Encounters -
Ichigo was not the type of girl who was jealous or clingy, she really didn't have any insecurities and if she did she didn't show them. So why was it that one nice Friday afternoon that changed?
Well here's how it happened….
ooXooXooXoo
I walked down the streets from my apartment to get the store. Kish had somehow managed to demolish all the yummy stuff we had! It's not like we were out of food but, seriously I am NOT going to be munching on kale for the next week. I'm an iriomote wild cat not a rabbit!
"Ichigo?"
That voice, it couldn't be!
"M-Masaya?"
Black hair, sweet brown eyes, and warm golden skin. Yup that was him alright, looking as perfect as ever. However I never noticed that the busty blonde woman hugging him so close they might've been glued together….She squeezed his arm tighter….Nope not connected just a clinger.
But I had to admit the woman was gorgeous, her skin was the same color as Masaya's and her unnaturally blonde almost yellow hair fell down in thick and neat waves. Her full lips were painted cherry red and her large eyes heavily coated with mascara seemed to narrow into a glare.
Masaya seemed to notice the tension between the two of us because he quickly changed the subject,
"Ah, Ichigo this is my fiancée…"
He's engaged?!
I swore to myself that when we broke up right before senior year that I would never let myself feel anything for him again. But yet, here I was standing in the middle of the sidewalk feeling my heart twist with something between sadness and anger. Was I jealous…? No way! I couldn't be! It's been three years now! Not to mention I broke up with him! So why the hell did I want to rip that lady's arm off and throw it into the freeway?
"Ichigo?"
My ex's concerned voice broke me out of my personal rant.
"Y-yes?" I asked feeling very stupid in front of his fiancée who was in fact still glaring at me.
"Are you okay? You seem kind of tense…" He pointed out.
I smiled and shook my head "I'm fine!"
"Oh, are you sure?"
"Masaya-kun…" The woman interrupted in a low and smooth voice. "We really must be going now if we want to catch that movie…." She said in an annoyed tone.
They were going to a movie? Then why was she in a cocktail dress? It made absolutely no sense but I've come to conclusion that this woman is what do you call it….. A gold digger? A tramp? The list goes on….
"Ah yes that's right." Masaya replied looking at his soon to be bride who was currently shooting me a victorious sneer. I rolled my eyes.
"It was nice seeing you again." Masaya said smiling at me with a warm look in his eyes.
"Yeah." I replied, "It was nice to meet you…" I said turning and bowing politely to his fiancée and shooting her a quick glare on my way up.
"Nice to meet you as well…." She said darkly copying my actions.
"Well, see you later…." Masaya said waving his hand and walking off with his arm locked around the wenchy woman known as his future-wife.
I sighed and turned around continuing my lonely walk down to the store.
A while later…..
I kicked the door open and unpacked the groceries not even caring about where Kish was, it had been an excruciatingly long day and a painful walk down memory lane. I hated to dwell in the past. I walked back into the living room and slumped down onto the couch. I closed my eyes ready to sleep the rest of the day away but sadly I was awoken by a single arm coiling around my waist pulling me to the owner of the said arm.
"What do you want?" I grumbled not bothering to look up as I already knew who it was.
"Aww, why so cold honey?"
"Go away…" I said my annoyance turning into exhaustion I looked up to meet the eyes of Kish which to my surprise instead of mock hurt or a mischievous glint were filled with worry.
"What's wrong? Usually you're a lot feistier than this koneko…"
"It's been a long day." I replied simply.
"Wanna talk about it?" He asked
I sighed softly deciding on whether or not I felt like spilling my sorrows. I decided it couldn't hurt.
"I saw Masaya today…" I began.
He stiffened at the name.
"And?" He asked rather irritably.
"He's engaged."
He relaxed again.
"But I- I don't know why but I feel so…..upset about it…." My eyes burned a little bit like there was salt in them.
I let out a shaky breath pressing on to explain further. "It was senior year of high school when we broke up. Masaya was so enveloped in his future and his reputation and the scholarship he had his heart set on….It wasn't long before he started to have less time for me and our relationship became platonic. I told him we should go our separate ways so we could both achieve our goals…..he agreed, but to be honest, I wish he hadn't…."
"Do you still love him?" Kish asked.
I looked at him. His face seemed a little pained and also a bit angry. My heart seemed to melt a little.
"I don't know. Ever since that day I've tried to keep myself from missing him, thinking of him, hell I tried desperately to forget his number! But, when I saw him today with that beautiful woman he's engaged to. Everything came flooding back I really just wanted to hug him and apologize for everything….but I know he doesn't love me anymore so it's okay now. Just knowing he's happy is all that matters to me." I felt a tear trace down my face and a sad smile crept on my lips.
Kish remained still and quiet for a moment and I thought I might've made him upset for saying I still had feelings for Masaya, I wasn't an idiot it was obvious how he felt about him. But to my surprise he pulled me closer and placed a gentle kiss on the back of my wrist. "I don't know about him not loving you anymore, but that doesn't matter to me. Because I for one do love you and will do whatever it takes to make you see that."
My cheeks began to heat up as he took his free arm and tilted my chin up so I looked into his passionate gold eyes which looked as if they had a fire glowing within them.
"Just you wait Ichigo Momomiya; I will win your heart. I know that you may not see it today or tomorrow or even weeks from today but I'll wait for an eternity until I can hear you say the same to me, because you love me too without any threats or kidnapping, but for now I'm content on just living with you and seeing your smile."
With that he pecked my lips gently and pulled back grinning.
"Ten seconds and you haven't done anything violent! See, what did I tell ya'? We're making progress!"
I blushed once more but smiled.
"Hey Kish?" I asked quietly
"Yeah?"
"Thanks and-"With that I whole heartedly brought my fist down on his head. I smiled and got up walking away feeling refreshed and happy to lose the anchor on my chest.
"And she's back…." I heard him mumble.
I smiled again and in the back of my mind kept his promise there.
"My heart huh?" I whispered under my breath "We'll see about that." And with that I went into the kitchen and began our dinner.

Cuddling –
I don't hate many things besides cold water and loud noises, cat thing, but recently I discovered something new on my list. Waking up in the middle of the night. Let me explain it was about I don't know one, two in the morning and I was having a pleasant dream about yarn. Again, cat thing. However my dream was suddenly interrupted when I felt a surprising warmth curl up beside me. At first I thought another cat like Alto or Pedo-cat (or 'forever alone cat' if you prefer) was invading MY dreamland. Ohhhhh nooo I fly solo buddy! I struggled around cat world to find the source of the warmth but with no avail. Until the warmth breathed. Okay time to wake up!
My eyes snapped open and I realized the source was not coming from cat world but from the real world instead. I quickly regretted opening my eyes; I found myself trapped between a pair of arms and my face centimeters away from the innocent sleeping one of Kish. Great. Just what I needed really.
I was about to struggle free but his arms only tightened around me, not to mention the fact that if I made one false move and Kish's wildest dreams would come true. So instead I simply stayed as still as possible and called his name poking him gently.
"Kish! Kish! Wake up right now!" I shouted quietly.
"Hmm?" Was the muffled reply I received.
"Hey!"
Finally his eyelids slowly opened revealing two amber eyes that seemed to glow in the dark.
"Ichigo…." He said softly
"The hell are you doing in my bed! And let go of me!" I said angrily shoving him.
He smirked "But it's so cold on the couch and I figured what better way to get a good night's sleep than by cuddling with a cat!" He said feigning innocence.
"I don't care; get out of my bed right now!"
"But Ichigo….your chest….it's so warm and soft…" He purred snuggling closer to my chest to prove a point.
I hoped the darkness could conceal my blush…..
"Get off my chest!" I whispered angrily.
"I-chi-go…." Kish said my name in syllables as his seductive eyes wandered up to meet my own.
He leaned forward so I could feel his hot breath on my lips. He smiled and took a strand of my wine colored hair in his long fingers.
"Did I ever tell you the effect you have on me…?" He asked his glazed eyes still fixated on mine as he twirled the hair around in his hands.
"What're you saying?" I asked feeling the blush deepen.
"I love you…." He whispered quietly before his lips pressed to my own.
The kiss was gentle but filled with passion and fire as well; it made me…..sleepy….
I felt my eyelids grow heavy as I struggled to keep my consciousness and not give into him but my body said otherwise as it relaxed under him and my lips seemed to deceive me as they stopped listening to my pleas of resistance as well. I could feel his smirk against my lips as he pulled back and I couldn't help but shiver at the sudden freeze that was beginning to consume me and I instinctively found myself snuggling closer to him.
"See I told you it was cold." He laughed
…..That sneaky bastard…He knew what he was doing….I was going to kick his ass sky high….tomorrow for now I was going to get some sleep and then write a note to myself to lock my bedroom door at night.
