Chapter 7:Orihime's Decision

Orihime was sitting in bed next to Nova. She felt so very guilty. Rangiku was still probably crying her eyes out over what she'd done. She felt as if she most likely killed a person instead of just taking away her fiancé.

She set her face in her hands and started crying. She couldn't do it. She had to give Nova back to Rangiku, no matter how much it hurt. He wasn't hers.

Nova was fast asleep dreaming of Orihime. She was the only one he wanted, now and forever. Why wouldn't people leave him alone about it?! The whole concept of him getting married to Rangiku Matsumoto confused him.

He awoke later to see Orihime, sitting there crying. He frowned and hugged her.

"What's wrong?" he asked, concerned.

"You need to leave," she barely whispered.

"No. Please tell me what's wrong," he said.

Orihime pushed him off. She had to be rougher to get him to go.

"You can't stay here anymore! Go back to Rangiku!" she exclaimed starting to push him toward the door. She was desperate to make him leave.

"But why?" he asked as she pushed him out the door. He started to come back in.

" Hinagiku, Baigon, Lily," Orihime exclaimed tearfully. " Santen Kesshun, I reject!" Immediately after that three little fairy things appeared from her hairpins and formed a type of force feild not letting Nova in. he was shocked. He didn't know she could do that!

"Alright. I understand. I'll go," he sighed, and walked off. He left her unwillingly, because he realized she felt bad about taking him from Rangiku. He wished she wouldn't, because that didn't matter to him. He loved her regardless.

He wandered all the way back home to Urahara's. He walked through the threshold silently. He was depressed.

"Nova!" Kurodo came by and saw him. He was in his human form and gawking at Nova's presence. "Why are you here?"

"Orihime made me leave," he sighed.

"Oh," Kurodo said then walked on. He seemed mad at him. Probably because of their past relations that he couldn't remember.

He sighed and went to the room he first woke up in. it was the same as ever. Untouched, seeming. He opened the window and peered out. If only he could be with Orihime. If only.

Days had past and Nova was still depressed. He missed Orihime so badly. He did nothing of use at home, mainly because everyone refused to talk to him. Nothing to him seemed right anymore.

He watched the outside again. There was nothing, but the beautiful day. That was until a huge crashing noise came from outside. It was coming from where Orihime lived.

Quickly he jumped out of the window and raced to the spot. He needed to know that she was okay.

Ichigo and Rangiku were already there before him and trying to fight off that same hollow from a week ago. She was the one that managed to knock him out causing the woe of all his problems.

She noticed him and laughed maniacally, "Ooo! You came back! How fun!" she raced toward him, but he dodged her. She tried again, but he dodged that too. He dodged until he noticed Orihime, lying on the ground, still alive, but hurt. She sat there watching him.

As quick as he could he raced to her. Immediately he hugged and kissed, longingly. He couldn't resist.

"Are you okay?" he asked concerned.

Orihime saw Rangiku when he did that. She was very sad.

"Yes. But you need to watch out, the hollow's coming this way!" she exclaimed, freaking out.

Nova picked her up and used his portal thingy and took her to a safer area of the grounds. He went off to go fight the creature to finish what had been started before.

Before he left he said, "I love you, Orihime."

The hollow constantly attacked, managing to dodge both Ichigo and Rangiku. This was one fast hollow!

Nova found it extremely difficult to dodge every attack she threw at him. He tried with all his might because he couldn't fight. He didn't know how!

Finally. The female hollow hit him good! He was shot backwards and hit a large tree. It knocked him out instantly.

Both of the soul reapers took that time to kill off that hollow while she was distracted. Ichigo cut right through her mask, and she was gone.

Orihime shuffled to Nova's side, as did Rangiku. Neither woman looked at each other. One was too mad to. The other too guilty.

All Orihime wanted now was for Nova to be with the one he really loved. She could always see it on his face whenever he saw all the ones he used to love, he looked sad. No matter how much he denied it, it was still there.

Almost everyone had accumulated around Nova, and the two women who loved him. They were all hoping he was okay.

Nova awoke with a slight headache. He peered around groggily at everyone he knew. He saw Rangiku and smiled. He sat up and hugged her.

Everyone gawked, shocked with what he was doing. Nova was actually loving the right woman.

"N...Nova?" Rangiku paused, unbelieving what she was witnessing.

"Yes," Rangiku?" he asked shyly his face was completely red which was what it always did when he was around her. He was totally comfortable around her.

"Are you feeling okay?" She wondered, concerned.

"My head hurts a little, but thats about it. So, did you kill that hollow?" he asked his love.

"Um, yes." She said stunned.

"Oh. That's good. You're not hurt are you?" he was acting more concerned for her than anyone else right now. He paid no mind to Orihime, which was how it used to be.

Ririn looked at Nova, as did Kurodo. They both looked traumatized and upset.

Nova looked back at them frowning. He didn't understand why they were too sad.

"What's wrong, Ririn?" he asked, "did something happen?"

He was acting as he did before he ever got amnesia. Ririn pounced at him in an embrace bawling. Kurodo soon followed, with out the bawling part though.

"You're back to normal! You're back to normal!" she cried so happy.

Everyone was starting to understand what was going on now. When Nova bumped his head he forgot everything he had experienced with his first case of amnesia and regained all of his memories. He had no recollection of his love with Orihime. He was back to his real life. This was the way it was supposed to be. Everyone was glad.

Orihime smiled and stood up. She peered at Nova, trying not to cry. She was happy that he had gained his memories.

She turned around and walked off to the park. She sat on a swing crying. This was the way it had to be and should be. It was better that he forgot about her. She was happy for him

"Hey. It's okay Orihime," one of her little fairies, Shuno said. "You'll find someone better. I promise. Everything will be okay."

"Thank you Shuno," Orihime sighed. "I know. Its just so hard to let go to someone you love."

Nova watched as Orhime left. He was sad for her. He didn't know that he loved her, but felt something there. Before he could get married to Rangiku he had to do one last thing for Orihime. It was just an instinct, but it would bother him if he didn't.

That night he appeared in her room while she was asleep. He peered at her fragileness as she slept. He could see the melancholy on her face.

"I don't know what I did to you, but I hope this will make it a little better," he announced, before he bent down and kissed her forehead.

"I love you," he murmured lightly, then caressed her cheek. She smiled and he disappeared back to Urahara's house. He felt like he had achieved one last thing for that girl, because he really did remember her, just barely, but now felt more a love of a sister towards her.

He lay down in bed next to his soon to be wife and kissed her lips as she slept. He lay back and stared at the ceiling.

I do love you Orihime, but there's someone I love more and have given myself to her first. There will always be a place for you though, I promise. I wont ever forget you. I can't ever forget you. That was the last thought he had before he went to sleep next to the one he truly held dearest.

End

(OMG! That was a difficult ending to write for me. At least I can work on my other fics now. Sigh. Thank you all for reading this through till the end. I very much appreciate it.)
