17 Day off (2/2)

”You do?”

”Yes, you want me to start your training today but you're just embarrassed to ask”

”eh?!”

'I haven't fallen for a blockhead, have I?'

Rangiku looked dumbfounded as she looked at Itsuki who seemed really sure of himself.

”We will properly start tomorrow as its getting quite late, I'll drop you off to your dormitory”

The walk back was quiet with Itsuki not being a talker and Rangiku looking despondent, with her arms flailing about and a hunched back.

”We're here, I'll see you tomorrow, come to training ground ## after class”

Rangiku just gave a grunt as a response as she started making her way towards her dorm

”Rangiku”

Hearing her name she turned around only to feel a soft sensation on her forehead, but before she could think Itsuki was back in his position, putting his mask back on to cover his blush and a smirk. The only change you could see were his ears which had turned red.

”We will see what the future holds”

After saying these words Itsuki seemingly disappeared as he shunpoed away. Rangiku could be seen gob smacked as her mouth was left wide open, enough to fit a whole egg inside. Remembering what happened, she straightened her back as her face flushed red and a smile crept on her face.

She ran to her room and jumped on her bed squealing in delight. Yuroe already there, realised that it must've gone well and felt happy for a friend. But before she could ask her anything her friend shot up as if she realised something.

'He played me. He was capable of that. That son of a…'

As Rangiku was slowly pulled into her own thoughts a dark baleful aura surrounded her scaring her roommate.

Itsuki was oblivious to this as he merrily made his way home. Gin was surprised at his sudden jolly mood and started questioning him but Itsuki just smiled in response. Irritated by his friend's attitude Gin went off to meditate with the intent on later finding out.

Itsuki did the same as he thought about what happened today. He didn't want to go in a relationship this early on as he still felt he was too weak. He just wanted to get strong enough to protect his close ones, that's when he will think about it.
