Oh my! Guess what? I'm back! Sorry for the very long hiatus. I know I had you guys waiting. Really sorry. I've been occupied these days and I didn't have enough inspiration to continue writing. But now, I do! ;) So… I had to read my story again. Lol. Because I forgot where I ended. Btw, I don't need that yellow pad. So what, right? I'll just make it again. Hope it turns out better. Okay, shut up me! Here's the update… chapter 8! (Lol, that rhymes.)

By the way, in case you forgot the last chapter… (like I did)

Chapter 7 flashback

Momo and Toushiro were at the mall and they bumped unto Kenji. The two guys exchanged slight punches. Momo got pissed so she slapped Kenji and kicked him "in between". The "couple" left. Momo asked Toushiro to hug her, and so he did. Then…

"Hitsugaya-kun, did you ever have a girlfriend?" Momo asked.

Hitsugaya was caught off-guard at the question.

"Uh… No."

"I see… what qualities do you look for a girl?"

Another killer question. Hitsugaya just described the one asking him.

"Uh… kind, honest, trustworthy, joyful and loving." Hitsugaya replied nervously.

"I see…" Momo sounded as if she was thinking if she fits the bill.

Then Hitsugaya returned the question."H-How about you? What is your ideal guy?"

"Hmmm… kind, gentleman, honest, trustworthy. The same with your answer. Well… just like you… My ideal guy is like you."

They both blushed madly.

"A-ah…" Hitsugaya was speechless.

-----------------

"Haha! Your face!" Momo laughed.

Toushiro's face turned more red because of embarrassment. Was she just joking? Oh come on, Toushiro. Of course she's just kidding. How could someone as royal as her fall for me? Funny, really.

"So, shall we?" Momo asked.

"Huh, what?" Toushiro lost his train of thought.

"I said, shall we go now?"

"W-where?" He's confused. For no absolute reason.

"Where else, home, of course!" Momo said with a little giggle.

"Oh yeah, right. Let's go."

-----------------

"Oh. No."

Momo held her dress's ends as she ran to Toushiro's room. She threw the door open and rushed to him.

"Hurry!" She gasped. Her bracelets began sounding as she began unbuttoning Toushiro's polo. Then, she pulled them down to his arms. When she was halfway with it, she realized she was stripping Toushiro. She blushed.

She saw his packed body. Momo blushed worse than before. She could feel heat climbing up her cheeks. Good thing she already wore make-up. She was unable to remove her eyes off his body. Correction. His hot body. What am I doing?!? Oh no, don't tell me he thinks…

She looked up to him, who looked rather confused. But she a hint of suspicion on his emerald eyes.

"I-I…" She paused as she felt Toushiro hands on her face. She turned more red than a tomato.

Momo's mind jumbled with random thoughts. Oh my, oh my! What's he going to do?!? Don't tell me he's going to… Oh, shut up, Momo! Shut-

Then Hitsugaya smiled. "You had too much blush-on." Then he wiped the excess off with his thumbs on either cheeks of Momo.

Oh… if you only knew, those are really my cheeks! Dang it, I'm blushing! Ugghh!!

Nice one, dude. What a stupid reason. Who would believe that? Only dumb people would believe that stupid alibi.

"Oh yeah… right. Too much make-up. I was in a hurry, that's why." She turned a little away. But she was still holding his polo.

Okay, maybe not. Maybe not only dumb people.

"So…" They coincidentally said in unison.

"Uhmm…" She left his polo hanging on his arms then she and opened Toushiro's closet. She grabbed random clothes and threw them on his bed. She got a midnight blue polo and a pair of loose jeans.

"My friends are coming by. They wanted to bash in. They're bringing the food." She said as she did the clothes-picking.

"Ah. But, why?" Toushiro said as he completely removed his top.

"Because it's… my birthday!" Momo turned to him with a smile.

"You're birthday? I-I didn't know! H-Happy birthday, Momo." Toushiro said, surprised.

"Thanks. It's alright. I didn't tell you anyways." She turned to him and saw him half-naked. She blushed again. "So… you change your clothes now. They'll be coming in 5 minutes." She began exiting his room. "Oh, by the way, whatever I tell them, just ride with me, okay?" She said with a wink.

Toushiro nodded. "Okay."

Then the door closed between them.

Crap. What will I get her for a gift?

-----------------

Ding-dong!

"Uhmm, Toush, could you please get the door?" Momo said as she fixed the living room together with their maid. "Thank you, Mika." She whispered and motioned the maid to leave to go to the backyard.

Toushiro went to the door and opened it.

"Hey, Toushiro! Where's the birthday girl?" Orihime said with obvious excitement.

"Coming!" Momo shouted as she ran to the door. "Hey! Come in."

Her friends made noise as they ran inside the house and placed themselves on the comfortable seats.

Toushiro closed the door as everyone went in.

All of a sudden, Momo wrapped her arm on Toushiro's. "It's nice of you guys to come here, but you're lucky enough because my parents are not here."

"Really? Where are they?" Rukia said.

"Some business trip." Momo said."Anyways, let's have fun!"

They began eating, drinking, talking, singing, dancing. Good thing Momo's house was quite isolated from others. At least, their noise won't be heard by the neighbors.

They began giving gifts to Momo. Momo glowed with appreciation and happiness.

"Hey, Toushiro, where's your gift for Momo?" Renji asked.

Toushiro fell silent. He asked himself the same question. Yeah, where's my gift for Momo? Or… more likely, what's my gift for her?

"Well…"

"Oh, he already gave me his gift." Momo smiled as she hung her arm on his shoulder.

"Really? What is it?" Her friends chimed with eagerness.

"This."

Toushiro's eyes widened. The crowd cheered.

Momo giggled as she released his lips. Toushiro was still shocked.

"Y-you mean…?" Ichigo said.

"Yeah, we're official." Momo proclaimed.

"Since when?" Rangiku asked.

"It doesn't matter!" Momo laughed.

"I knew it! You guys were too close for childhood friends!" Orihime exclaimed.

Toushiro faked a laugh. But still, he's confused. He pulled Momo away. "Excuse us."

"Sure, sure! Have fun!" Rangiku shouted.

-----------------

They went to upstairs to his room. He locked it, making sure no one would eavesdrop on their conversation.

"What was that?" Toushiro asked her.

"What what?" Momo asked.

"That one awhile ago?"

"Oh… this one?" And she repeated the act.

He gently pushed her away. "Are you crazy? You're drunk, aren't you?"

"Me, oh no. You just don't know the real me."

"What are you talking about?" Toushiro got more confused.

Momo laughed naughtily. "Don't worry, I'll show you…"

And so she pushed him down to the bed.

-----------------

Yay! I'm done! I know it's kinda short, and sorry about that. Also, sorry for the chapter title, can't think of anything else. By the way, from now on I'll strive to update my other stories, and post other new ones! I'll be finishing "Momo's New Shiro-chan" soon enough, just one chapter and it's done. Aww. By the way, read "Love Next Door" too! It's another HitsuHina fanfic. ;)

I guess that's all. Read and review! Bye! ;P
