"Whoa!" One of the boys marveled looking at the marks on Toshiro's pale flesh.

The albino blushed bringing one of his palms to hide his neck from view. As he predicted he was now the talk of the school, he was a terribly awkward boy so the sudden attention was hard to deal with. Despite all that he kept meeting with Rangiku Matsumoto in the morning, he didn't stop her from marking his skin either.

They had a strange relationship to be quite honest. They hadn't even shared a proper kiss yet. Toshiro was so confused by all of this, he wasn't really sure what they really were suppose to be.

Now he was being praised by the other boys in his class while the girls found him disgusting. School let out everyday and everyday like clockwork she was waiting right outside the front gate. When this first started Toshiro would just ignore Rangiku. The blonde didn't let that slide without causing a scene.

Not wanting extra attention Toshiro started walking home with the highschool girl. All eyes were always on her, Rangiku was always the center of everyone's world. Toshiro had trouble trying to throw off that equilibrium.

"Look at that!" Rangiku shouted out loud on one of their walks home.

Toshiro lazily glanced over in the direction she was pointing. A tiny rainbow was arching off in the distance. Sure, it was pretty but was it really something to get so excited over. Rangiku seemed to think so because the next moment she was running in that direction.

Before he even knew it, Toshiro was running after the blonde.

The albino just followed her so naturally... Hadn't he been trying to ditch her this whole time?

So why?

Rangiku spun around to face him while running, her blonde hair billowing in the wind. She extended her arm out toward him offering her hand. A bright mischievous grin curved her face. Her blue hues sparkled as she called out to him, "Toshiro!"

He took her hand.
