Ichigo woke up feeling somewhat uneasy. She didn't like the feeling and looked around the room to see that some pictures of her and Masaya were missing. At first, she thought that Kisshu might have taken them; cutting out Masaya's face and sticking his own in place - which Kisshu did before as a joke to try and cheer her up. Ichigo then started to realize what had happened yesterday and remembered Masaya had broken up with her. She looked around also remembering that she had spent the day with Kisshu and at the end of the day had kissed her. Ichigo smiled knowing that Kisshu had kissed and she didn't push him away or yell at him or anything related, instead she welcomed and enjoyed the kiss; wondering if she could get another.
She decided to take a shower and get dressed to embrace the new change in her life - that change being Masaya had broken up with her but to her own surprise she wasn't sad, hurt, or even mad at Masaya instead she felt like a huge weight had been lifted off of her shoulders which she liked.
After showering and getting dressed, she headed out the door feeling happy and feeling free. She felt free to do whatever she wanted without Masaya getting possessive over her or even jealous if she was being friendly towards other guys and they became friends - which she hated, even if she kept trying to explain that they were just friends Masaya would always yell and get angry.
Now being free, Ichigo decided to enjoy it. She wanted to do everything she could to enjoy herself so went shopping at the mall. When she got to the mall she went to different stores finding lots of clothes she'd never expected to like before while trying them on. She got more than 5 bags of clothes and at least 4 pairs of shoes before she started to realize that she missed Kisshu. Ichigo was at the food court before she also realized that she loved Kisshu but wished she could just tell him and not hide her feelings for him - he had never hid his feelings for her since they met and fought against each other but for someone reason she was always embarrassed at the thought of loving Kisshu.
When she finally left the mall after more than 6 hours, she walked past some couples that were hugging and kissing as they spent time together which reminded her that tomorrow was Valentine's Day plus made it harder because she hadn't told Kisshu how she really felt about him before which in turn made her even more nervous; not knowing what Kisshu would say or even do.
Perhaps to Ichigo this was the perfect outlook she needed to realize that maybe she really did love Kisshu just that her once love for Masaya blinded her to that fact but in a way she almost wanted to thank Masaya for giving her the chance to realize that she loves the green haired alien. She started going home with her bags and couldn't keep her mind off of Kisshu. To her it was weird knowing that she was thinking about him when before she was hoping he didn't find her or stealing a kiss from her unexpectedly.
She was finally home and headed upstairs to her bedroom. She looked at her new clothes and shoes realizing that she was now starting over on new relationships and having the freedom she'd never had before when she was with Masaya who always got jealous whenever guys would give her compliment or get angry at the slightest things.
Ichigo hoped that Kisshu wouldn't be like Masaya, although the only person that Kisshu was ever jealous of was Masaya, never anyone else but that had yet remained to be unseen. Ichigo knew Kisshu wouldn't be like that towards her because she loved him and would never do anything to really hurt his feelings. This ended up almost worrying about possibly being in a relationship with Kisshu but knew that she wanted to be with him more than ever no matter what others thought about it. She rested on her bed knowing that she now realized her true feelings for Kisshu and wanted to figure out how to even tell Kisshu. She wondered if Kisshu knew what Valentine's Day even was, if he did what was he planning on doing if anything? All this made Ichigo nervous even more than before.
Suddenly rising up quickly, Ichigo knew what she had to do. She would get ready in one of her new outfits and leave a note for Kisshu taped to her dresser mirror. Just as she was about to get things figured out in her mind, she heard a familiar voice in her room. When she looked, she saw Kisshu floating around in a sitting position looking at Ichigo as if he was trying to see right through her.
"Hey kitten. What are you doing?" Kisshu asked with curiosity.
"Uh-um nothing much just um reading a book." Ichigo replied quickly hiding her bags from the mall in her closet and quickly grabbing a random book from her book case; hoping Kisshu wouldn't ask anything else.
"Uh kitten, why do you look like you're panicked?" Kisshu asked her; floating towards her.
Ichigo started to get nervous until she felt something on her lips. When she looked she saw that Kisshu was once again kissing her. She almost felt her knees buckle and when they did, Kisshu had caught her before she had fallen. Kisshu had sat her down on her bed wondering why she was acting this way. Normally Ichigo wouldn't be so panicked, not even when they used to fight over control of the Earth.
"Kitten, are you alright?" Kisshu asked.
"Y-yes, I am thanks, now I think you should be going now." she told Kisshu as she started to push him out of the window.
"Why honey?" He asked looking back at her.
"Cause I-I'm busy and need to do stuff." She replied.
Just then, she heard a sound she didn't want to hear. When Kisshu was about to leave, she heard one of her bags had fallen over; revealing some of her clothes that she didn't want Kisshu to see - some of which were bra and panty sets that she thought were cute but sexy at the same time. When Kisshu noticed, he teleported towards the bags; causing Ichigo to fall over but landing on one of her pillows that was set on the floor.
"Did some shopping?" Kisshu asked as he looked at the sets.
Ichigo gasped and quickly grabbed them away along with her other bags turning away in embarrassment. Kisshu looked at her with amusement knowing that Ichigo was indeed embarrassed he had saw.
"Why are you embarrassed? Not like I haven't seen your bras or panties before." Kisshu asked with amusement.
"W-what do you mean before?" She asked now staring at him.
"Well, haven't you noticed that some of them were missing? I kind have been taking some that I thought were cute." Kisshu admitted.
Ichigo just looked at him with even more embarrassment; now knowing that Kisshu has seen her bras and panties before and then thought what if he had seen her in them.
"Relax honey. It's not like I'm a pervert. I only took them and hid them in my room to have something of yours." Kisshu said to her as if it was a normal human thing to do plus it was fun - at least to Kisshu.
Ichigo finally overcame her embarrassment and thought that maybe Kisshu was honestly telling her the truth. She knew that he wouldn't hurt her feelings in any way. Instead she had looked up and smiled as they continued to talk about different things. Still, Ichigo wondered if Kisshu knew what tomorrow was and hoped that he would know and spend the day with her again.
