Friday, chapter 4

Ichigo woke to the whining voice of Kon in his ear. He sat up, only to have Kon attach to his face.

"Ichigo! Rukia's gone!" Ichigo peeled him off his face and threw him across the room.

"What are you rambling about now?"

"Rukia! She's gone! "

"She's in the closet like always what do you mean?"

"Go ahead! Check and see!"

Ichigo rolled his eyes.

"Rukia! You in there?"

No answer. Ichigo knocked again.

"Told you!" Kon said, blowing a wet raspberry.

" A note was left on the desk, that is if you want to find her." Kon said.

Ichigo quirked an eyebrow, but went to his desk anyway.

On it was a note saying:

"Ichigo, Rukia is staying with us for a ….couple months. We think it's best you don't come to find her. – O.I" Ichigo just had a blank look on his face for a second, then a look of determination.

He got dressed and went out the door, not bothering to eat breakfast.

Rukia woke to the smell of pancakes and something else. She rubbed her eyes until her vision was clear. Her stomach hurt, her head hurt, and she wasn't hungry—so the smell of food wasn't helping. She got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face.

She looked in the mirror, and all she saw was a tired, worn-out soul reaper in a gigai. "What happened to me." She whispered almost inaudibly.

She felt like crying her problems away, until everything was normal again. But she knew that wouldn't help anything. Before she knew it, a tear was streaming down her face. Rukia scrubbed her face and went downstairs. She sat down and put her chin in her arms.

"Orihime, if you were my mother and found out I was pregnant, would you hate me?" Rukia said. Orihime let out a breath.

"Of course I wouldn't hate you. I mean we can't go off at the things life throws at us." Orihime answered.

Rukia gave a small smile and put her head back down. Someone knocked at the door. Tatsuki came downstairs and answered it. Not bothering to ask, Ichigo barged in. Rukia ran upstairs, tears in the back of her eyes. Tatsuki gave Ichigo a cold stare, then ran upstairs after her. Orihime tried to lead him out, but he stood firm.

"I want to know why she is here!" Ichigo's voice boomed. Orihime winced. She sat down and took a deep breath, Ichigo sitting down too.

"Rukia's pregnant." She finally said.

Ichigo fell back in his chair.

He sat up, rubbing the lump now on his head.

"What the hell…… what do you mean?" he asked again, half of him not even wanting to know.

"You heard me, Rukia is pregnant, you're the father." Orihime repeated.

Ichigo buried his face in his hands.

"That still doesn't explain why she is here."

"…….."

"Why is she here."

"…..she is staying here until the baby is born. You never know what's going to happen. I mean, Rukia isn't even human and—" Orihime stopped.

'Oh shit.' She thought.

A/n: DUN DUN DUUUUUNNNNNNN! Yes Orihime knew all the time. Review and I will update again. If I get a lot of reviews, I will send a mod soul pill to you so you can have your own special Kon! *Hugs the real Kon to her chest* Bye for now!
