Hello everyone, it's me, Just shipping. How are you all? Vacation is unfortunately over. So, I had this concept in my mind for the last prompt of the IchiRuki month, but it was so hectic here, that I couldn't finish it until today. But today, I have finally finished it and I hope that you all will like it. It isn't how I had it in my mind, but still, I hope that you guys like it.
Also, I went to Comic Con and bought there Ichigo's bankai sword. It's awesome! I'm looking for a nice place for it in my room, but I'm so happy to have it. I also have looked for Rukia's zanpaktou, but the ones that they had there weren't of any good quality. So, I will keep looking for it. And I also bought two Bleach posters, one of IchiRuki (of course) and the other one of Ichigo with Hichigo. I just have to buy two frames for it, so that I can put them in those and then I will hang them up in my room. I'm so happy with my purchases.
Anyways, this is my story for the last prompt. I hope you all will like it and please do bear with my grammar as English is not my native language.
Prompt: A dance with Snow White
Author's note: Sadly, I do not own Bleach… Neither do I own Snow White or the song ''Someday my prince will come.''
''A dance with Snow White.''
Rukia had to sigh, again. She had just talked to her fiancé, who had just called to tell her that he would be late, again. It was the third week that he would be coming late, but she didn't want to complain. She knew that he was helping others out in the clinic and he told her that he wanted to get most of his work done, before they would go on their honeymoon.
Sighing, she grabbed some dinner out of the fridge. After all, it would be a late night for him. But it would be worth it when she would become Mrs Kurosaki Ichigo. Just thinking about it, brought a smile on her face and she continued finishing her dinner.
At midnight, he quietly walked into the house. He did not want to disturb his fiancé, who would be sleeping right now. He sighed, it was only a matter of time until she would discover what he was up to these previous nights. But it would be worth it. Just as he was about to enter the bathroom, he felt two arms wrap around him from behind him.
Recognizing that petite body behind him, he squeezed the hands that were holding him.
''Tadaima.''
''Okaeri''
''It seems like you had a long day, again.''
He sighed, while turning around to hug her. ''It was, but thankfully I'm home now.''
She nodded and wrapped her hands around his neck. ''Have I ever told you how proud of you I am?''
He had to gulp at this question, he wondered if she would repeat that when she would find out what he had been up to.
''Not really, but you could show me in the shower.'' He said while winking at her. This made her give him a small smack. ''Pervert!''
He smirked at her; ''I'm not joking, Rukia. Come on, how long has it been?''
''And I told you, we are not doing anything anymore until our wedding.''
''B-but Rukia, I miss you!''
She had to laugh, watching Ichigo wining like a little child was always a funny sight.
''And you will have to keep waiting. Come on, Ichigo. How long are you waiting?''
''Almost two months.''
She pouted at him ''My poor, poor Strawberry. How hard it must have been for you?'', she asked mockingly.
He nodded ''You have no idea.''
She petted his cheek ''If you have been waiting for almost two months, then you can also wait for one more week.'' And having finished that sentence, she turned around and gave him a mischief smile while walking towards their bedroom.
''But Rukia, how am I going to survive this week? How long until our wedding?'' he whined again at her and cursing the person in his head, who told Rukia that it would be a great idea not to do any mature business until their wedding.
''It will be more romantic'', she told him with her big eyes beaming at him. He sighed, remembering when she told him of this idea. Of course, he did not agree heartedly with it, but he couldn't deny her wish. After all, who could do that. He just had to suck it up and wait until their wedding.
And their wedding came up very quickly. Before they knew it, their wedding date had arrived and sitting in her room, Rukia looked at her reflection. One hour to go, until she would become Mrs. Kurosaki Ichigo and just thinking about this made her nervous, scared and happy at once. Scared, because she wanted everything to be perfect, nervous because in a few minutes everyone would be looking at her and happy because she was going to spend the rest of her life with the love of her life.
She got back to reality when she heard a knock on her door and she looked up.
''Rukia,'' her brother in law said, ''it is time.''
She nodded and stood up. Byakuya gave her a smile; ''You look beautiful, Rukia. You look just like your sister on our wedding day.''
She looked at her reflection and smiled. There she was, wearing a strapless, heart-shaped, white dress with a veil on her head and a tiara. Her eye make-up was natural and her lips were blood red. Her pale shoulders were being caressed by strands of her raven colored hair.
''Thank you, nii-sama.''
Byakuya nodded at her and both brother and sister walked out of the room.
He was nervous. He was damn nervous! In a few minutes he would be wedded and then he would have to give his secret away. He was just hoping that it still would be a good idea, when she would discover it. Hearing some noises, he looked at the entrance and saw Hisana, Karin and Yuzu walking up the aisle, in their bridesmaids dresses. Just as Yuzu walked towards his left side, he heard the music and when he looked up, he couldn't help but gasp.
There she was, the love of his life, his white moon, his source of happiness, his Snow White. He didn't notice the glare of his future brother-in-law, or the flash of the camera that his father was using to take some pictures of him. But even if he would notice, he wouldn't care. The only thing he cared about was his Rukia. When she was close up to him, he took her hand as Byakuya gave her a kiss on her cheek.
Before Byakuya walked away, he gave Ichigo a silent warning, but Ichigo was busy smiling at his beautiful bride.
''You look beautiful'', he whispered at her.
She beamed at him, she didn't have it in her to talk. Kurosaki Ichigo was an attractive beautiful man, but seeing him in a tuxedo made her breathless.
The priest cleared his throat to get their attention and both started to listen to the priest and tell their vows to each other.
It was done. She had just become Mrs Kurosaki Ichigo and she loved every minute of it. Right now, they were in the reception hall. He was holding her in his arms from behind.
''So, Mrs Kurosaki, huh?'', he smirked at her.
She raised an eyebrow ''How many times are you going to repeat that, Ichigo?'' but she couldn't stop that idiotic smile that was appearing on her face.
He shrugged his shoulders ''I can't help it; I just love to hear it.''
She turned around to wrap her arms around his neck ''Well, guess what…''
''What?'', he asked while placing his hands on her waist.
''I also happen to love the sound of that'', she whispered at him cheekily. Hearing this made his smirk grew more and both leaned towards each other to kiss each other.
When they broke apart, he gave her a loving look ''Kami-sama, I love you so much.''
And before she could reply to that, he took her wrist to drag her towards the dance floor.
Rukia grew confused ''Ichigo, what are you doing?''
But he didn't reply. When he finally stopped, he turned around and gave the DJ a nod.
''Ichigo, what's the meaning of…?'' But before she could finish her sentence, she heard a familiar song being played.
Someday my prince will come
Someday I'll find my love
And how thrilling that moment will be
When the prince of my dreams comes to me
Ichigo held out his hand towards her and gave her a small bow. She was speechless, this was something she did not expect, but she took his hand and danced with him.
He'll whisper "I love you"
And steal a kiss or two
Though he's far away
I'll find my love some day
Some day when my dreams come true
She had to smile, this was her favorite song. But she did not expect to dance with him, as he was a terrible dancer. Both had agreed that they wouldn't do a slow dance together. But here they were, slow dancing with each other on her favorite song.
She looked up at him. ''When did you learn to dance like this?''
Blushing, he looked away ''Remember those late nights that I recently made at the clinic?''
She nodded at this and he continued ''Well, actually I lied. I was learning how to dance like this.''
''Learning, from who?''
Now he looked embarrassed ''The old man.''
Now Rukia had to laugh, she could just imagine Isshin learning Ichigo how to dance, while complaining to the poster of Masaki about their idiotic son.
''It's not funny!''
She had trouble stopping her laughing ''I beg to differ. It is funny!''
He rolled his eyes ''Tche, let's see if I ever will be romantic for you again.''
She stood on his toe, on purpose. ''Even if your life depended on it, you still will be a sap. But do tell me, how did you come on this idea?''
''Well, don't you remember how I first used to call you, when we first met?''
Flashback…
''Excuse me?''
''Oye, excuse me, Snow White!''
Confused, Rukia turned around. She had just finished her first day at Karakura High and was eager to get home. As much as she always had to move from town to town, she would never get used to being the new girl. But right now, she was being held up by an orange-haired boy, who was looking at her with big wide open eyes.
She looked around her, ''Did you just call me Snow White?''; she asked him confused.
''Tche, do you really need to ask that?''
She gave him an unbelievable look ''Yes, I have a name, you know?!''
''I'm bad with names anyway and you look like a Snow White to me, so that's why I will call you Snow White.''
''And do tell me, how do I look like a Snow White?''
He scoffed ''Tche, pale skin, raven hair and red lips.''
Now that made Rukia blush, did he notice her lips? Then she realized something and smirked at him.
''Ara, who would think that this dandelion head loves the story of Snow White?''
Now he had to blush and he looked away; ''Shut up, I have two little sisters whom I had to read the story for.''
Rukia had to admit that she was touched by this. She gave him a small smile ''That's sweet.''
He scratched his head from behind ''Well, it's something that comes at the job of being a big brother.''
This made her look sad ''Not every brother does that kind of things. Your sisters are very lucky to have you as a big brother.''
This made him frown, but before he could ask, she took his head and gave him a big wide smile ''My name is Kuchiki Rukia.''
He gave her a small smile back and he was pretty sure that he could hear Keigo yelling something about miracles; ''Kurosaki Ichigo.''
''Nice to meet you, Ichigo.'', she said while smirking at him because of his name.
He gave her glare ''Nice to meet you to, you midget Snow White.''
And she walked away, after she had kicked him, hard.
End flashback
Someday I'll find my love
Someone to call my own
And I'll know him the moment we meet
For my heart will start skipping a beat
Someday we'll say I do
Things we've been longing to
Though he's far away I'll find my love some day
Some day when my dreams come true.
Rukia placed her head on his chest and sighed in happiness. Who knew that their friendship would grow into something more? She never imagined to have such a romantic husband, but she was grateful to meet Ichigo, the one who made her feel loved and blessed. Ichigo kissed her forehead and sighed in content.
Somewhere waiting for me
There is someone I'm longing to see
Someone I simply can't help but adore
Someone who'll thrill me forever
Someday my prince will come
Someday I will find the one
Though he's far away
He'll find my love someday
Someday when my dreams come true
Oh please make my dreams come true
And just as the song had ended, the couple looked at each other, before they kissed each other passionately, eager to start their life together as a married couple.
So, this was my story for the last prompt. I hope that you all have liked it, please do review. Unfortunately, I couldn't update ''Happiness'' yet, but I will do that in these coming weekends.
