The sun beat down on Rukia Kuchiki as she walked slowly to the corner store for milk. She hated going there because the old man would always look at her "improperly". Then there were the old mans daughters, about her age, who were madly jealous of her. Plus it just tore her away from whatever she was doing. Byakuya always interrupting her mid-thought yelling "Were out of milk" which is code for go get some more. It pissed her off.
The little bell on the door rung as she stepped in the cramped store. She wished it hadn't rung.
"Hello Ms. Kuchiki" The old man grinned devilishly
"Hi" Rukia said swiftly walking past him. She went straight to the back where the milk was. As she bent down for the milk she noticed one of the old mans daughters, Etsu, gawking at something. She leaned closer to get a better view and saw a orange haired boy sweeping up the back porch. He seemed to have a permanent scowl on his face like he was mad at the world.
So that's whose she's drooling over. Well now I know why, he's not wearing a shirt.
Rukia found it hard to tear her eye's away. Shaking off the thought she bent back down to grab the milk when she felt hands in and "improper place". Before she could give the old man a good kick, someone had done it for her. The old man laid on the floor with the biggest shoe print down his face. Rukia looked up to see the orange haired boy staring down at her. She found her eyes wondering over his muscles until he spoke.
"Filthy old man" He looked at her "Sorry about him…he hasn't had any female attention since the 30's" He smirked, the scowl still on his face "Kurosaki Ichigo" he put out his hand and Rukia shook it hesitantly.
"Kuchiki Rukia"
"Nice meeting you Ms.Kuchiki but I have to get back to work"
"O-okay" she felt flustered just looking at him. He turned to walk away but stopped.
"Oh, and that milk is on the house" he winked and walked out the back door
Rukia held the milk to her chest as she walked back home. Her face was shaded a slight pink as she thought about Ichigo. Something told her she would want to go for milk more often.
