โah, no! of course not!โ
she quickly shook her head, waving her hands in front of herself.
โi didn't mean there's anything wrong with being professional, alma~san!โ
her expression softened at the mention of their past.

the sudden embrace steals whatever words she might have offered. her heart gives such a tremendous leap that sheโs almost certain he must feel it against his own chest.
goodness . . heโs so close.
โนโหโง๏ธตโฟโเญจแฐเญงโโฟ๏ธตโงหโโน
for a moment, she forgets how to breathe. his words settle somewhere deep within her chest, leaving behind a warmth so overwhelming that she can hardly contain it.
the gentle touch against her wrist certainly isnโt helping matters!

(she gives his shoulder a tiny, harmless tap, an embarrassed little pout forming on her lips.)
"well, maybe i wouldn't make so much noise if a certain someone stopped catching me off guard! ~โ
โintruders . . ?โ
her eyes widened, though she tried very hard not to look like the word had struck too close. her thoughts jumped immediately to ichigo, ishida, chad . . everyone who had come here with her.

It's a shame they're so late. He wished he had more time to study each individual carefully, but soon things will be set in motion. Soon, Sลsuke Aizen will die.
โExcuse me.แ You shouldn't be out right now๏ฝคthere are intruders roaming around.แโ A shinigami.
But until then...
โbut you know . . you donโt have to protect me because you feel like you owe me something. iโd much rather you stay because itโs what your heart wants.โ
her cheeks grow a shade pinker, her thumb brushing lightly against his hand.
โand . . iโd like to take care of you, too.โ
she finds herself speechless, amber irises widening as she takes in every word. the faintest shade of pink blossoms across her cheeks yet again.
he wants to stay by my side . . ? of his own free will?
โนโหโง๏ธตโฟโเญจแฐเญงโโฟ๏ธตโงหโโน
a faint blush creeps across her cheeks at the thoughts, prompting her to lower her gaze toward her tea.
โyou donโt owe me anything. really, you donโt.โ
her smile grows as she looks back at him.
โknowing that youโre alive, that youโve found people who care about you . .

she settles beside him, her own cup cradled between her hands. his words catching her by surprise.
โulquiorra~kun . .โ
he really has become so sweet, hasnโt he . . ? she thinks to herself, sneaking another glance at him.
โนโหโง๏ธตโฟโเญจแฐเญงโโฟ๏ธตโงหโโน
โah . . maybe both things are true.โ
she smiled softly.
โyou were quiet, and i was . . somewhere else in my thoughts.โ
her gaze lowers.
โsomeone said something kind. i keep remembering.โ
