A/N: Well, this is chapter two. I'm not completely sure where this is going but I have a few ideas :). Read and review guy's coz I love reading what you have to do say about it. It really helps! :3

"What the hell was that?"

"What was what Renji?"

"That whole giggling and going bright red. Ya were acting like a total girl!"

"No I wasn't! I'm a man dammit!" Ichigo retorted, squaring up to the red head in the corridor.

"There's the Ichigo I know!" Renji laughed as he pushed Ichigo away and carried on walking.

"Shut up pineapple!"

Renji turned around, his eyes gleaming with a challenge.

"Make me." He said simply breaking into a run and turning down a corridor the opposite way from class.

"You're on!" Ichigo yelled, hot on Renji's heels.

"What are you thinking about?"

Grimmjow didn't reply.

"Grimmjow?"

"What?"

"What are you thinking about?"

"Jeez! Nothing, get off my case!" He growled, swatting at Ulquiorra like he was swatting at an annoying fly.

"Your thinking about that Ichigo boy aren't you? You seemed interested in him.

'He knows me to well.'

"No I'm not." He replied, glaring at Ulquiorra.

"Of course your not." Ulquiorra said, looking in the other direction. "This is our room."

Ulquiorra lead the way inside and introduced them both to their teacher. Grimmjow didn't tend to do well with people and seemed to put his foot in his mouth. Or at least get extremely pissed off. Damned Maths lessons. If Grimmjow had his way, he would have dropped out of school a long time ago but Ulquiorra tried his best to keep him on the straight and narrow as much as their lives had allowed, however he didn't manage all the time. He was strong and observant but he couldn't watch him constantly, sometimes things just slip through the cracks.

They opened the door and entered the room. Half of Renji's hair had fallen out of his ponytail and his bandana was in his hand, he also had a nice black eye forming and bust lip. Ichigo's lip looked swollen, there was a little blood running from his nose and he looked slightly hunched over. It seemed Ichigo had eventually caught up with Renji and a fight had ensued right there in the corridor. The injuries weren't all they'd got. They also received a detention form the teacher who had had to split the fight up and now, after being yelled at for 10 minutes, were 20 minutes late to class. Mr Kyoraku stopped talking as they entered.

"Ahh, nice of you to join us!" He laughed as he took in the boy's appearances. "Been fighting again boys?"

Renji grinned and nodded as they walked over to their seats next to Shūhei and Yumichika.

"Who caught you this time?" Yumichika asked as they sat down.

"Mr Tōsen, he started spouting some bull about not having to fight and that if we had to then we should wait until we get to Mr Zaraki's class." Ichigo groaned.

Shūhei leaned over the desk to look at them. "He's kind of right you know."

Ichigo stared at him for a couple of seconds before adding a very mature, "Shut up Shūhei."

Silence engulfed the four of them as Renji started retying his hair and Ichigo wiped the blood off his face.

"So we meet again Strawberry."

Ichigo turned to hurl abuse at whoever had called him only to stop and stare.

On the chair beside him sat Grimmjow. He'd been so focused on getting to his seat that he hadn't even noticed him sitting there.

"Don't call me that." He finally managed but with no real conviction in his tone.

"Fine, but I think it's kinda cute," he replied, winking mischievously at Ichigo. Grimmjow knew he shouldn't play around like that but he just couldn't help it. Baiting people was what he did best.

Ichigo's eyes widened and his head snapped forward. He'd never heard someone so forward before, apart from maybe Renji, but even then, Renji had shown very little interest of that form in him anyway, they were best friends.

He heard Grimmjow chuckle as they set to work on the equations Kyoraku had written on the board. He turned his head to look at his friends only to see all three of them staring at him. Shūhei was smirking and Yumichika was snickering behind his hand, but at least they were trying to hide their amusement. Renji was just sitting there with a big shit eating grin on his face. Ichigo had resisted the urge to punch him again.

"So Grimmjow, Ulquiorra," Shūhei said quietly so as not attract the whole classes attention, "How come you had to move to our school?"

Ulquiorra looked up and considered Shūhei.

"We got into a bit of trouble in our old area, so we moved away before things got to serious. Simple as that." Ulquiorra explained, continuing to work as he spoke.

"It's a bit more-"

"But it's not worth the long story." Ulquiorra cut in bluntly.

Grimmjow silenced, sending a glare in Ulquiorra's direction, who seemed completely unfazed by it. He looked around to Ichigo only to catch a glimpse of the orange haired teenager basically drooling as he looked away. Grimmjow knew he was hot, but he'd never met anyone who had had such a strong reaction to him. He didn't judge him though, he was also extremely attracted to the berry head, he just found it easier to hide.

"Sounds interesting, but I hope your not bringing your trouble here," Shūhei laughed, "We get enough as it is."

When the bell rang to signal the end of the lesson, everyone got up and left the room, the guys split off to go to their respective lessons. Renji meandered off in the direction of his History class as Ichigo wandered to Chemistry. The hour seemed to pass by ridiculously slowly and Ichigo found it too hard to concentrate. He spent the whole lesson doodling in his work book. Miss Shihōin, or Yoruichi as she preferred to be called, had to ask him if he was feeling okay. Eventually, the bell rang to signal the end of torture and the beginning of lunch time. Ichigo walked into the crowded lunch hall and found the majority of his friends sitting at their two usual tables. Chad, Uryū, Tōshirō, Orihime, Rukia, Shūhei and Izuru sat on one and Renji, Rangiku, Momo, Yumichika and Ikkaku sat on the other. Ichigo joined Renji's table and started on his food. They would normally go sit on the roof, but the weather was windy today and no one could really be bothered with it.

Idle conversation continued as he sat down, people only stopping their chat to say hi. From the corner of his eye he could see Renji looking at him and, to be honest, he knew that whatever he was thinking about would embarrass him. He was right too.

"So Ichigo, ya seen any nice ass around lately?"

Ichigo chocked on his orange juice as he looked around at Renji, eyes wide and cheeks burning with shock. Ikkaku and Yumichika stopped talking immediately and stared at the two. Although Yumichika and Ikkaku were going out together, they were still intrigued about Ichigo. He'd never had a proper relationship like the others.

Ichigo stuttered, not sure what to say.

"Damn Ichigo, ya need ta stop being so uptight about stuff like this. Ya want to find someone eventually right?"

"I – I guess so…"

"Well that's never gonna change unless ya start being more open about it dude." Renji smiled, clapping Ichigo on the back. He then carried on with his previous point.

"I've seen some decent girls around but nothin particularly special, as for the ass…" He stopped for a second. "I think that Grimmjow and Ulquiorra are hot. More so Grimmjow though." He grinned as turned to Ichigo expectantly. "Well, what do ya think?"

"Thanks for the compliment Renji."

The red head yelped and jumped, accidentally launching himself off the seat and causing him to land on his ass on the floor.

"Dammit! Dude, ya scared the shit outta me! Don't sneak up on me like that ever again."

Grimmjow laughed, watching Renji reach up onto the table and pick up his bottle of water, not even bothering to get up off the floor.

"So Ichigo, what do you think?" Grimmjow asked, loving the way Ichigo's cheeks lit up in embarrassment. He didn't know what it was, but there was something about this boy that, after only 2 or 3 hours, he knew he could really start to like him.

Ichigo stayed silent, looking at Grimmjow in utter shock.

Grimmjow's confident grin faltered as he turned his face away slightly, "I get it, ha, I was only joking," He said trying to laugh it off. He should have known that Ichigo wasn't gay. Now he felt like a complete idiot. He turned to walk away to the table Ulquiorra was sitting at when a shout stopped him.

"I think you're hot!"

Grimmjow turned back to Ichigo to see the boy sitting there like a deer in the headlights. He looked as shocked as Grimmjow did, as if he didn't know what possessed him to say it. Hell, even Renji, who was still sitting on the floor, was looking up at Ichigo like he'd grown another head. This obviously wasn't normal.

Before Grimmjow had a chance to do anything more, Ichigo had grabbed his bag and bolted out of the lunch door like a professional sprinter.

"I've never seen him act like that before…" Yumichika said as he turned back to the table after watching Ichigo's escape.

"Yeah…" Ikkaku said, equally as stunned.

Renji just stared up at Grimmjow stared at the door.

"Dude," Renji said, grabbing Grimmjow's attention as he finally got up. He had a massive grin on his face as he clapped the blue haired boy on the back "Whatever you're doing, keep doing it. This might just be what he needs"

MisaxMisa: Well, what do you guys think? :3

Renji: Oh yeahhhh! *dances*

Ichigo: I'm a man dammit!

Grimmjow: Because it's ladies night!

MisaxMisa: What the hell is wrong with these people?
