Poetry

Rukia didn't have any duties today. She decided she would also take a break from sword practice as well. Today she decide to go to the library. It has been a while since she read a book and she didn't remember the last time she went to the library.

She was unsure of what type of book to get today so she wandered aimlessly waiting till something caught her eye. Row after row, nothing stood out. Everything was either a boring book about things that would put her to sleep or sappy romances.

Rukia stopped. A book on the fifth shelve looked very promising to her. Rukia reached up to get it. The tips of her fingers brushed the very bottom of it. She cursed her height. Rukia jumped and tried to get it but failed.

A hand appeared and easily got a hold of a book and held it out to her. Rukia turned her head to see who it was. It was Captain Aizen. Her back was less then a inch away from his chest. He leaned his head down next to her face.

"Is this the book you wanted?" He asked her politely. Rukia nodded, embarrassed by how close he was to her. Aizen looked at the title and smiled. "I didn't think you were the type who was into poetry, Miss Kuchiki."

"It caught my eye." Rukia moved away from him, her back now against the book case. She took the book from him and thanked him.

"If you like that book, I can suggest others I am sure you would enjoy."

"Thank you for the offer." She bowed and began to walk away. Rukia turned the corner and ran into some one. She fell backwards.

Luckily someone caught her. Rukia looked up too see Aizen's face. Her heart began beating faster. He almost seemed sad to relinquish his hold on her. "Are you okay, Miss Kuchiki?" He asked her with concern. "Your face is quite red."

"I'm okay." She said quickly before running off. She didn't know which made her heart beat faster, the running or him.
