Chapter 2

Ichigo stared into the room, confused. Where did she go? Sighing, he turned to Uryu, who was still complaining. He looked over to Chad was silent the whole time.

"Why are we here, Kurosaki, just answer my question!" The Quincy whispered loudly; Ichigo was just about to answer, to make him shut up, but he was interrupted by a familiar voice,

"I'd like to know myself," to his horror he turned to see Rukia, in all her pajama glory. Ichigo blushed a red color, as Rukia glared at him; she folded her arms, evidently not moving until she got an answer.

"Oh, uh, h-hey, Rukia, n-nice night, huh?" Ichigo stammered, scratching the back of his orange colored head. Her violet eyes shone with anger,

"Don't you dare try and change the subject!" She pretty much seethed, putting emphasis on the word dare. Ichigo gulped and turned to see Chad and Uryu running away from the scene,

'Those traitors!'

Rukia tapped her foot, "Well, I'm waiting." What was his problem? He looked scared, like he had candy taken away from him, and he was blushing. Was he spying on her, the nerve of some people. He didn't even trust her to take care of herself. Ichigo gulped the second time, in two minutes.

'What am I going to say? She so pissed at me, I bet she won't buy that I was just passing through the neighborhood excuse. Ugh, if I don't tell her soon she's going to pulverize me!

Just tell her the truth, see her reaction, and go from there.

What? Who's there?

Ichigo, you fool, who do you think, the tooth fairy?

Zangetsu? How the hell are you in my mind?

Never mind how, I just want to help you out, tell that Kuchiki girl the truth. Something tells me she will get mad, but give her time.

Ugh, I am not doing that! Do you what could happen? What if she doesn't, what if-

Just do it, otherwise how will she ever know?What's life without a little risk?

Ugh, go away!

Fine, fine. I'll go, stubborn little brat…

Old ugly fool!'

Ichigo came back from his own little world to see Rukia about to turn and leave, the next moment Ichigo had no control over his own actions. He took her by the hand, twirled her around and kissed her right on the lips, with a force that made Rukia dizzy.

Rukia didn't know what was happening, one moment she was turning to leave and the next…Ichigo was kissing her like no tomorrow. The black haired girl wasn't resisting, in fact she was doing the opposite. Rukia was kissing him back!

'What's happening? Why is he? Why is he kissing me? Oh, who cares, I just want him to be near me. Kami knows I've been wanting this!'

'What am I doing? Why is this happening? Wait, she's kissing back! Damn all the stupid consequences, I want this to happen, hell, I've dreamt of this!'

Ichigo and Rukia didn't notice the girls that the window, they were too wrapped in each other's arms to notice anything else. Everyone was squealing and sighing dreamily, Orihime said, triumphantly,

"I knew they liked each other!"

Tatsuki whispered, "We all did, now Orihime, quiet down, he don't want them to know we're eavesdropping."

Okay, Tatsuki-chan, I pipe down," She said, happily. Oh, she knew it all along, but Ichigo and Rukia didn't. Too bad it took them this long to figure it out.
