CHAPTER 7 IS UP! WHOOHOO, ok nevermind. Sorry for being a little bit hyper, hehe well I hope you enjoyed the past chapters, please enjoy this one as well. (I'm not going to say to review…. I'm getting tired of saying the same things over and over again )

The shadow confesses

Normal POV

"Fall in love with you?" exclaimed Hinamori with a slight brush creeping up her cheeks.

"Stop shouting all the time, you're going to make me deaf… Listen, let me rephrase, I meant to say 'Let's PRETEND to fall in love with each other.'"

"Oh…" Hinamori was a little disappointed but she really couldn't say anything because this would be a better plan to be more…. realistic?

"So, we're going to spend the whole day together today…"

"No way, not with you at least," mumbled Hinamori

"Could you at least co-operate!"

"Well you're the one never ever co-operating with me you… you… BALD JERK!"

"BALD? DO YOU NEED NEW EYES OR SOMETHING MISS. UGLY?"

"EXCUSE ME? ME? LOOK WHOSE TALKING!"

"I find myself pretty attractive, unlike you."

"Narcissist."

"Say something?"

"NARCISSIST!"

"Enough is enough, so can you help me?"

"…. Fine. But isn't it bad if I just go in with you when everyone knows?"

"Which is why, we all go back to our rooms after lunch, then go out, alright?"

"Hm… Okay, why not?"

"You better not fail me."

"Oh by the way, could you start calling me by Momo?"

"Why?"

"I think in a way it's better to call people by their first names to show their closeness, right Toushiro? No wait, SHIRO-CHAN!" teased Hinamori poking his sides

"Stop it with that name!" They both started walking back to the restaurant still arguing about nicknames…. While…

"Wait so you guys know that it's all fake?" asked Ichigo

"Yeah, we tried telling her but she wouldn't listen," said Matsumoto

"We gotta tell Toushiro too, or else he's really going to break her heart," replied Ichigo

"But, what if feelings flutter during their fake relationship?" asked Orihime

"Love isn't that sweet on people dearie," replied Rukia patting Orihime's head

"What should we do then? It's not like we have a say in this or something," said Renji

"What if we go hiking all together and see their chemistry between them, like purposely put a log in front of hinamori's leg while Hinamori's not looking, make her purposely trip and see if he catches her?" suggested Hisagi

"I don't know if you call that a plan, or a mission to murder Hinamori," replied Yumichika

"What, unless you have a better plan?"

"I just don't want to go hiking, let's ask everyone whose here that wants to go hiking," said Yumichika

"Fine, people who want to go hiking say 'ai'."

No one raised his or her hands. Yumichika sneered and flicked his hair. Just then, the 'fake' couple came in hand in hand, Hinamori was laughing with a blush, while Hitsugaya just smiled and chuckled from time to time. The others could hear their conversation going something like this:

"Shiro-chan," teased Hinamori

"I'm telling you stop with that name!" said the irritated Hitsugaya

"Well, I think it's cute."

"That's what you think."

"So? Don't I have a say in this relationship?"

Hitsugaya pulled Hinamori closer and pulled her ear closer to his mouth so he could whisper something that the others couldn't hear. Hinamori nodded with a blush, and embraced him which obviously caught Hitsugaya by surprise.

"I love you," mumbled Hinamori loud enough for the others to hear

"Likewise," muttered Hitsugaya with a smile

The others were surprised, shocked and their hearts were wrenching at the cute-ness.

"God, they make a really good couple…" mumbled Rukia

"I know…" whispered Hisagi

Hinamori and Hitsugaya went to the table, the guys scooted one seat down as well as the girls and practically stared at them, while they were busy 'pretending' to be mesmerized by their eyes. Little did the others know that they were also busy kicking each other underneath the table, while a very innocent smile was plastered on their faces.

"SO… WHO WANTS TO GO HIKING?" asked Hisagi to break the awkwardness

"We already told you no one!" pointed out Renji

"Maybe not hiking, but we should check out some small hills that have small forests! It'll be nice, and the weather is nice as well!" suggested Hinamori

"SEE! Someone likes my idea!" said Hisagi

"Technically, it wasn't your idea but my girlfriend's," said Hitsugaya who got a glare from Kira.

"When should we go, walking or trekking or whatever," asked Ichigo

"After lunch," replied Hinamori who got a nod from the girls

"Let's order, I'm starving!" said Matsumoto who opened the menu and scanned the list. She was smiling while she was because she actually thought that Hitsugaya might really fall for Hinamori.

The others went back to their own rooms after lunch.

IN THE GIRL'S ROOM:

"What happened when you guys were outside?" asked Rukia changing her clothes to a more suitable clothing to go hiking in.
"Oh nothing really. Just stuff," replied Hinamori with a blush

"YOU'RE BLUSHING! Something must've happened!" said Matsumoto

"NoOO! Nothing! REALLY!"

"I heard you guys say I love you to each other though!" exclaimed Orihime

"OK fine, I'll tell you. We… actually might be going to a real relationship."

"Are you serious?"

"Guys, I know you guys are going to kill me for saying this… But I might be falling for him…" mumbled Hinamori and turned to face them, who just grinned at her.

"Then you know what this means," said Matsumoto
"Yeap, it's time to snatch Hitsugaya's heart," stated Rukia with Orihime nodding

"Oh… kay?" replied Hinamori, unsure if it was good or not…

WHILE IN ICHIGO's ROOM:

"Dude, what happened? Both of you suddenly made nicknames for each other?" asked Renji

"Long story short, I'm just going to tell you guys now, I might be seriously falling for her," stated Hitsugaya in a very serious tone

"Are you serious?" questioned Ichigo

"Yeah I am, she's just, like the sun," replied Hitsugaya, "Just like the sun? What the hell am I saying?"

"Well that's good, I guess you just need to know her feelings," said Ichigo

"I already do," mumbled Hitsugaya to himself

WHILE IN KIRA's ROOM:

"So… you like Hinamori?" asked Ikkaku out of the blue

"Yeah, well she's more like a little sister to me, but I'm starting to get weird feelings for her…" said Kira

"Hm… But what are you going to do? It's not like she'll suddenly break up with Hitsugaya," said Yumichika

"Yeah he's right," agreed Hisagi

"I'm going to kiss her," stated Kira

"K-K-KISS HER? ARE YOU CRAZY?" yelled Ikkaku

"What else can I do? I'm going to kiss her, and see her reaction," said Kira

"Look, I don't think that's a good idea," mumbled Hisagi
"I don't care what you guys think or not, I'm doing it…"

"Okay then, not my fault if you get beat up by Toushiro," muttered Yumichika

"Yeah, he is strong isn't he?" replied Hisagi

"GUYS! Look at my muscles," said Ikkaku flexing

"Just shut up," said Hisagi and threw a pillow at his face

"Okay guys, so I found a hill that has some beautiful scenery, we'll be going there right now alright?"

"Okay," replied everybody at once

"Off we go!"

"Heyhey, Hitsugaya-kun, I meant Toushiro, what are we going to do right now?" asked Hinamori

"Uh, walk together?" said Hitsugaya

"I know, but… ok you know what nevermind," said Hinamori, "I'll walk by myself."

"No you aren't," said Hitsugaya and grabbed her hand making Hinamori blush a thousand shades of red, "You're staying with me, and that's final."

"Which reminds me, when are you going to tell me that you're a soccer player? Did you really plan to keep that all to yourself?" asked Hinamori

"Good thing you brought it up, we will talk about that when we start hiking, which is now," replied Hitsugaya and everyone started walking up the hill engaged in their little conversations, well that is except Kira who just kept an eye on them.

"First, do you notice Kira's weird behavior?" asked Hitsugaya

"Nope, I don't. Why?" asked Hinamori

"He likes you," blurted Hitsugaya

"No he doesn't, seriously stop with those game of yours," replied Hinamori

"Fine, whatever, don't believe me," said Hitsugaya

"Anyways, you're a soccer player? Anything else?"

"I have many fan-girls… That's pretty much it."

"That's it? I know I'm just supposed to be your pretend girlfriend but for once could you like… make me know you better?" asked Hinamori

"What is there to know?"

"Like what kind of color you like, or pet, or I don't know something."

"Favorite color, turquoise or blue, favorite pet, I don't know…"

"WHAT? NO FAVORITE PET! When we get back let's find a cute little dog or something!"

"No way…" muttered Hitsugaya who let go of Hinamori's hand, which left a confused Hinamori looking at his actions. He kept looking from right to left, and at the end looked at Hinamori.

"Becareful where you walk," whispered Hitsugaya

"Yeah, yeah, whatever dad," said Hinamori, then as if it was all planned there was a log with moss on it, and was slippery. Hinamori, who didn't notice climbed onto that log only to slowly fall backwards, the others all looked at Hinamori who was about to fall. But then the hero comes in, Hitsugaya gets behind her, and holds her close as she was about to fall. She blushed like mad when she saw how close they were.

"Told you to watch your step, Miss. Clumsy," said Hitsugaya and held her close, "Hey Hisagi, Hinamori and I will take our leave, she seems to have a scab."

"Fine alright, see you guys," said Hisagi and waved them off. Then the group came into a huddle, "Guys, did you see that? We have to do something with this couple!" said Hisagi

"Well, Hitsugaya told us he really liked her," said Ichigo

"Hinamori told us she really liked him…" mumbled Matsumoto

"We gotta make them have their first REAL kiss, alright?" said Renji

"We'll let them be alone, while we can just go to the beach now," said Hisagi

"Alright, good plan," said Rukia

"You don't have to hold me you know and when did I ever get a scab?," said Hinamori

"Don't know just made that up, I have to hold you, you never know when you might fall," mumbled Hitsugaya

"Whatever. Hey is that Kira in front of us?" asked Hinamori noticed that Kira was already in front of the hotel.

"Hey guys!" waved Kira and walked over to them

"Hey, weren't you up there just now?" asked Hinamori

"I came down to check if you were okay," said Kira

"I'm fine, Toushiro helped me," said Hinamori and grinned

"Hey Momo, I'll get the emergency box, you stay here alright?" said Hitsugaya and left

"That's cruel to leave his girlfriend all by herself," said Kira

"No, it isn't. He really has a soft side," said Hinamori and smiled at the thought of that

"Hinamori-kun, I've been meaning to tell you this… But I love you, so just break up with Hitsugaya and be with me," confessed Kira and took her wrist, he gripped it so tightly that Hinamori couldn't help but wince.

"Kira-kun, I can't. I'm sorry!" said Hinamori, but before she could get up, Kira leaned in for a kiss, but Hinamori quickly looked away.

"Hinamori-kun look at me, just one kiss!"

"NO, IT'S DISGUSTING."

"Please! Hinamori-kun!"

"What are you doing to my girlfriend Kira?" asked Hitsugaya who was back with the first-aid kit.

"Kissing her, got a problem?" asked Kira

"No, but just to warn you. Kiss her, and I'll kill you," threatened Hitsugaya

"Kira-kun…. This isn't the best timing all right? I guess I'll just see you later, let's go Toushiro," said Hinamori and tugged on his sleeve. Toushiro leaned close to Kira's ear, and whispered, "You see, she chose me over you. Game over."

"Let's go, I'm hungry!" whined Hinamori and tugged his sleeve even harder

"Stop with the tugging, let's go piggy," said Hitsugaya and pushed her into the hotel.

"You messed with the wrong man Toushiro Hitsugaya," muttered Kira
