--Uryuu's POV--
"Ichigo! Wait!" I called after the orange-haired boy.
"Yes? What is it?" He said with a rare smile.
"I--" No. I wasn't able to tell him that I--cut myself. 'Would he care?' a portion of me asks. The rest of my mind overrides the thought with 'Why wouldn't he care, if he kissed me, he's got to care...' But I still couldn't tell him.
"I'll see you later." Ichigo said, turning away.
--
--Ichigo's POV--
I copied down the notes for history class, all the while unable to think of anything but Uryuu, left at the clinic with my--dad. When the teacher turned around to write something on the board, Rukia leaned over and began talking to me.
"Hey! Ichigo-kun!"
"What is it?" I asked, glancing at the dark-haired girl.
"Where's Ishida-kun? I haven't seen him today. Is he still at the clinic?" She asked, genuine concern showing on her face and in her voice.
"Yeah. He had to stay there because of the whole blood-loss thing." I whispered back.
"Oh. Is he okay? I mean, otherwise?"
"I think so. They said he can leave tomorrow."
"Oh. That's good." she said, nodding. Just then the teacher whipped around, and she jumped to get back in her seat, like nothing happened.
Several minutes later, it was time for lunch hour. While everyone else stayed behind to eat in class, or go outside, I began to walk home.
"Ichigo-kun! Hey!"
Turning around, I saw Chad and the others waving me over. Walking over to them, I saw they were all holding fliers.
"Yo! What's that?" I asked, pointing toward the papers.
"This? It's a discount ad for a haunted house that is coming." Sanzo said.
"Haunted house, huh? Sounds like fun."
--
"Ichigo-kun? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in class?" Uryuu asked me, unaware of how much I like him.
"It's lunch hour, and I had nothing better to do, so..."
"Oh..." He looked away from me, looking disappointed.
"And you weren't there, so I decided to come to you." At this he smiled.
"Well, I'm glad to have you."
--
--Uryuu's POV--
Ichigo!! How sweet! My heart began to melt as the object of my desires sits beside me. In my mind I saw him.
As soon as he was dismissed, he ran out of the class and down the stairs, me the only thing on his mind.
'Oh, if only that was the truth...T.T' I whined to myself, resting my chin on my hands.
"Ishida-kun? Is something wrong?" Ichigo reached over, pressing his hand on my already hot forehead. "You've got a little fever..." I closed my eyes, his fingers cool against my skin.
"Ichigo-kun..." I whispered, unable to keep myself from saying what I was about to.
"Yes?" Ichigo asked, a small smile playing across his face.
"Please don't call me 'Ishida-kun' anymore..."
"What? Then...What should I call you?" His smile began to fade. What I wouldn't do to keep that smile there!
"Just call me...What you used to..." I said, with a blush.
"You mean 'Uryuu?'" The other boy asked.
"Y-yes..." I was unable to hide my blush any longer. Turning to look at him, I felt the anger flaring up inside me. "And-And why did you stop?!" I demanded. "Huh?!
Why?!"
"I--I dunno..."
"I mean...I..." before I could finish, or even apologize, I swooned and fell into Ichigo's lap.
--Ichigo's POV—
"U-Uryuu?! Now? HERE? I mean--" That's what I shouted, likie an idiot. After several moments of blushing and squirming, I realized he hadn't MEANT to fall into my lap. 'Oh...Ah haha...Gawd! I really AM an idiot when it comes to medical stuff...Couldn't even tell he'd...passed out...'
Reluctantly, I hoisted him off of me, and laid him back down on the bed. I looked at his wrists. Our struggle had reopened his wounds, and he had begun bleeding again. It was strange...I had never been squeamish at the sight of blood. Before now.
--
I hadn't bothered to go back to school. It wouldn't have mattered anyway. I would've been too distracted with the thought of Uryuu passing out to pay attention.
"Ichigo! Move!" Karin yelled, as she and Uzu whizzed by with a new patient on a stretcher.
"Dad! We need the extra bed, so can you move Ishida-kun, please?" Uzu quietly asked her spazstic father.
"Don't worry. I got it." I said, as I headed to where Uryuu was sleeping.
--
"Ichigo-kun?" Uryuu sat up, still half-asleep.
"Yeah. Hey." I tried to walk in calmly and cool.
"What's going on?"
"They have another patient coming in, so we have to move you..."
"Really? All right." As Uryuu tried to sit up, I pushed him back down on the bed.
"Let me remove your IV at least..." I beamed at him, the first person to make me smile since my mother's death.
"Oh...Right."
--It's so fun to make him blush.--
I removed the IV, and once again picked him up bridal-style.
"Wh-Whoa! What are you?!"
"Sh. Don't worry. I won't drop you..."
--It's so easy to make him blush too.--
"Ichigo-kun! Put me down!!" He glared at me, punching at the air.
"Sorry, but Doctor's Orders!" I laughed, carrying him out the door.
"Ichigo!!"

3rd person's POV
"Huh? A haunted house?" Uryuu asked, pushing his glasses up his nose.
"Yeah. All the guys at school are talking about it." Ichigo nodded his head.
They were in Ichigo's room, currently the only room with a bed that wasn't being used. After Ichigo had set him down and brought him dinner, the boy had quieted.
"Well...I've never really been into that kind of stuff, you know? Because I can see the real thing, it kinda takes away from the experience."
"Oh, yeah. Me too."
"It's not quite as exciting..."
"Right, right..."
"So..."
"So..."
"Um..."
"You wanna go?" Ichigo managed to blurt out.
"Yeah! Of course!" The Quincy laughed. "Wait...Would that make this...a...date?!"
"Wh-What?" For once, Ichigo was the one to blush. "I-I think...so? If you want...to?"
Uryuu grinned up at the other boy.
"I'd...Like that. -Very much."
'SCORE!! DATE WITH URYUU!! HEX YEA!!' Ichigo made a quick 'V' for 'victory' sign with his fingers.
--
"Aaaaaaaaaah!!" Blood-curdling screams were heard throughout the small, pitch-black room. People grasped for each other, for fear of being lost, instead scaring their friends. In the midst of the 'controlled chaos' stood two figures, enjoying the still darkness.
"Want to sit down?" Ichigo asked, pointing to two 'severed heads' lying on the ground.
"...Sure..." Answered his companion, bored out of his mind.
"Great. This's lame anyways." Ichigo guided him over to where the heads lay, amidst several zombie's body parts. Dodging several people running around like chickens with their heads cut off, they sat down.
"I told you!" Uryuu said, as Ichigo removed his glasses. "Hey! What're you doing?! You know I can't see without my glasses!"
"Sh...Quiet!"
"Hmph."
"Hey. We're in the dark! What could there possibly be for you to see?" Ichigo said, wrapping his arms around the disgruntled boy.
"Ichigo! What if someone sees us?!" Uryuu asked, flustered.
"Let them." Ichigo shook his head, replying with a smirk.
"W-what?!" Uryuu muttered in disbelief.
"Well, even if someone wasn't distracted by the 'ghosts,' I'm pretty sure they'd have to be part cat to see us in this darkness..." Ichigo came closer, reaching out for the other boy's hand.
"Alright, but just this once!" Uryuu told him, giving him a disappointed, yet reassuring nod. Uryuu bit his lip, before reaching out to kiss him. Pressing his lips up against Ichigo's, he gave up on fighting the other boy. Just as he was about to search for more, and dig deeper into the kiss, a strobe light went off right in front of them. Ichigo jumped away, startled.
"Ah! Ichigo! My glasses!" Uryuu scrambled for the other boy's arm. Ichigo ran up, and pulled him into the shadows. To everyone watching, they just looked like two disappearing specters. But to their five friends, it was much clearer than that. Ichigo grabbed Uryuu, pulling him close in the cramped space.
"Ichigo...My...glasses..." Uryuu panted, startled by all the excitement.
Ichigo reached up and placed the glasses on the small, slender nose of the jumpy boy that had his face inches from his own.
"Here."
"Thank you." Uryuu said, adjusting them. "So...do you think anyone saw us?" Uryuu wondered aloud, his face resembling the color of a lobster.
"I don't know." Ichigo said truthfully. "Guess we'll find out tomorrow."
"T-tomorrow?"
"Yeah...I told you a bunch of people from school were planning on coming..."
"Ichigo..." Uryuu looked at him, giving him a funny look.
"Y-yes?" Said person's face flushed a little, still not used to Uryuu dropping the 'kun' at the end of his name.
"Today's Saturday. We don't have school tomorrow."
"Huh? Oh...Right." Bowing his head in shame, he didn't notice the small smile delivered by Uryuu.
"Want to come back tomorrow?"
"Is that...such a good idea?" Ichigo turned to look at the quincy, clearly visible in the darkness. His fair white skin shone in the moonlight that seeped through the thin tent roof of the haunted house. His hair appeared blue, and his eyes shone bright and large. He had removed his glasses, and inched closer to him. Suddenly the place they were hiding in didn't seem like a haunted house, but a safe haven for which the two of them could be together, alone in the darkness. The seconds seemed short, as a buzzer ringed signaling the end of the 'ride.'
"Dammit." The two said in unison.
"To answer your earlier question," Uryuu said, squeezing out from behind where they had hid. Grabbing Ichigo's hand to help the other boy out, he continued. "It's too dark for anyone to see us, unless they were part cat..." Ichigo smiled as Uryuu quoted his earlier statement.
"Sure."

"Was that...Ichigo-kun...?" Tatsuki asked the question they were all wondering.
"I...Think so. But was he...?" Sanzo replied, still somewhat in shock.
"Kissing someone?" Rukia answered, with a sneaking suspicion of who it was he kissed.
"Yeah...But...I thought...You and...Ichigo-kun were...together?" Tatsuki said to the dark-haired girl.
"Of COURSE not!" Rukia shouted, blushing crimson.
"Orihime-chan? Are you all right?" Sanzo stepped over to where the orange-haired girl stood silently.
"Ichigo-kun..."
