A.N- I sincerely apologize about my lateness. My only excuse is that I'm a lazy-ass. Well…better late than never right? But I would never discontinue. That would be like giving up. Something which disgusts me. Anywho…enjoy :)

Also a big THANK YOU to PM Sky Shiro-chan (a.k.a Tina Bay) and tokiluv
You guys are awesome! Seriously my mom was like ready to smack me with a gnome yesterday, cuz I bragged to her for two hours straight about my reviews :P

Summary: Their meeting was so coincidental and cliché that it was almost laughable, but what blossomed from that was so much more. The kind of love that can only be described as...Destiny.

HITSUGAYA'S P.O.V

'Toshiro, hurry up and eat your breakfast or you'll be late!' My grandmother chastised me as I sat playing around with my cornflakes. I still didn't trust it after those dreams, even though I knew Hinamori wasn't a stalker.

God! I felt like such a jerk yesterday.

I'll apologize to her today. I hope she isn't too mad.

I especially felt crummy when Rangiku demanded to know why I didn't come the other day only to brush it aside and tell me she's getting married. THEN she asked me to be Gin's best man.
I didn't feel like I deserved it but I said yes anyway. Man! I have to apologize fast if I want some peace of mind.

I gulped down the rest of my cornflakes and grunted to my grandmother and uncle Juushirou as way of farewell.

When I got to school I saw no sign of Hinamori.
(A.N-Hinamori's locker is right across from Hitsugaya's…for future reference :P) I sighed.

Guess I'll have to wait a little longer.

My classes were boring, especially Maths. Usually it's not that boring, it's just Sasakibe is the most uninteresting person you could ever find.
Hinamori was in my Maths class, so I sent her a note asking if I could talk to her after class. When she read the note she turned around, smiled at me and nodded. She looked a little confused.

Huh? That was weird. I thought she was mad at me. Maybe she was being sarcastic, in that case, she's furious.

After class I met her at her locker. She smiled at me and said, 'What did you want to talk about Hitsugaya-kun?

I have no idea why she's being so polite to me, but I carry on cautiously and say, 'I want to apologize. ' She gives me this confused look, 'What for?'

Now I am really confused. Is she messing with me?
But I labored on nonetheless, 'for yesterday? You were really mad at me. I wanted to apologize for being so rude to you.'

She's still giving me this funny look, 'Oh! I forgot all about that! It's alright Hitsugaya-kun.'

Sh-She forgot!

'I'm not one to hold grudges'.'
Just to be sure I say, 'So we're good?'
'Yeah we're good,' she said and flashes me a smile.
I never noticed before, but she has a really pretty smile.
'Well I'm glad that's resolved. So I'll see you later Hitsugaya-kun?' she slowly backs away still looking at me. I give her a small smile, just a tiny one, barely noticeable, 'Yeah I'll see you later Hinamori.'

With that she turned around and walked away leaving me in the hallway, numbly staring at her retreating back.

I cannot believe she forgot! There must be something wrong with her. One minute she's biting my head off and the next minute she's smiling and asking if she'll see me later?!
I just shook my head trying and failing to understand.

(Later in Hitsugaya's free period)…..Talking to Renji

'So I apologized to Hinamori today.' I told Abarai
'Yeah…how did that go?'

'She forgot all about it.' I told him bluntly. He stared at me, then he chuckled, 'that's Momo for you. She can't hold a grudge to save her life.
'What about the 'completely forgetting' part of it?' I asked.

Renji shrugged. 'Whenever she fights with someone she claims 'supposed amnesia' and the closer she is to someone, the worse the case. But I've known her long enough to know that it's absolutely genuine. She remembers what happened, it's just, she gets over it really quickly.'
Abarai shrugged again. I nod and just marvel over this girl.

She's so weird
'But you shouldn't have made her mad in the first place,' came a stern rebuke from Abarai.
I should have seen it coming; he was her friend after all.

'She's got enough problems without having to deal with you too.'
Now I feel really guilty,' She's got problems at home?'
'Not exactly,' He replied.
I just left it at that, not wanting to pry into Hinamori's life.

MOMO'S P.O.V

Gah! Science is sooo boring! I can't even sleep because Kurotsuchi will use you as a test subject without your consent. I don't know what he's saying. He's going on about something to do with a science fair or something. I don't really care anyway.

My mind started to drift and so did my eyes. I caught a familiar flash of white. Hitsugaya-kun. He apologized to me today after Maths.

It's funny, I remember being really mad at him but now I have no idea why. Well it can't have been that important if I can't remember, right?

'Hitsugaya.T, Hinamori.M!' I heard the teacher call. Wait.

What? What's going on? Is he taking roll call?

I look around me confused. I get a bit of a surprise; there are a good many people (all girls) glaring at me.

Why are they glaring at me? Did I do something wrong?

' Please meet with your assigned partners now and exchange the necessary contact details.' At this, girls were practically burning holes into the back of my head with their glares.
'Nemu, hand out the rule booklets.'
The efficient teacher's assistant quickly did as she was told. I don't blame her. I would probably be like that too if I was Kurotsuchi's assistant.

What did he say now? I remember him saying Hitsugaya before he said my name…. Does that mean that we're…. partners? Well that will explain all the glares.

I turn around to see what Hitsugaya-kun was doing only to see him staring back at me. When he noticed me looking, he quickly ducked his head as if embarrassed

Why would he be embarrassed? Strange… Well I may as well do what the teacher said.

I got up to go and sit in the newly-vacated seat next to Hitsugaya-kun.
'What's going on?' I asked him seeing as I had no clue, maybe he did.
He smirked at me, 'I take it you weren't listening?'
I shook my head and looked at him expectantly.
He sighed, 'There's a science expo coming up and since we're the top class we're all expected to participate. So Kurotsuchi is making it part of our grade.'
My eyes flash with anger, 'but that's so unfair!' I complain
Hitsugaya-kun just said, 'Hey don't tell me. I can't do anything. If you're really unhappy then you can ask Kurotsuchi.' He raised an eyebrow at me.
I looked at Kurotsuchi, who was busy poking his lab rat with a weird coloured stick . 'Um…no thanks' I reply nervously.

I got out a pen to write down my contact details. 'So is there any theme or particular section we have to use?' I asked, still trying to get answers. I didn't notice the mischievous look on his face when he replied, 'Yeah, it's rockets.' I stopped what I was doing and looked up at him with wide eyes, 'Really?!' I ask.
'Nope.' said Hitsugaya with and even bigger smirk than before, 'You're just too gullible. I had to do that.'
I pout at him, ' *Mou Hitsugaya-kun, stop teasing me!' I hand him the piece of paper with all my contact details.
'Here's my house number, cell number and email address.' I told him as I handed it to him.

He hastily scribbled down his numbers and handed it to me but while I was taking the piece of paper, he held onto it, and he said with this really serious expression on his face,' The theme is food, exercise and health in general.'
I smiled at him and slipped the paper out of his hand, 'Thank you, Hitsugaya-kun.'

A.N- Well, I hope you liked it. Review and tell me what you think.
Again, I apologize for the lateness. I promise I'll make up for it!
