More Ichigo/Rukia
Orihime's innocent question and Rukia's less innocent answer.
Coming Out
"Rukia-san, if you were here while you were supposed to be in Soul Society, where did you live?"
Rukia heard the choking cough of the boy behind her and smiled at Orihime's innocent question.
"Ah…Orihime, actually I was…" She trailed off at Orihime's hopeful expression.
"Oh! Oh! And also, where do you live now?"
At this, Rukia couldn't help but to cough slightly and look around her circle of friends. They all wore the same curiously attentive look. It made her want to laugh, really. She looked over to Ichigo, who continued to choke on his sandwich. What was the big deal?
She answered honestly. "I was with Ichigo."
Orihime's eyes widened. Everyone else did the same. "Really? He gave you a room?"
Rukia shook her head. "No. At first, I lived in his closet."
Doe eyes became wider. "And now?"
"We share a bed."
Choking noises filled the air and Ichigo's perverted friend let out a low whistle. "Damn! Rukia-san, that gives a new meaning to coming out of the closet!"
Behind her, Rukia could only hear a loud groan. Was it something she said?
