Chapter 15: All Stories Must Come To An End
Previously:
"I…I wished so hard to see you again, Toshiro…and when-when I found out you were in the same class as me, I was so…" she was choking on her own words because of her crying. "I was so happy…!"
Hitsugaya smirked, and watched her cry by herself. "Are you sure…?"
"What do you think of…love?" her pink blush didn't fade.
"I'm serious, you know my feelings for you already." He leaned on the table.
"Oh please, no one in their right mind would want to date Rangiku." He rolled his eyes. "Anyways, I'm so sure because I know."
She blushed, and thought to herself, Did I ever see those wings on Toshiro's back…?
His smile was like gold, and his voice was dreamlike. "Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you I had no control over."
•
"Come on, Momo-Chan. It's been a whole month already! How long are you going to keep the poor guy waiting?" Rangiku folded her arms.
"He…He said I could take my time…" the peach mumbled.
"He said take your time, but he didn't say take forever!" the beauty tapped her foot, impatiently.
"But Rangiku-San, I just don't know if he'll…"
"Accept? Why would he reject you?! Your feelings for him are so obvious, it makes me want to cry not knowing you two aren't together yet!"
"Well, what about you, and Ichimaru?!" Momo tried to change the direction of the spotlight.
"E-Eh?! What about us?!" Matsumoto retorted.
"Don't act like you don't know…it's pretty obvious that you two have known each other for quite a long time now." Momo grinned.
She sighed, and whispered in Hinamori's ear, "Okay, fine, we recently started dating…"
"Seriously?!" Momo jumped back.
"Seriously." Rangiku nodded. "Which is why…" She grabbed Hinamori's hands, and started to swing their arms happily. "…You should also get together with Toshiro already!"
Momo glared at Rangiku. "We'll see."
"What? It's not like you hate the guy." She murmured.
"Yes, but I'm uncertain as to whether I actually love him…" Momo exhaled slowly.
Matsumoto shook her head. "I won't push you anymore, but I know for certain that you two are supposed to be together. Trust me on this one thing, Momo-Chan…he's Mr. Right for you."
•
"Alright class, since it's near winter break, I've decided to do fun activities for the last few days of school." The teacher announced.
"Hurray!" the class cheered.
"Wow, I can't believe it's already been a year." Izuru remarked.
"I know right? I can't wait to find out what these fun activities are!" Momo agreed.
"Today, we'll just be playing some games. I won't tell you what we're doing for the other days…spoilers." smirked the teacher.
•
"Shiro-Chan, you're not going to join in with the class?" Hinamori approached the snowball.
"Not interested." He replied, and continued reading his book.
"Doushite?" she tilted her head to the side.
"Just because."
"But I'm playing the games too." She pouted.
He raised an eyebrow. "Do you think that I'd join in, just because you're playing the games?"
"Hmm…maybe?" she tried.
"Haha…" He laughed, then put a straight face back on. "No."
"Oh come on, Shiro-Chan, don't be like that!" she grabbed his arm, and pulled him into the crowd of students.
"Whoa-Wait, Momo!" he dropped his book, and Momo dragged him into the class games.
•
It was the second to last day of school, and the students eagerly listened to the teacher, as they were all excited to hear what they'd be doing today.
"As you know, it'll be a different activity a day. Today, we'll be baking Christmas Cookies." smiled the teacher. "Just try not to burn down the school."
Toshiro teased Momo, "Hear that, Nomo?"
"Hmph!" she folded her arms, and turned away from him.
"Please get into partners, wear aprons, and remember, hygiene!" instructed the teacher.
"Ah, Sensei, how many cookies do we get to take home each?" asked a curious peach.
"Well, after we finish baking the cookies, while we wait for them to cool down, we'll be making our own little bags to put the cookies in. So, I'd say about…six to ten cookies each?" the teacher guessed.
"I see…thank you." She walked over to her childhood friend. "Lil' Shiro, we need to get into partners."
"And so…?" he tilted his head to the side.
Hinamori linked arms with him. "You'll be my partner, right?" she smiled cheerfully at him.
He ran his hand through his hair, and shifted his gaze elsewhere. "You really don't give me a choice to say no to that…"
•
Later…
"BEDWETTER MOMO, YOU'RE GOING TO KILL US ALL!" Toshiro yelled, as he tried to correct her mistakes.
"I'm sorry! I didn't know that was the salt; I thought it was the sugar!" she apologized.
"I knew partnering up with you wouldn't be a good idea…" he grumbled.
"Hey, I can cook some things well! Like omelette!"
"Yeah, but sometimes you can cook the most inedible things in the world." He glared at her.
"That's not true!"
"Look, are you trying to give everyone food poisoning, or are you trying to create an explosion in the kitchen?" Toshiro asked her, bluntly.
"Neither!" she responded.
"Then follow the recipe's instructions!" he threw the recipe book at her.
She sighed, as the book hit her face. "Hai, Hai…"
•
"Well…miraculously, the cookies seemed to have turned out normal in the end." blinked Kira.
"Sheesh, you're a great friend, Kira-Kun." Momo muttered. "Anyways, I'm sure they taste just fine!" she picked up a small cookie, and was about to pop it into her mouth, until someone held her hand, and redirected the cookie into their mouth instead.
"Heh…you're right, Momo, they taste pretty normal, even for your random skills in cooking. But I suppose they turned out alright, because I was your partner." Hitsugaya swallowed the piece of baking.
"I was going to eat that one!" she glared at him.
"Haha, my bad." He chuckled, and quickly walked away, before she gave chase.
•
The last day of school had arrived fast, and Momo pondered over Toshiro's confession more. I know I've kept him waiting for ages now, and I really want to give him an answer before winter break starts, but…I don't know what to tell him. The petite girl sighed, and opened the sliding door to the classroom.
"Ah, Hinamori-Kun, good timing. The teacher just announced to us that we'll be sewing." The friendly blonde male smiled at her.
"Really?! Sewing?!" her mood immediately changed.
"That's correct. We'll be making Christmas Teddy Bears." He pointed to the writing board. "All the information's on there."
Momo dived to her seat, and could barely sit still. Sewing was one of her best qualities, after all.
"Alright Class, everyone gets to choose one material for the teddy, and then I'll hand out the sheet of instructions, so all of you can independently learn how to make the bears. Please be aware of what material you choose, because once you choose it, you stick with it. I won't allow any returns. Now, get sewing." The teacher said.
Hitsugaya had chosen the plainest color-White. And Hinamori had chosen a nice color-Sakura pink.
The young genius grinned competitively at his rival. "I'll race you."
Hinamori laughed. "Bring it on, Shiro-Chan!"
The two sewed as fast as they could, but still tried to make the bear as perfect as possible at the same time. By the end of the day, the two had completed the bears.
Since it was the last day of school, students had rushed out as fast as they could, excited for the break. Momo and Toshiro were left in the classroom alone together.
"Hey, Shiro-Chan?" Momo tugged on his sleeve.
"Nani?" He turned to face her.
She held up the pink teddy in front of him. "I'm giving you this."
Hitsugaya blinked, then took the bear and smiled. "Arigato, I'll treasure it." He picked up his white bear, and gave it to Momo. "Let's do an exchange; you can have mine."
"Honto Ni?" she gasped.
Toshiro nodded. "Of course."
"Arigato Gozaimasu, Shiro-Chan!" She hugged the bear.
"Do you mind if I name this bear Momo?" Toshiro tilted his head to the side.
"I don't mind at all! Can I call this white bear Toshiro as well?" she smiled at him.
"Ahaha, why not?" he returned the smile, and the two held up the bears, admiring them.
Hinamori then lowered her arms, and turned to face her childhood friend. "Toshiro…Anata ga Daisuki Desu…"
The wind blew through the windows of the classroom, and Toshiro almost couldn't believe his ears. "What…what was that?"
"I…I said I really like you!" She felt her cheeks redden.
He blinked twice, but then his brain finally processed the words clearly into his head. Hitsugaya grabbed her wrist, and pulled her into a hug. "About time. You finally said it, Momo."
And the one similar thing about the two bears that were named 'Toshiro' and 'Momo', was that the two teddies had a pair of wings each.
Hinamori leaned onto him, feelings very happy. Those pair of wings…I think I can finally see them on Toshiro's back.

20th of December, Toshiro Hitsugaya's Birthday…
"Happy Birthday, Shiro-Chan!" Momo burst a party popper.
"Geez Momo, now we have to clean up this small mess." He sighed. "But…thank you."
"You're welcome! Oh, by the way, Shiro-Chan, in five days' time it's Christmas…so I was thinking, can I just give you one present, which is both your Birthday and Christmas present?"
"Hmm…sure. I'm not greedy." He replied, calmly.
"Okay, so what do you want?" she asked.
"Hold on, let me think…" Toshiro thought about it for a while, and Momo thought he had fallen asleep. Just when she was about to ask if he was awake, he said, "I've decided on a present."
"?" Oh, so he is awake…
"Give it to me now." He demanded.
"But I don't know what it is…" Momo felt confused.
"A kiss." he smirked at her.
"W-What?!"
"You heard me."
"But…Shiro-Chan…!"
"There's no other thing I want right now." His eyes didn't leave her.
"…F-Fine! Keep your eyes closed!" she stammered. And slowly came closer to him. This…for some reason, I'm finding it hard to k-kiss him…
Hitsugaya secretly had one eye half open. Haha...she's really struggling...
"Um...eh...uh..." From this side? Or from the other side? I don't know what to do! I've never had to kiss someone like this before!
Toshiro sighed. She's too cute, how can I restrain myself? He grabbed the two ends of her scarf, and pulled her downwards, letting their lips connect. Hinamori was too shocked to react, and he soon gently pulled away.
"S-Shiro-Chan, you…" Momo blushed.
He chuckled, and caressed her. "You know, Momo, if I kiss you and you don't like it, you can always return it back."
"But then that would mean…!"
"Hahaha, of course, Momo!" The two laughed, and smiled at one another.
We'll always be together…and we'll never lie and say we wouldn't miss each other ever again.
