Good Fortune Ch. 6

It had been a rough day at work for Ichigo, meaning that it was a normal day with Ichigo doing everything, but for once she didn't mind because it was a distraction from the current problems, and now that work was over she was once again racking her brain trying to figure things out.

"Ichigo may I speak with you for a moment?" Keiichiro said motioning towards the kitchen.

"Sure…" Ichigo answered.

Mint would have made a snide comment, had she been there, but everyone had left for their own more "pressing engagements" thus leaving Ichigo with clean-up duty…and let me tell you that's loads of fun

When Ichigo entered the kitchen Keiichiro was sitting down and he motioned for her to do the same.

"Ichigo…" he said, "do you, by any chance, no what might be bothering Ryou? He has been acting strangely all day."

"Why would I know? I mean… why ask me?" Ichigo questioned.

"I don't know, I just assumed you might have known because Ryou mentioned something about seeing you yesterday, before he went to his room."

"Is that where he is now?"

"Yes but-"

Keiichiro didn't get a chance to finish because Ichigo was already running up the stairs to Ryou's room.

You would think that Ichigo would have learned by now to knock before coming into his room but she didn't of course. Instead she walked in to find a shirtless Ryou sitting on his bed staring off into space.

Ichigo just stood in the doorway for a few moments, waiting for Ryou to see her and snap at her, but instead, he didn't even seem to notice.

"R-Ryou!" Ichigo stuttered once she had found her voice, "G-get a shirt on!"

Ryou turned his head in her direction, seemingly just realizing she was there.

"Sorry" he muttered grabbing the shirt laying behind him on the bed and putting it on, "I didn't hear you come in, how long were you standing there?"

"Not that long, I was just-I expected you to notice that's all!" 'Why am I so nervous, I guess it's still a little awkward to talk to him…"

"Did you want something?" Ryou said breaking her thoughts.

"Uhh yeah I-" 'Ahhh I don't even know why I came here in the first place! What do I say!' "A-are you okay?" 'Why did I just ask that?'

Meanwhile Ryou, having heard the question, was thinking the exact same thing.

"I'm…fine, why?" Ryou asked…awkwardly…

"No reason, I just…hadn't seen you all day." Ichigo stated.

Ichigo hadn't looked Ryou in the face until she had said that, and when she did she noticed his eyes, everything else look pretty normal except his eyes, they looked empty, no depth, no shine, just empty.

"Okay then…see ya!" Ichigo said then ran out of the café as fast as she possibly could.

When she arrived at her house she was greeted by a note on the table from her parents, it read:

Out to dinner will be back late don't burn the

house down.

And underneath that in an almost illegible scribble was something that said, AND NO BOYS OVER! Ichigo assumed that her father had written that.

'Honestly dad, what boy would I even have over Masaya is history and Ryou-wait why would I even think of Ryou!' "I REALLY need some relaxation time!"

Well there you go! A pretty pointless chapter, but I'm brain dead…but it is my longest chapter so far! Still pretty short, but I tried. R&R PLEASE:3
