Give me two Weeks
Chapter 3: Sunday – Super electric
Karin was walking along the busy road trying to avoid bumping into anyone. She was sweating after her soccer practice and was now looking for a nice, cool shade. Karin took her cap off of her head and waved it like a fan in front of her face. She let out a sigh and closed her eyes. Bad idea. She felt a push sending her flying and collide with something cold.
There were no clouds in the sky and the heavy air hanging around him seemed to suffocate him. 'I'm going to die in heatstroke if I don't find that park soon! And to think that the others went to the beach willingly' Toushiro winced at the thought. Yachiru, the pink haired little devil, had offered to stay with Toushiro if 'Ken-chan' would stay too. A sudden chill run down his spine when he thought about the little girl. She was worst than drunken Matsumoto. There was one thing she was good at thought, eating sweets. The orphans told him that there was a ghost who steals any sweets you haven't eaten yet, but Toushiro was sure that Yachiru was the candy thief. He saw her at the cookie jar yesterday when he got to the orphanage. He didn't know how she could have gotten to the kitchen when the door there was locked – second though he didn't even want to know. Someone bumped into him waking him from his thoughts. He noticed how crowded the street was. 'Where did all these people come from? Didn't these people have anything better to do at Sundays than overpopulate the streets?' He was feeling extremely annoyed and that you could blame the stupid sun casting its heat upon him. He glared at the yellow ball at the sky. And because of that he became momentarily blind by the brightness of the warm star and closed his eyes by instinct. In the crowded street doing that was very risky. He felt a new weight bumping into him and the next moment he was on his back at the street with a black haired girl on top of him. Her legs were in kneeling position at his sides and she was sitting on his hips her hands on his chest. His eyes winded, he knew this girl!
Karin had her legs squeezing someone's sides while she was sitting on top of them her hands resting on a hard chest. The said girl lifted her head to look at the boy under her. Her eyes winded by the sight of Toushiro's teal eyes and white hair. Grey met blue-green. They stayed in that position looking into each other's eyes. Neither one of them wanting to break the silence. They blushed as an old woman walked past them mumbling about how kids these days have no shame. Karin quickly got off of him muttering an apology. She helped him back up to his feet. They fell in an awkward silence, both embarrassed by their position.
"Umm... How's your wrist?" Karin asked scaring the awkwardness away.
"Still a little swollen but fine" he looked his bandaged wrist.
"I'm sorry..." Karin said feeling guilty.
"Don't be, it wasn't your fault" Karin was about to protest when Toushiro continued:"I was the one that kicked the ball to the tree, so it was my fault"
"Still let me make it up to you..." Karin looked around the street finally finding the thing she was looking for. She took Toushiro's hand in hers and led the way through the crowd.
:.o.O.o.O.o.:
Both teens were sitting under a large tree at the park. They had finally found a shade and were now eating their quickly melting ice creams. Besides them there were only few little kids with their parents at the park.
"I still can't believe that there was watermelon flavored ice-cream in the whole wide world" Karin said liking her own orange flavored popsicle:"And even more unbelievable is that you like it!" Karin chuckled lightly. Thinking Toushiro eating a watermelon was somewhat amusing.
"What do you mean by that?" Toushiro asked irritated. Karin couldn't hold back anymore and burst out laughing. Her popsicle had melted to her hands making her fingers slippery. She dropped it to the ground.
"Oh crap" she sighed.
"Here you can have mine" she heard Toushiro offer. She turned her head only to get the ice-cream on her nose.
"What the –"
"Now were even" the white haired teen smirked.
"That's it! You asked for it!" Karin said declaring a war. While they were having their small ice-cream full war, they didn't seem to notice how dark and heavy clouds were quickly approaching them. In the middle of Karin's laugh there was a flash of light followed by a loud noise. Next thing Toushiro knew Karin was on his arms clutching tightly to his shirt. She was shaking. Toushiro didn't know what to do; he'd never been in a situation like this! And of course it just had to start raining. 'Just my luck...' He sighed. He told Karin that they should go before they get wet, but she wouldn't budge from her position in his arms. There was another flash of lightning accompanied by thunder. Karin flinched at the loud sound. Toushiro sighed again and adjusted Karin more comfortably on his lap. He awkwardly wrapped his arms around her shivering body and hugged her.
"It's going to be alright" he started whispering her ear trying to comfort her. Karin nodded and looked the dark sky. The little storm didn't seem to like the idea of Karin having her courage back and deiced to strike again. Karin screwed her eyes shut and buried her face in Toushiro's neck. Toushiro hugged her tighter. He kept whispering shooting words to Karin while the tree shielded them from the rain.
:.o.O.o.O.o.:
When the storm had ended and the sky was clear, with different colors of red and blue, couples that came to the park to see the sun set would say "How cute" about the sleeping pair under the tree.
