Chapter two: Burnt Bacon + Fresh doughnuts
Note- Adult themes this chapter and some fluff involving exes …I think it counts as fluff :S. Also it focuses a good bit on chad and Orihime this time but its mainly a Ichigo story don't worry.
Orihime knocked on the door and waited diligently, patience was one her best qualities after all. In her hands she held a basket of brown bread loafs for Ichigo knowing he was not used to living by himself and he may need some food. Though after a few moments passed she gave up and assumed ichigo was somewhere else. The quirky girl decided to have a look around the campus though to her surprise the door opened. " ichi- oh?".
Much to her surprise a handsome older teen in a pair black and white checker boxers answered the door. She blushed at the most man's notable bulge and his laid back blank face made Orihime feel even worse. Slightly scared she mumbled delicately
" um is Ichigo here…the dean told me this was his room…um may"
" Ichigo kurosaki right? It's his room but he hasn't shown up yet …I guess I'll tell him you called"
interrupted the man his German accent quite strong and almost lonely.
Orhime beamed a smile forgetting her previous awkwardness around the virtually nude brunet. Before she could reply or leave her name though he shut the door, it wasn't rude per say but she had a bad feeling, almost a surge of sympathy for the guy. She left the bread basket by the door not wanting to disturb him again (or feel awkward at his lack of clothes). Orihime's blush deepened as she remembered his exposed body and shaggy brown bangs he reminded of her stray dog, a coyote even.
Orihime started to walk down the campus halls her head sulked down a rare sight to anyone who knew her well. But that was just the problem; she didn't know anyone in the city. Sure Ichigo and chad were nearby but since they moved in for fresher's week she hadn't seen anyone from Karakura town.
She had wanted to meet up with them all to go out before uryu had to leave for Milan- he had been accepted as in intern for some fashion label she didn't know much about- but nothing happened, no magic force brought them together as she had hoped for.
The auburn head recently got a job at the bakery that helped keep her mind off things but it just was not the same. Orihimes stomach rumbled causing her to rub her tummy . She looked back in the direction she came remembering the bread she left. That's when it struck her. " Art".
She had only two more days to get her supplies for art- her aunt and uncle were late sending her funding so she had completely forgot about it. The female teen quickly started to run to the "Jack of all trades" store Chad had told her about before they moved in to Naruki.
Chad woke up to the smell of his own sweat and other manly smells that permeated his entire flat. the intoxicating pong of strong women's perfume drifting in his nostrils now and then. It was strange calling it his flat he wondered how many others had called it their own?
He turned round to see the hooker hadn't left, for that he was thankful as his wallet was still on display on top of his mechanics magazine. Chad sighed as his nights worth of alcohol thumped achingly in his head. He picked up his wallet and looked longingly at the wanted to do engineering but his tutor "strongly persuaded" him to do Psychology with a boxing scholarship to back him up. He knew it was a better choice in the long run but he still regretted it. He didn't even know why he was bothering it wasn't like he had any goals in life. He chuckled to himself , the term hadn't started and he had a hooker in bed next to him. He guessed what everyone said was right. It was quiet ones you had to watch out for.
Chad got out of bed and decided since it was his apartment he had no need to be modest and walked into the kitchen naked. Luckily he didn't have any roommates as it was an off campus dig that his friend got for him cheap. He started to make breakfast and not knowing what to do the morning after you pay a hooker prepared enough for two. He silently grinned thinking about how cliché it was to making bacon and eggs for breakfast with a black woman in bed.
"Cough ..Cough".
he jumped as he turned round to see the prostitute in her lingerie, her name was Jackie if his memory was clear. The garments were black with fluffy material all around some it looked damaged…had he been too rough? "Are you ok?"
Asked chad a little bit green on the whole ideal.
" oh I'm great….throats a bit fucked but that was your money put to good use right?"
Chad blushed he hadn't expected it to feel so awkward.
" Relax sweetie I only stayed because you insisted on it. T'was hailing a bucket out there last night. I'll be off take care sugar".
Chad turned round " I was just making breakfast ..if you want some". Jackie looked at chad like he had slapped her with a fish who had seemingly forgot he was not wearing any clothes and smiled.
" If it looks as good as what your offering sure why not".
Chad had a feeling his spent money was going be a good investment. Though much to his chagrin his purchase had caused him to burn the bacon.
" Its Itsygo"
Ichigo fell to the floor as a cute voluminous girl tackled him.
" Well aint it the berry himself?"
roared a raw feral voice. The two identities were certain to Ichigo now. And he didn't have a clue whether or not that was a good thing.
Both of them in one way or another were his exes. Nel was his high school sweetheart who was forced to dump him when a rival gang member Nnoitra took an interest in her. Grimmjow was the closest thing Ichigo had had to a boyfriend as they would kiss when drunk and many people had considered them a couple …though neither two males fell into such a category . Though Ichigo was in denial grimmjow just didn't like to be labelled.
"Ichigo do you remember when I couldn't say your name!"
cried neliel gleefully .
" yeah "
replied ichigo not sure on how to handle the situation.
"Wait don't call me berry. You.. Bluebell!".
Verbal assault wasn't getting into trouble right?
" Oh c'mon you two …lovers tiffs are so annoying have some control. "
Grimmjow started yelling profanities at the pretty girl while ichigo just glared.
"Control? You just dump tackled me on top three flights of stairs!".
Grimmjow howled with laughter at that.
"Details, details"
replied Neliel casually; it was almost enough to make you think her actions were mature.
The three old time acquaintances sat down near the campus and hung round by a large fountain. Nel was dipping her feet in the water while grimmjow had his arm around her. Ichigo was surpsied how bizarre it felt seeing them …so close.
" I didn't expect to see you in university….ya know…with the gang shit and all that".
Grimmjow's Spanish accent hadn't faded it wasn't strong but it was sexy and Ichigo hated admitting that.
"Shinji took care of …things "
replied the ginger lad. Grimmjow and shinji had never gotten on they had gotten into countless fights if ichigo remembered correctly. Grimmjow had worked as a drug dealer for the Espada and was always bickering with shinji about stealing deals. Though grimmjow only did small time stuff.
" So what's you doing"
asked neliel. Ichigo turned his head round to face her….only to look up and see her sitting in the fountain it was like a public Baywatch scene as her green top tightened around her toned body. From her myrtle green gaze she looked upset .
"umm I think that's a better question to ask you…"
sniggered Ichigo. After a brief silence all three teenagers started chuckling. Ichigo felt a sudden force apply itself from behind as he went flying grabbed onto the "attacker", sending both him and grimmjow in the fountain.
" Well don't you look cute all wet "
teased Grimmjow his feral nature dominating the mood.
" Shut it I've had a rough day"
snapped ichigo.
" So again what you doing in uni ichigo?"
The girl was quirky to a fault being sensible and utterly ridiculous at the same time she was the only person …no she wasn't Orihime was exactly the same both girls were walking contradictions.
"I'm doing English*"
answered ichigo deciding to ignore the fact they were all soaked
" sweet man…well as much fun as this has been me and neliel got to go. We got to bail Nel come on babe".
Ichigo flinched when he heard Grimmjow call Neliel babe it was weird seeing two people you care about together it brought a whole new fourth dimension to being a third wheel. He needed to sound proof his closet. " Well it was nice swimming with you ichigo ..haha and if I was you would get home soon the weather was terrible last night" advised Nel. Ichigo smiled and waved bye as the couple walked off dripping wet.
Chatter chatter chatt tik tik crunchyity chatt is the only nonsense than can begin to describe the sound Ichigos teeth made as he attempted to remember the way to the bus stop. It all looked so different at night. He was not amused to say the least and that Neliel she always had to be right. It was like being caught in an eddy and his soaked clothes were acting as a catalyst to his discomfort.
"Hey Mr awesome"
bellowed a strong voice.
Ichigo licked his numb lips, the voice was like whisky heating him up but stung his chest, and it was ever so bittersweet. He turned round to see the guy from earlier riding a large motor cycle.
"Need a lift? It's the least I can do for you helping me out".
Ichigo was sure god was testing him and his allegiance to the heterosexual community. God was really testing him.
"Where too kid".
Ichigo hoped on the back not caring about the screaming voices in his head * don't trust a stranger he could anything to you , but you'd like that , shut up , why did we all end up in the fountain?*
" The chobara campus"
stuttered ichigo his lips and voice victims to the cold .
" well what do you know….exactly where I'm heading you a student their too huh kid?".
Ichiglo could only think how he was going to fail his first test before the term fucking started.
Orihime had her face pushed up against the shop window, it was open the people were still inside but they had stopped selling . on top of that the wind had start to blow a Gail and she was a good distance away from her campus. That's when a warm welcoming smell entranced the young beauty. She turned round and saw a café. Her eyes lit up and her body thrust throw the now hailing winds impervious to cold now her mind was set on getting some good warm food. Orihime practically fell through the door.
The shop was cute to say the least it had a Alice and wonderland vibe with large dazzling tables and tasteless decor that would make any 80s movie seem fresh and far from cliché. Orihime of course loved it. She ran to empty queue and searched her flower print skirt for her purse. Her eyes begun hold back tears as realised she hadn't fetched it. Luckily her hand clutched some spare change.
"Um can I get a coffee "
she whimpered grief stricken as the smell of cakes and buns tickle her senses.
"What! Whose there I didn't see you. A coffee that all…ah I was about to shut up as well "exclaimed the waitress.
The girl looked young, younger than she sounded and had bright amber brown eyes complemented by her long, purple hair, which was styled into two huge pigtails. Her cream beret matched her dark mustard yellow dress. She stomped in from behind the counter and pressed a Machine which started to filter the coffee.
"That all?"
The girl's tenor was arrogant and not very endearing it contrasted the fairy-tale vibe of the shop.
"Yes please …I forgot my purse".
"Aw too bad …well you'll have to go were closing I'm staying here till the weather gets better. I mean i'm not getting soaked outside waiting for a delayed taxi in this weather!".
Orihime paid for her coffee and turned to look outside. She looked at the girl with her grey blue bush baby eyes, her tears slowly leaking. The café employee raised her finely plucked eyebrow and sighed.
"Fine stay here till I leave but don't bother me okay".
Orihime jumped up on spot squealing in delight.
Orihime sat down and rubbed her stomach childishly trying to suppress her hunger which had grown merely standing in the shop. She slowly sipped her coffee not wanting to be chucked out. Feeling tense from the unfamiliarity she decided to introduce herself
"I'm Orihime Inoue "
she chirped sweetly.
"Ririuka".
Introductions didn't help ease the veil of tension. A sudden flash of lemon yellow flashed throughout the tacky room.
" ahhh" screamed Orihime. " oh shut it will you…I mean how old are you eighteen nineteen? Its just some lightning "
the girls rude demeanour was surprisingly comforting to Orihime. It reminded her of her Tatsuki , Uryu and even Ichigo they were always blunt and honest with her.
"I'm sorry…oh".
Orihime's eyes grew Into tear filled orbs of desperation as she saw the girl place a box of doughnuts on the table and sit down. Ririuka scowled
"its rude to stare at people while they eat you know …not my fault you havn got any money".
Ririuka bit into the fluffy fresh cinnamon doughnut and licked the gritty sugar from pink painted lips. She looked away as she felt Orihime's eyes burn into her image.
" Fine have one".
Orhime quickly grabbed devoured a full doughnut; it was like a goblin attack random and unneeded.
" were you raised in a barn what would your parents say!"
scolded the café worker. Orhime licked her lips and smiled
" I don't know I never met them and my brother said they were dangerous so I guess …they wouldn't really care hehe".
Ririuka couldn't believe her ears…this girl was bonkers.
" I've lost my appetite …here have them".
Ririuka rested her cheek heavily on her hand trying block out the ginger girls gleeful thanks and drabbling chatter. Ririuka was a sucker for a sob story .
