My Dear Sweets With Our Fire And Ice: Vol2

Chapter 3: Ichigo's Birthday Plans

~.I Love You As You Love Me, Let's Take It Slow, Calm, So We Don't Regret A Thing.~

It was July 14th; Ichigo awoke with his room blinds opened and the sun caressing his face softly. 'Ughh… I feel crappy again today I wonder why…Hmm…didn't Toshiro say something about me getting out of the house for a few hours…mm…' Ichigo yawned loud and long, sitting up stretching his arms as his back curved in. "God I'm like fricken tired or out of energy...or…something..." He communicated with his walls.

Slowly after what seemed like an hour, he got out of bed dressing up in a 'MNWA' Logo shirt and plain blue jeans. 'I wonder what Toshiro is doing right now, he's of course not in bed still he gets up to fricken early…' His curious mind instead let his body answer that question, slowly roaming through the hall then coming back up in front of his door to go down stairs. "Toshiro?"


"Hmm…vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry creamy stuff…" He let out a loud frustrating groan before running his fingers through his smooth white hair. "This is kind of difficult…he says strawberry is good, then he says chocolates the best, THEN he says vanilla!" he tapped his foot on the store ground trying to pick out his current 'favorite' flavor of the three. "His 'Favorite' is Strawberry" Yakima bent over the small boy, startling him. "Jeez Yakima warn a guy will you, it gets annoying when you do that" His eyes went to the usual furrowing as his arms crossed each other staring at the strawberry cake paste.

Yakima picks a can up placing it into Toshiro's arms, adding a small smile to help the obvious worry expression on his face. "Toshiro…don't worry so much okay? Look, Ichigo would love anything you give him and giving him a surprise party for his birthday, he might go sugar-happy cause it was you who remembered and did everything just for him" she leaned on one leg giving him her full attention. "You think so?...I know Ichigo will love anything I give him cause it's from me no matter what, but I want this to be special for him I want to do more for him as he has for me" Toshiro's voice became low as if it was a secret spilling out to another person. "I believe you can do it Toshiro, he will love it, you will make it special, and he's going to go ballistic!" She gave him a supportive smile. He gave a small secretive smile back to her before finally moving his hand with the pastry and placing it in the hand-held cart.

"Hmm…what else would we need…wait…what do you get when you go to parties or…make one?" Toshiro stood there dumbfounded, forgetting what exactly to get for the soon-to-be-birthday party.


"So Ichigo, since you are out and everything, what do you want to do!" Mazon cheeped, placing a hand on his right shoulder. "Yea...well, since we are out and all…w-where should we um, go?" Yanzo tugged the bottom of his shirt with both his hands looking up to the carrot-head. "Since I'm kicked out of my own house for awhile…what do you say we go to the arcade?" He looked at his two friends whose eyes brightened up like big owl's glistening at fresh food. "Hell yea let's go and you better hurry Yanzo or you're left behind!" Mazon immediately started to run towards the arcade arena. "W-Waiiit Mazon-Kun!" Yanzo half whined and screamed out, starting to hurry his pace ahead of Ichigo. 'I wonder what Toshiro is up to…He's been acting a bit strange for the past 2 days…or...day...Gahh I need a drink to clear myself up I'm so not feeling uppity up today…'


Toshiro stumbled into the household, holding two bags in each hand and a small one in his mouth. Shit, he better still be out I don't want him to see me here looking like a fucken idiot... He gulped hard with a bead of sweat hoping not to be cause in the ridiculous posture.

When he finally reached his room, he placed the bags down on his bed as a cue; he heard the door close shut. 'Is Ichigo back already? Good thing I have the thing's here already… ' Toshiro pulled his pants up abit then made his way downstairs. "Hey Ichigo welcome ba-..what the…?" he stood there looking at a slim tall man with hair like Ichigo's but brown and more down and or slanted and spiky.

"What the hell…wrong house, are you a high school student from one of my classes you seem familiar…" he stepped back once feeling some weird aura in the air, feeling something wasn't right. "Toshiro is it?" "yea what do you want and how the hell you get in here" "Well Toshiro, I'm in your math and science class…I'm here to discuss Ichigo with you, I've knocked but you didn't answer sadly so I came to see if you were hiding or something" he smirked, sticking his hands deep in his school uniform pants. Toshiro scoffed giving him a small look of disgust, "Well if I don't answer there's a reason and you shouldn't just get in a house without permission…'Mr. Kakinada'" he scanned the slim man, vividly remembering him in his classes, he was always the attentive one other than Toshiro, and called on in class.

"Ichigo is with Mazon and Yanzo so you should know" "Well now I do" "Shouldn't you know everything he's doing" "I'm not his mother" "But you're his lover and should watch who's he's with at all times" "what are you getting at Kakinada" Toshiro adjusted against the wall, half interested in the disturbance that won't leave his house.

"Ichigo's been hanging out with Yanzo a lot hasn't he Toshiro-kun?" "Well yes…" his eyes furrowed in confusion.

"He's going through the phase of loving two people Toshiro, that's what"

Toshiro cringed, biting his lip. 'Do I want to hear this, Now of all times? Can I take it?'

"He's been hanging out with him more, to make it look less suspicious he brings that idiotic clown Mazon along, you can't actually think a guy like Ichigo can stay settled for such a long time can you?" he tilts his head, staring deep into the small boy's aqua eyes. "I-Ichigo's not like that!" "and what? Cause you live with him, cook for him, maybe even sleep with him you know him more than anyone else? Toshiro people at out school's known him longer than you have, no matter how long you stay with him" He hides a smirk from the boy.

'W-What? Would Ichigo really do that to me, but we love each other he wouldn't betray me like…like M-Momo…God Ichigo where are you I need answers, is this true, is what Kakinada-san saying true?...' He felt like he was going to lose his mind as questions unanswered kept building up, crowding his brain, his thinking all at once, he felt a jab of pain at the so familiar place that he hoped would never surface again. Betrayal.

Ichigo walks in through the door, quickly stopping as he felt the uncomfortable aura as well. He removes his shoes then opens the next door seeing Toshiro leaning against the wall, confused, scared, pained in front of a tall student he remembers to be in his science class.

"Toshiro" he lowered voice, but both faces turn to him at the same time. One full of pain, as the other showing that it was awkward so he should leave, and so he did, passing Ichigo with a devilish grin.

Ichigo approaches Toshiro in a bolt, holding him by the arms looking deep into the aquas. "Toshiro what happened are you ok?" his voice ringed through the house, silence took hold, only able to hear Toshiro hyperventilating. 'H-How could you Ichigo…is this why you've been abit more distant lately?...'

====FLASHBACK===

Toshiro woke up from the couch, looking at the clock that read 2:30. 'Must have fallen asleep I guess…' he stretched looking through the room but no carrot-top to be found.

He looked through the whole house but his room, Toshiro let out a sigh climbing up the stairs straight up to his room then knocked kind of loud. 'Hey Ichigo you awake yet' he waited for a minute before getting a response. 'Yea Toshiro if you don't need anything then don't bother me thanks' a quick long but short response came. Toshiro gulped hard, 'Oh, yea okay the…' he hung his head low before turning down the hall to go to his room and lay in his bed thinking about how Ichigo's been in his room a lot more, alone, and wanting dinner in his room as well.

His eyes flew open again, 'must of fallen asleep again jeez…' he sat up stretching for awhile before standing in front of Ichigo's room once more, seeing his bedroom light on still his eyes furrowed in annoyance. With a deathly hand on the knob he turned it all the way pushing the door open hard and fast. 'Ichigo what the fuck is wrong with you how rude can you be you don't even come out to see my face every now and then!' he paused, seeing that Ichigo was watching TV on low volume, on discovery channel that has a marathon of haunting on.

'Well Toshiro I was enjoying my TV thank you very much why do you have to be so rude!' he got up standing in front of the boy. 'Me, rude?! Excuse me Ichigo last time I checked you were the one who wouldn't even say hi or give me a hug at least once or even invite me to be with you!' 'well I'm sorry I'm not so girly like you Toshiro get a grip!' Toshiro gawked at him before stepping out. 'See you tomorrow Toshiro' the words feel to death ears when he came to all he saw was Ichigo's down eyes and the door separating them both.

Toshiro stood there, shocked by what just happened, how Ichigo's temper was higher than usual. 'Am I really that bothersome, g-girly?...' his words reached no one but his surroundings as he let his body his against the couch, and slowly with tears not visible to the eyes, he slept as a crying boy.

===END===

Toshiro finally calmed his breathing, looking up to the soft worried chocolates, his vision became blurry, his head started to feel like it's going to have a headache. Ichigo gasped, looking down at his small fragile lover he saw one of the most heartbreaking thing's he never wanted to see, his lover crying. "Why Ichigo why?! I'm so sorry I'm so girlish I just love you I don't want to be 2nd in your heart I don't want to be replaced by Yanzo I'm sorry I can't be normal or cute and innocent like him I can't take this attitude with you!" "Toshiro!" was all Ichigo could say before the small elementary boy ran off out the door.

Toshiro kept running, running as fast as he can without catching attention to himself. He couldn't take what Ichigo was dishing out at him, he couldn't take being the 2nd one Ichigo could love, he couldn't take Love. He stopped at the train station, leaning under a tree soaking wet, panting hard. 'I'm not so mad at you Ichigo…I'm more mad at myself who can't see straight, who's blinded by false hope. I'm mostly mad at myself' He felt a hand grab his shoulder, quickly spinning around he saw Ichigo, panting but keeping stern eyes locked on his own, digging deep into his soul. "Toshiro please let me explain…you're the only one I love trust me, I've been acting weird lately because Yanzo called me telling me how I'm never there for him, missing his calls…that day he was beaten till he bled…I-I was pissed at myself for letting such a thing happen to people who are close to me…I've just been keeping a close eye on him just for in case they came back not satisfied which what they already did…you're my one and only, I don't want anyone else in my arms but you Toshiro, only you…"

He closed his eyes tightly, biting his bottom lip, 'It's so easy to love you Ichigo…it's so hard to believe you love me' Looking up to now soft loving eyes, they embraced each other before Ichigo carried the small boy bridal style back to their household.


Ichigo rubbed the towel on his head like if he was some rug he was cleaning a stain off of. "H-Hey Ichigo you're too rough in no rug!" he pushed his hands away so he could remove the towel. Ichigo busted out laughing instantly, "Oh my fucken god Toshiro you look like Einstein!!" he held his ribs unable to breath. Toshiro laughed likely sadly agreeing with him.

IT was already 10:30 and they were exhausted to the bone from both their long days today. 'Well tomorrow is Ichigo's special day so maybe just this once I can set my pride aside and..' "Hey Ichigo-kuuun~" Toshiro gently pushed him down on the bathroom floor, hugging his hips. "Can I ask you something?" Ichigo blushed madly, trying to restrain his growing member trying to rise up. "Uh, yea sure Shiro-Kun what is it?" Toshiro's cheeks flushed a soft light pink that always made Ichigo want to ravish his body then and there but his will power always won.

"I want to sleep and cuddle with you tonight, you know get use to the whole lover thing if you don't think it's too girly…" he felt so embarrassed saying that so openly he remembered what Ichigo said but before he got any further than that Ichigo spoke. "Of course you can, I was just mad I didn't mean anything by that, I love holding you Shiro, and you're irresistible!"

Toshiro nuzzled Ichigo's neck lovingly, taking a deep breath then letting out a comfortable sigh. Ichigo slowly entered his room laying Toshiro down onto his bed, the small boy hasn't laid here for a while, so soft and warm, just like him. He watched as Ichigo removed his shirt that hugged his body perfectly, seeing a nice tan-toned chest and abs it almost made Toshiro show a face that he was gawking and maybe even slobbering.

They cuddled close to each other; Ichigo wrapped his arms around Toshiro's whole upper half, as Toshiro's hands laid against Ichigo's chest. They were compressed against each other as if trying to become one with one another, "Hey Ichigo…" "Yes Tosh?" "Do you have any plans tomorrow?" "Hmm…not that I think of..." "Good…" "What?" "oh, well just that I want to surprise you so I need you to go out again if you don't mind" "Yea I guess I can have you kick me out of my own house one more time to see what devilish plan you have in mind" "pfft that's so nice of you to say Baka" "I know it's fun" "yea whatever, tomorrow is going to be a long day so get some rest" "okay…goodnight Shiro" "Night Carrot-Top Baka".
