That Time: Only You (A Bleach Love Story)

Chapter 26

Two days had passed since my return to the world of the living.

Sakura, who we still have tied up, would refuse to eat or talk. The only time she would talk with be to assault me or Byakuya.

Not only that, Byakuya hasn't spoken to me much ever since I got back.

The only time he did speak to me was when he would say good morning, and so on.

I had started to spend my time at Akiko's backyard garden. She had a giant maze, in the middle of the maze was a pond. It was the perfect area to think or be alone.

"I wonder if Byakuya got over me..." I whispered to myself.

Honestly, the fact that he would be over me was good. He can find someone who would deeply love him back.

"But, you do love him." Someone said.

I jumped and looked back. Only to see Yui and Hakure behind me.

Yui smiled and sat down next to me. "You're having mxed feelings."

"I guess. But, he seems distant now." I told them.

Hakure crossed his arms and frowned. "So what? If you like the guy, go for it."

I looked down and thought about what Hakure said.

Byakuya was walking to the room Sakura was held in, only to be stopped by Hisana.

"Hisana?" Byakuya looked at her confusingly.

"Byakuya, is there something wrong between you and Blossom?" Hisana asked.

He shook his head. "Not at all. Everything is fine..."

Byakuya tried to open Sakura's door, only to have Hisana block his path.

"Why do you visit her a lot?" Hisana asked, she seemed to want answers.

He glared at her. "It is none of your concern as to why I visit her."

"Byakuya!" I yelled.

Byakuya and Hisana both looked ny way.

I stopped in front of Byakuya and looked at him.

"Byakuya.. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, if I've been acting like an idiot. I always only cared about my feelings. Not thinking about yours. I know it hurts that I always have gone after Aizen, when you have admitted your feelings to me. Byakuya, I do love you. So, please let's start over...?" I told him.

Hisana smiled a bit.

Byakuya just stared at me. "Blossom, that is very kind of you to finally admit those feelings. But, some things do have a time limit."

I tilt my head a bit. "Time... limit?"

"I'm tired of always going after you. I'm sick of it." Byakuya told me.

My eyes widened and I looked down. "I understand..."

"Byakuya-" Hisana stopped, as Byakuya glared at her.

Hisana stared into Byakuya's eyes, only to see that his eyes had a hint of anger, rage and hatred. An empty soul.

He walked inside Sakura's room and slammed the door shut.

"Blossom, sorry..." Hisana placed her hand on my shoulder.

I quickly shook my head. "Don't worry! It's fine, I understand. He's right though."

Akiko pulled Uryu's ear. "Quit it. You do realize you're in my home. Quit being stupid."

"Yeah. Yeah. I understand, now will you please let go of my ear?" Uryu asked.

"Listen, I'm going to check on somethings with Aizen. He found something important. " Akiko told Uryu.

Uryu just stared at her. "What do you mean?"

She shrugged and stared back at him.
