Kyou: Time for Chapter 5! Get ready!

Toushirou: You little jerk.

Kyou: W-What?! What I do now, Toushirou?

Nanao: Can we please get on with the chapter?!

Rukia: I don't know, watching those two fight is really funny!

Orihime: Chapter Start!


The Heartbroken!


"So Ichigo, you like anyone?", asked Shuuhei. The two were done with their lunches, & Shuuhei decided to tell him. But first, he needed to reassure himself.

"Yeah! I'm kinda seeing someone. I think I love him!", Ichigo said, happy to tell Shuuhei the news. But the other wasn't nearly as happy as Ichigo was.

"W-What?! Why the hell didn't you tell me?! Why the fuck did you play me along in this date?!" Shuuhei didn't want to scream. He wanted to remain calm, to figure this all out. But he couldn't. He burst out. He screamed at the top of his lungs, grabbing everyone's attention. Quick to act, Rukia shoved Toushirou into the sidewalk, calling him a perv, redirecting everyone's attention to her & the white-haired teen. Rukia winked at Ichigo as to say, 'Go ahead & continue'. But someone wasn't happy with this descision. Everyone was staring at Toushirou like he was a pervert. But he wasn't. Toushirou would never do that, right?

"Bitch, don't do that! Now everyone is staring at me!", Toushirou yelled. Nanao restrained him as he tried to leap for Rukia, giving out a murderous glare.

"Uh-oh! Taichou's mad! Run Rukia-chan! Run!", Matsumoto's voice yelled from atop the building. Everyone looked at the shinigami like they were some sort of show.

"Uh, um, this is all a play! We're just practicing!", Orihime yelled, trying to make the audience ignore them. But it didn't work.

"Nice try Orihime!", Matsumoto yelled. Matsumoto thought of something to do, & suddenly reached for her bossom. "Hey! Check this out!"

Trying to stop Matsumoto, Nanao-chan took off her glasses & glared at Matsumoto, freezing her completely. But...she was too late. Matsumoto had already revealed her ample cough, & Nanao freezing her just added to the extreme, straight 'exposition'.

"Baka!", Rukia yelled.

"Oops!", Nanao yelled. "Kira-fukutaichou!" Nodding to Nanao, Kira quickly grabbed the frozen, exposed Matsumoto & disappeared, leaving the audience in complete shock. Orihime just laughed, followed by Rukia, & then Nanao. Toushirou, free from Nanao's grasp, rubbed his temples & quickly left the scene. Rukia turned to Ichigo & Shuuhei's direction, to find them gone.

Elsewhere, Ichigo & Shuuhei retreated to another alley, far away from everyone else.

"Why the fuck didn't you tell me!?", Shuuhei yelled.

"Y-You didn't ask...", Ichigo said. He didn't know why Shuuhei was so mad, so he asked. "Why are you mad, Shuuhei? I thought you'd be happy for me & Uryuu! Why the hell are you mad?!"

"Uryuu?!" Shuuhei knew everything at that moment. Why Renji didn't come home, why Rukia & the other were spying on him, why he had the urge to throw up, why he hated Ichigo right now, why he hated the world. "Uryuu?", Shuuhei said, calmer this time.

"Yeah! We just got together yesterday. Renji came over, but he was acting weird. Do you know why?"

"Idiot. Why do you think Renji was acting weird? I'll give you a hint: it has something to do with this."

"Hu-", Ichigo said, interrupted by Shuuhei's lips on his. Ichigo didn't want this. He didn't want Shuuhei, did he? He knew Uryuu wasn't putting out much for him, but he still liked him. He didn't 'love' Uryuu yet, but he was sure to say it after he & Uryuu finally did it. He wanted to make that moment perfect, but now, he was just confused. Why the hell did Shuuhei do this to him? Why the hell did Renji do this to him & Uryuu? Why was it that everything perfect yesterday was all a bunch of shit now? Shuuhei parted ways from Ichigo.

"I'm sorry. I couldn't resi-"


Meanwhile, Uryuu, wanting to meet up with Ichigo, dropped by his house, only to be attacked by Isshin.

"Welcome home, so...-wait! You aren't Ichigo!", Isshin said, kicking Uryuu to the ground with a flying kick.

"No! I'm not", Uryuu said, trying to breathe.

"Otousan! Get off Ishida-kun!", Yuzu yelled, trying to get her idiotic father off Uryuu before anything bad happened.

"Sorry there Uryuu!", Isshin yelled, helping the Quincy up.

"Who's there?!", Karin yelled, coming downstairs. "Oh! Uryuu-kun! I saw Renji earlier, he was acting strange! Do you know why?"

"Renji? Uh, no. Is Ichigo home?", Uryuu asked. He was worried about Renji, but he hadn't forgot why he was here.

"No. He went out. Rukia-chan did too!", Yuzu answered.

"Rukia-chan? She's here too?", Uryuu questioned.

"Well, I'm gonna leave you three to whatever!", Isshin yelled, heading upstairs.

"Well, I'm going! I'll go find Renji!", Uryuu yelled. He wanted to see Ichigo, but he guessed he had to wait. Until then, he wanted to figure out why Renji was acting weird.

He met the red-headed shinigami in a local park, sitting there, his face in his hands. He seemed like he was crying, but Uryuu couldn't tell from so far away. He approached the shinigami, who hadn't notice Uryuu was there until Uryuu spoke.

"Renji? Why are you crying?", Uryuu asked, rubbing Renji's back to try & soothe his tears.

"Y-You! Why...why...", Renji said, obviously still in shock.

"Nani? What?", Uryuu asked. Renji didn't answer. He cried into his hands again, until Uryuu hugged him, telling him to calm down & to tell him everything. Renji felt warm in Uryuu's arms. After walking around all night, anything felt warmer than himself. 'He's...he's...hugging me? I feel so warm now. I should tell him. Maybe his whole thing with Ichigo was just a thing?', Renji thought, trying to think everything was okay. He wanted to tell Uryuu everything, to get everything off his chest, but he didn't want to trouble the blue-haired teen as well. He wanted everything to be what he pictured in his dreams, but the shinigami knew that could never happen. Uryuu was the first to break the silence.

"Renji? What's wrong? You finally stopped crying...but tell me. What's wrong?"

"I...I..."

"You what? Come on! We're not getting anywhere if you don't tell me!" Taking that last sentence of Uryuu's into mind, Renji told him. He told him everything.

"I...love you! I came to tell you yesterday, but, when I saw you & Ichigo yesterday...I just...came to conclusions. I'm sorry. It was just a thing between you two, right?"

"Renji..."

"What? It was, wasn't it?"

"No. I'm sorry. I'm in love with him. I'm sorry, but I don't like you in that way. I hope we can still be friends...", Uryuu said. There it was. The 'I Don't Like You But I Hope We Can Still Be Friends' talk. It wasn't something Renji wanted to hear. It really wasn't. But it was happening. It was. Uryuu began walking, but stopped, asking where Renji was staying.

"The Urahara Shoten", Renji answered.


Elsewhere, in the alley, Shuuhei was disrupted by Ichigo slamming his mouth against his. Shuuhei kissed back, of course, but at the same time was completely confused by Ichigo's actions. It couldn't be true. It just couldn't. But, it was. Ichigo was kissing Shuuhei, & he was kissing back. He didn't want that moment to end, but of course, it did. Ichigo had came up for air. After filling his lungs with sweet oxygen, the vaizard spoke.

"I'm sorry. I..."

"Why'd you do it?"

"I don't know! I just did, alright! I'm fucking sorry!", Ichigo yelled. His voice attracted someone. That someone came closer, eventually finding Ichigo & Shuuhei in the alley. Hiding his prescence, that special someone began to watch.

"You love Uryuu, huh?", Shuuhei asked.

"I don't know. I was going to tell him after tonight...hopefully. But now, I don't think that'll happen!", Ichigo yelled. His voice became tired of yelling so much, & he just burst into tears. However, Shuuhei held him tightly, eventually kissing him once more. Ichigo, wrapping his arms around Shuuhei's neck, kissed back. The person who was watching them was in shock, & he began running away as fast as he could. He ran for the Urahara Shoten. He knocked at the entrance. No one answered. There was a sign that said, 'Be Back Tomorrow!' Just great. Seeing his boyfriend kiss another man was terrifying. What an asshole Ichigo is. What a jerk Shuuhei was. What an idiot he'd been himself. Just as Uryuu began walking away, someone answered the door, wearing nothing but a pair of red boxers. It was...Renji.

"U-Uryuu!", Renji yelled. Uryuu didn't turn back. The shinigami lunged forward grabbing Uryuu's wrist, pulling him backwards into an embrace from behind. "What's wrong?"

"I saw him, Renji. I saw Ichigo kiss someone...else."

"Shuuhei?"

"Yeah..."


Kyou: There ya have it! Some IchiXShuu & a little suggestive UryuXRenj! What'd ya think, Toushirou?

Toushirou: Hitsugaya-taichou! I thought it was too mushy. They were OOC too.

Kyou: Sorry! I'll work on that. Nanao, get 'em!

Nanao: Ugh.. I can't believe I'm going to say it..

Kyou: Come on! Say it!

Nanao: Fine. Next Time: "The Breakup!" & some UryuXRenj S-M-U-T...
