A/N: Due to the unexpected number of positive reviews I received for my first story "Clean Carpets" I decided to turn this into a series of ichiruki oneshots. Thank you to everybody who has left a review for me.
Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach
WoW
"Ichigo! I need $20."
"What?! I just gave you $40 two days ago. What did you spend it on, because it sure as hell wasn't groceries considering the fact the cupboards are bare."
"I spent it on WoW."
"WoW? What the hell is that Rukia?"
"World of Warcraft. Honestly Ichigo have you been living under a rock? Anyways I need money to buy an expansion pack."
"What the hell do you need an expansion pack for?"
"The expansion pack has the new profession, jewelcrafting, which I want for my character so I can earn more money to buy the sword I want."
"Let me get this straight, you, who refuse to get a job, want me to give you my hard-earned real money so that you can do virtual work on a computer game and earn virtual money to buy your character a virtual sword?!"
"Yes."
"Well my answer is 'no' Rukia. If you want to waste money on some stupid game then you can get a job and waste your own money, because you sure as hell aren't wasting mine."
Rukia frowned, but that quickly turned into a pout.
Oh no, Ichigo knew what was coming next. Cue the fake tears.
"Why are you being so cruel to me Ichigo? I left my friends, my family, and my home, all to be with you. And now I'm living in this tiny apartment with you, in a strange new world, and you're mad that I don't have a job. It's not my fault that I don't have the skills necessary to get a job in the real world."
The puppy dog face Rukia was giving him right now might have worked on a lesser man, but not Ichigo Kurosaki. "Rukia, Hantarou was able to get a job here at a burger joint in his first week in the real world. I'm sure with your many talents you would able to find something, if you actually looked."
Rukia narrowed her eyes. Time to play her trump card. Rukia got out her cell phone out of her pocket. "Ichigo, I really didn't want to do this, but you've left me with no choice."
"Rukia, what are you doing?"
Rukia's next words sent chills down Ichigo's spine "I'm calling your father to tell him you're not providing properly for me."
Faster than you can say 'Bleach' Ichigo produced $20 from his wallet and handed it to Rukia. "Here, buy your stupid expansion pack."
"Thank you, Ichigo." Rukia said in her fake school girl voice, and she leaned forward and pecked him on the cheek before happily skipping out the front door to buy her expansion pack.
