Who I Am

by Sumomo-Hitachiin

Uryu Ishida may have moved away from his old home, but his old habits still stay with him. He loves to wear womens' clothes and it causes quite the uproar in his new school. He also catches the attention of an orange haired stranger, who seems to struggle with his own identity. crossdressing!UryuXIchigo! Some IsshinXRyuken Rated M for language

Uryu's POV

2:15 PM

To be honest, making lemonade is really difficult. According to Karin and Yuzu, there's a bunch of rules you have to follow. After watching them make a batch, they told me to do it myself. They were screaming at me the whole time! Eiher the lemon I picked was too small, or I put too much sugar in it. There's no such thing as perfect lemonade, you know! While we were doing that, Isshin and Ryuken brought in more funiture. Those two seemed to have fun doing that. Even though the bastard's trying to hide it, I could easily tell that he was enjoying himself. I couldn't hear what they were saying, because of the twins arguing, but it must have been something pretty damn funny because my father was smiling at him. I've tried to make Ryuken smile(a real smile, I mean. Those petty smirks don't count.) many times! I guess Isshin knows him better than I do. "Hey, Uryu! Pay attention!" Karin says, smacking my arm. "Ouch! I'm sorry," my eyes didn't leave my happy dad. "I've never seen Ryuken so happy before." I admitted to them. The twins looked in the same direction. Yuzu giggled. "Don't you have a best friend, Uryu?" she asked. I took my phone out of my pocket and showed her my wallpaper photo. It was of me and Szayel at one of the many concerts Nnoitra started up. "Hey! His hair is so pretty!" Yuzu squealed. "Is it naturally that way?" Karin added when she took a glance. "Szayel dyed it so many times, it just ended up that way." Karin snatched the phone away from me. "Hey!" I tried to get it back, but the little girl is too quick for me. "Your friend's pink hair is funny, doesn't he ever get made fun of?" "Karin!" Yuzu scolded. "That's not nice!" I sighed when they started going at it again.

"No! Listen, no made of fun him. I call him 'Pink Panther', though," They stopped yelling long enough to laugh at the nickname. "What? That's so lame!" Karin said through chuckled. "And he calls me..." my voice trailed off. There's no way I'm telling them that name. "What is it, Uryu? Tell us!" Yuzu begged me with puppy dog eyes. Now, who would deny a face so cute? "He called me... Angelface," I closed my eyes, ready to be ridiculed. Instead of laughter, though, I heard them both say "Awwww!". "That is so cute!" Yuzu cried, hugging me a little too tightly. "You do have the face of an angel, Uryu," That should've made me angry, but it made me smile. "Thanks, Yuzu."

Around seven o'clock, all of our work was finished. Ryuken passed out of the couch with his head in Isshin's lap. It was so cute, I took a picture and sent it to Szayel. The caption said "Ryuken and his ex-bf from the past! How cute is it?". I sat on the couch with Karin, listening to Isshin go on and on about his time with Ryuken in the past. Yuzu was in the kitchen cooking for us. "And when I didn't do my homework, this guy would say 'That's it! No more kisses from me.' He meant it, too. I didn't have one kiss until our report cards came back." Isshin laughed. Karin and I giggled with him. Who knew my dad was such a smart ass back then, too? "Does this District's high school have any dances at the time?" I asked. Isshin smirked evilly. "I knew Ryuken told me never to tell anyone this story," he stopped to make sure my father was still sleeping before he continued. "But during our third year of high school, there was this big dance, right? So, Ryuken was scared to ask me to go with him and it was so cute! Every single time I brought it up, he'd start blushing like a little girl." I covered my mouth before a big chuckle could come out. "Then what happened, Dad?" Karin asked. "I finally asked him out the day before the dance and his face turned red as a tomato! Ryuken tried to play it off and say 'Well, it's about time you asked me, you big brute!'." We all jumped when Ryuken shuffled around in his sleep. No one wanted this story to stop before it was finished! When he realized he was still asleep, Isshin went on. "So when I picked him up, he was wearing this lime green dr- OW!" Ryuken's hand came up suddenly and pinched the poor man's nose. "Say another word, and I'll kill you slowly," he growled out.

Yuzu cooked us a small dinner, due to the amount of supplies we had here. She made us panda shaped riceballs, a plate of sushi, and some cups of lemonade. "Alright everyone!" Yuzu said with a smile. "Dig in!" Without hesistation, we all did so. It's a little strange sitting around eating with a bunch of people. Usually, it's just Ryuken and I eating together silently. Well, Ryuken is silent now. He was probably still mad at Isshin for telling that story earlier. Isshin could tell, too. "Ryuken! Contribute to our conversation!" he whined, nudging his shoulder a bit. My father ignored him and continued to eat his food. "Ryuken! Come on! I told you I was sorry!" Isshin shook him. Then, a playful grin spread across his face. "Don't make me sing the make-up song," That made my father drop everything and look at his friend with wide eyes. "You remember that?" he gasped. Isshin rolled his eyes. "Of course I do! As many times as I sung it to you back then, how can I forget it?" He cleared his throat loudly and he sung aloud:

"Oh my Ryuken~! Please forgive my wrong for it was bad luck! So stop being mad so we can go home and-"

"ISSHIN!" Karin and I laughed at how red Ryuken's face got. Isshin laughed with us, while Yuzu looked confused. "What were you-" "Nothing Yuzu!" Ryuken said quickly. "Since we're friends now, I was going to say 'play cards'," Ryuken mumbled something like "Yeah right," under his breath. When the laughter calmed, Yuzu sighed. "I don't remember the last time we had a family dinner like this," Karin shook her head at that. "It's not a family dinner! Ichigo isn't here," Oh yes, the infamous Ichigo. I still don't know what he looks like! The only thing I do know is that he plays rugby, because that was the reason why he couldn't come today, so he must be bulky like his father. "I told him to call me after pratice today!" Isshin growled. "Don't worry about him. He's probably with one of those annoying ass friends of his," Karin added. Yuzu threw a piece of sushi at her. "Don't use such language, Karin!" she scolded. My mind started to piece together what this strawberry might look like. So, I'm guessing he's the typical jock type of guy. Then again, him not calling his own father after him telling you to do so, he just might be a badass rebel. Damn, I need more information. "What else can you tell me about Ichigo?" I asked them eagerly. Ryuken glared at me. "Didn't I say to keep it in your pants, Uryu?" Just as I was about to whine at him, Isshin beat me to it. "Aw man!" he groaned. "He says that to you, too?" Ryuken's face turned red again. The twins and I couldn't help but laugh at that. "My son is a... mystery. He's always locked up in his room listening to that debochary he calls music! Who knows what he's doing up there?" As Isshin rambled on, I went back to picturing. Now, I'm seeing a tall male with black hair (like Isshin and Karin's, but longer), and he doesn't have much muscle. Ooh! If my predictions are right, this guy's going to be hot! I can't wait to meet him! "Uryu! Fix that look on your face," Ryuken scolded. "Sorry about that." Now it was my turn to look like a tomato
