"Talking"
Thoughts
'Hand Signs'
Toshiro rested his chin on his palm as he listened carefully to the lecture that his teacher was giving the class. The weekend passed quickly as if came and now his group are now frantic over what piece they will play for the competition. Ms. Spencer really want to beat the other school, that they decided to go along with her just to make her happy since she made them all happy by creating the Music Club and allowing them to express their style and passion for music. The teen let out a silent sigh and peeked over to Ichigo was was just as bored as he was. Catching his gaze, Ichigo took out a piece of paper and scribbled down a note before handing it to Toshiro who was right next to him.
Are you bored out of your mind right now?
Toshiro silently chuckled and took hold of his pencil and responded and handed it back to Ichigo,
Of course I am! I would rather watch my Grandmother's corny soap operas than sit here.
Ichigo's eyes scanned the paper and tried to hold in his laughter. Suddenly an eraser was thrown at the back of Ichigo's head causing to turn around and glare at Tatsuki who was behind him. Apparently she was annoyed by their little note passing and hidden conversation that it was starting to her really irritating.
"Mr. Kurosaki!"
Jolting back to face the front the teacher was right in front of him looking rather pissed off, "Have you been paying attention to anything that I have just said for the past 5 minutes? What is so interesting that you had to turn around and ignore my lectures?"
Before Ichigo could speak, the teacher slammed his book onto his desk, "Meet after school so I can re-teach you what you have just missed!"
The teacher then returned to the front of the class and began his lessons once again. Ichigo just slumped down on his chair and mumbled some curses while Toshiro was looking at him curiously.
You like Ichigo, don't you! Don't deny it!
Toshiro quickly shook off the conversation that Miku and Shiori had given him a couple days ago. He can't possibly like Ichigo, sure he likes as a friend but does he like him more than a friend? His thoughts were interrupted as the final bell rang for every student to go home; Toshiro packed his things and looked over to Ichigo who just continue to sit there glaring at the teacher as if to burn holes into his skull. Ichigo finally noticed that the white haired teen was looking at him and gave him a reassuring smile,
"Gone to the club, I'll meet you there okay?" His smile was so genuine and warm that it made Toshiro's face light up like a furnace. Quickly nodding, Toshiro made his way out the classroom and went straight to the music room. His group gave him the usual greeting; Shiori smiling at him, Damon nodding and of course Miku hugging him to death.
Damon looked around Toshiro, "Where's Ichigo?"
'The idiot got himself detention for not paying attention to class, so he has to stay so that he can learn what he missed during class.'
Miku translated and Damon laughed, "He sure is an idiot."
Ms. Spencer walked up to the group with a confused expression, "Where's Ichigo?"
Everyone responded, while Toshiro signed, "Detention."
Ms. Spencer laughed, "That idiot." Before walking away to her desk.
Shiori looked at Damon, "Can you help me take it out from the closet?"
"Sure." They both walked away into the large closet and they dragged out an electric drum set that it is thin and portable. Damon went back into the closet and took out his guitar and settled in a chair next to the piano. Miku got hold of her cello and Toshiro sat on the bench of the piano.
"So, any ideas? The competition is coming up really soon. The other group already have their song and are already practicing it... So comments? Ideas?" Miku looked at her members but more on Toshiro in case he began signing his opinion.
"How about songs that are classical?"
Miku shook her head, "It's too common, people will get bored from it easily."
Toshiro ran a list of playable songs in his head, What piece have at least our instruments in it? Immediate Music? But we need a team of musicians... even Globus music...
"...shiro. Toshiro, have you got anything?" asked Shiori.
The white haired teen shook his head, 'I do have some songs but they need a lot of musicians...'
Damon strummed a cord, "Damn."
Toshiro turned around towards the piano and played a simple piece just to pass the time while thinking about a certain someone, I want to hear Ichigo's opinion... when is his detention going to end?
He looked at the clock on the wall and saw that 30 minutes passed since he entered the club and Ichigo has yet to arrive. Huffing, Toshiro stood up and walked towards the door, "Where are you going Toshiro?"
'I'm going to see if Ichigo is done with his detention.' He walked out of the door and into the hallways. Toshiro walked slowly towards his class and allowed his mind to wander, I wonder if Ichigo is... No, I doubt it. He won't like a mute guy like me... I bet he isn't even gay. Rukia is probably a perfect match for him or maybe even Tatsuki...
Toshiro turned the corner and ran into something or rather someone causing him to fall to the ground. At first he thought it was Ichigo heading to the club but he thought wrong when the figure spoke in a gruff voice, "Hey watch where you're going!"
The Hitsugaya looked up and saw a student with teal hair and teal eyes, Oh no! It's Grimmjow! What should I do? Grimmjow has a reputation of being the school bully and for some reason he never got into real trouble or even getting expelled for the things he has done.
"Say something you bastard! You better say you're damn sorry for running to me." Toshiro just stared at him with wide eyes and said nothing, he knew completely that Grimmjow can't understand sign language.
"Hey, aren't you that mute kid Hitsugaya? Yeah, you are. Heh, lucky me. I can pound you without having you to scream for help." Grimmjow took a step closer while Toshiro scooted back and onto a wall; he was cornered.
Grimmjow had this look in his eyes that resembled of a rapist, "You know, you are damn cute when I take a good look at you."
Grimmjow bent down and took hold of Toshiro's arms, picked him up and shoved him against the wall, facing away from him. Toshiro began to panic and threw his head back, his skull colliding with Grimmjow's face causing him to drop him and Toshiro made a break for it, only to get his ankle caught by Grimmjow again. Toshiro kicked the hand away, but it held fast; Grimmjow crawled over to Toshiro and pinned his arms and legs down.
"You have some spark in you, good, I like those who fight back. Makes things for fun."
Toshiro flailed around trying to get away, but he knew that the other guy was more bigger than him, I'm going to get raped by him! Ichigo! Ichgio, please save me!
"Heh, I bet you were never touched before, lucky me." His large hand went down to Toshiro zipper and pulled it down along with his pants. Toshiro froze in fear as Grimmjows hand touched his private part through his boxers.
"Not such a girl after all." He continued to touch Toshiro with a definite, triumphant smirk. Tears were building up in Toshiro's eyes, This is it. I'm going to lose my virginity to this guy. I wish it was Ichigo that did... God, I'm such a girl! I admit it! I love Ichigo. Please, please forgive me. Ichigo...
"Lucky for us that there's no one in this building, so we can go all out."
Toshiro let out choking noises and suddenly a classroom door slid up so fast and an orange head came out. Toshiro saw Ichigo at the corner of his eye, Ichigo Help Me!
Ichigo's eyes widen as big as saucers and were replaced with pure rage. He sprinted from the class and took hold of Grimmjow's uniform's collar, spun him around and landed a hook at the teal haired student's jaw.
"You bastard," hissed Grimmjow and he charged at Ichigo. The Berry used his body to catch Grimmjow and flipped him over and made Grimmjow land on his back. Immediately, Ichigo head locked Grimmjow, immobilizing him. Toshiro leaned against the wall and curled up into a ball shaking in fear, he knew that Ichigo saved him, but what had just happened was catching up to him very fast. The teacher came out of the room and took over the situation and took Grimmjow away. Ichigo rushed over to Toshiro and placed a hand on his shoulder, who flinched at his touch.
"Toshiro, it's me Ichigo. You don't have to be afraid afraid anymore. Grimmjow is gone, away from you." Toshiro latched onto Ichigo and began to sob uncontrollably, but it came out as choking noises. Ichigo held onto Toshiro and rocked him back and forth, trying to calm him down from his episode. Ichigo stood up, carrying Toshiro all the while, and went to collect Toshiro's pants. Toshiro knew he was safe with Ichigo and buried his face on the crook of Ichigo's neck and blacked out.
Toshiro felt warm and he knew for some reason he was on a bed. Panicked, he shot up and took in his surroundings; he was back at the Kurosaki Clinic. Toshiro let out a shaky breath for he thought Grimmjow was back to rape him. Lying back down, Toshiro closed his eyes and heard voices coming outside his door. He immediately recognized Ichigo's and the other was for sure female, Yuzu possibly.
Toshiro heard the door open and footsteps, it stopped suddenly and the sounds of someone sitting on a chair was heard. Ichigo stared at Toshiro's "sleeping" face and his heart felt a painful tug. He knew this feeling all too well; the feeling for failing to protect someone close to him. Ichigo dropped his head in his hands and held back a sob.
"This is all my fault. I'm so sorry Toshiro. If I hadn't gotten detention, none of this would have never happened." Toshiro continued to listen to Ichigo's words.
"I'm still not strong enough to even protect the one I love..." Ichigo froze at his words and looked up to see Toshiro's face who still had his eyes closed. The Berry let out a nervous chuckle,
"I just admitted my feeling for him and he can't hear me... I'm so pathetic."
Toshiro heard the chair scoot back and felt pressure on the bed, he opened his eyes just slightly to see Ichigo standing above him. Quickly he closed his eyes and suddenly felt a breath against his face, Is he? Is he really going to...
Ichigo inched closer to Toshiro lips, just centimeters away. Both of their hearts were pounding like a hummingbird's wings as the tension was growing. Ichigo stopped and pulled away slightly,
"I can't... I can't seem to do it. I can't even kiss him..." Ichigo looked away from Toshiro's face and did not see the emerald eyes open up and stare at him. Toshiro reached up and touched Ichigo's cheek which caused the Berry to snap his head and stare.
"Toshiro you're awake! I'm so sorry that I couldn't..." Ichigo was cut off for Toshiro leaned up and planted his lips against Ichigo's. The Berry was caught off guard and his arms that was hold him up on the bed accidently collapsed, causing them to deepen the kiss. Pulling away they both just stared into each other's eyes.
"Toshiro, I love you, ever since the moment you became my friend." Ichigo caressed Toshiro's cheek. Toshiro held up his hand and made a fist but his thumb, index and pinky fingers stuck up.
'I love you too, Ichigo.'
The Berry smiled greatly and kissed his new found boyfriend. His boyfriend wrapped his arms around Ichigo's neck and they stayed that way for a while. Little did they know, Yuzu was standing at the now open door, carrying a tray of hot food for Toshiro. She smiled and tiptoed back to her house and settled the tray on the dinner table. Karin looked over her shoulder from the couch, "Are they?"
Yuzu smiled even more, "Yeah."
Karin turned around and continued to watch T.V, a smile was plastered on her face as well, Congratulations Ichigo.
