69. Irregular Orbit
Rangiku watched Gin sleeping, sprawled across the bed. He shifted; he had been doing so nearly every minute since Rangiku had woken up. Gently, Rangiku played with his hair. He settled back to sleep. He always seemed to sleep better if he was near enough to Rangiku to be touching.
Sometimes, she wondered if Gin came to see her just so that he could sleep. Sometimes, he would be so tired after he had left her behind for whatever mysterious reason that he fell asleep with his head on her lap, an arm wrapped around her waist.
Those times, she loved him with all of her heart. But when he was away, it hurt. Once, he was away for so long that Rangiku began to wonder if he was going to come back. Her eyes had begun to wander, but then Gin walked back into her life and swept her off her feet. It happened every time. She always meant to end it back in the beginning when it had always left her confused and hurt.
Now, she accepted their strange relationship. She let herself look when he was gone, but no one was ever as amazing as Gin. He would return and she would hold him as close as she could for as long as she could. He always left, but he always came back.
This one makes me want a sleepy Gin on my lap.
