Rukia's P.O.V

     Date: 7/02/07

Dear Diary: Ichigo and I are getting closer. Very close. It's...nice. He's, like, my best friend. And I'm his best friend. We tell eachother alot. A couple days ago, in the middle of the night, while it was raining, he told me about his mother dieing. It was... hard for him to tell me about it. But he told me about it. And he told me how he blames himself for his mother's death, how it's his fault those first couple of weeks without their mother, that both of his sisters cried every night. He, also told me that..he misses her. When he told me that, he had tears in his eyes. He looked so broken and sad, that I actually broke down and hugged him! He hugged me back. I told him while we were hugging that "You're allowed to cry, Ichigo. It's okay to cry." And...he did cry. He cried and I cried, and it was all just so emotional! But, ever since then we've been getting closer. He's told me so much these last couple of days. I think, it's time I told him something....

Dear Diary: Last night, I told him something. I told him about Kaien. About how he was important to me, and about how he died by my hand. Why I was telling him all this, he was listening and holding my hand. It felt good to tell him about Kaien. It was as emotional as it was a couple nights ago when he told me about his mother's death. We both cried and, then I was laughing. It was pretty funny! Both of us sitting on his bed, hugging and crying! He laughed along with me. Then he... he kissed me. Before I knew it, he broke the kiss and started to say things like "I'm so sorry Rukia." and "I shouldn't of kissed you." I just grabbed him by the back of his neck, pulled him an inch from my lips and whispered "I'm glad ya did." then I crushed his lips to mine. It was a nice kiss. Soft and gentle. But, soon it got deeper and more passionate....


I still can't believe he kissed me. It was so... unexpected. But, I am glad it happened. If he hadn't of kissed me last night, I probably wouldn't of went on a date with him tonight! The date was nice. We went to this thing called "A Movie Theater"! We had popcorn and watched this action/adventure movie on this huge screen! After the movie I told him cheerfully: "We should go to the Movie Theater again soon." He just laughed, grabbed my hand, and said "Sure." Then we bothed walked home. Hand in hand. It was a beautiful date. I'm so happy I met Ichigo! I don't care what Soul Society says, I'm staying with Ichigo, in the human world. I'm never letting go of him. Anyway, if they dragged me back to Soul Society (which I doubt they'd get passed Ichigo) Ichigo would just come rescue me again! Pffft, he's saved my ass so many times, I've lost count!


    No more goodbye's or letting go. Just, Ichigo and I, living our lives. Together.


                                               No more letting go.
                                                   Not any more.
