"He looks... happy," Toushiro said, frowning slightly as he regarded the bird in its cage.
"Is that a bad thing?" Ichigo asked, watching as his new cockatiel was attacking his dinner and dropping seed shells all over the bottom of the cage.
"No..." Toushiro mumbled, tilting his head to the side. "You just don't strike me as a bird person."
Ichigo chuckled. "I couldn't resist that face. Look at his little, red cheeks."
Toushiro rolled his eyes. "I can't believe you. I send you out for pain medication and you come back with a bird."
"I gave you the Aleeve, didn't I? Not my fault that the pet store is on the way to the pharmacy and this little guy was on display."
"You have no will power, Ichigo."
"He was whistling at me."
Toushiro raised an eyebrow. "You bought a bird because it cat-called you?"
"No! no." Ichigo blushed slightly. "He did this," He whistled a short tune and the cockatiel tilted it's head, dropping the seed it had in it's mouth, and whistled the same tune back. "See, now tell me that isn't adorable."
Toushiro shook his head and the bird let out a few soft chirps. "I hope he doesn't get too loud."
Ichigo's eyes widened slightly. "Do you still have a headache?"
"It's not too bad now; don't worry about it."
Ichigo winced and pulled Toushiro into a one armed hug, placed a soft kiss to his temple. "Sorry, babe, I didn't think."
Toushiro leaned against Ichigo's chest and watched the bird as it went back to flinging it's food around the cage. "No, but it's okay. I understand why you got so excited. what's his name?"
Ichigo kissed his temple again. "We can keep him?"
Toushiro took a deep breath through his nose. "Why the hell not?"
