Malice of the heart

A/U: hey guys. this just a kinda filler to show where Ichigo realizes he's in love with rukia, and later ill add uryu and inoue. pleas e enjoy it.

Ichigo was back at soul society, and something felt different. Not because he was a captain now, but because of what happened between him and rukia.

FLASHBACK

Rukia was walking down the west corridor, Ichigo the north, when they collided between the north, south, east, and west corridors. She rubbed her head, and said "Oi. Watch where you're going asshole. Oh, captain kurosaki, I-"she was cut off by him smacking her on her head, and then saying "Just the midget I was looking for. I need to know if you will do something for me, a favor."

"Of course I'll help. What do you need?"

"I want you to be my lieutenant. Do you except, miss kuchiki?" She had never known Ichigo to be so formal, and never had he called her miss Kuchiki. What did he really want? "Sure, why not." He walked away, saying thank you, and left her in the dark. She had been waiting a month to tell him about her feeling, and now was the best time as ever.

She ran after him and when she caught up to him, he looked down, and was instantly pulled him into a passionate embrace, leaving him breathless. HE closed his eyes and so did she. They pulled apart and both said "Wow" and when they looked around, Ikkaku, Renji, Hanaturo, Toshiro, Morzan, Isshin, Byakuya, Unahana, Zaraki, Gin and Matsumoto, Yachiru, Hinamori, Izuru, and many others were around them. Kon was on the floor, crying something about nee-san going with a strawberry, but Ichigo would get him later. Ikkaku was laughing, but stopped when Gin and Morzan said something about a board game, Renji stormed off in anger, Hanaturo and Toshiro were smiling at each other like they were gonna hold it over them. Isshin was asking when the marriage was to take place, Byakuya was hitting him over the head repeatedly for the remark, Unahana let out a sad smile, but congratulated them none the less, Zaraki was explaining the kiss to Yachiru, Hinamori was holding Toshiro's hand blushing, and Izuru had gone over to Gin, matsumoto and Morzan and asked if they wanted some sake.

He walked away from Rukia, both still blushing from the kiss.

FLASHBACK ENDS

He just kept walking, and was about half way to his office when Morzan came up besides him. "Hey Ichigo. How's it going?" His breath smelled of fire and alcohol, and he stumbled a little. "I'm going to do paperwork. Why does your breath smell like alcohol?"

"I was hanging out with Gin, Izuru, and Matsumoto. Do you really need to ask?"

"I thought Izuru was dead."

"He got turned into a hollow and purified, but he decided to not become a captain again(1)."

"I wish that would happen to ma sometimes."

"Don't we all. Oh, I finished your paperwork with my bankia's help. You want to go train our zannos?"

"Na, I'm gonna go see Rukia." He left Morzan smiling behind him, and ran to find Rukia. She was in the thirteenth squad office, moving her stuff to the box by the seat. He was about to approach her, but her captain came out and said "Rukia, why are you backing up your things?"

"I hate to tell you this captain, but I was asked to take on the job of fifth squad lieutenant by captain Kurosaki. I couldn't pass this up captain. But I promise I'll come visit." HE hugged her and said "I was wondering when you would leave. And I heard about that kiss. It's about, pardon my French, god damn fucking time. If you had waited any long, I would be out five million yen."

"You had a bet pool on when Ichigo and I would kiss? He ran off before he could answer, so Ichigo stepped out. "Hey rukia, mind if I walk you to the office?"

"Not at all, captain." He took the box from her and they walked along the path. After five minutes of silence, Ichigo said "Rukia, after the kiss, I went into my soul, and talked with them(She knows abut the hollow, zangetsu, and Ogihci), and they think I should just say it. For a long time now, I've had trouble realizing something, but after that kiss, I can't get it out of my mind. Rukia," He turned to her and said, "I think I love you." She stopped dead in her tracks, and turn to him. She walked over and said "Bout time, idiot." And walked off

A WEEK LATER

Morzan came running down the street. It had finally happened, or was about to. Ichigo and Rukia had told each other about their feelings, and had been dating for a week, and thanks to his uncle he knew what Ichigo was about to do the most amazing thing ever. He was closely followed by Gin, matsumoto, Renji, Byakuya, Hinamori, Toshiro, Isshin, Izuru, Ikkaku, Unahana, and Zaraki and Yachiru. He had Karin on his back and Yuzu was on Zaraki's other shoulder, playing with Yachiru.

They finally got there, and every one masked their rieatsu. They were on the huge hill, were Ichigo had saved Rukia fro an execution earlier on. He had his arm around her, and they were watching the sun rise. When it was at its peak of beauty, they stood up, Ichigo reached into his pocket and pulled out a box of black satin, and opened it up to reveal a ring made of gold, with a huge diamond on the front. "The diamond is made from the ice of your shikia, so you can transform it's size shape, and everything else at your command, and it increases your shikia. I figured it would be the perfect wedding ring, don't you think?"

"Yes, yes it will."

"Does that mean you except?"

She smacked him over the head and said "Yes dumb ass. Did you think I would say no. I will marry you Ichigo." A loud cheer came from the tree line were they were hiding, and Morzan hit his forehead with his hand. They came out and Morzan said "Can I tell soul society, please?"

"On one condition." Said Ichigo. "You have to be the best man."

"Of course." He drew Pheonixio and brought it over his head, then let his rieatsu flow into it, then used his zanno's power to increase the flames, then he yelled "Calkia!" and a giant wall of black flame was instantaneously in the sky, and in blue flames it said:

ICHIGO PROPOSED TO RUKIA AND SHE SAID YES!!

When deafening cheer came, he sealed it and put the blade in it's sheath, ending the display. "So what do I have to do?"
