"Kish! Stop! This isn't going to work!-"

Looking back at her, he smirked, and held her hand even tighter. "Trust me on this, Ichigo."

Frowning, she blushed, and opened her mouth to protest but the attractive looking alien shushed her. "Come on, Ichigo. It wouldn't hurt. Besides, I'm sure you humans need a certain amount of fresh air to remain sane. After all, I don't think being locked in a room is healthy for such a pretty young lady like yourself. Heh. Am I right, eh?"

That signature smirk of his remained plastered onto his lips and his golden orbs shook of complete excitement.

This was it. Today is the day that he was finally going to make his kitten smile and he had assembled the perfect plan.

Earlier, once it was noon, Kisshu had literally dragged the girl that had strawberry colored hair out of her room by forcibly grabbing onto her hand, and they were now walking outside. The sun was brightly shining down on them and the two were walking through this mesmerizing forest. It was so beautiful. Luscious trees were scattered all over and surprisingly the forest seemed rather organized. Lovely harmonies could be heard from the insects that were hidden in the trees and the grass that surrounded them was so vibrant.

Ichigo felt tears form in her eyes and she rapidly struggled to escape from Kisshu's grasp. "Kish...STOP! I can't...I can't...hold your hand..."

Hearing the intense pain in her voice, caused him to cringe, and he hated on how she emphasized "your".

He fully knew that she meant she could only ever hold that tree huger's hand.

Well...

Kisshu was going to change that.

He only tighten his grip on her, restraining her even more, and the green haired alien pulled her body closer towards him.

His calm but serious eyes stared down into hers and he snaked his free arm around her waist.

They locked eyes and their faces were just inches apart.

Ichigo felt herself blushing but she fought the blush and she stubbornly looked the other way, avoiding his gaze.

Her trembling eyes automatically shut, feeling a tremendous amount of agonizing pain inside, and she tried to hold back her sobs. "Kisshu...please. I...can't right now."

He gave her a sympathetic look and frowned as he felt like he was at a total lost for words.

Gosh... He hated to see her like this.

It did such cruel things to his heart.

"Ichigo-"

"I'm SORRY KISSHU, but LET GO OF ME!"she suddenly screamed hysterically while sobbing, interrupting him, and she broke the grip he had on her.

It's true, he could have easily restrained her, but this time he let her go on purpose...

He then frowned and that's when she turned around and sprinted away from him into a deeper part of the forest...

Panic surged through him and his eyes grew wide. "ICHIGO!"

'Damn it! She'll get lost!' he thought frustrated and the alien scowled.

He flew after her.

Ichigo sobbed the entire time she ran and...

...she never looked back at him.

Not even once.
