Author's Note:
I was so close to putting this off until tomorrow. I threatened to slap myself so that's why this is out. (And because you are all wonderful and I love you.) That being said, thank you to those who reviewed the last drabble: DragenEyez, EnternalSakura, ByakuyasMistress, Bullet2tm, pusaisme, and vibhalawliet. You're all wonderful!

Opening Song: "The Cave" - Mumford and Sons
The next time she sees him, she loses all train of thought and her body shuts down. It's nothing more than a glimpse, but it's enough to keep her rooted to her spot and still stir all the emotions she thought had died away. Everything around her stops — the people, the stores, the surroundings all blend in with each other — and it's just her and him. He's not wearing his smile, having replaced it with an unreadable line, when his eyes catch hers. He raises a hand, as if in greeting, and Rangiku has to blink to make sure he's actually there—
— and then he's gone.
Everything jumps back into movement, people race around her, the store lights flash, and she remembers where she is. She keeps looking at that spot (waiting, hoping, wishing) expecting him to be there.
As the world around her moves, she reminds herself that she can no longer remain static. So she walks.
