DISCLAIMER: I do not own Bleach in any way, shape or form

Chapter 2

Author's note: Alright guys, here's the next chapter just as I promised! Most of the reviews told me to use the ENTER button more often so I hope you're satisfied. I'm slowly starting to get the hang of it so anymore advice will be greatly appreciated! Without further ado, here we go!

The phone started ringing. Ichigo took a quick glance and answered it. "I'm on my way Yuzu, stop getting all worried" he said with an exasperated expression on his face.

"But Ichi-nii, the movie should've ended 30 minutes ago! Where are you?!" exclaimed Ichigo's poor little sister. Ichigo sighed, "I'm near the supermarket, you need anything?" After a few seconds, he heard his sister's voice again.

"Now that you mention it, I need some sauce for the spaghetti I'm making for dinner!" "Okay, be there in 10 minutes" and he hung up. Ichigo stared at the glowing street lamps that were zooming up at him as he made his way to the supermarket. His mind quickly shifted to the reason he was late. Ever since that incident at the movie theater, he couldn't get that smirk off his face.

He found a parking spot nearby and stepped out. That dumbfounded look on her face was priceless. The way her mouth was hanging open and the way those beautiful violet orbs widened in shock. Obviously, that woman had never been talked back to since it clearly showed on her facial features. Ichigo stopped abruptly at the entrance to the supermarket, nearly knocking into a senior citizen pushing her trolley.

Did he just think her eyes were beautiful? She did have a magnificent pair of violet eyes but the way he had just thought about it was just.. weird. Shaking his head, he made his way inside and started searching for the sauce Yuzu asked for. His mind kept going back to that girl's face the entire time and he didn't even realize that he had passed the sauce three times already.

After paying the cashier, Ichigo walked back to his car and drove the rest of the way home, thinking about a certain raven haired girl. Kurosaki Clinic came up in the distance and he parked in the garage. As he was about to knock on the door, it suddenly pulled back and out jumped a gorilla wearing a lab coat.

"IIIIICHIGOOOOO!" yelled Isshin Kurosaki. In a matter of seconds he was knocked to the ground with a swift punch from his son. "What's up dad?" Ichigo asked in an agitated tone. Just as quick as he was knocked down, he jumped right back up and started skipping around.

"Oh! My son's razor sharp reflexes are on point as always I see!" Isshin exclaimed with a hearty chuckle. Ichigo's eyebrow twitched in annoyance. "I don't think someone needs razor sharp reflexes when they have a dad who's jumping out every chance he gets" he muttered under his breath.

Ichigo walked to the kitchen and dropped off the sauce on the counter. The delicious aroma of spaghetti and meatballs assaulted his nose. "Yuzu, here's the sauce you asked for." The said girl immediately popped her head out of the refrigerator and grinned at him. "Thanks a bunch Ichi-nii. I would've been done a long time ago if someone didn't decide to take their own sweet time" she pouted.

"Hehehehe.. You see, I was caught up in a traffic jam outside the theater and couldn't do much about it.." Ichigo lied, rubbing the back of his neck. It was a good thing Yuzu was so gullible and innocent because the frown on her face vanished and she went to put the finishing touches on the dinner. Ichigo took that chance to creep off to his room before his sister started asking for the details. Just as he was about to open the door to his room, "traffic jam my ass" said a bored voice from the other side of the hallway.

Ichigo spun around to see his other sister Karin leaning against the door to her room. He scowled at her smug expression. "What do you want Karin?" He wanted nothing but to get this over with.

"Oh, nothing at all. Just wondering about that blatant lie you just told Yuzu." She replied nonchalantly while taking a keen interest in her nails.

Ichigo raised an eyebrow. "You heard me all the way from your room?" Karin returned her gaze at her brother. "Why? Can't believe it when a sister is worried about her dear brother?" she smirked.

The sarcasm was starting to get on his nerves. "I know you have another reason as to why you're so late Ichi-nii so just spill the beans already" she stated, finally some seriousness in her voice. He knew he wouldn't get away with it when Karin Kurosaki started getting serious and for a moment he wondered why it was his two sisters who were more concerned about his whereabouts rather than his idiotic father.

Ichigo sighed. "Fine, I bumped into a girl on my way out of the bathroom" he mumbled. Karin looked at him quizzically and a small smirk started playing at her lips. He sighed once again, knowing exactly where this was headed.

"And then?" she asked as curiously as her solemn attitude allowed. "None of your business" he said in an irritated tone. Karin's eyebrows scrunched up even more.

"Whoa, didn't know you took a fancy into women you bump into outside the restroom!" She knew she was jumping to conclusions but she couldn't help but mess with her fool of a brother.

"It's not like that you pervert.." Ichigo groaned. "We just exchanged a few comments, although it was only me since she was just speechless." An image of the shocked girl appeared in his mind.

Karin stared at him with a confused look on her face. "Well aren't you the ladies man" she said sarcastically. Ichigo grunted, "whatever.." and turned back to enter his room. He heard a few cat calls from outside the hallway but ignored it. There was a lot of stuff to get to the next day and he didn't have time for this nonsense.

Ichigo changed into something comfortable to sleep in and climbed into bed. He didn't even hear Yuzu's voice calling for dinner. Instead he fell asleep like a rock the moment his head hit the pillow. Dreams of a petite, raven haired girl with the most fascinating violet eyes, ravaged his mind.

The last chapter was mainly focused on Rukia so I thought it was fitting that I introduce Ichigo in this one. Longer chapters are on the way so don't worry. I'm just getting started! Don't forget to review and the next chapter will be up in a few days. I'll see you all until then! ;)
