Ichigo slowly opened her eyes to find that she was now in her own room. There was no trace of Kisshu anywhere. Ichigo wondered what had happened until she remembered what they did last night - now realizing it she checked herself out to see if there was any visible marking anywhere on her body. To her relief, there was no markings except the pain from last night which she hoped would go away in the next few hours so deciding to take it easy until the pain would be gone, hoping it would be soon.
She went back to her bed wanting to lay back down when she noticed something was on the edge of her bed. When she got closer, she realized it was a small box. Opening the box up, she saw a beautiful white necklace that sparkled in the sunlight. She wondered who it was from but no card or note came with the box. What she didn't know was that Kisshu was watching her. He loved seeing the expression on Ichigo's face when she opened the box. He also knew that happiness was what she was going to get, even if it meant interacting with people he didn't like. Off Kisshu went flying off to see what else he could get or do for Ichigo to make her happy.
He stopped by a bakery shop to see if they had one of Ichigo's favorite foods. Kisshu also realized that he would need some type of disguise considering that most people would find is appearance 'odd' looking to some extent. He looked around and saw what looked like a plastic person wearing clothes. The plastic person looked like it was wearing his size of clothes so he went inside.
Heading inside, he saw the plastic person he was staring at just a few moments ago outside. Kisshu looked at the plastic person as he tried to figure out where to find the exact same clothes he was wearing. Looking proved to be easier said than done because most of the clothes were either too big or too small for his frame. He was about to give up when he came across a pair of black jeans and a white and blue shirt with some sort of 'weird' design on it - to Kisshu of course, all Earth clothing was weird especially males clothing. He tried the clothes on and seemed comfortable, after all if humans can put these on so could he. After he finished putting the clothes on, he looked at himself in the mirror admiring his look but noticed he had to hide his ears some way so he could avoid the stares - not that he was self conscious about his appearance - no, he just didn't want annoying humans looking and pointing at him as if he was a freak.
He went out and grabbed the nearest jacket with a hood he could get his hands on. After paying, he put on the jacket with the hood on. He didn't know why he didn't wear a disguise before, perhaps it was just because he was happy that he was finally with Ichigo that he didn't care, even though Pai had always told him and Taruto to not go out without a disguise to avoid any type of detection or questioning since that was the last thing they all needed.
Kisshu walked back towards the bakery to get Ichigo a pastry with maple syrup on it since he knew it was one of her favorites and he should be the one giving her presents not that damn tree huger who he loathed entirely. Upon entering the bakery shop, he hadn't seen so many different kinds of pastries before. Seeing all these pastries made Kisshu want to eat them all up and then get Ichigo's pastry. He saw one pastry in particular that had caught his eye. The pastry had chocolate on it and was toasted to a crisp. When he bit inside it he felt something creamy go into his mouth. Kisshu looked to see what it was and the stuff looked like foam but tasty foam as it was white with some chocolate swirls mixed in it. He looked around and started to eat more and more different pastries - until the owner of the bakery caught him and chased him around the shop; making a complete mess. Kisshu quickly grabbed Ichigo's pastry and ran outside a block from the shop.
He knew he wouldn't be allowed in that shop any time soon but he didn't care, he got what he needed. He noticed that Ichigo's pastry was still warm and the maple syrup on it had just hardened enough to make it not so sticky and drip everywhere. He hoped to find Ichigo at her house to give it to her or if not look for her before her pastry got ice cold and he would have to keep it warm.
Kisshu would spend all day looking for Ichigo if he had to. He wanted to make her happy and have a nice day whether freely or by force - if necessary. He looked first at her house but realized she wasn't there; looking in each room of the house. Kisshu then decided to look at the park; looking in trees, bushes, lakes, - of course why would Ichigo be in a lake? He didn't know if she knew how to swim but wanted to check anyways - it would be a nice opportunity to possibly might see Ichigo in a cute bikini. The thought of it made Kisshu jump into the lake at the park and see just to make sure.
Now knowing she wasn't in the lake, he searched some more hoping to find her soon before it became late. He looked and looked; trying to find her in the most unusual places but to no avail she wasn't in those places.
Kisshu hadn't realized the time and before he knew it, it had already been past 3 p.m. It was normal for Kisshu not seeing Ichigo for few hours but not almost the entire day. He started to grow increasingly frustrated when he saw someone who looked a lot like Ichigo. When he got more closer he realized it was Ichigo! He flew faster towards her almost heading straight for a tree but nearly stopping in time.
"K- kitten!" He panted out in between breaths.
"Kisshu? Are you okay." Ichigo asked.
"Y-yes, I'm okay, I've just been looking for you everywhere to give you something." Kisshu replied still catching his breath.
"Sorry Kisshu I've been here at the cafe all day catching up on some things. What did you want to give me?" Ichigo asked.
"This." Kisshu told her.
Ichigo saw what Kisshu was pulling out. It was a pasty with maple syrup on it that looked like it was just freshly made just few seconds ago. Ichigo couldn't believe that Kisshu would go to such trouble to even think about getting her one of her favorite foods. She smiled and as Kisshu handed it to her she had greatly accepted it as she smiled taking a bite of it. The warmth of the pastry combined with the maple syrup was more than enough to make Ichigo's day happy and pleasant.
"Thank you Kisshu. This really made me smile plus I needed something tasty to keep me smiling." Ichigo told him.
"You're welcome honey." Kisshu replied as he started to take off the disguise which made Ichigo laugh but knew that he probably would have to wear one once in awhile but never minded it. Kisshu tossed the clothes into a near by closet before sitting across Ichigo wondering what she was working on.
"What are you working on kitten?" He asked.
"Oh, I'm just working on some things for school I need to catch up on. I've been busy that I nearly forgot about it." Ichigo replied warmly.
Kisshu nodded and instead of distracting her he kept to his own devices of keeping himself busy; sometimes earning a small laugh from Ichigo or a smile which made him happy he was making her smile. As the day turned into night, Kisshu decided to stay at Ichigo's house to see what it be like to sleep in her own house. Ichigo didn't mind as long as he didn't make a mess which he was prone to doing but nevertheless it made Kisshu and her more comfortable in one way or another.
Not only that, Kisshu had few more surprises because in the next few days it'd be Saturday so he knew he had to work fast in order to surprise her no matter what the length it was he would accept it and risk it. He loved Ichigo and he would always prove it to her.
