Chapter 8 – A Rainy Day
The next day, Ichigo woke up to the pitter patter outside of her window. It was raining…HARD. Ichigo sighed as she got up. She had been planning on improving her tennis skills with Ryou. Guess not. She saw that Zakuro and Rettasu were gone. She wondered where they had gone to this early in the morning while she got dressed. Then she remembered. They had breakfast duty with Keiichiro. Ryou had told her the evening before that the aliens were NOT on any meal duties because of the fact that they did NOT know how to make ANY earth food. Instead, they were in charge of cleaning up the mess hall and the showers and bathrooms. Ichigo was still chuckling at the thought of Kish cleaning a toilet.
Ichigo finished changing and decided to go to the mess hall to see if the threesome needed any help. She ran through the pouring rain and hurried up to the mess hall. Once inside, she heard breaking of glass. She winced. "Hello? Do you guys need any help?"
Keiichiro poked his head through the door. "Oh hi Ichigo. We're fine….it's just…" Keiichiro was interrupted by a sudden sound of broken glass. Then it was followed by an "I'm sorry!" Keiichiro continued on. "….Rettasu is having a few problems." He concluded.
"Oh um…can I do anything to help?" Ichigo asked. She was feeling much better and she actually felt like working since she felt bad about not helping out with dinner the previous night.
"Are you sure? You just got better from yesterday's exhaustion."
"Yup I'm feeling much better. Besides, I feel like working." Ichigo replied.
"Okay then. Why don't you and Rettasu work on making the dough for these cookies and putting them on the tray. You can work on the table over there. Zakuro and I will handle the things in the kitchen." Keiichiro commanded.
Ichigo replied with an Okay. And soon, a messy Rettasu came out of the kitchen with an empty tray and some stuff for making cookie dough.
"I just can't seem to be in the kitchen without making some sort of mess." Sighed Rettasu as she sat at the table and started working.
"Don't worry. You'll be fine." Ichigo reassured her. They continued working until the others woke up and joined them. By then, the cookies were ready to be put in the oven but Keiichiro told them that it would be put in the oven for lunch.
"Mmmm….Do I smell eggs and bacon?" Ryou asked.
"AND sausages na no da!" a wet Pudding yelled as she ran into the hall.
"Mmmm it smells good. But that's only because Zakuro made it." Mint stated wearing a raincoat.
After everybody had settled down and the aliens had woken up too, they started to chow down on their yummy breakfast. (A/N: I LOVE BACON! XD drools)
After their delicious breakfast, they were energetic but they didn't have anything to do as the weather wouldn't let them. It was still pouring REALLY hard. All of them were sitting around being bored while Kish was busy bugging Ichigo. Finally Ichigo got fed up with Kish's annoying attempts at getting a kiss and having nothing to do.
"It doesn't seem like the rain is going to stop anytime soon so let's just do something indoors." Ichigo announced.
"Yeah but what?" snapped Mint.
"Um…" Clearly Ichigo had not thought of this. "I…..don't know."
"How about Truth or Dare?" asked Kish. He CLEARLY had in mind what he wanted Ichigo to do.
Ichigo knew what he was up to too. "NO! For sure NOT truth or dare."
"Hm…what else could we do?" Rettasu said. For some reason, whenever Pai was around, she had more confidence in herself and she spoke up more.
Pai spoke up and being the insane math nerd he was, suggested something to do with math. "Why don't we do algebra? Or we could do-"
Everyone except for Rettasu interrupted him. "NO!" everyone yelled.
"Okay okay…just a suggestion." He muttered to himself.
"Why don't we all glomp Tar-Tar?" Innocent Pudding asked.
Taruto yelled out his lone answer "NO!" while everybody else was muttering their disgust or looked like they had just swallowed something gross.
Pudding started again. "How about-"
"NO!" everybody yelled.
Kish decided to try another attempt at kissing Ichigo…or something close to that anyway. "How about strip poker?" the young green haired alien suggested innocently.
"NO WAY! Ugh…can't you stop being perverted for ONE minute?" Ichigo retorted.
Kish licked his lips and said, "But I was just quiet when Pudding was suggesting her insane suggestions."
"HEY! They're not insane!" Pudding pouted.
"Shut up." Ichigo was tired of Kish's comments.
Ryou could tell that Ichigo was getting impatient so he tried to think of something that would perk her right up. Finally, he remembered what he had brought along. "Oh yeah! I almost forgot about it!" he suddenly shouted.
Ichigo looked puzzled. "Forgot about what?"
Ryou was being not being himself and said excitedly, "I'll be right back." Then he took off in the rain. Everybody was curious about what he was talking about and watched through the rain to see any signs of him. After a few minutes, they saw a figure running towards them in the Mess Hall. It was Ryou and he seemed to be holding a huge bag. When he arrived, he was dripping wet but he was smiling. For once. It was so unlike him.
Ichigo knew he was being VERY unlike him so it must have been something good. Ryou smiled and held up the bag. "Look what I brought." He reached into the bag and TA DA! It was a game cube.
"YAY! You're the greatest na no da!" Pudding exclaimed and went to hug him.
"Yup you thought of everything." Rettasu agreed.
Ichigo was curious. "So what games do you have?"
Ryou smiled again and replied, "None. And I don't have any controllers either."
"WHAT? Then what's the point?" snapped Mint.
Ryou continued to smile and said, "I have the DDR game." As soon as he said that, he reached into the bag again and took out two DDR mats and the game.
Everyone burst into excitement. Clearly it was going to be fun.
In a matter of minutes, they had pushed aside the tables in the mess hall and cleared a space to play. Weirdly, they had an outlet in the mess hall. They plugged it in and they found an old TV somewhere in the back of the kitchen. (A/N: o.O I don't know why a TV was in the kitchen. :P) Ryou was voted to go first unanimously because he had brought it. He insisted that Ichigo play with him because she was the one that had wanted to do something. After awhile of convincing Ichigo that it was pretty easy, she was still reluctant to play but tried it anyway.
Ryou tried the hardlevelwhile Ichigo did easy. At the end of the song, Ryou had more points than Ichigo. Ichigo really sucked at it. She sat down sadly at the table watching Mint and Kish play.
Ryou noticed this and walked overand sat down next to her. "Hey what's wrong?"
Ichigo sighed sadly and replied, "I have NO coordination and I've always been bad at dancing. I've been trying to improve but it's not working! I can't even play a dancing computer game right!"
Ryou smiled sympathetically and said, "Well it takes a lot of practice. You have no idea how much I sucked at it the first time I tried. I got a way more embarrassing score than you did. Actually, you did pretty well for your first time." He gave her a smile and tried to cheer her up.
"Thanks for trying to cheer me up. But it won't work. I just suck at dancing." She replied miserably while watching Rettasu and Pai play.
"That's not true! You probably can dance very well if you take some time and practice." Ryou assured her. He was feeling guilty because he had brought the game.
Now it was Pudding and Taruto's turn. "Even Pudding and Taruto can play that stupid game better than me!" she complained.
Ryou smiled and encouraged her. "Well I believe you can do it." He said and left. Ichigo continued to watch the two kids play while Ryou walked over to his partner. "Hey Keiichiro…? I was thinking…"
Later at Lunch…
The group had played until lunch. Keiichiro and Zakuro had played DDR for awhile and then had gone off to prepare lunch. By the time everybody was exhausted, lunch was ready. The aroma of chocolate chip cookies and bento boxes filled the air.
"Mmmm just in time. I'm so tired and hungry I could eat anything!" Kish commented.
"I agree." This was the first time that Pai and Kish had agreed on something.
Everybody was hungry after that exercise. Everybody except for Ichigo. She had not tried again after her pathetic first attempt. She was just too ashamed to try again, even after lots of encouragement and suggestions to help out.
The group ate quickly and when they were finished, Keiichiro and Ryou told them they had an announcement to make. "We thought that to make this camp memorable, we would have something special to end it." Ryou started.
Keiichiro continued, "On Thursday, the night before we leave camp, we will have a dance in here. There will be plenty of food and all the music and other stuff will be provided by Ryou. Everything will be taken care of. All we want YOU to do is dress up for this big event and just have fun." He finished smiling.
Everybody was just as excited as before. They were wondering what they would be wearing and who they would be dancing with. Only Ichigo was not excited by this news.
She marched up to Ryou and demanded an answer. "You did this on purpose didn't you? You KNOW I'm bad at dancing and you're doing this to make me feel EVEN MORE embarrassed!"
"No…in fact. I want to do the opposite. I want to teach you how to dance." He stated simply.
"Of course you do! All you ever wanted to do was…….er…what did you just say? YOU want to teach ME to dance?" she stumbled.
"Yes I want to help you." the blonde teen replied.
Ichigo was speechless. Her boss…the one that always teased her about almost EVERYTHING was teaching HER to dance? He was acting so nice. The day couldn't have been any weird. It was a day where Ryou was NOT acting like Ryou AT ALL.
