Holding the heartbroken girl close to him. Feeling the chill in the air as it began to get darker he picked up the pink mew and carried her inside sitting her on his bed. Leaving the room he sighed deep in thought as he got a cool wet washcloth from the bathroom.
'Why did you say that, you moron what were you thinking! But it is true and I was going to give it to her at the museum party tonight.' His thoughts changed so fast his head hurt. Re –entering his room he found Ichigo had cried herself to sleep, coming closer whe wiped the tears from her face and kissed her lightly on the forehead before laying down the washcloth on his nightstand and walking towards his dress, taking a small box from his bottom drawer.
"Ryou?" Ichigo's voice was hoarse from crying.
"Ichigo, I was going to give this to you at the museum party tonight but I want you to have it now." Ryou sat by her on the bed and handed her the pink velvet box. Taking the box from her boss she looked at Ryou.
"What is it?" She asked suspiciously, having calmed down immensely.
"Just open it." Ryou said not snapping at her for once. Ichigo opened it and inside lay a beautiful gold locket with a pink quartz rose on it and inside was a picture of Ryou and the Mews in front of the Café.
"It's beautiful" she whispered looking at Ryou still with a slight suspicion. Setting down the box down on her lap she removed the bell Masaya had given her and replaced it with the quartz rose locket.
"Will you go with my to the party tonight?" Ryou asked in an almost whisper.
"Yes, I will." Ichigo said with a smile.
"Thank you Ichigo, I'm sorry about Masaya."
"I don't need the double-crossing cheat when I have you, you really cares about me." She said looking up at him. They were so close he looked into her beautiful brown eyes. "I love you." He said leaning in and kissing her, feeling her kiss back.
"I've gotta go." She said standing up and leaving the room. 'You imbecile, Masaya's going to be at that party and now your going with Ichigo, What are you thinking!'
