POV: Bold

Disclaimer: All the characters and stuff are from Bleach which belongs to Kubo Tite.

It has been a few months after everything (Arrancars, Vizard stuffs) had ended, things in Karakura town went back as usual before Ichigo and Rukia actually met. In soul society, things went back to normal too; however the pair which once met before has to be separated.

-A few months ago-

-Soul Society, Kuchikis' house-

"Rukia..." Byakuya called for her as he opened up Hisana's jewellery box.

Rukia walked up to him, "Yes, Nii-Sama?"

He took Rukia's hand out and placed a necklace with the ring as a pendent on her palm and it seemed that there is another match ring to make up a complete ring.

"Hisana wanted me to pass you this before her death; we had already made an engagement with another family. I didn't inform you this earlier because during the winter war period as we couldn't make this engagement to an officially marriage even if I had informed you during that time." Byakuya revealed this shocking news to her.

"But Nii-Sama…!" She was being cut off by him.

Byakuya turned his back to her, "Please fulfill it, this is Hisana's wish."

He left after saying those words to Rukia.

"Nee-san…"Besides Hisana, someone came into her mind too.

-Half a year later-

-Classroom-

"Ichigo…!" Asano went up to him with his open arms.

Ichigo stretched his hand out and gave a punch right on his face, "Stay away from me."

"Ichigo… What happened to you?! I suddenly feel that there's a distance between you and me!" He cried and Ichigo walked to his seat.

As Asano was about to give another try on Ichigo, Mizuiro pulled his ears and away, "Stop pestering him, he will never bother about you."

"He will ever bother about me?!" The tears from his eyes poured down like rainfall.

"Ohayo, Kurosaki-Kun…" Orihime greeted him.

Ichigo looked up, "Oh… Ohayo Inoue."

She stepped forwarded to him, "Kurosaki-Kun…"

"Yes, Inoue…?" He asked for her question as he was trying to sort his things out.

Orihime's face started to turn red as she began to ask, "Are… Are… Are you willing to go over to my aunt's resort with me?!"

Everyone turned around and looked at them.

"Oh… Okay..." He replied in a restless tone without 2nd thoughts.

She blushed even more, "Thanks a lot!"

Asano, Mizuiro and Tatsuki gave her a strange look.

"Ano… All of you can come along too." She smiled and she blushed.

-Home-

"ICHIGO…!" As Ichigo opened up the door, a flying kick came over together with that loud voice.

He gave a punch on his chin, causing his dad to fall, "OYAJI!"

"My dear son, I'm just trying to help you! How can you refuse the love from your father?" He blinked his eyes a few times, trying to spread his love to Ichigo. (Flowers and hearts appeared everywhere.)

He glared at him, giving him a face of "I don't need your exaggerating love"

His father turned back to his abnormal serious personality to reply him, "Ichigo, don't think that I don't know how you feel. Don't forget, besides being a shingami and a doctor, I'm also a love expert."

"Ichi-nii… Not only Dad could see what's going on with you. Karin and I also realize that you have been acting so weird and so restless after Rukia-Chan left." Yuzu said how she felt about Ichigo.

He widened up his eyes, "That… that-that has nothing to do with Rukia! I'm going up to my bedroom!"

As he got into his room, he slammed his door hard.

"Forget it, Oyaji and Yuzuru… Ichi-nii will never admit his feeling to us." Karin told them.

-Ichigo's room-

"Welcome home, Ichigo…!" Kon jumped out from the cupboard.

However Ichigo flunked him away and lied on his bed while he remained silent.

"What's the matter with you?! I'm speaking and greeting you so politely and you just flunked me away?! If I'm not in my current state, I would just drown you in the river!" Kon screamed at him but Ichigo still remained silent.

"Why am I feeling so down? Rukia is gone, so what? It's none of my business and I shall feel happy about it. There will be no more corruption in my life…" He felt that something was missing from his life.

During that moment when he thinking about such things, someone broke through his window with a big loud crush.

"Konbanwa, Ichigo!" That familiar female voice woke him up completely.

He turned to take a look at that female with that shocking face, "Ru…Rukia…!"

"Nee-San…!" Kon trying to pound onto Rukia but he got smashed by Rukia as usual.

"Surprise…? During this period, did you miss me?" She asked him as she gave a punch onto his chest.

Ichigo immediately stood up with that slightly red shaded cheek, being paranoid, "I… I… No such things! Who are you to me? Dream on if you want me to miss you!"

Rukia sat on his bed automatically like usual, "Anyway, I'm not here to quarrel with you."

"Then why are you here?" Ichigo finally asked her.

Rukia's expression changed, "I'm here… to escape from a… an engagement."

"Engagement…?! What engagement? I've never heard that from you before!" He carried that surprising and shocking look on his face.

"Yea… I just knew it from Nii-Sama, he said that I should fulfill Nee-San's wish. However I have never see the guy that I'm having an engagement with before." She looked at the ring which was on the necklace she wore.

"You can't! I mean… I mean… though you should fulfill your sister's wish however you have your own decision whether or not you should married to a guy you don't even meet him before!" Ichigo started to notice the ring she had been staring at, "What's that? It looks like it's not complete."

She held onto the ring and sighed, "I think another ring is with the guy and I think... they are getting people to bring me back soon."

They remained silence because Ichigo doesn't know what to say, there were many thoughts in his mind at that moment.

"Anyway…! I heard that you haven't been doing your job recently! Let's go!" Rukia went up and punched his soul out of his body.

-Somewhere at the top of the building-

"Kill it, Ichigo!" Rukia commanded.

He struggled with himself, his thoughts on Rukia as he fought against the hollow, "I don't feel like fighting, I don't feel like losing either, especially her… What's wrong with me, why do I depend on her so much?"

Rukia turned even more serious than usual, "Do you still remember what I had told you in the past?!"

He widened up his eyes, "I remember, I remember everything she said during that crisis. I have to be stronger, in order not to lose her this time again! AHHHH…!"

He dashed forwarded and sliced the hollow into half.

Suddenly he could feel a strong reiatsu somewhere near them, "What's that strong reiatsu from?"

"Ichigo! Quick! Bring me over to Urahara's shop now!" She yelled with panicked.

He piggyback her and increased his footsteps to Urahara's shop.

End of first chapter! I'm sorry for my spelling mistakes and other stuff which is not up to your expectation. Thanks for reading!
