Game of Hearts
Kensei .:. Orihime
Enemies:.
She couldn't stop thinking about his kiss. For the past three days he'd been acting normal: yelling at her for her immaturity, giving blunt advice on battle tactics to his comrades, and doing his best to avoid the ever annoying presence of Mashiro.
But she couldn't stop thinking about it.
She had never noticed how much time Mashiro actually spent lingering around Muguruma-san til after that kiss... not that it was any of her business on who lingered around him... but she couldn't help but notice.
At least he seemed annoyed by the attention.
"Inoue-chan?" a voice called out, jolting her from her thoughts. Her vision focused on the concerned face in front of her, his orange hair finally registering in her mind.
"Oh... oh! Kurosaki-kun! What... um... I mean... why... are you... um... here?!" she stuttered, turning her face away in an attempt to hide her ever growing blush. He'd caught her in the middle of thinking about Muguruma-san...
...wait... she just realized that'd been her first kiss?!
"Inoue-chan..." he tried again, his eyes furrowing at the expressions that crossed her face. It was times like these he really wished he knew what was going on in her mind. "Why haven't you come home yet? Everyone is worried about you."
No response.
"Inoue-chan?"
"S...sorry! Um... just tired and everything! Working very hard on getting stronger!" She chuckled nervously, trying to change the subject. "How is everyone? I'll come and visit soon! Maybe I can make lunch and..."
"Is something wrong?"
"W...why would... anything... be... um... wrong?"
"I heard you were acting strange so I came to check on you. Maybe you've been here for too long."
His eyes bore down on her, making her feel uncomfortable under his intense stare. Who had noticed that she was acting strange? She was absolutely positive Mugurma-san wouldn't say anything... but then who did? If he had told someone would they have told Kursosaki-kun? Maybe the aliens...
"You're spacing out again."
"Oh! N...no I haven't been here too long! Heh, I'm just tired! That's why I'm taking the day off today! So, I can sleep and stuff and I should probably be going now! Tell everyone I said hi and..." She stood up in an attempt to walk off only to be cut off by the large hand that wrapped around her wrist.
She couldn't take that look in his eyes. That look that said he knew she was lying and that he could see straight through her.
She'd fallen in love with that intense gaze.
He looked like he was about to say something, shutting his mouth slowly as he thought whatever he was thinking over. "Come back soon," he finally muttered, letting go of her elbow. "We all miss you."
She smiled, trying her best not to look at him for too long. "Thank you."
He watched her run out of the room, letting out a sigh as she disappeared. "...and don't do anything stupid," he mumbled in defeat, realizing that maybe he'd gone about things the wrong way.

"What're you looking for Kensei!?"
He didn't respond. He figured if he could just ignore that annoying voice that constantly followed him that it might eventually shut up. Unfortunately for him, it never did.
"Oops! Not that way!" The owner of the annoying voice jumped in front of him, shaking her finger in disapproval. "Inoue-chan is very busy with a very important discussion! No interrupting!"
She didn't miss the visible aggravation at the name of the auburn haired girl.
"What important discussion?"
"With Berry-tan of course! I told him that she was acting all the funny and he rushed right over!" She grabbed a hold of Kensei's hand, pulling him in a different direction. "Not that it matters to you."
He huffed in agreement, trying to hide is discontent with the situation. Why the hell did Ichigo have to be the one to check up on her?
He'd been very aware of his competition after Lisa's announcement of his 'rival'. Not that he was too worried since Ichigo had all the time in the world to make a move on the beautiful girl and hadn't. What was holding him back? Maybe he wasn't interested in her at all and Kensei had nothing to worry about?
Who couldn't be interested in Inoue though? She was just so... so... alluring.
"You've been acting strange too, Kensei," Mashiro cooed, a smile crossing her face. "I mean we haven't been having fun lately like we used to."
He could feel her fingers slowly traveling up his arms, her body pushing up against his own. When had they stopped walking? He really hadn't been paying attention to what was going on around him.
"Not in the mood."
"But you're always in the mood Kensei!" she countered, pouting when he pushed her away. "I bet it has to do with Inoue-chan, doesn't it?"
He quirked an eyebrow her, her attitude getting on his nerves a little more than usual... which was considerably hard to do considering he wanted to kill her on a regular basis. "What's that matter to you?"
Mashiro did not appreciate being walked away from, especially for another woman.

Hachi had said that Inoue wasn't feeling well and had stayed in bed in order to catch up on some sleep, but he had the unshakeable feeling that maybe she wasn't leaving because something had happened between her and Ichigo.
Maybe she was depressed?
Maybe Ichigo had made a move on her?
He'd kill him if he did.
The dark hallway seemed longer than normal as he walked down it, trying to concentrate his thoughts on anything but on how creepy he was acting at the moment. Sure, she'd come in his room before but it wasn't while everyone else was sleeping and it sure wasn't while he was sleeping.
What the hell was he thinking?
He paused in front of her door, his hollow pushing up inside him in an urge to make him reach for the door handle. He could feel the desire fill his every pore at the fantasies that loomed in his mind.
He couldn't stop himself from opening the door.
"Who is it?" a sweet voice called out at the sound of the door opening.
"Kensei."
An uncomfortable silence came between them.
"I just wanted to see if you were alright."
"I was just tired! Really I'm fine!"
He reached towards her wall, switching on the light so he could actually see the person he was talking to.
She look disheveled, her hair clearly messed up from sleeping the entire day. She was sitting up in her bed, her legs sprawled out next to her and bent backwards in a position that looked in no way comfortable, with all her body weight leaning back onto her arms.
The loose t-shirt she was wearing in no way covered up her round curves that his hollow was just dying to touch.
"I'm just awake because I slept all day and stuff! I'm really fine!"
"You sure it had nothing to do with Ichigo coming?" he asked, stepping into the room a little farther. She turned away at his question, sitting herself up a little higher as if she was trying to convince herself of whatever she was saying more than she was trying to convince him.
"No, not at all! He just thought I was acting funny but I don't see why I would I mean... it's not like..."
Her eyes widened as he flash-stepped over in front of her, leaving her vision for only a split-second before he appeared right next to her.
"It's not like what?" he asked, his face looking down upon hers.
"Well... um... it's not like... um... I'm just tired maybe I should go back to bed..."
It felt like his hollow would break through him at any moment as he tried to refrain himself from pushing her down and fucking her right there.
"It's not like what?"
"It's... uh... not like... anything has happened... that's um... significant... or... anything... recently... or..."
Her sentence was cut off as she felt his rough lips against her own, her mind drawing a blank as she felt her body getting pushed up to the wall behind her.
"Nothing significant?" he asked, a visible anger crossing his face. "So, this doesn't matter to you?"
She couldn't hide the blush at his direct words. "No! I..."
He kissed her again, his hand grabbing onto her shoulder and moving her body so she was lying below him. He smirked when he felt her respond to the kiss, only able to resist chuckling because he was so furious with her response.
It's not like anything has happened recently that's significant or anything.
He forced her mouth open with his tongue, eliciting a groan from her as he let his own explore her mouth. He pulled away, his golden eyes sending a shiver down her spine as he looked at her like that.
It was that intense gaze Ichigo had that made her love him so much.
"Nothing significant?"
"No... it was! I... um... that was my first kiss..." She blushed even darker when she heard him chuckle at her response.
"So you're innocent," he stated bluntly, letting his hand leave her shoulder and travel down her side. "I want to be your first everything."
He was kissing her again, his hands brushing up against her sides. She could feel the rough callouses on his hands against her skin as he found his way underneath her shirt, his large palms slowly finding their way upward.
She broke away from the kiss, pushing her hands against his chest as she tried to move him off of her. "Stop! Don't... don't..." she let out a loud moan as his fingers grazed the tops of her alert nipples, his thumb and forefinger slowly kneading it as she tried her best to push his hand away.
"I told you not to tempt me," he whispered. "Talking to another guy like him and posing yourself so sexy when I walked in. You're trying to push me over the edge aren't you?"
"N...no... I... I'm... not!" she gasped between groans as he pinched her other nipple, making her whelp out in pleasure.
Her eyes widened as she watched him slowly lift her shirt, his pace deliberately slow so he could watch her reaction.
He was still looking at her with that intense gaze.
"Please, stop! We shouldn't do this! This is stuff for... for..."
He ignored her, his mouth latching onto her right breast and nipping at her already teased nipple. She groaned at the pressure as he sucked on her, his mouth doing incredible things to her that made her feel a way she'd never felt before.
Is this what Rangiku had always described to her?
He pulled away to move to the next one, only to let out a growl of frustration to find her hand blocking the way. He easily moved it to the side but not before she got in a word of her own.
"This is stuff for couples to do!" she finally blurted out, her eyes trying to show the determination she was clearly lacking.
He was looking at her with those golden eyes, her mind losing any sense of restraint as he looked at her with that stupid gaze.
"Then we're a couple," he simply stated. "Now you have no excuses."
She couldn't argue before he'd latched himself onto her again.

God damn it what had he just done? What the hell was he thinking?
He knew it'd be a bad idea if he went to go visit her in the middle of the night, but it seemed like his restraint when it came to her was surprisingly thin.
He couldn't help but want her so badly and that fact that she was so innocent on top of beautiful didn't help at all. Not only did he want her but his hollow clearly desired her as well.
That couldn't possibly be a good thing.
The only reason he'd been able to hold himself back from fucking her right then and there was because somehow he'd managed to stop getting her to protest his advances.
Well, most of his advances but overtime he would make that change.
The way she moaned was enough to almost send him over the edge, and that was only from messing with her breasts. He hadn't even gotten the chance to make advances to her wet core...
Yeah, there was no way he could hold himself back forever. Not at this rate.
What had he gotten himself into?
