Warning:This chapter contains sex, you have been warned.
A smile played on Ichigo's lips when he heard Rukia's thanks. After all that she had told him on the park bench Ichigo felt as if this was a big step for them both. At last he had been able to be a part of Rukia's life as she had been a part of his ever since the first day they met each other.
It had taken all of Rukia's strenght to talk about everything that had happened to her. Ichigo had seen it on her, how all her energy just seemed to disappear from her as if someone sucked it out of her. That's why Ichigo decided to take her home to him since he knew that his sisters and faher would not interfere or ask any questions if they could see how Rukia felt. He had been right, the only thing his father did was to nod and give Ichigo a pat on the shoulder which meant that he would be there if he was needed.
Isshin, his father, was Karakura Town's only doctor and if anything happened it was Isshin you called. He had a clinic right next to their house, which meant that Ichigo and his sisters would sometimes have to share room because his father had to make room for patients who were seriously injured and not had get any place in the emergency room that lay next to the house.
Ichigo did not know how many lives his father had saved during the years he had worked as a doctor, but one thing he knew: If one was injured and was in the emergency care of medical assistance, you could count on his father, Kurosaki Isshin. He saved everyone; it did not matter if you were a plain old citizen, or a murderer. If someone was injured, he helped them, period.
Ichigo lay closer to Rukia and cuddled her hair. She smelled so wonderful and he knew he would recognize her scent anywhere. Her skin against his was the most glorious feeling he had ever felt. She was so soft, like a child's soft skin. He could be this close to her for all eternity.
This was the meaning of his life. To hold the woman he loved and spend the rest of the time he had left in this life with her. He knew he would never leave her, never let her down in any way. Ichigo loved Rukia above all else, and he could sacrifice anything for her, even his own life.
"Rukia, I love you."
Ichigo could not see Rukia's face, but he could feel on her body language that she finally relaxed in the same moment he pronounced those three little words that means so much. He could also feel that his and Rukia's hands intertwined. Rukia had taken his hand in hers and it made Ichigo feel as if they were no longer two individuals, but that they had been concatenated into one.
Rukia's lips brushed his knuckles and it made him shudder. Not out of discomfort, but the feeling that Rukia's lips against his skin gave. Her lips were like a red rose, so beautiful to look at and yet so soft to touch.
"And I love you, Ichigo..." Rukia whispered back and turned her face to him. A smile could be seen in her face and it got Ichigo's heart to beat faster.
It was something with Rukia's eyes that he had never seen before... In there was a passion that he had not seen at any time during the many times they had been together. He did not know what it meant, but he also knew that he would soon find out.
Rukia put her hand against Ichigo's cheek and stroked it tenderly with her fingertips. A smile was visible on her face and her whole body bubbling with a joy that Ichigo had not seen in Rukia in a long time. He really could not think of a singletimehe had seen Rukia this happy.
Sure Rukia had been happy most of the times they had seen and talked to each other, but it had never been real joy. He had asked her many times about what was bothering her and what was making that she never could show the same happiness as he did when he had a really good day.
Many of his buddies had sometimes asked why Ichigo could be so happy when he had a mother who was no longer among the living. They always got the same answer:"My mom does not want to see me sad.She wants me to continue living my life as I would have lived it if she was still alive.It's no harder than that."
But as said, at this very moment Rukia seemed to be the happiest woman in the world. She sparkled, whole her.
"Rukia, you... shine! How is that?" Ichigo thought the question sounded silly, but he had to ask.
"Because I finally have found something in my life that is worth living for, Ichigo. Ever since the day that Kaien died, every day seemed meaningless. I could not find a single reason why I should continue to live on when I know that many people still hate me for what I did. Then came the day I met you, and my life started to make sense again. I knew it was my destiny to help you, Ichigo. I could feel that you really screamed for help when I first saw you and I knew that it was I that was the help you had been looking for. Now, when I know you love me and want to be with me even though I am five years older than you, my life is complete.
I have gotten a new role in my life. It is to spend the rest of my life with you and ensure that you remain as happy as you are right now, Ichigo. I love you so much that I can not explain it."
Silence. Ichigo did not say a word in such a long time that Rukia was getting worried that she had said something that would make Ichigo feel uncomfortable. Just as she was about to sit up, Ichigo took a firm grip on her cheeks and pressed his lips against her in such an emotional kiss that Rukia felt that she was going to pass out from all the emotions that swirled around her.
She could feel joy, love and a passion that she never had seen in Ichigo before. The way he kissed her Rukia knew that he wanted her as he never had wanted another woman before. He probably hadn't want anyone before her, but it did not matter because Rukia wanted Ichigo just as much.
"Ichigo..." Rukia whispered his name between one of their kisses, and it made Ichigo let go of her warm lips.
"Rukia, I want you. I'm not kidding, I want, no, I needyou. I've been holding these feelings inside for so long that now that I know they are answered, I have a hard time to keep them bridled."
Rukia had to laugh when she heard Ichigo's unusual statement. This was her first time that she at all heard him talk about sex of any kind. The only thing he had said about it was that he never had had a girlfriend before. Rukia could see that Ichigo was a little nervous about what they both knew would come.
Rukia, however, was not a bit nervous. She had had a sexual relationship before a few years ago, when she was sixteen. She had been in a sexual relationship with one of the other agents, Abarai Renji, for one year. As far as she knew Renji still had more than friendly feelings for her, but they had been separating as friends.
After what had happened to Kaien, Rukia got into such a deep depression that it had ended with that she had not as much as seen or touched Renji. She simply could not give him the love he wanted from her anymore. She had been too depressed to think about other things than all the pain she caused all the people who had looked up to Kaien.
Many had believed that she and Kaien had had a relationship even though both he and Rukia had their own partners, which in itself was not surprising, given all the time they spent together. They had never had a sexual relationship, it had only been an ordinary friendship. Kaien had taught her everything she now knew. He had taught her how to fight, how to survive, what honour is and how to maintain it.
She had never heard Renji talking to someone else that he had suspicions that she and Kaien would have gone behind his or Kaien's wives back. She had never seen any sign in Renji's face that told her he did not like that she spent time with Kaien. Renji knew Kaien was not the person who was unfaithful and so were she. He had seen in her eyes that she had never lied on any occasion he had asked her how she felt about Kaien.
The only thing she had ever felt towards Kaien was a deep friendship that she knew she would not experience again. She had never been in love with him but loved him as the friend he had been.
But with Ichigo... he was all that Renji wasn't. Sure, Renji had cared about her, but he'd rather be with other agents at a party than to spend a Friday or Saturday night with her. And Rukia knew that if he got the opportunity, Renji would rather have died while fighting a Hollow, instead of in her arms. Renji was the kind of person who loved to see death in the eyes and then laugh for getting away once again.
Ichigo would do anything to save her if he knew she was in danger and he would spend all the free time he could spare just to be with her. Ichigo loved her with all his heart and there was no room for anyone else but her. That was what the biggest difference between him and Renji was.
With Renji Rukia had never really felt whole, it was as if something was missing between them and it was now afterwards that Rukia realized that it was just the lack of knowing that Renji would always have a place for her in his heart. Sure, he had said that he loved her, but it was nothing more to it. There was no strength in his voice when he said it, instead it had sounded as if there was nothing special about those three words.
In Ichigo's voice Rukia could hear how much he cared for her, that he would do anything to make her happy when she was discouraged. He would always be there for her when she called for him and he would never abandon her unless she told him to do so.
"Ichigo, I want you too. You are my second boyfriend, but you are so unlike him in so many ways. I feel I can really trust you; you are not going to do something I do not want to or hurt me. I rely entirely on you." Rukia smiled at Ichigo and gave his lips a teasing kiss, which she knew would lead to that Ichigo would have to pay back.
And sure enough. She had barely had time to leave his lips before he laid himself on top of her. He put his hands around her wrists and held her down using his own body weight. A playful smile could be seen in his face and it got Rukia's genitals to tingle in delight. She had no idea what Ichigo had in store for her, but she did not really care about it either. As long as he gave her pleasure and made her feel like an attractive woman, she would be more then pleased.
Ichigo's smile quickly disappeared and was replaced by a serious face. In his eyes, Rukia could see how much he desired her and wanted her, and she was almost surprised by what she saw. She had never seen that kind of desire in Renji, and he had not been the person who cared very much about satisfying his partner to orgasm. As long as he got what he wanted, everything was good.
Rukia decided that from now on she would not let her bad memories of her relationship with Renji destroy the wonderful moment that she knew lay in front of her and Ichigo. She would only let her desire control her movements and do everything she could to get Ichigo to feel absolute pleasure.
"Oh, someone seems to be really naughty", Rukia said with a laugh and smiled towards Ichigo.
Instead of responding with words Ichigo let his tongue do the answer. He let it sweep over Rukia's neck and made little circles that made her shiver with delight. Shudders was running from her neck down to her toes and she loved that feeling.
Soon, Ichigo was content not to just lick Rukia's neck, but he also began to suck and bite it, which Rukia appreciated highly. Small bursts of air escaped her for each new bite that Ichigo gave her neck, but she did not start groaning just yet, she wanted Ichigo to work for the trouble.
When Ichigo thought that Rukia was sufficiently warmed up, he had his lips slowly walk along Rukia's neck and down to her collarbone. Lucky for him, Rukia wore a low cut black top that made that he could easily see everything from her neck down to where her breasts began. He had in other words, very much smooth skin to choose from which he could explore as he pleased.
First Ichigo started to give Rukia's collarbone little kisses that made Rukia shudder. She loved the feeling that Ichigo's lips against her skin gave. It was like being caressed by an angel's touch. Soon she could feel how Ichigo's lips wandered down along her collarbone and stopped above her chest where his tongue began to caress the bulge that could be seen before her top hid her body.
Ichigo could not get enough of Rukia's soft and warm skin against his tongue. She was so wonderful whole her, and he could not wait to get to feel himself inside her. He suspected that she would feel absolutely fantastic.
Slowly he let his hands slip into Rukia's top. He began to rub her belly with small circular movements while he continued to lick and kiss Rukia's skin. He could feel shudder after shudder went through Rukia for every new stroke. She really liked what he did to her, which he was very happy for. She was, after all, his first, and he wanted his first time to be as good for him as the woman who lay under him.
He let his hands explore more of Rukia's smooth belly and soon he felt fabric from Rukia's bra brush against his fingers. Before he thought what he did he put his hands behind Rukia's back and undid her bra strap. He could hear an approving murmur from Rukia and it made him realize that he had made the right choice. As quickly as he loosened her bra strap, he pulled off her bra and threw it down on the floor beside the bed.
While he threw down her bra on the floor Rukia took off the top she had worn, and smiled when she saw Ichigo's surprising face staring down at her. She was now without anything to cover up her breasts, and the sight that greeted Ichigo's eyes could not be interpreted as anything other than approval as soon as the initial shock had subsided.
"Rukia, you're so beautiful..." Ichigo whispered and gave Rukia a smile that made Rukia filled with a warmness she had not felt for a long time.
To hear Ichigo say those words with such warmth... She had not received a single compliment from a man in so long that she almost had forgot how happy you can get to hear that someone likes your appearance.
"Thank you, Ichigo." Rukia smiled back and helped Ichigo to take off his shirt so she could see what he looked like under all those clothes that prevented her from getting to feel Ichigo's skin against her own.
The first Rukia noticed was all the scars that adorned Ichigo's shoulders and chest. She knew that many of those were from all the times he had saved her in a tight spot against a Hollow. "I have caused you a lot of scars, Ichigo. This was when you saved me from that Hollow who was about to crush me. This was when you helped me with a Hollow that had the ability to change shape."
Rukia stroked a long scar that ran from Ichigos right collarbone down to his right breast. It was a nasty scar; it was still a bit light red, as if it was just about to heal although there were over a year ago Ichigo had got it. All other scars that covered Ichigo's body were barely visible unless you knew where to look.
"They have all been worth it, Rukia. I could do anything for you, you know that. This", Ichigo let his hand sweep over his body, "is just one of many evidences of how I feel about you." Ichigo gave Rukia a tender kiss on the mouth before he stroked her cheek and gave her a smile.
Rukia felt the tears trying to force their way out of her eyes but she shook her head in a vain attempt to get them to go away. She had never before met anyone like Ichigo. Everything about him was as pure as the whitest winter's day. All he wanted was to protect those in danger and he killed only if he absolutely needed to.
"Rukia, it's okay. Let it come out, I will not stop you." Ichigo looked Rukia deep into her eyes as he continued to stroke her cheek.
Rukia smiled and let the tears come. She sobbed and managed to get out, "Thanks, Ichigo, I have longed to hear a man say those words to me", before the tears came with such speed that she had to laugh at herself.
Just think, here she was sitting - half naked - along with the man she loved and had decided to give herself to, and cried as the worst child! It was just too funny.
"Sorry, I did not mean to..." Rukia shook her head and smiled up at Ichigo. It felt good to finally be able to laugh and cry along with a man that it overpowered Rukia and caused her to act this way. Ichigo must have thought she was crazy, so strange that she behaved!
To her surprise, she heard Ichigo laugh beside her. Soon she had his strong arms around her in a warm embrace. He pressed his lips against her hair and rubbed her back slowly. "You have nothing to apologize for, Rukia. I can understand that there are many emotions flowing through your body right now, as it does with me, too. Happiness mixed with a pleasure I never have felt before, while I just want to laugh right out or cry as you do right now. Luck can manifest itself in various ways."
Rukia had to laugh again when Ichigo was done. He was right, and she was glad that she was not the only one who felt that way. She gave Ichigo such a strong and unprepared kiss that he fell backwards. Now it was she who was on top, and it was something that she liked. A lot.
She gave Ichigo a small teasing smile before she bent over him and put her lips next to his cheek. "Now I'll take you on a journey you will never forget, Ichigo", Rukia whispered in his ear before she began to rub his bare chest with her hands and nipping him in the neck, as he had done to her before.
Ichigo let out a surprised moan when he felt Rukia's teeth against his bare skin. Chills was coursing through him, and he now knew how it had felt to Rukia when he had given her the same treatment. He loved the feeling that Rukia gave him and relaxed in the knowledge that Rukia knew what she was doing.
As her hands stroked Ichigo's bare skin it was as if she was not meant to do anything else. It felt so right what she did, and that feeling surprised her. At the same time she knew she had all her life been waiting on this particular day when she would finally become one with the person who was characteristically for her. When the day was now here, she wanted to enjoy as much as she could from it.
While Ichigo was busy enjoying her touch Rukia took the opportunity to with one hand wander down Ichigo's body. First, she walked over his muscles that covered his entire torso, and then wandered down to his stomach where she let her fingers slowly stroke his warm skin. Then, without warning, she undid the button that prevented her from accessing Ichigo's most sacred part of his body.
Rukia quickly pulled down Ichigo's pants and underpants. She both saw and felt how Ichigo shivered when the cold air struck his hot and hard gender that now was straight up and was just waiting to feel her hot gender pressed against it. But she would not give Ichigo what he wanted directly. He would have to get "punished" a bit first.
"Mm, Ichigo. What have we here? I can see that someone is really aroused." Rukia smiled wickedly before she bent over Ichigo's hard cock and started licking it slowly while she kept eye contact with Ichigo all the time.
"Ah, Rukia..." Ichigo gave out a low moan when he felt her tongue taste his gender. Never before had he felt anything like this.
"Oh, it's not over yet, not by a long shot. I have only just begun..." Rukia went on to lick Ichigo's hard cock while she stroked his balls gently so as not to hurt him, as she knew how sensitive they were.
Ichigo had to bite his lip hard not to groan aloud with delight. He did not want his father or siblings to come in and see him and Rukia in the middle of their act. It was difficult however; Rukia was so incredibly talented with her tongue. She knew exactly where his most sensitive parts sat and stroked them extra much.
Soon a new sense came to him. He could feel his whole gender swallow up by something hot and when he looked down he saw that Rukia had "devoured" his cock and was now busy sucking his entire limb. If he believed that he had felt absolute pleasure, he was completely wrong. This was even better, and now he put his hands over his mouth so as not to emit more noise than was necessary so no one in his family would suspect anything.
Rukia smiled to herself when she saw Ichigo's reaction to her treatment of him. She knew that Ichigo liked what she did, but that he didn't dare to give out any sound in fear of his family coming in the middle of everything. She could see Ichigo's father's face in front of her what it would look like if he would catch them with their pants down. The sight made her giggle quietly as she lay bent down, sucking Ichigo's limb.
It was not long before a hand laid on her head and it caused her to stop with what she did. When she looked up she could see how Ichigo shook his head and that he had bitten himself in the lip so hard that some blood trickled out. She understood that he didn't want her to continue, and that he had almost come.
Rukia smiled and leaned forward until she arrived at Ichigo's lips. She licked up the little bloodstain and let a small moan escape her lips when she at the same moment felt Ichigo take a firm grip on her breasts and began to stroke them. Of his movements Rukia understood that Ichigo could no longer keep his hands still, but that he now, after her treatment, must give back the pleasure she had given him.
She did not have anything against it either.
Ichigo's one hand explored her breasts and nipples while the other was busy getting of her pants. As soon as the button came off it was as if Ichigo could not explore her whole body fast enough. Her underwear went off with such speed that Rukia was near to give up a little cry when the cold air struck her bare skin. The feeling was carried out once the heat from Ichigo's fingers found its way in between her legs into her inner sanctum. A deep moan escaped Rukia before she could stop herself.
Ichigo's fingers began to move in and out of her pussy and the feeling got Rukia to be filled with warmth and pleasure that she had never felt before. She'd never have guessed that someone would give her the pleasure that she was given. She had to firmly bite her lips to keep from crying out loud.
"Ichigo... Oh, God!" She managed to get out between one of all the wonderful waves Ichigo's fingers gave her.
Ichigo just grinned and continued while he let his tongue explore Rukia's nipples. With his free hand he explored the rest of Rukia's body, from her legs up to her chin. She was so soft and he could not get enough to feel her skin against his hand. She was so beautiful that he could not stop watching her. And those sounds that she made... It meant that he literally went wild. He just wanted to take her now, hard and merciless. He was so horny that he could not keep his excitement in check much longer.
As if Rukia had read his thoughts, she looked up at him and whispered, "Take me, Ichigo... I need you and that now..."
No more than that was needed. Ichigo pulled out his fingers from Rukia's womb before he straddled her. He got ready and with a sharp blow, he pressed himself in between that tight and hot spot as he had so long fantasized about getting to feel and explore with his own gender. When that moment finally had turned up Ichigo had a hard time to take it easy. He knew it was a long time since Rukia last had a sexual intercourse, and he did not want to hurt her, the first thing he did.
With a great effort Ichigo managed to move slowly back and forth inside Rukia so that he could get a feel of Rukia. He did not know how fragile she was, or how much she could possibly endure.
Rukia, however, had other plans. She put her legs around Ichigo's hips and began pressing her gender against his hard. "Ichigo, take me... I will not break, I promise. I want you so much, so do not let me down..."
Their lips met in a fierce kiss and Ichigo started to push harder and faster into Rukia, who followed as best she could in Ichigo's movements. Their moans were mixed with their kissing and soon they did not know who of them who it was that made which moan. It felt as if they had been two lost souls who had finally found each other and which are now united and becomes one after a very long wait.
The desire grew with each new push. Rukia felt like a thousand hot needles stuck between her legs and warmed her up inside. The heat just grew and grew until Rukia no longer could stand it.
"Ichigo!"
She screamed out his name as soon as she came with such force that her whole body shook with all the pleasure that surged through her, before she with a satisfied sigh, leaned her head down against the pillow. She smiled up at Ichigo while she continued to move with him. She would not let him get away that easy, and she could see on him that he also had close to his orgasm.
"Come on, Ichigo... I know you can do it... Come for little Rukia now..." Rukia gave Ichigo a teasing smile as she licked her lips. "I can not wait to feel your hot cum filling me, Ichigo..."
Rukia's word got Ichigo to find the last strength that was needed for him to be able to reach his climax. He grabbed Rukia's hips and pushed her up against the bed with such force that Rukia was forced to hold up her hands against the wall so she would not hit the wall for each time that Ichigo pressed himself in her.
She moaned loudly as she felt how Ichigo's whole cock filled all her and reached up into her innermost crannies. The feeling was overwhelming and she could not conceal her pleasure, but let it come out in high groans that would have been able to wake up anyone. Ichigo was not slow to imitate her, and Rukia set out to make her tighter because they would have to complete their sex act as quickly as possible.
"Oh, Rukia... You're so tight, so nice... I can not hold it anymore…" Ichigo looked Rukia deeply into the eyes before he with a final moan pushed his cock as deeply into her as he could before he came.
Ichigo's warm cum filled Rukia and she gasped as she felt how hot her pussy got. Their lovemaking was now over, and Rukia could not had ask for anything better. To be Ichigo's first time he had been absolutely gorgeous. More wonderful than she ever could have imagined.
With a gasp Ichigo drew himself out from Rukia and lay down beside her on the bed. He had a big smile on his face and pulled Rukia to him before he gave her a tired kiss on the lips. "That was... awesome."
Rukia giggled as she lay with Ichigo's arms around her. She felt perfect, now that she had finally got to complete her relationship with Ichigo. She did not know what would happen between them in the future, but it was something she had to deal with then.
What Rukia did not know was that the future that lay ahead of her and Ichigo would mean that one of them would have to sacrifice everything to save the other, and that the offended party might not be able to get out alive from there...
"I love you, Ichigo." Rukia smiled and closed her eyes as she crept as close to Ichigo as she could.
"And I love you, Rukia."
With those words said, Ichigo also closed his eyes, and soon the two lovers was sleeping tightly wrapped into each other's arms, totally unaware of the terrible fate that awaited them…
