"What were you and Ishida-kun talking about?" Tatsuki asked.
|
" He was just wondering why I was here before he was ." Hoshi said, knowing the both of them had to tell Ichigo about being followed. She didn't want anything bad happen to Tatsuki.
|
"Alright," Tatsuki said, seeing that Hoshi was fighting with something. She wondered what it was all about, but would let her work through it.
|
The three talked a little bit more before the bell rang. Hoshi got up and headed to class. Sitting down, she got her homework and started taking notes of the lecture.
|
Tatsuki got her homework out and handed it in before she started taking notes. While her body was on autopilot, she couldn't help thinking about keeping the information of her and Hoshi away from Ichigo.
|
The bell rang for lunch and Hoshi got her lunch out. She waited for Ichigo and Tatsuki. She hoped that Tatsuki would tell Ichigo too.She trusted that he wouldn't over react when she told him.
|
Tatsuki heard the bell for lunch ring and made up her mind before silently nodding to Hoshi, hoping that she understood the message. The only thing that she could do was hope that Ichigo didn't overreact to much. "Ichigo? I need to tell you something," she said once Hoshi was close enough to hear her.
|
Hoshi did understand what Tatsuki meant . " I need to tell you something too Ichigo." She said .
|
Ichigo waited for them to talk, knowing that if he pushed them that it would make whatever they were going to say harder.
|
" Both me and Tatsuki have been followed since Sunday afternoon. When we were at the park , I felt as if someone was watching us. " Hoshi said. She hoped telling Ichigo would prevent anyone from getting hurt.
|
"Followed?" Ichigo asked, wanting to make sure he heard right. If it was true, he didn't like the sound of it.
|
Hoshi nodded her head yes." We don't know why we are being followed either. Or who would follow us. " She knew that telling Ichigo was the right thing to do.
|
"She's telling the truth Ichigo. Both Hoshi and I have felt like we've been followed the last couple of days. We don't know why, but we suspect it might be a rogue shinigami or something along those lines," Tatsuki said.
|
Hoshi could tell Ichigo wasn't happy about hearing about this." I'm sorry we didn't say anything yesterday about this Ichigo." Hoshi said feeling guilty . She wondered if she should tell Rukia about this too.
|
"No, it's alright. I suspected something was up, but I knew you two would tell me if you felt like you had to. What do you think about talking to Rukia, Kisuke and Yoruichi after school? They might have some ideas," the orange-haired male said as he thought out loud.
|
" It sounds like a good idea to me. " Hoshi said hoping Tatsuki would think so too.
|
Tatsuki nodded. "It sounds like a good idea to me as well," she said. She hoped that whatever or whoever it was, that one of the three Ichigo mentioned would have an idea of what was going on.
|
They went up to the roof and ate thier lunches . Hoshi hoped that they would be able to find out what was going on. The bell rang and Hoshi and the others went back to class. The rest of the afternoon went quickly . Hoshi did get her homework done during study hall. At the end of the day she waited for Ichigo and Tatsuki , suddenly having the feeling that they might find out who was following them.
|
After the school bell rang for the end of the day, Tatsuki waited outside with Hoshi, both waiting for Ichigo. As the two girls waited, Tatsuki got the weirdest feeling that they would find out just who was following them.
Ichigo thanked Chad before seeing the taller male leave and grinned lightly, glad that Chad was willing to help if they needed it. He stepped out of the school doors and felt better as most of the stress melted off of him. He had finished his homework early and wondered if Kisuke had found any leads on Asami. Once he saw Tatsuki and Hoshi, he waved towards them and headed to where they were standing. |
Hoshi waved back to Ichigo. She had the feeling that even when they did find out who was following them, she knew that the fight was far from over.
|
Ichigo walked to where Tatsuki and Hoshi were waiting for him. "Sorry about that," Ichigo said as he then asked them if they were ready to go.
|
" I'm ready. " Hoshi said. She had messaged her dad that she was going to be with Ichigo and Tatsuki after school.
|
"Same here," Tatsuki said.
|
Hoshi kept her guard up as they walked towards Urahara's . She didn't sense anyone , but she knew that there still could be someone following them.
|
Ichigo kept his senses alert as they walked towards Urahara's shop. Once they got inside, he noticed that both Tatsuki and Hoshi relaxed just a bit.
