Okay, things get heated up in here! But I have decided to keep the heat quite limited, so it is staying T for Teen. Thank you very much. Please enjoy and review at the end if you have the time!

Also, I have to thank again to Derflinger for giving me this idea! Giving props to them. :)

And I have to thank my wonderful friend EverAngel27 for giving me the ideas of the pranks for Tatsuki/Ishida and Rukia/Renji. Props to her! :D

Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach. But I do read and watch it! Oh my gosh, the last chapter is so freakin' AWESOME! I almost cried when I saw how it left me hanging… I will not give any details for those who don't read the manga. Okay, now you may proceed to read if you've been reading this.


"Uh, Ichigo?" Orihime sat at the end of Ichigo's bed and slightly shook him.

He stirred awake and then suddenly sat up from his bed. "Orihime! How did you…? What are you…?" Ichigo began to blush and slowly began to cover his shirtless self with his blanket.

"Oh, right. Yuzu opened the door for me. We both made breakfast, so, uhm, come down soon." Orihime blushed at the realization that he wasn't wearing any shirt and smiled to try to cover up her nervousness. She then quickly stood up and left the room.

"That wasn't awkward at all…" Ichigo mumbled to himself. He then quickly took a shower and got dressed and headed downstairs to the table. He was slightly scared at what the food might be, but he also knew that Yuzu had helped along with so it should be safe.

On the table were plates with bacon, scrambled eggs, a pile of pancakes and in a small bowl were cut strawberries.

"Wow. That looks really good."

"Thank you, Ichi-nii! Actually, the cut strawberries were Hime-chan's idea." Yuzu smiled and behind her, Orihime heavily blushed.

"Oh, it was nothing…" Orihime then set down the plate of waffles that she had in her hand and then untied the apron that she had on.

"So, where's the old goat anyways?" Ichigo asked.

"Oh, he actually went out for a run… it was quite weird seeing him with his jogging outfit." Yuzu scrunched up her nose in the memory and shook it off.

"Oh… And what about Karin? Where is she?"

"Oh, she went out pretty early for soccer practice, I think… No, I'm pretty sure." Yuzu then sat down in one of the chairs and served herself food. Ichigo shrugged his shoulders and began to serve himself food as well. Orihime just seemed to stand there and Ichigo looked at her puzzlingly.

"Aren't you gonna eat, Orihime?" She suddenly blinked several times and nodded.

The three of them sat at the table, eating quietly. Yuzu was the first one to finish and asked Ichigo if he could just do the dishes. He nodded that it was fine and continued eating. Coincidently, both Ichigo and Orihime had finished eating at the same time and she took both of their plates and took them to the sink.

"So, are you going to do anything, Orihime?" Ichigo asked, as he began to wash the dishes.

"Uhm, no. That's kind of the reason why I came here to your house." Orihime just watched him wash the dishes and then looked down to the floor.

"Oh. So, did you have anything that you wanted to do, then?"

"Uhm, no. That's also the other reason why I came. I thought maybe you had something in mind." Orihime nervously laughed and began to scratch the back of her head. Ichigo chuckled and then dried his hands on the dish towel.

"I have an idea." Ichigo turned to Orihime with an evil glint in his eye.

***

Ring. Ring. Ring.

"Hello?"

"Tatsuki-chan! Hi!"

"Orihime? Is everything okay? And… what number are you calling me on?"

Orihime laughed and then sot-of hesitated to answer. "Uhm, Ichigo's house phone…"

"Oh. Wait, why are you at his house?"

"Well, we had this idea that we wanted to do for you and Uryuu-san, too!"

"Uhm, okay. What is it?"

"Ichigo and I are going to make you guys a picnic!"

Tatsuki was silent on the other line and then laughed nervously, thinking about Orihime's food style. "Oh, no! You really, really, don't have to. Really."

"Aw! Please? Please, Tatsuki-chan?! Ichigo's going to help make the food, so you really don't have to worry!" Orihime practically begged on the phone.

"Fine, fine. You can do it."

"Yay! Don't worry about Uryuu-san. All you have to do is get pretty by six tonight. Oh, and to meet him at the park. At six. Tonight."

"Okay, I got it Orihime. And, thanks. To the both of you."

"Don't worry Tatsuki-chan! Everything is going to be fine." Orihime then hung up the phone and smiled.

"Well, she's going too!"

"Good. Did you get all of the stuff?" Ichigo asked. Orihime nodded. "Well, then. Let's get started." And with an evil smile plastered on both faces, they began to make their creations.

***

Tatsuki had arrived at the park five minutes to six and had seen the bench with the picnic basket and a red and white checkered tablecloth. I guess that's for me and Uryuu… She began to walk towards the bench and at the same time saw him in the distance. She waved and he waved back. Uryuu walked up to her and handed her a dandelion.

"I just saw it on the way and thought that you might like it…"

Tatsuki blushed, not really used to the whole "boyfriend" thing. Even though she and Uryuu have been dating for a couple of months.

"Thanks… So, you want to start eating?" Uryuu nodded and they both sat down. He reached into the picnic basket and took out everything in there.

But really hoping it was a joke.

"Do you think… this is even edible?" Tatsuki commented. She began to pick at one of the plates which was a white glob of something with specks of brown everywhere. She could've sworn it jiggled when she poked it.

"At least that looks better than this." He showed her a plate in which was dark brown and mushy with some dark green stuff inside.

"Well... maybe it doesn't taste as bad as it looks." Tatsuki added in. Uryuu looked incredulously at her. "What?!" He shook his head and began to pick at it. "Well, we won't know until we try…"

"Fine, then. I guess you're right…"

"Okay. So, on three we eat a little bit of it." He nodded. "One… two… three…" Neither of them had moved a muscle. "Oh, I can't do it! It looks too gross!"

"No, we should at least try it… They did put effort to making this for us…" Uryuu scrunched up his nose and his stomach knotted up.

"Fine… but you try it first." He gave her an exasperated look and Tatsuki rose up her hands. "Fine! We'll do it at the same time again. But we have to do it this time…" Uryuu nodded and she began to count. "One… Two…" They both gulped. "Three!" They both immediately dug their forks into their plates and put it into their mouth. They gave each other a look, made a sour-like face and spit it out onto the ground next to them. "Blech! That was way worse than I expected it to be!"

"I do not want to know what's in that thing!"

The both of them then heard laughter behind a tree that was near them and they saw both Ichigo and Orihime come out from behind.

"You should've seen your faces!" Ichigo laughed out.

"That was much more fun than I expected!" Orihime was laughing so hard that she rolled over onto the grass.

"Wait, this was a set up! I'd expect this from you Ichigo, but Orihime?!"

When Tatsuki said that, Orihime had stopped laughing and looked up at her from the ground. "Tatsuki-chan… I didn't mean to hurt you. It was just a small prank is all… We made you guys another basket filled with goodies! To make up for what we did! Look!" Orihime then ran back behind the tree and came out with another picnic basket.

"Orihime. I'm not mad. Actually, I'd bet that was quite funny from your perspective… Sorry I lashed out like that. I didn't mean for it to come out like that."

"No, it's okay. Well, here's the real basket." Orihime handed her the picnic basket and stood beside Ichigo, who had taken her hand.

"You guys can throw all of that out. And no, you don't want to know what's in there." Ichigo smirked and they both walked away.

"Oh, look! They brought chocolate chip cookies!" Tatsuki yelled out.

In between from the morning and six, this young couple had planned to trick another couple.

"I'm happy you came back." Rukia snuggled closer to Renji and he slightly tightened his grasp on her. They were both just sitting in a small meadow near a river, watching the sun reflect on the water. The wind softly rustled the grass and the sun stood high above in the sky.

"Yeah, me too." Rukia looked up at him and Renji cupped her small face with his hand and kissed her. Rukia ended up leaning back onto the ground with Renji on top of her. His hand went under her pale blue dress and slowly began to go up her thighs…

"Say hi to Byakuya!"

Renji immediately threw himself off of Rukia, wide-eyed.

"What the-?! ICHIGO!"

"And YouTube!" Orihime yelled from behind of Ichigo who was holding a video recorder.

"No, you guys can keep going. But just imagine what Byakuya would say! I can imagine it now…" Ichigo then began to laugh and Orihime giggled behind him.

"Come here, you son of a bitch!" Renji stood up and ran after Ichigo.

"Renji!" Rukia yelled. She was beet red and didn't dare to look up at Orihime.

"Don't worry. There's actually no tape in there!" Orihime whispered to her. Rukia smiled up at her and shook her head in disbelief. "Well, I better go and find Ichigo." Orihime then jogged off in pursuit of her boyfriend. She found him hiding on the side of a house and had accidently scared him. "Ichigo! It's almost five forty-five! We have to set up the picnic for Tatsuki-chan and Uryuu-san!"

"Right. Lets' go." Ichigo grabbed her hand and they both ran back to his house.

***

Ichigo and Orihime were both on the couch with Orihime's legs spread out and on top of Ichigo's lap.

"That was fun." Orihime commented with a smile on her face. She then sat up so that her face was closer to Ichigo's. "Thank you." She leaned in for a kiss and Ichigo leaned in closer as to close the gap between their lips. Orihime pulled back and was about to lay back down, but Ichigo held her by her arm. She looked at him through her bangs and she was softly pulled back into him and was kissed once more.

Orihime slightly opened her mouth and Ichigo snuck his tongue inside. She softly tugged at the end of his shirt and he broke apart from her for a second and took it off. He went back to kissing her and she leaned back onto the couch. As he was on top of her, he began to kiss her bottom lip to her jaw and on to her neck. She softly moaned and her hands began to rise up slowly from his muscular chest to his neck. Ichigo's hands pried under her shirt and Orihime then grabbed his wrist and sat up.

"Orihime, I-,"

She then took off her shirt in front of him and Ichigo's eyes widened.

"Are you… sure?" He nervously asked, even though his voice was even. But his heart was racing, pounding even.

"Yeah… as long as Ichigo is ready too." She looked up at him with her big grey eyes and her now rosy cheeks.

He softly smiled and leaned into her again and softly kissed her, placing his right hand on her lower back. She wrapped her arms across his neck and his back was now leaning on the couch. Her legs were bent next to her and Ichigo had then stood up, having Orihime's legs wrapped around his waist. He carried her into her room and kicked the door close…

***

It was dark in Orihime's room and little light seeped through her curtains. She was softly mumbling to herself the words of a song and Ichigo smirked, knowing what song it was.

"Natasha Bedingfield, huh?"

Orihime giggled as well and continued to comb her fingers through his bright orange hair. "These words of my heart are my own, from my heart flow, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you…"

Ichigo closed his eyes, letting himself melt into her voice. Plus, the way her fingers were going through his hair made him feel sleepy…

"I love you, Ichigo Kurosaki." Orihime whispered and scooted closer into his body.

"And I love you, Orihime Inoue." He wrapped his arm around her and the both of them took comfort of each other's warmth and fell asleep.

***

Orihime happily woke up to the wonderful scent of food and sat up. She scratched her head and yawned, stretching her arms and back at the same time. Then realization had hit her.

I can't believe it… I did it… Oh man, how am I going to tell Tatsuki-chan! She decided to deal with that matter later on and grabbed her undergarments off the floor. She then searched her room for her pajamas, but couldn't find them anywhere. So, she decided to just cover herself with her blanket. Walking out of her room, she found Ichigo cooking some eggs and toast with butter. She sat down on a chair and watched him cook.

Ichigo turned around and saw Orihime covering herself with a blanket. "Good morning, sleepyhead." He gave her a kiss on her forehead and set a plate filled with food in front of her. She smiled up at him and then in awe at her plate.

"Wow! This looks really good, Ichigo!" She dropped her hold of her blanket and began to eat. Though, when she dropped her blanket, it had actually dropped down to her waist which had revealed her bra and a lot of skin as well.

"Uhm, Orihime…"

To top it off, she accidently dropped a small piece of scrambled eggs into her cleavage.

"Oh, did you say something-? Oh my gosh! Ichigo? Are you okay? Your nose is bleeding!" She then stood up, leaving the blanket on the chair, and ran to the bathroom for tissue. She handed it to him and he took it, quickly pinching his nose. Ichigo was then led to the sofa as to lie down and Orihime sat at the edge, her hand on his chest. When she did this though, she had noticed that Ichigo wasn't wearing a shirt and he was only in his… boxers! She began to heavily blush and made herself look away.

"Uhm, maybe you should go finish eating your food, Orihime. Don't worry about me. The bleeding should stop soon…" She smiled at him and nodded, heading back to the table and finish eating her own food. She purposely ate it very quick and went back to the couch. She sat at the edge of the couch once more and looked at him worriedly. "You worry too much, Orihime." Ichigo smirked and then sat back up. He made sure that his nose wasn't bleeding anymore. "See, I'm fine." She softly smiled to him and he gave her a quick kiss on her lips. "Get ready. We're gonna go somewhere."

"Okay." She then kissed him on the cheek and headed to the bathroom to take a shower.

Ichigo stayed sitting on the couch, massaging his forehead. Damn, what did I get myself into last night?! Well, kingy, you put yourself into nothing! Don't worry about! You enjoyed it, she enjoyed it, heck, and even I enjoyed it! Stop thinking so deep into this. It's a natural thing! No, it's not! Yeah it is! Kids your age are throwing themselves into this all the time. Yeah, but Orihime and I AREN'T every other kid! Damn, she probably thinks I only wanted this… to have… to have… Damn you're a wuss. Can't even say, let alone think, of the word 'sex.' Shut up! You're only saying that 'cause it's true. Ichigo stood up and decided to get ready as well. He quickly put on his own clothes and waited for Orihime to finish getting ready. She came out from the shower, having only a towel wrapped around her body.

"I'm almost done!" She yelled out.

"Take your time… It's fine…" Ichigo yelled back.

She came out of her bedroom ten minutes later with faded blue jeans and a dark blue button-up shirt. Her hair was up in a ponytail and her hairclips were clipped on the side of her hair.

"Okay! I'm ready." She smiled and Ichigo was somehow a bit shocked that she wasn't wearing a skirt. "I know I might look kind of weird, but I grabbed what I first saw." She nervously laughed and began to tug at the end of her shirt.

"N-no! It looks good on you actually. Let's go." He took her hand and they walked outside. Although, they were stopped when they heard someone call out for Orihime.

"Yoo-hoo! Orihime!" A young woman asked from her window.

"Oh, Morita-san! You're back from vacation?" Orihime asked.

"Yes, but only for a bit. I have to fly out again for a while… But I was meaning to ask, is everything alright? I heard quite a lot of noise last night!"

Orihime's face reddened and she began to flail her arms in front of her. "Y-yeah! Everything's fine! It was just that… I fell down a couple of times! My room is so messy; I should clean it up when I get back! Thank you for your concern though. I'll see you later on, Morita-san!" Morita nodded and waved good-bye and closed her window. Orihime sighed in relief and began to laugh out of nervousness once again. "I guess we should keep going, right Ichigo?" She looked up at him and gave him the best smile as she could give.

"Y-yeah. We should. Let's go." Ichigo grabbed her hand and they continued to walk forward.

"You wouldn't mind if we quickly went to my house, do you? I just want to take a quick shower and change out of my clothes."

"No! It's perfectly fine." The rest of the walk was in silence, a couple of words exchanged every now and then, but quiet nonetheless.

Once they reached the Kurosaki residence, Orihime went straight to the living room and waited there as Ichigo ran upstairs as to take a shower. He had accidently bumped into his father and he immediately tried to explain. "Dad, about last night, see I kinda had to-,"

"Be careful, Ichigo. And I'm serious. I see how it is between the both of you. Don't make any stupid mistakes." At that, Isshin had walked away from his son and Ichigo heard him say a happy hello to Orihime downstairs.

Ichigo had never heard his father so stern and tell him something so… father-like. It kind of shocked him and he thought that maybe he could consult his father about last night, but shook the thought away. This was his father that we were talking about. The man who still says things to a damn poster. Ichigo deeply sighed to himself and walked into his bathroom as to take a shower.


He-he. Please review and vote on my poll! Would really appreciate it. Oh, and if you have any great ideas, or any idea in fact, share them with me! I'd love to read them, and could possibly write it down. Thanks! :D

Next Chapter: How will everyone react when they find out that Orihime and Ichigo have done you-know-what?! We'll have to wait and see until the next chapter!
