Here is chapter 11.

Ichigo laid down in her bed before picking up the rose and putting it away. Ichigo closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Why does he have to leave like that? Could he not stay a little longer and tell her if he felt the same way or if he didn't like her anymore. Ichigo sighed, she can't stay in bed all day. She told Kisshu and now she has work to do. She needs to finish off some homework for school tomorrow. And when she goes to work she will tell Lettuce about Kisshu.

So Ichigo got out of bed and took her books out. No matter how much she hated to but she sat down in her desk and started doing homework. Homework. That was Ichigo's biggest enemy. She still didn't like doing homework and sometimes she handed her homework late. God knows how many times she had to sit down in detention because of that.

When she had finally finished doing all of her homework, she went downstairs to have her dinner. Her mum was downstairs sitting in the sofa.

'Your dad will come home soon,' Ichigo's mother said.

'Ok,' Ichigo replied.

Ichigo quickly finished her dinner and put her plate in the kitchen.

'Ichigo?' Her mother called before she could run back upstairs.

'Yes?'

'Where did you go this morning? You never told me.'

'Oh…That… Er…It was nothing, mum. I just went to Lettuce's house because I needed help with my homework,' Ichigo lied.

Ichigo's mother raised one of her eyebrows. She knew her daughter better than anyone else. She knew when Ichigo was lying or when she was hiding something from her. This was one of those times.

'Ok…' her mother said, not sure if she should believe her daughter or not.

Ichigo ran upstairs before her mother started asking any more questions. She hated lying, partly because she wasn't very good at it. And now, she felt horrible for lying to her mother. But she couldn't tell her the truth. At least, not now anyway. She wouldn't believe her.

Ichigo brushed her teeth and got ready to go to bed. She had school tomorrow so she needed to sleep early or she would be late to school. Again. That was becoming part of her daily routine.

She would sleep, wake up, get ready in super speed mode, run downstairs and trip, start crying, calm herself down, have breakfast (sometimes have no breakfast at all), run out of the door, get angry at herself for forgetting to say 'bye' to her parents, run to school, arrive late, get told off by her teacher and start her boring school life that keeps getting boring.

With so many thoughts in her head she soon fell asleep, not looking forward of waking up the next morning.

The next day Ichigo was walking to work. She had a busy school day and she hated to come to work, but at least she would be with her friends. This was the perfect time to tell Lettuce about yesterday.

'For the first time, you are not late. Well done,' Ryou said when he saw Ichigo come in the café.

'I know,' Ichigo sighed.

Lettuce smiled at her when she saw Ichigo come in to the café.

'So, when do you plan to tell him then?' Lettuce whispered so the other Mew Mews couldn't hear them.

'I already did,' Ichigo whispered back.

Lettuce gasped. Ichigo smiled at her.

'I will tell you everything after work,' Ichigo promised.

Lettuce just gave her a small nod.

The five Mews worked like they always did but no one realised that Ichigo and Lettuce were hiding something.

When the café was closed and everyone had finished cleaning the Mews headed home.

'So, what happened?' Lettuce asked Ichigo excitedly as they both walked home.

'I don't know,' Ichigo grumbled.

'What do you mean?' Lettuce asked confused.

'I told him that I liked him but then he was gone.'

'What?' Lettuce was still confused.

So Ichigo explained everything to Lettuce while she listened to her carefully.

'So he didn't say anything?'

'No.'

'Ask him the next time you see him.'

'I will kill him the next time I see him,' Ichigo groaned, 'Could he not find another time to leave? Why right at that moment?'

Lettuce laughed. Ichigo was clearly annoyed.

'Good luck with that then.'

So Ichigo and Lettuce left heading their own way home.

By the time Ichigo came home it was around eight o'clock. Her mother seemed to be busy doing whatever she was doing since she wasn't home. Ichigo sighed and went to her room before she quickly prepared herself a snack.

Ichigo came in her room and sat down in her bed.

'Hey kittycat!' A voice shouted.

Ichigo didn't move an inch. That was Kisshu and she knew it. She wasn't expecting him now. Ichigo slowly turned around. Kisshu was floating in the air. And as always, he had a mysterious smirk in his face.

I know it's the usual 'Ichigo goes out, comes to her room, finds Kisshu, goes out again, goes to her room and finds Kisshu again' and I am sorry if you are starting to find this story a bit boring. And it's a little bit short too. But I will try to make the next chapters more fun. I hope you review it anyways.
