Chapter 6: A Chappy Bunny Wedding

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Bleach!!

"No way…did you just ask me to marry you?" Rukia, shocked, cocked her head sideways to look at him.

Shit.

"Um…yeah. Heh…" Ichigo nervously smiled at her.

Rukia looked at the ground, thinking for a moment before lifting her head up to grin, "Yeah…Of course I will!"

Ichigo stepped toward her, but was interrupted by Rukia, "And one more thing: WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY ME WHINING AND MY BAD HABITS?"

"Um… nothing," Ichigo tried looking innocent, which earned him a hit on his head. "Fine, I was just kidding!"

Rukia, satisfied, sat on the ground beneath a big sakura tree, before pulling Ichigo down with her.

They sat there for a while before starting to plan their wedding.

"Let's have it here," Rukia suggested, "It's so beautiful."

"Whatever you want is fine by me," replied Ichigo, "No—"

"CHAPPY BUNNY! We should have some Chappy Bunnies all around the place!"

"Anything but that!"

Rukia stuck her tongue out at him before running down the path where she assumed they came from. Reaching the end, she wondered out loud, "Okay… where do I go now?"

"Now I'm glad that I blindfolded you just now, haha. Wait til your brother hears that you want chappy bunnies at the wedding," Ichigo laughed, "Come on, I'll take you home."

Walking home hand in hand, they continued to argue about chappy bunny.

Rukia burst into Nii-Sama's study, complaining, "Nii-sama! Ichigo won't let me decorate the table cloth with chappy bunnies!"

Alarmed, he looked up at Rukia, and then Ichigo. "So I take it she said yes?"

Nodding, Ichigo tried desperately to stop Rukia from lunging even more at her brother. "I want chappy bunnies at the wedding!"

Shaking his head, Byakuya stood up, "Alright, let's all have a meeting regarding your wedding."

Byakuya, Rukia and Ichigo were sitting at a table, making wedding plans.

"Rukia, the only Chappy Bunnies that will be allowed at the wedding will be part of your gifts to the guests, is that clear?"

"Alright, alright. It'll be part of the gifts to the guests," Rukia scowled. Ichigo cut in, "And they have to be miniature."

"Fine!"

Byakuya looked at the couple, who were glaring at each other, before turning to him and going, "What?"

"Since Ichigo has moved here, he needs an occupation. Would you be interested in being part of the Gotei 13?"

"Yeah…sure. It would be pretty great," Ichigo nodded.

"I will talk to the head captain for you. When will the wedding take place?"

Rukia and Ichigo looked at each other. In unison, they replied, "Summer."

Since it was around 10 at night, they all decided to head to bed. Tomorrow Ichigo would find out what squad he would be in. Hopefully it wouldn't be the sixth squad, where he could be slaughtered by Byakuya at any moment.
