Moments Of (Love) Summer
A/N: This is because Dashita Tichou had requested for me to write about the things that Rukia did in the full year she got to have a vacation with Ichigo. Yes, only him. No one else, because obviously they are being paired in this story ;D. It's only a collection of moments and happiness, not every single week. They would take 43 chapters, no matter how small. Sorry!
~Let Your Imagination Run Wild
Week 3 (after the whole incident is done with before she goes back to SS)
"Oi! Ichigo! You promised you would take me to where the waters are!" Rukia stood over the sleeping teenager and shook him fiercely awake. He then grunted and opened one of his eyes to see that Rukia's face is way too close to his.
"RUKIA?" He sat up suddenly, but ended up banging his head against Rukia's forehead. They both flinched at the pain and held their heads trying to soothe it. After Ichigo finally dressed up to go to the beach, he then followed Rukia downstairs to the dining hall.
"ICHIGO!" His father bellowed while sitting at his place at the table.
"I'm going to the beach with Rukia." He tried not to react when his family gaped and thought, "Only Rukia?"
He couldn't stand the stares, so he sat up abruptly from his breakfast and grabbed Rukia's hand and dragged her to his motorcycle. He gunned up the engines, and checking to make sure Rukia was safely behind him holding on to his stomach, he zoomed through the streets. It was already 12'o clock by the time they got to the nearest beach, and when Rukia looked around happily, he just stared at her.
"11 more months with her, then she leaves for who knows when.." It wasn't the time for drowning in sorrow, but it was time for fun with the girl he treasures. He got up the courage to walk up to her dancing in the waves and held onto her arms.
"Ichigo?" She seemed confused at the gesture and decided to wait patiently for him to explain himself.
"You are going to come visit after your break right? Please do. Don't leave me alone.." He realized that he was about to cry, and twisted his face away. Rukia didn't know what to do when men were sad, so she did the thing Orihime did to Ushida when he was sad.
So, she leaned in and kissed his lips quickly and said, "Are you happy now?" Smiling like she usually does, she turns away from him and looks at the lowering sun.
"Y-Yeah..?" He drops his other arm and keeps his arm on Rukia's shoulder while pulling her close to him. That day ended quite well, but they didn't know how short their time was.
