A/N: This is my first story on fanfiction and my first fanfiction story. I hope its good and funny. I'm obsessed with yaoi at the moment, so I'll be writing it at the time. Please give me creative reviews so I can make the story better. Thank you! Also, its a little OOC...I think.

Chapter 1: Prologue

~Of Pierced Ears~

Ichigo smiled in the mirror as he noticed the swelling go down. 'That took a while, but at least I can go show Renji.' Ichigo thought as he admired the diamond stud in his right ear. Ichigo started thinking about why he got the earring in the first place. He was in a sparring session with Renji and right after

Zangetsu clashed with Zabimaru in a mixture of reishi. Ichigo stopped fighting and asked a question that wasn't fit for the battlefield. "Where did you get your tattoos done?" Renji looked at him with an confused look and answered with a dumb, "Huh?" Ichigo sighed irritated. "I mean I never noticed a tattoo parlor in the Seireitei, and I don't think you died with them already on."

Renji got out of his confusion state and smirked. "Well, why are you so curious?" He asked Ichigo with an earsplitting grin. "Do you want one?" Ichigo shook his head. "No, but most tattoo parlors do piercings too, and I thought about getting an earring." Ichigo said with no hint of a joke on his face.

Renji had just looked at him before studying him. His eyes were searching Ichigo up and down while he circled him. Ichigo felt very uncomfortable and could feel himself blushing a bit under Renji's intense stare. He felt completely naked. "Yeah, you would look good in an earring." Renji replied after he finished his stare.

Ichigo's thoughts were interrupted by a pounding on his door. His smiled turned into a scowl as he got ready for the impact. He blocked his dad kicked to the face with a punch to his father's gut. Isshin Kurosaki flew to the ground, but was up again in an heartbeat. He calmed down and explained the reason why he wanted to slam Ichigo into a wall, for real this time.

"I heard that you got an earring and I see now that it is true." Isshin said pointing to Ichigo's right ear. Ichigo nodded his scowl never leaving his face. "Well, who the hell told you to get one?" Isshin said with a punch to Ichigo's face. "I di-." "Cause it wasn't me, Karin, or Yuzu, and it certainly wasn't your mother." Isshin interrupted Ichigo that made his pissed scowl turn into a mournful one and his dad angry face to a regretful one.

Isshin straightened himself up and cleared his throat. "Ichigo, I'm sorry. I didn't mean-" "No, it's okay." Ichigo said quietly as he walked passed his dad out of his room like he was dead. His eyes set on the floor, Ichigo made his way out of the house. He decided to take a walk to Urahara's shop to show Renji his earring. 'What was so wrong with it?' He wondered. Nobody else besides his dad seemed to have a problem with it. The man who gave it to him gave him a whistle after he did and when he was walking from the place he got many cat calls, also. Ichigo also thought he looked pretty damn good with it.

It was like the whole world love his new piercing except for his dad, and maybe even his mom. He gave a sigh as he turned the corner and entered Mr. Hat-and-Clogs' shop.

The sight that he saw made all of his depressing thoughts fiddle away. Renji was sitting on the floor mooching off of some ramen, while Jinta was trying to take it away from him and Ururu was trying to stop them from fighting. Urahara was just sitting across from the them smirking behind his fan and sipping tea.

Ichigo cleared his throat and everybody looked at him. The first reaction he noticed when Renji he spitted out the noodle soup and looked at him dumbfounded, his mouth open like a fish. The next reaction was Urahara who dropped his fan in his cup of tea and busted out laughing. Even Jinta was laughing, tears pouring out his eyes as he shouted, "I knew it!" Over and over again.

A pissed Ichigo twitched and barked out, "What the hell is so funny?" Renji got out of his daze and smirked. He walked up to Ichigo and swung an arm over his shoulder. "Wow, Ichigo! What the hell did you do?" Renji asked surprised. "I got my ear pierced. Do you like it?" Ichigo asked. "Yeah it cool and all, but it's on the gay ear." Renji replied chuckling. "WHAT?" Ichigo said surprised that no one told him. He never even heard about the gay ear. That would also explain why some random guy gave him his number.

"Dude, and you call me the moron." Renji said joining Urahara in the fits of hysterical laughter. "STOP LAUGHING!" Ichigo yelled as he palmed his right ear and ran out the store, not noticing a Renji that was coming up behind.

~Of Pierced Ears~

A/N: All right! How was that? Leave creative reviews so I can make it better. BTW, Jinta is that red head boy from the shop and Ururu is the girl from the shop, just in case you didn't know. I had to Google their names, since I forgot myself.
