Forgot to mention it before, but… Actually IchiRyu is my fav couple. ; Though there will still be some IchiKish. And this chapter will contain one-sided MasaIchi. (shudders) I hate that couple… but it's okay as long as it's only Masaya going after Ichigo. XD

(Sorry for the wait, btw.)

Strawberry Dessert

Chapter 2

Crushing the Glass Bubble

It was pretty late now, Ichigo realized, staring at the dark sky outside of her dorm. Apparently she had fallen asleep, but she didn't know why she woke up in a storage room. All she knew was that she had a cold feeling in her stomach and that her legs felt like jelly.

"Oi, you're late. You were supposed to be here about fifty minutes ago." It was a tall man, probably the one who had been assigned to show her around the school. Considering the circumstances, his voice was really cheerful.

"I'm sorry… I wasn't feeling very well", she said hesitantly, while admiring his long, beautiful hair.

He looked at her curiously for a moment. "Well, I guess it can't be helped. Not that I mind waiting for such a cute boy anyway…" he said jokingly and smiled.

Ichigo blushed.

"Aw, that s so cute!"

"…"

Suddenly a heavy drop of water landed on her forehead. It was soon followed by others.

She froze, as the pictures came pouring into her head, faster than a flood.

"Oops, now it started raining. Guess you can call it timing that you came here before it started. Let's go inside…"

Something inside of her was hurting, hurting so badly that she wanted to scream. But she couldn't. Only silence came from her mouth.

She remembered now. But wasn't that a dream? It had to be!

"Hey, you ok!"

All she saw was the face of that boy.

"Momomiya-san!"

Something was very warm. It had a nice feeling to it too, and whatever it was, it was very close to her. Not to mention that it smelled nice! The whole thing made her toes curl with delight. So she snuggled closer to it. However, something was definitely very weird. It almost felt as if she was touching human skin, soft, smooth and wa…

Waitaminute! Human SKIN?

She was afraid to open her eyes, but did it anyway.

What they saw was a sunny smile from a very handsome boy with blond hair.

"Mornin' sunshine!"

Ichigo blinked, and turned her head away for a moment to look around.

The second thing she noticed that morning was that a very pissed Kish was tied to a chair in the corner of the room, and that he was cursing Ryu with all he had.

"Fucking bastard! Stealing MY idea!"

The girl blinked again, and turned her head back to the object of the green haired boy's anger.

And screamed.

Because the guy was half naked and currently in the same bed as her.

"PERVERT! GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE!"

"No."

Why the Hell not?

"Why the Hell not!"

"Dun wanna."

"What's wrong with you! It's not like I'm gay or anything, so get out of the bed."

"If you're not gay, then why are you overreacting?"

Because I'm a girl. Mom, I hate you for sending me to this school.

Ichigo just growled and punched his face.

"Will you just quit acting like you're about to eat me alive?"

Inwardly Ryu smiled evilly. This one had to be worth the effort, since things weren't even going according to his brilliant plan. Brilliant plan as in:

Step One: Charm him with you're looks.

Step Two: Kiss him and ask him out.

Step Three: …err… There wasn't a step three yet.

Usually, it didn't go wrong, so why not try it?

Beside all of that stuff with him hitting on a guy for the first time in his life, something about the guy was bothering him. For a first, it didn't seem like he really wanted to go to the school. He hadn't noticed at first, but after the first period started, it was almost as if the pink haired boy was afraid of something. It was the way he sat on a chair; stiffly, the way he moved, and also his way of not listening to the teacher. And he didn't even seem like a guy who'd want to become a model.

Secondly, apparently he was afraid of people touching him. And he had good muscles and reflexes. All of this made him wonder what kind of past Ichigo had. (Also, while thinking about muscles, he wondered why this guy's flesh still was so soft, though he obviously was well trained.)

Suddenly he put all of those thoughts away in a dark corner of his mind, when his target had grown tired of having him in the same bed.

"Don't say I didn't warn you!"

Aw, he was just too cute!

Again, that disappeared into a dark hole, as Ichigo sent him flying into the wall.

Kish, who hadn't enjoyed the previous scene very much, gave up a squeak of malicious pleasure at the satisfying sound of the wall cracking. Especially since it was Ryu who was impacting with it.

The blonde bounced of the wall, landing hard and painfully on the floor.

"That's what you get for being a pervert."

And then he was violently thrown out of the room.

As he thought. It was worth the effort.

And there Ichigo stood in the middle of the room, still being seriously pissed off, and blushing madly.

"That bastard."

He'd be so dead next time she saw him.

It was silent there for a couple of minutes, except from the small sounds of annoyance that occasionally came from her.

"Ano…" Kish broke the so called silence.

"What?"

"Would you please untie me? Class is starting in three minutes."

Hearing that made the girl panic. If her mom got the impression that she wasn't behaving well on the new school, she'd not get any money for a looong time. And that meant no food.

"Damn!"

So she decided to hurry up.

In three seconds, she sat next to the chair, trying desperately to get the ropes to loosen up. Not that she wasn't thankful that he had been tied up, who knew what he could have done if he wasn't? But at least the blond bastard could have had the kindness to properly release him before class.

Then it happened again.

Kish's face was very close to hers, his tongue once again on her cheek, leaving a small trail of saliva.

"Gotcha", he said, evilly, having a playful expression on.

It took some time for her to react.

"Eww! Gross! Damn it, Kish, I'll kill you!"

When Ichigo entered the classroom, she was sure she had a very disturbed look on her face. She rubbed her cheek, disgusted with Kish's little trick.

He was, by the way, still tied to that chair in her room.

It was better that way.

The world wouldn't miss a perverted monster like him

At least it seemed like the teacher didn't.

And she surely did not.

She sighed and made her way to her seat beside Masaya.

He still gave her the creeps.

A few minutes went, and then someone called out for her.

"Hey, short stuff!" a tall boy shouted. He had gorgeous eyes that didn't affect Ichigo one bit. Just another one of the typical model types, it was no big deal, since the whole place was full of them.

"Who're you calling short?" she asked, sickening sweetly, hoping he got the hint.

"…What? I didn't... Ehehe…"

Good boy.

"What's up with you, sweetie? You've been rubbing your cheek for five minutes now."

"Got attacked by an alien. And don't call me 'sweetie' again, got it?"

"Sure, honey. Sounds great being attacked by an alien."

Ichigo fumed.

"Anyway, we decided to make a fanclub for you. Great, isn't it?"

It was the first time she ever saw a smile extend itself as far as to the ears.

She decided to ignore him.

Ah, this school is full with freaky people! I can't stand it...! Save meeee, someone!

She could see how her classmates turned around and stared at her every time they got bored with the lesson, some of them with predatory grins. Chills went down her spine every time it happened. She almost felt like she was a small, trembling rabbit, cornered by a pack of stray dogs.

"Is something the matter, Ichigo-san?"

Masaya spoke up for the first time that day, every word he said quieting all of the boys down.

He didn't help. At all.

"Nothing."

Somehow, she found herself in the dark storage room again. And it wasn't something she liked, not after that dream she had. But the thing was, she couldn't get out. It was locked from the outside, and this time it was completely dark. The window that had let her see the outside in her dream had been covered up with planks of wood to prevent anyone from smashing it. It didn't provide her with any of the daylight.

Freezing a bit, she fumbled to find the light switch, and panicked when she didn't find it.

"Anyone out there?" she shouted, helplessly.

Suddenly she realized she wasn't alone in the small black space.

"It's no use", a sweet, yet icy voice said. Ichigo recognized it as Masaya's.

Immediately she became very scared of being there.

What would he do to her?

The question was partially answered when he pushed her to the floor with his whole weight.

Lying on the scared girl, he let one hand stroke her face, while the other one sneaked up under her shirt.

"I wonder why a girl is in this place", he whispered with cold amusement.

Ichigo flinched when the hand under her shirt began to loosen the bandages that strapped her breasts down. Wide-eyed with fear, she struggled to get free, which only resulted in him pressing her down more.

How did he know? How?

And what was the matter with her? She had been in situations like this so many times before, yet she couldn't do a thing but to watch it happen. Why couldn't she move? It had never been like this before. Even the first time, when she got dragged into a dark alley at night by a guy she had thought of as a friend, when felt his stinking breath in her face and the cold bricks against her back, she had been able to beat the shit out of him.

She bit her lip hard to suppress a moan when Masaya's thumb drew small circles on her breast, giving her a pleasure she didn't want.

Even in the pitch black nothingness she saw, she felt him smirking.

Her teeth bit down so hard on her lower lip, that the skin couldn't take the pressure anymore, letting warm liquid come to the surface.

In no time, there was a hot tongue there, licking and sucking it up. Her mouth was forced open in a rough, hard kiss that tasted of metal and blood.

Ichigo couldn't hold the small sounds of unwilling pleasure down anymore

"You like that, huh?" his voice said smoothly when he finally lifted his head and ended the kiss. "I do. You taste sweet."

Then he bent down, continuing what he had started, nibbling on her ear lobe. The hand that had been stroking her face moved up and got a firm grip of her wrists, while the other one slowly made its way down, lower and lower on her body, in under her pants.

"Let me go…" she whispered, frightened.

But really, what was there to be afraid of? If she didn't have the strength to break free right now, she could always gather it.

"Sorry, but I don't plan to."

She didn't want to get raped.

But she wouldn't. Ichigo convinced herself that she would be safe, and started to build up her courage, little by little, mixing it with the feeling of not wanting it to happen.

Right before the hand reached its goal, she became desperate.

"GET OFF ME, I SAID!" she screamed.

It was as if a spell had been broken.

Three seconds later she had shoved him off her, kicked the door open, and was now running away from the madness the fastest she could.

It was Ryu who found her, hours later.

And when he did, the sudden adrenaline kick was over long ago, her school uniform and the straps corrected and on place.

The problem was that she was sobbing helplessly, and that he found her in the bushes, where she tried to hide.

He tried his best to comfort her; even let her wet his shirt with tears, but didn't have a clue what had made Ichigo this way. And he still didn't know that the person that cried in his arms, in fact, was a girl.

A/N: Done. (tired)

(whistles a little)

Next chappie is probably gonna be about Ichigo's first model job, and contain some Kish and Ryu evilness. Fwaha. XD

(Though it may take some time before I get it done... T.T)
