You, Renji and Rukia had been a dynamic trio since childhood. Although Renji was playful and acted like quite the jerk, he was actually just burying the unspoken feelings he had for you. But you were quite the dunce, always oblivious to everything. But that was what he liked about you. You were a kind and pure soul, and a total beauty. Well, just everything he had ever wanted in a woman. But ever since childhood, you were always the weakest out of the three. You were sickly and frail, causing the two to always frantically worry about you.

“So.. I’m.. tryna..” Renji mumbled, trying to get his point across without stumbling over his words every two seconds. He groans annoyedly, before running his hand through his hair in frustration. His entire face was flushed from the embarrassment that was eating him whole. Despite his efforts, you still had that oblivious look on your face. It was infuriatingly cute, he thought. All he was trying to do was confess, but nothing seemed to be working out for him it seems.

Rukia stood at the side, shaking her head. That was a pure look of mock disappointment plastered on her face as she watched him nervously stutter like an illiterate fool.
