"First thing first. Guys are attracted to girls. Understand?"
Rukia promptly punched Ichigo.
I have kind of expected that. But I can't think of anyway to start of this sort of conversation!
"Of course I know that you Baka!" I wonder what is he thinking? He is looking and acting so strangely! Confused? Lost of words? Annoyed? Maybe I should give him another punch to knock him back to his senses!
Before Rukia can launch another punch, the boy has already moved his mouth to speak. Sighing, he said: "Quiet. Its not easy to explain you know! Just listen k?"
The girl looked at him curiously. She hardly had seen him getting this serious.
So it must be some very serious matter for guys to be all over her right? Hey, wait. "all over"… does it mean…
"Oi, don't daydream over there!" Rukia's train of thought was rudely interrupted.
"As I was saying, guys attracted to girls. So what do you think that you did is different today to draw them to you?" the boy orally read off the script that he has mentally prepared.
I am not going to provide you with the answer if I could help it! Come on, Rukia, think!!
Rukia was silenced. She was surprised that the Baka could talk to her in such manner. It is not like him to sound so composed. The girl glanced back at him to check if indeed the boy talking to her is really Ichigo.
Ichigo was looking at Rukia for any slightest blush to indicate that she has discovered the answer. But what greeted him were a puzzled and a seemingly searching expression.
What the hell is the girl doing! Why is she looking like that back at me! It is as though she did not recognise me!
"Ah-chew!" the girl sneezed. A light breeze has made its way across the roof… caressing their hair and their school uniforms.
SCHOOL UNIFORMS!! No. Don't look there!!
Rukia looked up to the boy, in time to catch him blushing fervently! However, being Rukia, she immediately jumped to the conclusion that the guy was unwell to explain the redness of his face and his weird behaviours.
He must have overworked himself! He must go to the nurse to get treatment!
Rukia has already learnt that in the Human World, there exists a sick bay for the sick in school. She and Ichigo had to go there a few times to get excuses while they left the class to battle out Hollows.
"Ichigo, I believe you are not feeling well. So you should get some rest in the sick bay k?"
This has barely been a question. It meant more like a statement as Rukia decided to drag the poor boy to sick bay while that boy was still looking dazed.
Meanwhile, the eavesdropper has decided to backed away from the doors as Rukia dragged Ichigo towards the exit.
