Trust Thy Heart

*Beep beep! Beep beep!* Rukia flipped open her cell phone, well, the hollow looked weak enough, she decided not to bother wakeing Ichigo, after all why wake the sleeping dragon right? So she hopped out of the closet and headed to the window, popping a Soul Candy in her mouth and comanding Chappy to go to sleep before jumping out the window and heading towards the hollow,
Ichigo woke up slowly, there was a draft, he slid out of bed to shut the window and, wile he was up, decided to check on Rukia, he had a feeling that he needed to, so he creeked open the closet door, and to his surprise (and delieght) there lay Rukia, sleeping sweetly in her makeshift bed, something seemed wrong though, but he couldn't help but smile at the image, after all this was a rare sight, here was the tough and rough Rukia Kuchiki curled up in a ball, sleeping like an angel, he grinned, if he only had a camara... ohhh the black mail! Although his smile faded wen the Soul Reaper's bright amythist eyes fluttered open and an unusually large grin spread across her face, she leaped up, "Spying Stwabewwy Pyon!" the mod soul sqweaked, "Oh you're Chappy! Were's Rukia?!" "Went to fight hollow, Pyon!" Ichigo maneged to claw the little pyon-ing thing away from him long enough to leap out of the window, searching for this midget would be a real pain and you better bet she was getting a real good tounge-lashing as soon as they got home!
Blood trickled down Rukia's arm, the hollow had gotten in a lucky shot, her radar said there was only one hollow but there were actually TWO, and ofcourse she was looking at getting yelled at by Ichigo the very second she entered the room, perhaps she could delay the royal lecture if- "RUKIA!" she breathed an exasperated sigh, he had woken up, he had come after her, he had gotten VERY mad, how very lovely, she felt his hand slip over her shoulder (not the injured one though) and sqeezed it tightly, "Let's go," she could tell that he was saying it through clenched teeth, his tone was very angered, she started to wounder just HOW mad she had gotten him, but guessed that she would find out soon enough
"How STUPID can you be?!" Rukia sighed, watching Ichigo pace around the room, "Wat do I keep TELLING you abuot fighting alone you little twit?!!" She really wasn't paying much attention, "HELLO!? Are you going to answer me?!" "I didn't think you wanted an answer to a rhetorical question," "You weren't even listening!" "Oh? I suppose I missed something, wat did you ask?" she could see Ichigo becomeing more and more annoyed by the second, his eye was twitching and the big vein in the middle of his forehead was throbbing and bigger than she had ever seen it, Ichigo neeled down on the floor and rolled up Rukia's sleve, "I asked if you even HAVE a conciouse," he mumbeled, cleaning the blood from her arm (and not bothering to be gentle like he normally would) "Wat do you mean?" she asked, the question takeing her by surprise, "I mean, don't you no how torn up I get wen you make me worry like this?" "Ichigo," Rukia winced, "Am I wrapping it too tight?" "Y- yeah, a bit," "Good, you deserve it," Rukia glared at him, although, it wasn't that bad,
They sat there for a few moments, neither tired enough to go to sleep, "You're too overprotective," Rukia stated dully, Ichigo looked at her, surprise written on his face, "I can take care of myself you no," Ichigo glared at her, "Then wat do you call this?" he sqeezed her arm and she winced, "It's just a scratch," he sqeezed her again, she winced again, "Stop doing that! You're hurting me Moron!" "Then it isn't just a scratch now is it?!" She bit her lip, he was just being mean now! "Why are you acting so obnoxiouse all of a sudden?!" she spat, "Because you made me worry! You're SO inconsederate sometimes!" "Inconsederate?!" "Yeah! You never think about how YOUR actions affect ME!" "That's bull! I think the vein is speaking now!" "Really?! You didn't seem to think about how much it would hurt me the night you left and were taken! And the VEIN wasn't too happy about THAT either!" "That was a long time ago!" "And you STILL don't think about me! I bet you didn't ONCE think about how much it would hurt me wen you screamed at me to go away! All those days locked in that tower did you ever ONCE consider that?! And don't even TRY lieing because you're a terrible lier!" she was silent, "Did you ever think about how scared I was?!" "Ofcourse I did! Wat a stupid question!" "Scared for YOU Moron! Did you ever think about how terrified I was that I was going to run out of time and loose you?! Huh?! I'm waiting for your snarky answer Rukia! Don't tell me that you've finally run out of things to say!" He was geneinly angry now, not just angry because of her fighting on her own, or ignoring him, but he was angry because she obviously didn't comprehend her importance to him, "You complain that I didn't think about your feelings?" her tone was low and dark and just above a wisper, "You think that I really didn't no you'd be comeing after me?" her tone was riseing, "Or that I would jump into your arms like some fairy tale princess and beg you to save me?! Do you really think I would want you there?! I always say that Soul Society is a wounderfull place and for most it really is, but for others it's like a torture chamber! I should no! I've been on both sides of the line! Do you really think I didn't consider how badly I was hurting your feelings?! Wat about MY feelings?! I new you were comeing I just hoped against it! I couldn't die peacefully with your death hanging over me! One was enough! Two was unbearable! You talk about ME being inconsideret, YOU'RE the one who's being inconsiderete! Did YOU ever think about MY feelings?! You said that you were worried that I was going to die! Well if that DID happen didn't you ever think about my inability to rest in peace with your death hanging over me?! Don't you ever THINK?! You're such a JERK! Don't you understand how crossed I was?!" she paused, tears begining to cloud her eyes, "You just don't understand, I wanted more than anything to be with you and no that everything was ok, but I new that I couldn't do that, I just, I just wanted your safety that's all, and I only wanted to be away from you so that you would be ok, don't you get it?" "Then why do you keep doing this to me? If you realize how much it hurts to see you in danger then why don't you let me protect you?" "For the exact same reason, I want to protect you too, and I want to be equal to you, Idiot, you can't possibly understand,"
There was a long pause, "Ichigo, I want you to be safe, I want you to have a better life, and so, I guess wat I'm trying to say is that, I'm causeing too much trouble, I need to leave," but before she could say anything else Ichigo's lips were crushing her's, at first it felt like he was pressing too hard, that he just wanted to shut her up, but after only a second, he seemed to lighten his hold, makeing the kiss less demanding and more pleading, it became very soft and he eventually pulled away from the stunned girl, leaving her laying across his bed, "Why.... did you do that?" "How else could I shut you up? Wat was I gonna do? Slap you or something?" "...You could've," "I wouldn't," "Ichigo listen to me, I don't-" wat was she going to say? 'I didn't enjoy that'? Lie, 'I don't want to have that relationship with you'? Bigger lie, 'Don't kiss me'? Yeah right, 'I don't love you'? That one would make a lie detector go berserk, "You don't wat?" "...I don't no," she sqweaked, "Rukia listen to me, I love-" "Stop, don't say it, please, don't say that, my heart can't take it," "Rukia, I love you," and that was that, the final string snapped, she couldn't take it anymore, and she started crying, "I told you not to say it," "I wish you felt the same way, Rukia," "I DO you fool!" "Then wat's the problum!?" "I don't.... deserve you, I shouldn't-" but she was cut off again, he was holding her hands tightly in his, her lips being pressed shut by his, her eyes lingered on his orange hair for a moment, and they finally slid shut, "Listen to me Rukia, if you are good enough to make my heart go all jumpy, and to fall in love with, then don't you think that's good enough?" "...I don't no," "Well guess wat? I DO no, and I say it is MORE than good enough," "...ok," "Well, it's good that you finally understand," "Ichigo?" "Yeah?" "By the way, I love you too,"

The First Frost

'"Ichigo! Ichigo! Help! Help me! Please! Ichigo!!! Please, help me, Ichigo," Rukia's voice rang loudly, before quiteing down, she stopped struggling against the black ribbions that pulled her away, "Rukia! Rukia! RUKIA!" Ichigo yelled after the fading girl, for he was bound by chains, and unable to reach her, the blackness quickly pulled Rukia away, but not before Ichigo saw a singal tear run down her gentle cheek, and as she became a memory, that singal tear dropped to the ground, *splash,* it went, it was a soundless thing, and yet to him, it sounded like a building crashing down around him, 'I couldn't save her, I couldn't stop that tear, I couldn't, I couldn't, and she gave up, she just, let it happen, and there was nothing I could do!' Ichigo thought, tears begining to stream from his amber eyes, as the chains tightened around him, then let go completely, he fell to his nees, "Why, Rukia? Why did you give up? Why did you let them have you?" he choked, now beging to go into hystariea, "Why?! Why, RUKIA!?!!!"' Ichigo woke up, he could feel that his skin was cold, just feel it, "Was'the'matta?" Rukia yawned slowly pulling aside the closet door, "Nothing, go back to sleep," she shrugged and closed the door, "And please, don't cry anymore," Ichigo wispered, she didn't hear him, and he new that she wouldn't, but he said it anyway, wat a frightening dream it had been, he looked over to his window, it was pretty foggy, it was, after all, only 20 degrees outside, and in the closet... Rukia wasn't asleep, she was too deep in thought to sleep, thinking about the day, Ichigo had taken her skateing, she had never been skating before, or rather, she had never been Roller Skating before, needless to say she wasn't a natural at it, but wen she saw the frozen pound, 'Ichigo? Let's skate on the pound,' 'You wanna go ice skating? Ok, but it's alot harder than this,' but not for Rukia it wasn't, she actually was pretty good at ice skating, it had been a pretty good day, no hollows even, so then, why would Ichigo have a nightmare? But this, not even Ichigo himself could answer,
The next day, Ichigo woke up to music playing, he opened his eyes and looked over at Rukia, who was fully clothed and currently hanging a small radio upside down, and shaking it, "Wat're ya' doin'?" he asked, just waiting for the amusing explination that was sure to come, "This thing plays music," she stated, "Yes, I no," "How?" "Don't ask, it's called a 'radio' why did you turn it on if you didn't no wat it did?" "Because, I wanted to see wat it did," "How did you no it wouldn't electricute you, or a little door wouldn't open and a little viciouse creature pops out?" "I didn't, I assumed it," "Never assume anything, you can guess, but never assume," "Why?" "Bad luck," she nodded, "Wat's the song playing now?" "Hana Kagari," "Flower Bonfire," "You speak Jappenesse?" "Kind of," "Wat's Soul Reaper in Jappenesse?" "Shinigami," "Wat about, Idiot," "Baka," "And enemy?" "Teki," "Wat about-" "I'm not a dictionary! Wen you actually need to no wat something means, then you ask me, Baka!" "Nice goin'," "I'm aware," Ichigo rolled his eyes, Rukia walked over to the window, Ichigo took this oppertunity to change, she looked out and saw Orahime walking down the street, Rukia opened the window, "Hey!" she said, Orihime looked up, "Hey Rukia!" Orihime also spoke Jappenese, "Doshda ue?" "Doshde orera houjin?" "Watashiwa tikimase ketsubou Baka tame hia," " Sokene, doshdano?" "Eo, watashiwa ketsubou Baka tame hai senpou baka," "Oh, adyu," "Adyu," Rukia closed the window after waving goodbye to Orihime, (by the way, the conversation was: "Wat's up?" "Why are we speaking Japanesse?" "I don't want the idiot to hear us," "Is that so, Wat's wrong?" "Oh, it's ok! I want the idiot to think he's crazy," "Oh, well then, goodbye," "Goodbye,") "Why did you do that?" Ichigo asked her, "I want you to learn Jappanesse," "Watever," Rukia walked over to him, "You no something?" "Wat?" "If it came down to it, you'd be stuburn to the end, wouldn't you?" "Well yeah, but were did that come from?" Rukia grabbed Ichigo and embraced him tightly, "Nowere, just asking," "Ok," he put his arms around her, "Wat's the matter?" he asked, "Nothing, I just felt like this," "Ok," he stroked her hair, lightly pushing her head a little more into him, Rukia closed her eyes, "You're acting kinda weird today, you sure everythings alright?" "Yeah, I'm sure,"
'The next day, Rukia transformed into a Soul Reaper and jumped out of Ichigo's window, destroying the hollow with the flick of her rist, "Rukia, it's all ready over?" Ichigo asked, "Yeah, pretty easy," "I see, so then there was no need for me to transform and follow you, is that right?" "That's right," Rukia's eyes got wide, "Ichigo! Watch out," Rukia jumped in front of him, taking a direct hit from the hollow, but still maneging to get rid of the beast, she fell slowly, into Ichigo's arms, it seemed that the fall lasted a centurary, for Ichigo, "Rukia? Rukia? Are you ok? Rukia?" he was begining to sob now, Rukia's violet eyes fluttered open slowly, she smiled, "You're alive, I'm so happy," she stroked his chest softly, "Ichigo, thank you for everything," "No, don't do this! Don't give into this!" "Ichigo, goodbye," she closed her eyes as they began to deaden, and her soft hand slipped from his chest, "Rukia? Why can't I ever protect you? Why? Why am I not aloud to protect you? Rukia? Why?" this time he didn't yell her name, but only wispered it to himself, "Rukia," the mere sound of her name reflected her beauty, and reflected her true self, but now, no one would say that name, the sylabals rang in his head for the last time, as he hung his head, and flooded the streets with tears,' Ichigo woke up sartled, 'How many times am I going to have such awful nightmares?' the sun was already up, and so was Rukia, "I'm the first up again I see," she said getting out of the closet, "Rukia," "Yeah?" "Nothing, I just wanted to say it," "And you said I was acting weird, is something wrong?" "No," Rukia crossed over to him, with a "Wat is with you?" kind of look on her face, suddenly her Soul Phone rang, she rolled her eyes and transformed into a Soul Reaper, she jumped out the window to tail the hollow and Ichigo went after her, wen they came across the creature Rukia said, "I've got this one," Ichigo jumped up slayed the creature in one swing, wen he landed Rukia jumped up and slapped him on the back of the head, "Ow," "You Bonehead! I said I had that one!" "I was trying to protect you!" "From wat?! I was in no danger!" "Everytime we come across one of these things there's always danger!" "I no that! It's our job, Idiot!" "I no that! I just wanted to protect you!" Rukia's eyes softened, she stepped a little closer to him, she stood up on her tip-toes so that she could reach him, she put her hand to his head and then to her owne, "Your head's hot, do you have a fever?" "No," Rukia touched his head again, Ichigo lightly grabbed her rist, and slowly pulled it down, he jerked on it lightly, pulling her into an embrace, "Ichigo, wat's the matter? Is something wrong?" "Everything is fine, I just wanted to prove to myself that I could protect you," "Ichigo, you've protected me loads of times, wat are you talking about?" Ichigo picked her up and jumped into his window, he set Rukia down on the bed, and sat next to her, "Ichigo," "I no I've been acting strange, but, I've felt like I couldn't protect you lately," "Why is that?" "I guess, because the last two nights, I've been having nightmares," "About me dieing?" "Yes, I don't really understand why I've been having these dreams, but, I have," Rukia's Soul Phone rang again, "I won't answer it, let someone else take care of it," "No, go ahead," Rukia lifted the phone out of her pocket and read the signal, "It's right outside," she stated, leaping out of the window, Ichigo looked down for a moment, before rushing after her, she leaped up to strike at the hollow, but it slammed her against the wall, "Rukia!" she got up, blood trickling down the side of her face, she ran at the beast and took off one of it's arms, it roared in pain as she jumped up and struck down the hollow, she resheathed her sword, "Are you ok?" Ichigo asked as she walked over to him, the pair jumped up in the window, and returned to their positions on the bed, "You were saying?" "I was saying, that I need to fix that wound," Rukia rolled her eyes as he worked at the cut on her forehead, "Honestly, wat were you saying," "I was saying that, I must be in love with you, because I've never felt this way about anyone else, I've never wanted to protect anyone else as much as I want to protect you, so, wat do you say? Do I sound like an idiot?" "This should answer your question," she leaned over and kissed him lightly on the lips, he pulled her closer, and the kiss deepened, and became more passionate, wen they broke apart for air, they still remained close enough for their heads to touch, "So do you love me?" "Yes, you little fool, I love you," those words rang sweetly as they graced her lips, "I'll make a wish on this cherry blossum bonfire, that you'll tell me you won't leave me alone, that this warmth in my hand, is not a dream," Rukia said softly, they were some of the lyrics to "Hana Kaggari" Ichigo gripped her hand, "I won't leave you alone," he said, "and this is defenitly not a dream," Rukia leaned her head on his shoulder and gazed towards the window, "Look at that," she said, "the first frost,"

Wake Me Up

He carried her home and put her down on his bed, she must be tired, it was a long day of fighting hollows, she must be worn out, she was so small, her beautifull features suddenly seemed to strike a cord in his mind, she suddenly appeared to be more than an annoying Soul Reaper who lived in his closet and tried without effort to draw "masterpeices" with her sketch board and his stol- I mean "borrowed" coulering utinsels, after all, if she were less tired, and if HE were less tired, right now they would be arguing about nothing, weather it was her obsession with all things cute and fuzzy (primarely bunnies) or his never-disapearing scowl, or her lack of drawing skills, or his recklessness, or anything else they could find, even if it was as stupid as her inability to open juice boxes or his throwing her off of a larger~than~life scafold, were she could easily have been thrown into a tree, bcause if they weren't arguing, things felt strange, things felt.. wrong, because arguing, to them, was comuncating, comunicating things that would never be said, things that would never be heard, because they developed their owne languege, that was coded, and coded untill it was even difficult for them to understand, it was a sacred languege that no one else understood, no one else wanted to, because it was a languege that was pained and destroyed and broken, it was full of unspoken hurt, unthinkable sadness, and unheard of love, but it was full of unthought of hate and distruction, but still, it belonged to them, and that's all that mattered, it was their's and no one else's, and that's all that mattered, but they new that sooner or later, they would have to make alternations, invent new words, expressions, and even new emotions, they new that they couldn't always continue this timeless game, that someday, it would be time to decide a winner, and start a new game, but they just hoped it would be later
"Ichigo! There's the hollow!" Rukia directed, pointing towards the beast, "I'm on it!" he leapt into the air but the hollow shot behind him and shot a bullet through his arm before he could turn around, he landed on one nee, clutching his upper arm, "Ichigo!" Rukia swung her sword down on the hollow and rushed towards the injured Soul Reaper, "G- Get outta here! Go! Get away! Hurry!" every word was strained, "I- Ichigo, wat are you saying?" "Get away! Leave now!" "Ichigo! Wat are talking about?! Like I would honestly leave you here! Ichigo-" "Ichigo? Oh, he's away right now, leave a message and maybe he'll get back to you," the voice wasn't Ichigo's, it was his hollow's, "But I gotta give 'em credit for keeping me at bay this long, the results are supposed to be instintaniouse, and you, I gotta give you credit too, you new wat was happening but you didn't run away, you saw the mask forming and you didn't even flinch, you must have some gut to be able to take that," "Wat do you mean 'instentaniouse results'?" "That bullet that shot Ichigo's arm, it had a poision in it that draws out the inner hollow in a Soul Reaper, the results are supposed to be instintaniouse," "How do you no that every Soul Reaper has an inner hollow?" "Oh they do, every one of them, Soul Reapers are born with undeveloped inner hollows that lay dormant, but wen hollowfication draws out the beast in them, the hollows take control and are no longer dormant, you see, even you have one, even you, the purest being in Soul Society, have an inner hollow, because you are a Soul Reaper," "Wat makes them dormant?" "You don't seem surprised, oh well, anyway, you see, wen a Soul Reaper is created, the matter that makes up a soul is rearranged, strenthed, but certain parts are tossed aside, certain weaknesses are unused, these weaknesses form a hollow, but most hollows, even ones as developed as me, stay dormant, they rather not fight, they're too lazy, unless the soul's life is threatened, but the hollows of weak Soul Reapers are also weak, thay can't bring themselves to break through that line and take over, it's too difficult, but then, there are the hollows of strong Soul Reapers, me, and your inner hollow, you see, the two of us are still lazy, but there is something that will bring us out no matter wat, even if we decide to stay dormant and not bother anymore, there is something that brings us out," "And wat's that?" "It's a special spirit partical combination that strong hollows have, it contains a very powerfull scent, and we have that enter our systum, it's like giving cat nip to a cat, we can't control ourselves, but very few hollows are able to condense this into pure particals, but it's easier to keep your hollow dormant because you're so pure, but Ichigo, he isn't like that, even his Zanpokto is made of a certain darkness, that brings me out more, well, enough explination, I wounder wat Ichigo would think wen he found the woman he loved dead and his sword covered in her blood, let's find out, shall we?"
"I won't fight you," "Then this'll be easy," "But I won't surrender either," "Oh? Then wat will you do?" "Hmph, I understand one thing," "And wat's that?" "Ichigo no's a cry for help wen hears one," "Wat do you-" but before the hollow could finish his question, Rukia kissed him lightly on the lips, "Ichigo, please hear me," she mumbeled against his lips, "Please wake up," the hollow's mask disapeared, 'Rukia,' he thought, closing his mouth around her warm lips, he motioned to continue the kiss, and it suddenly became less gentle, this was no longer a kiss to wake him up and bring him back, now it was a long awaited moment of passion, it was now about adding a new link to the ever growing chain that their secret languege rested on, it was about expressing feelings without words or voices, it was about washing the moment pure and clean and untainted, and as far as they were concerned, it should never end, they had waited too long, their hearts were too exhausted, but needed a breath, but wen they came up, all that could be said, were three words that would now be part of their lanuege, "I love you," and then, they returned to the moment of bliss, allowing the new links to reconnect to the chain,
