Chapter: 2 everything returns to normal
Isshin
"what no that's not possible there is so much that does not add up dad you can't be serious " he stood there with so much shock when I said yes I am Ichigo and I can't believe you have not noticed her looking at you when you sleep or how she acts around you as opposed to other people "what do you mean she is like that around everyone " you truly don't understand woman son but pleas just talk to her I know you have feelings for her I have seen how you look at her when her back is turned and how your mood changes when she is near you and a small bit of advice stop blaming yourself for her injuries it was not your fault understand and at least try and talk to her about your feelings for her "h-h-how did you know all that dad I never spoke it aloud how is it you know of those thoughts " your eyes tell it you should try and hide it better now go back home and get some sleep son I just need to go to Urahara s shop he wants to talk to me and I would hurry home before she wakes up
Ichigo
Dad I still have questions then he said "Go home get some rest I will answer all of them on another time and place son now hurry and one more thing " I felt a sharp pain in my stomach he kicked me bastard why did you kick me "well I Can't have you going soft on me son" and with that he walked away he was right about one thing though I had to get home and fast Rukia would be pissed if she did not find me sleeping I looked at the watch on a building as a ran past 1:55 Dam its late I made it home by 2:15 got back on the couch and was thinking of what my dad told me he knew all that from just looking at my eyes and my body but could Rukia also have noticed it would she say something if she did this was bothering me but I was so tired too tired to think anymore.
Rukia
I woke up screaming with terror from my nightmare it felt so real but was not just then I noticed I was in Ichigo s room in his bed but where was he just then he burst through the door asking me what happened I could not tell him about my nightmare where his own hollow killed him he would know my true feelings so I just told him it was a bad dream about chappy the rabbit he just cursed in a low voice and came to sit on the bed he asked me if I was telling him the truth and I tried my best not to let on I was lying to him it looked like it worked but he said something that captured my attention "Rukia I have to talk to you it is important so pleas " BEEP BEEP BEEP my soul phone it was a hollow can we talk when we get back from killing the hollow Ichigo just nodded as we both went out the window as we were flying towards the location I thought about how Ichigo s Zanpakuto in both shikai and bankai has changed from their previous forms especially his bankai and how each time his power was much stronger than before I was knocked out of my thoughts as I heard Ichigo calling for me to get back he was standing in front of me blocking a attack from the hollow he saved me again this was a strong hollow I drew my Zanpakuto but Ichigo said "Rukia he is mine I need the practice pleas " I nodded my approval then I heard him scream "GETSUGATENSHOU" and in a flash of blue and white light the hollow was gone that attack also has more power than before we returned home when I asked him what he wanted to tell me he just said "it is not important I am going back to sleep and was heading downstairs " I sat on his bed wondering what it was then I fell into a deep sleep
I woke up the clock next to the bed read 7:45 and Saturday I needed to go get a gigai from Mister Urahara I got up and saw Ichigo watching me I found myself blushing a deep shade of pink I turned away fast so he could not see how long has he been here I stood up and told him I was on my way to get a gigai he said alright lets go following me out the window we walked for witch seemed like years in utter silence that's when I spoke how long were you watching me he then said " almost all the night I heard you cry in your sleep I thought you were having a nightmare so I watched over you to make sure you were ok " I felt a heat creeping into my face there it is Urahara s shop we went in it was dark and dusty when Urahara came out sleepy and tiered as always I said I am here for my gigai "O miss Kuchiki or should I say Lieutenant Kuchiki now "BAM I looked around in surprise it was not me who hit him even though I wanted too it was Ichigo who had knocked him down with a fist to the face he said "Hat & Clogs She might have been promoted but don't start with your crap just get her gigai unless you want another punch got it " Urahara got up and said " nope that hurt too much I will go get the gigai" why did you do that Ichigo "I am not in the mood to take his crap and he was starting to get you pissed off too " I slightly blushed at that last bit it was for me as Urahara gave me my gigai we went out to go get some lunch Ichigo s idea I swear I saw him looking at me a few times with longing but I must be imagining myself we sat at a small shop and ordered two cups of green tea and teriyaki for me he ordered the chicken teriyaki we ate and talked about before he lost his powers and he kept saying he was sorry for that night with Grimmjow and I slapped him after the third time he said sorry he did not need to Ichigo just finished paying when my soul phone went off 6 no 12 hollows no wait 50 what is going on we changed in to soul form and ran when we arrived Ichigo Screamed "GETSUGATENSHOU" and almost all the hollows were killed
Ichigo
I killed almost all of them there were only 2 left Rukia Drew her Zanpakuto and slashed the one and killed it I saw the other hollow charging at her she did not see him I could not see any other course of action it was going to impale her I did not have the time to block so I let it stab me I flashed stepped in front of it its claws going through my abdomen and its horn through my shoulder I heard Rukia cry no not one of anger but one of concern and sadness under my breath I said I made you a promise and I plan on keeping it before everything went dark
Rukia
I cried when I saw the beast impale Ichigo he lifted his sword and killed it then blacked out I ran over to him picked him up and dragged him home lucky for us I could count on Chappy to bring his body home when I got there his farther came out running he asked me what happened I told him as we took him up to his room I heard Mister Kurosaki muter under his breath "you idiot why did you not just grab her instead of block it with your body " I was surprised at this what did it mean I told Mister Kurosaki I would watch over him and start healing while he went to get bandages and other medical supplies I started using Kido on him and started on the wound on his abdomen I pulled of his Shihakusho when I noticed his muscular body even after not being near him for so long I know these came from all our past battles I continued my healing on the wounds of his body I hope he makes it what am I saying he will make it and when he wakes and is better again I am going to smack some sense into him and that's a promise you idiot
I know title does not exactly fit but o well so next chapter I think is going to be a lemon or chapter 4 you will just have to wait and see R&R pleas
