The Return of Chappy Ichiruki Style
By Fantasy Inc. - An Ichiruki moment
A/N: I couldn't resist. I had to write this! I never knew torturing a girl in love could be so fun... :P I just LOVE Ichigo and Rukia together... Though I always feel bad for Renji... I mean, who is he supposed to end up with? Byakuya? Somehow, I hear a million people scream yes behind me...
Note: Yes, a note! Recently, I've been thinking about vast amount of Ichigo X Rukia stories out there (because it's just so... so obvious, you know?) Also, I have realized that Rukia holds a lot of power over Ichigo, doesn't she? This is a story to maybe somewhat restore Ichigo's honor XD
Disclaimer: Hehe... Be RIGHT back. I just have to pick up my Tite Kubo costume...
Kurosaki Ichigo settled down on the couch, ignoring the frantic cries of dismay behind him. He was partly responsible for their dismay and refused to crack to their tears. To show his resolve, he pulled his face into a deep scowl.
"Yuzu-chan, are you sure you checked everywhere?!"
Kuchiki Rukia's high pitched, fake smile usually annoyed him. Now, he relished the sounds of her distress.
"Rukia-nee-chan, where could Chappy be?" Yuzu cried.
Ah, Chappy.
The very reason why Rukia lived, it seemed. After attempting to steal a six foot tall plushie from Matsumoto, and failing due to the irate Hitsugaya Toushirou, Ichigo had to eventually buy Rukia one. And it wasn't cheap, either. Even then, he was forced to hide it in his most secret hiding place; his closet...
"Well, I have an idea..." Ichigo ignored Rukia's voice, thinking hard.
Rukia had gone crazy. She brought it everywhere with her, talking to it in baby talk and what he hated most of all was when she shoved the bunny's head into her chest for a long hug. Ichigo immediately hid Chappy after she'd done that about... two times?
"Only because it was really annoying... and babyish," Ichigo muttered, nodding his head.
Yes, that seemed about right.
Wait..
Wasn't the house... too quiet?
"Oi! Rukia!"
Silence.
"Ru-"
"Eh? Nee-chan, are you sure you can go into Ichi-nii's room?" Yuzu's voice floated down the stairs.
"Ichigo wouldn't notice, Yuzu!"
Shoot! He mentally calculated who was home.
Karin's at soccer practice...
Dad's... disappeared. Whatever!
"Ah! Rukia-nee-chan, you found Chappy!"
Shoot!
"Yuzu... Do you know what this is?"
Ichigo rushed up the stairs as soon as he heard the crinkle of paper. He stopped one stair from the top because Rukia was standing at the top, reading a letter.
'Oh crap oh crap oh crap oh crap oh crap,' Ichigo thought. He grabbed the letter from her hands and moved to strangle her. Then he caught sight of Yuzu standing next to her and stopped. Yuzu shouldn't have to see such violence from her brother...
"Ah, Yuzu?"
"Eh? What, Ichi-nii?"
"We ran out of milk. Can you buy more?"
"Already? I'll go get some," she sighed. "Nee-chan, take care of Chappy!" The youngest Kurosaki ran out of the house, leaving the two alone.
"Ichigo?"
"Ah... yes?" His anger faded when he heard the danger in her tone. The fact that Rukia was sitting on the floor and petting Chappy's head like the Godfather in all the Mafia movies didn't help either.
Crap, how much did she read?
"From your letter, it seems that you are in love."
"And?" he demanded, blushing.
Rukia paused for drama, loving the way he looked when he was flustered. But she was too anxious to say it, so she blurted it out.
"Her name is... Aikur, right?"
He nodded, swallowing hard.
"Who the hell is she?!!!!!" Rukia stood up, glaring at him.
"What do you mean-Are you jealous?" he asked, happy to use his smirk that showed he was superior to her.
Taking a step back, Rukia stammered, "Well, I-It's-The-It-It might distract you from fighting Hollows," she finished lamely.
"Distract me? How?" He crossed his arms for the best effect.
"I don't know! But you're madly in love with Aikur; you said so!" Rukia held up Chappy as a shield, her cheeks flushed red.
"And you're jealous," he teased.
"I am not!" she muttered. Her voice was now muffled because she had pressed herself against the rabbit.
"Well, then. Maybe I'll go write Aikur another letter!" He waited for her reaction.
"Ichigo!" Rukia tore Chappy off herself, already running to his room. She stopped when she realized he was still one step away from the stop of the stairs. smirking.
"Kuchiki Rukia, I never thought you'd be jealous of Aikur," he said slowly, not believing she was so dense. Rukia turned to face him with a guilty blush on her pale cheeks.
"Um... Would you believe me if I said I was sleepwalking?" He started walking towards her.
"Posessed?"
He stopped in front of her.
"Uh... on drugs? Drunk?"
Ichigo leaned down so his face was only a few inches from her's. Unknowingly, Rukia had closed her eyes, the blush obvious.
"Rukia, I..."
She felt a sudden pain on her forehead.
"What?" Rukia opened her eyes to see Ichigo staring down at her; the hand he used to flick her forehead now pulling down an eyelid.
"I got you there, Rukia!"
"What?" she repeated. 'I was expecting a kiss,' she thought, ashamed.
"Whatever! I'm going back to my tv!" Ichigo was already going back down the stairs, his hands crumbling the supposed love letter to Aikur.
"Ichigo, wait! You didn't tell me who was Aikur!" Rukia was still standing outside Ichigo's bedroom with a dreamy smile and a hand pressed to her forehead.
"Be quiet, Rukia!" Ichigo tried concentrating on his tv show, only half aware that he had the same dreamy smile on.
