I don't own TMM! Bloom, Tomahawk, I'm sorry, alien guys only! I re-read the instructions and the chapter said noting, but I do believe the description does in fact say aliens.
It had been another obnoxious day at the café, and more likely than not she would run into Kisshu on the way home. He had been very persistent lately.
"Hey, Kitten!" he greeted the red-head right on cue.
"What do you want, Kisshu?" Ichigo asked exhausted, continuing onward towards home.
"Come on, Kitten, you can at least pretend you're happy to see me," he said and flew to catch up with her.
"It'll be all the more special if I ever actually am."
"Kitten, what's gotten you down?"
"Work!" You! School! Life! Everything!" she shouted.
"Whoa, Ichigo, everything will be okay," he said, attempting to comfort her.
"No! I'm done with this nonsense!"
"Ichigo, just stop and listen to yourself," he said calmly, in a slow, steady voice.
"Why? Why should I?!"
"Because you're not reasoning, and you went off at my saying 'hi', you can usually put up with me for your walk home."
Ichigo paused for a second, and looked down in shame, "I'm sorry, this is just a bad week." She instantly regretted that, "Crap, I shouldn't have said that!"
"What's wrong?"
"I might as well tell you," she said and plopped down on a bench, placing a hand on her cheek. "Ryou's always been a slave driver, and I've learned to deal with that and balance everything else among it. What's really been bad is, well you don't want to hear about it, I'm sure."
"No, I want to hear, I want to make it better."
"But you can't!" she cried, suddenly starting to sob. He kissed her neck, and kept placing kisses up until her finally reached her lips, where he stopped. It was like he was trying to kiss her tears away. "M-Ma-saya is moving, and he wants to break up with me, and he didn't even tell me! I heard it from three different people and he didn't say anything to me about it!"
"Shh, shh," he said in an attempt to calm her. She just sobbed into his shirt for a good ten minutes.
"I'm sorry, Kisshu."
"For what? Being upset? If you ever need me just give me a call, I'm always there for you. I love you."
"K-Kisshu," she said, her voice breaking.
"I know, you still love him -"
"I-I don't want to, but I think I-I," she blushed, "I think I love you too." They kissed and when they finally broke away, Kish teleported her home, and she gave him a quick kiss good night, looking forward to tomorrow.
