HEY! LAST CHAPPY HAD A LOT OF BITCHINESS IN IT… I'LL TRY MAKE IT INTERESTING AS I CAN…
DISCLAIMER: FOR THE ??TH TIME, I DUN OWN BLEACH AND 4 THE FIRST TIME, I DUN OWN "THANX 4 THE MEMORIES" BY FALL OUT BOY…
…
"We're not allowed to leave this property for a week and we don't even have school. Urgh, what would the teachers think of me?" Hinamori moaned to herself as she closed her finished maths homework.
"And why would a girl like you worry about that?" Hitsugaya grumbled back as he threw a devoured apple into the bin.
"What do you mean by a girl like me?"
There was an awkward silence for the next few seconds before Hinamori decided to break the ice again.
"I can't take this anymore… god, why can't we tell anyone our side to yesterday's accident?"
"First of all, Paris would whine that you started it first and dig her way through the principal to have her own ways and eventually win, getting us into more trouble. And secondly, you dun wanna mess with her."
"Why? You were good with Seth yesterday?"
"Her dad's in the mafia and it's not like I wanted to get into a fistfight with a-"
"They have mafia in the country?"
"It's a little something called 'divorce' when your parents decide to live separately?"
"Oh…"
Momo ran the tips of her fingers on her uneven, zig-zagged fringe that Paris'd given her. On the other side of the room, Toushiro was tightening the bandages around his chest and shoulder-blades where he was thrown into the lockers. They didn't try to break the ice in the current awkward silence like they had before.
'One night and one more time,
Thanks for the memories,
Even though they weren't so great;
"He tastes like you only sweeter!"
One night, yeah and one more time,
Thanks for-'
Hitsugaya quickly answered his mobile phone and answered it.
"Hello?"
"Hey Toushiro, is everything okay there?"
"Yea, why?"
"Did you two finish your homework?"
"Yeah… were you serious about the not-leaving-this-property thing?"
"Yes, that was a VERY serious matter. I'm shocked that a guy like you would do such a thing and let my niece get involved. It's just not like you guys at all."
"It's PROPERTY, right?"
"Mmhmm… I'll be back home in at least three to four hours, kay?"
"Yea, see ya."
"Bye!"
The boy stuffed his phone into the back pocket of his jeans and made his way towards the door.
"Hey, we're not allowed to leave!" Momo called, jumping up from her seat.
"Baka, we're not allowed to leave the property , not the house! The entire farm is our property…"
Hinamori sat in her chair, blushing. Why didn't she think of that before?
The girl ran upstairs into her room and shoved her school homework into her school bag. She then slammed open the window of her room to be met by the grape-scented breeze, once again. She was getting accustomed to this pretty well.
Hinamori stuck her head out of the window to get another breeze, caressing her face. She sighed and looked down to see Toushiro in front of the small tin shed from the other day.
FLASHBACK…
"Uncle, is that an outhouse?" Hinamori asked, pointing at the shed. Jyushiro first looked at his niece for a couple of seconds before bursting out laughing.
"No… In fact, I'm not really sure what's in there…"
"Then why don't you open it?"
"Because Toushiro's the only one to know where the key is… since he hid it…"
END FLASHBACK…
The shed was open and the boy was…
'Is he praying to something?...'
She leaned out more to take a closer look. She couldn't tell what was in there but she knew that he was praying to something. He looked so sad.
FLASHBACK…
"Momo, as you know, Toushiro lives with us."
"Yea, so what?"
"He knows about your parents and-"
"Your point is?!"
"He hasn't got any either… I shouldn't really tell you this because it's unfair to him but… He had a family like you too. Except, he-"
"UKITAKE!" The two turned around to see a fuming boy in the doorway. He grabbed the frail man by the shoulders. "I thought we agreed that I would tell her when I was ready!"
"Sorry Toushiro…"
Hitsugaya turned around and stormed off.
END FLASHBACK…
'How long are you gonna keep this up for?... Just let it out… Wha!... since when did I think stuff like this?...'
Momo jumped up a little, her foot accidentally leaving the floor. Her body tilted forward as she felt herself starting to fall out of the window. She tried to scream but her voice wouldn't come out.
'Crap…'
However, the teenager's reflects acted quickly and she grabbed the windowsill. She looked down and gulped.
'If I let go, it'd be at least a three to six metre drop… no, don't think about that…'
Hinamori started to swing herself side to side, grabbing the windowsill with both hands now.
'If I swing enough, I should be able to get my feet through the window… YES!'
The girl's feet went through the window but not enough.
'No!... I can't ask Hitsugaya for help or he'll think I'm an idiot… wait… who cares what he thinks of me?... it's not like I LIKE him or anything?... I dun know him enough to do that… wait, where did the last part come from?...'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hitsugaya closed the door to the tin shed and was about to lock it when he heard a 'thud' at least a few metres away from him from the left. He turned his head to the left but saw nothing until he looked up and saw Momo hanging from the window of her room.
"MOMO! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Wait… I might be able to do this without his help… I just have to-'
"MOMO! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?" Toushiro's voice boomed, scaring the female and making her hands lose their grip on the window sill. Her back fell against the wall, making her try to scrunch up in pain but it made her feet slip out of the window instead.
'Shit…'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The boy started to run towards the female that hung from the window but her feet slipped out and she started to fall.
'Shit…'
He quickly sprinted towards the falling teenager as fast as his legs could take him. Momo was at least only two metres off the ground now, still falling.
'Crap, CRAP, CRAP! I won't make it in time!... unless…'
Hitsugaya quickly leapt forward with his stomach upwards and his arms spread out so that he could catch the girl but to his dismay, she landed on his stomach.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"ARGH!" Momo yelped as she landed on her saviour's stomach. She fell back at the contact, making her head fall onto his chest. "Urgh… that hurt…"
"Say that to the one who sacrificed his stomach…"
"Sorry, thanks for breaking, OW! My… fall…"
The two sat up at the same time, making it look as if Hinamori was sitting in Toushiro's lap and their faces were dangerously close. The girl started to go red in her cheeks and-
"Uh-hum…" The teenagers turned to see Ukitake with his eyebrow raised and his arms crossed. "And what is the meaning of this?"
"It's not what it looks like!" Momo and Hitsugaya both blurted out at the same time.
"Toushiro, I will not let it slide if you try anything with her!"
"Wha?..."
"I was kidding! Now you two get inside…"
Hinamori stood up first, followed by Hitsugaya who walked towards the tin shed and was about to lock it.
"Toushiro, what's in there?"
"NOTHING!"
"Doesn't really look like it…"
Momo followed the boy and quickly caught a glimpse of what was inside the shack. A family photo. Hitsugaya looked at least eight years old. A smile took over her lips but it faded quickly.
'Why are there two Toushiro's in the photo?...'
