He's the one who likes, all our pretty songs and he, likes to sing along and he, likes to shoot his gun, but he-
Don't know what it means, don't know what it means when I say yeah
I looked at him, and for some reason, his words didnt effect me. He kept staring at me, eyeballing me up and down, trying to look into me and figure out what was going through my mind. Him saying I was in danger was kind of a relief; I know that sounds weird, but it gave me this feeling that I existed, and that I wasn't just another speck of snow in this blizzard in which we live in.
"You're not scared, are you." I blinked my eyes to leave my thoughts, and looked at him.
"No, I'm not." He took a couple steps towards me, and examined me even closer. "I believe you," He said, so close to me now that he could probably smell the shampoo that was lingering in my hair. "What do you want me to do?" I asked him quietly, as if I thought someone was listening in on us. "Hmm," he said, turning from me and taking a seat on my bed, "We have to leave soon, so pack some clothes, who knows when you'll be back here." I smiled wearily, making my way to my dresser. I didn't look at Ichigo, but I had this sense of concern radiating from him.
"I'm okay," I said, answering his unspoken question. "I live alone, it's not like anyone is going to miss me when I'm gone." I heard him sigh. "You sure seem to be taking this pretty well. I havent even told you whats going on, nonetheless the only thing you really know about me is my name. And your just, okay with that?" I nodded my head and threw my clothes into a grocery bag. I turned and faced him, and made my way over to sit beside him.
"I have this feeling of trust from you. I have this sense that we've known eachother for a long time, even though I know for a fact that I've never seen you before, until now. I trust you. I'm not afraid of you. I'll go wherever you want me to, because somehow... I knew that I was meant to do whatever it is you want me to do." He stared at me, a little puzzled, and I giggled at him.
"w-whats so funny?!" He said, jumping up and feeling at his face.
"Your facial expressions crack me up, you look at me as if you've never seen a female before!" He blushed "Psh, whatever, of course I have." He paused for a moment and scratched the back of his head. "I've just never met a stranger that I've only known for about half an hour, say something like that. You seem like you're pretty open with me." I smiled again. "I trust you, remember?" He smiled, and chuckled. "Well, I guess we better get going!" He said a little more enthusiastically. Ichigo grabbed my hand and led me toward the window. He stepped on the outside of the window frame and I could tell he was getting ready to jump, but I pulled him back suddenly.
"What are you doing?! We cant jump!!! It's too high!" He shook his head and laughed. "How do you think I got up here?" I just looked at him "I-I dont know-" "And didn;t you say you trusted me?" He said with a little sly smirk. I looked down at my feet, and paused. So what if I did fall... no big deal right? We're probably not that high... I looked at him and nodded. "I trust you." "OKAY THEN!" He said, pulled me and jumping in the air. I squeeled and closed my eyes, but I felt him effortlessly pull me up onto his shoulders.
My eyes were still closed and I felt a warm breeze hit my face. Are we falling? ugh, I cant tell, i'm too afraid to open my eyes!
"Open those eyes up," Ichigo said calmly. I trusted him, so I did as he told me.
We were up high, the sky was dark and the stars were as bright as ever. I smiled. It was so breathtaking that I actually felt like crying. I smiled, and I realized that I've never felt so alive. This guy with crazy orange hair, that I've only known for about an hour, made me feel happier than I have been in years. It was so weird, this sensation of being free. Even if I was in danger, just feeling this free and alive was worth it, even for a short while.
"Where are we going now?" I said, as we were flying swiftly through the air.
"A place that's nothing like this world, and you'll soon realize that this feeling you have will soon fade. We are going to a place called The Soul Society."
