Yay well I'm actually updating this century! Woohoo! Oh well enjoy!

Good Fortune Ch.8

The next day, after Ichigo had successfully arrived late and worked her butt off, she offered to finish up and said that everyone else could leave. Of course there was a reason for this, she wanted to talk to Ryou. Keiichiro, conveniently, had to leave and wouldn't be back until late.

Ichigo walked slowly up the stairs thinking about what she would say. By the time she reached his door, she still hadn't come up with anything.

'Oh well I guess I'll have to make this up as I go,'

She took a deep breath and opened the door. Ryou was sitting on his bed, as he had been the past few days.

"Ichigo, why are you still here?"

"I offered to finish up, I wanted to talk to you anyway."

That earned her a curious look from Ryou.

"What's been with you the past few days? You have been acting weird ever since we saw Madame Myro,"

Although her voice was soft, Ryou visibly flinched at the name. Ichigo noticed this.

"Ryou…what's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"No matter what you may think I'm not that stupid."

No one spoke for a few seconds, but it was Ryou who broke the silence.

"It's hard to explain,"

"Just tell me Ryou,"

"You see, well…"

Ryou sighed, "You see at the fortune teller you told me you could never love me. It hurt a lot, you see since my parents died I promised myself to never love again and save me the pain. But then there was you…"

It was quiet for awhile while Ichigo processed the information, then it finally clicked.

"You, you love…me,"

Ryou smiled a melancholy smile, "Yes I do,"

Then Ichigo did something neither of them expected, she leaned in and kissed him, lightly, on the lips.

After realizing what she had just done she raised a hand to her lips.

"I-I've gotta go" she said as she raced out.

While Ryou just sat there stunned.

I know I know short short short…but at least it was an update! X3 And this chap wasn't completely pointless –yay-
