Your POV

I gently laid Grimmjow down on the top of a pillar far away from the fighting. "Idiot....You're too reckless."

"Why.." he said quietly.

"Huh? Whaddya mean, 'why?'"

"Why'd ya save me? I'm not important to you....If I'm weak I deserve to die."

"Shut up. If you keep talking you'll waste your energy and die. I don't hate you...... But..." I paused to think...How will I say this without being entirely awkward? "W-well you're not terrible! And you're not weak, you're still alive, so use it as a chance to get stronger!"

"Heh...you like me." He grinned sheepishly before groaning in pain.

"S-shut up! No I don't!" I felt my face burning slightly. "C-come on...I just wanted to heal you....Please don't make this difficult."

"You don't ha-"

"What did I just say?!" I stared in his eyes and he shut up. "Good." I pulled out some stuff from my pocket and cleaned up his wounds before bandaging him and injecting a healing serum in his arm.

"You should be good to go...The serum will take affect shortly." I told him, looking away.

He groaned sitting up, swinging his arms to the side, testing his movements. I watched from the corner of my eye until he looked back at me, I jerked back to the opposite direction so much I fell off the pillar.

"Tch, look who's the idiot now, second Espada." I looked up and he was smirking down at me, his hand in mine so I wouldn't fall.

"S-Shut up! Just help me up..." I looked down at the ground, embarrassed...I've never felt so pathetic in my life.

"Right right, of course.." He pulled my up, laughing quietly. "Well at least we're even now..." He rubbed the back of his neck, slightly looking to the side.

"Yeah...thanks..."

"W-well I'm gonna go change then...." he started walking back to the edge. I grabbed his wrist before he was able to leave and he looked back at me.

"Wait, Grimmjow..." I said, looking to the floor.

"What?" He turned around to face me.

"A-are you sure you're okay?"

"What's this? You're worried about me?" He smirked and I slapped him.

"I am asking you a serious question so take it seriously, will you?!"

"S-sorry! Yes, I'm fine. Thank you." He froze before laughing.

"W-what's so funny?!"

"Heh, it's not you, I just never said thank you before....or was ever this awkward...." He mumbled the last part, looking to the side with light pink dusting his cheeks.

"You're blushing." I smirked at him.

"N-No I'm not! You're blushing!" I probably was, but...oh well.

"Trying to change the subject, are we?"

"Tch! I'm leaving!"

"NEVER LETTING THAT GO BY THE WAY!!!" I called after him, still laughing after he left.

Maybe Grimmjow was...better than 'not terrible'...
