The next day, Orihime walked to her school again. She walked through the park as she normally did. She stopped when she got to the spot where she found the MP3 yesterday. She smiled and stood there for a moment. Soon, she saw a familiar bike speed past her. The biker made a breeze blow against Orihime; it blew her long orange hair. She immediately put her left hand in her hair to stop her hair from blowing.
She caught a glimpse of the biker. "Oh, it's the girl from yesterday." Orihime muttered.
She smiled and dusted off her khaki uniform, then continued to school.
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
"Orihime, why were you almost late this morning?" A boy with glasses asked her.
The school was on lunch break, most of the kids ate outside in front of the school. This is where Orihime and Uryu, her friend with glasses, were eating. They sat together on a stone bench.
"I don't know." Orihime said with a blank look on her face.
The two were silent for a few minuets before Uryu spoke.
"So," Uryu said opening up a conversation.
Orihime tilted her head, "Yeah?"
"Do you know anyone else here?" Uryu asked.
Orihime had just moved to this new town with her brother. Her brother, Sora, had to transfer for his job. Orihime was senior in High School, so really did mind the move, especially now since she wasn't fitting in much. You would think she would get attention from her male classmates.
"No, but I'm not discouraged." She said with a soft look in her eyes. She soon turned away and looked down.
Uryu saw she was upset. "Don't worry; I can introduce you to some of my friends."
Orihime smiled and looked back at him. "Really? I mean, Uryu, you're really nice to me. I didn't mean it like that." She tried to explain.
"No," he said adjusting his glasses. "I understand. Besides, I prefer to be alone." he said.
"I understand too!" she laughed.

After school, Orihime and Uryu were meeting at the gym. He was going to introduced her into his friend Ichigo.
Orihime and Uryu were there first, they waited outside the gym.
"I'm sure he'll be here soon." Uryu muttered looking around.
"It's no problem." She smiled and rocked back and forth on her feet.
Soon enough, an orange haired guy walked up to them. "Hey Uryu." He said as he waved at Uryu and Orihime.
"Ichigo, hi." Uryu replied.
Orihime smiled, but she didn't say anything.
"This is Orihime, I was telling her about you." Uryu said after clearing his throat.
"Oh, yeah. You said she was smart." Ichigo said examining her.
"Hi." Orihime said shyly.
Ichigo smiled at her.
"She said she didn't mind helping you out with Calculus." Uryu suggested to him.
"Really," Ichigo said changing his attention to her. "That's great Orihime."
Orihime kept a smile on her face as he spoke to her.
"You think you could come over to my house tomorrow after school?" Ichigo asked.
"Oh, yes!" she exclaimed.
Ichigo laughed, "Okay, you know where the hospital is?" Ichigo asked.
"Oh, no…" she said embarrassed.
"She's new around here, only been in town since the beginning of school." Uryu chimed in.
"I see, well no problem then. Uryu will give you directions I suppose." He said putting his hands in his pockets.
"I shall." Uryu muttered.
Soon a girl came from behind the gym. She was wearing a karategi and a black belt. Orihime knew her from yesterday; it was the girl on the bike. The girl walked up to Ichigo and tapped him on the back.
"Well, me and Orihime have got to go. I'll be talking to you later Ichigo." Uryu said as her grabbed Orihime's wrist.
"Oh, good bye Ichigo…" she said as Uryu pulled her away.
"I think that went well, don't you?" Uryu asked.
"Yeah, I think so.." she said while she was still being lead away from Ichigo by her wrist.
Orihime looked back at Ichigo, he was talking and the girl was waving her arms.
"Is she…" Orihime thought.
