No long foreword. Let's go;)
Okay, just one. Sorry for the long upload;)
" Tatsuki! You are late", her mother greeted her as she entered the living room.
" Oh my, what happened to you? Did you get into a fight again? I thought you had passed that stage?" Tatsuki's father shouted and got up from the sofa he had sat on, watching some sport show on TV.
Tatsuki sighed:" Well, it wasn't our fight. We just helped a friend of ours whose brother is a cop, who had some business with some gangsters from Tokyo."
Her parents looked at her worriedly. " Tatsuki, dear, please stay out of trouble. You are not a high school student anymore and Tokyo is different from Karakura."
" Please, mom. I know what I am doing and just as I told you, I helped a friend. Nothing more. Besides the police took care of it."
The Arisawa's still didn't look very pleased with their daughter's answer. But as soon as her mother's gaze fell on Ichigo,who has stood the whole time behind Tatsuki, her facial expression changed.
" Ichigo. You really came over. I was so happy when you called yesterday. A young busy, student at university these days shouldn't bother himself with nasty things like cooking and all. I am so glad you accepted our offer. After all you are Tatsuki's best friend."
She smiled and went over to him:"Oh boy, you still look a little too slim. I see, it really is a good idea to have you over for dinner. Just wait a second, I'll reheat it, my dear." With that being said, she walked to the kitchen in order to prepare dinner for Tatsuki and Ichigo.
Best friends. Since the day Ichigo joined the dojo she went to, they were pals. There never was anyone else. Through middle school and high school. But why does always when she thinks about the past, this image of this pretty young girl with such beautiful long orange hair appear inside her mind? It is not very clear, yet she knows her from somewhere. Had she met her once before? Why does she constantly pop up before her eyes?
She really didn't know who that person could be. Tatsuki shook her head trying to wipe away these irritating thoughts and sat down, waiting for her mother to show up with dinner. Ichigo followed her and lowered himself on the chair opposite of hers.
His thoughts were stuck with G-D and his mysterious friends. Something seemed off back there. Without any doubt their saviors had been magnificent fighters, but their aura was...dangerous. And that look in their eyes. Ichigo knew that look. It was the look of people who had definitely killed more than just once. Were they cops as well? It didn't look like it though.
He just hoped they were no threat to him or his friends. G-D and Utau on the other hand didn't give Ichigo such uneasy feelings. But this Asano guy..
If Ichigo were to name one thing about himself which he was proud of, than it would be his instinct. And this instinct told him to stay alert. Alert of these guys with their deathly presence and sharp eyes. He could recall it instantly. That image of those three standing there, the girl leaning on the wall, and all looking at him and his friends as Utau took them home.
Before he could try to analyze their stares more, Tatsuki's mother came in with a hot steaming pot in her gloved hands.
" Yosh! Time to eat!", Tatsuki exclaimed happily. Ichigo just smiled. He was happy not to eat alone again.
Next Day
When Ichigo opened his eyes, he looked into the smiling face of Tatsuki's dad.
" Arghhh! Holy sh**! What are you doing in my bedroom?",the younger screamed and (luckily) in a nick of time managed to stop himself from hitting the older man.
" Hoho! Well, that's a healthy reaction. Good morning, Ichigo. I must disappoint you though,'cause right now you are in my living room, sleeping on my couch."
" What? Oh...", Ichigo realized, " I apologize, sir."
" Not at all. I shouldn't have startled you so much. Just thought, that maybe you would like to have some time for breakfast before you and Tatsuki head out."
" Thank you very much."
Mr. Arisawa lifted himself up and walked around the sofa, Ichigo had slept on, toward the kitchen. Just before entering, he stopped in the doorway.
" Oh, Ichigo...My wife and me, we were very worried about you. So I am glad that you are doing well now. Still if there is anything bothering you, do not hesitate to come to us, okay?"
" Yes. I will. Thank you Mr. Arisawa.".
The man nodded and left for the kitchen. Ichigo exhaled loudly and let himself sink into his pillows again. He remembered: yesterday after dinner, he stayed at Tatsuki's and they did some of their assignments together. It had gotten quite late, so Tatsuki's mother proposed to him to stay the night. Since he felt so tired he gladly accepted it and even took a bath before going to bed.
A few minutes later after her husband had woken him up , Tatsuki's mother walked in to give him some fresh clothes and remind him about breakfast.
When Tatsuki arrived downstairs, he had already begun eating, yet somehow they managed to finish at the same time.
It took them some strength to cut themselves loose from Mrs. Arisawa, who had tried countless times to make them take more food, drink, books etc with them. Now, Ichigo could understand why Tatsuki always arrived later than the rest.
Anyways after many attempts from her mother, Tatsuki agreed to take the sixth apple, the fifth bread and the fifth bottle of green tea with her. Ichigo had to accept twice as much.
Eventually, both made it out of the house and hurried toward the train station.
Ten minutes later, Ichigo found himself and Tatsuki leaning coughing against the inside of their train to Todai.
"What happened to you two?", Keigo asked. He eyed his friends suspiciously, probably trying to come up with an idea, why they would be together in the morning, looking flustered...
" OH NO! You ! Don't tell me you are...are...are..."
" Are what? Keigo, I am warning you. Don't say anything that you might regret later!" Tatsuki shot dirty glares at the young adult.
"Hehehe...It's nothing. You just looked like normal two friends who happened to be late at the same time, was what I wanted to say."
Ichigo sighed. At least Tatsuki was back to her old self. Yesterday before dinner, she seemed somehow distracted. He was wondering whether she still had trouble digesting the incident from yesterday night with G-D, but she seemed to take it all very well.
Squeezing themselves out of the now crowded wagon, they made their way toward University of Tokyo. As soon as they could see the Akamon, they could hear someone shouting.
" Goood Mooorning, my friends!"
Ichigo didn't need to turn around to find out who had called.
An utterly over-joyed G-Dragon slumped his arms around Tatsuki's and Mizuiro's neck, grinning like an idiot.
"Whoa. What do you think you are doing?!", Tatsuki asked and hit him in his face, causing G-D to fall backwards.
" Keep calm, Arisawa. You might break his neck if you hit him again", Mizuiro advised her, before greeting the, again on the ground laying, G-D. Tatsuki just snapped, but listened to him and prevented herself from punching G-D again.
Sulking, G-D lifted himself from the ground:" That hurt! And you call yourself a friendly person?! My a**! And here I wanted to ask you all if you are alright."
" It's fine, G-D. No need to worry. " Ichigo assured him and Keigo asked:" What is going to happen with those gangsters?"
" Nothing spectacular. They are just some small fishes. As far as I heard from my brother, for now they are going to have to appear in front of court and they might get a few years."
" Yeah, serves them right! Threatening us with weapons. Such lousy bastards!" Keigo exclaimed and they continued their walk, discussing what punishment they would prefer. The rest of the week went by quickly. They had really found a new friend in G-D and hung out all the time together during break. Everything was normal and peaceful again, no harmful disruptions anymore.
Ichigo spent a nice weekend at the Arisawa's and even Keigo and Mizuiro dropped by for a video and game night. Their first week at university had enden successfully. Finally their second week at Todai next monday, as usual, they met at Karakura station and took the train to Tokyo. Then they were joined by G-D and continued their walk together with many other students rushing into the same direction. But today, something different was about to happen...
Upon entering the main building, something felt odd. Ichigo could discover many first year students gathering around the black board hanging in the entrance hall.
" What is going on there?" Tatsuki asked her friends, standing behind her.
" Don't know. Let's check it out, G-D."
" Oi. Mizuiro,G-D. Wait for me!"
"Keigo. Stop yelling and walk like a normal person."
Ichigo shook his head on his friends behaviors and smiled. No matter what happened to them, they still managed to keep their composure and be themselves.
Just as Ichigo wanted to enter his first class, a hand grabbed him suddenly his arm and spun him around.
" And where do you think you are going?"
" To my class, perhaps?" Ichigo answered Tatsuki, looking at her, trying to find out what it was she wanted.
" Man, Ichigo! What are you? A toddler?" his friend asked him in an annoyed voice.
She took him by his arm and dragged him away.
" Hey, Tatsuki! Where are you taking me. I have got class!"
" No, you don't! You have an information meeting, just like everyone else who is a first year at this university."
" Oh...was that what it was about this morning ?"
" Yes. That is also why you should read what is written on the board or at least wait for us ,you idiot!"
" Alright, alright. I get it. You can let go of me now."
" G-D and the others are already there. I just hope that there are seats left for us."
She opened the door leading to the big room where the entrance ceremony had been held and pushed Ichigo in.
As he entered, all the other students in his year were already on their seats chatting with one another.
He had a hard time finding the others, but luckily Tatsuki could find them with ease. They were joined by Chizuru, Ryo, Kenichiro, Jinpei and Mahana.
" What is this meeting about anyway?", Keigo asked with his whimpering voice. " Couldn't they have done it on our first day?"
"Why are you complaining? I thought you would be happy to be able to cut class?" Mizuiro mocked him.
"Yeah, that's true but still...it seems to unnecessary."
" Maybe you are right. Although I think they are going to tell us about club activities, festivals and all that. On the entrance ceremony the just welcomed us and talked about academic stuff. What do you say, Chizuru?" Tatsuki looked at her friend from high school.
" Oh I hope they have some sexy cheerleaders or dancers, here at this university. I heard that Todai is famous for their many sport related circles." Chizuru stated while licking her lips on the thought of sexy girls running around in tight sport gear.
" And where did you hear that from, you perverted freak?!" Tatsuki shouted at her angrily.
" Oh. Tatsuki. If you keep yelling like that, I can't help myself, but to find you attractive as well, my darling~" Chizuru put her arms around the girls chest , which proved itself to be a mistake considering that Tatsuki hadn't done karate for nothing.
While those two were busy fighting against each other, G-D had planted himself on one of their row's desk and started to chat to Ichigo, Jinpei and Keigo.
" I know what definitely is going to happen today." He smiled at them knowingly.
" What?"
" Well, as far as I have heard, we are going to.."
" Okay, everyone. May I have your attention please. Would everyone sit down on their seats, please? We would like to start." a female voice declared. It was one of the executive vice-presidents, who had attended one of Ichigo's information tours a week ago.
She stood at the front of the hall and held a microphone in her hand and a fierce facial expression. You could clearly see that she hated this kind of job. " Alright, let us begin. Welcome everyoen..."
After that, the most boring speech, Ichigo had ever heard, had begun. Not even five minutes later he stopped listening to her completely and the rest of the freshmen joined him with that. He started drifting off into his own thoughts, scribbling on his papers, until he heard G-D whispering to Keigo :" Now its going to finally become interesting."
" Why?", Keigo asked him curiously.
" And now, I would like to inform you about our new program, this year. We introduced for the first time in our universities history tutors for our freshmen. They will look after you and advise you with your living situation or academic decision. Furthermore..."After those words had reached the student's brains, a murmur went through the room.
" We are having tutors?!" Tatsuki whispered to Chizuru. " Oh how I hope that they are cute girls." the latter squealed.
Suddenly the backdoor was opened and almost everyone turned around immediately." Oh it seems they are finally here. Please come in." the woman at the front spoke into her mic.
Ichigo could hear someone walking down the way towards the desk where the executive vice-president was and his fellow students gasping:
"Wow!"
"Cute!"
"Hot!"
"Holy s***"
"Lucky us!"
Both boys and girls turned within two seconds into a group of fangirls. What the...? Now Ichigo was curious as well, but as soon as he looked up from his drawings and turned around, the tutors had already passed his row. He was only able to steal a glance at their backs. One of them was a girl and the other a boy. The girl had middle long black hair which she wore in a side ponytail. The guy had black hair as well and wore a dark jacket with fitting tight trousers.
" Yes. Thank you for coming today. Please introduce yourself." She gave both a mic and nodded at them. " Of course" the girl said and turned around.
" Hello. Nice to meet you. I will be your tutor from this year on. My name is Kuchiki Hisana."
Du-Du-Du-Dum. Mrs. Kuchiki has arrived.
Have fun, Ichigo!
