Ryou froze in horror as he his awareness slowly flooded back. What had he done? How had this happened? He swallowed nervously as Ichigo blinked in confusion. 'Shirogane...?' She said uncertainly, her voice quavering. She gasped as she realised that she was naked, with a very naked Shirogane still sheathed inside of her, his seed slowly dripping down the inside of her leg. Her cheeks stained scarlet, and she roughly pushed at his chest, causing Ryou to stumble backwards and fall unceremoniously onto the floor.
'Ow!' he protested, looking up at her in dismay. His heart clenched as he recognised the now familiar expression of fury etched upon her face. The small cat girl was so angry that she had even forgotten to be embarrassed by her nakedness. Her bosom heaved in indignation as she surveyed the blonde man sprawled on the ground at her feet, eyeing her in wary anticipation. She was furious! How could he do this to her, he knew she had been saving herself for Aoyama-kun...
'Baka!' she yelled, tears springing to her eyes. 'How could you do this to me? Is this some twisted form of revenge?' Ryou gaped at her as she laid into him verbally, momentarily stunned. However, it didn't take long for him to grasp what she was insinuating, and his heart was too freshly reinstated for him to pull up his usual icy facade as he answered her.
'What?' He demanded, hurt slightly colouring his tone, 'you're blaming me? You're the one who came up here and jumped me!' His eyes blazed with heat as he leapt to his feet, too angry to restrain himself. He advanced towards the girl threateningly, his expression thunderous. Ichigo cowered slightly as he stalked nearer, the aura of resentment almost palpable. His eyes were like shards of ice as they fixed her to the spot, daring her to say something more.
However, Ichigo was never one to back down from a fight. Swallowing her fear and drawing up the remaining vestiges of her pride, she spat 'You disgust me! How could you take advantage like that! I hate you!' She tossed her red hair arrogantly and shot Shirogane a look full of such venom that he was sure if looks could kill, he would be stone dead upon the floor. She looked so full of disdain. Ryou, however, had reached breaking point. She had hurt him too much over the past several weeks, had literally stomped on his heart as she pointedly ignored and rejected him. This was the final straw. How dare she! He seethed inwardly. He was not just some toy that she could abuse and then discard at will. With supreme effort, Ryou managed to once again seal his heart behind a thick stone wall where it could be protected from the torments of love. Never again would he let her play him for a fool!
'It's not my fault you came panting in here like a bitch in heat,' he snarled at her, his voice ominously low. His scowl deepened when Ichigo had the nerve to look affronted and mildly hurt. His eyes looked like thunderclouds as he glared at her, saying indifferently, 'Get out, Momomiya-san. Next time you need a quick fuck, run to your precious Aoyama-kun before throwing yourself at me like a slut.' Ryou didn't have time to react as he saw her swing her hand at him. Her palm caught him full on the cheek with a resounding crack. He grunted and clutched at his cheek, shooting her a look that could have froze the fiery furnaces of Hell. She scooped up her shredded clothes from the floor and fled, once again leaving an angry, dazed and upset Ryou in her wake.
