Not just Friends:

Crying Orihime

Ichigo walks down the street to school like a normal day until he reached the house of Orihime Inoue. They never really did meet, but they knew each other from school. Ichigo usually just walks by, but this time something caught his eye. Orihime was sitting on her steps sobbing. He couldn't help but to see what was wrong.

"Hi, im Ichigo. Are you okay?" he asks with a polite but needy way. She just sits there with out a word

"umm, you don't have to tell me, but maybe it will help if you talk about it " still Ichigo received no answer from the young girl.

"At lease let me walk you to school" that made Orihime look up with red blood shot eyes and a tear stained face.

"okay" she says at almost an unheard whisper

The two young kids walk down the street in silence, except for Orihime's remaining sobs. Ichigo looks at her with such sadness in his eyes, even though he doesn't know what happened to a girl who is usually so full of joy.

They arrive at school, Orihime's crying stops as she goes through the doors. She walks to her locker grabs her books and heads to class. Ichigo stands outside talking to some friends and laughing at Keigo's stupid jokes, but has he laughed at his friends stupid jokes his mind wandered to Orihime. Was she okay? What was wrong? Will I ever know? Question after question went through his mind as he thought of the once crying girl

How long will I have to wait to hear the answer? He thought to himself as the bell rang to get to class

The class room was noisy as Ichigo entered the class. When he looked around the class for an available seat he noticed Orihime wasn't in class.

"Hey Ichigo, there's a seat here" he heard Tatsuki say from across the room. "Hey, you know where Orihime is?" Ichigo asked worried for the girl

"Im her best friend Ichigo, not her stalker"

As the day progressed, Ichigo never saw Orihime, and his thoughts always lead to how she was. School ended and he walked home alone. When he opened the front door to his house, which was the clinic and saw her, Orihime in a corner of the waiting room, curled up in a ball hyperventilating.

"Oh my god, Orihime what happened?" Ichigo asked not really expecting an answer. Ichigo's dad, Isshin walked in with the bad news…
