My Abnormal Psych teacher is the best. College is awesome. (Especially when your paper deadline is extended for like three weeks.)

Diamond
Opening Song: "Diamonds" — Breathe Carolina
For Gin, Rangiku is a diamond in the rough. She is bright and beautiful, vibrant and strong. She has kept him together at the edges when he's threatened to fall apart. She is his constant, his rock.
He knows he doesn't deserve her.
Rangiku knows as well, he's sure, but she stays anyway. He makes her angry, breaks off their plans, randomly disappears without warning — but she's still here. Sometimes he pushes her away on purpose, not for manipulation's sake but because that's what Gin does. No matter what he does or how often he does it, though, Rangiku stays. She'll throw a tantrum and sometimes she'll go days (never more) not talking to him, but she doesn't leave. She deserves someone who will give her that same security that he knows he can never give her.
Still, the selfish part of him doesn't want to let her go. Maybe that's why he keeps coming back after he disappears, because he's selfish and he wants her even though he knows he can't have her. That's the terrible thing about being a teenager, he thinks, selfishness and greed.
Rangiku needs someone warm like her. Gin is cold, and she'll never be able to find full happiness with him. He holds on, hoping and wishing regardless.
He wants to be selfish for a little while longer.
Closing Song: "Pretty/Unpretty" — Glee Cast
I kept thinking of 'Diamonds' by Rhianna which sucks because that song is literally the devil. Literally. LITERALLY. On a brighter note, WE'RE ALMOST DONE GUYS.
