Inoue P.O.V.

Oblivious

I like to think that I know everything that happens with my friends. And I like to make sure that I'm able to help in any way possible whether it is an externally or internally wound I would do everything in my power to help and fix it. Especially, those around me who have sacrificed their lives one too many times to help me. My friends are my pillars and the sky to my world, because every single one of them shines like a ray of light. Others more than some but I don't want to leave anyone uncounted for.

Today is another wonderful day of school and I can't wait to see my friends! Kurosaki-kun, Kuchiki-san, Sado-kun, Ishida-kun and my closest friend, Tatsuki-chan! They are what my world revolves around, and they each hold a special place in my heart.

But today is a bit different than other days. First off, I woke up late and barely had enough time to take a shower then when I was hurrying to get to school, I saw a poor black cat wounded in the middle of the road. I placed my bag down and went over to heal the poor thing. Once it was healed the cat gave me a quick glance and went on its way. I went over to where I left my bag and continued on my way to Karakura High School.

I realized that the bell had already ringed since all the student who usually are outside are nowhere to be found. But then I hear a strange noise behind a bush but quickly dismiss it, also because I hear a moan coming from the bush and turn a good shade of red. I run into the building and try to calm down my hot face.

Once I make it to my class room I quickly bow to sensei to forgive my lateness and she just points to my seat so we can get back to studying what she is teaching. I take a seat on my chair and pay close attention to what she is saying but for some strange reason I feel a bit uneasy like there's butterflies in my stomach. I merely put it off as not eating anything in the morning and continue with listening to the lecture.

When the bell rings to single for lunch time, I quickly go find Tatsuki-chan so that we can eat together. I find her on the roof top talking to Kurosaki-kun, well, more like scolding him as Kurosaki-kun has an annoyed look on his face while she points an accusing finger at him. He soon nods his head and walks over to sit with the guys. Before I make my way over to Tatsuki-chan, I notice that she has a sad look on her face but when she notices me she quickly smiles and waves to me. I smile back and make my way towards her.

We all sit and eat lunch with everyone else bringing their usual foods while I have my different kinds of food. I politely ask everyone if they want a bite of my food but they all wave their hands and say that they're good as they are. Kuchiki-san is nice enough to ask for something on my plate and so is Tatsiki-chan. Although, they make a weird face and quickly take a drink from their beverages.

Then, after a couple minutes went by, I looked over to where the boys were sitting at and noticed something that was very unusual. Has Ishida-kun ever sat that close to Kurosaki-kun? I always remembered him at least sitting a couple feet away from the redhead but now he's not even five feet away from him. They also look like they're sharing food, but that could be Kurosaki-kun's way of sharing food since he appears to be shoving it on to Ishida-kun's small bento.

Tatsuki-chan notices me looking over to them and waves a hand in front of my face since I seemed to zoon out again with my mouth hanging a bit open. She asks if I'm okay and I nod and go back to eating my food. But Tatsuki-chan doesn't seem convinced and she looks over to where the boys are, with that same sad look I found her with when she departed from Kurosaki-kun. I don't ask her about it and just sum it up that she's just tired.

When the bell rings to signal for everyone to return back to class, Tatsuki-chan, Kuchiki-san, and I go to throw our lunches away and walk over to the door. We were the last ones to go through the door but before I can follow Tatsuki-chan and Kuchiki-san into the door. I look around and notice that Kurosaki-kun and Ishida-kun stayed behind as they stood by the rails their backs turned towards me. I want to go ask them if everything's okay but I know that if they ever need anything they'll ask me. I turn and leave them alone.

When I make it to my next class I felt like the hours went by like minutes and soon the next bell signals for everyone to move to their next class. Making my way into my class, I quickly remembered that I left my text book in my locker and ask for permission to go retrieve it. Sensei nods his head and tells me to make it quickly. I wished that today was the day that out of all of them I didn't have to forget my text book.

I walk over to my locker and retrieve my book, I then hurry back to the class but then I hear some noises coming from the bottom of the stairs. I stop my walking and try to hear what is going on, I soon hear two guys mumbling words and decide to get closer to hear what they are talking about. As soon as I can hear their voices a bit better, I realize that those voices belong to Kurosaki-kun and Ishida-kun.

I hide behind the corner and hold my book tightly to my chest. I know that it is wrong to eavesdrop but they have been acting weird the whole day that I say to myself that it's because I'm concern. I look from the side of the wall and see that Kurosaki-kun and Ishida-kun seem to be having a conversation, and they seem to be mad with each other since Kurosaki-kun and Ishida-kun both have their arms crossed over their chests and are not looking at each other. Then Kurosaki-kun sighs and looks over to Ishida-kun who is still not looking at him. Kurosaki-kun surprises me when he walks over to Ishida-kun and grabs his shoulders. He then begins to speak but I can't hear what he is saying but Ishida-kun finally looks at him and gives his own sigh. He pushes his glasses up and nods his head. They seem to have come to an agreement of some sort and surprise me even more.

My eyes nearly fall out of my socket at what I am seeing at the moment. Kurosaki-kun leans his face closely to Ishida-kun's, and Ishida-kun merely closes his eyes as if already expecting what is going to happen next. It seemed almost rehearsed with much experience in both parities since their lips move in sync and are holding each other close. I want to look away-I have to look away but for some reason I remain still, like I'm frozen in place and this is some weird joke on someone's part but I know deep down that it isn't.

The thing that soon get's me is how much passion both seem to be emitting in that kiss that they are sharing. Kurosaki-kun's arms move to hold Ishida-kun's waist and- if possible-bring their bodies closer to each other. Ishida-kun then raises his arms and locks them behind Kurosaki-kun's head, trying to remain as close as possible. They soon begin to moan and I distinctively remember a couple moaning that same tone when I was running to school that I heard from that bush.

My eyes soon begin to fill up with tears and I begin to leave as fast as my legs can take me. When I'm far enough I bring my hand up to cover my mouth to stop any sobbing noises coming from it. I don't know why I feel so disgusted with myself. Was it because I interrupted a sacred moment between the Shinigami and Quincy, not in presence but in spirit? I soon feel a hand touch my shoulder blade and I turn around. It's Tatsuki-chan and she has that same look that she wore when she was talking to Kurosaki-kun again. And then I realize. I soon break down and let myself be held by my best friend. My sobs being muffled by her shirt as she pats me on the back, whispering comforting words.

At that moment I knew what I had to do. It was either let my presence be known and take the battle to them or remain oblivious. I decided on the latter.

A/N: I was feeling a bit curious on what would happen if Inoue ever saw this so this came up. Hope you liked it.

Please leave a review they make me happy!

Kurosaki Uryuu: Glad you liked my one-shot! That's why I like writing! To make people enjoy a good story!

Remember you can also request for anything!

Note: I wrote this while listening to Fukai Mori, it seemed to put me in the mood. You should try to listen to it while reading this. It feels like a sad vibe and goes very well with the story.
