Pale Fire: A Bleach Fanfiction

Chapter forty: The Question

A/N: It’s important that you read this, guys.

Oh my goodness guys, I can’t apologize to all of you enough. It has been months since my last upload and I’ve been procrastinating so much that I got nothing done. And also, more apologizes…the last chapter I have to scrap. I was trying to do some arc involving Hotaru (Reina’s unbelievably gorgeous zanpakuto) but then it all turned like crap so you have to ignore the last chapter, I’m so so so sorry. Also, I’ve been watching so much of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden that I’ve kinda got lost track of Bleach :P

I might write a fanficiton about Kakashi though (if everyone knows who he is, he’s gorgeous). And please ignore what you’ve read. I will be continuing on with Reina’s awesome life (there’s a huge twist coming up so stay tuned ;D) so please ignore everything you read in the previous chapter. (I’V PUT THIS PART IN CAPS SO YOU’LL NOTICE, SO SORRY) MURAMUSA AND THE ZANPAKUTO REBELLION STUFF IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER HAS BEEN SCRAPPED. Thank youuuu xD

I love you all. This chapter is dedicated to MomotaroChan because I miss her so much and she’s been my first real best friend ever since I was a little girl. She’s amazing and it has been nearly five years I think since I’ve last seen her. Also this is a message to her: Remember that black necklace you gave me on that day I took home with me my Barbie (my cute cat)? That was the day before you were leaving to Belgrade. I’ve still kept it to this day. <3 And I also don’t know if you still use wattpad.

Anyway, enjoy the chapter. P.s. it's very very short, but I'll update in a few hours, relaxxxxx 

xx <3

Chapter forty:

I didn’t tell Rukia what I originally intended on telling her. Neither did I tell Byakuya. Maybe I should just keep it to myself for now. It won’t hurt to keep Rukia’s true identity a secret for a while. Instead I had a normal conversation with her, introducing myself. Then Byakuya and I said goodbye and we headed for his manor without another word.

I curled up on my bed. I was in my room, in Byakuya’s manor. He had invited me to stay there (much to Renji’s shock). My eyes were half-closed as I lay there. The truth was that I still loved Byakuya. I don’t know how to tell him that I am. He is probably still trying to get over Hisana. I sighed. I missed Ulquiorra so much. Is it possible to love two at the same time? My head felt heavy. I started to taste sour in my mouth. I gulped as a breath escaped my mouth. I stood up and started running to the bathroom. Reflex took over as I groaned loudly, crouching over the sink. Loud groans escaped me and a sickening feeling started to creep up from my stomach to my mouth.

Puke erupted from my mouth as I vomited again and again. Tears started to spill unconditionally as I hastily turned the tap on and cupped my hands under the water, splashing it to my face. I stared in the mirror. My face wasn’t like before. I had lost some weight, and bags circled underneath my eyes. I wiped my face with my sleeve and slowly walked out of the room. I grabbed my zanpakuto that was against the wall. I sat down, placing it on my lap. I tried to feel it’s presence within its blade, but nothing. Answer me, Hotaru. I sighed again. There was hardly any light in my room, and I liked it that way. I tied my sword around my waist. What’s wrong Reina? I grinned slowly. Nothing, I’ll talk to you soon.

I decided to get up, and receive some fresh air. Maybe I should visit an old friend. It’s been a while since I last spoke to Toshiro.

I walked outside the manor and the sun was slowly setting. Byakuya walked past me and curtly nodded. I smiled back. Byakuya stopped and faced me. “Reina, are you okay? You don’t look that well.”

“It’s okay Byakuya,” I replied, smiling. “I’m just a little tired from training today, that’s all. Would you like to come with me? I’m going to Toshiro-” I felt like screaming. What’s wrong with me today? I gripped my stomach and was about to rip it apart with pain that was slowly erupting inside of me. My knees lost balance but Byakuya was quick to catch me before I fell to the ground.

“You need to rest, Reina,” he spoke softly.

I didn’t reject as he gently carried me back inside. I moaned quietly as he placed me on my bed. He hesitated and stroked my cheek, his fingers slightly touching my skin. I closed my eyes and slowly opened them. He glanced at me then looked away. Without looking into my eyes, he placed his lips on my forehead. By now, the pain occurring in my abdomen had subsided. What a coincidence, I thought grimly.

Neither of us uttered a word. Byakuya unfastened his zanpakuto and untied mine. He placed both of them on the ground near the end of my bed. He took off his haori and scarf, placing it gently on the ground. He then sat by my side. I stared at him intently.

He reached forward and cupped my face. He gazed at my lips then placed his upon mine. I kissed him back. I’ve never been more in love with Byakuya. We let go of each other. I knew what was coming and I embraced it.

*** 

I opened my eyes. My bare body was entwined with Byakuya’s. The morning sun slowly peeked through the curtains. I shifted my body slowly so I faced him. I pecked the side of his neck as he opened his eyes.

“Reina,” he said. The first word he’s spoken since it happened. Silence crept upon us. “Marry me,” he whispered.

A/N: Again, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience I made with the previous chapter and stuff, but you have to forgive me. Also, I apologize for the very short chapter but you know how much I love cliffhangers. Thanks so much for reading.

Love you all.
