A/N: I know I've been way off with updates but between being away for a while and school. Sigh I'm trying, anyway here's chapter 3.
Ulquiorra was hiding under the bed with the towel he had wrapped around his body tightly. His ears were flat against his head and his tail flicked back in the forth in panic. That was something he really shouldn't have to see. Tears filled his eyes at the sheer embarrassment of the whole thing. His entire body went still when he heard the door squeak open and voices could be heard.
"You ass I told you we should've just waited." Ichigo yelled.
"Are you kidding me?" Grimmjow yelled, "It's as much as your fault as mine." he growled.
Ichigo just scowled before muttering a 'whatever' under his breath. "Just find the kid would ya." Grimmjow said.
Ichigo through a glare at the other while he searched the for neko. The kid must be traumatized right now Ichigo thought. He looked everywhere and he still couldn't find him. Grimmjow was sitting in one of the chairs with his chin in his hand as he watched Ichigo fret around trying to find Ulquiorra.
"He's not in here." Ichigo said simply, turning back to Grimmjow. He just shrugged before standing up. There was a loud mewl before Ulquiorra scrambled from under the bed holding his tail to his chest.
"Hah...I found' em." Grimmjow snickered. The smile on his face faded when he noticed the neko crying quietly.
"Can you not be an asshole today." Ichigo stated as he walked over to Ulquiorra to help the poor boy up off the ground.
"Shh it's okay Ulquiorra it was just an accident...I'm sure." Ichigo cooed as he gave a pointed look at Grimmjow.
Grimmjow sighed before scratching the back of head, "I didn't mean to promise." he stated.
Ichigo helped Ulquiorra to the bed and sat the boy down. He noticed that the neko was shaking and realized that the boy wasn't even dressed. "I'll be back." he said as he walked back over to the door.
Ulquiorra watched Ichigo leave, now he was stuck in the room with Grimmjow. He took a chance to peek at Grimmjow and blushed when the other was staring dead at him. Grimmjow smirked at the boys embarrassment, he couldn't help but think the kitten was cute.
"Um sorry for stepping on your tail." he said after a while. Ulquiorra looked up again to stare at Grimmjow's blue eyes, he was rubbing his tail absently.
"N...No it's fine...doesn't hurt that much anymore." Ulquiorra replied softly.
"Why were you under the bed in the first place?" Grimmjow asked. He already knew why the kid was under there, he just wanted to see that flustered face.
"Well um...y...you an...I...didn't mean to...I got cold...an Ichi-"Haha okay no need to stress yourself out...uh we shouldn't have done that in the first place...it was a bit rude when we have a guest." Grimmjow said sheepishly.
"It's fine...I shouldn't have intruded." Ulquiorra said.
Grimmjow stared at Ulquiorra trying to figure out how an innocent boy like him can end up on the streets like this. He could tell from the recent reactions that Ulquiorra showed that something happened to him in the past that he was really scared of.
"Alright here we go...these might not fit but it's something." Ichigo said as he walked back into the room his arms full with clothes.
Ulquiorra thankfully took the clothes from Ichigo and waited for the two to leave so he could dress.
While Ulquiorra got dressed Grimmjow and Ichigo headed downstairs to the kitchen. Grimmjow took a seat by the island while Ichigo started to cook some breakfast for them. He watched the berry cook a smile forming on his face as the boys hips started to swing at the music that was playing from the radio.
"So who were you talking to?" Grimmjow asked suddenly remembering the phone call that the other was having.
Ichigo looked over his shoulder at Grimmjow, "Ah it was just friend of mine that wanted to come over." he explained.
Grimmjow let his chin fall into his hand, "Mhm so why was your face so pinched up." he asked.
Ichigo flipped the pancake in the pan before flopping it onto a plate with the others. "He wants to come over...and stay for while...college friend." Ichigo said.
"Mhm...right anyway so I'm guessing Ulquiorra's staying with me then?" Grimmjow asked.
"Yah." Ichigo confirmed. "And I know you have a lot of work to do at home but I don't want him to stay here when Re—my friend get's here." he added.
Grimmjow watched and took notice that something was up with Ichigo. From the look on his face it seemed to him that Ichigo wasn't very fond of this so called 'friend'. He was going to say something else but Ulquiorra showed up.
Grimmjow couldn't help the smile on his face when he got a look at the kid. He had on a pair of Ichigo's gray sweatpants and way to big black shirt. Half of it falling off his shoulder, he cautiously walked into the kitchen, his nose twitching at the smell of food.
"Um thank you for the clothes." he said softly. Ichigo smiled warmly before picking up the plate of pancakes and setting them on the table. Ulquiorra walked over and sat down, keeping his gaze on the pancakes. He couldn't remember the last time he actually ate something and not just scraps of food. His stomach growled loudly and he could here Grimmjow chuckling next to him.
"If your hungry just dig in." Ichigo said as he set an empty plate in front of Ulquiorra. Ulquiorra didn't waste any time piling pancakes onto his plate and scarfing them down. Grimmjow and Ichigo watched in amusement as the neko ate all of the pancakes. The two wasn't that surprised when the plate was once again empty.
Thank you for the food." Ulquiorra thanked a she pushed the plate away.
"It's my pleasure." Ichigo said with a smile as he took the plate up and put in the sink to wash.
Grimmjow scratched his chin, "So how'd you end up on the street?" he asked bluntly. Ichigo whirled around, "Grimmjow that's not something you just ask out loud." he growled.
"Well you said that we ask about it anyway." Grimmjow argued. Ichigo huffed before wiping his hands on a towel. "Yah not like that you idiot."
Ulquiorra chose to speak up, "No it's fine...really." he started. He explained to them what happened so long ago, with his parents selling him to Aizen. He talked about how he ended up how he is, and how he and the others escaped. When he was done speaking he looked up to see Ichigo with a sympathetic look on his face, and Grimmjow had his face set into a scowl.
"How old are you again?" Grimmjow asked.
"Um...I'm twenty." Ulquiorra answered.
"How can people...i just don't understand how-"Grimmjow chill what matters now is that we have him and he's safe." Ichigo said, interrupting Grimmjow's oncoming rant.
"Right." Grimmjow muttered under his breath. Ulquiorra's ears perked up at the sound of something vibrating.
"Your phone is ringing...I think." he said softly his head turned towards the stairs. Ichigo stared at Ulquiorra before walking up the steps to answer his phone. Moments later he came back down with a scowl on his face and gauze in his hands.
"Something wrong." Grimmjow asked.
"My friend is on the way here." Ichigo answered. Grimmjow sighed before getting up, "I'm taking it's time for us to leave."
Ichigo nodded, "Pretty much but let me re-wrap your arm." he said looking at Ulquiorra. Said person held out his arm as Ichigo took the re-tinted gauze off, and carefully re-wrapped it with fresh ones. Once he was done Ichigo gave a bright smile before scratching the back of the neko's making Ulquiorra purr softly.
"Your a cute little thing." he said, laughing a bit. Ulquiorra's face went red at the comment before ducking his head.
"Alright alright time to go...i got of ass of work to do at home plus we need to get you some clothes." Grimmjow said as he rubbed a hand over his face. He went upstairs to find his shirt and shoes while Ichigo cleaned up the rest of the kitchen.
"Um do you have my hat?" Ulquiorra asked softly. Ichigo turned back around from the sink, "Er was it a black hat?" he asked. Ulquiorra nodded his head, "It's kind of important to me." he stated.
"Oh...of course um it should be upstairs I'll go grab it." Ichigo said as he hopped upstairs.
Ulquiorra was now alone in kitchen. He had time now to just think about the situation he was in now. These two people so kindly took him in and gave him food. Clothes a bath, and Ichigo even wrapped his arm up. The last time someone showed him such compassion was the nice green-haired lady that gave him that hat to cover his ears. To finally not worry about where he was going to eat the next day or where he was going to sleep was a big relief. He could finally get his life together.
And thanks to Ichigo and Grimmjow he could start now.
I'm honestly am very sorry for not updating this. I feel really bad and I promise to start updating a bit faster. So here is Chapter three hope u like review!
