D- Dates
Once a year certain dates come super important to every male in relationships. They must please their girlfriend on every holiday, birthday, anniversary, and pretty much any kind of celebration they could think of. The day can either go amazing or bad in a matter of seconds. So in Karakura Town today is a special day. White Day has finally arrived here. Afte Valentine's Day the girls all wait to see if they would get presents back from the one guy that they admired. Ranging from flowers to expensive gifts, and let's not forget the expensive dinner date at the end. Wallets cry from the constant money spending as it loses bills in a matter of minutes. Ichigo Kurosaki always felt sympathy towards the guys since he never dealt with this pain. He watched Ishida scramble every single occasion finding something perfect for Inoue. After a year of dating, Ichigo always questioned how the condescending, sewing enthusiast could never find a gift for his lovely girlfriend. Ichigo also felt bad for Renji!Now that is a mystery how the red pineapple could get a girlfriend. Tatsuki and Renji have been going after each other for almost two years before they finally announced a relationship between each other. Everyone had each other except a certain orange teen and a black-haired midget.
'Ugh, why do people even bother celebrating this holiday? There's no point.' Ichigo casually walks down the busy shopping districts in Karakura with Ishida and Renji. The three males walk around looking for gifts to give on White Day. Ichigo was dragged from his room this morning while Rukia Kuchiki slept on the bed. This brought on a day of interrogation for the tall teen from the other two.
"So Strawberry I didn't know you had a thing with Kuchiki? Last time I asked, you said you two were just friends.." Renji chuckles as Ishida begins questioning Ichigo about the incident they saw this morning. "There is nothing between us! We are just friends, nothing more. My dumbass of a father threw out all the futons before Rukia got there. I felt bad and let her take my bed." Ichigo began turning red as he went on with his answer. "Yeah, yeah. We heard that answer before idiot. Only talk to me when you two become an item." Ichigo and Ishida shrug and walk away from Renji ignoring his protests. Seperating from each other, all the guys go on seperate routes towards stores that will hopefully have the right gifts.
Ichigo stares at the entrance of the door. He is already cringing in horror looking how childish this store is. He can already see many kids running around laughing. Exhaling the breath he held for a long time, Ichigo finally opened the door to the most torturous store in the world: Chappy World. Walking down each aisle, Ichigo can see all the Chappy merchandise he had already bought for this midget. Finally he spots something he knows for sure that she will love. 'Maybe with this present I could also show her how I finally feel. I just hope it all goes good, or else I'm kicking that midget to the ground. I love her way too much for this. Okay, stop Kurosaki. Stop being such a pansy.' Getting the gift, Ichigo ran out of the store hoping he still had some humanity left.
Back at the Kurosaki House, Rukia Kuchiki slowly opens one eye. Seeing the sun, she closes her eyes back up and rolls over. Confused by where she is at, she stretches her arms out and feels around the bed. Noticing an indent next to her body, she realizes that she slept over at Ichigos' house. Slightly disappointed of him not being there to greet her, Rukia rolls out of bed and goes down stairs to watch some tv. Having the Kurosaki house all to herself was a relief for Rukia. As much as she loves Ichigo's family, she enjoys seeing it empty and quiet. She still felt slightly annoyed with last night when Isshin decided to leap towards Ichigo with his foot stuck out going towards her and Ichigo. Unfortunately, Ichigo was not prepared and began flying towards the wall. The two males of the house began fighting and rolling around on the ground. The girls ignored them as they prepared dinner for the night. Sighing at the memory, Rukia looks for her new cellphone that Ichigo bought her last month. Texting Ichigo asking where he is, Rukia sets the phone down and gets ready for the day. Rukia hears an alert noise from the phone and sees a message from Ichigo. Looking back at the clock, Rukia begins the shower and gets prepared for something nice.
(Three hours later)
Ichigo is dragging Rukia along the busy streets. Every few seconds he looks down seeing their hands together, blushing at the scene. He thinks about what Renji and Ishida talked about either and began scowling. He knew that everyone pushed for a relationship, but he wanted to do things at his own speed. Ichigo knew one day he would finally have the guts to confess, and today was the day. He waited seventeen long months thinking and he finally decided that Rukia was the one he wanted to start a relationship with. For crying out loud, Ichigo never had a relationship before! So he decided that the midget would be the first and only. They already spent everyday together and slept over at each other's house every weekend. Why not seal the deal? Ichigo could already feel this one decision being a successful one. Now if only could Ichigo bring the right words up to his mouth and speak it.
Arriving at the restaurant, Ichigo finds a perfect table in the end of the diner and pushed the midget into the booth. Calling out orders smooth and nicely, Ichigo got the night going right for him and the midget. But with everyday, Ichigo did suffer some pain in his shins. "What was that for Strawberry? You know I could order my own food!" Rukia hissed so she wouldn't be heard by other people. "Don't worry about it, I just wanted little talking with the waiter. Can we keep this night going calm with little arguing, please? I just want this night to be great for you.. Is that too much to ask?" Ichigo began looking around to avoid the violet eyes that pierced him. Grabbing his hand, Rukia has a small smile and replies, "It's okay Ichigo I like this. I appreciate that you are trying. Now that I remember correctly, do I get a present on this lovely day?" Laughing, Ichigo shakes his head back and forth watching the midget scowl in front of him and grip his hand harder than necessary. "OW! What the hell midget?! I guess you don't need the suprise I was going to give you!" Ichigo grumbled lowly and pulled his hand back. After that incident, the two stayed silent til the food arrived.
After the food was eaten, Ichigo paid for the meal and took Rukia's hand to lead her to the central park. This park held many memories for the pair. This is the place they first met each other. This was the spot that ignited their close friendship, and soon to ignite a new future together. The snow covered the whole park in a light white colored blanket. The snow illuminated Rukia's black hair and violet eyes. Ichigo grew hot as he realized that the time was about to come. Feeling around in his pocket, Ichigo safely held the box in his left hand. Taking a deep breath, Ichigo stopped Rukia and turned her around. "Okay midget, I can't do this anymore. Let me get it all out before you interrupt me. We have been friends since day one four years ago. I know back then we didn't know much and just talked as if we knew each other forever. I knew we had this certain bond that no one else could of had. When you left, I felt different. I didn't know if I could keep up with the world without you. I guess what I'm saying is that I need you, and I think I might be falling for you. Now don't you think I will ever say this in public. So let's hear the comments about this one.." look king straight into the boy's eyes, Rukia begins to smile and pull his head down to her level. "Wow Strawberry head, I didn't know your mouth could ramble on that much. I wouldn't make fun of you. You are brave Ichigo for saying that. I asked the girls at school and they said their boyfriends never confessed before. I accept your feelings, because I believe I reciprocate them." Blushing like a red tomato, Rukia slowly backs away but fails miserably. Ichigo pulls her back tightly to his body and let's his head rest on her tiny shoulder. Tilting his head to the side, Ichigo slowly whispers into her ear. "Good thing you agreed midget, but it wouldn't matter because all of your opinions would of been rejected."
Chapter 4 finished! I got to admit this chapter was quite challenging when I couldn't think of what to write about. But overall, I am actually happy with this chapter. Yeah no kissing, I like kissing mucho between Ichigo and Rukia, but I liked how cute I made them. Used a couple of Bleach quotes, hope you could find them! Thank you for reading and reviewing. Chapter 5 will be out soon. Cheers c:
