gonna be a HUGE time skip portion, so just go with it, sorry though ^^' (lazy person who didn't want to write more than she had too... *hides*)

Memories

Present Time: An hour away from Tokyo Tower

"I wonder how everyone is doing…" Momo thought as she looked out of the Tokyo Tower. She was sightseeing today since it was her last day in Tokyo. She decided to ask for her last day, at Seireitei College, off. "So many things to do... So little time…"

Yesterday

"Does Hitsugaya-sensei have another meeting?" asked a girl.

"Yes, he does. But before we do anything, I have something to tell you all."

"Tomorrow... Tomorrow is my last day. I didn't find out until yesterday afternoon, so I asked that I have my final day off, technically today is my last day." She said sadly.

"WHAT?" Everyone screamed.

"Do you want proof?"

"No, we believe you." Some kid said. (evidence of laziness at its finest XD)

"Ne, did you finally draw Hitsugaya-sensei?" Hikari asked.

"Uh. Oh yeah. I did. Why?"

"Can we see it?" asked some shy girls.

"I guess."

"That's really good. But it looks like there are more pictures behind that one. Can you show us?"

"Ha, you guys have learned to be observant. A bit too observant… But I don't mind."

"Sensei?"

"Do- Do you like Hitsugaya-sensei?" stumbled Mikuru.

"Eh? Why would you think that?"

"Look at your pictures. They're mostly centered on him." Saki blurted since the pictures, while they did include the class, were focused on him.

"… Crap..."

"Sorry."

"It's alright. That actually explains a lot."

"You didn't know?" some kids exclaimed.

"Well. I did. But I didn't think it'd affect me this much."

"Ooh." Was the echoed answer throughout the room.

"Are you going to tell him?" asked a curious boy.

"No. He doesn't need to know."

"WHY NOT?" Ichigo screamed. (not Kurosaki!)

"He isn't exactly fond of me."

"…Momo. You're an idiot. I thought artists were supposed to be very observant." Renji muttered.

"They are!"

"Well then you must not be. I can't believe you never noticed." He retorted.

"Noticed WHAT Renji?"

"Hitsugaya-sensei has feelings for you! He's really protective of you! Remember when you got sick? Do you NEED to have it in front of your face for it to sink in?"

"NO!"

"Good."

"Anyway, Shir- I mean Hitsugaya-sensei didn't leave any work for you all."

"Do we need to say anything?" the class asked slyly catching her mistake.

"Ye-No. Agh! Fine already! You guys tell him!"

"We're his LAST hour of the day!"

"I don't know what to do anymore." She said as she collapsed onto a chair.

"Sensei. We have an idea."

"And what would that be?"
"Which of your drawings of Sensei is your favorite?"

"This one. Why?"

"Can we have it?"

"Err… I guess."

"Your picture is in good hands."

"What are you guys going to do?"

"You'll see."

"Well can I at least make a copy?"

"Yeah. But we need the original."

"Alright I'll be back in about 5 minutes. No funny stuff got it?"

"Yes sensei."

"What are those kids up too?"

"Thank you~" they chimed as she left the room.

When Momo came back she found everyone speaking in a hushed whisper.

"What are you up to?"

"We're going to give the picture to Hitsugaya-sensei!"

"SHUT UP!" Renji roared at the poor boy.

"You're going to WHAT?"

"Nice going there Narumi…" Renji angrily muttered.

"Sorry…"

"You know what? Do what you want. I don't care anymore." Hinamori said as she slumped further into the chair she had unceremoniously plopped down on when she came back.

Hitomi walked up to her and spoke quietly not wanting the others to hear her.

"Sensei, although I'd prefer you didn't end up with Hitsugaya-sensei. There's no helping it. He likes you. Remember when I got you to be quiet during picture day? What I said was true, even though I didn't know it at the time. We're giving the picture to him to tell him that his love isn't one-sided. Haven't you noticed that Sensei isn't as strict as he used to be? He's not giving us as much homework? I heard from first period that the day you somehow got into his class he gave in quickly. He NEVER did that. It's proof that he likes you. Did you meet sometime before?" Hitomi explained and questioned.

"He's not as strict? He never used to give in? That's news to me. But yes, we were childhood friends."

"Well there you go. I'm sure he was surprised that someone looked somewhat similar to you and talked the same. Then he realized it was you."

"But he didn't realize who I was until…" Momo remembered.

"Until?"

"You were a part of the HTFC right?"

"Yeah..." she replied warily.

"Didn't you guys send Nemu after me?"

"Yes… What does this have to do anything with it?"

"I was knocked out so he took me home."

"Well there you go. There's your proof. AGAIN. He took you home!"

"Fine fine fine, he likes me. But how am I going to tel-

"We're going to tell him. Renji seems to know something we don't so he's cutting his first hour to talk to Sensei."

"He's cutting class? He shouldn't be do-"

"Let it go! Just accept that he likes you and that you like him! Stop being stubborn!"

"Class is going to be over soon. I hope you all know what you're doing."

"Course we do. We just need you to do something."

"And that would be?"

"Go to the office and ask all of Sensei's classes who have met you to meet here. Then you can go home."

"I'm not liking wher-"

"Who cares? Just do it!"

"Fine! I'll go and ask the office to make the announcement. Just don't get in trouble!"

"Can I have the copy and the original?"

"Yes…? Wait but I need the ori-"

"Have a fun day tomorrow Sensei. Go to Tokyo Tower at around 11AM that's the best time to be there. It's not crowded."

"But! The dra-"

"Trust me…"

And so, when she came back from the announcements; she was greeted with tears and smiles of all the students from throughout the year. (they cut class. apparently their teachers' love lives were more important than lessons from other teachers XD)

End Flashback

"What are they going to do…?" she thought worriedly as tears rolled down her cheeks remembering the hugs and make-shift presents she got from the students as they said their final goodbyes.
