Ichigo roughly stood and told his old man to shut it, when he once again caught a glimpse of the hysterical Rukia laughing her ass off.He just threw her another glare and went to grab the phone.

He shoved the phone in her face and told her to call her brother when she didn't realise what the phone was for.After this he had gone over to his father who was still prancing around telling about grandbabies and swiftly kicked him in the face, leaving ishiin on the floor rolling around in pain.After a little while a voice pipped up.

"Ichigo, my brother wishes to know your address" Rukia asked.He nodded and told her his address which she relayed to Byakuya.

Rukia hung up the phone and proceeded to gather her things.Her brother said he'd be their in five minutes.

She bowed slightly to Ichigo "Thank you, for helping me out" She said sheepishly, still embarrassed she got herself lost and hurt.

There was a knock on the door and Ichigo opened it to see a tall man with long dark hair wearing a suit standing.

"Hello" Byakuya greeted.

"Hey" Ichigo replied.

"Is Rukia ready to go" He asked.Rukia popped out from nowhere and greeted her brother along with an apology.

"It is ok Rukia, lets go" Byakuya said.

"Ok, Umm I'll see you tomorrow" She said to Ichigo and he smiled at her causing her to blush a little, she didn't know why.Byakuya noticed the little exchange of looks going on and frowned slightly.They had only just moved here.How could she be interested in someone already.He thought to himself.He continued frowning and directed it to the orange hair boy.Without another word he retreated back to his car and Rukia followed.

Once in the car Byakuya asked flat-out if she liked him.Rukia blushed at this question but answered truthfully "I don't know Nii-sama".

Byakuya returned to his thought of Rukia's last boyfriend.He never wanted what happened to her to happen again.She had been hurt dearly, she refused her last boyfriends attempts for sex and when she did he got angry and hit her then proceeded to force himself on her.After that Rukia had never been the same bubbly naive girl she once was, which infuriated Byakuya to no end.He loved Rukia because of her happy and welcoming nature, the way she took each day was filled with confidence.But after that incident she became withdrawn and depressed, not to mention scared at any physical contact that was given to her, whether it was a handshake or a pat on the head.Said boy had been charged with rape, but since he was only sixteen he didn't go to jail.He had to serve one year in juvi and had to stay atleast 200 metres away from Rukia at all times courtesy of a restraining order.Over the last 7 months Rukia had slowly gotten her confidence back, with help ofcoarse.For about 3 months after the incident Rukia would attend therapy 4 times a week.But the real thing that had helped her confidence skyrocket was the self defence classes Byakuya had Rukia attend everyday.She had gradually come out of her protective shell that she cocooned herself in.Rukia had also enjoyed her classes so much that she asked him to enroll her in some Karate lessons, which paid off because Rukia had been a sort of prodigy in fighting.She reached a masters level in under a year.Byakuya just hoped that she would never let anything like that happen to herself again, and never be fooled by hormonal boys into doing such things.

Byakuya thought back to the orange haired teen and wondered if Rukia had a thing for brightly coloured haired boys.He decided to himself that he would keep a better eye on this Ichigo character if their relationship ventures further than friendship.

They pulled up home, which was quiet a big home since their family was well off.Ever since His parents had died Byakuya had inherited all of their hotel chains along with their millions of dollars.At the age of twenty just one year after his parents passing he fell in love with a beautiful young woman by the name of Hisana.Within six months of dating Hisana they wed and Byakuya had adopted Hisana's sister as his sister,so that if anything were to happen to Hisana she would know Rukia would still have family,Because both of Hisana and Rukia's parents had died when they were younger.In a horrible turn of events one year after the wedding Hisana had died from a disease.This is how Rukia came to be his sister.

When they got inside they went their separate ways, and would probly not see one another until dinner.


Ichigo closed the door after Rukia had exited.' What the hell ' He thought remembering the frown Rukia's brother had directed at him.He was only helping.After a bit of thought he dismissed it as nothing to worry about.

Later that night Ichigo had been trying to do his homework when his thoughts traveled back to the 'accidental' kiss with Rukia.All he could think about from then on is how soft her lips were and how he wanted to taste them again.His mind turned to wonderment at how he never pays any attention to girls in THOSE ways but one simple action from Rukia and he couldn't stop thinking about it.After mentally slapping those thoughts from his head and got on with his homework.

"ICHI-NI...DINNERS READY" Yuzu called out.Ichigo hurriedly made his way down stairs to the kitchen and sat down at the table.Admist the three Kurosaki's scoffing and Yuzu eating normally Ishiin proceeded to prod his son about Rukia.

"So Ichigo, do you like Rukia-Chan" He asked with a smile.

"As a friend" Ichigo replied.

"OH so do you lurrrve Rukia-Chan" Ishiin cooed.

Ichigo scoffed "It would be hard to love that midget".After that comment he went back to thinking about her soft lips pressing against his and how he wanted it to happen again.In his dreamy like state he never noticed his father trying to get his attention.After he snapped out of it his father made another comment.

"Jeez son you must REALLY like her to be day dreaming about her" He said.

His only reply was a "whatever" and Ichigo went back upstairs to further more daydream about Rukia.

--

Just like Ichigo, Rukia's thoughts were on the 'accidental' kiss they shared.She couldn't help but notice his scent with the close proximity, he smelt like pure masculinity.Then her thoughts traveled to that of his lips, his taste.He tasted like candy, she couldn't help but giggle at that.And when she had said goodbye he had smiled at her, the smile was so gorgeous it had melted her heart.She knew that she wanted NO needed to see that smile again.Rukia drifted off to sleep with her thoughts still on Ichigo.

--

Ichigo woke up to the sound of thumping and then his door being abruptly opened.

"FLYING DRAGON KICK" Ishiin yelled as he propelled across the room aiming for his son with his foot.Ichigo dodged the kick and punched his dad in the face.

"Ahhh thats maboy" Ishiin congratulated his son.

"STUPID GOAT CHIN,WHO DOES THAT" Ichigo yelled at Ishiin, only to meet a confused look.

"what do you mean my son" Ichigo's eyes widened at his stupid father.

"WHAT DO I MEAN YOU IDIOT? WHO FIRGGIN ATTACKS THEIR KIDS IN THERE BEDS" He screamed.

"Ahhh but I'm only testing your skills" Ishiin replied.

Ichigo scoffed."Whatever, get out I need to change" Ishiin then left his son to change.

Because of yesterdays events Byakuya had insisted on giving Rukia a ride to school and back.Rukia really didn't want to get dropped off by her brother, for the simple fact that she didn't want people to know that she was wealthy.People tend to treat her differently when they know shes well off.And with her brother dropping her off in his Lamborghini Murcielago people would be certain to know.But no matter how much she argued, he was going to drop her off.

Rukia got dressed and made her way down to the car where Byakuya was waiting.The car ride had been silent and when they pulled up to the school he spoke.

"Be careful, and have a good day" He said the first part with as much pleading as his non-existing expressiveness would allow.

"I will Nii-Sama and you too" She smiled and exited the car.Byakuya drove off.

As she made her way to the entrance of the school, she could already hear whispers.

"WOW she must be rich"

"She probly thinks she's better than us"

"I wonder who the hottie was driving"

"Who is she, she must be new"

"Prissy bitch"

Rukia's eyes widened at the last comment.These people don't even know me and there judging me.She felt sorry for them, since obviously they had nothing better to then talk about her.As she reached the door she heard someone call out her name, now what she thought.She turned around to see a mess of orange hair making its way towards her."Ichigo" She called back.Which probably wasn't the best idea, because now people weren't just talking about her being wealthy but now they were all watching or glaring at her and Ichigo talking.

"Sup" He said as the proceeded into the school.

"Nothing much" He raised an eyebrow.

"Nothing much aii then why is everybody staring at you" He asked looking around at all the students eyeing them.

"My brother dropped me off today and the students took note of his car" She replied, still trying to avoid peoples gazes.

"Huh" Ichigo asked fully confused.He may be male but he knows jack shit about cars so he didn't take notice of how expensive it was.

"The car is a very expensive car, and from that they gathered that I'm rich" She replied to his confused expression.

"OHHH I didn't think so many girls would glare at you for being rich" Ichigo said rubbing the back of his neck.

"BAKA their not glaring at me because of that" She said "Their glaring at me because I'm walking with YOU".Ichigo now looked so confused it was cute.

"I think you have some fans Ichigo" She teased.

"Shutup" He mumbled.

They went to their classroom and sat in their assigned seats.They were there early so not many students were in the classroom.Rukia started taking out her notepad and pen, as did Ichigo.After he did he stood and excused himself to the bathroom.

Rukia sat there alone staring off into space until she heard voices coming closer to the classroom.So she opened a random page in her book and pretended to be doing something.She quickly took a look to see who had entered.It was a group of four girls, then she looked bad to her workbook.She looked up again when a shadow was cast upon her desk signaling someone was standing infront of her.

"Can I help you with something" She asked in her fake sweet voice.

"Yeah I'm Senna, your Kuchiki Rukia right" The girl Senna asked rather venomously.

"Hai I am, what can I do for you" She asked choosing to ignore Senna's tone of voice.

"I'm just letting you know that I already have dibs on Kurosaki, so back off" Senna told Rukia.

"I'm sorry if you've gotten the wrong idea, but me and Ichigo are just friends" Rukia replied still in a sweet voice.

"I'm just telling you now so you know not to make any advances, I'd hate to have to hurt that pretty face of yours" Senna remarked as a smirk appeared on her face.

Now severely pissed Rukia glared.If their was one thing she did not appreciate it was threats.

"No offence Senna was it? But I don't care much for empty threats, so why don't you just go back to where you came from" Rukia told her as she stood, now eye to eye with Senna.

"Empty threats.I could break every bone in your body you little bitch" Senna hissed.

"Alright then do it, since you so obviously want to" Rukia laughed a little.

Senna seamed to have steam coming out of her ears. "How bout this, lunchtime you and me the school dojo, and we'll see who'll be laughing" Rukia agreed to her stupid fight arrangement knowing that she could kick her ass, but still wanted to do it because Senna was a mole and plus she hadn't had a good fight in ages.

Ichigo walked back into class and took his seat.He looked over to Rukia who was happily drawing chappy bunnies all over her workbook.She turned her head noticing he was looking at her and caught his gaze, they stared at eachother for a minute or two.Brown auburn eyes looked into violet ones.They both looked away and blushed a little.Senna saw this display and stared to fume 'Your mine Kuchiki'.

The days classes flew by and soon enough it was lunch.Rukia didn't know where the school dojo was so she decided to ask Ichigo.

"Ichigo, where is the schools dojo?" She asked not really caring if he wanted to come and watch.Actually she would like him to, so she can impress him.

Ichigo raised an eyebrow "Why? I didn't take you for the fighting type" He teased.

"Well actually Senna challenged me to a fight so that's why I'm going" She replied.Ichigo's mouth dropped wide open.

"Y-You cant do that, she'd kill you" He said horrified.

"Oh and why not?" She asked.

"She's the schools second best female karate fighter" He replied.

"Alwell all the reason to get their on time, to not piss her off more" Rukia suggested.

"I cant believe your going to fight her, and what did you do to piss her off? It's only your second day" He asked.

"She told me that she had dibs on you and to stay away or she'll hurt my pretty face,then I old her I don't like empty threats and she suggested a fight at lunch so I agreed" She finished non-chalantly.

Ichigo's face fell once again "Y-You mean your fighting over me" He asked.

"Well she's fighting for you, I'm fighting for the chance to smack that mole in the face" She smirked over him thinking she was fighting for him.But was she? Rukia asked herself and thought that she wasn't but in a way she was.She was fighting Senna to be able to stay close to Ichigo and to keep Senna away from him.But she wouldn't admit that.

"Ok...ay I'll take you but if anything bad starts to happen im pulling you out" He said as he lead away from the classroom.

Rukia lightly punched him on his arm "And what makes you think I'll be the one needing help?"

Ichigo scoffed "Common midget your gonna be late" With that he picked up the pace and Rukia followed obediently.

When they reached the dojo and noticed a huge crowd of people.Apparently news of the "New rich girl" fighting Senna had gotten out and almost their entire year was their waiting to watch the fight.

Rukia pushed her way threw to the front with Ichigo in tail to find Senna.Rukia noticed said girl talking to her group of friends about how funny its gonna be to fight Rukia.So she decided to go and stretch.

"You dont have to do this you know" Ichigo pleaded.

"Yes I do, plus It'll give me a chance to show people not to mess with me" Rukia smiled triumphantly.

Everyone soon went quiet as Rukia and Senna got into position.Ichigo backed away so he wasn't in range of being hit, but remained at the front of the group of spectators.

Rukia and Senna said their "words" to eachother.

"I'll brake you, then you'll go crying back to daddy" Senna said.

"Shut up you stupid bitch and get on with it" Rukia replied with a smirk.

Senna then moved forward with much speed and made to kick Rukia in the side.Rukia quickly put her arm out to block, then pushed back slightly on Senna's leg.Senna then made to punch her,Rukia getting sick of blocking already, blocked her punch and held her arm to the side using her left hand and with her right she punched Senna flat handed in the chest and knocked the wind out of her.OOOO's and AAAAA's were heard in the dojo as Senna regained her balance.

"You bitch" Senna screamed as she charged at Rukia.Lost in fury she lunged for Rukia's throat.Rukia caught both of her hands and pulled them over her left shoulder effectively bringing Senna closer and kicked her HARD with her right leg.Once again Senna went stumbling back with the wind knocked out of her.Rukia smiled and looked around at all the open jawed,wide-eyed faced gawking at her.

"She's so little, how could she be so brutal"

"WOW she really good"

"Finally someone to shut-up Senna" Rukia laughed at the last comment she heard, then turned her attention back to Senna.

"Why don't you just give up Senna, you know you've lost" Rukia said.

"I'm not going to lose to you" Senna fumed, she started running forward again and made a grab for Rukia only to meet the ground.Rukia side stepped Senna's grab and watched her fall to the ground.Senna then felt a pain in her back.Rukia was now sitting on Senna's back, she was playing with her now.

"Look you've lost just admit it" Rukia asked.

Senna huffed "FINE"

Rukia got of of her and moved back so Senna could get up.When Senna looked at Rukia she just couldn't stand losing to her and made to punch her in the face.Rukia assuming something would happen because Senna was a sore loser ducked and after Senna fists past the space where her face was she grabbed her arms and punched upward on Senna's chin.Rukia looked down at Senna's passed out form. 'OOPS' She thought, 'Didn't mean to punch that hard' Rukia smirked non the less and turned around to meet Ichigo's surprised face.She walked over to him.He was just staring at her.

"What are you staring at" She asked as if nothing happened.

"You just knocked out Senna" He commented.

Rukia nodded "Yes, I'm aware of that"

"Rukia, what level are you at in karate" He asked knowing that she MUST do karate because of her technique.

"Master" She replied with a wave of her hand.

Ichigo's jaw dropped and his eyes bulged "M-Master" He repeated just to make sure.She nodded.

"WOW that's so cool, you should be in the schools karate club" He told her.

"I already am" She replied giving Ichigo another shock.

"Jeez, that was quick"

"Yeah I suppose"

Lunch ended and the school day progressed with many people having a new found fondness of Rukia and congratulating her on her win.
