If an animal does something, we call it instinct; if we do the same thing for the same reason, we call it intelligence.

Orihime stood there frozen to the spot. She couldn't believe Kikyo Suzumiya, the girl who tormented her years ago, was standing right in front of her with that same evil look and that cocky smile. Suddenly the healer felt defensive less, as if she was a little girl again.

"What? Not even going to say 'hello'. That's no way to treat an old friend." Kikyo placed her hands on her hips and approached Orihime. She smiled once she noticed the girl slightly flinch.

Ulquiorra knew the Onna was scared, he could tell by the way her body had completely frozen up and the look on her face. His body tensed, he didn't like the fact that he was completely useless in helping the women. But there was one thing he could do, comfort her.

Ulquiorra casually jumped out of the brown basket and walked over to the women. Now Ulquiorra wasn't one for giving much 'comfort' to others, but when it came to the Onna he was sure he knew all the right moves and things to do. He found the Onna's hand that was rested on the counter and gave it a small lick before nuzzling his face into it.

He gave a satisfied hum when he felt the Onna relax a bit and turn her palm toward him.

Meanwhile in the basket the others sat there wide eyed and mouths hanging wide open. This was a sight that none of them would ever dreamed of seeing. And frankly one little fox in particular was rather jealous at the moment…

"Um, h-hello Kikyo." Orihime spoke her voice cracking slightly. This was a situation she never believed see would be in. "I-It's nice to se-see you again. It's, um, been awhile hasn't it…?"

Kikyo stood before her now looking the young girl up and down. "It has, hasn't it? So, how's that brother of yours?" Orihime winced slightly, today just wasn't her day. Kikyo knew perfectly well her brother was dead; it was just another thing she used to toy with Orihime's emotions. "Oh, that's right… he's dead. Well I guess it just slipped my mind, again." Kikyo smirked; looks like things were going her way after all and there was no one to protect the little princesses now, not even Tatsuki.

Kikyo's eyes shifted to the basket of animals before returning her attention back to the healer. "Well it seems you and your little mutts caused quit a scene." Kikyo smirked throwing one of her long black pony tails over her shoulder.

Anger flashed through Orihime's eyes. "I'll have you know they're not mutts, their pets." Orihime mumbled out.

The black haired teen cackled. "Yeah, a fox, coyote, and a freaky ass blue kitten are pets." Was the sarcastic reply thrown back at Orihime.

Grimmjow tensed, his fur lifting in anger while a hiss escaped his lips. "Bitch. I'll have you know I was born this way! If anything your face is ugly as fucking hell."

Stark shot Grimmjow a confused look. "Did you just recite Lady Gaga?"

Orihime stared at Kikyo, thinking of what to do to get out of this situation. The only thing she could think of doing was the mature thing; ignore her and resume scanning her groceries.

The healer turned her attention back to the groceries, scanning each item with one hand while the other remained with Ulquiorra's comforting touches and licks.

This angered Kikyo immensely. How dare she ignore her! What happened to the scared little girl who didn't even have the nerve to look her in the eyes? Well there was only one thing to do; insult the bitch till she finally cracked.

"Well bitch if that's how you're going to be I'll have you know two can play at that game!"

Orihime continued to ignore the black haired teen though a few things she spit out did hurt her immensely. It was odd to her really, how much Kikyo reminded her of Loly. Loly and Kikyo looked identical! Although, Kikyo was taller than the abusive arrancar.

After what felt like an eternity of scanning grocery's she was finally able to pay and collect her recite and change.

The orange haired teen turned to Kikyo who was still spitting out rude comments. Putting on her trade mark smile the one that was fake. "Well Kikyo it was nice to see you again, and I hope to see you again." She lied. 'Hopefully not.' She thought as a side note.

Grabbing Ulquiorra and her groceries she quickly left the store before the bully could say another word.

As soon as she walked out the store her face fell to one of sorrow and tears feel from her face.

All the animals stared at the girl, their faces falling into frowns. "Shit, she's upset now." Grimmjow mumbled out.

"What do we do?" Stark said. He really hated to see the girl crying. And he wanted to help her anyway possible.

Noticing her pet's stares, Orihime quickly wiped the tears away with the back of her hand before giving them a reassuring smile. "I'm sorry, don't worry though, I'm fine."

Ichigo stared at his friend with soft eyes. "This is the first time I've ever seen Orihime so upset…"

Ulquiorra shot Ichigo a glare. "You idiot, this isn't the first time she's gotten upset. She just hides it by smiling to all of you and saying she's fine. And you and your friend's automatically believe her."

Before Ichigo could reply Orihime began to speak once again. "Hmm. I feel in the mood for ice cream! How about you guys? Would you like to get some ice cream?"

"Ice cream?" the three arrancars questioned at the same time looking at the girl with looks that clearly said they had no idea what the hell that was.

Orihime giggled. "Well I guess you guys don't know what that is seeing as your all animals. But trust me, you'll love it. Ice cream is to die for!"

With that said Orihime began to skip over to the direction of the ice cream shop with a happy smile on her face.

Ichigo sighted. "Well, at least she's happier now…"

Ulquiorra shot Ichigo a look that clearly said 'idiot' before he snuggled himself deep within the baskets blanket.

(^~^)

Upon arriving at the ice cream shop Orihime made a squealing noise before opening the door, allowing the cool air from within the shop to hit them. This truly was one of the only places she liked to go after having a bad day. The best part was she had become friends with the owner over the years so she defiantly knew he would have no problem with her bringing her furry friends into the shop.

"Fuck its cold as hell." Grimmjow hissed out. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

The young teen approached the counter with a big smile on her face, staring down at all the different ice cream flavors trying to decide to get who what.

A young man with dirty blonde hair walked out from the kitchen smiling at Orihime. "Hello Orihime! I haven't seen you around lately." He stopped directly in front of the young girl, propping his elbows up on the counter. "So," he said smiling brightly," what can I get for you today."

Orihime put a finger on her chin and looked over each ice cream flavor. "Hmm…Let's see. I'll take my usual. And can I have… double chocolate chunk, Mint chocolate chip, cookie dough ice cream, and strawberry sherbet ice cream all in tiny cups." Jordan looked at Orihime with a bright smile. "Getting a little treat for your special little friends there I see."

The healers shock her head up and down. "Yep!" she spoke enthusiastically. Jordan gave her a slight nod."Well that's very sweet of you Orihime; you can go grab a seat I'll bring the ice cream out to you."

The teen nodded her head and said a small thank you before going to the round pink table that was in the corner of the room.

Orihime slide into her seat and placed the basket onto the table to allow them to get out. 'Damn, I'm freezing my berries off in here!' Stark said running to Orihime for warmth.

The young healer giggled at the young coyotes antics. "Aw you're cold aren't you?" she said picking him up and snuggling his cheek onto hers. "Well were just going to have to fix that aren't we?"

Stark blushed massively beneath his chocolate fur and snuggled his face even closer to her warm check. All the other animals shot glares of jealousy. 'Sneaky bastard.' Grimmjow and Ichigo both muttered out.

The clearing of someone's throat brought their attention up to Jordan who stood there holding five small cups of ice cream. "Here you go 'Hime five small cupped ice creams just like you ordered!"

The healer smiled up at the waiter before grabbing her wallet from her purse. "So how much do I owe you?" she said while counting out a few ones.

Jordan waved his hand up and down. "Oh there's no reason to pay me. Their on the house!" he smiled brightly at the girl while she began to fluster up. "Oh no, I could never do that, I can pay for them."

Grimmjow scoffed. 'Damn, can't she take a free hand out?' Ichigo growled and walked towards Grimmjow.
'Shut up Grimmjow, she's just being nice!'

Orihime heard Ichigo's growl and immediately turned her head towards him. Jordan took this opportunity to quickly escape before the girl could insist on paying anymore.

"Whats wrong foxy-Chan?" she spoke with a small pout. "Why are you upset, you like your ice cream don't you?"

'Shit,' Ichigo though 'I can't upset her.'

'It certainly wouldn't be the first time.' Remarked Ulquiorra who was licking at his mint ice cream with a contain look on his face.

Ichigo let out a low growl. 'Damn you Ulquiorra.' The espada choose to ignore the comment and continue to eat his ice cream.

The fox looked up at Orihime and mustered up the best smile that a fox could make, she was obviously pleased with the answer because she gave a big smile in reply and continued to eat her ice cream…if you could call it ice cream at least –shudder-.

Grimmjow stared at his double chocolate chunk a confused look on his small face. 'What the hell is this?' Grimmjow questioned smelling the cold substance.

'Ice cream.' The others, minus Orihime, replied automatically.

'Oh, that clears everything up now.' Was the sarcastic reply, 'bastards.' The blue kitten stuck his face into the bowl and began to lap up the sticky liquid with his tongue. His eyes widened, he'd never tasted something so amazing in his life! He couldn't get enough! He kept lapping the deliciously cream faster and faster.

But then, suddenly Grimmjow felt an odd chill run through his head. The chill wasn't painful but it wasn't great either. His paws quickly shot up to his head to clutch it. But the loss of standing on four legs cause the kitten to tumble face first into the ice cream bowl, covering his fur into the sticky substance.

"Oh no, Sexta-chan!" Orihime gasped and before she knew what happened she dropped Stark into his own bowl of cookie dough ice cream and spilt hers all over herself. Her eyes widened, not only did she poor ice cream onto herself but now she had two ice cream covered animals to take care of, oh boy this is going to be a long night.

:-:-:

Orihime slowly opened the front door and stepped in. Today hadn't been one of her happiest but their stop to the ice shop sure did brighten her mood up. But now she had two dirty pets to clean and all the day's activities had worn her out.

Orihime turned her attention back to the basket holding the animals. Most were asleep, but Sexta-san was wide awake trying to clean the ice cream out of his blue fur. Orihime's eyes softened a bit. "Sexta-San," the kitten looked up giving her his full attention. "I really hate to do this to you but I'm not going to be able to give you a bath till tomorrow…"

Grimmjow's face scrunched up in disgusted. It wasn't the idea of getting wet that made him disgusted, it was the fact that he would have to sleep with stick, melted ice cream in his fur.

Orihime felt bad for not giving the kitten a bath, but she was just too tired. "I'm sorry…it's just…I'm tired from today. I hope you're not mad at me…" she mumbled bowing her head.

"Although," she said lifting her head once again catching the blue kitten's attention. "To make it up to you, you can sleep in my bed tonight. If you want to that is…"

Grimmjow's eyes went wide. 'Hell to the fucking yes!' Could this day get any better? First he kicks the Shinigami's but now he gets to sleep in the same bed as the woman!

He looked up at the woman who stared right back at him, waiting to know the feline's response.

Her face broke into a wide smile when the kitten began to shake his head enthusiast. "So do you forgive me? I promise first thing I'll do in the morning is give you a nice warm bath!"

Grimmjow continued to shake his head while thinking of the women bathing in the tube with him, her naked body glistening with drops of water that slid down her curves.

"Well I'm glad you forgive me Sexta-San! Now, all we have to do is make up a bed on the couch for the others seeing as their already asleep! But firsts I'm going to go change!" with that she set down the basket, carefully so she wouldn't wake anyone and left to her room, leaving Grimmjow all alone to think up all his steamy fantasies that involved a certain orange headed healer.

:-:-:

As fast as she left she had returned. The sight of her made Grimmjow choke on nothing but air; this was the sexiest sight he'd ever seen in his life! Nothing and I mean nothing could top this.

Orihime stood in front of Grimmjow wearing a pair of silk poke-a-dot shorts that didn't even reach mid thigh and a tight tank top. But what truly made this sight so breath taking was the fact that the pajamas were the exact same color of his hair.

A very low pleasurable growl escaped from his stomach. The woman was lucky because if he wasn't in the damned animal body he would have already pounced on top of her, pinning her to the ground.

His hormones were ragging. Oh how he wished he was in his body at the moment. He silently cursed the stupid clog wearing scientist but also thanked the sky for his luck today.

While Grimmjow was lost in thought Orihime had fetched a pile of blankets and began to sit them on the coach.

The basket was lifted back up and brought over to the couch where Orihime sat it back down and began to carefully take each pet out as carefully as she could so they would not wake up.

With that complete she sat the basket beside the couch before reaching down and picking the blue kitten up.

The young healer cradled the kitten to her chest and walked back to her room.

'I can get fuckin' used to this…' Grimmjow thought snuggling deeper into Orihime's chest all the while purring.

Her room was fairly good seized and the walls were painted avocado green. But what caught the kitten's attention was the bed that looked very plush and soft.

"Alright," Orihime said setting the kitten on the bed. "This is my room!"

Orihime walked over to the bed and set Grimmjow on top of the green comforter and turned off the lights before also climbing into the warm sheets.

When she laid her head down Grimmjow immediately pounced onto her and snuggled himself into her. "Nighty night Sexta-San." The healer said sleepily. "I'm –yawn- really happy you and the others are here…" The girls breathing grew heavy; indicating she had already fell asleep.

Grimmjow stared down at the young woman, eyes softened. "Yeah…you're not the only one who's happy…"

:-:-:-

"Come on kitty, it's time to wake up." Grimmjow made a noise in the back of his throat that resembled a groan.

'It's too damned early…' He thought with another kitty like groan. "Don't you want a bath Sexta-san?"

The six's ears perked up at the mention of a bath. He did need one, so it wouldn't hurt to get up…

Grimmjow sat up stretching his body before he looked up at Orihime with sleepy eyes. "Ready?" she questioned. "Sorry it's so early, I just figured it would be easier to give you a bath before the others wake up."

Grimmjow held back a growl. 'Of course those bastards get to sleep longer.'

Orihime happily picked up the blue kitten and carried him to her small bathroom. The water was already drawn so now all she had to do was put the kitten into the warm bubbly water.

Orihime keeled down onto both knees and started to lower Grimmjow down into the water. "Come on kitty, it does OK don't be afraid of the water. It's not going to hurt you."

Grimmjow wanted to burst out laughing at the girls antics. It was ironic how she was trying to calm him, an espada, down. Besides, it's not like he needed to be calmed down, the water didn't scare him in anyway.

The orange headed female began to pour small amounts of water onto the blue kitten causing his hair to stick to his body.

Grimmjow looked up and smirked, he had a pretty nice view at the moment since the woman was leaning over the tube trying to reach for the bottle of strawberry shampoo.

Orihime made a grunting noise and tried to reach even farther over the tubes edge, her fingers barely brushing against the container.

'Shit can this get any better...' Grimmjow thought staring right at the woman's cleavage that was being barely concealed by her blue tank top. He felt really odd at the moment, almost as if something within him is bubbling and ready to explode.

That's when it happened, Orihime grabbed the bottle when a loud 'pop' noise erupted throughout the room and a purple smoke filled the bathroom momentarily before clearing out.

Orihime coughed loudly and opened her eyes back up. She instantly froze in shock. Not even an inch and a half away from her face was a naked Grimmjow who stared back at Orihime just as shocked.

But the shock didn't last long because at the sight of her heavy blush, his face broke out into a full smirk.

"Like what you see 'Hime."
