The Eve Project
Ichigo is just your average, smart, healthy, young, virile male college student. Besides having a part-time job and three horny friends who're always after their hot and sexy neighbours, all seems normal. Until the fateful night he decided to help a girl he found naked on a dumpster who insists that she was sent from the future to search for a healthy human male and save the human race.

Chapter 13: Happy Porn Night!
"I would like to take this opportunity to raise a toast and welcome the newest member or should I say someone who's always been a member of the 20-year-old virgins club..." Kon mocked while raising a glass of orange juice as Ichigo approached the dining table with a twitching eye. Keigo and Moe proceeded to make drum rolling sounds until the orange head finally took a seat.
"...Ichigo Kurosaki!" Kon exclaimed and his minions began to clap their hands as an added insult to injury. The young man they were referring to rolled his eyes at his ever so ecstatic housemates.
"Haha very funny. Stop that." He then turned to his cousin and as a form of revenge tapped the bottom of the glass of juice while Kon drank some rendering him to choke on the liquid and have it spill on his face.
"Fuck man! Why'd you do that!?"
"I don't know, maybe it was because you were pissing me off," He quipped sarcastically.
Keigo leaned towards Ichigo and eyed him with seriousness. "So Ichigo... now that the beans are spilled, tell us about you-know-who." He then wiggled his eyebrows as though Ichigo was supposed to understand what he meant. But alas, he simply received a confused look from the carrot top in return.
Moe rolled his eyes as though it should have been obvious, "Just tell us how far you've gone with her."
"That's none of your business," Ichigo replied with a stoic face.
"Hey now, boys, boys, take it easy," Kon cut in. "This is a very sensitive topic. Let's put it this way. So... Ichigo, did you ever get to kiss... her cheek?" And the guys burst out laughing. Ichigo's eye twitched in annoyance. He wanted to punch someone—or maybe three people for that matter.
This was one of the reasons why he didn't want them to know in the first place. Before, he was like their god being assumed to have the experience of a veteran in this department. Life was peaceful. But now, they're treating him like he's some sort of little boy trying to fit in the big kids' table. Heck, he's not having that though. Not this time, especially when it was clear that they were ALL in the same boat.
He smirked, "Tsch, as if you assholes who have never even had girlfriends know how it feels to have kissed a girl's cheek."
That got them to stop laughing and glare back at the carrot top. He glowered back with just as much intensity.
Oh it was on.
Keigo was the first to hit back, "Oh yeah? Bet you, you've never even gotten to first base!"
"Right, 'cause making out on the school rooftop does not count as first base!" Ichigo retorted with a prideful smirk but Keigo wouldn't lose to that.
"Well, if that were me, we would have been banging on the rooftop floor!"
"Or in the janitor's closet!" Moe added.
"Oh Yeah!" The two, Keigo and Kon agreed while giving each other hi-5's.
Keigo continued, "We'd bang so hard she wouldn't be able to walk straight!"
"For days!" Moe added.
"Oh Yeah!" The two, yet again agreed with much passion while cheering each other on.
Ichigo was about to counter when Hanataro, who's been trying hard to ignore the petty boys' squabble, cut in the argument with a little reality check. "Hey guys... do you smell something burning?"
Everyone paused to concentrate on what he was referring to. Their noses followed the scent of burnt food which made them all turn their heads toward the petite girl cooking by the stove.
"Um... Rukia..." Hanataro called out but the girl didn't respond.
"Rukia!" They all called out in chorus.
"What!?" She yelled out in surprise as though snapping out of her thoughts. They then all pointed for her to look at the frying pan. "Ah!" She cried out in panic when she saw the eggs that she was frying were now emitting black smoke. She quickly switched the stove off and observed her cooking. Figuring that it was too burnt to be even edible, she frowned. Hanataro, being the closest, stood up and tried to assist her and asked if she was alright.
"I-I'm fine. Sorry about that." The little man took the frying pan from Rukia while she walked towards the fridge to get some more eggs.
"We're out of eggs," she mustered as she searched for a fresh batch.
"Really? I just bought a dozen yesterday," Hanataro explained while he opened the trash bin to throw away the burnt eggs on the pan. His eyes widened in surprise when he saw that there was already a first batch of burnt eggs in the trash.
"Woah, Rukia, how many eggs have you been cooking?"
"Oh no," the girl covered her face with her hands upon realizing what she just did. Kon immediately stood up to try and lighten the situation. He tried to cheer the girl up by assuring her that it was no big deal then insisted that she rest for today and leave the rest to them. The three then joined Hanataro by the kitchen leaving Ichigo on the table with Rukia. The two of them sat in silence with an aura of strange awkwardness enveloping them both. Their eyes met for a split second but they immediately looked away. Rukia fidgeted with her fingers while Ichigo gulped a glass of orange juice to try and ease the tension. When the sudden clutter of kitchenware struck, that was Ichigo's cue to stand up.
"Tsch. Can't count on them not to burn anything else in the kitchen," he mumbled to himself while shaking his head.
In the end, Ichigo ended up cooking breakfast for everyone. Mostly toast, bacon and hotdogs—no eggs.
"So Ichigo, how does it feel like to be a virgin again—Oops, sorry I mean still be a virgin?" Keigo bringing back the topic from before while piling up some crunchy bacon strips on his plate.
"Psch. You're one to talk. I'm sure you're pretty aware of the answer, every single day. What's your deal?" Ichigo answered with a deep scowl while fighting the urge to stab Keigo with a fork.
"Come on Ichigo, I think we're all just curious about how you survived it," Kon spoke on Keigo's defence.
"Yeah! Do you like jack off every night!?" the other pointed out without even flinching as he enjoyed his plate of bacon.
Hanataro ran his palm over his face in disgust. "Augh... guys, not on the table."
"No! We have to establish this—"
"No, Keigo, we don't," Ichigo mumbled but Keigo paid no mind to him and just continued talking.
"Because that would have been the highest level of temptation recorded in mankind's history! Ever! You were living the dream of all the young men out there, Ichigo! You were dating the president of cougar town—"
"Enough," Ichigo tried to halt Keigo's passionate speech, this time holding the fork tightly, just in case he really needed to shut him up... maybe for good.
"How could you not lose your mind just thinking of a hundred ways to fuck her like there's no tomorrow!?"
"Keigo," Ichigo warned.
"And making her scream your name into the heavens like it was a mantra? And having her limp and sore all over the next day but still begging for you to—"
The orange head snapped. "What kind of a primal sex demon do you think I am!?"
And orange juice splashed on the table.
Rukia quickly grabbed the glass that she accidentally tipped to the side and placed it upright. She muttered apologies as the liquid spread quickly across the table. Ichigo volunteered to get the towel but when he got to it, Rukia took hold of the cloth as well.
"I can do it," she insisted.
"No, just sit down, I'll do it," he argued while trying to pry it from her death grip but she wouldn't give in.
"No, you go. I'll handle it." No one was willing to let go until Hanataro called out that they're going to tear the towel in half if they don't let go. Ichigo could have sworn that he saw Rukia's eyes glowed for split second. However, glowing or not, he got the message just by looking at her eyes.
Let go. Now.
He yields and she takes the towel as though winning the argument.
After the spilt juice has been cleaned up, everyone seemed to have been affected by the tension in that towel argument that no one dared to raise their voice as they continued to eat breakfast. Rukia, feeling bad for being the cause of the silence, tried to break it.
"Umm, I'll be going out today... because I have to look for a new higher than average male."
"Then we'll come with you!" Keigo volunteered with much enthusiasm but his eagerness was cut short when Moe reminded him that they had special remedial classes today. Hanataro mentioned having some group meetings to attend to as well, which leaves Kon to rise to the occasion and exude Keigo's previous enthusiasm. Rukia smiled after hearing Kon's promise of coming with her then her eyes unconsciously turned to Ichigo who was in turn looking at her. When their eyes met, he was caught off guard.
"Uh... I have some books to borrow at the library so if you're all going to the university, I'll come too." Breakfast ended with Keigo grunting about how unfair life is because they're all going to school on a Sunday.
For some reason, actually it was for the fact that Hanataro was already in the bathroom and the other three didn't want to do the dishes, Ichigo and Rukia were left to do the task together. He can feel it again. The awkwardness. And he was betting as hell that she could feel it too but she's way too good at acting all apathetic about it and that's pissing him off. He can't take it. This. Whatever it is. They have to clear it up and someone has to be man enough to take the first step... He cleared his throat and he tried to see if he got a reaction from her on his peripheral vision.
Nothing.
He tried again.
Still... nothing.
Again—
"Are you okay?" She turned to him with a slight scowl on her face. That's not a good sign.
"Uh... y-yeah." And with that she went back to wiping the dishes as though nothing happened. Ichigo fought the urge to grab the dish from her hand and just throw it away to get a better reaction than that but in the end he went for a different approach.
"Actually, no... I... Are we... You know... okay?" He wasn't even sure she understood and was expecting for her to ignore him but after she finished drying the last plate, she turned to face him completely.
"What do you mean?"
He scratched the back of his head unsure of how to formulate his next words, "I mean are you... you know... mad at me or something?"
She crossed her arms over her chest. "Why would I be mad at you?"
"Because you know... I didn't want to..." His silence filled out the missing words of his statement which he assumes she understands.
Rukia raised a delicate eyebrow at him. "You think I'm angry because you didn't want to have sex with me?"
"Y...eah..." He ended up saying while feeling a pang in his chest after hearing the words come from her. "Are you?"
She sighed. "Ichigo, I'm not. To be honest, I feel bad for trying to change your mind. I shouldn't force you to do something that you clearly don't want to do. Or even make you feel obligated to do it. Trust me, I'm well aware of how that feels. Besides, it's my mission and my burden to carry, so don't worry about it." She let out the best reassuring smile she could muster. "So we're okay. We're friends."
"Ah," He let out in understanding.
Unfortunately to him, that statement didn't seem true at all.
Rukia pouted as she found herself sitting on the fountain at the middle of the campus... alone. She looked around, and there weren't even much people in the school today, let alone men. She sighed. It was unlike the first time she was here. But then again, like the first time she's feeling really pissed about her situation. She'd run her hands on the water of the fountain to calm herself but unfortunately, they drain the fucking fountain on Sundays.
Curse this Sunday.
Curse this school.
Curse higher than average males who are so hard to find.
Curse burnt eggs.
Curse orange juice.
Curse orange hair.
Curse his stupid scowl.
Curse his even stupider smile.
And as her list continued, just like the first time, a familiar face cut her off her reverie.
"Rukia?" The young man who bent down to be levelled with her face smiled at her as he adjusted his glasses by habit. She blinked several times until she realized who it was.
"Oh it's you, Uryu Ishida. Ichigo's friend!" She smiled back.
"That's right. You remembered," He replied flattered by the recognition. "What are you doing here all alone? Is Ichigo with you?"
This time, the girl's lips curled to a pout. "Ichigo's at the library borrowing some books. I was with Kon but he had a run-in with a teacher and was chased after. I'm not sure when he'll be back though."
Ishida sat next to her and tried rolling out a conversation with her. She easily opened up to him and explained how she's been having problems about finding a male donor. Ishida, though still sceptic about the idea, just went with the flow of the conversation as though it was something normal people talk about.
"So you mean to say you haven't found one yet?"
"Mmm... I have, but he doesn't wanna. So I'm looking for a new one. But there aren't many people here in the university during Sundays."
"Hmm... you're right," Ishida mumbled looking around the almost empty campus as well and getting her point. Rukia then took the opportunity and put her finger on his ear for a moment. The young man, having experience with this before, just let her do her thing without any questions. Once she retrieved back her hand, she sighed.
"Still no?"
She shook her head.
"Sorry," he replied and honestly, seeing the sad face on the girl really made him feel bad until suddenly, an idea struck him that just might help her.
"You know what, why don't you try going to the gym? The men usually go there during Sundays. And that has bound to be filled with healthy people. Right?"
And just like that, her eyes lit up with hope. "Could you show me where it is?"
"Sure. Let's go."
"Ichigo! Ichigo! Ichigo!" Kon called out while he ran towards his cousin who was in the middle of checking out the last of the books he had collected. The loud outbursts were hushed immediately by the "SSSSSHHHH!" courtesy of everyone inside the university library.
"What the fuck Kon? Lower your voice," Ichigo mumbled, clearly annoyed, but focused on his task at hand and carefully placed the books inside his bag.
"Yeah yeah, library, right. But hurry up with those, we have a problem!" Kon stated as he grabbed some of the books and shoved it inside Ichigo's bag in a hurry.
"What the fuck is it now!?" He yelled back and another round of "SSSSHHHH!" echoed throughout the library. Then Ichigo noticed a certain midget missing from the picture. "Wait. Where's Rukia?"
Not before long, the two found themselves running around the campus in search of a petite girl who, according to Kon, was gone when he came back to the campus fountain. Sure there weren't many people in the university today but damn was it hard to look for a single missing girl. Heck, she could be anywhere. Ichigo's brain was practically in overdrive. He wasn't even sure how he was lecturing his cousin about how irresponsible he is while at the same time his brain was making up scenarios in which Rukia could be in right now.
For god's sake, he even checked the dumpsters and nothing!
Fuck this Sunday!
Fuck this school!
Fuck the dishes!
Fuck being okay!
Fuck being friends!
Fucking midget from the fu—
BAM!
Ichigo cursed as he felt his ass hit the ground hard after running into someone who seem to have been knocked down by the same force of their coalition as well. Ichigo immediately stood up, regardless of the painful fall, when he realized that it was Ishida that he just ran into. The raven haired young man cursed at him but nonetheless got up and fixed himself with dignity.
"ISHIDA!" Ichigo called out grabbing his colleague by the shoulders and shaking him with much intensity. "HAVE YOU SEEN RUKIA!?"
"Jesus Christ, Kurosaki! Calm down!" Ishida tried to escape from Ichigo's grip but when he lets go, it was Kon's turn to grab him by the collar.
"You don't understand! We can't calm down until we find Rukia, four-eyes!" Kon yelled back.
"Alright, alright! I did see her! I took her to the gym awhile ago."
"Gym!? What the fuck Ishida?!"
Ishida felt his vein pop in irritation as the two continued to pester him about what an idiot he was for doing that. He was not an idiot! Heck, he was just trying to help the girl!
"How should I know!? You guys left her by the fountain alone! I was just trying—" He was about to defend himself but before he can even continue, the two have ran past him to head off to where the petite girl was last seen.
When they arrived at the gym, they scanned the room for any sign of their raven haired midget. Hell, any sign of a girl for that matter. They got nothing except for a room overflowing with testosterone. Pissed, Ichigo approached one of the men lifting some weights.
"Hey! Have any of you seen a girl around here? Short, violet eyes, dark hair that ran up until her shoulders?" Ichigo questioned while Kon added the unnecessary descriptions like beautiful, sweet and cheerful, blah blah. But what got Ichigo scowling deeper was the fact that the guy acted as though he didn't hear anything and just continued with his work out smugly like they should be impressed by what he was doing.
Ichigo didn't have time for this. He clenched his fists on his sides trying to be patient.
"Hey." He called out again sounding a bit more pissed and this time the guy stops and gives him a cocky smirk.
"Girl huh?" He turned to his buddies. "Oh hey! They must be talking about that girl whose been shoving her finger on people's ears a while ago!" The guys began to laugh.
And snap goes Ichigo's patience.
The next thing the arrogant bastard knew, he was being pinned down by Ichigo on the ground with his brown eyes glaring at the poor guy with serious killing intent.
"WHERE." Ichigo hissed.
"D-dude. Chill! I swear to god, I didn't touch your girlfriend!" The guy crumbled in terror.
Ichigo grabbed him by the shirt and repeated with just as much venom as before, "WHERE."
"I-I think I saw her go out with Red!"
"Red!? WHO THE FUCK IS RED!?"
Hanataro, Moe and Keigo came running towards the campus fountain where they agreed to meet up with Ichigo and Kon who were currently waiting for them there. Ichigo was sitting on the fountain while Kon stood beside him with his arms crossed over his chest.
"Hey! We got your text! Have you found her?" Hanataro cried out while waving a hand at them.
Kon shook his head, "No, we got into a little brawl at the gym though."
"We!? You were cowering behind the treadmills!" Ichigo cleared out.
"You didn't have to lose your patience with those guys! You're pretty lucky that those guys are wimpy."
Kon had a point though. Those guys were a bit wimpy. That was probably the reason why they were working out at the gym on a Sunday.
But still, wimpy or not, he still got a little bruised up at some parts. How was he supposed to know that they were going to gang up on him!? Plus, he wouldn't have to go all berserk on them if they had been more cooperative with the search...
Was all this trouble even worth it?
Fuck that. A guy called Red got Rukia and none of those freakin' idiots know who that guy is!?
What was he? A freakin' ghost or something!?
Ichigo clenched his fists then sighed.
"So do you guys have any idea where to search now?" Moe asked in concern.
Kon scratched his head, "Well, they said she came with a guy called Red, who apparently nobody knows."
"Wait. Did you say Red!? As in, big scary rebel guy Red!?"
"You know him!?" Ichigo and Kon both eyed Moe incredulously.
"Y-yeah! His name is Renji Abarai. If I remember correctly he's a huge guy! With red hair and weird tattoos."
Keigo grabbed a fistful of his own hair as though he was going crazy, "Oh no! That monster! What could he have done to our Rukia!? Rukiaaaaa!" He was then silenced when Kon hit his head in annoyance. The boys began to huddle as they formulated a new plan to search for the missing girl.
Kon decided to lead the planning, "Okay, here's what we'll do. We'll split up to two groups in order to cover more ground and—"
"What's going on? What are we doing?" The meeting was cut off when someone else decided to join the huddle.
The huddle broke apart as all eyes turned to the person who spoke or rather the reason behind the need for huddling and planning in the first place.
"RUKIA!" Everyone cried out in relief at the sight of the petite girl. She was a little taken aback by the sudden outburst of the group but quickly gained back her composure. Then everybody was talking at the same time that she barely understood what each one of them is saying. But based on the snippets of stuff that she can make out from their words, they seem to have been worried about her because she suddenly disappeared. When everyone seemed calmer, she spoke a word of apology.
"Sorry, I—"
"SORRY!? WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU GO, MIDGET!?" It was Ichigo's turn to burst out in frustration and Rukia blinked a few times at seeing the carrot top so angry, worried and frustrated at the same time.
It took a few seconds before she could muster a reply, "I-I told you I was looking for a male donor."
"You should have waited for us to come with you!" Keigo yelped with eyes brimming with tears of relief.
"Yeah, we're all here now so we'll all help you look," Hanataro added.
After hearing that, it was Rukia's turn to feel bad. And now she was unsure of how to tell them. But then again, she might as well just say it.
"Um... actually..." She began. "I've... already found one."
As soon as her words sunk in, everyone froze.
What?
"WHAT!?" They all exclaimed in chorus.
"Mmm." She nodded. "I was explaining everything to him and he agreed to go with it."
Again...
"WHAT!?" They all repeated with their eyes as wide as plates and jaws hanging like caves.
There was a guy who fell for the midget from the future story? How very suspicious indeed.
Kon was the first to snap out of his shocked reaction, "Where the hell is he then!?"
"He's right there." She pointed at the redhead who was standing a few feet away from them. The boys looked back and forth at Rukia and the guy she was pointing at.
All of them had the same thoughts in mind.
She can't be serious, right?
RIGHT?
"THAT GUY!?" They questioned at the same time while looking at her as though she had lost it but when she nodded they quickly rushed towards the young man in question and cornered him like he was guilty of committing a crime that cannot be compensated in any of the circles in hell. Their sudden huddling, caught the guy named Renji in surprise that it had him tripping until he fell on the ground but that didn't stop them from harassing the young man.
And so, the interrogation began...
"Who are you and what are your intentions?"
"Do you have any idea at all of what you're getting into? You think you're so qualified, don't you?"
"Do you have any experience with this kind of stuff?"
"What's up with you, have you just gotten out of prison!? Do you have any criminal records!?"
"So you enjoy kidnapping vulnerable girls you barely know, huh? You sick perverted bastard!"
Although Renji did have an appearance of a troublesome young man, with the red hair, weird tattoos on his eyebrows and a muscular built, he was not a complete ass. He wasn't also a ghost, he just doesn't like the vibe that he gets from most of the people around him, who tend to judge him based on his appearance so he preferred not to socialize most of the time. And then a few moments ago, he just arrived at the gym when this beautiful petite girl approached him with such a genuine smile and asked if she could poke her finger in his ear. After seeing that smile, hell, she can poke him wherever she likes. Then they were talking about random stuff and she was asking about him and for some reason, he didn't mind sharing his thoughts. And so they agreed to meet again tomorrow.
But going back to right now, all these strangers bombarding him with personal questions, he really couldn't help but think to himself that of course there had to be a catch when you meet a girl that interesting.
"Hey! Have you gone deaf!?" Keigo asked seeing as though Renji was too caught up in his thoughts to answer. The red head snapped out of his reverie and saw the judging looks that the group was giving him.
And being used to those looks, he simply brushed them away.
"What the fuck is wrong with you people!?" He roared in a pissed off tone.
"No, you don't get to ask questions until you've answered ours!" Moe quipped and everyone nodded. Renji ran a hand over his red mane in exasperation.
"Look, I don't know you people but the chick just asked to hook up, she's pretty cute so why not?"
That got an angry Hanataro to retort, "She's not a chick, her name's Rukia."
"Yeah, and this isn't just some stupid hook up!" Kon added.
"Woah! Woah! Whatever okay! I didn't know the girl had cavalry." He raised his hands in defeat. He slowly got up and dusted himself up a bit. "I'll leave her alone then." He waved his hand towards Rukia who was a few steps away from the group.
"Hey! Turns out, I have to cancel tomorrow after all!"
"What why!?" Rukia, shocked by the sudden change in decision, quickly pushed through the crowd of men to confront Renji.
The young man shrugged, "Well, turns out your friends don't want me near you. I don't wanna cause you trouble or anything."
"Oh... I see, um... excuse me for one moment," she flashed him her sweet smile before she turned to glare at the guilty party. Her eyes glowed and they didn't even know how it happened but they were all quickly dragged to the side by the petite girl's inhumanly strong grip.
"What the hell do you guys think you're doing!?" She snapped at them in frustration.
"But Rukia, are you sure that guy is fit to be a donor?" Kon couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, I'm sure," she replied in all seriousness.
"Hey, we're just looking out for you!" This time it was Ichigo's turn to clear out the reason behind their behaviour but Rukia couldn't care less about it.
"I don't care! If your 'looking out for me' is just going to cause me to lose another potential donor then please, stop because it's not helping better my situation at all." She turned her back on them and walked back towards Renji, leaving the young men pondering about what she said.
"Hey, so sorry about that. We still on for tomorrow?" She tried to put up the best apologetic smile she could muster that would hopefully change his mind. He looked back and forth at the guys, who were sending him menacing looks, and Rukia as though weighing out his pros and cons.
But of course, it all came down to the fact that nobody could ever say no to that smile.
Rukia beamed when Renji actually decided to nod. And with that, they bid each other farewell and he went on his way. The girl turned back to the guys who all wore their guilty faces on. She sighed and figured maybe she was a little bit too hard on them.
"Look you guys, I really appreciate you caring about me and all," she took a forkful of strawberry cheesecake in her mouth before she continued, "...but I have to deal with this on my own or else I'll accomplish nothing." The boys just watched her eat their strawberry cheesecake peace offering which she gladly accepted without even thinking twice.
"We get that... But why that guy? He looks like an idiot," Moe moped, slumping himself on the table of the cafe they were in right now.
Rukia cleared out, "He says he's a Biology major."
"Study of life. How perfect is he for the job!" Kon exclaimed sarcastically.
Keigo who was already slumped on the table as well began to sob and groan at the unfairness of fate. "Oh our poor goddess. I still can't believe it... I can't imagine those vile hands touching our princess. His filthy lips on her body... noooo... nooo... That bionic man is surely going to crush her if—"
And for the second time this day, spilt drink managed to join the group's table. The iced tea that is now splashed across the table is slowly spreading itself without anyone trying to stop it. Instead, all eyes were on the owner of the drink, a.k.a. the culprit of the accident, who was now staring blankly into space as though she was lost in thought. Rukia blinked her eyes multiple times as if she got cut off from her own daydreaming. That's when she realized that her ears were being covered by strong male hands. She looked up and saw Ichigo, who was standing behind her, staring back down at her. He pulled off his hands from her ears when her own unconsciously held onto his wrists.
"Don't listen to that idiot." He nodded towards Keigo. "You'll be fine. For a small person, you're stronger than all of us put together, surely you'll be able to handle one guy."
"Mmm," she replied unaware that she was still holding onto him.
The few seconds that past felt like a small eternity which ended when Ichigo decided to retrieve back his hands from her hold on them. Though she didn't want him to do so, she made no move to protest. They all fell silent after that with everyone feeling sympathy for the girl.
"Are you absolutely sure that he's—"
"YES." She said for the umpteenth time with a slight roll of her eyes at hearing the question again from Keigo. But as soon as she shot him down he got up like a spring and exclaimed that he just got an idea. He turned to Moe and started whispering something to his ear.
Those who weren't involved in the whispers looked at each other, in confusion but were all thinking the same thing. They have a bad feeling about this.
After their Sunday school escapades, they all found themselves back at the house, in the living room, gathered on the couch as they waited for Keigo who's yet to make an announcement about his light bulb moment. Moe came to join the others from the kitchen and handed a bowl of popcorn to Rukia which she, without any second thoughts, began eating.
Finally, Keigo arrived while clearly holding something behind him. He eyed each one of his housemates before he let out a smile which Ichigo swore to god gave him the creeps. He who was standing behind the couch was freaking out, and yet the three who were sitting on the sofa, Hanataro, Rukia, and Kon, didn't even flinch. Heck, Moe was even sitting on the floor, so he was literally closest to the weirder than usual Keigo.
Clearing his throat, Keigo began relaying his announcement. "Gentlemen and my lady, I would like to welcome you all to our official Sunday Movie night!"
"Movie night?" Rukia repeated, she obviously wasn't expecting that.
Ichigo sighed, "I'm out." This time he was sure that this has bound to be another waste of time from the great Keigo Asano. But before the carrot top could even step out, Keigo's surprise had to stop him in his tracks when he brought out the black CD case that he was holding behind his back.
"Tonight's Film Featuring: Sex Vixen!"
Even before anyone could protest or kill Keigo, he motioned for them to hear him out first as he explains. "Listen! So I was thinking, tomorrow, I'm guessing will be our dear goddess's first time doing the act of love making, right?" She nodded.
"I figured, how can we help? And since we can't be there during the act, we can give her tips on what to do."
"Tips?" Rukia blinked at hearing the suggestion.
"You're sick." Hanataro muttered in disgust.
"Oh come on! This would be good because that way, that bastard Renji can't take advantage of our Rukia!"
"But what does that have to do with the porn you're holding?" Kon posed, also doubting the proposal.
"Glad you asked! Since Rukia's watched it before, she must have some questions. So it's up to us to clear stuff for her." Keigo handed Rukia the remote. "Here you go. We are going to watch the entire thing. And if you have any queries, just pause and we'll answer your question."
Rukia looked at the remote for a moment. Ichigo watched the petite girl ponder about the offer.
Is she really considering this!?
He then turned to Keigo, "If this is just a ploy to realize your sick and twisted fetish for watching porn—"
"Okay. Let's do it." Rukia replied with full determination written across her face.
"Yes!" Keigo literally fist pumped at hearing her response.
"What the fuck!? Are you crazy!?"
Rukia simply shrugged at Ichigo's outburst. "Well, he has a point."
"See? I have a point. You're welcome not to join Ichigo, if it's too much for your virgin eyes."
He felt his vein pop in annoyance at his housemate's cockiness. "If you keep talking like that I'm going to make sure that you'll never be able to watch porn ever again."
And without further adieu, they played the video.
While watching, Ichigo remembered his encounter with Rukia the night before and his hand unconsciously swung to his ear—the one Rukia bit. Watching this now clearly sheds some light on what she was doing back then when she tried to re-enact the first scenes in this stupid porn video.
"I've waited all day for this." The man in the video seductively murmured to his sexy co-star and the scene quickly escalated from there. The two stars started to lavish every inch of each other while the woman began to elicit loud and hot moans. Every second was heating up so perfectly when...
PAUSE.
All the men blinked their eyes as though each of their fantasies have just been cut short.
"You paused?" Keigo turned to Rukia.
"Yes. I have a question."
"Shoot."
"Why does she have to make those loud noises?"
"What kind of question is that? It feels good, she moans," Ichigo pointed out like it was the most obvious logic.
"I get that!" She cleared out. "But does it have some different effect if you just go 'mmmn... ah... oohh...' than going 'Oh! AH! MNNN! YESSS! AAAAH!'"
Their jaws practically dropped and Ichigo's hand quickly covered her lips to stop any of those sounds that were coming out of her mouth. She blinked her eyes innocently at the men who can't even look at her right now as they tried to shake off the sound of her moans from their heads.
They were sure of one thing though, whether it was loud or not, it definitely has a definite effect if you're hearing it live.
Oh they could feel it now... how bad this idea was.
As Keigo's brilliant plan of dissecting a porn video continued, Rukia was pausing for every 10 seconds.
And her questions...
Oh god, her questions turned from bad to worse. Some questions they didn't even dare ask themselves. And some, completely unanswerable seeing as they were ALL virgins in that room.
"Gross but that's his... why would she do that?"
"What does that taste like?"
"I don't think my legs can go that far, do I have to do that?"
"Do I have to bend that way?"
"Doesn't that hurt?"
"Augh... Do I have to swallow it?"
They're reactions to her questions and comments were either silence, face palm, mad blush of embarrassment or the ever so rusting comment "because it feels good".
Which was of course followed by the never ending question "Why?" from the petite girl.
Why?
WHY!?
WHO THE HELL KNOWS!?
IT'S HUMAN NATURE!
Ichigo swore that Rukia was definitely way worse than porn. With the way she makes you cringe and feel turned on at the same time, it was indeed very unnerving.
Miraculously, and fortunately for all of them, they actually survived the whole video. It was less than a half hour but felt like hours because of all the question and answer portions courtesy of the midget from the future. Never in a million years did they expect that they'll ever dissect a porn video and from that point on, all the men swore to never ever do it again.
"So basically Rukia, everything you watched just now, don't do it." Kon summarized the whole educational point of the activity while he turned off the TV.
"Not a single one?"
All of them shook their heads.
"Just go with a quickie or something," Keigo suggested.
"What's that?"
"It's quick sex."
"Was that in the video? Is there a video for that? Can we watch it—"
"NO!" They all cried out in chorus.
"Okay..." She mumbled in defeat.
Kon sighed, "Quickies are like traditional sex. Let him in, let him cum and you're done. Not much foreplay, just do the deed and you're done. Thus the term, quickie. Cause it's suppose to be quick... It's quick relief."
"Oh..." Rukia nodded in understanding.
For some reason, all of them were aching for a bath now—a long stress relieving bath. Rukia didn't really understand why the boys seemed really exhausted after what they just did, when all they did was watch some gross video of two people having sex but she was glad they did that question and answer thing. At least now she understood better... a little better than before and hopefully that helps her for her big day tomorrow.
She was lying down on her spot on Ichigo's bed when the owner of said bed returned from his routine bath and was just finishing drying his orange hair. He brought out one of the books he borrowed from the library that morning, sat on the bed next to the petite girl and proceeded reading hoping to at least clear his head of everything that they just watched earlier or any remnants of the question and answer charade.
"Ichigo..." She called out sitting up. He regarded her with a slight hum but he never took his eyes from the page on his book. "You... said you haven't done it before, right?"
"Oh god, not you too." He threw his head back in annoyance for hearing something like that for the nth time today.
"I just wanna know. If you're gonna do it, how would you do it?"
He thought about the question for a moment while looking at the ceiling then he looked at her with a scowl.
"What do you mean how?"
"You know, like what would you do?"
"What would I do?" He repeated, unsure if he got her question right and when she nodded, he continued. "I'd probably do it normally. You've seen the video too, that was not normal."
"Really?" Rukia's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "They seem to like it though."
"They're porn stars. That's what they do for a living," he pointed out as he went back to reading.
"So... you won't ever do anything that we saw in the video? Ever?"
There was a pause.
Well, he didn't want to say never because there are stuff on that video that seemed doable—and having these thoughts right now was somehow turning him on and taking that as a bad sign, he tried his best to shove those thoughts aside.
"Let's just put it this way," he began to explain. "when the time comes, I will probably just stick to instincts and not techniques that I accumulate from watching porn videos."
"Instincts? You mean, like a primal sex demon?" She teased.
"Haha," he chuckled bitterly then his face turned serious. "No. I meant that I'll probably just make sure that the girl I do it with gets the pleasure she deserves. Since she let me do her, I guess that's something to be appreciative of."
"What if she's a virgin?" She quickly let out without even realizing it.
He raised an eyebrow at her in suspicion but she quickly added, "You know... just... hypothetically."
"Then all the more reason to be gentle," he answered simply while looking back at his book.
"Do you..." she hesitated a bit but asked anyway. "...like it gentle?" She let the blush that crept her cheeks fill her face with warmth.
Ichigo shrugged, "I... hmm... I guess gentle isn't bad—"
"Primal sex demon," she joked.
"Or going rough once in awhile. It really doesn't matter if you're doing it with the person you want to do it with for the rest of your life..." They ended up staring at each other with both of their cheeks graced with a slight blush. They quickly avoided each other's gaze to cut off the growing tension. Ichigo scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Aaand that ends this awkward conversation. I can't believe I told you that," he murmured.
"Sorry." Then he noticed from his peripheral vision that she was in deep thought.
" Okay, just remember this." He faced her completely this time, not caring if he still had some remnants of that blush visible on his cheeks. He needs to tell her this. "Tomorrow if he tries anything, anything at all that you don't like. Just zap him until he passes out. You got that?"
Hearing that advice actually made her smile. "Yes, sir."
"Good. Now get some sleep, you need to rest so that your zapping skills are twice as strong tomorrow."
In the middle of the night, Rukia for some reason woke up with an uneasy feeling tugging on her chest. She tried her best to go back to sleep but she couldn't. Somehow in her subconscious, she knew that if she slept, time will move even quicker. She sat up and looked at the young man sleeping next to her. With that, she knew exactly what was bothering her. She observed the young man's face then she bit her lower lip when her eyes set on his lips.
No, Rukia. You shouldn't do this.
He's made his decision.
But...
Slowly, she inched herself closer to him with her face leaning closer to his.
Maybe... There's still a chance.
Her lips were merely an inch away from his.
No. Stop.
She looked at him intently and watched while he slept peacefully, no signs of worry or anger or anything—just innocence and peace.
I can't do it. I've already found someone else.
Her fingers curled over his chest as she worked on her inner struggles on what to do next.
But... what's just one more night.
Her face then moved to close the gap between their lips.
Dream of me for one more night.
She pulled away with her eyes emitting a yellow glow.
So that you'll realize...
She blinked her eyelids a few times until the glow ceased then she rested her head on his chest.
That I...
The young man's arm unconsciously held her tighter against him and she relaxed on his hold.
...want it to be you.
