AN: Hi! Sorry I didn't update in a while. This chapter just really frustrated me. I wanted to add a lot of things in it and I was starting to doubt my writing ability. One of those things being, keeping the characters IC. It's hard because this is a smut fiction along with the topic being so untouched for Ichiruki. I don't know maybe it's just me but I literally went through this chapter about 10 times until I was satisfied enough.
After wondering if I should just make one huge chapter, I decided that there will be two parts to this chapter as a whole, and they will be uploaded back to back. Luckily I'm almost done with the second part so you should expect it at latest, tomorrow. Then we can move on!
Also want to say there's going to be adult content coming up and less dialogue than usual, though there will be some character interaction, fluff, and lime. You'll also see Ichigo being flip floppy and Rukia's resolve dwindle on its last legs.
Over the course of a couple weeks, Ichigo tried out the aphrodisiac on Rukia in different ways, trying to see her different reactions to them while leveling the strength of each medium. He still avoided his sister at every turn, not wanting to get caught up in its effect like last time, he wasn't sure just how much control he would have over himself the next time she was feeling the effects around him.
Ichigo would go off to train with Yoruichi as much as he could, even begrudgingly spend time with his godfather Urahara for extra training when Yoruichi wasn't around. He would hang out with his friends to try and avoid his house as much as possible and if he couldn't leave he would pretty much lock himself in his room.
Yeah, his actions may have been a little extreme, but Ichigo couldn't chance it. He needed his sister to break, for her to finally come to him and forget about their relation.
The word hard, wouldn't even cover how difficult she would be to break.
The first test was on Tuesday night, Ichigo knew Rukia was going to take another bath so he sprinkled some of the aphrodisiac in her bath water and left soon after. He thought about forgetting the whole thing and fucking her then, but realized that wouldn't change anything. His teenage hormones were most likely going to be one of the biggest contributors to his plans demise. He just hoped and prayed he could somehow keep them under check. Being with another woman was out of the question, he'd rather become a monk on Mount Fujiyama and forgo all intimacy, resulting in his father's untimely early death, if he couldn't be with Rukia like that again. That realization became obvious to him when he went to the party. Rukia couldn't be replaced.
At dinner, Rukia was experiencing the same symptoms as she did when Ichigo put the stimulant in her hair shampoo. The twins luckily didn't seem to notice as they continued on talking to each other while Rukia and Ichigo gave their usual few words into the conversation.
Rukia was trying hard to control the need to take off her clothes and ignore the tingling in her core. She knew better than to look at Ichigo directly. Every time she'd glance at him, even a little bit, her eyes would grow bleary and she'd have a moan building in her throat. It was best to ignore him along with everything else.
"So, Ichi-nii, Rukia-nee. What's been going on with you two lately?" Karin interjected, suddenly serious. The room went quiet as Ichigo frowned at his sister and Rukia squirmed in her seat, most likely trying to ease the pressure on her center. Ichigo wouldn't dare look at her knowing that the sight would have been erotic, her sweet lilac smell wafting around the room as she moved was already enough to get him slightly hard.
It was amazing how just her presence or even the smallest things she did had immense control over his body. The longer they were apart just made it stronger.
"Yeah, Onii-san. You and Onee-san have been really distant lately." Yuzu confirmed with a pout directed at her older siblings. The twins were sitting opposite each other like Ichigo and Rukia. Yuzu to Ichigo's side, Karin to Rukia's. They all were in their normal school uniforms.
Ichigo thought Rukia wouldn't be able to speak, what with her affliction, but as always she surprised him. Hearing her dark confident voice trying to not to waver made him smile slightly, luckily no one noticed. He couldn't deny the respect he had for his sister, she was a very strong woman, no doubt about it. Anyone but him probably wouldn't be able to break her.
Ichigo couldn't help himself from looking over to her as she began.
"What are you guys talking about? We've always been like this." Rukia said with a slight chuckle. Her face seemed calm but he noticed the slight sheen of sweat on her brow and the slight shake in her hand. Her eyes were dimly hazed over but overall she seemed fine. The constant biting of her plump pink lips got to Ichigo though and he had to quickly direct his attention away from her.
Karin's eyes narrowed as she gave Rukia an incredulous look. "No you weren't. A long time ago you guys actually used to love each other."
"Karin!" Yuzu yelled, simultaneously dropping her chopsticks down on her plate. She didn't understand where her sister was going with this. Of course they loved each other!
Ichigo grit his teeth to bite down his words to no avail. "What are you talking about Karin. We do love each other." He said lowly, keeping his eyes anywhere but the girl he loved more than he should.
Rukia blushed, she hadn't heard those words come out of his mouth in a while. It made her heart brighten with happiness even if the context was meant to be for familial love.
"No, not like you loved each other before." Karin stared into Ichigo's eyes as if she knew all his secrets. His own amber eyes widened when she started talking again. "You guys used to be joined at the hip always together, now you can barely look at each other." She looked to Yuzu when Ichigo's gaze flickered guiltily even as his face stayed straight. "I don't know about you Yuzu, but this is more like hate than love."
"Karin, stop." Yuzu said gently. Karin just rolled her eyes and continued to glare back at Ichigo.
Yuzu and her sister talked about this earlier but she didn't think Karin would come out and say it. They both saw the changes in their siblings. For the longest time they never said anything thinking they would fix it themselves, but now it seemed as if it only got worse. She'd never seen her Onee-san so miserable and Ichigo was barely ever in the house anymore. One night when she passed by Rukia's room she thought she even heard muffled crying. Rukia rarely if ever cried, so hearing that was more than a little shocking. It broke Yuzu's heart.
Ichigo turned from his sister's probing stare, he could see her confusion behind the anger in her eyes. He understood where she was coming from, they weren't as much of a family anymore. "It's, nothing."
Rukia had moved to glare down at her food when Karin specified their distancing with each other, cursing herself for worrying them. She knew that her emotions were a lot duller than usual since Ichigo seemed to officially stop talking to her. She stopped hanging around her sisters as much so they wouldn't pick up on her mood but that seemed to backfire.
It hurt her terribly to not be able to be with Ichigo like she knows in her heart they should be. The only thing keeping her determination together was the thought of her sisters being even more disappointed by the truth of their "distancing" relationship.
"Whatever." Karin said leaving the table and her half eaten food. Yuzu went after her sister and Ichigo finished his food, not looking at Rukia once. He left soon after and Rukia was alone with her thoughts. She had to talk to him soon.
Ichigo hadn't tried anything else until the weekend, he stayed in his room doing his easy homework, well at least to him it was easy. Thinking about what Karin said, or specifically Rukia. He always thought she was beautiful, smelled nice, her voice soothing. Now all his senses seemed to be hit tenfold by her presence. It wasn't his fault the world was so cruel as to make them related by blood. If they weren't he wouldn't waste a minute to be with her. She was everything to him.
For some reason their relationship didn't seem as wrong to him as much as it should. Deep down inside it felt as if they were meant to be together no matter the blood relation.
He only hoped now that Rukia saw how her resistance was effecting their sisters. He didn't want to sound like he had no part in it but she had to know they couldn't go back to being normal siblings. That wasn't right, they were never normal, at best ignorant to their true feelings. Ignorant to the indescribable quality of making love with each other.
By Wednesday, their father had called, rescheduling his time back to next week. Ichigo was disappointed, not that you'd hear him admit it, but also a little happy that the old fart wouldn't start questioning things too. Isshin was even more observant than his sisters. He always had the stinging feeling the old man knew more than he let on.
With swayed resolve, Ichigo had tried since Karin made her statement, to act a little more normally around Rukia and forget all of it. It didn't work even a little bit. His thoughts easily became either perverted or lovesick as he stared at her form when they walked to and from school. Perverted he could somewhat deal with, lovesick just made him angry.
She would look behind herself to him as if trying to say something while he would nonchalantly turn away as if barely acknowledging her presence.
During lunch with their friends, she would sit by him as per usual and he couldn't help but imagine taking her somewhere and being back in her depths. His thoughts became even more irritating every time her soft legs would brush his own, remembering how they were once crossed around his waist when he... Luckily the bell would ring or Keigo would distract him with his endless bantering.
On Monday, he used the aphrodisiac in her perfume which didn't affect her much but almost made him lose his feeble control.
"Hey Onii-san" Rukia said once she saw him in the hallway. She was determined to get him to talk to her. Ichigo turned around right as he saw her, he knew if they stayed that they wouldn't be going to school any time soon. He barreled out of the door without looking back, leaving a confused and slightly hurt Rukia glaring at the back of his head. Rukia lifted her arm smelling her perfume again. It did smell weirder today. Maybe she shouldn't wear it anymore.
The next day, Ichigo decided to try the last thing he had in mind, direct consumption.
Ichigo got up and out of his bed, stretching his long muscled arms up and around his head as the sun bathed him in light through his window. The handsome teenager walked into his bathroom and started up his shower like every morning. He rarely if ever took a bath any more unlike his sisters, especially Rukia, she seemed to live in the bath house. Nope, he got over baths when he entered middle school. I mean really, it was stupid, he hated sitting in something that made him want to go to sleep when he had to go to school, it seemed counter intuitive. He needed something quick and efficient, not soothing and relaxing.
After his shower, Ichigo brushed his pearly whites, shaved, washed his face, and looked at his hair. With a shrug he pulled on the rest of his uniform in his room, it was the normal black and white, blazer and slacks with the school emblem on the breast pocket, except Ichigo never wore his tie and wore whatever shirt he wanted under the blazer. Once he was ready he headed downstairs. He had to get there before Rukia so that he could put the aphrodisiac in her food, more specifically her tea.
When Ichigo got to the breakfast room, which was brightened by the huge bay window in front of it, he was happy to find their food already lined out for them. Yuzu and Karin still were nowhere to be found. All was quiet besides the slow ticking of the grandfather clock and the low bustle of the workers cleaning up the kitchen.
Ichigo looked over to where Rukia usually sat and laid his eyes directly on her chai tea. Taking out the minced powder, he looked around him before proceeding to sprinkle it in.
'Fuck.' The gong of the clock announcing it was 7 o clock had Ichigo jump from the tenseness in his muscles, making him put in a little more than he wanted.
Cursing again, Ichigo remembered what Urahara said about the effects being heightened more with a larger dosage. Well he couldn't do anything about it now.
Ichigo put the bag back in his pocket with a slight frown. His long fingers drug through his hair as he contemplated his actions.
This isn't how he wanted them to be together but really, what else could he do?
Giving a sigh, Ichigo decided to stir in the now powdery substance so that it blended well. The caramel brown liquid was already filled to the rim so adding more water to balance it out better was impossible.
"Onii-san?" A soft voice called behind him just as he was done stirring the tea. The startled teenager froze. "What are you doing this early? Do you have early morning practice?" She was referring to Karate. He usually was the last one to come down for breakfast unless he had to leave earlier than usual.
Ichigo straightened the surprise on his face into a slight smirk once he turned around. "Can't I get up a little earlier than normal Yuzu?" He took the small steps between him and his sister and ruffled her hair to distract her. Yuzu beamed at him as always.
"Okay Onii-san." She obliged without suspicion. Ichigo sighed slightly in relief and sat down in his seat beginning to eat, Yuzu sat a few seconds later beside him.
"So..." She began. "Are you and Onee-san really okay?" Yuzu said with an unwavering stare. Ichigo really didn't want to lie to his sister, she was too sweet for that. Instead of answering he took another bite into his tasty French toast.
"Wow Yuzu, did you make this?"
"Onii-san..." He knew he was deflecting but it'd be better than lying to her. Yuzu saw the expression in his eyes and thought best to just let it go. She knew it was something her older siblings had to handle on their own. "Yep I made that!" Yuzu's face became bright and happy once more as she started to ramble about what she put in the French toast to make it taste so good.
When Rukia came down for breakfast, she did not expect Ichigo to be there before her. He was laughing with Yuzu about something she didn't catch. It made her smile though to see him laugh again.
"Hey guys."
"Hi Rukia-nee!" Yuzu giggled, looking back towards her sister. Ichigo stayed focused on his food, not even glancing at her. Rukia slightly frowned at that but schooled her features into a smile so Yuzu wouldn't notice.
"Onii-san! Say hi to Rukia-nee!" Yuzu scolded. Ichigo lifted his head a bit but stayed focused on finishing the last bit of his food. "Hey." He said dryly.
Rukia's face pinched a bit, she walked up to him and swatted the back of his head, this bullshit had to end.
"Hey!" Ichigo yelled, finally turning towards his sister to give a glare.
"Don't hey me!" Rukia yelled, her eyes lighting with a fire. "Look at the person when you greet them you asshole!" Ichigo blushed at her appearance and quickly looked to the side of her face. "Tch, I'll try to remember that next time." He said sarcastically, a dull look on his face. He finished eating the last of his French toast and picked up his plate to go to the kitchen. Rukia lightly grit her teeth at his attitude but somehow kept herself from hitting him again.
Karin came in right at that moment. "Whoa, Ichi-nii got down here before me?" She asked with wide eyes. He glared at her but continued onto the kitchen. Rukia sighed and sat in her own seat, suddenly not very hungry. She still had to eat though to keep a good air around her family.
Rukia looked up to see Yuzu giving her a gentle smile, she smiled back but not as genuinely.
Rukia started eating her food and took sips of her tea in a very lady like manner, something her teacher would have been proud of when she didn't drool over berry boy. She guessed the etiquette classes weren't for nothing.
The tea tasted a little different and smelled sweeter than what she had normally. Even so Rukia shrugged her shoulders and continued to drink guessing they ran out of her chai and poured something else. It tasted great so she couldn't complain.
Karin sighed dramatically as she sat down, scarfing down her food.
"Don't choke." Rukia chuckled.
Karin smirked, "That's what he said."
"Really?" Rukia stared blankly as the dark-haired girl laughed loudly at her own joke.
"Lighten up Rukia-nee. You're always so depressing looking, I just wanted to make you laugh." Rukia's brow quirked, she reached over to the still laughing girl and plugged her nose. Karin started struggling for air but couldn't stop laughing. Rukia and Yuzu started laughing at the sight of their flailing sister still caught in her hysterics, that was until the girl licked Rukia's palm.
"Ugh Karin..." Rukia's tongue came out in a 'bleh' way as she rubbed the saliva on Ichigo who was just walking into the room.
"What the hell Rukia!" He yelled, jumping back seemingly 10 feet and looking at his shirt like there were roaches crawling on him. All of the girls laughed loudly rolling on the floor as Ichigo flipped out when Karin said it was her saliva. Even though he seemed angry he was just as happy as they were. The moment was just like old times.
The day was bright, the birds were chirping, and there was a slight wind whenever it got too hot, it was an overall nice day to walk to school, or do anything outside for that matter. Even though they had a good time back at the house, Ichigo was back to his old attitude of ignoring her existence. Rukia wanted to make a change today so instead of going along with his mopping, she decided to walk beside him and start-up a conversation.
Rukia looked up to her brother, the sun was hitting him perfectly, he looked as handsome as ever. She couldn't help but blush at the tightness in her stomach. She thought these odd feelings were gone by now...
Rukia had been confused to why she would have random days of intense excitement, she had speculated if someone was doing it to her. Ichigo's text message came into mind...
Was he the one?
"So Ichigo." She started out suspiciously, her eyes narrowing though her voice was soft. "Why were you at breakfast so early." Ichigo blinked as if surprised to hear her voice but continued to look forward, his strong jaw clinching slightly.
"Does it matter?"
"Ichi-"
"I was just hungrier than usual, okay?" He pouted slightly as his brows furrowed. Rukia was annoyed by his half-ass-ness in the conversation so she stopped walking.
He stopped after noticing she did and finally looked at her with raised eyebrows. "What?"
Rukia walked up to him calmly, reared back her leg and kicked him hard in the shin.
"WHAT THE HELL RUKIA!" Ichigo yelled, falling forward to rub his aching shin. "You midget bitch! Why can't you learn to respect people taller than you?! Especially since I'm your Ani!"
Rukia took this all calmly, she stared down at him with her arms crossed, her eyes cold and unwavering.
"Well?" Ichigo yelled, his shin still throbbing. He knew he was overreacting but he needed to distract himself from her long beautiful legs leading up to that 'a little too short' skirt, if he moved forward a bit he would be able to see her underwear. He wanted to get her arguing with him so anything sexual would be the last thing on his mind. His libido was more than a little pestering after 2 weeks of not being able to touch her.
"Ichi.." Her eyes turned from their stern look to become hazed and lusted over. Ichigo was slightly confused which showed on his face, until her face heated up and she started rubbing her thighs together, all the while biting her soft pink lips.
"Ru..kia?" She looked away from him in a slightly panicked way.
"N-never mind..." She started walking down the sidewalk again her ponytail swaying behind her. "L-lets go to school.
A slight smirk showed on Ichigo's face, the tea was finally working. It was just a matter of time now, he could tell she was getting frustrated.
In Rukia's homeroom, at her very expensive school, that required a very expensive tuition, there were comfy plush seats with recliners and connected desks, large windows that let in the perfect amount of light, soft carpet, large flat screen TVs, and refreshment/snack machines around every corner. There was even a second level that was led up by bronze tinted steps into a very stocked library. Depending on your class rank and stupidly, privilege, decided which homeroom you would be in. Rukia was in the A rank along with Toshiro, Ran, Orihime, Renji, Tatsuki, and Ulquiorra who were in the same grade as her. After homeroom they switched to a different classroom with normal furniture and size, albeit more upscale and high tech than a normal school.
When Rukia walked to class she was utterly embarrassed. She wished she was anywhere but school. Normally she would talk with Ran, Orihime and Tatsuki but that was exactly what she was trying to avoid doing. Her pussy was aching, she couldn't believe how wet she was, not to mention hot! This was way worse than the first time. Her clothes felt constricting and the friction from the fabric of her shirt through her thin bra made her nipples erect.
"Hey Rukia!" The girl being called for groaned lowly, bowing her head in defeat as her bangs covered her eyes.
Suddenly she felt a heavy hand pat annoyingly on her perfectly ponytailed head, mussing it like she knew people knew she hated. Rukia turned to glare at the red-headed pineapple that was completely oblivious to the reception his actions got.
"Hey Renji." She almost growled. Renji grinned widely down towards her. Observing her figure as his large body hulked over her own. His head turned side to side as if he were trying to decipher a confusing puzzle. Rukia crossed her hands defensively and looked away from his stare. This was not the best moment to talk to any guy.
"Hey, are you okay?" Renji squatted down to her height making her glare even more. She wasn't that short! "You look kind of clammy... are you sick?"
Rukia kicked him in the knee with grace and finesse but her scowl stayed on her face, even as he howled in pain. "Don't squat down at me Idiot!" She would think the guy would learn which buttons not to push after so long of knowing each other! At least he messed with her height unconsciously while her brother did it to tease her.
Replaying what he said in her head, Rukia blushed realizing everyone would notice her predicament. She huffed a sigh and placed a hand to her head. How was she going to last the whole day!?
"Damn Rukia sorry! I was just worried, you're one of my closets friends." Renji said with a puppy dog look. Rukia let her hand fall and her gaze softened.
"Sorry Renji, I think I might be a little sick today." She somewhat lied. At least she hoped she wasn't sick. "I think I'll go to tell Ochi-sensei and go to the restroom or something." Renji gave a small smile which met his brown eyes.
"Okay, if you need any help don't worry about asking." Rukia's brow arched. "I-I mean when you get out of the restroom." Renji sweat-dropped rubbing the back of his head. Rukia rolled her eyes and smiled at her friend, she turned away from him, telling Ochi-sensei where she was going, and tried her best to make a speedy get away out of the classroom before she met up with any other friends, not forgetting to bring along her bag.
Renji watched her as she walked out of the room chuckling with bemusement at her wary walking and sneaky moves. He scratched his head with a sad smile.
Rukia stayed in the bathroom for the first 20 minutes trying to figure out a way she could get it to stop herself. It as in her arousal.
She threw cold water in her face, opened up her uniform jacket and fanned it to air out her body, tried using the restroom, even thought about pleasuring herself but couldn't figure out a way that felt as good as when Ichigo did it. When Rukia looked in the mirror she looked like a mess. Her face was flushed red, her hair was mussed thanks to Renji along with her frustrated motions in it, and her eyes were hazed over like she took a line of coke or something! Her appearance was faaaar from acceptable. Pushed to the limit of her resources, she even tried meditating a bit, which only made her body more attuned to her need.
Rukia was near tears, she was so frustrated! What would Chappy do? Probably gather all of his carrot weapons and defeat Drappy. Chappy's evil twin brother who put a curse on Chappy in last nights episode, forcing him to become gluttonous and eat every one of his fellow bunny's carrots. All of the towns people turned their backs on him until he got Drappy to reverse the spell.
If that fool Ichigo had anything to do with this she would do indescribable things to him that involved a lot of pain. Worse than what Drappy had to go through. She balled her fists and wiped her eyes when another girl came out of the stall, doing the normal hygiene routine and then leaving.
Rukia's eyebrows furrowed as she looked at herself in the mirror with determination. Homeroom would end in 5 minutes and her excuse to her teacher wasn't grand enough for her to be gone the whole time. Rukia straightened her clothes for the umpteenth time. Ochi-sensei was pretty lax especially since Rukia was at the top of her class, but she would still have questions.
"Okay, you can do this Rukia." She had her hands on her hips akimbo and looked like the face of determination, minus the flush and the slight tremble in her legs.
Rukia turned from the mirror and walked out into the hallway, each pass of her thighs causing teasing friction as she bit back a moan.
'You can do this Rukia, you can do this.' She continued to chant in her head. 'Think of Chappy. He could do it, so can you!'
"Ruki!" Rukia cursed loudly in her head, she plastered a guilty smile on her face quickly and turned around slowly towards her friend.
"Hey Ran.." Crap they caught her!
"Where have you been? We've been looking all over for you." Rangiku pouted and crossed her arms over her ample bosom. Tatsuki and Orihime were next to her looking at the small girl with equal question in their eyes.
"Yeah, where were you Rukia?" Tatsuki asked.
'Deep breath.' Rukia tried blocking out the tingling in her stomach as she answered.
"...I was just helping out some of the teachers." Rukia smiled hoping they bought her lie.
"We were just at the staff room, they said they hadn't seen you..." Tatsuki answered her gaze suddenly suspicious.
"That's because I was helping the Library teachers." Rukia said quickly hoping Tatsuki didn't notice.
"Hmm, told you we should've checked there Tatsuki-chan." Orihime said, her finger on her slightly pouting lips.
"Well as long as you're okay baby~." Ran leaped on Rukia and engulfed her head face first into her chest to smell her vanilla perfume. "Mama was so worried." The larger woman whined.
Tatsuki shrugged and started back on to their home room, right as the bell rang.
"Aw didn't make it to class." Orihime said, her hand balled into a fist that she slapped into her palm.
"What class do you have Ruki?" Even though Rukia had told the woman multiple times, she always asked.
Rukia's brow furrowed, "I've already told you before, I have chemistry."
Rangiku shrugged with a smile, ignoring the slight irritation in her voice as she pulled her along down the hallway.
"Aw, that means I won't see you until lunch." Rukia glanced at her friend with one cheek sucked in. Ran was smart but she was a definite airhead. They literally go over this at least once a week.
She let the woman drag her to her class, Orihime and Tatsuki already heading to their own.
Kay, so that's the first part. Tell me what you think, hopefully it didn't confuse too much. My thoughts on it are pretty muddled because I've re-read it so much. You see the return of Renji even though I'm not a fan. I won't make him into something he's not currently in the manga though so don't think I will make him a douche. Hopefully he's getting over Rukia.
Yep Ran's smart! Really smart actually, just lazy sometimes airheaded so she's not at the top of her class like Orihime and Rukia.
Ichigo's contemplating whether he should follow his gut or his conscience. I'm not too sure what the real Ichigo would do in this situation, probably ignore his feelings and the whole situation. BUT since that wouldn't make this fic work but prolong any type of lemon happening, he's going to be OOC for the AU :)
Rukia is her usual independent self, this really isn't a situation she could talk to anyone about anyway. Her attitude has been pretty down the last few chapters, no I'm not changing her persona to be like Ulquiorra's lol though I do believe she can be pretty apathetic. She's just sad because her heart wants her to do one thing while her mind is telling her another. She'll break eventually, pretty soon actually, but she will also stay stubborn.
