"Raven your home!" Yuzu screamed as she squeezed the life out of Raven with her famous bone breaking hugs.

"It's good to see you two Yuzu, and what about you Karin? Wanna a hug"

"Nahh but welcome back anyway"

"Heh thanks"/p

"MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER IS HOME!" Raven barely managed to dodge Isshin Kurosaki's hug and laughed when he went face first into the wall

"It's nice to see you again Isshin"

"Why do you never call me dad Raven that hurts my heart" he whined

"I'm sure you'll live" Raven Jaeg is the sort of adopted daughter of Isshin Kurosaki, he didn't actually adopt her but he always thought of her as a daughter. Both Isshin and his wife Masaki stumbled upon Raven when she was in an alley covered in blood, so she became like family to them.

"Ichigo come downstairs we have a family member here!" Yuzu yelled, they heard the door open then closed and footsteps heading in their direction.

"Hey who is it?" Ichigo stopped when he saw the familiar light Blonde and blue streaked hair and striking blue and red eyes. "Heh welcome back Raven"

"Glad to be back Ichigo"

"Ichigo who were you talking to upstairs I heard voices" Yuzu asked, Ichigo stiffened then relaxed slightly

"Oh ahh it was nothing just having trouble with homework he he"

"Oh ok, well while I get dinner ready why don't you take Raven to her room"

"I know where it is Yuzu"

"Don't worry about it Raven just come on" Raven nodded and followed the orange haired boy up the stairs "So how was England"

"It was raining season so I really couldn't go outside but my uncle kept me occupied along with a couple of friends, so how have you been"

"Oh umm I have been pretty good, schools been fun but Orihime keeps asking when you were getting back"

"Well don't you worry you don't have to deal with that anymore" Raven giggled, she could have sworn she saw a tint of pink grace Ichigo's cheek

"He yeah thanks" they stopped at Raven's door and allowed her to enter "So ahh I shall see you at dinner"

"Nahh I ate at the airport so I'm gonna sleep"

"Ok so I'll see you tomorrow"

"Yeah goodnight" Ichigo gave her a slight nod and headed to the dining room, Raven crashed on her bed and closed her eyes in thought "I could sense his spiritual pressure has grown, I could sense it from the other end of Karakura…and there was another spiritual pressure in his room but very faint…what have you been doing Ichigo" Raven eventually fell asleep without realising a certain orange haired person was standing beside her.

"Welcome back…Raven"
