Prologue

"Hey Koneko-chan!"

Ichigo looked up from the book currently positioned in her hands to find a figure floating unswervingly in front of the sun.

She was able to make out that the figure had long, pointed ears, revealing clothing and…

Kisshu

The persistent boy swooped down to playfully to place a kiss on the strawberry-haired girl, only to be swatted away by an enraged hand.

"Kisshu! Get away! If I've told you once, I've told you a million times! I. Do. Not. Like. You." The girl spoke the last few words slowly and pronounced.

Golden eyes flashing with amusement, the boy responded: "Come on, Honey. Has that ever stopped me before?"

Giving the girl a smug look, Kisshu landed gracefully on the pavement directly ahead of Ichigo. He leaned in closer to her, stopping when his face was merely three inches away from her own.

The color of her cheeks flushed scarlet. Again she batted him away, covering her newly found embarrassment with her small hands.

Satisfied, he backed away, allowing her to return to her normal, rather pale skin tone.

After getting over her slight humiliation, she turned back to her alien stalker, chocolate eyes holding a glint of confusion.

"You know Kisshu, you've always pursued me, stalked me even, yet, I never knew why you… targeted me…"

Kisshu's pastel face slightly sagged. He brushed a small strand of olive-colored hair from his striking cat-like eyes before they resumed their brightness. "Koneko-chan you worry about nothing! Can't you just accept the fact that I just fell in love with you?"

Ichigo sighed. There he goes declaring his "love" for me again.

"Kisshu, there has to be some… reason for it all. Was there anything, ANYTHING, other than my given power that caught your eye?"

A puzzled look dominated the features of his light colored face.

Noticing the change in atmosphere, she decided to explain herself. "Like, for example, Aoyama-kun," Kisshu winced at the name. Ignoring the body movement performed by the alien, she continued, "was always so sweet to me. Kind, gentle, loving. He did nothing but care for me. I on the other hand have done nothing to give you the slightest initiative that I was at all interested in you. I've done nothing to show you the personality I'd want you to see if I wanted to return your admiration for me."

Concluding her rant, she returned her gaze to the green-haired one standing before her. His features had fallen. The once long pointed ears now drooped downward, the lighthearted tint in his eyes gone, the mischievous grin that was firmly placed upon his lower face had disappeared.

Glancing at him once more, she realized what a poor state he had just descended into.

"K-Kisshu?" a troubled spark entered her brown eyes.

She's right.

"K-Kisshu! Answer me!"

She wouldn't understand my reason.

"Kisshu! Snap out of it!"

I'm worthless to her.

"KISSHU!"

The boy suddenly realized the distressed tone that had taken over her voice. She too was surprised at how concerned she had gotten.

The sparkle in the golden eyes had made its return. "Sounds like you were worried for a minute, Koneko-chan!"

Even though she wouldn't admit it, she was relieved that the glimmer, complete with his signature smirk, had returned to the young alien.

"Please, as if I could care less. I was just annoyed that you weren't answering me, that's all." The crimson color had come to revisit the cheeks of Ichigo.

Swinging his head back, he let out a rather loud laugh, only making her skin darken further.

Ichigo had suddenly realized the question that she had just recently abandoned. "You never answered me Kisshu."

He looked up to meet her stare.

"Why me?"

Shifting his weight from one foot to the other, he struggled for the words. Deciding on what he'd say, Kisshu diverted his eyes to his hands, uncomfortably twiddling his thumb. "How about we keep that little explanation for a later date."

With that, a ripple formed in the air. Kisshu entered the disturbed area, glancing back at Ichigo and giving her an obvious wink.

"Till next time, Ichigo-chan"

Moments after he had left, she noticed that he hadn't used her pet name that he had continuously called her.

How odd… what's with him…

Authors Note: Sorry this was so short, but it's just the prologue. I've already started the first chapter! Yay! Purely guessing, I suspect that this particular story will merely be 3 chapters long...
