Ichigo slowly walked to school, thinking everything through and trying to make sense of everything that's happened. Why do the most awkward of things always happen to her? She could hardly understand why they were picking on Lettuce and now she has to try and figure out what that whole kiss things was about. She was just walking home and she even apologised to the most idiotic boy in school even though Ichigo didn't think she did anything wrong and that was how she was repaid? The thought made her angrier and she was starting to wish she didn't bother apologising.

But she had to say something for Lettuce's sake. She had to find a way of getting Lettuce out of this. If they were going to bully anyone, she would rather they all bully her instead of someone who had nothing to do all of this. And now because of Kisshu, she couldn't even face him at school without having that awkward silence between them. And not only that but what if she ends up making new enemies because of what happened? What if they all find out what happened? What will she say to Lettuce?

This was not fair.

Ichigo kept waking not bothering to look at her watch and check what the time was. She went through all that trouble to wake up extra early that day so she could have a daydream around as she walked. It would help her think everything through. Once she was at school, it would be hard to think with all the lessons and if any teachers catch her daydream again, she will end up in detention. She was given enough warnings and if she keeps getting in trouble it would be a phone call home; She didn't want her parents to think she wasn't working at school.

Ichigo opened her bag and took out a bottle of water, she hardly ate her breakfast because she was too lazy to have anything. And now she was hungry and thirsty at the same time. The only thing she could do now was to wait until lunch at school so she might as well kill her thirst now.

Ichigo stopped walking for a moment so she could have a drink. The moment she put her bottle away, she felt someone hold her arm and turned her around. Ichigo was shocked for a second quickly put her hand away as she turned to see who it was.

"What's up," Kisshu asked with a smirk.

Ichigo was so confused to see him there that she didn't know what to say. For a moment she felt annoyed because of his sudden approach but then she remembered his kiss from yesterday when she was leaving school, now there was anger and hatred along with irritation. What was he doing here? Ichigo was having such a nice time having a walk around but because life hates her so much they had to send an idiot down her path so now she can't even think straight let alone walk straight.

"What do you want?!" Ichigo asked in frustration and tried to sound as menacing as possible.

"Mind if I walk to school with you?"

"Actually yes."

"That's great! Let's walk on then," Kisshu said with a smirk and started walking.

"Go and walk with someone else and leave me alone!" Ichigo demanded.

But Kisshu didn't seem to be listening at all. He kept walking and he just winked at Ichigo. Instead, he decided to ignore Ichigo's question and start his own conversation.

"You can stay in this school and we will not bother you."

"That's great, very nice to know that you've finally gotten bored of me so can you please leave?"

"First of all, there are certain rules that you need to follow first," Kisshu said, "And who said I had gotten bored of you?"

Ichigo groaned. It looked like Kisshu wasn't going to leave no matter how much she told him to do so. So all she could do was go to school as fast as she could and join as little in the conversation as she could.

"What rules?" Ichigo asked, annoyed.

"You are to never repeat the situation again where you ended up insulting me in the canteen."

"I know that! I even apologised!" Ichigo exclaimed, "Even though you kinda deserved it..." Ichigo muttered.

"What was that?"

"Nothing!"

Kisshu looked at Ichigo for a moment. His eyes were not in the form of those cold, hard stares but they were now more kind and he looked at Ichigo in an understanding but awkward looking way. Ichigo didn't know what to do so she would either look away or stare at the ground while she walked.

"You like me!" Kisshu grinned.

"What?!" Ichigo asked raising an eyebrow.

"I know you do."

"What the hell are you talking about? I am nowhere near to liking you! Not even a little bit!"

"You say one thing and do the other so if you are saying you hate me then it means you like me."

Ichigo couldn't take any of this any longer. Not only did this big pervert kiss him the other day but now he was talking rubbish. So either there was something mentally wrong with him or he was just plain stupid. He insulted her parents in front of everyone, he hurt her best friend, he kissed her - bearing in mind that was her first kiss which she never imagined to have had it with someone like him, he started randomly walking with her when she didn't want him to and he even told her to leave the school just because she tried to stop a fight. Who did he think he was?

"Listen and let me make something very clear," Ichigo said as slowly as she could like she was about to teach something very important to a five-year-old, "I have no feelings for you and I am very sorry to say but I do not even like you as a human being let alone a friend or something more therefore I do NOT like you so please leave me alone because I am not in the mood for you stupid games!"

"How can you not like someone like me? I am good-looking, smart, strong and I am rich. What more can you want?"

"Oh please!" Ichigo couldn't believe someone could be that stupid, "For starters, your good-looks might get every girl in the school fall for you but not me. Your physical strength won't get you anywhere if you want to have anything to do with me and also, just because you are rich doesn't mean that I will fall for you. And plus, who said you were smart? Just because you are cleverer than most people at school doesn't make you smart because you hardly ever go to classes and you never work hard. I would rather date someone who is 'dumb' but works hard and tries his best." Ichigo took a deep breath.

"Ok, so in that case, nothing will please you, will it?"

"What are you talking about? You don't have the basic qualities that I look in a guy!"

Kisshu thought for a moment, "Ok, so what is your type?"

"Like I am ever telling you!"

"It's okay if you don't tell me, I will just bug you at school the whole day," Kisshu grinned.

Ichigo sighed, "He would need to be kind and understanding, he would need to show respect to everyone, he needs to be sweet, hard-working, caring and loving. Obviously, if he is all of that then it's likely that he's smart and good-looking too," Ichigo said almost daydreaming for the perfect boy.

"Oh and while we're at it, I hate show-offs and bullies," Ichigo said, coming back to reality, "Which, in case you haven't figured out, completely cancels out you."

"I see. But then there is an issue," Kisshu said.

"What?"

"There is another rule if you don't want to leave the school."

"What?"

"You will need to date me," Kisshu whispered with a smirk.
