Hello and Goodbye

A/n: Hello Minna-san. I am so sorry for not updating in over three months! I have a valid reason though. I was ill and in the hospital with a broken ankle, and lost my desire to write. But no need to worry I'm back on track with my stories, and am updating today~

"Don't go!" Toshirou turned around to meet the misting eyes of his lover.

"Don't go Toshirou…." Karin called out to him as the gate to the Senkaimon opened with a blinding white light.

Teal eyes met Onyx ones. He reached for her, then changing his mind, and pulled his hand back. He opened his mouth to speak, as a lump formed in his throat. He turned away from her and stepped into the light.

"I'm sorry Karin it's not possible for us…."

Karin's eyes watered as she saw him leave her. She stood there until the last bit of it left Karakura. Only then she let her tears slip from her eyes. Standing up abruptly she ran, and ran far away, just wanting to escape from this once again.

She pulled her legs close to her chest as sobs wracked her frame. The furious rain pounded the ground , splattering everything around, soaking it with mud.

I pulled away to face the pain
I close my eyes and drift away

Slowly, she leaned against the wall, dragging herself . She didn't know where she was going, simply wandering about the streets of Karakura in the hard rain.

And I will wander until the end of time
Torn away from you

He wasn't going to come back for her this time. He was leaving her and moving on. He was her superior, and she had no reason to hold him back.

She dropped to her knees, splashing murky water around her.

He was done with her.

Tears streamed down her cheeks, although she felt nothing, as she was already turning numb.

She screamed for the longest moment, leaving her throat raw. "Toshirou!"

My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us from sorrow's hold
Over my heart

Toshirou was slumped at his desk, Rangiku noticed. She felt terrible for her Taichou. Ever since her had returned from his mission, he had been a wreck. He wasn't even bothering her about not doing her work.

The following days and weeks were nothing but a blur to him. He had lost a large part of himself and he didn't seem to care about much anymore.

I can't go on living this way
I can't go back the way I came

He sighed for the umpteenth time today. He missed her. Her scent, her presence, and her being. But they couldn't be. They were too different. She was alive, and he a soul. It would never work.

Chained to this fear
That I will never find the way
to heal my soul

He got up from his desk, startling Rangiku, who was actually doing her work for once. He left the office, taking a walk around the barracks, aimlessly.

And I will wander until the end of the time

Half alive without you

Yuzu stood at the door of her sister's room. Seeing her sister so sad was breaking her heart. Karin refused to do anything, she even rejected soccer games with her friends. She was nothing but a mere shell of her former self.

My heart is broken
Sweet sleep, my dark angel
Deliver us

Karin looked out of her window sullenly, wishing that his calming presence was here. She shook her head, clearing such thoughts from her mind. He was done with her, and she should get over him immediately.

Change
Open your eyes to the light
I denied it all so long

Toshirou was sitting on top of the roof of his barracks, staring up at the moon. It ws eerie how much it reminded him of Karin. A mysterious light that he needed. A light containing so much beauty.

"Karin….." He whispered to himself. "I really miss you."

Oh so long
Say goodbye, goodbye

Karin whispered to the night sky, still thinking of him, praying he'd return, just once. "I miss you Toshirou…"

A/N: I promise I'll write a fluffy one next time~ I probably don't deserve it, but could you review to tell me if my writing is still good? Please?
