Chapter Four: The Morning After!

"Whoa! What HAPPENED last night?" Ichigo asked as he awoke to Rukia lying on him...again!

Everyone was still there, Orihime, Tatsuki, Uryu, Toshiro, Momo, Matsumoto, and Renji...who looked like he could just KILL Ichigo! Everyone but Tatsuki and Matsumoto (the only people who were actually drinking) seemed to have a hang over and amnesia about what happened the night before.

"OH, GOOD MORNING!" Matsumoto said cheerfully.

"WOULD YOU SHUT UP? IT'S STILL EARLY!" Toshiro yelled at her.

Everyone seemed to stay in their pairings (which in Matsumoto's point of view were absolutely perfect.) over the course of the night to. As everyone got up and ready to go, a heavy silence hung over the room. Matsumoto, Renji, Momo, and Toshiro were getting ready to go back to Soul Society. Tatsuki, Orihime, and Uryu had left for there homes. And soon it was just Ichigo and Rukia left to explain themselves about last night.

Rukia broke the silence "Soooo...you wanna do something fun before we go to school tomorrow?"

"Yeah, that sounds fine I guess. What do you wanna do?"

"I don't know...YOU pick!"

"I picked YESTERDAY!"

"...To be honest...I think it would have to wait until later. Nii-sama is holding a meeting in Soul Society that Renji told me I needed to attend."

Ichigo's eyes widened. "Soul Society? You're going BACK there? How long are you gonna be gone?"

He probably showed far too much concern than he would have liked to.

"Calm down! I wont be gone TOO long. You worry too much!"

Yeah, after what happened...I worry too much!

"I'll be back by dinner." She said. She went to take a shower, and came back in one of her new dresses.

It flaunted every curve on her body perfectly, and Ichigo had to literally slap himself to stop staring.

"What's wrong?" She smiled. The smile faded. "You don't like it... do you?"

"Oh NO! I love it!" He blurted out.

I gotta stop!! what happened last night...was a joke! A JOKE, as in 'HAHA funny!' Rukia obviously doesn't remember, so she doesn't care! I shouldn't care either. But he couldn't help it. He remembered the feel of her skin, and the taste of her lips...he longed for it.

"Okay! I'm leaving!...Oh and Ichigo?"

"What?"

"Don't follow me. Okay? I'll be back!"

"Alright, I said I wasn't gonna follow your ass!...Have fun."

"Yeah, right." She said as she walked out the door.

Dinner was served at approximately seven o clock in the Kurosaki household, Rukia knew that.

At 6:55, she still wasn't home, and surprisingly Ichigo was worried. He went against his word as he pressed his shinigami representative badge to his chest.

He went to Urahara's Shoten where there was a gate to Soul Society. As he approached the gate, he heard a familiar voice cal his name "Ichigo!" He stopped. "Ichigo! I told you not to follow me!" It was Rukia, and she wasn't in one of the best moods... obviously. "Oh, hey! Are...you okay? You look kinda, I dunno...ticked." He laughed.

"Yeah! I'm FINE!" She snapped, as she walked up to him. He offered to give him a ride... and she HAD to be upset because she climbed right on his back. As they made their way home, he realized she should have shown him the dresses she tried on because this one was so short that while he was holding her up, he was holding bare skin.

He felt himself squeezing her thigh slightly, and flinched, expecting a slap. But e got the complete opposite. She just leaned into his back more and nuzzled up to his neck.

She got into something rough over there...

When they got home, he laid her on the bed. "So what happened to you over there?"

"Nothing." She said turning to look out the window, distancing herself from him as much as possible.

"You know you're lying! Now what the hell is it?"

"You really want to know?" She asked.

"UH YEAH! Why do you think I keep asking you?"

"Nii-sama...wants to marry me off..."

NO WAY!

"NO WAY! They can't do that!!!" He yelled showing nothing but anger and worry. "Who are they trying to make you marry?"

Rukia held back her tears, for she understood the irony of the situation. "Renji...Nii-sama wants me to marry RENJI!" She started to cry now. He just wrapped his arms around her and held on tight. As they swayed back and forth she managed to stutter.."I-I-I have to g-go back to S-S-Soul S-S-S-Society...

m-marry Renji...and h-h-have...have his ch-ch-child!

END NOTE: SUSPENCE!!!!!! And BADDDD Ichigo for violating Rukia-san like that! Oh well it can't be helped.
