A/N: Another piece of strangeness between Rukia and Ichigo… interesting!!!
'Oi, Rukia.'
'What?'
'Here.'
Rukia caught the brightly wrapped box deftly, staring at it in some confusion. 'What's this?'
'It's a birthday present. Happy birthday, shinigami.'
'I told you to stop calling me that,' Rukia told him absently, her heart light. 'Is this really for me?'
Ichigo glared at her. 'Your name is on it, dumbass, who else would it be for?'
Rukia glared back. 'Don't make me hurt you.'
Ichigo sighed. 'Just open it, Rukia, will you?'
Rukia pulled off the wrappings, the bright pink bow, and opened the box to find…
'a paint set?'
Ichigo grinned at her. 'Now you can draw those cute little bunnies to your heart's content. I'm off to school - see you later!'
Rukia stared at the giant paint set, and then up at Ichigo's clean, white bedroom walls, and a nasty grin crossed her face.
'WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?'
Rukia smiled up at him from where she was sitting in the corner. Her hands, her face, and her clothes were covered in paint.
'Don't you like it?' she asked sweetly.
Ichigo's eyebrow twitched. 'Rukia. Why are there rabbits all over my walls? And why the hell are they all different colours?'
'You told me I could draw bunnies to my heart's content,' Rukia pointed out. 'So I did…'
Ichigo turned on her. 'I meant on paper! PAPER!'
'But Ichigo,' Rukia began innocently, 'the size of the paper was too small for what I wanted to draw.'
'Now listen here… I want my walls clean! So you can take your paints and paint over these rabbits until my walls are white again. Do you hear me?'
Rukia pouted. 'But Ichigo…'
'No! no buts! Paint the damn walls or I'll do it for you!'
It wasn't hard for Rukia to fake tears. Pulling a handkerchief form her pocket, she held it to her eyes. 'But it's my birthday. I thought you cared, Ichigo. I never believed that you could be so cruel, so…'
Ichigo threw himself on his bed. 'Why me?' he asked the bright green rabbit on his ceiling. 'What did I do to deserve this?'
Rukia waited patiently.
'Oh all right!' Ichigo snapped, throwing up his hands. 'Keep the damned rabbits!'
Rukia flung her arms around him. 'Thank you Ichigo!' she said gleefully.
Ichigo rolled his eyes. 'Whatever.'
