"Shiro I wouldn't let you touch me like that; if I didn't like you that way," Ichigo said as he grab Shiro's shoulders. "Come here and kiss me."

Shiro did just that. They stayed like that for a good minute before they needed air.

A few minutes later Renji knock on the door again.

"Come in," Ichigo yelled a little lauder then necessary.

"If you two want, you can come up to the deck?" Renji said while he stood by the door.

"Sure we'll come right on up." Ichigo said as he got off the bed.

The two of them followed Renji thru three flights of stairs to get to the level of the deck. Once they got to the deck.

"Please stay here near the rail until we tell you it's safe to move out of the area." Renji stated as he started to leave them alone on the deck.

"Okay," both Ichigo and Shirosaki said at the same time.

After a few minutes. Ichigo jumped on to the railing and yelled, "Land oh. Shiro I see land. I am almost home.

"I see love, please calm down first." Shiro just smiled at his newly calmed lover.

"But I get to see my family again." Ichigo said a little too excited.

"I know Ichi, I know." Shiro said with a hint of sadness in his voice.

"Oh Shiro, I am so sorry, I wasn't thinking," Ichigo caught the sadness in the tone of Shiro's voice.

"No worries, love, I made my decision to stay with you over being sold or being killed." Shiro grabbed Ichigo's hands, "I chose to be with my true mate. Though I didn't know, that mer can find a true mate within a human thou."

"Well there is a legend about my family came from the sea about seven generations ago."

"Really, do tell!" Shiro was a little too happy to hear this.

"I don't remember it, but I will need to ask my grandfather about that one day." Ichigo stated with his head crock to one side.

"That's fine." Shiro answered, as they pulled closer to the shore.

As the dock came into view. There on the docks was the dock master, the major, and his family waving at him.

Ichigo was waving back to them.

Shiro just gave a soft smile towards Ichigo.

"Ichigo, Hichigo it's time to leave the ship. You two will follow me, and the captain off the ship.

"Okay," both of them said at the same time. Then they turn around to follow Renji out.

As to Renji instructions, they followed the caption and his lieutenant off the ship.

The first thing Ichigo did once his foot touch the dock was to plant the other foot into his father's face. "Why can't you be an adult for once." Ichigo said as he walk on his back.

"Umm Ichi?" Shiro said in a confuse voice.

"Leave that idiot alone on the ground." Ichigo said as he walked over to his sisters and gave each one a big hug.

"I'm safe and I'm home." Ichigo squeeze them even harder.

"Who is that with you?" Karin asked.

"This is my true mate. I found him on a tiny island alone for a few years. It was love at first sight." Ichigo said as he let them go, in favor to hold his lover's hand.

"I'm Shirosaki Hichigo. It's nice to meet you and you too sir." Shiro said as Isshin cross his arm directly behind them.

"You think I'll let you have my first born child. You are cra…" Isshin was cut short as Shiro punched him in his face. "Nice punch my new son-in-law." Isshin said while lying on the ground giving Shiro a thumb up for the punch.

"Is he insane?" Shiro asked the three siblings.

"Yes," "No," Ichigo and Karin said yes while yuzu said no.

"Just checking." Shiro said while shrugging his shoulders.

The four of them started to walk away from Isshin. When Isshin jumped up and yelled, "I'm going to be a grandfather," at the top of his lungs. In which cause Ichigo, Shiro, and Karin to punch and or kick the bastard in to the water and left him there to drown.

"So, Shiro-nii-chan, do you remember any phone numbers or addresses that we can call your family to let them know that you are still alive." Yuzu asked as nice as she could.

"I'm afraid not. What is a phone number?" Shiro asked innocently.

"A phone number is a set of numbers that you dial to reach another person with." Karin answered. "Do you know what a phone is?"

"No," again Shiro answered still not knowing what a phone is or its numbers.

"Where the hell did you live before the island?" Karin asked all confused because most people know what a phone was and how to use one.

"Well I used to live in the woods with my grandparents, before they died a few years ago. Right about the time were there was a huge storm that picked me up and dropped me off on that tiny island. That's how I knew how to live off the land for so long." Shiro answered her quickly as possible. Hoping that the lie was good enough, because I'm a mer and I lived in the sea wouldn't cut it with them.

"Oh shit, did you even have plumbing or electricity?" Karin continue to ask questions.

"Karin! What did I say about that kind of language, young lady?" Isshin said as he pop out of nowhere dripping wet.

"That I'm a young lady and that kind of language is for boys and their dirty hands."

"That's right, and you know to not talk to or like them, right?" Isshin is now in over protecting bear mode.

Karin just rolled her eyes, walked over to Shiro, and grabbed his hand. "Now that I am touching a boy, can I talk like one?"

Isshin's nostrils flares out in rage as Karin his youngest child proclaimed. Then Isshin smirk, "shi-chan does not count, since he is the chick in this relationship."

That did it, Shiro was seeing red and he hit Isshin so hard, that Isshin black out and hit the ground with a sicken thud.

"Shiro-nii-chan not so hard, he was only play with you." Yuzu said as she check for signs of life.

"So, does that mean Ichigo is the bitch in this relationship?" Karin asked, now poking fun of her brother.

"Karin, behave, please." Ichigo said between his teeth. "Plus we don't know who will top or bottom yet, anyway."

"Having trouble in paradise already?" Karin made another jab at her brother.

"Karin, I will not talk about this with you now or ever. So, just drop it please."

"Find whatever you say big brother." Karin turned on her heals and walked away.

"And you help me carry him and before you ask why, you're the one that knock him out in the first place." Ichigo said as he grabbed one arm under the shoulder and waited for Shiro to do the same.

Sighing Shiro did what he was told to do, grabbed Isshin by the other shoulder, and carried him to a waiting taxi.

"Do you need the hospital?" the taxi driver asked.

"No, Ted just take us home."

It was a quite ride home. It only took 15 minutes to drive.

"How much?" Ichigo as he grab for Isshin wallet.

"Nothing my dear boy, nothing. I'm just glad you're home safe and sound."

"Thanks Ted, see you later." The Kurosaki trio said as they pulled their father out of the taxi.

Shiro and Ichigo carried Isshin to the house while Karin holding the door for them. Yuzu was already at the couch placing a pillow for Isshin's head. Once they got Isshin on the couch. Isshin started to snore.

"What is he out cold or is he just a sleep now?" Shiro said while glaring at Isshin for a minute.

"He is now a sleep; however, this is a good thing. Now he can't annoy us." Ichigo said as he check his dad out some more.

"So, Shiro-nii-chan what would you like for dinner? What can you eat?" Yuzu said with hopeful eyes that she might cook a new dish tonight.

"I eat plenty of fish mostly. It is what I could catch in the sea. I pretty much lived off the land and sea. Sorry to disappoint you." Shiro watched Yuzu face drop as he spoke. "However, since my meals are very basic. I am sure; I am in for a real treat." This brighten up Yuzu's face right on up. "So, will you make your best dish for me?" Shiro said trying to brighten up Yuzu's mood.

"Of course Shiro-nii-chan, it will take a bit of time. So if you need a snack just ask." Yuzu said as she disappeared into the kitchen.

"Shiro can you come with me for a minute while I show you where you will be sleeping." Ichigo said as he stood by the stairs.

"Okay," Shiro said as he started to walk over to Ichigo and followed him up the stairs.

Walking down the hallway to the third door on the right. "This is my room. Stay here for a minute. I'll be right back; I need to get something for you." Shiro watched Ichigo disappear in the door on the right back down the hallway they just walk thru.

Shiro waited for about five minutes by Ichigo's bedroom door, sighing out of boredom. "Man, what is taking Ichigo so long?" Shiro asked himself.

"Sorry it took me a while to find it." Ichigo said as he jogged back down the hall. "I thought I know where it was. I was looking for this," holding up a jar that reads bath sea salt. "It's made from the sea here."

"Ichigo dear, I can't read your language. What does it say?" Shiro stated as he took the jar from Ichigo's left hand.

"Oh sorry, Shiro, the jar reads, 'bath sea salt made from your local sea'." Ichigo watched Shiro open the jar and tasted it. "Would you like to learn how to read and write in our language?" Ichigo asked as he opened his bedroom door to let Shiro in the room.

"We'll see," Shiro said as he walked into the room and saw what looks like a bed but it looked soft. "Is that where you sleep? It looks soft."

"Yes it is, try it out." Ichigo said as a small smile creep onto his face.

Shiro walked over, sat down in the center of the bed, and fell over backwards. "Holy shit, I was not expecting it to be so soft. You just sink right into it."

This made Ichigo's smile grew to the point that it could spilt his face into two. "Come I'll show you where you be sleeping."

Shiro was trying to get off the bed and was failing at doing it, "don't laugh at me and help me out of this thing."

"Okay, shi-chan." Ichigo grab Shiro right arm and pulled him up and off the bed.

"Now that my bed was trying to eat you. I'll show you your bed." Opening the door that was on the left wall.

In this room, there was a small bowl with a silver tube coming out of it. With a much bigger bowl, that a person could fit in. There was a weird seat with a hole in the center of it. "What is this room called and what's it for?" Shiro ask in confusion.

"This is a bathroom. This is a sink; you wash your hands in it. This is a bathtub; you wash your whole body in it. Just like the shower on the ship. And this is a toilet. Oh god you don't know about or how to use this." Ichigo said while turning red in the face. "Well you pull down your pants and sit down on it and you…umm..." Ichigo just turned reader and reader by trying to tell Shiro on how to take a shit.

"Ichigo," Shiro said while enjoying the red face Ichigo. "I know how to use the toilet because I saw you last night and the smell told me what you were doing."

"Oh sorry," Ichigo did the impossible and turn even redder then before.

"Just don't make it smell like that again." Shiro just grin at that.

"Right, sorry but back to where you'll be sleeping. We can fill the tub up and use the sea salt to your liking didn't you say that you'll need to soak your fins for a couple of hours."

"Sounds good," Shiro place the jar on the rim of the tub. Moving close to Ichigo's right ear and whispered. "You still owe me a blow job. Since Yuzu will be cooking for a while and I think Karin, think we do it already, anyway. So, she will not come up here for a while to give us privacy."

"Okay, but you need to sit on my bed. "Ichigo's face lit up once again.

"Oh I can do that with no problem, Ichi." Once again, lick Ichigo's right ear on its outer shell. "Come now Ichigo." Shiro grabbed Ichigo's hand and pulled him back into the bedroom.

Shiro sat down on the bed with his pants around his knees and his dick standing at attention.

Ichigo sat on his knees and took a deep breath to calm his nerves. Moving closer to Shiro's dick, he parted his lips and slowly moved closer to his prize.

Shiro held his breath, as he waited for Ichigo to close the gap between him and his dick.

Ichigo stuck out his tongue to lick the head and "Ichigo can you came here for a minute." Yuzu's voice called from down stairs.

"For the love of god! Will I ever get a blow job or should I just try straight up sex next time." Shiro said as he fell backwards on the bed.

Ichigo just sat back up and look sorry for his dishearten lover. "Sure thing Yuzu, I'll be right down."
