So I guess it's been like a month or something since the last chapter got put up. In this chapter the birthday party starts, there's a lot of filler stuff in here but there will be something significant no worries. (Clair: shh I didn't tell you this but there's a yaoi tease in this chap but you didn't hear it from me.)

Last chapter:
"My King…" A distorted voice said from behind him. 'Shiro.' He thought.
"You're…closer…" The voice from before came again along with the cat in the shadows. He knew if he could just pinpoint who the voice belonged to he'd have an easier time. The cat took a step forward but Ichigo still couldn't see it properly. He reached a hand out and his hand touched fur and a flash of light brought him back to the zoo his hand cupping Captain's head. Captain was now laying down his upper body draped over his leg and head resting on his hip.
"You're not going to kick me off?" Captain rubbed his head on Ichigo's hip the rolled so his chest was facing up and reached toward Ichigo's face with one of his paws. "I'll take that as a no." Ichigo laughed at the display, he guessed it was because he had beat him to the top therefore had won. He rubbed Captain's chest before the cat rolled back to how he was before. Looking down at the now dozing feline Ichigo couldn't help but smile, and couldn't help the strange yet welcome feeling of belonging right there, right then with who he was there with. "It's almost like déjà vu."
"I heard once that having déjà vu means you are right where you are meant to be, at the exact time you are meant to be there, with the persons you are meant to be there with." Clair said climbing up and laying down next to Captain petting his head as he slept. She looked up at Ichigo and smiled, "But yeah it is like déjà vu isn't it."

Chapter 5: The party starts. Things become clearer, or more confusing?
()()()()
The three sat for awhile the two humans pampering the large feline with scratches under his chin and behind his ears. "Why is it like déjà vu for you?" Ichigo asked after a few minutes.
"Well when I was little I used to dream about sitting with a midnight panther that had blue eyes. Till recently I had forgotten about them, when I saw him out in the forest actually. What about you?"
"I don't know it just… feels right… though…"
"Though?"
"I've been having weird dreams lately, they include the guys that died, but we aren't…us in the dreams. Do you get it?"
"Yeah I get it. Past lives maybe? We had talked about something similar back at the bat cave. Maybe that's it. When I was little and was having the dreams about the panther, I'd wake up and think maybe that was me, back before I was me. Maybe I was a girl in an enchanted forest with a panther friend."
"An enchanted forest?" Ichigo asked smiling.
"Yeah…with you know fairies and dragons and stuff…but when I told some older people about that idea they said every kid dreams of being something more and that my imagination was just overactive. I didn't believe them at first but the dreams went away and I forgot about them soon after so… maybe that's all it was… the child in me still hopes those adults were wrong. But… the small adult in me says it's not possible for them to be wrong…"
"I've never been good at listening to what adults tell me is possible or not." Ichigo grinned. 'Technically Rukia is older then me along with everyone else from soul society so.'
"Me too, when I'm out in the field I like to pretend that I'm on some kind of adventure to discover my long forgotten past or something, adds a level of fun when the days are slow." She smiled.
"I bet. So that song you were singing, are you sure you made it up? I mean I don't like doubt your honesty or anything it's just I swear I've heard it before."
"Well maybe on the radio, sometimes I'll hear a song then sing it later and not realize it." She shrugged.
"I guess that's possible." Ichigo agreed he liked to listen to the radio when he did his work so it was very possible.
"Say random question, if you could be any kind of mythical being what would you be?" Clair asked suddenly excited.
"Hmm… you first while I think about it." Ichigo laughed at her enthusiasm.
"An Elvin princess." She answered instantly.
"So specific. An Elvin princess, most girls would settle with being a normal princess."
"Yeah but I'd be a warrior elf and a princess!" she said enthusiastically.
Ichigo laughed, "Being an elf would be cool, I think I'd be on the royal guard. Or I'd be a dragon."
"Why not be both, a hybrid of elf and dragon kind? You could be my personal guard."
"Your highness." He gave a mock bow the best he could from his position making her laugh and Captain huffed at the loss of attention. "Oh so sorry, your majesty did we stop petting you for all of a second?" again Captain huffed but less forcefully since he was getting attention again. "Attention hog."
"It's amazing how much of a liking he's taken to you after so short a time." Clair commented as she rubbed the cat's soft underbelly.
"Yeah," Ichigo looked up at the sky and noticed it was late evening. "I should get going, the others may start to think I got eaten." Clair laughed and hopped off the rock. "Come on Captain I need to get up, you need to get off." Captain meowed lowly and moved so he was even further on top of the carrot-top. "That's the opposite of off fur-ball."
"Do you think you'd be able to come back later after the zoo's closed? I could show you the other animals." Clair suggested as Ichigo tried and failed to push the large cat off himself.
"As much as I'd love to come back tonight my friends have planned this weekend long birthday party for me. Can I come another time?"
"Does Tuesday work?"
"Tuesday's good with me. Hear that fuzzy the sooner you get off the sooner I can come back." Captain seemed to think about it then slowly rolled off. Ichigo jumped down off the rock and grabbed his schoolbag. "See ya later fluffy." He said rubbing Captain's ear one last time, then dodged a lazy swipe at him for the nicknames. "Missed." Clair and he exited the habitat and she locked the gate. "Thanks for letting me come down."
"No problem, it was interesting. Have fun at your party and see ya on Tuesday."
"I will see ya." He waved good bye and went to find Urahara. "So what did you think?"
"That you and that girl go well together." Urahara teased.
Ichigo glared at him half heartedly, "I meant the cat."
"Yes of course. Very strange, I couldn't hear anything you two were saying but it seemed that he was following the conversation much like a person would. And then when you got on top of the rock… I'm honestly not sure what to make of this all Ichigo."
"I had these two weird vision things."
"Vision things?" Ichigo explained the forest and the voices, and the silhouettes he saw in the shadows. "Interesting, and you said this is the first you've had anything happen while awake?" Ichigo nodded, "And both times it happened after you made eye contact with the cat?" again a nod. "hmm…"
"She invited me to come back Tuesday night so that she can show me the others. I figure that you can tag along then in spirit form so she can't see you."
"Yes that will work, but for now lets go find the others yes?" he walked off back to his usual self, Ichigo shook his head and looked back at Captain one last time before following.
It took about fifteen minutes to find the others, and when they did everyone was asking what happened and about the different animals they had seen since they separated. Ichigo did his best to answer as many as he could without giving long answers. Keigo started asking about Clair but Tatsuki pulled him back. Rukia waited off to the side for everyone to calm down before pulling the orange head to the back of the group as they continued on.
"So?"
"So what?" Ichigo asked innocently.
"Ichigo." She said sternly.
Ichigo relented, "He was way more intelligent then a cat should be. He followed our conversation in much the way a human would. And reacted to the things we said. I also got to sit up at the top of the rock, and he really didn't seem to care even laid down and used my legs as a pillow."
Rukia was shocked after hearing what Clair had said back in the bat cave. "But how?" Ichigo explained how he ended up wrestling the cat and made a break for the rock. "Only you would wrestle a giant cat for fun…well maybe Kenpachi would." They both laughed at the truth to her statement. "What does Urahara think?"
"He's not sure yet. So what are we doing next then?"
"Going to an all you can eat buffet for dinner. Karin told me about it, she Yuzu and your dad will meet us there too."
"Does my dad really have to come too?"
"Do you really think he'll make a bigger scene then all these people?"
"Good point." The rest of the trip through the zoo went well aside from a few outbursts from Keigo that were near immediately stopped by Tatsuki. The all left talking about their favorite parts. "I want to go home and put my stuff away so I'm not having to worry about it, I also want to change, can you tell me the place we're going to so I can meet you guys there?" he asked Rukia.
"Nope 'cause it's a surprise. I'll come with you. You guys head to the restaurant we'll catch up with you later.' She told everyone as they headed in the opposite direction.
"Hopefully Goat-face already left," Ichigo mumbled as he opened the door to his house. "I'm home!" silence. "Yes he's gone! I'll be down in a few." He ran up to his room and put the reports and drawings he did in a folder so they'd be ready for school on Monday. He shed his regular blue jeans and t-shirt and put on a pair of skinny black jeans with a silver dragon on the left leg and a navy blue fitted long sleeve shirt with a matching dragon on it. He also pulled out a white vest made from a light material that had a tribal wolf head on the back. He stuck his wallet in his back pocket it was attached to a silver chain the hooked on his belt loop. He didn't bother with his hair and just left it as is.
He ran back down stairs where Rukia gave him a once over, "Where do you think we're going a club? Though you could use a girlfriend."
"Haha so sorry if I want to look nice. And no I don't need a girlfriend."
"A boyfriend then?" she teased.
"Yuck that's just ew Rukia." He gave a shiver to emphasize his point making her laugh. "Come on lets go I'm hungry."
Rukia lead the way to a rather big restaurant, "I love this place." He said excitedly as they approached the group waiting for them.
"Which is why Karin told me to reserve tables here." She told him, "Sorry for taking so long but Ichigo was taking longer then a girl to get ready." She exaggerated.
"I did not! I was putting my school work away it only took me like two minutes to get changed." He defended himself.
"Ichigo! My beautiful so-Ack!"
"Shut up ya creep, can we go eat now I'm starving?" Karin said her foot planted firmly on Isshin's back.
They headed in and Rukia told the hostest who they were and they got lead back to a room meant for large groups so they'd have some privacy. After ordering drinks everyone started arguing over who would sit where.
Ichigo smiled and sat in the middle of one of the tables leaving a seat on either side of him open they were soon filled by his sisters, Karin on his right and Yuzu on his left. There were four seats on each side of the table and Toshiro took the last one on Ichigo's side next to Karin. On the other side was Rangiku across from Yuzu, Rukia across from Ichigo then Renji and Byakuya.
"My beautiful children you have forgotten to save a seat for your wonderful father!?" Isshin complained when he noticed that the table was filled.
"No you were to busy acting like a child so you got left out, first come first serve." Ichigo said uncaringly.
"So cold! Ichigo daddy's hurt by your words! Family is supp-" Ichigo tuned him out.
The table across the room from Ichigo's had Orihime, Tatsuki, Uryuu, Chad, and Keigo. The table behind them held the four squad eleven members. And the one behind Ichigo had the rest of the group, Isshin sitting directly behind Ichigo, Urahara on his left and Yuroichi next to the blond. And on the other side of the table were the two visord captains and Shuhei.
Once everyone got their drinks they went for food. The buffet had different food from all around the world, which was one of the reasons this place was Ichigo's favorite he could have all his favorite foods. The only bad part was is it was a hotspot for collage kids…namely ones from his collage. He ended up getting stopped by a bunch of kids from his classes. The guys weren't bad just 'hi's' 'how are you's' and 'bye'. It was the girls that got annoying, all of them were acting so flustered and shy…and fake…it pissed him off but he kept his cool. He finally managed to make it back to his seat after ten or more minutes.
"Trouble?" Karin asked having seen him get stopped by all the people. Ichigo just sighed and slumped in his chair making her laugh.
"Sometimes I wish I could go back to not knowing they were trying to hit on me." He said shaking his head.
Karin and Yuzu told him all about their day at his request, but broke off into conversations with Toshiro and Rangiku after they were done. Karin and Toshiro were talking about her latest soccer achievements and Rangiku and Yuzu were talking animatedly about who knows what.
"Enjoying yourself birthday boy?" Rukia asked after a bit.
"Yes thank you. But you guys really didn't have to do all this."
"Nonsense after everything you've done for us the least we can do is give you a great party. And it gives everyone a bit of a reprieve."
"Oh I see you're just using my birthday as an excuse to vacation." He teased.
"We are not!" Rukia huffed appalled by the notion.
"Chill out I was just joking. How are things in Soul Society though I haven't been in awhile?"
Everyone talked and ate their fill sometimes switching seats so they could talk to others. Ichigo ended up sitting in Shinji's spot across from his dad, Urahara, and Yuroichi. Kensei and Shuhei were talking with Renji and Shinji was trying to flirt with Orihime. Isshin was the first to talk.
"Urahara told me what you two discussed at the zoo." He started seriously, Ichigo looked him in the eye showing he was listening, "My only question is why didn't you tell me and why only bring it up after two weeks?"
Ichigo looked down at the table, "I honestly wasn't planning on telling anyone ever. I didn't want to give them one more reason to lecture me, you know how much that irritates me."
"Yes I know but you should know that I wouldn't lecture you son. Not over something you truly felt was right." Ichigo nodded his father was the only one so far not to react at all negatively to his belief that those few arrancar were alive. Urahara and Yuroichi never said anything against it and tried to support him silently but their body reactions and faces said enough no matter how hard they tried to hide it. "Now can you tell us all of what happened with the panther and the girl? Seeing as Urahara couldn't hear anything."
Ichigo relayed what happened in as much detail as he could, everything from the time Clair opened the gate to the time he followed Urahara away. "Before following I looked back once more, and Captain was looking up at me watching me go."
"You said you mentioned wanting to fight Grimmjow again," Isshin asked and Ichigo from the corner of his eye saw Urahara and Yuroichi shift making him sigh internally, he nodded to his father. "And then he started wrestling with you?"
"Not right away but he started to shift after I said it yes. At the time I didn't think it was weird but looking back on it…" before they could talk more Shinji came over and sat next to Ichigo.
"Why are we so solemn over here it's a party be happy people! Especially you birthday boy!" Shinji said ruffling Ichigo's hair.
"Stop calling me that." He swatted the blonds hand away.
"No."
They bickered back and forth till Rukia declared it was time for the next 'phase' of the party. This included him his human friends, Rukia and Renji to go somewhere. While his family and the other captains, lieutenants and Ikkaku and Yumichika went off to 'do something somewhere' as Rukia said when he asked why they were splitting up.
"Alright we've split up now what?"
"Karaoke!" Keigo cheered as the started walking.
"Joy." The orange head said as he looked up to the sky, the sun was just getting ready to set.
"Aw come on Kurosaki-kun, Yuzu-chan said you have a very good voice." Orihime said happily.
"Alright. Karaoke it is then." He smiled as everyone cheered.
"Wait the carrot can sing?" Renji said only to be kicked in the head for the nickname.
They all took turns singing solo or with each other. Keigo was doing a really stupid song to make everyone laugh when Rukia's phone went off. They had been at it for a little over an hour when she got the text and said, "Alright time for the next phase!"
"Why do you keep calling them 'phases' you make it sound like we're on some kind of mission." Ichigo said.
"That's cause we are, it's the Kurosaki Ichigo Best Birthday Party Ever Mission!" Keigo said jumping around as the exited the building. Tatsuki hit him on the head asking if he wanted the whole world to hear him.
Once more Rukia lead the way to their next destination while Keigo continued to be loud. The sun had set while they were inside so there was almost no one around to hear Keigo yelling but they were entering the housing district so Tatsuki told him to shut up again.
"My house is the next 'phase'?" he asked as they stood in front of his door.
"Yep now go in." Rukia said pushing him up to the door. They forced him to go in first, he opened the door and everything was quiet and dark.
"Hello?"
"Happy birthday!" everyone yelled as the lights were turned on. Ichigo looked around a smile on his face, the entire first floor of his house had been turned into a party zone. There were streamers and balloons everywhere. And on the kitchen table sat a larger birthday cake.
"Thanks everyone. Is that chocolate?" he asked going over to the cake.
"Of course!" Isshin laughed loudly. "Time for candles and singing!"
"Seriously?! I just want to eat it…" He complained but went with it anyway just to humor his dad. Everyone –minus Byakuya and Kenpachi for two different reasons- sang happy birthday to him and he blew the candles out. 'I wish theses dreams would become clearer so I can understand them.'
Everyone cheered and tried to get him to spill what he wished for while Yuzu cut the cake. While she did that Karin and Yuroichi got drinks for everyone. Once each person had some cake they all spread out in the living room to eat and talk. Ichigo found a spot along the wall where he could see everyone else.
Yachiru and Kenpachi had claimed the couch, on the floor in front of them was Karin and Toshiro. Yuzu, Rangiku, and Orihime were just to the side of them talking about food from what the orange head could tell. To his left Renji and Rukia were talking and Byakuya stood not to far off from them. To the other side was Kensei and Shuhei talking about the new recruits in their squad. Behind the couch was his dad, Urahara, Yuroichi, and Shinji talking about something. Chad had come over and sat next to him after having enough of Keigo talk his ear off, Tatsuki and Uryuu weren't so lucky as to get away. And Ikkaku and Yumichika were against the far wall talking.
'I guess the only one missing is Nel. She'll probably show up at some point or another.'
"Is something wrong Ichigo?" Chad asked.
"Nah, I was just thinking about Nel. It's been roughly a year since we've seen her, I hope she's doing ok." Chad nodded but said nothing more.
After everyone had their fill of cake there was almost none left. Rukia told them the opening of presents was next then it would be on to the games. Such games included twister –because Rukia wanted to watch grown men play a kids game- random board games, and a few short drinking games.
Each person had bought one gift for him, and they had brought the presents from those who couldn't come tot the party as well, such as Ukitake, Hanatoro, and Kukaku. There was all kinds of gifts, little kick-knacks, useful everyday stuff, and some prank gifts. Renji's prank gift nearly lost him something very important to hisself -he had gotten Ichigo a t-shirt with strawberries on it.
Ichigo refused to play twister but was more then happy to film the others play. Others being Renji, Isshin, Shinji, Shuhei, and Ikkaku, while Karin was in charge of the spinner. Shuhei won the first round and Isshin and Renji tied the second both slipping at the same time. The girls went next, Orihime, Tatsuki, Rangiku, Yuroichi, and Karin played while Yuzu and Yachiru took turns with the spinner.
Yuroichi won both rounds, along with most of the drinking games, either Shinji or Kensei winning the others though Keigo gave it a valiant effort. The board games were randomly placed around the rooms and everyone picked which they wanted to play. By the time 2 am had rolled around pretty much everyone was passed out somewhere on the first floor either from exhaustion or drinking too much.
Ichigo looked around shaking his head a soft smile on his lips. He had only had two beers so he was only buzzed a little. He saw Yuzu passed out on the couch a small smile on her face, next to her on the other side was Shuhei and on the floor in front of him was Kensei leaning against the couch out cold from drinking. Karin and Toshiro were in between him and the tv on the floor finishing up one last game of go fish. To the left of the tv were Rukia and Renji sitting up against the wall and leaning on each other sleeping soundly. On the connecting wall Yumichika was reading quietly with Ikkaku -sprawled on the floor next to him as drunk as Kensei- using his leg as a pillow. On the other side of the room on the floor was Shinji and Keigo laying haphazardly both drunk off their asses.
Kenpachi had taken Yachiru back to Soul Society around midnight after she played a few board games. Orihime had invited Rangiku and Tatsuki to stay over at her place for the night so they wouldn't take up so much room at Ichigo's house about an hour ago. Chad and Uryuu had left around the same time saying they'd be back for the rest of the party. He walked to the kitchen where Byakuya was reading at the table quietly and his dad, Urahara, and Yuroichi were talking. Everyone having been accounted for he went back to the living room.
"Karin, I'm going to take Yuzu upstairs, you should finish and head up too, you said you had practice later tomorrow right?" She nodded before yawning, she and Toshiro put the cards away.
"Matsomoto went with Inoue right?" Toshiro asked falling asleep as well. Ichigo nodded and went to pick Yuzu up as gently as he could so that she didn't wake up. After tucking her in and making sure Karin got up to bed as well he went to find some blankets and pillows for those downstairs. He placed them gently over everyone and adjusted Kensei so he was laying down and put a pillow under him. He left Rukia and Renji leaning on each other so he could see their reaction in the morning. 'I'm so evil sometimes.' He thought as he took a picture of the two with his phone.
"Here." He handed Yumichika on of the blankets as he carefully shifted Ikkaku off his leg and putting it on a pillow instead and threw the last blanket over him.
"Thank you. You really didn't have to do all that." Yumichika told him having watched how much care he had taken to make sure everyone was comfortable and warm.
Ichigo shook his head, "Nah, it's the least I can do, I had a great time today." He said smiling, he really had enjoyed the first half of the party giving everyone blankets and pillows was no big deal.
"You should get one for Captain Kuchiki as well."
"Haha if I tried to give him a blanket he'd probably give me some kinda crap about being a noble and a Kuchiki and not needing one or something."
"True, well good night then Ichigo-san. I hope you sleep well." He put his book off to the side and made himself as comfortable as he could on the floor next to his drunken friend.
"Night, you sleep well too yeah?" they nodded to each other and Ichigo waved good night to his dad before heading up to his room. "I wonder if I'll have another dream tonight…" he thought aloud as he changed out of his clothes and pulled on a pair of track pants leaving his chest bear. "Maybe I'll be able to get more out of them now." he hoped so, after everything that happened at the zoo especially with Captain he thought there was a good chance of it.
He didn't bother with the covers being too tired and just laid down on his stomach on top of them using his arm as a pillow instead of his real one. "Grimmjow…Silane…" he mumbled as he began to drift off. "Are you two the same perso…"
()()()()
"Oi! Wake up sleepy head!" Ichigo felt someone poking him in the side.
"Mmm…go 'way, 'm sleepy…" he mumbled.
"No can do," a familiar male voice said as its owner poked him again, "By the way why are you sleeping in the middle of a meadow?"
'I'm not I'm in my bed.' Ichigo tried to say but instead said. "Because I feel like it, and because only you and Si'ine can find me out here." 'Wait Si'ine? Am I dreaming? It doesn't feel like a dream.' Ichigo or who he was in the dream at least still hadn't moved and still had his face buried in his arm.
"True we can find you anywhere, you used to hate playing hide and seek when we were little." Dream Ichigo scoffed as the person belonging to that oh so familiar voice laid down next to him. "But come on the only time you ever go anywhere no one can find you is because you're thinking about something deeply. So what is it this time? And don't lie you know I can tell when you're lying one of the perks of knowing you your whole life." The voice chuckled.
Dream Ichigo scoffed then sighed relenting after a few seconds. "Yes… there's something…"
"Did you hear then?" the voice asked concern laced through it.
"Depends on what you're talking about. Do you mean the marriage or the Telling?"
"Both." Dream Ichigo sighed again. "I don't see why you'd be bummed about the marriage part, you know and like the girl."
"Yeah as a friend!...But that's not the problem Silane…" 'Wait it's Silane!? That's why it's familiar! It's the voice from those visions too! And the other dreams!' "It's the Telling…" Dream Ichigo pulled himself up so that he was on his knees but kept his gaze on the grass in front of himself instead of the man to his left. "It…it said that you'd…"
"Hey, look at me." Dream Ichigo didn't move, "I said look at me," Silane sat up and moved closer as he gently took Dream Ichigo's chin and turned his head. Ichigo gasped in his mind, it really was, it was the man that Grimmjow always became in his other dreams, though this was the first time he'd seen him so clearly. He looked close to what Grimmjow did in his release form, long silky looking blue hair that moved on the gentle breeze as if it weighed nothing, there were a few small braids here and there. Instead of his cat ears being teal they were midnight blue and the marking came down to his eyes just like the teal ones did for Grimmjow.
'His eyes though, they're the same, the same ever changing blue. But there's no hate or rage in them, only concern and warmth…it's oddly comforting.' He felt his body relax as it had tensed when Silane had asked about what was wrong.
"Are you even listening to me? Or are you too busy admiring how amazing I look?" Silane asked with a cocky grin. 'If this is a past life like Clair suggested then he definitely hasn't lost any of his narcissism.' Ichigo thought with a chuckle.
"Admire a fuzzball like you? I'd soon as kiss a toad." Dream Ichigo scoffed playfully swatting the hand holding his chin away.
Silane put a hand over his heart and acted like he'd been wounded. "I'm hurt my Prince!" his grin came back but more mischievous. "And here I thought you loved my looks." He purred.
Feeling something on his leg Dream Ichigo looked down to see a fluffy midnight blue tail with a slightly lighter tip tracing his thigh. "Silane…"
"Yes?" the word was purred right into his ear making him jump at the closeness that hadn't been there when he looked down.
"Stop."
"Why? It's fun teasing you like this." He licked Dream Ichigo's cheek making him push the cat man away.
"I'm serious Silane! Aren't you worried?!"
"Why should I be? It wont happen this cycle so why worry about it now, we can worry about it when the times comes for it to happen. So for now…" He tackled Dream Ichigo to the ground pinning him. "let's have some fun." He grinned.
'THE HELL!? Please tell me that we, that they aren't!' Ichigo thought freaking out.
Dream Ichigo rolled his eyes before he managed to roll them over straddling the cat's stomach pinning his arms above his head and leaned down so he could whisper in one of the soft cat ears. "We've never had fun in such a way and I don't intend to start now." 'Thank goosness…'
"It's fun for me. You're so easy to rile up and get flustered…though lately it's been getting harder but that makes it more fun I have to learn new tricks." Silane chuckled in reply. 'Asshole you're no better then Yuroichi!'
"You are an insufferablely annoying pain in my ass."
"I'd love to be a pain in your ass." The cat cackled. 'AHHHH! So gross!'
"And a perverted jackass who thinks he's all that. But I wouldn't want you any other way." Silane chuckled but it was cut short by a gasp and he pushed Dream Ichigo away for blowing in his sensitive cat ear.
"And you say I'm insufferable?" Silane growled rubbing his ear as Dream Ichigo just laughed.
"You deserved it for licking me." Ichigo felt his body smile and that smile was soon returned by the man in front of him as he crawled over to hug Dream Ichigo.
"Never stop smiling my soon-to-be-King, no matter what happens in the future between us. I'll find you just like I always have, just promise that this time you'll look for me too." Silane requested as he rubbed his nose in Dream Ichigo's hair.
"I promise…no matter what anyone says or does… I'll find my way to you in the next cycle. After all I can't very well be a real king if I don't have my trusty captain by my side can I?" They smiled at each other before hugging one last time before the scene froze and faded.
'Well that was interesting.'

Well that was interesting, well I thought so at least, I'd love to know what lovelies thought. As for party games I drew a complete blank on any interesting ones.
Did you enjoy my little tease there at the end? (Poor Ichigo had a panic attack.)
What did you think of the first day of the party?
What do you think will happen in the morning when Ichigo wakes up?
Will you actually answer any of my questions or will you remain silent and let me brood in uncertainty?
Till next time my lovely readers!
