Ichigo slowly walked inside and looked around, still the same since she last came here. Ryou walked over to his closet and took out a shirt and sweatpants. He handed it over to Ichigo and pointed to the bathroom.
"You should change to sleep." He told her as she stared up at him. Ichigo slowly nodded and went to the bathroom to change. Ryou took this opportunity to change himself. He removed his clothes and put on a pair of sweatpants and looked at the bathroom door. He still couldn't belive he and Ichigo were in the same room... maybe she did had feelings for him. Ryou then took out a futon and set it on the floor, by then Ichigo came out wearing his clothes with her hair down, she placed her hair ribbons on the window sill and looked at the floor. She noticed the futon and went over to it, Ichigo layed down and closed her eyes about to doze off into sleep. Ryou watched her and chuckled, he walked over to Ichigo and picked her up bridal style and placed her on his bed.
"You sleep here tonight, Ichigo." He plainly said. Ichigo blushed as he placed her in his bed and pulled the covers over her fragile body. Ichigo watched him go off to the bathroom and shut the door behind him. She smiled a cat-like smile and smelled his pillow. She let the smell of him envelope her senses. She then realized something... she was in love with him all this time...even when Masaya was in the picture. She wondered why Masaya's kisses weren't as sweet as Ryou's voice. Now if his voice was sweet imagine his kisses! Ichigo made a light giggle and touched her lips, she wondered what kissing Ryou would be like. Just as the thought came, Ryou walked through the door. He noticed Ichigo was still awake.
"Is everything alright, strawberry head?" He asked walking over to her, noticing her blush. He then put his cool hand over her forehead to check if she had a fever, but she didn't. Ryou then knew she was blushing because of him. Ichigo then sat up and brought her knees to her chest to hug them in embarassment. Her brown eyes trailed off to his face and she looked at him for a while before speaking.
"I don't think I was ever in love with Masaya." She started off. Ryou looked at her with wide eyes. Was she telling the truth? Ryou didn't really know if she was.
"It never did feel very right with him..." She wispered playing with her fingers, her brown eyes looked as if they were shining.
"I was in love with you all this time..." She finished off. Ichigo looked back down and put her knees and to the side. She placed her hands over her heart and looked back at him.
"It feels so right with you... when I'm with you... it feels so... so right..." She explained as tears formed at her eyes again. She was scared he would just push her away, and kick her out. Ryou gave another one of his chuckles and took Ichigo's chin. He brought his face close to hers so their noses were touching. Ichigo could feel his hot breath on her and she blushed.
"Ichigo... I've always loved you... right from the start." She whispered charmingly to her before locking his lips with hers. Ichigo closed her eyes and enjoyed his warm lips on hers, it was true bliss... the small kiss he was giving her felt... incredible. Ryou then broke the kiss and looked deeply into her eyes.
"I love you so much, Ichigo." He whispered to her again. Ichigo smiled, and blushed light pink. Ryou put his arm around her waist so that he could put her on his lap. Ichigo put her slender arms around his neck and pressed herself against him.
"I love you too, Ryou!" She said happily. Ryou smiled and leaned in for another kiss. Ichigo happily leaned up to him so that their lips would come together. Ryou then licked her bottom lip with his tongue, and she shyly opened her mouth. Ichigo never kissed Masaya like this before so it was a bit new to her, but either way she enjoyed the new feeling with Ryou. Ichigo and Ryou ended up making out for a bit before falling asleep in each others arms, and from there they knew that with each other life was perfect.
When morning came Ichigo got dressed in the bathroom and Ryou in his room. when she came out her hair was down and she walked over to the windowsill where she left them. Funny she left them there before going to sleep and now they were gone?
"Looking for these, catgirl?" Ryou asked holding her ribbons. Ichigo nodded and blinked.
"Can I please have them Ryou? I want to put my hair in pigtails." She said in her cheery voice. Ryou walked over to her and ran his hand through her hair and smiled. It was already brushed. He picked up Ichigo, as she kept asking him what he was doing and playfully bonked him on the head. He placed Ichigo on his desk so she was seat, her back facing him. Ryou set one of the ribbons down and used the other to make one of her pigtails. After that one was done he made the other one. Ichigo smiled when he finished, it may have been something small... since it was just tying hair ribbons, but it made Ichigo very happy.
"Hey Ryou?" She asked turning back to look at him.
"Yeah?"
"Isn't it wierd how my hair ribbons brought us together?"
