Hi xD
I said it would be up asap… Lol I'm on Spring Break so I've had time to write! Sadly I go back to school on Monday and another class is starting for me the same day as well so chapters will take a bit longer to write and upload. So please be patient!
Chapter Twenty-Two
(Rukia's POV)
I laugh along with the rest of my friends as Aiden finishes telling us a story about Davina when she was younger. Apparently a six-year-old Davina thought it would be funny to hide in the forest behind her house and get lost in them resulting in a three-hour search through the woods where they found her sobbing and sitting by the lake.
"Oh shut up, I was six! I was terrified and I thought I was going to have to live out there like Tarzan or something." Davina says and I chuckle. "That would only happen to you Vina." Ichigo say as he wraps his arm around me. The night is almost over and we are just standing in a circle when Aiden's brother Devin comes over to us. "Aiden, we're leaving." Devin says and he freezes when he sees Davina. "Vi…" I look at Davina and she looks extremely uncomfortable, this is the first time in years that she has seen Devin face to face and not through a web cam. I get up and motion for Ichigo to get up discretely. "Vina, would you mind joining us real quick we have to talk to you about the place we'll be going to next week." Ichigo says before I can even breathe a word. Davina nods and excuses herself as she follows us, Devin frowns and Grimmjow looks at him daring him to say or do something.
"Oh thank you two for saving me! I thought I was going to die from an awkward encounter!" Davina says. "I could tell, but in all seriousness what is up with him? He's been giving me the chills all night since I met him." I say and Davina whips her head in my direction as we walk further down the hallway of City Hall. "Wait when did you meet him?!" Davina nearly yells. "Earlier as we left the dance floor she bumped into him." Ichigo says and Davina scowls. "Be careful around him, he's not the same guy I grew up with before… Aiden on the other hand, you can trust him he wouldn't hurt a fly unless he had to." Davina says smiling. "Yeah, I can tell he's a good guy." I say smiling.
"Not to interrupt or anything, but I actually did need to talk to you about our vacation place." Ichigo says and Davina nods. "So everyone finally decided on place?" Davina asks and we nod. All of us teenagers decided to organize the trip for the winter and since we are all kind of sick of the cold we decided to have the vacation in Hollywood, California and thank god my mom lightened up and lifted my grounding. "Hollywood? Wow, how perfect." Davina says and I raise an eyebrow. "What do you mean perfect?" Ichigo asks. "Dad got an invite for all of us to attend the premiere of Assassin's Creed but I told him to hold off on saying yes because I hadn't talked to anyone about it. But looks like I can tell him yes since we're going to Hollywood." Davina says. We talk a little bit more about the plans to go there and about how we will get there since we have to fly out by Tuesday night. After that we go back just in time to see Aiden saying his goodbyes. We say goodbye to him and give a curt wave to Devin before we all take our leave and go find our parents together.
(Author's POV)
"So then we are agreed to leave Tuesday morning then?" Emmett asks and everyone nods. "We'll all take the plane to LAX and we can stay at The Roosevelt Hotel, I'll make a few calls and get us a few rooms." Evelyn says. "Well we can get the penthouse and that has five rooms, so that's enough for five couples. And then we can get the Roosevelt Suite for another couple, the King Suite, Double Suite for the twins, Shuhei and Toshiro. Then the rest of us adults can get the cabanas." Masaki says and the teens look stunned. "We can take the cabanas mom, you guys should take penthouse and the other upper level rooms." Ichigo says and the other teens agree with him. "None sense most of us will be out and about and will hardly be there, the only time we will all be there will be for Christmas and New Years." Byakuya says and that ends the discussion.
The group then bids farewell to the Mayor and his family and then each go to their perspective houses.
It's now Monday morning and the girls of our group of friends are in Tokyo shopping for swimsuits to wear when they go to the beach in California.
"What about this one?" Yuzu says showing the others a nice peach pink push-up bikini outlined in black. "Ooo that is nice! You should get that Yuzu, Shuhei will die if he sees you in it!" Nel says and Yuzu blushes but hangs on to the bikini nonetheless. Tatsuki then spots a very cute black strapless with dark green bowknot decorated two-piece bikini. The girls urge her to try it on and boy does she look good in it! "Oh my god Tatsuki!" Davina says giving a wolf whistle to which Tatsuki turns as red as her boyfriend's hair. "You look amazing in that!" Rukia says and it is very true. The bikini definitely hugs her body in the right places, pushes her 34C boobs up and shows off her tan athletic curvy body.
Nel decides to go mermaid and gets a purple halter bikini top with high waisted green mermaid tail scales bikini bottom. The others choose simple colored bikinis, sexy cut out bikinis and even sexy monokinis all sexy but still modest.
After the little shopping spree the girls stop for some pizza and decide to head back to their houses.
Rukia heads home and notices her parents aren't home but she does find a note taped to the fridge.
Dear Rukia,
Your mother and I had urgent business to attend to, we will be in Tokyo late so we will stay at our house here and meet at the airport tomorrow morning. Feel free to have someone over, in fact we encourage it so you won't be alone tonight. But we expect you to be responsible, we love you and will see you tomorrow.
Love,
Mom and Dad
P.S
We apologize for leaving you alone so much, we promise at the start of the new year we will try to spend more time with you.
Xoxox

Rukia smiles and gets out her phone to call someone to come over for the night, she thinks about calling Ichigo but remembers he is with Davina seeing as her parents went ahead of everyone this morning to make sure the Roosevelt would have their rooms ready for their arrival. Rukia then decides to call Grimmjow.
"What's up Kuchiki?"
"Do you wanna come over and spend the night? My parents had to leave because of something urgent and are spending the night in Tokyo."
"Sure why not, I'll grab all my shit and be at yours in fifteen. I'll just tell my parents and be on my way."
"Awesome, you have a spare gate key and house key right?"
"Yup, want me to swing by Akane's for some food too?"
"No it's fine I want to make some white rice with shrimp croquettes. That fine with you?"
"Fuck yes it is, I love those things! Well I'll be there soon, so don't open the door for anyone alright?"
"I know Grimmjow, see you soon."
"Honey I'm home!" Grimmjow yells as he drops his bags in the foyer and make his way to the kitchen where Rukia is peeling potatoes and putting rice in the rice cooker. Rukia laughs and the two hug after she wipes her hands on the black apron she is wearing. "Hey Grimmjow." Rukia says and Grimmjow offers to help. "Sure you can peel and mash the potatoes while I get everything else ready. The two get cooking and soon enough their dinner is ready and they are eating at the island in the kitchen.
"So you happy about going back home?" Rukia asks. Grimmjow was originally born in Italy but was raised in Los Angeles for most of his childhood. He had actually moved to Japan when he was ten which is when he met the others at Masato's Dojo and soon after he started attending school with everyone and became friends with them before asking Davina out a few years later. "Eh, Karakura has always been home. LA was kind of just a place I lived and kind of liked living at, I was never to fond of it because of the weather or some of the assholes in the area. A good chunk of people were cool but a lot of them weren't." Grimmjow says. "I like going back for vacations though, especially with family." Grimmjow says nudging Rukia who smiles. The two talk a little more before moving to the den where they decide to play a few video games seeing as its only 8 O'clock.
"Ha! Suck it Grimmjow!" Rukia yells as she laps Grimmjow in another race in Mario Kart. "Damn it!" Grimmjow yells as he curses again as he gets blue shelled. "Stupid fucking computers keep blue shelling me!" Grimmjow yells as Rukia crosses the finish line.
"Yes!"
"NO! Fuck!"
The two yell and Grimmjow throws his controller on the sofa in defeat. "That's two to one Kitty." Rukia says and Grimmjow rubs his face. They have played Mortal Kombat X, Injustice Gods Among Us, Just Dance and Mario Kart for the last two and a half hours since they finished dinner.
"Alright, I'm done. Let's just watch a movie now before you get even more pissed about losing Mario Kart twice." Rukia says and the two decide to watch Scarface. They make little comments every now and then but Rukia seems a bit distracted now. The movie ends and Grimmjow glances at the clock and sees its about 2 O'clock in the morning. "Hey we have to leave in about three hours you want to just stay up, have a car take us to the airport and sleep on the plane?" Grimmjow asks and Rukia nods and bites her lip. "Alright Rukia, what's going on?" "I wrote a song for Ichigo a few days ago but I don't know if it's any good…" "Ok, sing it for me then and I'll give you my one hundred percent honest opinion." "…Ok…" Rukia and Grimmjow then go to the attic of the house that was made into a dance/music studio for Rukia. Rukia goes into the recording room and Grimmjow turns on the equipment as she gets ready and puts on the headphones.
"Go ahead." Grimmjow says into the microphone and Rukia nods.
Rukia takes a breath and sings.
(I Obviously Don't Own This Song, This is Ariana Grande's)
Tattooed Heart
By Ariana Grande
You don't need a lot of money
Honey, you don't have to play no games
All I need is all your loving
To get the blood rushing through my veins
Huh
I wanna say we're going steady
Ha
Like it's 1954,
No,
It doesn't have to be forever
Just as long as I'm the name
On your tattooed heart
Grimmjow's jaw drops at how melodic and strong her voice sounds.
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Rukia pours her heart out as she sings and just thinks of Ichigo anf how amazing he has been with her since they met.
You don't need to worry about making me crazy
'Cause I'm way past that
Eh, and so just call me, if you want me
'Cause you got me, and I'll show you, how much I wanna be
On your tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Just as long as I'm
The name on your tattooed heart
Wrap me in your jacket
My baby
And lay me in your bed
And kiss me, underneath the moonlight
Darling let me trace the lines on your tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Tattooed heart
Just as long as I'm the name on your tattooed heart
Grimmjow claps and Rukia smiles as she finishes the song.
"So I'm guessing you like it?" Rukia asks and Grimmjow nods. "That was amazing Rukia! He is going to love it when you sing it for him." "Thanks, I just don't know when I should sing it for him or who I'm going to get to do the instrumental for it." Rukia says sighing as she takes off the head phones and leaves the recording room. The two go back downstairs and head into Rukia's room where they put on White Collar even though they have seen every episode (I sadly haven't T.T).
"You know I have a friend in the business that just might be able to help you out with the instrumental. I could shoot him a text as soon as we land and we can meet up with him and I'll help you prepare a special day with Strawberry so you can sing the song for him." Grimmjow says and Rukia tackles Grimmjow in a hug. "Oh my god yes! That would be amazing, thank you Grimmjow!" Rukia says and Grimmjow chuckles. "Hey what are friends for Rukia?"
At The Airport
Grimmjow and Rukia yawn as they lean on Davina and Ichigo who laugh. "That's what you guys get for staying up so god damn late and not getting an ounce of sleep." Frank says laughing at his son and Rukia. "Oh shut up man." Grimmjow says rubbing his face tiredly. Byakuya come back with Isshin after speaking with the flight crew and tells them everything is ready and they can board. Everyone grabs their things and follows the two and a flight attendant to the plane and they all board. Soon enough they are all heading to Los Angeles on the plane and Rukia sleeps next to Ichigo on the plane dreaming of when she will sing her song for him.
Well that's all for this chapter! I promise I will try to update soon!
