Trick or Treat

Part 4

"Oh, crap we made him pissed." Renji stated after he changed back into his clothes.

"Don't say we, you're the one who said something to him before he stormed off." Rukia remarked back at him.

"Huh, ya can't blame this all on me! " Renji snapped pointing at himself, and then at Chad, Orihime, Rukia, and Ishida. "You guys came up with this costume try on thing, and ya had to put him in a dress! Not that I'm complain, mind ya, it was really fuckin hysterical! But were talking about Ichigo here, ya know. I'll go speak with him, and try ta calm him down." He then pulled Rukia to the side away from the others to only address her. "Rukia, you need to talk to Orihime about inviting the Taichou KuchikiTaichou Kenpachi, Kira, and Shuuhei to the party. They've all expressed an interest in comin. I don't know what has gotten into the Taichou Kuchiki though; it's very strange that he would want to join us at a party."

Rukia nodded in agreement, "I know it unnerves me too." I wonder why he wants to come, is he checking what I do on my free time? Not only that, but what's he going to come as? He knows it's a costume party. I honestly can't imagine Ni-sama dressed up in costume. A soft smile appeared on her face.

And what about Taichou Kenpachi, does he want to fight with Ichigo again? God, I hope not! He'll ruin the party for sure. Rukia starts to imagine of all things, Taichou Kenpachi dressed as a warped clown chasing Ichigo through Orihime's house with his Zanpakutou. 'Come on Ichigo fight me, ya bastard,' he cries, and then out the blue Kenpachi stops and gets a sinister smile as he faces Ichigo and recites, 'They all float down here.'

I shiver runs down her spine at her way ward imagination. Damn it! I told Ichigo I didn't want to watch those Halloween Movies, but he said it would be fun. Fun my ass; I've had nightmares for the past week! Shit, they're scarier than any hollow I've ever faced. The worst was that clown, the movie sucked, but that clown was just damn creepy. I got to remember what the name of that one was so he can't trick me into watching it again. It again, … she mentally repeats to herself,… It again, OH! That's it; the name of the movie was IT. Thank God! Now he won't be able to get me to fool me. HA! Her mind returned to her previous thought, something is defiantly up with Ni-sama and Taichou Kenpachi, but I can't figure out what it is? Well, I guess I'll just have to wait and see. I do have the feeling that this party is going to be very interesting indeed.

Renji gave her a slight nervous smile, "Well, I'll be off. If I don't come back in 10 minutes send reinforcements."

Renji left the store and saw Ichigo sitting on a near by bench. Ichigo had his arms crossed and his eyes closed. He still had an apparent scowl plastered on his face. "Yo, Ichigo." Renji called out as he walked over to the substitute shinigami.

Ichigo opened his eyes and glared at the red head, "What the hell do ya want? Ya, want to embarrass me again?"

Renji scratched the top of his head, "Ichigo, it's not like that."

"Yeah, right!" snapped Ichigo as he sprung up from the bench to confront Renji, "and where are the others to afraid to face me, huh?"

Renji looked at him trying to contemplate how to calm him down. Wow, he thought, he is really pissed! Maybe if I try ta joke with him it might help. Renji shoved his hands into his pockets causing the front of his already loose waisted jeans to dip down farther to show the top of his hip bones. "Well, I'm the sacrificial lamb, ha, in this case the sacrificial sheep."

"Funny, har har, Ren." murmured Ichigo as his eyes involuntarily look to the tanned and tattoo marked skin of Renji's lower waist that peeked between the pants and shirt. As soon as he realized what he was doing, he quickly shifted his eyes to the ground hoping Renji didn't notice what he had done. He then turned his back to him and stated dryly, "If ya got enough laughs at my expense, ya can leave now."

Renji grabbed Ichigo's shoulder and spun him around. "Ichigo, stop it! It was a joke that they pulled, and ya got ta admit it was funny."

Ichigo chocolate orbs met Renji's amber ones and flared, "Kay, I give ya that, but they were not all to blame. What ya said in there was uncalled for. Ya stepped over the line, Renji."

"Nani?" Renji stuttered while his hand dropped from Ichigo's shoulder and he stepped back from him. Then realization hit him square between the eyes, "Oh, you're talking about the cute comment I made." he grinned.

Ichigo's eyes widen and he made a face of ignorance at Renji, and sarcastically said, "Duh, Renji!" Ichigo then, even surprising himself at the time by his action, with his palm smacked Renji on the forehead. "You're still not the brightest one, are ya?"

"HEY!" yelled Renji out of shock that Ichigo had the balls to do that, but he quickly got over retaliating when he saw Ichigo just stare at his hand like it was a foreign entity. Renji chuckled to himself, 'Man, he's so damn cute sometimes!' "Ichigo," Renji said to get his attention back. When Ichigo looked over at him, he continued saying very sincerely, "I wasn't making fun of ya."

"Huh?" Ichigo responded dumbfounded.

Renji just went on with what he was saying, "I really meant what I said, you're cute."

Ichigo's eyes flared back to life and his brow creased, "Come on, Renji. Stop the shit okay. I've had enough."

Renji threw his arms up in the air in exasperation. "Ichigo, ya just don't get it do ya? Renji said frustrated. "Have ya thought ta why all the girls flock ta ya, baka?" Hah, he is like Little Bo Peep with his own flock! The thought came to Renji's mind.

Ichigo stared at him like he had grown to heads or something! "What are ya going on about Renji?"

Renji slapped himself in the forehead, hanging his head down. "God, Ichigo, ya can't be so dense?' He then lifted his head and locked their line of sight. "Girls, ya know what they are right? Well, they're always hangin around ya. Do ya actually believe it's just cause you're a nice guy?"

Ichigo incredulously and innocently remarked, "They're my friends, Renji." He just wasn't getting it.

Renji shook his head at him with silly grin. "Ichigo let me explain something to ya. They're not just hangin around ya cause you're their friend. They like ya cause of your looks."

Ichigo looked to the ground and ran his hand through his orange spikes trying to wrap his mind around what Renji just said to him. He raised his head and replied, "Renji, let me get this straight ya think they like me cause I'm what cute?"

Renji looked to the sky with his hands raised palms up like he was praising the heavens, "He finally get's it?"

"OH!" replied Ichigo when the light above his head switched on. But, wait Renji also said I was cute, and he just said that he wasn't joking with me. Does that mean? Oh, shit I hope that means. Well, now is a good time as ever to find out, right? A huge grin came over his face which he tried to hide behind his hand.

"Well, what about you, Ren. Why are ya always hangin around me?" Ichigo asked sheepishly.

"I, uhh, I…" stumbled Renji not ready to answer cause he was put on the spot. Ichigo just stared at him with those tender, brown eyes, not making it any easier to answer him.

"You said, ya thought I was cute, is that true?' Ichigo pressed.

"Ichi, I …," mumbled Renji shifting from foot to foot nervously.

"Kurosaki-kun," both of them heard being cried out by Orihime as she raced over to them interrupting the two of them. When she got there, she gasped with shorten breath, "I'm so sorry. I hope you can forgive me."

"Oh Orihime, ya didn't have to run out here to apologize. You, know I can never stay angry at you." smiled Ichigo at her to reassure her. "And of course I can," he looked over at Renji uncertainly and saw Renji was still flustered by his questions. Ichigo smirked at the unsuspecting red head with a sparkle in his eye. Renji's mouth fell open at the look Ichigo just gave him. Ichigo switch his attention back to Orihime and nonchalantly said, "Uhh, why don't we head back in and get those decorations we came for."

"Hai, that's sounds great." responded Orihime oblivious to the tension that was in the air.
