FullmetalKeyblade-13: Yukiko: Don't apologize! I love your rambles! I enjoy reading them. Thank you for commenting about the musical words I put in the chapter. I tend to mix up past and present sometimes. I'll work on it. Just to tell you, there might be more or these mistakes in this chapter too. ^_^; I'll sneak a photo of Toshiro in a uniform for you….. Toshiro: 'HEY!'
Tuliharja: Yukiko: Welcome to Silent Love at concert B! Yea, I thought of Ichigo in the piano, but I saw this one photo of him with the violin and I nearly passed out! TALK ABOUT SEXY! That question you asked it will be answered in future chapters! *winks*
kumonnetskazette: Yukiko: Welcome to Silent Love at Concert B! Whoo, that's a long name! Cool though! I'mma calls you Shiikkun-san. Well Shiikkun-san, I'm glad you love my chapters and don't worry about reviewing the others. And don't apologize for grammar, I suck at them too. *winks*

Lady Queria: Yukiko: I thought the song would be nice and upbeat to kick the other school's ass!I can't get over it either! I like saw a picture of Ichigo playing the violin and I was in shock!
Ebbie54: Yukiko: It's fine. Good to have you here with us again! Toshiro is soooo adorable when it comes to buying stuff ne? Toshiro: 'Don't classify me as cute!'
ForeverCellist: Yukiko: Welcome to Silent Love at Concert B! I'm really happy that you enjoy reading this story and for their age… I'd say Ichigo and Toshiro are 16 and Momo is 17 and can drive. I always see Momo as the elder one.
Days have gone by and our favorite musical group has been bombarded with requests from various students and teachers to play a song on their instrument. At first they would decline the requests politely, but it soon got out of hand and the requests were flat out rejected by either Ichigo or Damon. During these pass days, the group has been practicing non-stop for the upcoming recital and competition. Ms. Spencer kept her club classroom open later than normal all because of the students' begging to play more and she reluctantly agreed, even though she might get in trouble for keeping them later than usual. The other group had already perfected their piece a while back and was just staying in the club to listen to their other members' piece.
Toshiro sat on the piano with his fingers running rapidly through the keys, in-tune with Ichigo's violin, Shiori's drums, Damon's guitar and Miku's cello. Ichigo and Miku's eyes were closed in silent concentration as they caressed their bows along the strings of their instrument. Toshiro would sometimes catch Ichigo swaying his upper body along with his bow as a gentle smile was placed on his face; that in turn made him smile as well. Damon looked up from his guitar to Shiori and gave her a silent eye glance. She picked up on the message and tapped her drumsticks more lightly, this caught the other members' attention and they began to slow their song to an end. Applause was heard from the entire club as Ichigo and Toshiro's group made a quick small bow before cleaning up to go home.
Ichigo looked around the class to see Ms. Spencer not present, "Where's Ms. Spencer?"
Damon packed up his guitar, "She went to the main office to get something, I think." He pulled out his cell phone and left after saying goodbye. Everyone soon followed leaving only Ichigo, Toshiro, Miku and Shiori.
"We have to go, but I don't want to leave Ms. Spencer's class…" Miku said as she closed her cello case and putting inside the closet at the back of the room.
'We can wait for her to come back, you guys go on home,' Toshiro signed to Miku. The girl smiled and with her right hand made her hand flat, placed it against her lips and pulled forward to Toshiro and Ichigo.
'Thank you.'
Miku pulled on Shiori's arm and they left the room. All was quiet between Ichigo and Toshiro, but it was a comfortable silence.
"So Toshiro, what are you going to do for the weekend?"
The said teen took Ichigo's phone and began to type, 'Well, I was planning to go around town with Momo and Rangiku, since Rangiku wanted some bonding time with me…'
The Berry chuckled at Rangiku's methods of bonding; to her when it's bonding it means shop till you drop. Ichigo remembered perfectly well when Rangiku said that to him long ago, it still gave him the shivers. Rangiku wanted to dye Ichigo's hair black, but luckily he distracted with the store that was next to the salon. Ichigo noticed Toshiro opening the piano again and settling himself down on the bench before pressing a few keys. The song was really simple because Toshiro was only using one hand, but the melody made it look so complicated. Ichigo grabbed a nearby chair and set it next to his boyfriend, sat on it and listened to the piece. Toshiro smiled at his orange head lover and brought his other hand up to the keys and played softly. Ichigo opened his closed eyes and looked at Toshiro,
"Is slow pieces all you can play besides our piece?"
Toshiro stopped play all of a sudden and looked at Ichigo with a monotone expression, "I'm not saying you can't Toshiro! I just… all the piece that I hear from you are kind of slow…"
The Hitsugaya turned back to the piano and placed his fingers on keys again and his fingers, to Ichigo, went lightning fast across the piano. Ichigo couldn't keep his eye on at least one of Toshiro's fingers because at it looked alike was a blur. The melody was fast and quick like the wings of a bumblebee, but it was very elegant. Within seconds Toshiro ended the piece leaving Ichigo bewildered,
"What was that!"
'You said I can only play slow piece, well did that piece sound slow to you?'
Ichigo shook his head and a voice from behind called to them, "That was Flight of the Bumblebee. It's probably the fastest piece played on the piano."
Ms. Spencer had return from her errand to the office and returned in time to listen to Toshiro play.
"Oh welcome back Ms. Spencer."
The music teacher moved to her desk and placed the stacks of papers on the poor table, "Thanks for watching the class for me while I was gone. You guys could of just closed my door when you all were leaving, I have the key to the class you know. Now, go home before I get calls from your parents saying that I have kidnapped you both."
After having their way of saying goodbye, Toshiro watched Ichigo walk down the street to his home before entering in his own. Toshiro greeted Momo and Granny before going upstairs to dump his school bag and taking a quick shower.
"How was school Toshiro? Momo?"
"School was alright today Granny," Momo said before popping a piece of boiled radish into her mouth.
'Classes were good, after school practice was the same as always…' signed Toshiro before stabbing his broccoli with his chopsticks.
"But every time you guys play it's like magic! Oh! Remember Toshiro, you're coming with me and Rangiku to Karakura Center."
Toshiro finished his dinner and nodded to Momo; he then washed his dishes and headed upstairs to sleep.
The next morning, Toshiro was rudely awakened by a loud shrilling noise coming from downstairs and he immediately concluded, Rangiku…
Just he predicted Rangiku burst through his door and ran up to the side of his bed, "GOOD MORNING TOSHIRO! ARE YOU READY FOR SOME SHOP… I MEAN BONDING!"
Toshiro peeked out of his covers to glare at Rangiku before ducking back under to fall asleep again. Rangiku wouldn't have any of it so she grabbed hold of the comforters and yanked it so hard that Toshiro went tumbling down to the wood floor with a thud.
"COME ON TOSHIRO! IT'S SATURDAY! DON'T TELL ME THAT YOU'LL BE SLEEPING ALL DAY? GET UP!" She literally grabbed Toshiro's night shirt and dragged him to the bathroom ignoring him kicking the floor. After a few minutes of failing miserably to argue with Rangiku, for she didn't know sign language, Toshiro dressed in annoyance before following Rangiku and Momo out of the house to the shopping center. When they got there, the girls looked through various clothing stores while Toshiro trudged slowly behind them. After looking through a couple shops, Toshiro grew tired of following them and decided to sit at a nearby bench to wait for them. He then realized that he was sitting in front of that same music store that he saw the electric violin. Quickly he stood up and went inside the store to take a look around.
"Welcome to The Music Store, I'm Jushiro Ukitake the owner of this store," a man with the exact same hair color but longer in length came up from behind the counter and went up to Toshiro. The Hitsugaya wanted to talk back but he didn't have his notebook or Ichigo's phone, so he shook his head and touched his throat.
"Oh you can't speak? Well," Ukitake went back to the counter and got a pen and paper before handing back to Toshiro.
'I'm Toshiro Hitsugaya.'
"Wow! We have the same name!" Ukitake said excitedly.
'We do?'
The owner of the music shop wrote his name on the paper and pointed at the "Shiro" part on both their names,
"See? We have the same names! Anyways, what have you come to see in this music shop?" asked Ukitake.
'I want to see that electric violin on display over there.' Ukitake looked at the instrument before unhooking it from the stand and giving it to Toshiro.
"So you play the violin?" asked Jushiro.
Toshiro shook his head, 'No it's for someone very important to me.' The teen frowned as he looked at the price on the price tag and handed it back to the elder man.
"I know it's pricey but this instrument makes it worth the pay… tell you what, I'll hold this instrument for you when you come back ready to pay for this, okay?"
He didn't expect Toshiro to hug him right away; at least Ukitake was taller than him because Toshiro would have crushed the instrument between them.
'Thank you! Thank you very much! I'll get the money soon!' Toshiro wrote vigorously into the paper before handing it to Ukitake.
The elder white haired man smiled, "I know you can Toshiro. I'll bet the person whom you're giving this to will be very happy."
Little did Toshiro know, Momo and Rangiku were watching him from outside the store sitting on the bench across the way,
"So what is little Toshiro up to Momo?" asked Rangiku as she countered her shopping bags in front of her.
Momo placed her elbow on her knee before placing her chin on her hand with a thoughtful expression on her face, "I think I know and I'm going to help him get what he needs."
Yukiko: THAT TOOK FOREVER! UGH! MY HANDS HURT!
Toshiro: 'How is Momo going to help me?'
Yukiko & Momo: It's a S.E.C.R.E.T!
Ichigo: Girls today… well, please review and I'll try to get Yukiko to update more quickly than before…
