Is a cat talking
"Are humans talking"
' Is thoughts'
A quick review of what happened in the last chapter:
She saw a light emanating room the basement so she headed down there, hoping that there was someone down there to turn her back. Shirogane and Keichiro had better be there she mewed to herself.

Whaaaaaaaaaaat! The kiss doesn't work?

Ichigo walked down the stairs and quickly glanced around the room. On her first look she thought the lab was deserted, but after looking again she noticed Shirogane sitting in a corner in front of a small computer screen. She slowly walked over to him and jumped into his lap to see what he was doing.
(Ryou's P.O.V)
I was typing an essay on the computer about the effect the Red data animal genes had on humans when I felt something jump lightly into my lap. I paused in my typing and looked down into two pink eyes.
"Oy! Strawberry, What're you doing here?" I asked, shocked at the fact that she'd come all the way over here to get changed back to a human, unable to resist, I continued sarcastically, "We're you so anxious for a kiss? You know, you're such a baka Strawberry. You could have just caught a bird or something to kiss, but nooo you come all the way to me for one."
From the way her claws were digging into my thigh, I could tell that Ichigo was not impressed with my answer. Nya she said angrily, understandable really, since she was a cat, but infuriating since I would have liked to know what happened. 'I wonder how I could understand her...Right, I can become a cat too!!' I mentally smacked myself in the head for being so idiotic. I think Ichigo's beginning to rub off on me. I quickly started to change into my cat form and was startled to find myself sitting under Ichigo. I squirmed out from under her and asked her what was wrong.
Isn't it obvious you big baka she mewed, cleaning her paw and jumping onto the ground, kicking me in the back on the way. I'm stuck in this dumb form and can't seem to get out no matter who or what I kiss!!! And I was supposed to be doing something with Miwa and Moe tomorrow at the mall. It's all your fault
With that Ichigo began to cry (a/n: can cats even cry? Oh well, in my story, Ichigo will be a special case, since she's actually human; besides, this is a fan fiction after all. Anyways, on with the show.) Now, I may be a jerk to her at times but I really can't stand to see a girl, any girl, cry. So I did what anyone would have done in my situation and gave Ichigo a hug and began to rub her back in soothing circles. Although it was difficult, not to mention awkward in my cat form, I somehow managed to pull it off. When she'd finished crying, Ichigo looked up at me and said quietly: thanks Shirogane-san.
We sat there for awhile, after separating, like normal cats would until: Shirogane-san, would you please change me back now? Ah! Of course, I quickly grabbed her and gave her a small kiss on the lips, enjoying the short contact of our lips. I closed my eyes waiting to feel her grow and become human again but it didn't happen. I quickly broke off the kiss and opened my cat eyes. There sat a depressed-looking, cat-formed Ichigo. She didn't seem at all happy.
