Marrying The Wrong Girl

Chapter Nine

Info you need to know: "Talking" Thinking
Translations: Gomen = Sorry.

Recap: "Is Hinamori seriously that stupid?" Toushiro muttered under his breath as he walked back from the sparring hall, it had been an eventful day for Toushiro. First he finds out about Hinamori's health problem and next he finds out that Hinamori thinks he is in love with Matsumoto!

"Honestly." Toushiro Grumbled, usually Toushiro would be happy from a day of training but today when he found out Hinamori thought he liked Matsumoto; it put him in a bad mood, especially when Matsumoto didn't tell Hinamori the truth. Now he would have to tell her. And that was where he was heading to Hinamori's room.

When he reached the big painted brown doors, he found him hesitating to open or even knock on the door. What was he afraid of? Toushiro didn't know. Forcing the courage out of him he knocked on the door. *knock knock* he waited, no response. He tried one more time *knock knock* still no response, taking it as a sign that she wasn't in her room he left and went to his own room.

Reaching his quarters, he flopped on his bed, closing his turquoise eyes he breathed a sigh, how is it that I can tell her? That I don't like Matsumoto but her? How would she react? I'm an engaged man. An unhappy engaged man. Toushiro thought.
Deciding it was time to get up he rose up from his bed, and walked tiredly to the bathroom. Hinamori Momo makes you feel that way. Tired and exhausted. She's a real piece of work.


~ The next day ~


Momo woke up to the sun shining on her face and the noise of birds tweeting outside her window. She moaned, inwardly complaining about the sun and flung the cover over her head to get away from it. A few moments later she threw the cover off her for she had gotten too hot under the covers. She sighed knowing it was time to wake up, so grudgingly she got up, headed to the bathroom to start preparing for her day.

A little while later she was presentable and in what she would call a 'summer' Yukata, basically it had a flowery pattern. Checking in the mirror once more to see if she looked at least somewhat respectable she nodded satisfactorily to her mirror reflection and headed downstairs for breakfast.

She stopped when she reached the bottom of the stairs. It just occurred to her what happened yesterday, Toshiro found out her secret and Matsumoto found out that Toshiro was in love with her. To say it had been a somewhat eventful day would be a big understatement. She took a deep breath and decided to act like she did every day, cheerfully, smiling and friendly.

When she entered the room only half the table was occupied. The half which was closest to the Prince and Princess. Momo took her seat next to Toshiro (but not right next to him, that was Karin's seat) and she smiled and greeted her friends, Matsumoto, Rukia, Ichigo, Renji and of course Toshiro.

If Momo had doubted whether Toshiro would keep her disorder a secret then she no longer doubted him one bit. No-one looked at her differently (including Toshiro) and they didn't mention anything which could be secretly talking about her disorder. All in all it was a normal day and Momo was glad about that.

Though when the time came for Momo to excuse herself it wasn't so normal. Her friends of course let her leave without question because they had been accustomed to it. The only thing that changed was when Momo got into the girls' bathroom and started throwing up, Toshiro was right behind her. Holding her hair back for her and rubbing her back soothingly. That was definitely not normal. But Momo would be lying if she said she didn't like it. It felt nice to have someone there for her.

But when Momo finished throwing up, she thanked Toshiro and then promptly left. She liked Toshiro being there for her but she knew she couldn't get too close to him or too attached. After all he was in love with Matsumoto. She found it hard to be around him knowing that. Though she didn't know why. She shouldn't care how Toshiro loved but for some reason she did. She cared deeply.

So now Momo was just wandering around the castle, her friends had gone into town and she had declined there offer to accompany them. Momo ran her hand along the wall as she walked. She was bored and alone. Not the greatest of combinations.

She sighed and then looked ahead of her instead of the right. Her feet stopped moving and so did her hand against the wall. Her chocolate brown eyes met teal green ones and while her body was frozen her mind was screaming 'move, dammit girl, move!'.

Toshiro was frozen too but he didn't know why. He frowned moments later, he had been walking and thinking and his thoughts had wandered to Momo. He couldn't help but feel she was off with him. Maybe even avoiding him. But why? He was sure he hadn't done anything to upset her and if he had then he would find a way to make it up to her. He didn't like Momo avoiding him. It hurt, a lot.

Momo nodded to him and then turned around in the other direction and walked swiftly away. Now scowling Toshiro walked after her calling her name but she ignored him and kept on walking. Toshiro grew frustrated so he quickened his pace.

He caught up to her moments later but she wouldn't slow down he spun her around but she merely walked away from him backwards. Then he smirked as he looked ahead. She saw that and frowned wondering what he was smirking about. She then felt something solid hit her back and she gulped as she realised it was a wall. She was cornered.

"Are you avoiding me, Hinamori-san?" Toshiro asked, Momo's back was up right against the wall and there was still a large gap between them. Toshiro took a small step forward and Momo's mind rushed to find an escape.

"O-of c-course not, Hitsugaya-kun." Momo replied and mentally cursed herself for stammering and for her voice sounding like a mouse's squeak.

"Then why did I have to corner you in order to get your attention and have a conversation?" Toshiro asked and took another small step towards her.

"I didn't know you wanted to talk, Hitsugaya-kun. You didn't say anything to me so I was just going to head back to my room to collect a book to read." Momo said, thankful that she wasn't stammering and her voice was slowly going back to her normal pitch.

"That's nonsense; I was following you and calling your name." Toshiro said and took another step towards her, this time a bigger one. He was closer now, close enough that she had to crane her neck up ever so slightly to look in his eyes. His beautiful, mesmerizing eyes – Whoa, stop right there, Momo! Momo mentally scolded herself, she couldn't think like that. It was inappropriate.

"Gomen, I didn't hear you." Momo whispered her lie. Toshiro narrowed his eyes at her. He took another step towards her and now they were literally inches apart.

"Hinamori-san, why do you think I'm in love with Matsumoto?" Toshiro whispered, his eyes locked on hers. She was shocked by that, of course she had no clue what he was going to say but for some reason she hadn't expected that.

"Well, that night in the garden. When you said you didn't love Karin but someone else. You said that you thought you were falling for another woman someone that I knew and the only person that you and I both know and that you associate with is Matsumoto. So I figured it out, I'm sorry I blurted it to Matsumoto but I thought she should know." Momo said starting to blabber because she was nervous.

Toshiro looked at her like she was mental. He shook his head slightly at how silly the woman before him could be sometimes but nevertheless he would set her straight. He moved his hand up to her face and tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear. His hand stayed there and his thumb gently stroked her cheek.

"You're so stupid sometimes. Matsumoto wasn't the woman I was talking about." Toshiro murmured and he leaned in ever so slightly.

"Then who?" Momo whispered back, her eyes locked on his lips which were now coming closer to hers. She felt her heart beat rise and a flush come to her cheeks. She felt excited yet nervous, half of her wanted to stay and the other half wanted her to run away. But she kept her ground, the curiosity of who the Ice Prince liked taking over her, so much so that she felt like she must know.

"I like you, Momo-chan." Toshiro murmured and before she could respond Toshiro closed the minuscule gap between them so that her lips were otherwise occupied. Momo's eyes widened at the fact that Toshiro Hitsugaya, the Ice Prince was kissing her!

A few seconds later though she closed her eyes and melted. Her lips moving in synch with his and for a few moments the two of them were in pure euphoria. They were in their own little bubble. In their own little world and for a few moments nothing was wrong. Everything was just right and felt right.

They were too wrapped up in their own world that neither of them noticed the person hiding nearby. Lurking in the shadows a person's eyes widened as she saw Toshiro kiss Momo! How dare Momo steal her man. The person was of course Karin; the one Toshiro (in her mind only) loved and was going to marry soon.

She somehow kept in her scream and managed not to throw a tantrum. Though she very much wanted to. She just witnessed her fiancée saying he liked Momo and then to top it off he kissed her. But the worst part was that Toshiro had never kissed Karin like that before and that hurt. Boy, did it hurt. But of course this was Karin so she took her hurt, turned it into to anger and hatred for Momo and then plotted her revenge.

Momo Hinamori, you're going to pay for touching my man! Not to mention learn that if I can't have Toshiro-kun then no-one can! Karin thought viscously to herself and then she stalked away. Toshiro and Momo still hadn't noticed her and she kept it that way. For now.

Karin smirked evilly as she sort out her friends. She was mad and full of hatred towards Momo. Not a good combination at all. She was going to get her revenge on Momo Hinamori if it was the last thing she did. Karin smiled again, getting her revenge was going to be the last thing. For Momo that was.
