Bleach: Grimmjow X Scratch

Scratch screamed as she woke up from her nightmare. She looked around as she breathed heavily.

Scratch: It was just a dream...

Suddenly, Grimmjow ran into her room.

Grimmjow: WHAT HAPPENED?!?! ARE YOU OKAY?!?!?!?!

Scratch: I'm fine...just a nightmare...

Grimmjow: Another?

She nodded as her bangs fell in front of her face. Grimmjow silently signed. He hated to see her hide her tears. Even though she told everyone she couldn't cry anymore. He sat on her bed and pulled her into a warm embrace.

Scratch: Grimmjow?

Grimmjow: I want you to know, that you can cry around me. And don't worry about those scientist getting a hold of you. I'll protect you from them. I promise.

Scratch: Grimmjow...

Her heart began to beat faster as she snuggled deeper into his chest.

Scratch: Thank you...

She was able to say till she fell asleep.
