Ichigo was sitting in his room reading a book when Rukia came through his window. His back was turned and he had music playing on his MP3 player in his ears. They were so loud that he did not hear Rukia come in. She walked over to the closet and placed her new dress underneath her bedding, and then closed the door. Ichigo turned around when he felt the vibration of the closet door sliding to a close.
"Where have you been?" He asked casually. He took off his ear phones as he turned in his chair. Rukia smiled as she sat down on his bed.
"So now you're worried about me? Ichigo I'm surprised. I didn't you cared about me that much. I'm sorry if I worried you." She smirked at him.
"No. It's just you'd normally tell you where you go before going." He said in a matter-of-fact tone of voice.
"So I have to tell you where I go every time I go somewhere?" She said trying to poke a little fun out of him. Ichigo growled lightly as he tightly clenched his fist, raising it in a threatening way.
"Nevermind." He said as he turned around again to go back to his reading. Rukia giggled a bit as she made her way to him. She lightly tapped him on the shoulder, and he turned around slightly annoyed.
"What?" He asked slightly raising his tone.
"I'm going to go pee." She stated innocently.
"Why did you tell me that?" He asked slightly irritated.
"Well since you care about me so much, I have to tell you every where I go so you don't get worried about me." She smiled Ichigo started to raise that fist again. She burst out laughing, as she wrapped her arms around him.
"Relax." She said. "I'm just trying to have some fun." And with that she left to go to the bathroom. Ichigo went back to reading his book as a light blush formed on his face.
"That was close." He thought to himself as he read his book with a small smile on his face. Rukia laid in the bathtub soaking in the warm water. Her thoughts wandered off to earlier today.
"Hey Rukia do you have a boyfriend?"
"Yeah, I have lots of boy friends. There's Sado, Ishida, Keigo, Ichigo, and everyone back at Soul Society."
"No. What Inoue meant was is there a guy in your life that is very close to you?"
"Well I do have my brother Byakuya…"
"NO! I meant is there someone you love."
"Well…"
"Well what? Tell us." Inoue said impatiently.
"You promise you won't tell anyone?" Rukia asked. Both Inoue and Tatsuki nodded and leaned in closer to hear her better.
"Well the truth is I really don't love anyone. Being a part of a noble family taught me to not have useless feelings for anyone like that." Rukia stated. Inoue and Tatsuki were surprised with this.
"Then wait." Tatsuki said. "What do you base the reason for getting married on?" She asked. Inoue looked at Tatsuki and then back at Rukia and nodded.
"We get married to the person who we think is one of the strongest shinigami." Rukia said as the bell rang in the kitchen.
"Oh my pizza is done." She said happily skipping into the kitchen. Rukia sat drinking her tea. Tatsuki sat there with a grin on her face as she stared off into the distance.
Inoue walked out with three plates and a pan of pizza. When she put it down on the table, Tatsuki and Rukia stared at it for a moment wondering what type of pizza it was. It had a different smell to it that they couldn't quite name.
"Umm Inoue, what kind of pizza is this?" Rukia asked as she poked at it.
"It's my favorite. It's sweet and sour chicken pizza!" She said with a smile on her face. Tatsuki groaned lightly as Rukia hesitantly picked up a piece. She inspected it thoroughly before she took a bite out of it. Tatsuki watched as she slowly chewed it and eventually swallowing it.
Suddenly Rukia began to gobble down her piece of pizza. Tatsuki was surprised. Before she could recovered from her shock, Tatsuki watched as Rukia grabbed another piece and gobbled it down.
"Oh wow this is so good!" Rukia exclaimed as she finished up eating her second piece. Tatsuki looked down at the pizza. There were small pieces of chicken, green bell peppers, yellow onions, and pineapples all on top of a sweet and sour type sauce. After inspecting the pizza as well, Tatsuki reached out and grabbed a piece and then slowly put it in her mouth. Once her taste buds got a hold of the flavor it, she too began to gobble it down.
Inoue watched as they slowly ate up nearly all of the pizza. She had two slices on her plate. She ate it slowly with her chopsticks chopping up the pizza and eating the individual pieces. After it was all said and done, Rukia had 6 pieces and Tatsuki had 5 pieces of pizza. Inoue only ate two pieces. There was an awkward silence between the three as they let their belly settle before Inoue randomly spoke.
"Let's talk about guys that we would love to have as boyfriends." Rukia and Tatsuki were a little caught off guard by this. "Tatsuki you first." She smiled.
Tatsuki glared at her for a moment before scoffing and answering. "I would have to say Sado. He looks so big and strong, it just kind of turns me on." Inoue giggled like a little girl as Tatsuki lightly blushed.
"Your turn Rukia," Inoue said through her giggle. "Who would you say would make the perfect husband?" Rukia sat there thinking about it for a moment before speaking.
"Well I would have to say…"
"Oi! Rukia you done yet? I still need to brush my teeth and take a shower." Ichigo knocked on the bathroom door. Ichigo stood there growling lightly as he waited impatiently for her to finish. He had a towel in his hand and some spare clothes in the other.
Rukia just sunk deeper into the water as she smiled.
"Oh Ichigo."
