stretches out and grabs Soi Fon's wrist. "Where you going?"
"Back to the party." She replied as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. She suddenly felt an unfamiliar flutter and warm feeling that she didn't like.
The tanned celebrity giggles "I didn't take you for a party kind of person."
"Whether I am or not, is none of your business." Soi Fon replied, tearing herself from the forgotten tanned hand and prepared herself to leave.
"Aw, come on don't be like that. Stay here for a bit I just want to talk to you."
"No thanks."
"I'll give you a kiss, if you stay." Yoruichi said in a teasing yet flirtatious tone which caused an uncharacteristic blush to appear on the Chinese girl.
"N-no thanks." Soi Fon replied as coldly as she could, silently thanking the heavens it was dark.
But unfortunately for Soi Fon the limited amount of light was enough for the celebrity to see the blush since a catty grin makes its way to the tanned face as a mischievous gleam sparkles in her golden eyes. "Aw, you don't have to be so shy." She says whilst walking towards the younger girl and sliding her hand that was around the pale wrist, up and down the younger girl's arm. She cups her hand around Soi Fon's cheek and slightly tilts her head, causing the Chinese girl to blush even more and gulp. Their lips were literally a millimetre apart, the older woman lightly brushed her lips against the younger girls until she heard screaming.
"Shit, I need to go." She lets out a frustrated sigh "I hope I get to see you again Soi Fon." She said before quickly pecking the younger girl and dashing off, leaving a very flustered and confused Soi Fon in the dark.
A scowl made its way to the Chinese girl's face as the warm feeling and flutter returned she quickly shook her head as she felt a blush coming.
"What do you mean rehab?" Rangiku asked with a brow raised.
"Um… apparently the producers, her parents and her agent are fed up with her behaviour. You how she drinks and parties to some ungodly hour and apparently she stormed off the set of a movie a few weeks ago and was three hours late to a concert." The black haired girl replied.
"Really?!" Rangiku replied, her blue eyes as wide as dinner plates.
"Ah finally, someone new and full of beauty." The feathered boy stated while grinning and sighing dreamily.
"Yes, yes! Boomchakalaka! A hot chick, I'm so gonna tap that!" Renji shouted out.
The two statements caused the four other teens to roll their eyes.
For the rest of the picnic, the only topic was about the celebrity Yoruichi Shihōin. The boys were challenging one another and arguing who would get her first, which caused a lot of laughter and a lot of huffing and scoffing from the dark haired girl.
NEXT MORNING:
Soi Fon is already up and in her uniform; a white shirt and black pants after all she isn't one for skirts. At the kitchen table is a man that is almost a foot taller than her; he has short black-navyish spiky hair and dark brown eyes that are almost black. Soi Fon makes her way to the other end where a coffee and toasted peanut butter and jelly sandwich is already made for her.
"So are you ready for your first day back?" The man asked trying to start a conversation.
The young Chinese girl scoffs "Course." Now some people may think the reply is snobbish and cocky but she has never had a problem with school, it has never been a challenge for her and still isn't but that doesn't mean she is one to laze around during her free time. She stuffs the last bit of her sandwich into her mouth before getting up and walking to the front door.
The reaction caused the man to sigh and shake his head "Have nice day Soi."
The only reply was the sound of the door slamming.
The younger girl makes her way downstairs to the lobby and goes through a black door which leads to the car park; she finds her black and yellow Camaro and hops in, throwing her bag into the passenger seat and speeding out of the tunnel of darkness.
