This was going to be epic. He had it all planned out perfectly and Toshiro was going to get it. That office prank never was forgotten; for the next week Ichigo had been called Strawberry by his co-workers! How embarrassing...

His idea had simply popped into his brain out of nowhere whilst cleaning out the storage room closet. It was so simple. But how was Ichigo going to get his young partner to fall for it? That was the real trick to this whole plan.

Toshiro would be coming home any minute now from the grocery store and Ichigo would-

"Ichigo?"

Speak of the devil. Turning around from his position standing near the counter, Ichigo turned around to face the shorter male carrying two armfuls of groceries. "Hey Shiro, need any help?"

Frowning, Toshiro lugged the two bags towards the kitchen table and set them on top of it. "If I needed help, I would've asked for you to accompany me to the store." Turning around, he crossed his arms over his chest, frown further furrowing. "What the hell is all this?"

Grinning, Ichigo motioned towards the orange plastic bowl filled with water. "Ok, I've finally figured out how to do this magic trick!"

Boy did he sound childish or what?

Rolling his eyes at the others' stupidity, Toshiro sighed. "What the hell are you talking about Ichigo. There is no such th-"

Clapping his hands over Toshiro's mouth, Ichigo shushed him. "No no no! You can't say anything like that otherwise it won't work. It's totally legit, I swear!"

Pulling the elder's hands off of his mouth, Toshiro inquired, "Then why the hell haven't you done it yet? Why are you waiting for me?"

"Because it requires something special that only you can do."

"Me?" This peaqued Toshiro's interests. He knew he was deemed the child prodigy in the eyes of others so it came as to no surprise to him why he'd be needed. Haughty? No, just… curious.

Grinning, Ichigo pulled Toshiro towards the center of the kitchen, ordering him to stand there while he set everything up for the trick. He knew Toshiro's curiosity for the unknown got the better of him sometimes and this was one of those times.

Nabbing a kitchen chair, Ichigo grabbed it and set it next to Toshiro who looked at him with great interest. The orange haired male then grabbed the broom handle and handed it to Toshiro. "Here, hold onto this. I'll tell you what to do with it when I'm ready ok?"

Nodding fervently, Toshiro felt excitement welling up inside him. Ok so he had some childlike tendencies? So what!

With great caution and care, Ichigo, holding the orange water filled bowl, stepped onto the kitchen chair and raised said bowl to the ceiling. "Alright, you ready Shiro?"

Gripping the brown broom handle, Toshiro nodded, allowing Ichigo to continue with the magic show. "Ok, take the broom handle and place it underneath the bowl to hold it up against the ceiling. When you have a good grip, tell me so I can get down alright?"

A few seconds later and Toshiro gave Ichigo the ok the to move. Taking his hands off of the bowl, Ichigo stepped down and placed the chair back near the table and admired his handiwork.

Standing in the center of their kitchen was Toshiro holding up a bowl of water against the ceiling with a broom stick. Ichigo patted himself on the back for this.

"Ichigo now what?" Teal eyes swiveled towards the other standing in the room quizzically. When he saw Ichigo's chuckling self and smiling eyes, he knew, he knew he fell for a prank. "Kurosaki!"

Grabbing a dishtowel, Ichigo prowled towards his prey. Glaring daggers at the nearing male, Toshiro growled out in warning. "I swear if you do what I think you're going to do you'll regr-"

The poor boy didn't get to finish his sentence for Ichigo smacked him on the ass with a towel, making Toshiro loose his positioning with the broom stick, thus allowing the bowl to fall over and completely drench him and the floor with water.

Running out of the room, Ichigo barked with laughter as he heard Toshiro cry out in frustration. "KUROSAKI!"
