Chapter 1

It was already eight at night when Ryuken turned his attention from his paperwork to the window in his office. He could help but to think about her. The way she laughed, the way she smiled when she looked at him. He knew it was wrong to be think about her in such a manner. Yet he couldn't resist being attracted to her. She was funny, smart, kind and had a certain spark that caught his eye. What disgusted him the most was the fact that they only met about five weeks ago and here he was sitting at his desk acting like some hormonal teenage boy who has his first crush. However it did make his day whenever she had to stop by his office or when they would accidently bump into each other in the halls and yet at the same time he hated seeing her since it caused him nothing but a headache. He constantly had a internal battle with himself thanks to her. Ryuken brought his attention back to his work, hoping it would keep his mind off of her.

That's all he ever did was work, he practically lived at in his office. He only went home to shower and sleep. It's not like he had anything to look forward to when he got there. His wife gone, Uryu and him still didn't talk much, maybe twenty words a week to each other. All he had was his work and he now started to hate it thanks to her. About an hour later Ryuken decided to call it a night and head for home.

He figured since it was a Friday night Uryu wouldn't be home until at least one in the morning from hanging out with that Kurosaki kid. He couldn't believe that Uryu already started his last year of high school. As he made it home he noticed that the lights were on. Uryu is home early. He thought as he opened the front door. As he entered the door he heard two voices. He knew one belong to his son, but the second voice caused his heart to beat faster.

What the hell is she doing here? Ryuken thought standing at the entrance to the living room near the stair case. He couldn't believe the one person he didn't want to see was in his house. Ryuken look over at the girl who was standing next to his son in front of the TV. He noticed she was still wearing her high school uniform.

Uryu knew his father was home since he could sense reiryoku. He only came home to grab a movie to watch over at Ichigo's house. "I think we should watch a scary movie. Everyone likes scary movies, right?" Uryu's female friend asked. "How about this one?" Uryu asked picking a movie from a shelf near the TV. "Yeah. Nothing beats a dead girl trying to kill everyone." She said giggling.

"Didn't except to find you home this early?"

Uryu frowned as he turned around to face his father. However hearing the deep voice caused Uryu's friend to jump a little as she turned around to face the owner of it. "I'm home early that's funny. I should be saying the same thing to you." Uryu said.

"Director Ishida?"

There's that smile again...I need a smoke Ryuken thought keeping his stoic face.

Uryu raised his left eyebrow at his female friend "You know him?" "Yeah. I volunteer at the hospital after school three times a week. Don't you remember me telling you along with everyone else that I couldn't hang out with you guys on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday because of that." She said looking Ishida. "No." "Well maybe you weren't there when I told everyone else." She said trying to remember if he was present when she told everyone after school the Friday before she started.

"Haru, I didn't know you were acquainted with Uryu." Ryuken said bring her out of her thoughts. This is even worse, she's friends with my son...what the hell am I going to do!? He thought wanting to smack himself in the face.

"Yeah, we have two class together." She said thinking So, there are two Ishida's. Small Ishida and Big Ishida. How cute.

"I see. Try not to make too much noise." Ryuken said as he started to walk up the stairs.

"I'll see you later Director Ishida." Haru called out to the man. Ryuken glanced at her for a second, but otherwise ignored her as he continued upstairs.

"I can't believe Director Ishida is your older brother, Uryu." Haru whispered.

"What?! He is my father." Ishida said frowning a little at the fact that Haru could mistakes his father as his brother. "Oh." was all she said feeling slightly embarrassed not realizing how old that man actually was. That makes a little more sense. I wonder how old he actually is? Haru thought. "Come on. Let's get back before Ichigo breaks down my door." Ishida said heading towards the front door. Haru followed right behind him. Ryuken was upstairs in the shower when he knew his son and Haru left. Damn her... It's bad enough I have to see her at work, but now at my own house. Can I not escape her? He thought running his right hand through his wet hair. Ever since the first time they met he took instantly took an interest in her.

Flashback:

"Come in." Ryuken said after he heard a knock on his office door. The door opened and walk in a girl. Ryuken could tell by her uniform that she was a volunteer at the hospital. All volunteers were given a uniform that way they're were easier to point out. The female's uniforms look kind of like the typical white nurse's dress, but instead of white they were blue. As she walk closer to his desk he got a better look at her. She was shorter then him by a good head and was a healthy weight for her age. Her long black hair that reach just above her butt and her bangs complimented her face well. And from what he could tell there wasn't anything spiritually special about her.

"Sorry to bother you but Nurse Suki would like you to look this over and sign it." She said handing him the piece of paper. Ryuken took the paper and quickly read over it. He sign it before he handed it back to her. "Thank you." She said with a smile. "It's no problem." Ryuken said staring at her. He couldn't believe his heart was racing. Not since his wife passed away has anyone captivated him with a simple smile and look . Just then the door flew open and there stood a very angry nurse. "Director Ishida what did I say about your smoking! You can smell the smoke from down the hall! Haru open the window!" The nurse told the girl. Her name is Haru. I need to remember that so I look up her file later. Ryuken thought watching the girl walk across the room.

"STOP smoking in the hospital Director Ishida!!!" the nurse screamed slamming the door shut. Haru tried to suppress her laughter, but she couldn't do it. "Is something amusing?" Ryuken asked. "Sorry, but that was to funny." "What's your last name?" He asked causing her to stop laughing . "Yamada. "Well, Ms. Yamada are you busy because I would like you to organize some paperwork for me?" He asked wanting to keep her around. "Just let me to return this back to Nurse Suki and I'll be right back. "

End of Flashback

Ishida and Haru made it to Ichigo's home and knock on the door. Ichigo answered the door letting in Ishida and Haru. "That took forever. So, what movie did you guys pick?" Ichigo asked as they made their way to the living room. Chad, Rukia were sitting in chairs and Orihime was sitting on the couch. "We picked out The Grudge." Haru said sitting down on the couch. Haru was really happy that Ichigo and everyone let her hang out with them since they only met about six weeks ago. She wasn't really good at making friends since she was kind of shy around new people.

Flashback:

Haru was looking for a place to eat her lunch. She hated the first day of school, but she even hated it more when it was the first day of school at a new school. She saw an empty table and decided to sit down. "Why are you sitting at our table?"

Haru turned her head to face person that was talking to her. "I didn't know this was your table." Haru said looking at a four of boys. "Well, it is. So move."

"Okay, but you don't have to be so mean." Haru said standing up. "Mean? I'll show you mean." One of the boys said grabbing Haru by the arm. "Hey, Let go!" Haru yelled trying to get her arm back. "It's not like you can stop me." The boy said laughing at her.

"But I can." and with that the boy grabbing her was on the ground.

Haru looked at orange hair boy who just punched the other boy in the face. "Are you okay?" He asked. "Yeah."

"You can sit with us." Haru saw that the voice belong to a very short girl with black hair.

End of Flashback

Ever since that Monday's lunch she pretty much hung out with them. Haru thought it was nice of them to invite her to hang out with them. However she did find it odd how they sometimes would randomly ditch her or leave school. The first time this happen they are left her at the park by herself. She was a little hurt when they all left at once, she figured that they didn't like her, but the next day at school Orihime explained that they all have the same job and out of nowhere they could be called into work and apologized for leaving her like that.

"That movie is so lame." Ichigo whined."Are you scared?" Ishida said smirking a little. "Yeah, right. You're the one that's going to be scared." Ichigo said sticking his tongue out at Ishida. "Just put the damn movie." Rukia said. "Fine." Ichigo said putting in the movie since he did not want to get hit by Rukia.

"Uryu, Have any ideas for our project yet?" Haru asked. She was also happy to have Ishida as her science partner. "I'm still thinking. Tornadoes are such a random project to have." He replied back. "Don't worry I'm sure we can think of something. Oh, whose house do you want to do the project at?" She asked. "Mine that way we don't have to worry about anyone bothering us." He answered.

"Shh, the movie is starting." Ichigo said sitting in between Orihime and Haru.

Sometime later the movie finished and everyone called it a night. Ishida walked Haru home since it was pretty late. "Hey, tomorrow around noon stop by my house and we can get started on the project." Ishida said before Haru walk into her house.

"Okay. Night Uryu." Haru said before she shut the door.

It was already the next day when Haru and Uryu were working on their project at Ishida's house. Haru realized that it was almost dinner time and decided it was time to leave. She made it home and half way through dinner she remember that she forgot her notebook on Ishida's kitchen table. After dinner was finished she made her way back over to Ishida's and house and knocked on the door.

The door opened and Haru was surprised to see Director Ishida and not Uryu. "Can I help you?" Ryuken asked. He froze for a second when he realized it was Haru however he quickly regained his composure. He saw she was wearing jeans and a red jacket with a white tank top underneath. From some reason Haru couldn't help, but feel nervous around him. "Good evening Director Ishida, is Uryu home?"

"No, he left about two hours. Is there a reason you need him?" He asked. He could tell by her face she wanted to say something else. "Oh, it's just that..I forgot my notebook here. That's all. I can came back later. Sorry for bothering you. " Haru said trying to not to sound nervous. She turned around fast and started to walk off.

"Where are you going?" He called out to her. Haru stop and looked at him. "You can come inside and get your book."

"Thank you so much." Haru said walking over to him.

Haru took a good look at him and had to admit he was really good looking. "I assume you know where your book is." He said as he shut the door behind them. "Yes, it's on the kitchen table."

"Stay here while I get it." He told her. A minute later he returned. "This it?" He asked. "Yes." She said nodding her head. He held the book out for her to grab. Haru quickly reached for the book and accidently bushed her left hand against his right hand. The touch did not go unnoticed by him. "Thank you so much. It would have sucked if I had to wait until tomorrow to start on the project." She said. Sadly, Haru didn't have a very good grip on the notebook and it slipped out of her hand. This caused the papers and pencil that were inside the notebook fell to the ground. She quickly bent down to pick everything up. Ryuken also squatted down to help her. Haru wasn't pay attention and reach for the same piece of paper as Ryuken and their hands accidently touch causing Haru to turn a shade of pink. "Sorry." She mumbled. She picked up the notebook and saw that the pencil rolled behind her. She walk over and bent over to grab it. Ryuken watched her and couldn't resist the urge to let his gaze drop to her backside. He could feel his lust rise a little. After picking up the pencil she turned to him. "Sorry, I can sometimes be a little clumsy." She said feeling like a idiot. "Here" He said handing her the rest of her papers. "Thank you. Well, I better get going. Thank you again." Haru said. She tells me thank you a lot when I haven't even given her a good reason to be thankful yet He thought lecherously. Okay, time for her to leave and I need a smoke. He thought opening the front door. It amazed him how he was able to keep his cool when he was so conflicted inside.

Ryuken walked her out of the house. "Thank you again." Haru said before she started to walk home. He stood there for a good minute watching her walk way.

I can't believe I'm checking her out. Am I that lonely? However she does look more mature when she isn't in her school uniform...great now I'm making excuses, what the hell is wrong with me? She's in high school and a friend of my son... I really need a smoke Ryuken thought as he heading back inside the house.

Around eight at night the next day Haru was once again over at Ishida's house working on their project. They were sitting at the kitchen table again. "I bet we going to get an A+ on the project." Haru said watching Ishida type away on his laptop.

For the project they had to make a power point and a demonstration. They already had the demonstration part done and were currently working on their power point. Ishida stopped typing when he sensed a Hollow nearby."I'll be right back. So, just stay here and take over for me." Uryu said running out the door. Haru still found it odd how Ishida and everyone else just took off like that, however she really didn't care enough to question it. She moved into the Uryu's seat and began typing away.

"Where's Uryu?" A deep voice asked behind her.

Hearing the voice caused Haru to jump out of her seat causing her to trip over her own feet and land on her butt. She quickly look up and saw Director Ishida.

"Are you okay?" Ryuken asked walking over to her. He would have help her off the ground, but he knew touching her would cause him to continue touching her until there wasn't an inch of skin left unexplored by his hands. "Yes. You just scared me." She said standing back up. I'm so glad that I'm not wearing a skirt or I would have flashed him.

"Where's Uryu?" He asked again. "I don't know. He said he was coming right back." She said looking at the time on the computer. Holy crap it's all ready ten. He been gone for an hour. How did I not realize that. I must have been really into making that power point.

"I'm sorry I didn't realize how late it was just let me save this and I'll be on my way." Haru said sticking a flash drive into the computer.

"It's fine. You can stay and finish it. What are you guys working on anyways?" He asked. For some reason he didn't want her to leave yet. "Oh, Ishida hasn't told you yet?"

"We don't talk much."

I wonder why that is? She thought. "It's just a project on tornadoes for our science class ."

"Uryu is making you do all the work." He stated. "Not at all. I'm just finishing the other half of the power point." She said smiling. Damn that smile of hers.

"Well, just smack him if he's not doing his share. Do you want anything to drink?" Ryuken asked as he headed for the refrigerator.

"Sake."

He stopped and look at her. Ryuken raised his left eyebrow "I don't think you are old enough." Sadly..

"I know, still two years away. I was kidding anyway. I just think it's funny how adults react when you tell them stuff like that. I'm not thirsting, Thank you though." She said giggling. Of course she has to be eighteen just my luck but at least now I'm not a super pervert. Like that makes up for the fact she still in high school He thought as he watched her laugh. "It's not nice to tease your elders." He said. "Yeah, but a little humor never hurt anyone."

"I suppose so." Ryuken said as he opened the refrigerator. "When did you turn eighteen?" He asked. "About a weeks ago."

Damn it, I missed her birtday. I wonder if it's to late to give her a gift. He thought. Haru knew she shouldn't stay any longer for it would be rude. She quickly saved to the flashed drive and headed for the front door. "See you later Director Ishida." Haru said. He didn't say anything to her as she left. Ryuken enjoyed Haru company and wanted her to stay a little bit longer, but he knew it wouldn't be right to ask.

Haru shut the front door when she heard her name being called. "Haru!" She knew the voice belong to Uryu. "I'm sorry for coming back so late." He said walking over to her. "Don't worry about it, but you better have a good reason."

Does saving people lives count as a good reason He thought.

"My job kept me longer than I expected it too. If you want we can finish the project right now." He offered. "It's okay. I'll finish it up at my house besides I don't want Director Ishida to think I'm living at his house." She said. "Ryuken is home." Ishida said frowning. So that's his first name Ryuken. She thought while saying "Yeah." "He didn't say anything to offend you did he?" He asked. "Nope." "Are you sure you want to finish the project by yourself?"

"I got it besides you did most of the work anyways." "Well okay, but let me walk you home at least." He said. "But of course my good sir. A lady of my virtue should escorted home at this hour." She said sounding goofing. Uryu just smiled at her weirdness.

Ryuken was smoking near his bedroom window looking at the moon when he heard Ishida walk through the front door. What hell am I going to do? I like seeing her and being around her, but I know I shouldn't. I know I shouldn't look at her in such a way, but at least she is eighteen..... for god sakes she is still in high school. She probably has a boyfriend already and besides what would she want with an old guy like me. Plus, Uryu would never talk to me again if he knew I was infatuated with one of his friends who is the same age as him.

Ryuken just sighed as put his cigarette out.
