| It Snowed... |

It snowed in Karakura at last. I was wondering when it might. I think it came a lot earlier this year than last year, but I can't remember. It's relaxing, though, just sitting by the window with a hot drink in your hands...even if you don't drink it...watching the snow fall. I love the snow the very best when it's dark, and you walk under a streetlamp to look up. It's like heaven.
I had a talk with Dizzy that helped me a lot. She has a crush on Uryuu, and though I admit that it hurt a little at first, by the end of the night I was glad that she'd told me. I worry about him too much. I was afraid he might be lonely and distant. But I don't think he will be with Dizzy, she's such a nice person. She even apologized for feeling jealous. I don't know if I could ever have the courage to tell someone I was jealous of them. I never told Rukia. I suppose it's because I'm afraid they would think it was a mean sort of jealous, that I had negative feelings towards them, instead of just wishing that I could be like that, or that I could have such a thing in my life. I don't like being jealous. Thankfully, I have no reasons to be jealous of anyone or anything right now.
Ling's recovering a lot more, I'm so relieved. He got drunk on the weekend and went up on the roof. I admit it's not the smartest thing in the world, but, well, he's never all that uncoordinated when he does get drunk. Somehow, Rangiku and Captain Ukitake and Uryuu and Uryuu's cat were all up there too. I was the only one who couldn't jump up there! Rangiku carried me up, though, and then Tatsuki joined us, and then Rangiku brought out sake and gave me a cup... Ohhhh, I shouldn't have had any at all! I learned that you are supposed to sip it, not gulp it. I sort of learned that too late, though, and had a terrible hangover the next morning. Uryuu must have known it would turn out like that, because he came by to check on me. He gave me aspirin and water and a new icebag for my head.
We talked about a great many things, and we hugged each other. I realized that there was just one regret that I carried; I felt bad for not kissing him back that night on the porch. I'd been too stunned to realize he would, and that he had. So, I kissed him. It wasn't the way that I kiss Ling, it was just short and sweet. I wanted to do it, though, so I could let go. He smiled at me and hugged me again, and before I knew it, I told him that I loved him too.
But you know what? It was okay. I know he loves me, and that I love him, and that he'll have a place in my heart. Sort of like Ichigo does, you know? It's hard to explain. I love so many people. But I love Ling the most, and I want to marry him as soon we we're both of age. Well, when *I* get to be of age, since he already is in his country.
The Relief Society meeting was a lot of fun. Sanji catered like he promised he would, and so many people brought snacks and desserts and appetizers! I was so stuffed. Even Ling got full! He's so cute when he's like that, hee hee! One of Sanji's crewmates joined too, a guy with spiky green hair. He really likes to fight. I watched him and Sanji have a scuffle, but some girl named Nami showed up and took them both out with one blow. She reminds me a lot of Tatsuki.
Then we moved everything into the new apartment. I left most of the food behind for Ed and Al, since I told them they could have the old place for the rest of the month. Why not? The rent is paid up until the 30th, and I think they could use it. Al has a gigai, now! I sort of miss the armor, because it was really cute. But I finally got to see Al's face, and I got to see him smile and blush and get freaked out when Yuna's dog spirit tried to tear Ed's arm off (poor Ed!).
That night, Ling told me that he found a way to fix Tsubaki. I couldn't believe it! And then last night, we finally did it. It was sort of scary, because the person who could fix it (his name is Lezard) has a tower, and he warned Ling that there were some things there that would make me really uncomfortable so it would be best if I was drugged and unconscious. I was nervous about that, and felt really vulnerable. Ling promised me that he would watch over me the whole time, though, until I woke up again. Then I felt better! I guess I really trust him, huh? So I drank some tea that made me fall asleep, and when I woke up, I was on the couch, and suddenly I was whole again. (Sado is so nice, he said I was always whole. I like him!) Then I met Lezard and Ling, who were drinking tea and waiting for me to wake up.
It's weird...he seemed so nice. But now they're saying he's a Syndicate person on the radio and did something with zombies. I don't know if I believe that. I didn't see any reports that mentioned him. Did I miss something?
Anyway (wow this is getting long!) we talked and said good night, and Ling and I laid awake for a while talking about what it would be like in the future when we have kids. It was cute. He'd be such a wonderful dad! Hee hee, he's worried that he's getting fat. I'd love him if he couldn't fit through the door, really, but I suppose the two of us should go outside and do things more often. I wonder...is that why he ate the cabbage? Is he trying to cut back on calories? I suppose I could lighten up on the sweet bean paste in my cooking and use more vegetables.
That's all for now, I think. Me, Uryuu, and Sado are going to train together, I'm looking forward to that. chaos is saying that he has some Gnosis problems in his world, so I'd better pay close attention. Ling-san's going to be down any minute anyway. I took a peek at his diary. I didn't mean to look too closely, just flip the pages and bring him in out of the cold. But then I saw the koi, and then I saw me... He's a brilliant artist. His works are so pretty.
Love, Orihime
(P.S. Maybe I'll draw something here too!) |
