AN: Hello everyone! This is my new story entitled "First Love". It was a HitsuKarin version of Koizora with a twist and couple of turns. I know that you all know what is the story behind Koizora is but I'm going to make this fan fic a little bit different from it.

WARNING: I'm not really good in English so please understand. I know that there are so many grammar mistakes but I'm still trying my best not to have one. And also this fan fic is extremely OOC. Because it will show the girly side of Karin which means less sarcasm and she will be bullied. But don't worry I'm still going to do my best to put some scenes that can show what really Karin is.

PAIRINGS: Hitsugaya Toushiro and Kurosaki Karin (HitsuKarin), Kurosaki Ichigo and Kuchiki Rukia (IchiRuki) and Hanakiri Jinta and Kurosaki Yuzu (JinYu)

Note: From Tokyo with Love is still on going so please do read it. And please do watch and read Koizora. (Series, Movie and Manga) It was really good and it makes me cry all the time even though I've watch it a hundred times.

NO FLAMES PLEASE. Suggestions and Comments are highly appreciated.

Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach and Koizora. If I did, there will be lots of lots of Hitsukarin and Ichiruki goodness.

Enjoy reading!

IchiLove

If I hadn't met you that day, maybe I will never experience this kind of sadness and pain. But if I hadn't met you I would also not experience so much joy, excitement, happiness, preciousness and LOVE.

How are you now?

I promised there hasn't been a day that I stopped wanting you and you haven't got out of my heart at all since I first met you.

I never stopped loving you every day for the rest of my life.

[8 years ago, freshmen year, spring]

"Hey Karin come on!" Yuzu said to her twin sister as she drags her inside the school cafeteria.

"Just slow down okay." Karin replied. She looked around the cafeteria and she saw Rukia waving on them. "She's there" Karin pointed.

Yuzu looked where she was pointing and smile radiantly. Rukia has been their friend since elementary. They walk towards her and sit beside her.

"Hey, you two slow poke. Come on! Let's eat." Rukia smiled while opening her lunch box. "Hey Karin, is that lip gloss? Can it be that you have someone you like now?"

"Eh? No, no it's not what you think. Yuzu asked me to wear this because my lips are chapped" Karin says. Yuzu is fond of wearing make ups since they've entered high school and she was forced to wear that because her twin has been whining about her chapped lips and boys will not like her if she can't fix herself up.

"Karin-chan, boys will not like you if you don't fix yourself up! And you know what; I already have someone I liked!" Yuzu giggled.

"What?!" Rukia and I asked in unison. Karin was really shocked about Yuzu's announcement. She was her twin, how come that she didn't tell her sooner. And they are still freshmen, is that they're too young to fall in love?

"Who?" Rukia asked again.

"Jinta-kun" Yuzu whispered. She was blushing furiously.

"Jinta?" Karin wondered who that guy is. She never heard his name before.

"Hanakiri Jinta?" Rukia muttered. "You should probably give up. Somebody with earrings and body piercing like that, He's probably not a good guy."

"Really? How did you know?" Yuzu asked. She seems disappointed about what Rukia says.

"Ichigo." She mumbles.

Karin looked at Rukia with eyes wide. "Ichi-nii? He's in college, how did he know this Hanakiri guy?"

"They are also member of the soccer team before during our elementary days." Rukia explained. "But I don't know Jinta too well; you know that I only come to watch their game because of Ichigo."

Silence.

Rukia as has big crush on the twin's older brother since elementary but she gave up when Ichigo entered college. She said that Ichigo will find someone there so she wasn't hoping.

"Come on, let's stop talking about boys and eat" Karin mumbled to break the silence. They both nod and start digging there lunch box.

"He's not here" Yuzu stated disappointedly while scanning the class D's room.

"Let's go already." Rukia said.

"Yuzu, don't stand in front of class D so long." Karin hissed while pulling her sister's arm.

"I know, I know" Yuzu mumbled. She was really disappointed. "Aha! He's right there, walking towards us. He's so cute!" Yuzu shrieked.

Karin looked where Yuzu's pointing and she saw two boys walking towards them, one with red hair who has a Mohawk hairstyle and has many piercing and the other one has striking white hair that defies gravity.

"Which one?" she asked her twin.

"Of course, the guy with red hair." She giggled.

She looked over the guy with red hair and he was walking towards her.

"Hey, I'm Jinta from class D. Can we exchange phone numbers?" He smiled.

"No."

"But –"

"I want to exchange numbers with you!" Yuzu finally said.

Jinta looked at Yuzu and said, "Oh, okay."

"I need to go." She whispered to Yuzu and run through the hallway but she suddenly bumped to someone.

"Ouch."

When Karin looked up she saw the white haired boy glaring at her. "Sorry" she apologized.

The white hair boy just stares at her. He has beautiful teal eyes that match his icy white hair. Karin quickly regains her composure and run away.

X.X

Karin headed back to their class room because our lunch will be over soon. As she sits in her place she saw Yuzu and Rukia walking towards her.

"I got the number." Yuzu said with teary eye.

"Ooh, what happened? Did that Jinta guy hurt you?" Karin asked as she clenched her fist. She never wants to see her twin sister cry. She walked next to her and hugs her comfortingly.

"No."

"Then why are you crying?"

"Jinta-kun wants you." Yuzu said truthfully. Her voice cracked creating a small sob.

"Yuzu…"

"Then promise me Karin-chan, you won't get with Jinta-kun" she said, tears starting to fall in her right eye.

"I promised, and Jinta isn't my type okay. But if that guy hurt you I'll beat him to pulp!" Karin smiled, patting her twin's back soothingly.

"Okay" She smiled.

"Good Afternoon class…" Mayuri sensei walked inside of their room and start discussing.

X.X

Kurosaki family, a simple, happy family of five.

Kurosaki Isshin is the head of the said family. They owns a family clinic which is he was the doctor. He's a mid-forty year old man who still acts like a five year old boy to lighten up his family. Kurosaki Masaki, his wife was the light of the family. Her golden brown hair that cascades through her back and her auburn eyes that compliments to it makes her more like an angel. She was the angel of the family. There first born son, Kurosaki Ichigo who was now attending his first year in college taking up medicine as his course just like his father. He has a ginger hair and auburn eyes just like his mother and always wearing the infamous Kurosaki scowl in his face. And then, there was their twin. Kurosaki Yuzu and Kurosaki Karin. They were fraternal twins but both of them don't mind. They love each other's differences and flaws. Kurosaki Yuzu has a wavy long golden brown hair that reached her chest and a pair of beautiful auburn eyes. Other people say that she was the mini Masaki of the family which indeed is very true. She was shy and soft spoken at first but when they reached high school she grew self-esteem and become more confident which makes her more attractive and lady like. But nothing much has changed; she was still the sweet, caring and loving Yuzu they all know. On the other hand, Kurosaki Karin has a long black straight hair that cascades down her back reaching her waist. She has a big grey eyes and a petite body frame. People say that she was a combination of Kurosaki Isshin because of the Black hair and Ichigo because of her scowling face. Karin was anti-social with other people. She has some friends but not as many as Yuzu have. Boys tend to be afraid to her because of her tomboyish demeanour and her obsession to soccer. But then just like Yuzu, she changed when they reach high school. She said to herself that she will let the girly side of her to come out. But not too girly that she needs to wear make up every day at school just like what Yuzu is doing, she still want to keep the simple, make-up free her. Not too soft, that other people will look down to her. Not too kind, that other people will abuse her and not too sociable to gain everyone's attention. But still, there is something that didn't change about Karin. She still top at her class and she still love soccer, her family and her twin.

"Good Morning Mom." Karin said with a smile as she goes down to the stairs wearing her school uniform.

"Good Morning Karin-chan." Masaki replied while putting their breakfast in the table.

"Where's goat chin?"

"He's in the clinic; someone is calling so he answered it. He'll be back soon." Masaki smiled and kiss her daughters forehead. "Where's Yuzu?"

"She's still in the room mom, busy about her make-up." Karin muttered as she sits on her chair in the dining table.

"Ooh darling, I think you should wear some make-up too."

"Mom! You know I don't like those things." Karin whined.

"Okay, okay." Masaki chuckled. "Go get your sister and I'll call your dad so we can eat our breakfast."

Karin nodded and run back to Yuzu's room to get her twin.

Knock knock

"… Come in" said the voice behind the door.

"Yuzu, how long are you going to put those make-ups? It's been 2 hours and you're not even done?" Karin deadpans.

"Karin-chan, it's hard to put false lashes and besides it's still early. Ne, how do I look?" she asked while turning around as if she was in the catwalk.

"You look great Yuzu. But not as pretty as me." Karin chuckled as she reached for the door knob. "Go down quick, mom and dad are waiting."

"Ok – What?! Is that a compliment or an insult?" laughter escaped through Yuzu's lips.

"It's a compliment, my dear sister of mine. See you downstairs." Karin mocked as she close the door.

Karin sprinted downstairs and she saw her mom and dad are now sited at the dining.

"Good Morning my beautiful Karin-chan!" Her father said joyously while pulling her to a big bear hug.

"Morning goat chin." She replied trying to get out of her father's grip.

"Good morning everyone!" Yuzu chirped as she goes down to the stairs.

"Ooh, my darling Yuzu. You looked great" Isshin said while letting go of Karin and approach her other daughter into a big bear hug.

"No, hugging dad."

Isshin halted. "Why?" He pouted.

"I spend 2 hours putting my makeup dad; I don't want it to get ruined."Yuzu explained.

"Ooh, my dear Masaki! Our girls are growing up! They don't want their daddy to hug them anymore." He stated dramatically as he goes to his wife and hugs her.

"Yes, our two beautiful girls are growing up." She agreed while patting her husband's back.

"Come on, let's eat. We'll be going to be late." Karin sighs.

They all looked at her and nodded.

It's been 3 months ago since the twin's entered high school as well as Ichigo in college. He is now boarding in Tokyo because he is attending the University with his friends.

"Bye mom, we need to go now. See you later." Karin said as she kisses her mom's cheek. "Bye dad."

"Come on, Karin-chan. We will be going to be late!" Yuzu yelled.

"Alright girls, take care. See you later." Their mom said while there father is waving them goodbye.

"We will." Both Karin and Yuzu say simultaneously.

The "Me" that time still doesn't know what really love is. Is it the same way as I love my family? My twin? Or even more.

"Ne, Yuzu. Did you see my mobile phone?" Karin asked as she was searching through her bag.

"No Karin-chan. Do you want me to call it?"

"Yes." Karin said as she goes around the room searching for her missing mobile phone.

Yuzu begun to dial her mobile phone. "I'm calling" she said.

"It's not here, I can't hear it."

"Maybe you dropped it somewhere Karin-chan" Yuzu sighs. She walks towards the book shelves and help Karin to search of it.

"Maybe, I dropped it in the library!" Karin exclaimed. "Wait for me here" She said while running outside the room.

When Karin reached the library, she began searching for her mobile phone. She looked under the chairs, the tables and some of the shelves. Sighing in defeat, she gave up searching for it and walked towards the library door. But before she goes out, she heard her mobile ringtone ringing.

"Kimi to boku to "Sakura biyori" kaze ni sotto yomigaeru

Kimi mo ima doko ka de miteru no kanaa ano hi to onaji momoiro no sora"

"It's my ring tone." She said as she walked towards the book shelves again. "Aha! There it is!" She looked where the sounds are coming from. And she saw her mobile phone stacked in the middle of the books.

"Hello, Yuzu. I found it! Thank you." She said as she answers the call.

"That's good." The voice replied. It was not Yuzu, it belongs to a boy.

"Who are you?" Karin asked.

"Secret." The voice said. "See you, Karin-chan."

Call Ended.

Karin looked over her mobile phone and she saw that the number who called her is not registered to her phone book. She also sees that all the numbers in her phone book are gone. She quickly dialled the number who called earlier.

"Hello?"

"What is it?" The guff voice replied.

"Um, I'm the owner of the mobile phone you found."

"I know. I've already saved your number."

"All the addresses of the people in my phone are gone, what did you do?" she asked.

"I deleted them."

"But why did you do that?!" her voice cracked.

"Why? Are you upset?" He asked.

"Of course! It's important!" she said, raising her voice slightly.

"Does losing those numbers upset you that much? If the person really cares for you, they will be the one who will call you."

Call Ended.

"Tadaima!" Yuzu called out as she opens the front door of the Kurosaki family.

"Okaeri" Their mother greeted. She was preparing their dinner.

"Welcome home my loving daughters!" Their father said cheerfully. He was dancing like crazy to entertain his family.

"Isshin stop that, the food's ready. Come on girls, let's eat." Masaki said as she was putting their dinner at the table.

"Hai." The twins and Isshin said in unison. "Thanks for the food." They all said.

"This is really delicious mom." Yuzu complimented while taking a piece of chicken karaage and stuff the whole piece to her mouth.

Masaki smiled at her daughter and begin to eat.

"Beep. Beep. Beep. Beeeeeeeeeeeeeep." Karin's mobile phone rings.

Karin looked at her mobile phone and she saw one message on her inbox.

Karin, did you find your mobile phone? Yuzu tell me what happened.

She presses the reply button and texted back.

I found it.

- Message sent.

"So Karin, Yuzu. How's your day?" Masaki asked her daughters.

"It's fine mom, Karin dropped her mobile phone in the library but we searched all over the school before she found it." Yuzu answered.

"I'm a little bit in a rush. So I accidentally dropped it." Karin explained as she put her mobile phone back to her pocket.

"You need to be more careful Karin." Her mother says gently.

"I know mom." She said.

When they are finished eating their dinner, Yuzu volunteered to wash the dishes and Karin went up to her room. It's been 4 years now since there house got renovated. She was not sharing a room with Yuzu anymore.

"I'm so tired." Karin yawned.

"Kimi to boku to "Sakura biyori" kaze ni sotto yomigaeru

Kimi mo ima doko ka de miteru no kanaa ano hi to onaji momoiro no sora"

Karin gets her mobile phone to her pocket and sits at the edge of her bed.

Incoming Call…

Unknown number

She hesitated to answer the call but curiosity eats her. She presses the green button and begun to speak.

"Hello?"

"It's me." The familiar voice said. It was the voice of the guy who found her mobile phone.

"What do you want?" She asked, slightly annoyed.

"Is that how you thank the one who found your mobile phone?" He chuckled.

"Okay, thank you. Can I end this call? I'm sleepy." Karin growled.

"Hey, are you angry?"

"No. can we just stop this?"

"You sound angry." He laughs again.

"Am not"

"You are."

"Am not"

"You are."

"Okay I give up! Will you just shut the fuck up?!" Karin slightly yelled.

"Hey, must be so vulgar?" he asked. "Anyway, your sleepy voice is really cute. And don't say vulgar words too much, it doesn't suit you. Good night."

Call Ended.

"What's with that guy?" Karin thought before she sleeps.

X.X

"Ne, Karin-chan I'm going out with Rukia, will you come?" Yuzu asked her sister.

"Sorry Yu, I'll pass. I have something to do." Karin lied. She knows that Rukia and her twin will just go on shopping and she hates it.

"But last Saturday, you didn't join us." Yuzu whined. "Please Karin-chan." She pleaded, using her puppy dog eyes style to persuade her sister.

"Yuzu, today is Saturday. I need some rest. We spend five days in school and now are the only day that we can rest properly so I'll pass. I'll join you next time, promised." Karin said

"Okay" Yuzu pouted. "Tell Mom and Dad that I'm going out." She said as she marched towards the front door.

"I will. Be home by six okay? Take care!" Karin smiled.

"See you later."

The world has been different to Karin since that day, and she doesn't want to remember it anymore. She headed back to her room and lay down to her bed.

"Kimi to boku to "Sakura biyori" kaze ni sotto yomigaeru

Kimi mo ima doko ka de miteru no kanaa ano hi to onaji momoiro no sora"

She pulled out her mobile phone in her pocket and answers the call.

"Hello?" She said.

"Good Morning." The voice in the other line said.

"It's you again, will you stop calling me?" Karin asked.

"Why? We're friends right? Karin." He said.

"Stop calling my name, and I don't know you." She muttered.

"My name is…"

"…"

"Secret" He laugh.

"You pesky little…" she growled.

"Hey watch your language!" He said slightly annoyed.

"Could you just tell me who you are and what class are you in?" She asked.

"Hey, you've started to be interested to me. Aren't you?" he mock

"Of course not, you asshole! It's just it isn't fair."

"Okay, I'll just give you a hint."

"..."

"I'm handsome."

"You're joking right?" She laughs.

"Hey, are you insulting me?!" He also chuckled joining her.

Karin never felt this happiness for a long time, and he was the reason behind it. She still didn't know that love had already come by her side.

X.X

"Ichi-nii" Karin whispered as she walks inside her brother's room. She misses her brother so much maybe because they are so much alike. He was not her twin but their but their attitude are almost the same. Unlike Yuzu, who is sweet, gentle and caring, they are both stubborn, light tempered and wears those infamous Kurosaki scowl. Their house was not lively as before when he's gone for college.

"Karin-chan?" Yuzu peeked inside her brother's room. "We'll see him soon." She said while patting her sister's back.

"I know." Karin sigh, facing her sister and hug her. "I missed him Yu."

"Me too." Yuzu replied with a soothing voice.

"Ne, where's dad and mom? Karin asked while going out of the room with her twin.

"Dad attends some meeting in Kobe but he'll be back soon and Mom, she goes out for shopping. She said that she still have those coupons so she didn't hesitate go and it's Sunday so the malls are on sale." Yuzu explained.

"Oh, okay." Karin smiled weakly. "I'll be in my room if you need me." She said as she walks towards her room.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Yuzu asked. She feels that there is something wrong about her twin.

"No, I'm just tired Yu." She said as she entered the door and closed it.

"Okay." Yuzu sigh. She is still thinking why her twin is acting so weird.

"Kimi to boku to "Sakura biyori" kaze ni sotto yomigaeru

Kimi mo ima doko ka de miteru no kanaa ano hi to onaji momoiro no sora"

Incoming Call…

Nameless bastard.

Karin smiled. It's him who is calling her again. She opened her mobile phone and begins to speak.

"Hello." She said.

"Hey"

"Why are you calling me again?" Karin asked while flopping to her bed.

"Are you alright?" He asked ignoring her question.

"Yes I am, why?"

"Your voice, it sounds sad. Is there any problem?" He asked with concerned voice.

Karin smiled. This guy knew her even though they've talk for just a couple of days.

"I missed my brother." She said truthfully.

"Why is he dead?" He asked.

"Of course not! You baka! He's just out for college!" Karin scowls.

Ten points for calling her.

Twenty points for knowing what she feels right now.

Fifty points for making her smile.

They are all gone now, by saying her brother was dead.

"Sorry." He quickly apologized.

"I'm going to kill you when I see you!" Karin hissed under her breath.

"Okay then kill me, let's meet tomorrow before the class starts at the school's roof top." He said.

"Are you serious? I'm just joking."

"Of course, you want to see me right." He chuckled. "See you."

Call Ended.

"I'm going meet him." Karin thought. "I need to talk to Yuzu." She said as she run out to her room to find her twin. Unfortunately, her twin was not in the living area where she was probably watching television by this time of the day. "Maybe she's in her room."

Knock knock.

"Come in." Her twin said behind the close door.

"Hey Yu." Karin said as she entered her twin's room.

"Yes? Do you need something Karin-chan?" Yuzu asked her twin.

"Umm, I need to tell you something." Karin hesitated at first; she doesn't know how she will tell Yuzu about the "Unknown Bastard".

"What is it?" Yuzu shrug. She watched Karin slumped beside her with a ridiculous look in her face.

"Do you remember last time, that you were asking me who the hell is calling me all this time." Karin started. "Well, he wants to meet me tomorrow."

"Oh my gosh, Karin-chan! I'm so proud of you!" Yuzu squealed, hugging her sister to a bone crushing hug.

"Yuzu… can't breathe."

"Oh, I'm sorry Karin-chan, I'm just happy for you. You finally found someone that you like!" Yuzu said while letting go of her sister.

"It's not that I like him Yu, I haven't met him and I'm not ready for that shit called love." Karin mumbled.

"Aww, You're mean Karin-chan, being in love is the best thing." The ginger girl exclaimed. "So what do you want?"

"Well you see…" Karin begins her story.

X.X

"Are you sure about this Karin?" Yuzu asked her sister while putting some pink blush on her cheek.

"Yes, he sounds nice on the phone but I'm a little bit nervous." Karin said truthfully.

"Do you still want to meet him? You can still back out you know."

"I don't know, he seems a nice person." Karin sighs, she still can't decide whether to meet him or not.

"Then you should go for it." Her twin smiled while fixing her hair. "You still owe me by putting you some make up."

"I know Yu, thank you." Karin hugs her twin.

"Come on, let's go down." Yuzu said as she drags Karin out of her room.

"Yu, how do I look?" Karin asked as they go down to the stairs.

"You look really fabulous dear!" Yuzu smiled. "You still looked beautiful without this make ups Karin-chan. You are always beautiful inside and out." She though while following her sister from behind.

"Karin-chan! I'm ever blossoming daughter, you looked so beautiful!" Isshin exclaimed as she saw his daughters going down. "You too my beloved Yuzu, I'm so proud to be the father of you two!" He continued as he acts like he was crying because of happiness.

"Oh my, Karin dear, you looked great!" Masaki gasp as she looked at her black haired daughter with pride.

"Thank you mom." Karin smiled.

"Mom, we need to go. Karin-chan is going to meet someone special." Yuzu winked. "Bye Dad!" she said as she pulled Karin to their front door.

"My Karin-chan is growing up!" Isshin cried with fake tears. "Oh, Masaki look at our beautiful flowers, they're growing up! Isshin exclaimed as he run towards her wife and hug her.

"Indeed my love, they are growing really beautiful."

X.X

"Yu, I'm nervous." Karin said while holding her twin's hand.

"You can do it Karin-chan. Go on!" She said pushing Karin towards the school roof top's door.

"Okay." Karin took a deep breath and holds the door knob. "I can do this" she said to herself.

"Good luck Karin-chan." Yuzu cheered as she waved her good bye.

Karin nod and opened the door and shut it behind her.

The school's rooftop is deserted when Karin arrived there. Students are not allowed to go their but no one gets punished so she didn't care. She looked around and sees nothing even a glimpse of someone's shadow. When Karin gets tired of waiting, she decided to leave but someone stopped her.

"Hey wait." The familiar voice said.

Karin turned around and her eyes widened. The guy who was walking towards her has a striking white hair that defies gravity, he has beautiful teal eyes and he was smirking. Karin quickly turned around and looked for the exit but the guy stopped her, pulling her arms so she can't go.

"Karin"

She stopped and turned around again.

"Why are you wearing make up? It's not like you at all." The guy said while brushing some blush on off to her cheek.

"Who the hell are you?!" She snapped.

"That's the Karin I know, vulgar." He said, rolling his eyes.

"Just leave me alone, you creep!" Karin said as she marched down towards the exit but suddenly her mobile phone rings, so she pulled it out and looked at the screen.

"Kimi to boku to "Sakura biyori" kaze ni sotto yomigaeru

Kimi mo ima doko ka de miteru no kanaa ano hi to onaji momoiro no sora"

Incoming call…

Unknown Bastard.

Her eyes widened like dinner plates. She turned around again for the third time and he saw the guy behind him was waving his phone.

"Do you believe now? It's me." He said as he walks next to her and snatched her phone. "So my name in your mobile phone is "Unknown bastard"? You really love to insult me huh." The white haired guy chuckled while pressing some buttons in her phone.

"What are you doing?" Karin said, slightly annoyed.

"Here." He tossed her mobile phone and she catches it.

"For your information, my name is not unknown bastard. It's…"

"Hitsugaya Toushiro." She continued while reading his name on her phone.

"Good." He smirked while heading to the exit. "See you later."

"Wait!" She called but he's already gone.

"Hitsugaya Toushiro huh?" She smiled as she put back her mobile phone to her pocket. "His name suits him." Karin though for the last time and headed out of the roof top.

She begins to like him.

AN: Yes! The first chapter is finally finished! I really enjoy making this fan fic so expect me to update every week. I know that Toushiro Hitsugaya is an OOC here and I'm so sorry. I'm going to try my best to show his real stoic attitude. So please read and review!

No flames please.

Ja ne!

IchiLove.
