Hi guys! So this is my first FanFiction! YAYYYY! Rated M for swearing and sexual content. I hope you enjoy it!

His chocolate eyes fluttered open and a ray of yellow sunlight began peeking through a crack between two dark blue curtains. Ichigo took a second to realize where he was, exactly. He knew this was his room. This was his bed…oh. A small petite figure strewn across his body breathed lightly as she slept. Raven hair mussed and stuck to her face. Last night had been the night. Their night. He could remember it so clearly, with such poetic detail. Seeing how they had been dating for a year and a few months now, they figured it had been due time that they took that big step in their relationship. Sex. As if the WORD wasn't intimidating enough! But as scary as it had been, for the both of them, here they were, the morning after.

Ichigo studied the majestic creature that lay before him. Gently, he began to glide his middle finger up and down her cream colored naked spine. He was caught in limbo, between waking her up and seeing the face of his new and first lover, or to let her continue her peaceful slumber. Despite the fact that the boy was no less than 20, he'd right then and there decided that this was the woman he intended to marry one day. Not anytime soon, but someday. Someday have a life with, have a house with…have children with…Expecting these thoughts to frighten him, he tensed, but feeling no such emotion, his adopted muscle clenching proved unneeded.

He began to become aware of her body. Her thin leg had been draped across his abdomen and her slender, delicate arms wrapped around his body. This felt so right, so correct, so destined to be! He and Rukia had been bound by fate. And now, Ichigo felt more complete than ever before. He tried to find words that fit the description of what had gone on the night before. Sex just sounded too…casual. Fucking sounded violent and unhappy. "Giving themselves to one another" was far too sappy and sugar coated…making love…didn't sound too shabby. That might just be the right definition. He and Rukia had made love. LOVE love. Out of pure emotion and passion and consent. It was perfect. Ichigo tried a gently as possible to flick some crayon orange strands out of his peripheral vision, but the attempt failed and woke the sleeping beauty.

Purple orbs lazily revealed themselves to Ichigo's chocolate gaze. As Rukia's brain began to function, memories, as clear as day, came back in a flash. Memories of last night. It was perfect. Ichigo had really gone out of his way to make it special. Including red candles, mood music, dinner, even some Champaign (which he had stolen out of his father, Issin's, liquor cabinet.) Blinking blissfully at the memory, Rukia began to feel her nerves become aware. It had been both of their first times, and Rukia had been convinced that she had been the most scared out of the both of them. Not of the action at all, the action was a physical way of showing how much she and Ichigo loved each other. She was just frightened of the pain of her first time, really. And now that it was over (and hurt less than she'd expected…then again, she had been expecting the worst) she was filled with nothing but love and passion and bliss.

Ichigo watched the small soul reaper shift above him. She'd successfully propped herself up on her elbows which rested on Ichigos rising and ebbing chest. Ichigo was so overcome by emotions that he had to just-

"I love you."

Rukia couldn't help but smile lightly at his comment.

"No good morning, your highness?" She teased, feeling very smug about her joke.

Ichigo chuckled and began to flex his muscles. "Well, if you want it that way"- he began to sit up and bring Rukia up with him. As they moved a sharp and new pain hit Rukia between her legs. "Ow! Ow!" Her face contorted into a grimace at the unfriendly feeling. Ichigo's heart plunged.

"Are you alright? Did I hurt you? I'm sorry!" It was so sweet that he was so concerned with her wellbeing and comfort. He should've been expecting this though, Rukia had tied to explain countless times of the pain women undergo during their first sexual experience. Slowly bringing herself up to where she was finally sitting on her bum, legs stretched around Ichigo.

"I'm fine." Rukia exhaled calmly. Ichigo couldn't help but marvel at the petite woman's body. The way her waist curved was so smooth and just flowed, her slender neck and small shoulders. Her thin, yet (surprisingly) muscular legs wrapped loosely around him. How lucky was he?! To have the most beautiful woman in the world want him! He rested his hands around her lower waist, studying how delicate she was.

"Maybe I should've been gentler." He said, more to himself than to her. "Nonsense." Came Rukia's immediate response. "You were perfect. You are perfect." Ichigo's mouth twitched into a mischievous smirk. "Oh really now?" he half growled, flipping her over so that their heads where facing the opposite side of Ichigo's bed's headboard. He fell on top of her and began to cover her neck in kisses, trying to heal his love bites from the previous night.

"Ichigo!" Rukia half laughed, half exclaimed, surprised by his impulsive action. Nothing would have pleased her more than to make love with her new and first lover right then and there. Unfortunately, just as she had been ready to tell him so-

"ICHIGO!" A young girl's voice exploded from the lower section of the house, so fast and so sudden that Ichigo and Rukia flew from each other like negative magnets. "ICHIGO, COME AND GET YOUR BREAKFAST!" Ichigo was shaking as he franticly began to collect his clothes that had been lazily strewn across his bedroom floor. "C-coming!" He called back, frazzled. Rukia had hopped into Ichigo's sliding closet, in which she had slept many years ago. "What the hell!?" Rukia whisper-yelled at Ichigo, her expression just as frightened as his. "I thought you said that your family was out for the weekend!" She hissed. She'd feel like a whore if one of Ichigo's little sisters knew what had gone on between them last night! "I thought so TOO!" Ichigo returned the angry whisper. "ICHIIIII!"

"COMING!" Ichigo was half dressed when a knock came at the door. It sounded like Yuzu's honey-sweet voice. "Ichigo what's taking so long!?" Ichigo groaned loudly as he struggled to zip his pants. "Can't a man get some privacy 'round here!?"

"Your breakfast is getting cold!"

"I'LL BE DOWN IN A MINUTE!"

As light, padding footsteps, almost soundlessly, made their way from Ichigo's bedroom door, Rukia managed to slip on a white and lavender night gown and protrude out of the sliding mirror-closet. It was almost disappointing for Ichigo to see his new lover already dressed. And with all those useless clothes covering that extraordinary body…

More light had snuck its way between Ichigo's dark bedroom window curtains. Standing there and watching her with all her glory, sun shining about her face, like she was an angel…she was almost impossible to resist. Ichigo soon decided, within that small timeframe, that he and Rukia should get an apartment or a condo to live in together, seeing as how their relationship had gotten quite serious and counting on the fact that he planned to marry this extraordinary woman someday.

"What?" Rukia's voice was soft, as she was still recovering from some pains she had felt trying to put the modest sleeping dress on.

"Nothing." Ichigo said instinctively, knowing that his thoughts may scare Rukia, for one thing, he was only 20 and they both were just about to start their third year of college. In time…in time…

"ICHIGO! COME DOWN HERE NOW! DAD'S GOT A SURPRISE FOR YOU! GET YOUR LAZY ASS DOWN HERE!"

That was defiantly Karin's voice.

"I'M COMIN'!" Ichigo groaned. Rukia gave him a mild and sweet smile before taking his hand.

"Let's go." She sighed. "I want to know what your surprise is!" Sudden excitement had infused Rukia. As much as Ichigo wanted to scoop her up and love her all over again, just like their previous night, he knew that with his family in the house, this was not the right time.

':IIICCCCHHHHHIIIIGOOOO!"

"I SAID I WAS COMIN'!"

OOOhhhh! I wonder what Issin's surprise is! CLIFFHANGER! Anyways, I hope you enjoyed chapter on! Stay tuned!
