Ichigo started at the sound of footsteps. He hadn't really been asleep - having spend the night in one of the armchairs after falling asleep reading that night, a kink in his back had woken him up about half an hour before. It was still early though, so he'd just picked his book up again and stared hazily at it through his reading glasses. There was an indent across his nose where the frames had pressed while he'd been asleep.

Glancing up from the book, he looked in the direction the sound had come from - the girl's dorms. "Eh? Orihime?" A frown. "What're you doing awake so early?"

Orihime froze at the bottom of the stairs, looking around at the sound of a voice she desperately wished she wasn't hearing. But no, there was Ichigo, who looked as though he'd fallen asleep in the common room reading (like she'd thought he might ( ... )

The confused scowl switched to a deeper one of concern and he caught the look of horror across her face. What the...?

He brushed aside the Thing's whisperings in the back of his mind, easier as it always was in Orihime's presence (he didn't want to examine that thought too closely). She said something - knitting? a scarf? before abruptly breaking off at a point that pretty much made no sense to break off at.

She stared at him for a moment, and the frown creased further as he set the book aside carefully and tossed his glasses onto the table, half rising out of his seat. "Hey, you okay?"

And then she choked out some like 'I'm sorry' and bolted. Ichigo blinked at the place where she had been for a moment before snapping out of it and making the decision to follow.

Orihime paused for half a second at the door, her mind desperately trying to recall the fastest way to Rangiku's office. She ignored the guilt inside her at the terrible way she'd just treated Ichigo and set off down a corridor. It was for the best. Desperate times called for desperate measures, after all. She couldn't very well have just blurted out her deepest secret to him, could she?
Could she?

Shaking off that though, she managed a look over her shoulder as she ran, and was appalled to see Ichigo chasing after her. And getting closer. Gritting her teeth and squeezing her hands to fists she tried to run faster. She knew Ichigo was a much faster runner than she was, but maybe just this once...?
