"Dad! C'mon! I really have to go! Can't we do this some other time?" groaned an exhausted Ichigo.
"But Ichigo! You really have to help me! I don't know which shade to get Yuzu. Passionate Pink or Rumbling Red Rose?" asked Isshin in confusion.
"If you don't know, then do you really expect me to know?"
"I guess your right." Isshin sighed. "Alright, son, you can go. But where are you headed to, anyways?"
"None of your business! But I really gotta go, see ya!"
Isshin looked after his son as he left. "That boy, sometimes...."
Riiing, riiing. Riiing, riiing. Riii-
"Oh, hi, Tatsuki! What am I doing today? Oh, I was just going to go the park. Oh, no, Tatsuki, that's okay, really! Yes, I'll be fine all by myself. Okay, bye!"
After putting the phone down, Orihime rushed over to her pile of basic picnic items, gathered them up into her arms, and was out the door with no time to waste.
Huffing and puffing, Ichigo rested his hands on his knees, gathering enough breath to speak.
"S-sorry I am late, Orihime! I was at the store with my dad -" Orihime giggled.
"It's okay, Ichigo! I was late, too! I only got here just a few minutes ago. But I knew I should have been on time! Otherwise I would have kept you waiting, Ichigo." Orihime smiled.
Ichigo was falling into the depth of the sea of hearts, and fast.
A/N: Well, it wasn't too bad. But when I was writing, I was really tempted to go, "Orihime ^_^". XD Well, I hope you liked it!!
