Uryu's POV
Why? Why of all places would he want to take me back there? Even as Szayel comforted me, I still couldn't brush away this feeling of bitter uneasiness. What if he was there? What am I saying? Of course he'll be there, he's one of the lead singers in the band! Maybe, he won't remember me. Ok, that's out too! I'm the one who got him expelled from Hueco Mundo. And I'm pretty sure he's pissed about the fact that he had to spend a few days in a holding cell... Damn it all! My hand squeezed Szayel's as we piled into Renji's vehicle. "You'll be alright, ok? I can kick ass," he says. I don't care if he can kick ass, because he seriously can, but this is... the Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez we're talking about here. My best friend may kick ass, but Grimmjow can kick ass. So how could Ichigo not know about this guy's rep in the Espadas? It's a very well-known fact around the Las- Wait, never mind. I can't completely blame him for living in the Seireitei District all of his life.
The drive to the Las Noches District was both uneventful and nostalgic for me. Uneventful because Ichigo was staring out the window in his own little world the whole time and hasn't said a word to any of us. I completely understand that because the only conversation going on was between Szayel and Renji. Luckily, Renji was driving because I swear those two were going to rip each others' throats out! "What's with the pink hair anyway, Pretty Boy?" Renji sneered at him. "That's been over and done with since the 90s!" Szayel snapped back with "What's up with those tattoos? Did some guy and his bitch give them to you in prison?" That statement was so hypocritical because he said just as they were walking up to us at the park "Damn, I'd happily lick those tattoos off of his body".
Even though it's hasn't even been two weeks since I moved away from Las Noches, it still feels like it's been forever since I was last here. We passed the school, my old neighborhood, and even the old market where I stole my first lip-gloss as we drove through. You never really know how much something means to you until it's gone.
"Alright, do any of you guys know where the Espadas usually play?" Ichigo yawned out and turned back to face us.
"Nnoitra-sama's arena, it's a few blocks down from his house," Szayel explained. My eyebrow arched at the "sama" suffix at the end of Nnoitra's name. Only the people who've had sex with him call him that... "Szayel Aporro Granz!" I gasped. "Did you..." "Let's not speak of the past, Angelface. I am a new man," he says, covering my mouth. Yeah, that's why we're wearing matching skirts, idiot. Renji and Ichigo gave confused looks, but shrugged us off. "Ok," Renji says, "You're assuming we know where this Nnoitra-fucker lives," Szayel growled. "You're a fucker, you redheaded prick ass!" I giggled at them both. Never in my life would I expect someone to match up with my best friend so easily! I'm surprised Renji hasn't pulled the car over and beat him into a bloody mess. "He lives a few blocks down the road on the right. The arena should be a few feet away," I directed. "Thank you, Angelface," Renji grinned.
"Hey! Only I call him that, asshole!"
"You are what you eat,"
"Damn right!"
Oh, deities, please make them stop.

Ichigo's POV
Uryu's horrified expression was glued into my brain and it wouldn't go away. I stared out the window, trying to think of what could've caused it Honestly, I thought he'd be bouncing off the walls when he found out he'd be going back to his hometown. Hopefully, Szayel could cheer him up before we get there. From the looks of things now, I'd say he's doing a pretty good job of that now. Uryu was smiling happily, despite his annoyance with Renji and Szayel's bickering. That's all I could ask for, really. His smile is pretty nice...
"ICHIGO!" the two colorful haired fools screamed in my face.
I nearly jumped to the roof of the car. "Wha-what? What happened?" I asked, scrambling for my breath. Renji shook his head, Szayel roared with laughter, and Uryu just arched his eyebrow. "Save the ogling for later, Ichi. We're already here," Renji grumbled, setting the car in park. "Awesome!" our dates shouted in unison. "My body is ready, Nnoitra-sama," Szayel purred as he stepped out of car. Uryu slapped his arm. "Panther, did you forget that you were on a date?" they both looked back at Renji and glared at each other. "But Uryu!" he whined. "No, Szayel. You said if he was ugly that you'd send me to the dwarf planet Pluto. I'm there, so I know you don't find the guy unattractive," Renji threw his hands in the air. "You guys do know I'm standing right here, right?" he groans. Uryu motioned for Szayel to move towards my friend and stuck out his tongue. "Be. Nice." he ordered, coming over to my side of the vehicle. "I hope your ready for this," he says to me. "No one was ever left a Las Espadas show with their virginity," Judging by the look on his face, he wasn't kidding about that. Damn, what did I get myself into?

Uryu's hand was clutched into mine as he led us towards the Jiruga Family Arena. When I say this place was huge, that's a complete understatement. It was difficult to comprehend that one microscopic neighborhood could hold something so freaking colossal! This Nnoitra guy must be loaded. No, not even that. He must have money coming out of his ass if he could afford a place like this. "It's been so long since I've been here," Uryu sighs, pulling my attention back to him. "Last time I was here, one of the Espadas brought Szayel on stage and he started singing," Renji, who was walking closely behind us with Szayel's hand forcibly clenched in his, arched an eyebrow. "You're kidding? Pinky here can sing?" Szayel used his free hand to flip his hair. "I am a man of many talents. And Uryu, I had to! Nnoitra-sama was playing my favorite song on his guitar," his eyes went starry. Poor Renji had this snarl already forming on his face. He didn't know who "Nnoitra-sama" was, but I could already tell that Renji wanted to kill him.
"What song?" he asked, trying to mask his anger. "Alones by Aqua Timez! Once you hear it, you won't be able to stop listening to it," Renji smirked. Fortunately, Renji had heard of this song. By heard of it, I mean he and Keigo came over my house and threaten to burn my hidden Girls Dead Monster posters if I didn't listen to the damn song. "Well, I like that song, too," he said. "I'm looking forward to hearing it come from that pretty mouth of yours." My eyes widened and I resisted the urge to look back at the two of them. Surprisingly, Szayel hadn't retaliated with a smart remark. Uryu nudged my shoulder. "He's blushing," he whispered to me. "I can tell without even looking; My best friend has probably met his match,"
"I can hear you, Angelface! And I am not blushing!"
People were crowding around everywhere but the front door, which confused me. They all stood in the grass beside the front doors, but never made a move towards When I tried to go in through those doors, Uryu pulled me over to the side. "Nope, you definitely don't want to do that," he says quickly, looking back at our two friends. Szayel shoved Renji closer to me. "What in the hell is going o-"
"OMG! There he is!" Thousands of squeals and cheers sounded before Renji could finish his question.
BOOM! BOOM!
The double doors slammed open suddenly, causing Renji and I to jump. Out came smoke, and then a sparkly white boot... What? Szayel screamed along with the crowd as the owner of the boot came out and smiled to them all. "All hail Nnoitra-sama!" some random dude called out. I'm pretty sure I was frowning by now. From first the glance, I believed that this "Nnoitra-sama" was a Class-A cliché crackhead and not a professional rockstar. His long black hair was tousled around and that wide smile of his was yellow. Seriously. His teeth looked like super buttered popcorn. At least the other band members looked... well, human! I especially favored this guy with his face painted white and green. Or is it really that pale? "Uryu, who's the green faced guy?" I asked. He smirked at me. "That's... my ex Ulquiorra," Ok, never mind.
"Party in back!" a seriously big dude yelled out. Soon after, people started piling inside. Alright, I'll say it again: What did I get myself into?

Uryu's POV
I'm so entertain now. The looks on Ichigo and Renji's faces are too priceless. And don't think I didn't catch Ichigo checking out Ulquiorra! Yeah, I may have told a little white lie about him being my ex, but it was justified! I am on a date. My date is not supposed to check out one the biggest assholes out all the Espadas! That's Szayel's job. Well, not right now. If I had to guess, I'd say he's warming up to Renji just fine. "Angelface, Ichi! You heard the big guy!" Renji cheered, referring to the Espadas' drummer, Yammy. "Let's head in!" He gripped Szayel's hand and disappeared into the sea of humans. "Alrighty, Ichigo! Let's go in and pray we don't get trampled." I say, grabbing onto his hand. He smiled down at me. "Ok,"
Pushing, shoving, cursing... how did Szayel and I do this every weekend? I can't deal with all of these... people! Goddamn it, if one more person steps on my foot I swear on my life and Ichigo's hair that they'll deserve what's going to come to them! I'd be losing my shit if it were Szayel with me instead of Ichigo. "Where'd Renji go?" Ichigo asked once we finally made our way inside the damn arena. There was no sign of our two friends, but I decided not to worry about it. "Once inside an Espada concert, it's every man for himself. Just remember to keep your panties on," I answered him. He, of course, looked at me like I'd grown a second head or something. I don't blame him, Szayel said first and he got it from Nnoitra-sama himself. "Szayel told me that at my first time-"
"And he sure did teach you well," a terribly familiar voice said from behind the two of us. My heart suddenly stopped. No, not here. Not now. I quickly turned myself around, my hand still clutched in with Ichigo's.
Damn.
"Grimmjow?"
I really shouldn't be doing this... I have a very important test tomorrow! But, eh, forget about it! Here's the first part of the date and I'm hoping the next part will be longer! And did you know that Szayel did a cover of "Alones" by Aqua Timez? I damn near died! Check it out if you haven't already! Review and I shall return! :D :D
