It started when Ichigo spotted a promotional ad while trudging down the hall in his high school. He had been dragging along the trash from his homeroom to dump when he spotted it. A newly pinned up piece of bright yellow paper, fresh from the printer it seemed like.
It was an ad for a convention, a business convention and one of the schools he was highly interested in, along with Uryu, so happens to be there. It was coming up this end of the week and he knew without a doubt he had no plans other than relax, look out for hollows, study.
He yanked the ad down and stuffed it in his back pocket before leaving.
He brought it up during lunch time, both guys and girls happen to be gathered up because the roof is under repair (it was a hollow that hunted Ichigo's reiatsu down). Keigo and Mizuiro were discussing something Ichigo had no idea about with Chad, who nodded along, Uryu was quiet but talked when Orihime includes him along in the conversation and the ladies talk amongst themselves, occasionally butting into Keigo's rant about something Ichigo still has no idea of. That boy talks too fast for him to catch up.
He sees a flash of yellow and remembers of the ad from this morning. Turning to Uryu, he swallowed his food as he spoke up.
"Oh yeah, Uryu. Are you doing anything this weekend?" Ichigo asked, gaining everyone's attention.
"I'm free!" Keigo shouted out in glee.
"Not you." He stared at his friend flatly before turning his attention back to the Quincy, who stared at him suspiciously.
"Why?" Ichigo pulls the ad from his pocket and hands it to him. The other taking it and adjusting his glasses as he read the ad.
"Business convention?" he inquired.
"Yeah, one of the schools that we were looking into just so happens to be there. I was considering on going to get more information from them face to face. Plus they have other businesses with interesting programs." Ichigo shrugged his shoulders. "Thought you might want to come along."
"Hm, completing a short summer program would be beneficial when we sign up for college," the Quincy said as he looked through the information. "It's going to be there for the entire weekend. Plenty of time for us to check everything out," Uryu said as he glanced at Ichigo. "I'm in. If we're going to stay there the entire weekend or even more than a day we'll need to book some hotel rooms."
"Yeah, I was going to do that tonight. I have enough money saved up for two nights—" Ichigo was interrupted by his loud friend.
"Whoa-whoa-whoa wait!" Keigo shouted. "Hold on what's with this one-sided plan for a fun trip into the city?!"
Ichigo looked at Keigo flatly. "If it was one sided then It would only be me going and the other forcibly dragged there."
"I meant you two against us!" he gestured to the rest of the group. The subject of the conversation interested them and the fact that it was Ichigo that invited him. The boy always disappears.
"Well, it seems cool, but I have my dad's company he's been prepping me to take over for." Chizuru waved off. "My brother backed out and took off to Germany of all places. That old man is so stressed. I don't think I can manage to get away so soon."
"My Aunt is sick, so I have to look after the flower shop for her with my cousin." Michiru says.
"I'm free!" Keigo exclaimed.
"I'm in." Mizuiro said, though the stars in his eyes clearly say he's not in it for the convention.
"How bout it Orihime? You have been pretty confused on what to do, who knows, this might help you." Tatsuki offered. "We can go together. If we have time we can go explore the city."
"That seems like a plan, I'm in! It's been a while since we've all hung out together." Orihime smiled.
"Why not." Chad nodded.
"And this suddenly turned into a field trip." Ichigo mumbled. "You guys can cover a room for 2 nights?" everyone nodded. "Cool—" the lunch bell rang. "We can talk later tonight about the details then."
"This is going to be so great! A bunch of high schoolers going in the big city!" Keigo cried.
"It's not like we're going to get smashed drunk, Keigo." Mizuiro side eyed his friend.
"I know you're going to flirt with older women there every chance you get." He backfires, causing the short raven-haired boy to cross his arms and huff.
"Can't blame me for being optimistic."
"Alright I'm leaving." Ichigo huffs as he picks his stuff up. Everyone following suit.
After the war had been dealt with and the others had a day or two to recuperate, they still had to go back to school. Boy was that hell for everyone.
It was during school when Ichigo fainted because his body couldn't process all of the new combined reiatsu he had reached his fight with Ywach. He hadn't had enough time to pop out of his body before he fainted.
Suddenly finding himself back home in his dad's clinic had made the boy confused. The Goat-Face had been concerned seeing as his reiatsu finally effected his physical body. After that incident and a slow heal to let his body adjust to everything had made his dad swooping in constantly to check his levels whenever he steps into the door.
Even when he keeps saying he feels fine. The fact that he's not going home immediately and going to make a bit more money would probably annoy the man but fuck it.
Someone had called him to get rid of a ghost for her. He was wondering when people would actually call him to get rid of ghosts since most know he can see them. Anywho, it had been messing with her stuff in her apartment and she can't get any sleep.
He had expected some angry ghost, but it was just a little kid that used to live there and wanted her to leave. The moment she left the room to grab something from the kitchen, Ichigo popped out of his body and talked to the kid and performed konso.
After that, an old lady wanted someone to deal with a gang that's been causing a ruckus near her home and broke her window. It was some new gang that didn't know his reputation, though one of them knew and tried to warn the others.
Too bad for them.
He left a few not too hurt so they can drag their other friends and high tail it out of there. Ichigo looked over to the old lady, who wobbled her way out and thanked him tremendously. He wanted to deny her the payment, but she had insisted, and guilt tripped him for making her go out of her home to just refuse the payment.
"If they come around again and bother you just give me a call, alright? I'll deal with them free of charge next time," he insured her.
"Oh, aren't you sweet. Thank you my dear." She patted him on his arm and made her way back inside, leaving him smiling just a bit.
He took his time going home, because he knew the second he got home, his dad is going to attack him again.
"I'm home—" Ichigo ducked the incoming body and hopped over the leg his dad sweeps. "Goat face will you quit that—" he cursed when his dad shunpos and suddenly Ichigo found himself over his dad's shoulder.
"Alright, time to go—"
Greatly annoyed, Ichigo threw himself forward, drove his knuckles into the back of his dad's knees, and grabbed the back of his dad's leg, causing the man to fall forward. It didn't take long for both Kurosaki men to start grappling each other.
"Oh, geez why do we have to find you guys on the ground tangled up all the time?" Yuzu marches out of the kitchen, fact full pout and hands on her hips. Karin just sighs and sifts through her bag for something as she walked toward her brother.
"Move out of the way, old man." Karin said, and Isshin detached himself and fleed away as she pointed what looks like a scanner at Ichigo and suddenly his entire figure is engulfed in green.
"The hell-?"
"He's fine." Karin tossed it to her dad.
"Is this from Kisuke?" he asked, and she nods. "Better than twenty minutes of kido." He mumbles the last part.
"I dropped by because I left my soccer ball there and Yuzu wanted some candy. Also, did you get into another fight?" she asked Ichigo and pointed at his knuckles.
"Just cleaning up, nothing to worry about."
"Dinner will be ready in a few. You should really start wearing gloves, so you won't damage your hands. Don't forget to clean that up, Ichi-nii."
"Alright, alright." He said as he dragged himself upstairs.
Gloves are a good idea, actually.
When dinner is finally served, he brought it up after the girls chat about school.
"By the way goat-face. I'll be gone for the weekend with a few friends to check out a business convention," He mentioned.
"Oh?"
"Yeah, we'll be back some time on Sunday. Karakura should be fine for one weekend. Yuki's been getting one hell of a beating session from Yoruichi."
"Who else is going with you?" Yuzu asked.
"Uryu, Orihime and Tatsuki seem the most interested in the actual business convention, Keigo, Mizuiro and Chad seem to just tag along for the hell of it." The orange head said as he shoved a third helping onto his plate. "Oh well, they're paying for their own ticket and room," he shrugged.
"Just promise not to get into any trouble, okay?" Yuzu pleaded. "Those thugs in the city are worse around here."
"I'll be careful. It's not like I'm actively looking for trouble," he calmed her down.
"Yeah, but trouble seems to find you a lot," Karin mumbled, causing Ichigo to flick a carrot at her. She threw it back.
"I'll have you know I'm really working on controlling it okay."
"Really."
"Yes, really," he paused, grumbling. "It's just...going slow..." he pushed the food on his plate around.
A corner of Karin's lip twitched up, before the girl shoved more food in her mouth.
"So, you and your friends are staying at a hotel, huh?" Isshin grins at Ichigo, causing the boy to stare at his own father with half lidded, unamused eyes.
"Not even close, Goat-face." He ended the conversation there.

Ichigo stretched his arms up, yawning as he finally finished his math homework. He honestly hoped things won't get too hectic.
"Stop by Urahara's after school tomorrow." His dad's voice suddenly speaking from behind him caused the older boy to yelp and scatter his homework everywhere. The boy clutched his heart and glared at him. "Ha! Still got it." He grinned smugly.
"Damn Goat-face, scared the crap out of me. Fine, I'll stop by. Did he say what for?"
"He should have something for your overly abundant reiatsu problem. That man had stowed himself away in his lab figuring this out."
"Oh?" Ichigo wondered. "Cool, won't have to feel so jittery and stiff at the same time all the time."
"Don't scream too loud!" Isshin threw in before wishing his son good night. The comment made him dumbfounded.
He-
He does not like the sound of that.
What is this? I don't know. I don't fucking know ya'll. Something happened and this came out. Like i was just reading Bleach fanfics and i was just trying to find one where its not centered around more plot based fighting. Like damn i love them but i need a fic where they can just be humans and live a little. Like be kids gdi.
Like a love a lot of the fanfics, but i find too many romance in them. I just need a regular, feel good fanfic.
This will take place after the thousand blood war. I forgot where everything took place so i'm just shoving some things back in the timeline a little and they are still in their early third year. And Keigo does not have his new hair yet, but he will soon enough.
I think you guys can decipher who is who in the group chat. I am totally lame at picking names too btw.
What's going to happen in this fic? I don't know. Who exactly will be in this fic? I also don't know. If any of you like this you are free to request on whatever you want to see.
I honestly don't want to have this fic focus to heavily on shipping. You'll see a little here and there but nothing too suffocating.
