B- Beach

Summer is rolling hot in Karakura Town during this time of year. Residents are either inside or outside, both suffering from the blistering heat. The house being overheated made the day quite uncomfortable for Ichigo Kurosaki and Rukia Kuchiki. Wearing nothing but shorts, Ichigo can still feel the heat radiating off his body. 'Why must this house feel like I'm residing in Hell? I need to cool down fast or everyone will get hurt in two seconds. Where the hell is the midget? She hasn't made any remarks yet..' Ichigo begins to slowly tredge up the stairs to look for the raven haired girl. Rounding the corner, Ichigo finally makes it to his room and immediately opend the door without warning. As the door creaks open, a pair of violet eyes widen and meet amber surprised amber orbs. Time seems to stop and the temperature slowly rise in the room. "What the hell are you doing on my bed midget?!" screamed Ichigo. Steam slowly poured out of Ichigo's ears as he glared down towards the small figure on his bed with his laptop. "Huh? Oh I'm doing what you humans call sending an e-mail. I just sent one to Arisawa, Chad, and a few other students about the big trip Keigo Asano is putting together at the beach today!" Rukia beamed as she clicked the send button on the computer screen. Rukia kept playing around on the computer a few more minutes until Ichigo swiped the computer away as fast as a shunpo. "Rukia, stop looking at that damn rabbit on my laptop! It is not cute at all, and don't you dare give me the puppy eyes. You know that it will not work this time.." Oh how Ichigo wish he could stay true to his words..

Waves rolled along the coast. The sea salt could be smelled all over the beach. Over the beach hills a group of teens can be seen as they prepare an area to relax. Even though the group consisted of high school students, shinigamis from Soul Society joined the group for the day of relaxation. Everyone was getting along just fine as if they were a group of friends that known each other for years. "Last one to the water has to battle Captain Kenpachi when we get back to Soul Society!" Madarame yells out loud and starts dashing towards the water. Every shinigami's eyes expanded into sizes of saucers at that statement and began dashing like mad bulls to the water. Ayasegawa leaps beautifully in the water first, followed by a big splash by Madarame. Next comes Orihime and Rangiku who both skip along through the waves. Keigo and Chad follow the girls close. Rukia easily makes it to the water with her Chappy floatation that Ichigo bought earlier. Last but not least, towards the far end of the beach are two bright haired men fighting each other to the ocean. Ichigo and Renji trip and tackle each other to the ground to try and not be last. "You will not win you damn Strawberry!" Yelled Renji as he got said strawberry in a headlock. "Not if I have anything to say Pineapple head!" Ichigo screams as he flips Renji onto his back. Ten minutes later Ichigo crawls to the ocean with a bleeding Renji on his back. The two bright haired shinigami slowly float down the ocean like two dead bodies being dragged by the hands of death.

As the minutes passed, everyone was enjoying the cool, blue water that kept the temperature slightly cooler. Towards the west end, most of the group was splashing around and playing some games. But on the other side, we can see our two favorite shinigami isolated from the group. Rukia Kuchiki was relaxing in the circular tube with Chappy all over it. Below the water though was a figure swimming right below her. Looking at their prey, the orange haired creature started to swim closer and closer to their target. *SPLASH* "ICHIGO!" Rukia screamed as she resurfaced from the deep ocean. Laughing at his success, Ichigo swims behind Rukia again and wraps his arms around her waist. "I'm sorry midget, it was just perfect to come and attack. Your reaction was priceless." chuckling through his explanation, Ichigo distracts Rukia and starts walking deeper and deeper. "Where are we going Ichigo? You know I can't reach the bottom, idiot.." Rukia commented even though she knew Ichigo was not listening. "I just want to relax, so just cool down and enjoy the water midget." Responding to the midget's comment. Ichigo kept walking deeper into the water until it reached his neck. Rukia stayed still and kept her arms wrapped around his neck. Finally after staying in the deep end, Rukia lets go of Ichigo and starts to swim towards the shore. Ichigo begins to swim after her and attempts to catch up with Rukia.

The sun begins to set at Karakura beach and everyone slowly moves away from the cooling water. Laying on all the towels and blankets, the gang start to watch the stars shine bright onto the night sky. Tatsuki shows Orihime and Rangiku some of the constellations in the sky. "If that one is the Big Dipper, could there be one with other supplies for cooking as constellations?" questioned Orihime. Tatsuki and Rangiku start laughing at the question and fail to answer it. Overall, the majority of the group stay pretty quiet with their own small conversations with each other. "Did you have a fun day midget?" Ichigo asked, but soon noticed that said midget was slowly drifting to sleep. "Huh? Oh yeah it was really fun. Thanks Ichi." Smiling at the answer, Ichigo scoots closer to Rukia and wraps an arm around her body. " I'm glad you liked it, maybe next time when you come back it will be just you and me." Ichigo stated rather confidently. Thankfully for him, the darkness his the blush on hid cheeks. Surprising him and herself, Rukia kisses Ichigo on the cheek and closes her eyes saying, "That would be great, let's do it.".
