I'm sorry, don't kill me for not updating, if you read An evolving relationship by Masterliful then you should know that I had some problems with my word program, for those of you who don't know then...well, now you know. I may not be updating until next year because of a writer's block and loss of interest in this story, hopefully you will enjoy this chapter and send me many delightful reviews~!
I also wish to inform you that Bleach is no longer my favourite anime, and I only write stories for my favourite and second favourite anime, I am now a mega fan of Death Note and will be publishing two stories for that category, which I will try to keep going along with this one (here's a tip that works with all stories; reviews make us writers publish faster, we rely on them to tell us if our writing is crap or not)
now that I'm 95% sure that your annoyed by my rambling I will let you read this chapter...after I say; please give me some precious reviews, please, please, please, I need reviews to live! no, seriously, I eat them and then they give me the energy to write more chapters!
"We won!" Karin cheered, "Barely" Ichigo yawned "uuuurrrrggggghhhh, just watching you guys is exhausting!" Toshiro rolled his eyes and went to search for his parents, Karin following behind. "Hey, Toshiro! Where are we going?" Karin asked Toshiro as they zigzagged through the crowd, blushing as they held each other's hands so they wouldn't get separated, "do you want to meet my parents?" Toshiro asked back, Karin nodded. "There they are" Toshiro said a moment later, just ahead of them Juushiro and Minatsu were leaning against a wall, quietly talking. "They're are your parents?" Karin asked, Toshiro nodded and grabbed his father's wrist, who, in turn grabbed Minatsu's.
Toshiro led them back to his house and into the lounge room/arcade. "So, who is this?" Minatsu asked her son as she sat down. "Karin Kurosaki" Toshiro replied, "his girlfriend" Juushiro added. "NO!" both Karin and Toshiro yelled, Minatsu laughed. "You two better get a move on then, I want grandchildren!" Juushiro exclaimed, Minatsu nodded in agreement. "Shut up, shut up, shut up" Toshiro quietly chanted, both Minatsu and Juushiro only laughed in response.
"I heard that you ran into a brick wall, are you okay?" Minatsu asked her son, who nodded. "why did you run into a wall anyway?" Minatsu asked, "we were racing each other to a meeting" Karin answered.
"Hey, that reminds me!" Karin exclaimed as she turned to Toshiro, "why do you call me by my first name and everyone else by their last? You said that captains must call everyone except their relatives, close friends and partners by their last names but you didn't answer my question properly". Toshiro went quiet, he didn't want to explain it to Karin with his parents sitting on the couch across from them. At that moment Miyabi and Hyourinmaru decided to materialise and add to the conversation.
"Yeah Mr cutie, explain why you call her by her first name" Miyabi teased, already knowing the answer. "If you don't answer I will" Hyourinmaru said, quoting the first sentence he had heard the black dragon appear. Toshiro remained quiet, a large blush covering his face. "Well...your my friend aren't you?" Toshiro asked Karin back.
"Liar" Hyourinmaru growled, "just tell her you picture her as more than a good friend already! That good friends part was a lie anyway!" Toshiro's face was getting redder and redder by the second, Minatsu and Juushiro had already hidden halfway up the stairs, far enough for Toshiro and Karin to think that they had left and close enough to still hear the conversation.
"I'll bet you fifty bucks that their gonna get together today" Juushiro whispered to Minatsu. "a hundred if it's in the next hour" Minatsu whispered back.
Minatsu and Juushiro saw Hyourinmaru and Minatsu tiptoe towards them. "What are they talking about now?" Juushiro asked Hyourinmaru only to get an answer from Miyabi. "They're finally confessing their love to each other~" Miyabi squealed, blocking her words and thoughts from her master seeing Hyourinmaru do the same.
"Really?!" Minatsu squeaked, instantly turning and looking between the bars of the staircase so she could see her son better. "Awwwww~!" Minatsu squealed, "damn, they're fast" Juushiro chuckled as he watched his son make-out with the fifth division's captain's little sister. Ichigo wont be happy with this!
