Otaku: Time for a sequel!~ And for the umpteenth time, the only bleach I own is the one for laundry! BLEACH is owned by Kubo Tite.

Ogichi: *reads script* Therapy? With his DAD?

Isshin: Why not? Why just be a good helper physically when there's time to get a degree to help people mentally?

Ichigo: If you ask perverted questions I'-

Isshin: I'm not Urahara. There's a reason why I'm the therapist and not him.

Ichigo: Still.

Otaku: Okay time to start le fic!~ Yes I put a time lapse cause I want to get on with the sequel and let your imagination go as far as most of the time lapse is concerned. Feel free to fill in what you imagine!~ 3...2...1...Action!


It's been…a month? I hate the days Ichigo is in school. But, hey, eating hollows in hell for breakfast and lunch isn't so bad either. Not to mention gainin' a few pounds of muscle back. Even if it means cleanin' in the shop with...I gulped. Renji and Grimmjow. Why am I stuck with guys fuckin' taller than me? And I thought Ichigo laughs at me a lot. Well, I was fuckin' wrong. These guys broke the scale. Everytime I was done cleanin' shit, one of them goes "Not bad for a bony ass" and slaps my ass with some boat paddle. Why would a shopkeeper need a boat paddle of all things? I could never forget the time Grimmjow slapped his towel on the back of my neck. If he had hit any harder, I would've cried in pain and had a blue neck. Everytime I got harassed by the two, Yorouichi threatens to scratch them. Great. A female shinigami is savin' my ass. Then again, she always takes me outside to paint my nails on my hands and feet. To be honest, I would do fuckin' anything to avoid those two giants anyday, even if it was girly shit.

Though that changed one day when Rangiku, Yachiru, and some girly shinigami women arrived. Toshiro and I were facing hell in this game of dress up that one day. To top it off, by the time the game was over, Ichigo was there to pick me up. Don't ask what dress I was wearin'. Wouldn't make a difference since it made 'im laugh anyway. Though, he's still standin'. Rangiku, Yorouichi, Orihime, and her midget lover kept commenting on how cute I looked in it. Grimmjow and Renji were laugin' their asses off. I couldn't take this feeling. I feel like I want to cry and run away and I was blushing a very deep blue. What…is this feeling called? I practically ran outside the shop, not botherin' to hear Ichigo shoutin' my name. I ran up to his home, takin' the shortcut leading to Ichigo's bedroom. Good thing he forgot to lock it. I ran inside the bathroom to remove all this shit off me. Took me a great fifteen minutes to yank off the dress, ribbons, makeup, and all that shit. That left me in my polka-dooted boxers. When will I fuckin' go back? I sat down in front of the bathroom door, a hand on my face trying to erase what just happened from my mind. To top it of, I was bawling my eyes out and wrapping myself into a ball.

Suddenly, I heard a knock. "Shiro? You okay?"

Great. He's here. Okay, my ass. How dumb can he be? I spoke, "The hell do you want? Go back to laughin' with yer friends and all that shit."

"Look, Shiro-"

"Don't 'look, Shiro' me!"

"Look, I know you're embarassed about what happened! But, that doesn't mean you should hide yourself after only one humiliation! We've all had our first times! Besides, I know you ran away more than the fact you got embarassed! Is there a problem? Answer!"

I opened the door, opening it just enough for Ichigo ta see my face. I was even clenching my left fist. "I don't know why I ran. I just did. I felt a new feeling and it took over me. Anger, sadness, fear, it was a mix of these three. When I felt that feeling, I wanted to run away and hide, keeping that sadness to myself. The fact I saw you laughin' at me made me become even more depressed."

"That feeling you had…was embarassment. It happens to everyone, Shiro."

I closed my eyes halfway. "Promise…you won't laugh at me next time?"

"I promise. I should've known you would feel hurt cause…you know…"

"That I'm you?"

"A part of me to be exact. But, yeah. Anyways, it's time for you to do that therapy session with my dad."

I ran to his room and picked out some clothes from shoppin' with Grimmjow and Renji last Wednesday. By with them, I mean I was unconscious on Grimmjow's back and the two picked the clothes. I'm going to kill them for this. I said skinnys from the GUYS section, goddammit! Guess I can always lower them down slightly so my balls will stay in one piece, right? To top it off, they bought shirts in their size on purpose. One even said "I'm sexy and you know it." I knew Ichigo heard me hiss in disgust as I put them on. The shirt reached between my hips and knees in length, like some dress. "How about you wear one of my jeans? I'll go kill the two assholes," Ichigo said, leavin' the room.

I took one of his pants from his closet and put that one, taking off the girl one first. I kept the shirt though. I kind of liked what it said. I went downstairs and laid down on the couch. I have ta do this kind of thing everyday with Isshin. "Welcome back to the session! No need to explain what happened today since my son explained all about it when he came home. Any foreign emotion you learned today?" said Isshin, as he rolled around in his chair, holding on to the usual notebook he holds on to when writing down what I'm sayin'.

When did chairs have wheels? "I learned about embarassment being a mix of sad, anger, and fear. But, I never understood why it made me run home and cry by myself. Like, I wanted to escape."

"I see. Well, Shiro. No one likes being embarassed, to be honest. I've even had my share of embarassments but I don't want to go off from this session and talk about my life. Any idea on what made you run away? Something or things that triggered it?"

"Well, the girls commentin' and the guys laughin' kind of set it off."

"I see…"

"Guess I know what 'Dress up' means to women now."

"That's why you were in a dress?"

I nodded. "Anyways, you have a choice to make."

"Hn?"

"Do you want to stay in the human world and Urahara uses the hogyouku to make you live like a human and be with my son? Or, do you want to stay in the inner world?"

"Inner world. Cause Ichigo can always visit me and Zangetsu anytime. And…When he ages, I age too. I find the first choice complicated like my relationship with Ichigo. Fifty-fifty; could be a benefit or a curse. Besides, if I stay in the inner world…I'm always with Ichigo wherever he goes. Same with Zangetsu. Least he won't feel so lonely anymore when I come back."

"I see… Then let's conclude these sessions. Your training and diet made you grow physically. Even spending time with each person or two helped understand emotions clearly and your growth in using them. Sadly, you have four hours left to be in the human world until you have to go back. If I were you, I'd use that time left to the best advantage."

To be honest, I really have to thank everyone. Inoue and midget taught me about love and the many meanin's behind the word. Renji and Grimmjow taught me pain, humility, and anger levels. Yorouichi taught me how to be calm. Rangiku gave me…I gulped…sex ed. Don't worry. She only showed funky lookin' sex toys other than vibrator and what reactions occur when placed in the body. Yes. She used a manequinn to show it. Don't ask me how. I have no clue.

But, the one I have to thank the most…is Ichigo. He helped me go through all these fuckin' emotions when he comes back after 'is school 'nd all tha. He even gave pay back to Grimmjow and Renji whenever they went too fuckin' far. Whenever I was always in a "breakdown" or bad mood, he finds ways to calm me down. Whenever I cried-like only twice due to lack of emotional control- he pulls me to his warm embrace and brushes through my hair. He always told me that things will be alright and I just have to move on as time passes by. He even trains with me during the weekends. He does all this and still manages with school, his family time, it's mindblowin'! I can't even fuckin' do all that! The fact he can shows how strong he really is. I don't mean combat. That's the only thing I beat him in anyway. Heh heh…

Anyway, I ran to tell 'im that there's no time left. "What is this, Cinderella?"

"Who?"

"Nevermind. Come on! We only got three hours and a half left!"

"Where are we going?"

"It's a surprise." He said, blindfoldin' me and takin' me outside.

After running around and holding Ichigo's hand, I felt the footsteps stop. "Are we there yet?"

"Yep. You can take it off now."

Take what off? I was about to take off my shirt before Ichigo stopped me. "I meant your blindfold, Shiro. You can't strip here," he said, snickerin'.

"Could've told me tha, Ichigo."

"Yeah, yeah."

I proceeded taking off the cloth coverin' my eyes. I couldn't believe it. It looks like a place similar to that in Ichigo's memory bank. I mean, the place had rides, ferris wheel, an arcade. But, there wasn't really a lot of people here. Guess that means more fun fer us. "Whoa! Who knew?"

"What do you want to do, Shiro? Considering it's your last day here. Don't worry. I bought the passes so we won't get in trouble."

"How about…tha?" I said, pointing at some train-lookin' thing that's going in random loops.

"Roller coaster it is then," he said, running. "Race you there, Shiro!"

We ran to the line for the ride. After a ten minute wait, we got on the ride. Least I got to sit in the front with Ichigo. Though, I felt…nervous about the ride. They put some thing on the riders to prevent 'em from leavin' off the ride and gave some lecture about some safety crud. My hands were shaking as well as my legs. Suddenly, I felt a hand grabbin' mine. "Relax, Shiro. It's just a ride. No one gets hurt. I know it's your first time. It's okay. We all get scared. Even I was scared of going on giant rides like this one. You just have to face your fears sometimes."

That sort of helped me calm down. Didn't really stop me from screaming my lungs out, though. "Let's go again!"

"Maybe next time, Shiro. We still got other rides to go to. Not to mention the arcade."

Some reason, I felt like them happy small kids as I followed Ichigo to the next ride. I was a pole the size of Zangetsu's, but it had chairs attached to it for people to ride on. I saw it shootin' people up like a rocket. "That one? That's for the small kids. There's a huge one nearby."

He dragged me to an even bigger pole with attatched chairs. It was like five times taller that Zangetsu's pole. We rode on it. Wasn't really fun until it kept dropping us close to the ground at a fast speed. I was afraid we'd all hit the ground and destroy our feet. But, that wasn't the case. When it was over, I was holding on to Ichigo's shoulders as we went elsewhere. I don't feel like explainin' the rest. Let's just say, we went to virtual coaster rides, got some prizes from the arcade-mainly football* stuff-, and ate something humans call…cotton candy. Don't worry. I only ate couple of handfulls. Had I ate the whole bag, then it would've been a problem. The last thing we went to was the ferris wheel. After going on, I asked Ichigo how many minutes left. "Fifteen minutes."

"Whoa! I can see the whole place from up here! The people down there look as puny as ants!"

"You having fun, Shiro?"

"Eh? What do you mean? Of course I am! I've never really felt this…"

"Energetic?"

"No!" I said, moving closer to Ichigo, whispering in his ear. "Happy."

I moved to Ichigo's side, makin' the thing tilt a bit. "Easy, Shiro. And, I'm glad."

"Thank you."

"Huh?"

"For everything," I said, pulling Ichigo into what Rangiku told me, a kiss. To my surprise, he returned it back, holding on to me as I felt myself almost collapse onto Ichigo's body.

"Come on you two love birds. The ride's over."

We turned to see the worker open the jail-lookin' door letting us out of tha thing. I could hear the teenage girls snickerin' at us or making remarks like "cute" or "sexy". Not like I cared. They ain't getting' either of us.

As we left the place, we were approached by four shinigami. One of them said something like. "Kurosaki Ichigo. You and your hollow are ordered to come to seretei for by the commander himself for your arrest. Please come with us and keep the swords sheathed."

Why did I have the feeling this was gonna happen?


Otaku: Cut! Good job, guys!

Ogichi: A cliffhanger? Never knew you liked pissing people off.

Ichigo: Going with the "seretei is not amused" aspect? I've been around those fics so I would know.

Otaku: Yep. Least it's different. *shows the next script* Now go practice. Everyone else is already practicing!

Ogichi: *reads it* No fair how come he can trans-*shuts his mouth*

Otaku: No spoilers, idiot! Anyways, feel free to review! I love some critique (as in what to improve on and correct)! ^^
