It was just another average, boring day at Karakura High School. Ichigo was enduring lunch on the rooftop with his rather annoying and loud friends. He listened to Keigo's usual antics about how many girls wanted to "get with him". Ichigo let Keigo's ramblings fade into the background of his mind as he noticed a new group enter the rooftop, Ryo, Michiru, Chizuru, Tatsuki, and Orihime.
"Ryo is looking so fine today!" Keigo exclaimed, throwing his hands in the air for emphasis.
"Michiru looks nice today as well," Mizuiro oddly observed. Usually he didn't take to girls their age; he preferred older women. But again Ichigo ignored them.
The strawberry head thought to himself, 'Those idiots, can't they learn to control their hormones?'
"— and Orihime is hot!" Keigo shouted. At this Ichigo stopped what he was doing. Dropping his sandwich, everyone turned to him. Ichigo didn't know why this bothered him, but it did. He could feel heat flooding to his head as his anger grew more and more due to one simple comment. It wasn't like he hadn't heard them talk about her this way before. But he just couldn't take this anymore. She was on a completely other level than any other human being. That's why he couldn't help the next words that came out of his mouth:
"Orihime is hot? Orihime is hot? You have the all the adjectives in the world to describe Orihime, and you settle for 'hot'? You've completely understated just what she is. Orihime is far beyond beautiful. Orihime is enamoring, enrapturing, captivating, ravishing, lovely, incredible, overwhelming, adorable, alluring, enticing, and radiant. She's a stunner—she takes the breath away from everyone she meets. Her eyes constantly shine with joy, even in the darkest midst of pain and sadness. She's a supernova that I can barely handle, that I don't deserve at all, but I can tell you that you'd never even stand a chance. She has a mind that can tear yours to shreds, considering the one word you used to describe her with is 'hot'. Don't ever degrade Orihime that way again, or I'll shove my foot down your throat."
Ichigo stood up, not making eye contact with anyone on the rooftop, but he was sure they were all staring at him as he angrily sped away to the stairs, his loud footsteps being the only noise that could be heard through the stunned bystanders after his outburst. His eyes managed to meet one pair of large, confused gray orbs. Her cheeks were blush red and eyes brimming with tears.
'Oh great, now I just embarrassed her. She'll probably never talk to me again.' He chided himself as he exited the rooftop, face burning as bright as his hair at the scene he had caused. He slammed the door to the roof, ignoring Keigo's sobs and the shocked whispers of his classmates as he made his way down the stairs.
He had just embarrassed himself and probably Orihime too. But oddly, he didn't regret it. He thought proudly, 'because it was the truth.'
A/n: Okay guys, this is my first fanfiction ever, it's extremely short and incredibly dull but I tried my best and I really hoped you enjoyed it! I've been such a nervous wreck about publishing anything on here, just because there are so many fantastic authors that who I've admired for so long! Anyway please review (and be nice, although constructive criticism is welcome). And I got the idea for Ichigo's rant from a tumblr post I saw from johnnyis. He was talking about his girlfriend so of course I had to make some revisions to make it my own ichihime goodness :) Thanks for reading!
P.S. If anyone likes this, I have an idea for a sequel to this, so just let me know in the reviews. Peace.
