Companion

It was kind of sad. Chad's place smelled of beer all the time. Throughout the years Ichigo and Rukia have never really been to Chad's house, and it surprised them greatly. Ichigo rose from his bed, shoving the sheets away as the sun glared off of the walls and the floor. His smirk lifted off his face as he took in the sweet autumn smell. He wondered about his Dad. How he was doing in real doctors work. Hell, his Dad was a surgeon. But in the end, he will always make more money than Ichigo.

At least I'll get a shit load of Inheritance. Ichigo thought with a smirk.

Rukia was snuggled into the cushions beside him, seemingly pleasantly dreaming. Ichigo didn't want to disturb her so he got to his feet and ran a hand through his orange locks. He looked at Rukia and smiled. He smiled at the feeling that she will always be there for him and that they're going to go to college together. He thought that was so amazing.

He felt his legs creak. That was scary. Ichigo made his way down Chad's weird spiral staircase and checked the clock. It was 10:00 and they had College at 12:00. We have enough time. Ichigo thought. Ichigo realized how happy Rukia made her. Life is like fucking flying in the clouds when she is around. But maybe college will change that.

Chad wasn't going to the same college as Rukia and Ichigo, but they'll still be close. Ichigo casually made breakfast in the greasy kitchen of Chad's and flipped a huge omelet. Ichigo pulled over a stool and sat with a scowl as his omelet sizzled on the pan.

Rukia busted out into the open, totally dressed and ready for college, which impressed Ichigo. Yet he was concerned. Rukia embarrassingly crashed into the wall and Ichigo was puzzled.

"Rukia!"

Ichigo ran over to her, putting his hand on her shoulder, struggling not to laugh. Rukia then immediately turned around and smacked Ichigo upside the head.

"Your freakin' Omelet is burning!"

"Shit!" Ichigo ran over to his desperate omelet and began working with it with a scowl. Rukia came up behind him and settled her hands around his waist. Like usual his scowl immediately dropped.

"You're awefully playful today aren't yah?"

Ichigo turned around and kissed Rukia. They continued to make out for a while, Ichigo's hand hovering over the omelet. Rukia reached up and kissed Ichigo on the forehead.

"Ready for college Strawberry?" Ichigo's omelet was done and he flipped it for good measure and glided it onto a plate. "Yeah, how bad can it be? Other than the work of cource. Ichigo and Rukia sat at the couch devouring Ichigo's surprisingly tasty omelet.

The couple showered together like usual, washing each other and got dressed neatly. Ichigo and Rukia fixed each other up and made sure they had all their supplies. With a quick goodbye to Chad they headed out, On their first journey as college freshmen. Rukia put her head on his shoulder as they rode off into the rising sun.
