Series: Bleach

"Excuse me." Ururu said to her boss.
"Yes~?" said Kiriha with a smile. "What is it Ururu-chan?"
"Um...could I have a day off?"
"Oh?" he looked at her in surprise. "You want the day off? Well I don't see why not, but where'd this come from? You never asked before."
"Well….I um, just wanted to ask."
"Sure thing, go right ahead."
Ururu nodded before walking out of the store.
(Later)
She was walking down the street while looking at the ground. 'What should I do? This is the first time I had a day off.' she looked up to the sky. 'Usually I just keep working at the store.'
While she looked at the sky, she didn't know she got into the road, or that a car was about to hit her.
HONK HONK!
She blinked before getting picked up by a familiar figure and got out of the road just in time. "Huh?"
"Are you ok?" Asked Ichigo while not knowing who he just helped.
"Oh...I...t-thanks." She blushed while covering her face.
He looked down and saw it was the girl that nearly killed him a long while back, like a few months back. 'Huh? What's she doing out here?'
"M-Mister Kurosaki...please put me down now…" she asked pointing to the ground.
Ichigo nodded while placing her down.
"T-Thanks."
He saw her move her hands away and confirmed it was the same girl. "What are you doing out here and not at the shop…"
"It's...Ururu Tsumugiya."
"Ururu, I mean don't you work there?"
"It's my...day off." She said while looking to the side. "In a long time."
"A day off?" 'Didn't expect that.'
"Mister Kurosaki, I...I need to get going." She said while turning around.
"Hey wait, do you have a idea or… place to go?"
"...no." She admitted with a light blush. "I've never really had a day off before."
Ichigo blinked before saying. "Maybe I can help? I mean...I somehow owe you for helping me with my powers."
"I was...just helping." She smiled slightly. "No need to owe me anything."
"Well I insist, I might know some spots around town that might make your first day off something to remember."
Ururu blinked while thinking this might be a good idea. "Ok, you can take me...out…"
He blushed at the wording. "Well stick close, we don't want you getting lost."
She nodded while walking close to him.
(A few minutes later)
"Mister Kurosaki, why is Root Beer so good? It's beer right?" Ururu asked while looking at her root beer glass.
"Well not really. I'm not sure why it's called that, but it's one hundred percent soda, no alcohol in it."
"Oh." She blinked while looking at it before drinking the soda up, having a little foam being left behind on her lips. "...tasty." 'YUM!'
"I take it you never had this before?"
"No, all I had was water." She said while drinking some more.
'Kind of cute.' Ichigo thought with a smile. 'Reminds me of Yuzu when she did the same thing.'
Ururu hiccuped a little. "Sorry, hic."
"It's fine, no need to apologize."
She smiled before burping a little. "Excuse me."
"Trust me, soda can do that to you." He chuckled while Ururu finished her soda.
"Mister Kurosaki, thanks." She smiled. "You're really nice for a...strawberry?"
He inwardly groaned. 'Wonder if I should try and get it changed.'
Ururu looked at him before asking. "Can we get more Root Beer?"
"Sure thing, just don't go getting a sugar rush." he teased.
She blushed. "I don't get it...at all."
"Really?" He asked while Ururu shook her head no. "Have you ever really had any sugar?"
"No." She sighed. "I've really never had sugar or junk food, just beans and rice."
He blinked surprised. "Wait...where do you live actually? All I've seen you at is the shop."
"..." she looked away. "I used to live in Germany. My mom was...religious."
"Really?"
"Yes, but I was….a bad girl." She looked down.
"Why?"
"I can't say."
He saw her shake a little and noted to end it there.
"Mister Kurosaki, have you...ever thought of God before?"
"A little, why?"
"...mom was mad when I forgot to pray." She said sadly. "Said I had to or else fire would burn me like father."
His eyes widened while hearing her sniffle a little. 'What the hell?'
'Mom…' she thought while looking very sad and scared. "I...I escaped when she wasn't looking. She must be mad."
"...Ururu, I use to have a mom." he spoke up while looking at the counter. "She was there to make me feel better when I was own, and I miss her. One day we were walking in the rain when I saw something near the river. It looked like a girl who was going to fall in, so I ran down to try and stop them."
"What happened? Did you save her?"
"No, it wasn't even a real one." he frowned. "It was a hollow, one who uses a lure to trick people to eat their soul. I was going so fast that when my mom went after me, he….he killed her."
Ururu gasped hearing that while instinctively holding his hand tight. "I...I didn't know."
"No, it's alright." he held her hand tighter while smiling. "I miss her, but I know that she's in a better place. And if she was here, I'd say you're far from being a bad girl."
She looked down hearing that. "...but I left. She might be mad at me."
"If she was, why isn't she looking for you? And if she's looking for you, why would she get mad at you now?"
She looked away. "Because...I really am bad."
"No you're not." Ichigo frowned. "You're a good girl."
"But-"
"You're a good girl Ururu, don't ever think yourself as otherwise." He said while giving her a light hug.
She blushed at this while feeling her heart skip a beat. "M-M-Mister Kurosaki?"
"Hush." He said while using his 'brotherly' aura to help Ururu out. "Don't say a word."
She blinked while feeling relaxed and hugged back with her eyes closing. 'This feels nice.'
To the people in the room, this was so touching that some even teared up a little.
(A little while later)
"Feeling better Ururu?"
She nodded without breaking the hug.
"That's good, I thought you might have been upset at my sudden hugging."
"I...I'm not upset mister Kurosaki." She said while feeling all the negative feeling leave her body. 'This feels so warm.'
Ichigo smiled while not noticing that people were crying at the cute scene. 'This brings back memories. Maybe I should hug Yuzu and Karin when I get back?'
"Mister Kurosaki? Can you let go now? I have to pee."
"Oh! Sorry." he let go while pointing to the back. "Bathrooms are over there."
"T-Thank you!" She said before running off. 'I'm going to burst!'
'Hmm, maybe I should take her someplace more upbeat.' He thought while thinking about various ideas, including an arcade. 'Huh, kind of tricky.'
(Later)
Ururu looked at Ichigo while holding his hands. "Where are you taking me mister Kurosaki?"
"Well, that's a surprise." he smiled. "But I can guarantee you'll have fun."
She nodded while looking at the ground. 'This is nice, he's... sweet and kind.'
'I just hope she didn't have too much sugar, not sure what to tell hat n clogs if he asks why she's jumping around.' Ichigo thought while walking towards a building.
"Mister Kurosaki, did you have….a father?"
"Yes, but he's annoying."
She cocked her head. "Really?"
"Yeah, he tends to be weird, annoying and over dramatic, and likes to try and wake me up a little...weird."
"How so with the waking up part?"
"He kicks my face." Ichigo deadpanned.
"...really?"
"He does it apparently to help me get ready or whatever. Frankly it feels like some excuse to get on my nerves."
Ururu nodded. "It's just love, my father noogied me when he was...around."
He gave her hand a squeeze before seeing they reached the arcade. "We're here."
"...what's this?" She asked very confused.
"It's an arcade."
"...huh?"
"You've never even been to an arcade?"
She shook her head no. "Mom never wanted me to do anything but pray."
"Well trust me, this place is filled with lots of fun games."
"Games? Like baseball?"
"Not exactly, but there are really interesting games." He sweatdropped.
"Is it free?"
"No, but I can handle the costs."
Her eyes widened. "Y-You don't need to do that mister Kurosaki."
"Don't worry about it, I got plenty."
Ururu nodded while feeling a little happy. "O-Ok."
-Inside-
"Wow!" She said while looking around the arcade. "So many lights!"
"Just stay close ok?" Ichigo said while getting some tokens.
She nodded before he handed her some of them. "Thank you mister Kurosaki."
"Anytime Ururu."
She blushed a little before looking around for some games. "Um...where do I start exactly?"
"Anywhere."
She looked around before seeing a game with a hammer and five tiny crocodiles in a few holes. "Can I play with that?"
"Sure thing."
She smiled before putting some tokens in and grabbed the hammer.
(A few games later)
Ichigo chuckled as Ururu held a large pile of tickets in her hands, which looked about 3000 tickets or so. "Looks like you're a natural at this."
She carefully moved toward the prize counter. "I'm not that natural."
"Well, you have a very good eye for hitting the big points." He smiled. "And that is a nice part of your personality."
She blushed behind the pile while not using her voice to respond.
'Cute.' he thought as they headed to the counter. "What prize do you want Ururu?"
She placed the tickets on the table before looking around. "..." she then saw a cute teddy bear, with orange hair and a black shirt and was the size of Ichigo, on the rack. "That one."
The man behind the counter nodded and took the tickets before handing it to her which she managed to hold on.
"Are you sure you can hold on?" Ichigo asked with concern.
"I'm fine mister Kurosaki." She said while feeling the soft fur on her face. 'So soft!'
Ichigo didn't want to take a chance as he placed her on his shoulders.
"M-Mister Kurosaki?!" she stuttered with a bright red face.
"Hope you enjoy the ride." He smiled while walking away with Ururu feeling very embarrassed, yet happy at the same time.
She held on while holding onto the teddy, all the while feeling a little light headed. 'I...I...ooh…'
(A little while later)
She slowly opened her eyes while noticing the sky was turning orange. "Huh?"
"Sleep well Ururu?" Ichigo asked from under her.
She jumped and looked under. "W-What?"
"Don't worry, it's just me." He chuckled.
"But...why...huh?"
"Don't you remember? I'm being your horsey for you and your teddy."
She blushed while feeling her face heat up. "O-Oh…"
"I figured you needed it so I let you sleep on me."
"Mister Kurosaki…" she said while noticing they were near the shop. "Y-You didn't have to do that."
"Nonsense, you needed the rest."
"But...wasn't it bothering to carry me?"
He shook his head no. "It was fine."
She blinked before seeing Ichigo go on his knees as she jumped off. "Mister Kurosaki, um….thanks." She looked to the side before making the teddy's left arm move. "Mister Strawberry says thanks too."
Ichigo chuckled at this gesture. "Well if you ever get another day off you can come hang out with me if you want."
"R-Really?"
He nodded. "It would be a pleasure taking you out."
She blushed crimson hearing that. 'He...he...ohh…'
"See ya around." he waved before walking away.
Ururu looked at him while her eyes saw hearts all around him. "Mister...Kurosaki…"
(Omake)
-Seventeen months later-
"Excuse me." Spoke an older Ururu, and a little bustier version too, as she looked at her boss.
"Yes Ururu?" he smiled.
"Could I have a day off?" she smiled.
"You've been asking for a lot of them lately."
She looked flustered at that remark.
"Is there a particular reason?" he asked.
"Um….well...I just...want to see mister Kurosaki." she blushed. "I have something to...tell him."
He raised an eyebrow.
"So...please?" She asked cutely.
"Hmmmm….ok!"
She smiled before running out of the shop.
"Ah, young love."
(A few minutes later)
Ururu looked around the area while looking for Ichigo's house. 'I wonder if those protein pills Mr. Urahara are gonna keep me growing this faster.' she saw a small house and walked towards it before knocking.
Knock knock.
"Coming." Called out a voice from inside.
She looked at the door while seeing it open as a small black haired girl came out. "H-Hello."
"Hi, who are you?"
"Um...Ururu Tsumugiya." She said with a slight stutter. "I-Is mister Kurosaki home?"
"You mean Ichigo or my dad?"
"The first one." She blushed. "Is he here?"
"Yeah, hang on." She said before yelling into the house. "Ichigo! There's a girl outside looking for you!"
"WHAT?! ICHIGO HAS A SECRET GIRLFRIEND?!"
"SHUT UP GOATBEARD!"
'Must be the father.' Ururu sweatdropped.
Ichigo headed on down and smiled seeing how it was. "Hey there Ururu."
"H-Hi." She blushed while steeling herself. "Um...I need to say something important."
"What is it?"
"..." she looked at the girl, then at the others of Ichigo's family that came out to see what's going on, and sighed. "Mister Kurosaki….I...I love you and I want to date you!" she bowed down at the end of that sentence.
All of their eyes widened before Isshin cried out for joy while hugging his wife's poster.
"Oh Masaki! Our son has gotten himself a girlfriend!"
Ichigo blushed while a little stupefied. "Ururu…."
She blushed. "Please, I just...had to say that." 'He's going to say I'm a bad girl!'
Ichigo blinked while patting her head. "I gotta say, that took guts."
She looked up and blushed lightly while feeling like her ears were clogged. "What?"
"It took guts to...say that."
"S-S-S-S-S-So...does this mean…."
He nodded as Ururu blushed and felt her heart stop.
CRASH!
And fell to the ground on her back.
"Woah! Hey, you alright?"
"He he…" she muttered with a red face, swirly eyes, and a smile. "Mister Kurosaki….miss Kurosaki….he he…."
"Yes! I have a third daughter now! Way to go Ichigo!"
"Good job Ichi-nee." Smiled Yuzu while Karin gave him a thumbs up.
He blushed while picking her up and gave her a quick kiss to the cheek. He saw steam rise from her head and sweatdropped.
"Mister….Ichigo…." she smiled while the screen went black.
