Questioning Orihime

Toshiro made his way to orihime's house thinking about what he should ask her. When he got there he knocked on the door and waited. Opening the door with a smile, Orihime was surprised to find Toshiro Hitsugaya on her doorstep.
"Captain! What brings you here...?"
"Hello Orihime," he said grimly, "May I come in?"
"Um, Sure!...." Orihime spoke quickly, letting him enter. "Is everything alright?"
Toshiro entered her house and sat down at her low coffee table. "Yes everything is perfectly fine. The Soul Society is just curious about your unexpected return."
"Oh...." She said, unsure of what to say about that. She remembered clearly the night she came back, but was sworn to secrecy. She couldn't say anything to Hitsugaya....not a word. She put on a big smile. "Well. I don't really know what happened." She lied. "I was just kinda here."
Toshiro stared at he a while as though he were trying to read her thoughts, but then looked down. "Well that's a shame. I hoped you could give us something to go on about their inner workings." He looked up at her again and asked, "You remember nothing of the time you spent there?"
"I....I...." Orihime twiddled her fingers together as she looked at her lap. "I remember a room that I stayed in. Ulquiorra-sama would bring me food and talk to me. And...Aizen. He...wanted me to serve him..."
That sparked something in Toshiro's mind. He looked at Orihime with fierce eyes, "Serve him!?! How?" He knew she was keeping something from him and he was determined to get it out of her.
"I...don't know." She admitted solemnly. "I just know he was fierce about me saying that I belonged to him."
"You belonged with him....?" She did remember, he knew she did, but before he could ask his next question his phone rang. He took his phone out of his pocket and looked at the caller id. It was Byakuya. "Orihime, please excuse me. I have to take this. He walked out of ear shot from Orihime and answered his phone.
"Yes? ......... I'll be right there."
He walked back towards Orihime and said, "I'm sorry, I have to go. We will continue this conversation later." With that he headed to the door. Orihime jumped up.
"What's wrong?" She said with a concern-filled tone. Toshiro turned around and smiled at Orihime, "It's nothing for you to worry about. Just stay here and rest up. You must be tired from your ordeal." He quickly darted out the door and ran in the direction of Ichigo's house. As he ran he thought, "Orihime's return, traces of arrancar spiritual pressure around Ichigo's house, and his missing sister's. Are these events connected?" He couldn't help but think they were.
"Ok then...bye..." Orihime said as he left. She wondered if she should follow him.
