CHAPTER TWO
Saturday
(Grimmjow)
What Grimmjow was about to do was probably above and beyond stupid-He should turn back now and forget all about-
'Ah who gives a fuck-I'm just taking a peak-just enough to see if he's grown and inch or two since I've last seen him. I'm not going to reveal myself I just want
"Who's out there?"
A voice. Female.
Grimmjow may be many things but a coward was not one of them-he most definitely would not run off and hide. No he would step out into the early morning sunlight and
"Greetings I seem to have fallen asleep in your back yard while I was looking for my cat."
The woman with copper, honeycomb and brass curls eyed him suspiciously-not that Grimmjow could blame her-
'Looking for my cat of all things? Could I be any dumber?'
As our favorite blue haired smartass bashes himself inwardly he fails to notice that the woman, Kurosaki Masaki, is quickly approaching him-and it is not until he feels a sharp pain of his finger being bent back when realizes she's not buying his bullshit line for a minute.
A lesser man would probably squeal about the pain-this is not to say that Grimmjow doesn't feel pain for he does but-
Taking one look into those eyes that are so very similar and yet so entirely different from his former rival-he grins
Briefly registering the pain that has now blossomed past his fourth finger and now moving into his wrist as he slips into another memory

FLASHBACK
Junior Year
Rumors. Ah some of the best fights are the result of rumors. The best part was the woman was such a slutty cougar anyway that it hadn't taken much to convince everyone to believe his lies.
"You fucking sick piece of shit!"
The sound of footsteps could be heard.
"I'LL KILL YOU!"
The angry roar that could only belong to Kurosaki Ichigo, Grimmjow's one true rival.
Eyes fierce, nostril's flaring, Grimmjow barely had time stub his cigarette out as a blur of black and orange charged towards him.
'But of course Kurosaki is too fuckin' noble to attack me from behind.'
Blood flew out of Grimmjow's mouth as his rival's fist connected with his face.
He sneered. "Take it that means you got my little present eh Strawberry Princess?"
Brown eyes had gone from fierce to positively murderous-Grimmjow staggered a bit as a second fist hit his face.
He spat out another glob of blood and continued taunting the orange haired teen. "Pack quite a punch for such a lil prin-
Grimmjow hadn't even been able to finish his sentence-
"You sick (punch) son of a bitch (punch punch punch) I can't believe I (punch)
Rage 100 percent pure RAGE!
Grimmjow found himself fascinated-sure he had fought Kurosaki before-kicked the smaller boy's ass from here all the way to the next town and back-and sure the orange haired teen had his own share of victories (something Grimmjow really rather not think about) but this-
Kurosaki's chest was heaving, every fine muscle in that lovely lithe physique (yeah he'd admit it in his own head at least-the boy was a looker-) had tightened, the way the one singular vein on his neck was twitching, throbbing, calling for Grimmjow's attention-nay demanding it!
"DO YOU HEAR ME YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE?"
"Actually nah I was lost in your beauty if you'd kindly repeat you're words I-
(Punch) (Punch) (Punch)
The boy had abandoned Grimmjow's face and was attacking his abdomen, pummeling at it continuously as though he were a fucking punching bag at the gym.
'Stranger thing is I'm not even hitting him back.'
"Fight back you bastard! Give me a reason to-
"A reason to what Kurosaki?"
Grimmjow grabbed his rival's hands-squeezing the smaller wrists until they went still and the boy winced slightly.
The rage was still there but it had simmered a bit-shifting into pain and disbelief?
Grimmjow furrowed his brows. 'Is it possible he might-?
Pain blossomed on his right knee cap, then another to his shin, knocking him off balance
Kurosaki always was a crafty fighter
Flat on his back with his rival practically straddling him.
Grimmjow grinned and earned a black eye as the orange haired boy hit his face once more.
And then his rival did something quite unexpected.
"Why did you do it Grimmjow?"
"Why did I go after the music teacher? Maybe cuz I fuckin' felt like it!"
"You're lying! Tell me the truth!"
Grimmjow snorted in disbelief. "Are you fuckin' kiddin' me Kurosaki?"
"Does it look like I'm joking you bastard?"
Grimmjow grinned cockily "What can I say? Bitch had it comin' to her. Easy target, it was no secret that-
"WHAT?"
Ah the angry roar once again-if Grimmjow didn't know better he'd swear his rival was part animal-
"Don't fuckin sit there and grin at me. You just cost an innocent woman her career, you destroyed her reputation, and possibly even her marriage!"
"Wake the fuck up Kurosaki! That bitch ain't no woman. She's a cougar-a cougar who was only 2 more lessons away from turning you into a real boy."
Orange brows furrowed in confusion. And then a minute or two later brown eyes narrowed. "What the fuck is that supposed to mean?"
Heavens above his rival was so painfully clueless at times. Grimmjow felt another grin break out onto his swollen face.
"Tch. Didn't mommy dearest ever tell you about the temptress in the garden, Kurosaki?"
At the mention of his mother the brilliant raging fire returned to Kurosaki's eyes once more. "You leave my mother out of this!"
Grimmjow wanted to laugh. He wanted to laugh loud enough to wake the fucking dead. As it was-
"Why would I want to do that? This all started because of her."
"WHAT? WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SAY ABOUT MY MOTHER? WAIT! HOW THE FUCK DO YOU EVEN KNOW MY MOTHER? JUST HOW TWISTED AND DEGRANGED ARE YOU?"
"Everyone knows about the lovely, bright and talented Kurosaki Masaki. Envied by groups of women half her age and every man who has a healthy libido drool at the mere sight of her beauty. But her heart only belongs to one, her son, her perfect Ichigo. The ideal mother/son bond. Let's write a screen play about them." Grimmjow recited in an out of character high pitched tone before sneering "Ugh! Gut me why doncha?"
"What the hell does any of that have to do with anything? I love my mother, so what?"
A scoff. "There's love and then there's love and you strawberry princess couldn't be more obvious, it's written all over your damn face!"
"Are you suggesting that I-are you? (cue the flying fist once more-when he had let go of his rivals wrists Grimmjow honestly couldn't say-
"I CAN'T FUCKING BELIEVE THAT YOU WOULD MAKE THAT KIND OF ACCUSATION ABOUT-NO YOU KNOW WHAT FUCK IT! I DO BELIEVE IT." Eyes blazing "IF IT ISN'T ONE THING ITS ANOTHER THING. ARE YOU THAT FUCKING BORED AND MISERABLE THAT YOU HAVE TO ATTACK MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY MOTHER?"
"You brought this on yourself Kurosaki."
"I-what the fuck do you mean by that Grimmjow?"
"Couldn't have the real thing so you had to go and get yourself someone who closely resembled her and I gotta say you've got quite an eye for it-
His rival looked sick and horrified at the same time.
"Are you saying that I not only have a mother complex but that I purposely signed up for music lessons with Rangiku-san because she resembles my mother from certain angles?"
"Congratulations, give the strawberry princess a prize."
"Fuck you!"
"No fuck you but only when you beg for it. Then I'll bleed you nice and slow."
The time for talk was over apparently-as his rival climbed off him and shifted into a street-fighting stance.
Grimmjow stayed right where he was. "Don't you wanna hear the rest of my little tale Kurosaki?"
"No I wanna break your fuckin neck so get the fuck up!"
"Nah I think I'll just take a nap right here. You can stand there and continue being my personal parasol-my how thoughtful you are shielding my greatness from the sun."
The orange haired boy wasn't laughing.
Obviously.
And despite his words and stance he stood there with his arms crossed.
Grimmjow amused himself with the image of his rival standing inside his kitchen with an apron on and a spatula in one hand-the orange strawberry would scold him for eating the pie with out using a fork and-
"I SAID GET THE FUCK UP!"
Hands (strong but smaller than his own) gripped the hood on Grimmjow's jacket, pulling, forcing him to his feet.
"Can't seem to keep your hands of me today eh Kurosaki?"
His rival shoved him.
"Don't be shy now strawberry princess it's high time we moved past first base anyway."
Red bloomed on his rival's cheeks. It was all too fitting. "Shut the fuck up and fight me!"
Electric blues flashed. "Make me."
ANGRY ROAR!
Kurosaki was looking more and more like a caged animal-he almost wanted to ask his rival where he was hiding his tail?
As the orange haired boy continued to stand there looking angrier than ever-Grimmjow let his mind wander back to where it truly started-his real reason-the reason he wouldn't dare tell his rival-
()()()
The anniversary date of his own mother's death was coming up-just 24 hours away and Grimmjow was in a seriously fucking pissed off mood. If someone so much as breathed on him or looked at him too long he'd fuckin' lose it!
His aura was probably darker than a fuckin' black tunnel at the moment.
Naturally most people were wise enough to stay out of his way.
Key word here is MOST-
Certainly didn't stop him-
His rival practically skipping through the town with his mommy dearest-Grimmjow couldn't fucking stand it. Couldn't stand the way they laughed as they selected 2 identical grapefruits in the grocery isle. Couldn't stand as the happy mother and son danced towards the cash register with dopey grins on their flawless faces.
And on his way out of the supermarket he saw her-
Forever bubbly and sparkly eyed. Matsumoto Rangiku. She was as sweet as she was pretty. Nicknamed "TILF" Boys would sign up for her class just so they could check out her eye popping jugs when she bent over to pick up her baton. From certain angles she could pass as a cousin or possible younger sister of Kurosaki's mother. Dear sweet auntie Rangiku.
He would destroy her life.
Spread rumors that her little after school private lessons had nothing to do with reading music sheets or practicing scales.
Au contraire- she was acting inappropriately with her male students.
()()
And when that wasn't enough Grimmjow enlisted a little extra help from his boys.
Szayel and Illfort, two transfers like himself.
The perks of coming from another county? Speaking in a language that very few if any could understand.
Szayel was on the school newspaper and Illfort was a member of the student council.
Together the fraternal twins had written an article entitled 'Keep your pants on because there's a GD COUGAR ON THE LOOSE!'

Truthfully Grimmjow wasn't too happy with his own actions-he probably had over done it but jealousy and grief does that to a person.
He targeted his rival or people that his rival cared out because in the end
'We're so fucking similar. Me and him.'
He'd known it since the first day. Back when he first met the Strawberry Princess.
Not that he'd admit it out loud.
'At least not yet.'
"So princess are you going to make good on your promise and kill me or are you just gonna continue to stand there and admire the sexiness that is me?"
Like clockwork the orange haired boy charged-this time Grimmjow met his rival head on-Butting heads like fucking bulls-
His own head swam but he didn't give a damn.
This was the way things should be.
Trading blows with his number 1 rival.
Course if he was going to be honest with himself Kurosaki was his number one everything but-
()()
"I won't let you harm my son."
Grimmjow frowned he didn't remember that part happening in-oh wait
Back to reality!
Kurosaki Masaki. He would have thought the woman would have forgotten all about him but-
Apparently not.
"Why are you here? What do you want with Ichigo?" Soft eyes hardened "If you've come to tease him about his new path in life then I will-
"I'm not er-
"Very few people in the world have electric blue hair and I have lived in Karakura Town for many years and in that time I have only seen one with electric blue hair. So tell Grimmjow Jeagerjaques what do you want with my son?"
"Just to see him, maybe have a friendly chat catch up or something."
To hell with being manly! He should run. He should run while the woman-
Pain flares in his wrist again. She is demanding his attention.
Electric blues meet honey and amber.
After a moment of silence the woman speaks again
"Ichigo is not home. But even if he was I wouldn't let you see him."
"Listen lady you ca-
"No you listen to me boy (Grimmjow flinches-he hasn't been called that in years) if you want to speak with my son then you will have to have coffee with me first."
Um okay. He totally wasn't expecting that.
"Uh but he could come back any minute right and then you're little threat would be kind of pointless now wouldn't it?"
He couldn't believe he was being cheeky with a woman who could quite possibly castrate him on the spot!
But at the same time he wasn't going to let a woman push him around either!
Her pretty face went from a glare to a full-blown smirk. "I never said you would have coffee with me inside the house. You haven't earned that right." She released his wrist. "We will go to a café and you will tell me all about yourself and why you think I should let you date my son."

(Ichigo)
Sunday…
Baby showers. A celebration that no woman ages 16-100 could resist. But Ichigo wasn't a fucking woman!
So why in the hell had he been dragged to a baby shower?
Because underneath their angelic appearances Rukia and Inoue were freakin' demons from hell!
"Oh I do hope Nel-chan likes the gifts I bought for her."
"There not for her, it's for her unborn baby and she'll love them."
"Oh do you really think so Kuchiki-san?"
"I know so and stop calling me 'Kuchiki-san' now that we're together you should be calling me Rukia or Miss Bunny Fufu."
"Sorry it's still a little weird I mean for so long I-
Ichigo could hear the sound of lips smacking-which meant Rukia and Inoue were making out once again.
He was suddenly glad that the raven-haired girl had handed him several packages-forcing him to look at his feet so he wouldn't crash into anything.
Still-they were out in broad day light and anyone could-
"Can't you wait until you get home to do that?"
The two women giggled before pulling apart.
"You have no reason to be jealous Ichigo. In 5 days time you'll be the center piece in an all beef buffet."
"Oh Kurosaki-kun I'm so happy you've finally come to terms with who you're meant to be."
"And just think all it took was a nasty bitch in crotch-less panties."
"How the hell did you find out ab-(Ichigo stopped mid sentence as things started to sink in. "What the hell Rukia? How could you do that to me?"
"I don't know what you're talking about Ichigo not even I would sink that low to pull you out of your denial."
"I wasn't in de-I never-arggg!"
"Don't be upset Kurosaki-kun. Baby Showers are supposed to be a happy event."
"That's right and just think in 10 years you'll adopt some babies and throw a shower of your own."
"Oh I do hope you decide to adopt girls. It would be so cute, you could put them in matching dresses and-
"I do not want to adopt a baby so just stop!"
"You say that now but once you find you'll change your mind."
"Mm hmm and oh just imagine when they grow older they'll have a joint wedding and-
"STOP!"
Ichigo stopped walking and dropped the packages on purpose so he could glare at the duo.
"Listen Inoue, Rukia I know you guys are just trying to support me in your unique way but it's not-I mean I don't want to talk about weddings and babies when I haven't even-
"Oh I see. Oh Ichigo you poor thing. Never fear we will put your mind at ease right now." The raven-haired woman reached into her bag and pulled out her cell-phone, quickly dialing a number."
"Hello could you give me the number to Cupid's Escorts."
What the hell was she doing?
Ichigo looked up at the sky asking for help from whoever was listening.
All this talk of babies conjured up another memory from the past

FLASHBACK
Sexual Education-Miss Mashiro Style!
This is what the sign on the door read. Who ever dared to enter would soon find that after this course they would never look at sexual education the same way again.
Kuna Mashiro is a carefree caffeine-addicted woman. With her apple and lime green colored hair, hazel eyes and colorful wardrobe, she is a favorite amongst the students.
But for a teacher she doesn't quite fit the professional mold. Preferring to let her students dress out of code, play loud music and call her by her first name.
She strongly encourages her students to explore all sides of their sexuality-
"For there are no rules in the land of love. And you should never deny yourself happiness just because society fails to understand that maybe you don't want to live in a big beautiful house with a white picket fence, two cats, a dog, 2 children and 1 SUV. Perhaps you want to live on an island where only you, your lover and your prized peacock are allowed. Perhaps you don't wish for love at all but would rather dedicate your life to Mother Earth or Coven of some sort. Loving yourself is just as important as loving some one else. Never forget that!"
She clapped her hands together. "Now I'm going to break you up into groups of 4 and tomorrow I have a big surprise planned for all of you."
"You know Mashiro-san wouldn't be half bad if she didn't talk to us like we were 6 years old." Ichigo whispered to Renji who was sitting next to him.
The tattooed redhead snorted, "At least she didn't hand us a banana and a condom and show us how to slide it on."
"Well you wouldn't have need for that any way seeing as you two fruits are dickless!"
"What the fuck was that? Come here and say that to my face you-
"Sit down Renji, those guys aren't worth it."
Ichigo was pissed too but he really didn't feel like fighting-let alone even looking at his blue haired rival and his cronies today.
"Yes better sit down cherry pineapple wouldn't want to get the wittle wifey all upset."
Ichigo was oh so tempted to rise up out of his chair, fly over seats in order to get to his cocky rival. But he remained seated.
"Now, now Grimmjow you shouldn't attack Kurosaki and Abarai-kun for something they have no control over."
Szayel Grantz-Cotton candy pink hair, amber eyes, as uber fucking flamboyant as they came and yet he had the gall to attack Renji and himself!
Ichigo just didn't get what the fuck Szayel and Grimmjow hoped to accomplish with their childish taunts and-
In a flash blue and white was in his face.
"Cat got your tongue strawberry princess or are you once again basking in the glow of my godly light?"
Grimmjow and his stupid grin-How Ichigo wished to rise up out of his seat and punch his rival but he found that lately whenever he wished to rise something else would rise-and there was no way in hell he was going to let his rival see that!
So he just snarled out the nastiness thing that could come to mind "Maybe if you spent less time looking at yourself in the mirror and more time brushing your teeth I wouldn't have to feel like gagging every time you put your damn fish breath in my face!"
This was a lie of course. For his rival smelled like brand new leather, winter air and nicotine but Ichigo rather not think about how good Grimmjow smelled-it would only make his 'not so little' problem under the desk worse.
He heard Renji laugh as the rest of the class "Ooh-ed"
And then before Ichigo could properly blink his rival had picked him up and slammed him face first into the classroom window-
Blood poured down his face. He was glad it hadn't shattered for that would have been much worse.
At the same time was it really necessary for his rival to stand so close in order to slam him-
'Hasn't he heard of personal space?'
()()()
"Itsugo you came!"
Ichigo stumbled as a sea green and hazel blur came crashing into him. Pregnant belly and all Nel still had endless energy. She was grinning from ear to ear. "Nel's so glad-I mean I'm so glad you came!"
She squeezed him hard before releasing him.
"Uh happy baby shower Nel." He handed her a small package- it had been carefully wrapped in hot pink tissue paper with white polka dots.
She squeezed him again and then ushered the trio into the house."

FLASHBACK RESUME
Ichigo was glad for the blood because at least it would cover up his blush-
He wanted to mentally kick himself-sure Grimmjow had slammed him into plenty of hard surfaces in the past and he retaliated by knocking his rival off a ladder, ropes, a flight of stairs-it was just like a routine-a rule really-they throw insults at each other and then they throw fists at each other-crashing into buildings, parks, anything and everything.
But not once had he ever felt so damn-
'This has to stop-there's no way in hell I'm attracted to this jackass.'
Fucking hormones creeping up on him like some unwanted disease.
'I better fucking get it together before he finds another reason to taunt me.'
With this thought in mind Ichigo forced both his blush and his hard-on to disappear-
His rival was gloating. His stupid lackies cheering him on.
Ichigo took this opportunity to wipe the blood from his face with the sleeve of his shirt and then let out an angry roar
"GRIMMJOW!"
Ever the predictable Grimmjow grinned and then made a 'come at me' motion with his hand.
Which only further fueled Ichigo's anger.
For the next 10-15 minutes it was nothing but a blur of blue and white vs black and orange.
Punch for Punch. Jab for Jab. Strike for Strike. Blow for Blow.
Bruised, bloody and full of rage-!
So lost in the heated battle was he, Ichigo barely noticed the crunching sound-
And it wasn't until he heard a scream (Inoue)
That it dawned on him-the blue haired bastard had re-broken his ankle.
()()()
'Just my luck-a broken ankle and being forced to team up with him for this stupid project.'
"I'm not tickled pink about this either Strawberry Princess but look we just gotta watch the brats for a few hours right? I'll take them on some of the roller coasters and you sit here and set up the picnic."
"Screw that! We're gonna go take the brats on the roller coasters while you to stay here and set up the picnic right Ichigo?"
There was only one real plus side to this whole little project-adventure-experiment-lesson-whatever.
Miss Mashiro had put them in groups of 4 which sucked but at least Renji was with him.
Although he hadn't had much time to chat with the tattooed redhead because Szayel had taken it upon himself to-
"Nonsense Abarai-kun you and I will take the children on the roller-coasters while Kurosaki and Grimmjow stay here and continue making moon eyes at each other."
Okay
WTF?
"What the hell is wrong with you ya damn pepto-freak? Can't you be normal for like one day?"
"That's calling the kettle black isn't it Abarai-kun?"
"Fuck you! Come on Ichigo let's go!"
Ichigo did not move from his spot in the grass. Nor did he say a word. He couldn't quite put his finger on it but there seemed to be something different about the way the way Renji and Szayel were interacting today.
He noticed it earlier too while they were on the bus but chalked it up to being his imagination-
But the more he watched the pepto and the pineapple go at it the more he started reading in between the lines so-to-speak.
'Is something going on between Renji and that guy? If there is did it just start or has it been going on for a while? He's awfully red right now and did Szayel just purr? Is that what I look like when I'm-
"Keh, these two are like an old married couple I swear."
Why the hell did Grimmjow suddenly decide to sit down and join him in the grass?
Why the hell did he notice?
Maybe because he always noticed his rival.
Still-
"Renji it's for the kids. Just go with him and-
"What? Ichigo are you-you can't be serious man I don't want to go with-can you please stop invading my space?"
"Are you sure that's what you really want Abarai-kun?"
Another purr and this time the pepto-boy was touching Renji's arm-not that the redhead seemed too happy about that-
"See that right there, foreplay."
Why the fuck was Grimmjow whispering in his ear now?
Why did it feel so damn natural to have his rival whispering in his ear to begin with?
Why didn't he tell his rival to get away from him?
Why was he just sitting here and-
(SMACK!)
No fucking way!
He did not just see what he thought he just saw-
Broken ankle be damned! He had to talk to Renji. NOW!
()()
"Don't be long Abarai-kun I still want cotton candy."
Szayel blew Renji a kiss and the redhead turned even redder.
()()()
"What the hell was all that about?"
"Uh don't know what you're talking about Ichigo."
"Bullshit! We're best-friends Renji and if you're into Szayel-
"Er I'm not into him exactly-
" Um well anyway what ever is going on between you two I mean why didn't you say anything?"
"Uh say what? I just told you I'm not-that is-look it was just a stupid bet of sorts-
Ichigo furrowed his orange brows. "Bet?"
"Uh I really don't wanna go into it man, just uh look I don't even know how it-you know me man I'm not like that and even if I was which I'm not I would never go for a freak of a fairy like him because you know well um yeah and yeah and stuff."
"Huh?"
"Nevermind. Look Ichigo you're my best bud and I know I should never uh try to cross the line or anything and I didn't plan to even tell you-shit man I was gonna take it to my grave but then he came along and-
"What? Renji what are you talking about?"
"I-
The tattooed redhead was looking everywhere but Ichigo's face.
"I-uhlikeyou."
It was one big clumped sentence. How the hell did Renji expect him to understand that?
"What? Say it slower this time."
"I said ( a deep breath) reddish brown eyes met cinnamon and coffee colored ones "I like you Ichigo."
Ichigo blinked once. He blinked twice. He blinked three times. Then he slapped his friend on the shoulder and laughed, "Good one Renji, you really had me going there for a mi-
"I'm not joking man. I'm dead serious. But if you're just going to stand there and make fun of my feelings for you then I'm leaving."
And with those parting words the pineapple ran away.
Ichigo stood there on his crutches for-well he wasn't sure how long but a damn good long time-
Renji liked him?
How could that be possible?
For how long?
Why?
'Why couldn't you have said something sooner? Maybe then I wouldn't have f-' he shook his head-
"Penny for your thoughts strawberry princess?"
"Go away Grimmjow. I'm sure that even you and Szayel can handle a couple of snot nosed kids by yourself."
"Grantz is gone and as for the brats-lost em."
"What the fuck do you mean you lost them? You lost a bunch of children-what the fuck is wrong with y-
"Calm down princess I was only joking."
"Bastard."
"Yeah what else is new didn't start out that way you know."
"What?"
"Nothing."
Ichigo leaned on his crutches and dared to meet those all too familiar electric blues-the same blues that haunted him for the past fortnight while he lie awake in bed-willing himself to banish such thoughts-
"Where are the kids Grimmjow?"
"Your lil' princess and Kuchiki showed up. Took the brats to arcade room, said we should meet up around 4 and take them back home to their parents."
"And Szayel really left?"
"He had some things to take care of or rather someone."
"What?"
"Don't play stupid Kurosaki. We both know that you just broke the pineapple monkey's heart just now."
"You-! You were spying on me? Again?"
Grimmjow threw him a cocky grin. "No need. Could be heard from a mile away."
Ichigo felt sick to his stomach.
"But I don't-
"Don't what Kurosaki?"
"Get lost I'm in no mood to put up with you right now."
"That's too damn bad. 'Fraid you're stuck with me."
Ichigo growled low. "I'm serious. Get the fuck away from me or I swear I'll-
He didn't even have the energy to fight. He just wanted to-
'I don't know what I want to do. Why can't I just be normal? I want to be normal damn it!'
Ichigo threw down his crutches and fell on the grass.
He was exhausted.
'Maybe I'll just fall asleep right here and-
Hands were around his waist. Quite against his will he was being pulled into his rival's lap.
What the fuck?
"Let go of me!"
They were out in public. In the middle of fucking daylight and his rival was-
"Get off!"
"Oh I am baby."
Okay that was it. That was the last fuckin' straw!
Ichigo struggled out of Grimmjow's hold.
And when he managed to get free-broken foot and all he let out a vicious snarl and charged!
()()()
Down, down the hill they tumbled
Trading punches and kicks
Not stopping for even a minute
As always Grimmjow was laughing like a fucking maniac
He'd swear the guy was a fucking nutcase if he hadn't seen his GPA score.
Course didn't they say the best geniuses were fucking insane-
Not that the blue haired boy was a genius but he was a lot smarter than most realized-course Ichigo did realize but-
But that wasn't the fucking point
The more blood and bruises the more excited his rival seemed to become-
Ichigo just didn't understand-
Or at least he tried to tell himself he didn't understand-
Tried to tell himself he wasn't getting hard yet again as his rival threw him in the lake-
Tried to tell him self that he hadn't just shot a load off in his pants
Tried to tell him self that his rival didn't look even sexier when his hair was wet-
Tried to tell him self that-

"Ichigo you idiot stop spacing out and come join us in the living room already!"
"What?"
Oh that's right he was at Nel's baby shower.
Ichigo glanced at the clock on the wall.
6:00 on the dot.
Where the hell had the time gone?

(Grimmjow)
Monday…
After his little coffee-date/interrogation meeting with Masaki, Grimmjow had spent the rest of the weekend working on 2 important speeches. The first was an apology and the second was the long awaited love confession.
Course knowing the way life normally played out when the hour of apology and confession came-he'd probably forget all about the perfect words that he had recited until he was practically blue in the face-and just say whatever was on his mind at that time-wing it, go with the flow, let nature take its course and whatever.
'Hell its only Monday-anything could happen.'
