Walking through the streets of Crocus at night, Ichigo Kurosaki couldn't believe what transpired earlier. He has a date, and not just any date, a date with a government official, Ultear MIlkovich. What is even more confusing is that she asked him and it was then instigated by his own little sister. It's not like he didn't mind the date but, he just never gave dating and romantic relationships a thought. Looking back on it, he never even had time to entertain the idea back in his old life.
'Old life huh?' Ichigo thought reminiscing back on his life before coming to this world, He was so occupied with fighting gods and saving the world, he never had the time to live his life but he doesn't regret a single choice he's made. Now he's in a new world, where he hasn't had to fight at the same level with the same stakes. Could he now live a life that is considered normal in this world? Being a mage, fighting, doing quests but somehow have a chance for love and later down the line have a family? It's not like it's not possible. Maybe Wendy was right, he should live a little. Ultear is a really attractive woman too, not that he cares for looks or anything but, she is quite beautiful. He should take the date seriously, tomorrow he's going to go shopping for something nice to wear. If he's going to do this, he's going to do it right.
After some more walking Ichigo arrives at the inn, he had come to this inn before going to the report meeting to leave his stuff at and have a room with two beds for him and the girls to sleep in. Walking in he sees the clerk who nods at Ichigo to which the boy nods back. He walked up stairs to go to his room door, unlocking the door and opening it he saw Wendy was sitting on the bed in her light blue pajamas with her hair down talking to Carla. Hearing the door open, the girls look and see Ichigo.
"Ichigo-nii you're back!" Wendy says cheerfully. "How'd it go earlier with Ultear?" She asks, wondering what happened after she left. She has been waiting for him to get back as the girl wants to know all the details about her brother's big date.
"It was fine, we decided to go to some fancy restaurant here that just opened around 8pm." Ichigo answers, taking his shoes off at the door and walks in the room. "She said that they don't take last minute reservations but she told me not to worry about it." Ichigo told his sister.
"Sounds like she'll use her high government status to get one. Smart move, if a government official likes your new restaurant, it would be great for business." Carla chimed in.
Ichigo nods in agreement. "Yeah, I thought that too." He already had an idea on what Ultear was planning. "Still, I can't believe she asked me out."
"Why not? My big brother is awesome and all the ladies know it." Wendy says in a matter-of-fact tone. "No surprise here." She says confidently. "Just make sure not to kiss on the first date or she'll get pregnant." She adds which catches Ichigo and Carla completely off guard. They both looked at her completely appalled by what she just said. "W-what did I say something wrong?" Wendy asks them.
The cat then facepalms and shakes head "Oh Wendy, I sometimes forget you're only twelve." Carla tittered at the girl. "If they kiss, the girl won't get pregnant, that's not how that works." She informs the child. This only made Wendy more confused so then how does it work? A man kisses a woman then she gets pregnant and after nine months a baby comes out right? Apparently not since Carla says it doesn't work like that. She turns to look at Ichigo with the ' I'm going to ask a question ' face.
'Uh oh...' Ichigo gulped, he knew what question was coming. A question that he had hoped he would never have to answer. Something Ichigo thought Wendy would learn on her own as she got older. The silence filled the room to the point you could hear everyone breathe before Wendy opened her mouth.
"Ichigo-nii where do babies come from?" She looks at him.
-To Grimmjow-
Time had passed since Grimmjow and Cana brought their employer home, dropped him off and got paid. The two were currently making their way back through the mountains. The man had gave them a map on how to get back which Cana has been following perfectly. "How much further do we have to go?" Grimmjow questions looking at the woman.
"Not much further from what the map says we're more than half way across." She answers but it was snowing much harder than when they first hiked with the old man. She was beginning to worry if they would even make it. Grimmjow thought that it was nothing to worry about, as long as they got back quick enough, they would be fine. A breeze then comes by and makes the girl shiver, Grimmjow, however, is not fazed.
"How are you not cold?" Cana asked her current traveling partner, Grimmjow turns to her and shrugs
"I'm just not cold. Also unlike you, I'm wearing a shirt, Seriously why'd you take the quest without bringing some appropriate clothes?" Grimmjow asked rhetorically. Was the girl trying to get sick or something? She did bring a jacket but no shirt is just stupid in his eyes.
"I didn't think it was going to be like this. When we first came through her it was cold but not this bad." Cana whines, this snow is starting to get more and more heavy, is this really safe? Maybe they should've waited to head back. "Do you think we should head back to ? This is starting to look like a beginning to a really bad storm." She suggested.
"From what you said earlier we're more than halfway there, we'd spend more time heading back then going forward. We are just gonna have to push through." He states. "Besides it's just snow, it can't get any worse than this." Grimmjow said to her. Which he shouldn't have because it always can get worse. A familiar screech echoed through the snow, getting both of the wizard's attention.
"Shit, you don't think-" Cana started but it was cut short by a Blizzardvern revealing itself by landing in front of them. "Not again." She says not wanting to deal with this thing at the current moment but, to her surprise and utter shock two more of them appear landing right behind the first one.
"Ah, so these must be the other three Castro mentioned. He said these things ran in packs of 4. Makes no difference to me, I'll kill all of you!" Grimmjow roared at the creatures.
"We don't have time for this right now, with this weather it's too dangerous!. We need to get away and find shelter!" Cana shouted, this isn't the time for battle, they need to get out of these mountains.
"We won't be able to do that with these things around!" Grimmjow replies "Killing them is the only way to get ahead." He added. the creature in front roars as it charges towards the duo. Grimmjow then rushes towards the beast and covers his hand in lightning magic. "Lightning Devil's Destruction Fist!" he yells as he strikes the creature in the snout which then creates a burst of lighting that shocks the wyvern when it makes contact and pushes it back. The other two wyverns then lunged at Grimmjow but they were meant with cards that hit them right in the chest, exploding and knocking them down.
Cana didn't like the fact that this was happening but Grimmjow was right, they had no other option."Fine if that's the case then let's make this quick." she says running to the man's side.
"That's the plan!" Grimmjow states. The three wyverns recover growling at the two. The one in the middle then raises its wing and swings a wave of snow towards them. Grimmjow and can both dodge snow but notices that the other two wyverns have disappeared. Looking above Grimmjow sees the two diving at him and Cana at insane speeds. "It used the snow as a distraction?!" Grimmjow observes, these things are smarter than he thought. The wyvern swipes its talon at Grimmjow but he quickly dodges the attack but Cana wasn't so lucky.
"AAAHH" She yells out in pain as the other wyvern cuts Cana's leg. She then has a harsh landing falling to the ground. "Dammit! This hurts like hell" she hissed at the pain, she tries to get up but the pain is too severe. "N-no not like this." she whines 'I'm so damn weak.' The Wyvern then turns around and inhales, getting ready to blast her with ice magic. Cana not being able to get up to move out of the way can only brace herself for the blast.
"Lightning Devil's Rage!" A blast of Lighting hits the creature on its side sending flying stopping it from attacking the girl. "You need to be more observant." Cana looks to see Grimmjow standing in front of her facing the wyverns. "Can you stand?" He asks her.
"N-no I got hit in the leg." Cana answers reluctantly "Sorry" she apologizes to him. Thanks to her he now has to fight alone.
Grimmjow then narrows his eyes. 'This is just great, now I have to protect her and fight.' He complains normally he wouldn't care about someone in a situation like this but that damned Kurosaki is rubbing off on him, much to his aggravation. "Well that's just peachy. Oh well this just means I get to have more fun" Grimmjow states as he smirks sadistically, The ex-espada then unsheathes Pantera. His body began to glow a bright blue as he began to channel his reiatsu but that's not all. With a crackle, lightning begins to appear around his body. "Lightning Devil's Secret Art: Aktzin's Armor." Grimmjow then becomes enveloped in lightning. In a flicker faster than Cana can even register, Grimmjow appears in front of one of the Wyverns and slashes it against the chest making the monster howl in pain, though the man wasn't done yet he then takes his sword and stabs the monster in the neck, killing it effectively and quickly..
"Woah." Cana is astonished at the speed that Grimmjow just moved. 'This guy's insanely strong! Why didn't he do this before?' She questions, if the boy had this level of power why didn't he use it earlier.
Seeing one of them die the other Wyverns roar in anger but are scared to attack Grimmjow seeing how quickly he killed one of them. "Tch, so now you're scared, are you gonna run away like the other one?" Grimmjow provokes the creatures but to his surprise they don't. The two Blizzardverns lift their large tails and start pounding the ground repeatedly. As they then started flapping their wings aggressively. "The fuck, what are they doing?" Grimmjow questions aloud, what are these damned things trying to accomplish? Cana eyes widened in shock; she knows what these things are planning.
"STOP THEM!" Cana screams at him, which makes him look at her. "Kill them now! If they keep this up they'll cause an-" She tries to warn him but it was too late. Suddenly the ground starts to shake and the Wyverns fly away in the air. As waves of snow begin to fall from the higher mountains heading straight for them
"Avalanche! Shit!" Grimmjow finishes her statement. The man turns to Cana and begins to run towards her. He needs to reach her because she'll die if she gets buried in her condition. Cana watched him run as the snow creeped further but before he could reach her. The avalanche covers them both as Cana's sight was then shrouded in white, as the snow pushed her into a rock underneath the white cold blanket making her lose consciousness.
-To Ichigo-
After one long and uncomfortable conversation, Wendy sat on the bed looking at her feet with her face as red as a tomato. Carla sat with a blank expression on her face and Ichigo exhaled while rubbing his eyes not believing he just had to do that. "Do you have any more questions, Wendy?" He asks the child, He hoped she didn't, he has had enough of this conversation.
"N-n-no I-i think I'm good. Big brother." Wendy stuttered out still processing what she was just told. She was expecting something, just not that. Carla sat there wondering why Ichigo even answered, he could've just told her she'll find out when she's older, but better to get that conversation out of way now.
"Well with..whatever that was out of the way. Ichigo, do you have anything to wear for this date tomorrow?" Carla asks changing the subject. Ichigo shakes his head.
"No, I'm going to have to go shopping in the morning for something. I don't even know what to get. I've never been on a date before." He reveals. Carla then chuckles and stands on the bed getting the other two's attention
"Well as a lady and your friend, I feel that it is my duty to help you on this matter." She determines with glint in her eyes. "Ichigo, come tomorrow, you will sweep that woman off her feet!" She declares proudly standing and pointing at him.
"Uh, O-okay" Ichigo sweatdropped at the feline's out of behavior actions. 'What's gotten into her?' Usually Carla is elegant and well reserved; this is just random. Carla then hums and crosses her arms. Tomorrow night, Ultear won't know what hit her. Ichigo then walks over to his bag and pulls out a white long sleeve shirt and black sweatpants.
"I'm going to go take a shower and head off to sleep. Wendy, could you set up my sleeping bag on the floor for me, if you don't mind?" He requests. "You can have the bed." He tells her, walking into the bathroom.
"Okay." She says getting up off the bed and doing what was asked of her. Minutes after Ichigo leaves the shower the trio then have a peaceful night as they all fall asleep. Having no idea of the situation that Grimmjow is in while they rest.
-Unknown Cave in the Snowy Mountains-
Cana Alberona awoke with a slight headache, sitting up the girl notices that she is in a dark cave with the only light being a fire that was burning next to her. She was covered in a blanket and had another one under her with a pillow that kept her head rested. She looked down to see that she was in an oversized black shirt also noticing her clothes and shoes laid out by the fire. Not only that, her leg was completely bandaged.
"So finally you're awake huh?" A voice echoed through the cave. She looked to see Grimmjow on the opposite side of the fire looking at her, With no shirt on and in his boxers playing with the fire with a stick. "I was wondering how long it was gonna take you." He looked back at the fire trying to keep it going.
"Grimmjow? What happened I thought we got-."
"Buried in the snow? Yeah we did, but I crawled out of the snow and was still good to move around. By some miracle, I found you, picked you up and carried you until I found this place. I had to strip you down to get the cold clothes off of you before you got hypothermia. After that I used an ointment my little sister gave me and bandaged your leg up." He explains. "Unfortunately, we won't be able to leave for a bit. You were right, a really bad storm came through."
So that's how they got here and how her leg was wrapped , 'Well that's good…wait did he say stripped down?!' Cana looks to see her bikini top was heating up by the fire. Thankfully she still had her underwear on but that changed nothing. "You didn't do anything to me did you?" She eyed Grimmjow suspiciously. While she is thankful to him for saving her, she was still a woman that was unconscious.
The young man rolled his eyes at the unsubtle accusation. "No, I'm not that kinda scumbag. There are lines that I won't even cross." He stated.
"O-oh, Sorry." she deflated. "I didn't mean to offend but still."
"Dont worry about it, I get it. There are some perverted assholes out there." He understands the woman, not being offended.
"No you saved me, it was rude to assume that, Thank you, Grimmjow." she says sincerely.
"Don't mention it." He says continuing to play with the fire. "This fire is gonna go out soon, I didn't have anything else to burn and I already used those quest papers we had." He spoke to the girl. "In a bit we're gonna be without heat."
"Did you manage to get my bags?" She questions him. He looks up, raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah, both your purse and bag are behind you." He informs her. Cana then turned around and sure enough her purse and backpack was behind her. She then grabs her purse and digs through it. Grimmjow watches the girl confused on what she's doing. She then pulls out a card with a flame symbol on it and throws it in the fire which makes the flame burn brightly as it grows and burns steadily.
"Well, that should keep the fire going for a while. That was a flame card of mine. It should burn for a bit." She tells Grimmjow with a smile on her face. Grimmjow then throws the stick he had into the flame.
"That card magic is pretty reliable." He somewhat praises the woman.
"Thank you, now I wonder.." She then goes into her backpack and rummages through it " I hope they survived the avalanche…Aha! There they are." Cana then comedically pulls three bottles of liquor out of her bag. Making Grimmjow look at her dumbfounded, This girl must be some kind of alcoholic. She then opens one and takes a chug. "Ah, nothing like a good bottle of whiskey to heat you up a bit." She says as she stops drinking with a sigh of satisfaction. Grimmjow shakes his head at the girl and her habits, but Cana then holds the bottle towards him, implying for him to take it.
Grimmjow looks at the bottle then her. "I'll pass."
"Whaat come on, just do it. You turned me down a while back. I get that but, now? You said we're not going anywhere else for a while. Soo, drink some! What is it? Are you a lightweight?' She chuckles and taunts the man playfully.
"No, I've just…never drinked before." He reveals to Cana, which makes the girl even more determined to get him to take a sip.
"That's even more of a reason. Just drink it." She insisted, shaking the bottle a bit. "Or are you scared? I knew you were a pussy" She teases playfully. Grimmjow's eye then twitched. He's not dumb she's trying to poke at his ego and god dammit…it worked.
"Fine, whatever!" He says grabbing the bottle. He stares at the bottle for a moment before looking at the girl.
"Drink, drink, drink!" She chants looking at him with anticipation. With a grunt Grimmjow then takes a taste of the liquor. He then hands it back to her, swallowing the liquid.
"Sooo, What do you think?" She asks
"It tastes like crap…but I do like the burn" He admits.
"Yayyy! we're now drinking buddies." She cheered, then took another drink of the bottle and blushed. She and Grimmjow just had an indirect kiss. She passed it back to him. He then grabs it and drinked it again afterwards he hands it to her.. "Ooh i was expecting you to just try it once but, this is even better." Cana said drinking again. "So, Grimmjow, what's your story? How'd you get so strong? Back then against the wyverns you moved so fast, it was incredible." She passes the bottle again as she is starting to feel a buzz already. "How'd you get Devil-slayer magic anyway? I know Dragon-Slayer magic has to be taught by a dragon. Were you taught by a demon or something?"
"No, a couple years ago for a quest I had to slay a monster that was slaughtering people in a town but it turns out it was a demon of Zeref and after I defeated it, it gave me Lightning Devil-slayer magic." He answers by taking another chug with a light blush forming on his cheeks feeling a buzz as well handing the bottle back "As for my strength, I train with my little sister Wendy and my...brother Ichigo." He hesitantly says the last part. Cana drinks the last bit of the bottle then opens another, handing it to Grimmjow.
"So you were given Devil-Slayer Magic after slaying a demon? That's a new one." She hummed. "Wait did you say a 'Demon of Zeref'? as in the dark wizard Zeref? One of the most powerful wizards to ever exist? You slayed a demon created by him?" She questions in shock not believing what she's hearing. Grimmjow then nods, taking a swig not even realizing how much he's drinking. "Wow..that's amazing Grimmjow."
"It's not that impressive. Though afterwards the town built a statue of me." he added, giving her the bottle back.
"Haha I bet your ego loved that, can't blame you though. I'd love it if someone made a statue of me." She chortled. "You said you have siblings? That's cool! Are they also Wizards? If so, what kind of magic do they have?" She questions.
"Yeah they are. Ichigo has Shadow-God Slayer Magic and Wendy has Sky-Dragon Slayer Magic." He tells which just catches her off guard.
"Woah! Slayer-Siblings! That's amazing. A Devil, Dragon and a God." She says in amusement.
"You've asked me things, so what about you, Cana? What's your story?" He asked, the liquor must have him in a talkative mood.
"Aw, I'm nothing special unlike you. I'm just your ordinary wizard." She chuckled, taking a bigger chug.
"You think so? That card magic isn't half bad." He tells her.
"Yeah I guess so, but..' She then raises her knees to her chest and crosses her arms around them and ponders for a moment. "Actually nevermind, here." She says passing the bottle again putting her head down.
"What's the problem?" Grimmjow prodded
"Nothing, don't worry about it"
Grimmjow stared at her for a sec, this girl was suddenly not talkative the moment she talked about herself, he then smirked deciding to use her own medicine against her to get her to talk, he then chuckled. Which made Cana look up at him confused "What's so funny?"
"You. When I was talking about myself, you were very chatty. Now you're as quiet as a mouse when it's your turn." He teases the girl "Scared that I'm going to make fun of you?"
"Yes, actually." She says in a saddened tone.
Grimmjow then sweatpanned, Wow, he is not good at this, comforting people. 'Ugh, how does Kurosaki do this?' He sat there in silence before Grimmjow spoke again "Well, I won't. Give me a shot." He says taking another chug and passes it to her. "What's on your mind?" He asks, deciding to be nice to her, guess the liquor really is getting to him.
Cana takes the bottle and drinks it. She then looked at him 'Maybe i should talk about it. I've never told anyone…besides after we leave these caves, it's not like I'll see him again. It'd be nice to get it off my chest for once.' She rationalizes in her head. "Fine, but one tease and I'll stop." She says handing the bottle back.
"Deal" Grimmjow says back, taking the bottle and finishing the last bit of it. Cana notices and grabs the last one without looking and drinks it before starting
"I…hate how weak I am." She reveals. "In my guild we have trials where some wizards are nominated to become S-class. The S-class Mage Promotion Trials. I've been chosen 4 times and every single time I fail." She announces passing him the bottle. "I need to become a S-class wizard so I can prove to myself that I'm strong so that I can finally.."
"Finally what?" Grimmjow asked, raising an eyebrow, then drank again.
"So I can finally tell my father that I'm his daughter." She tells Grimmjow looking at him.
This confuses him, why does being an S-class mage matter? "Why don't you just tell him?" He passed her the bottle questioning her, not really understanding any of this.
"My father is the strongest wizard in the entire Fairy Tail guild. I want to be able to tell him who I am, after I've been recognized as a strong wizard. I need to prove to him that I'm strong and worthy to be his daughter." She repeated drinking out of the bottle, Grimmjow then laughed a little. "Hey I said no teasing."
"I'm not teasing you, it's just funny to me because it sounds like you proved yourself enough."
"How is that?" She questions passing the bottle. He thinks that she has already proven she's strong? but she's not S-class.
"You said you were chosen 4 times. Which means your strength was seen 4 times in a row. Granted, yes while you never became S-class you were looked at as an S-class level wizard by your guild multiple times." Grimmjow attested, drinking again and passed the whiskey. "In all honesty I don't think you want to prove yourself. I think you're scared." He states
"What makes you say that?" She says defensively, Who does he think he is? Does he know how she feels at all? Grimmjow then looks at her as if he was reading a book.
"You're afraid your father is going to reject you." He says flatly.
"N-no that's not true at all I-"
"Look I barely know you, so I can't tell you what your feelings are but I can see that there is a reason you feel the need to prove yourself." He says cutting her off. "Your father is the strongest wizard in your guild and you probably feel that he wont recognize someone weak, as his daughter and that's fear. That fear is what's keeping you shackled, that fear is what's keeping you weak. So what if you're not an S-class mage? Even if you were, what if your father chose not to see you anyway?" He asks
This makes Cana look at with a shocked expression, she never thought of that. What if she does become S-class and her dad still chooses to not acknowledge her. She was beginning to overthink but Grimmjow kept going. "Cana, you need to face that fear eventually. Whether or not your S-class, at least you can say you tried. After that it's up to your father to accept you. I won't tell you to tell him, do that on your own but the more you let that fear hold your tongue, the more powerful it'll get."
Cana sat there looking at Grimmjow not believing he's giving her advice. She wanted to be mad at him for saying all this but, is he wrong? Is she scared? No, he has to be. She is not afraid, she just wants to prove herself, this is a goal she made before telling Gildarts. She then takes another sip then realizes that's the last of the bottle. She reaches for another but notices that they are all empty. "Did we drink all of them?" She questions aloud looking at the bottles.
"I think so." Grimmjow commented. Cana then looks at him.
"And you're still sitting up? And this is your first time drinking?! Wow you're a natural drinker." She compliments him. "But I guess that's the end of our drinking session. Which means no more talking." She announced in a fun tone but truthfully she doesn't want to talk about Gildarts anymore.
"You just mean no more talking about this conversation, but i didn't have anything to say about it anymore any way." He then reaches into his bag that was next to him and pulls out fruits that he took from home. "You want some?" He offers, chewing on an apple. Cana then reaches for a peach that he had and takes a bite out of it.
"Thank you." She says being grateful for food. The two sat in silence that was occasionally broken by the fire popping. She then looks at Grimmjow who was staring at the ceiling in the cave while eating, probably thinking to himself about something. At first he was rough around the edges when they first met and was brushing her off, now he had shared some drinks with her and gave her some advice about her problems in a cave that he took her into after he saved her.
This guy…he isn't so bad, once you actually talk to him. Not only that, he's quite the looker and he's has a nice body. She doesn't know if it's the booze talking but, maybe… 'Ah what the hell, I'm going for it. After this, I'll probably never see him again' Cana finishes the peach. "Hey Grimmjow?" She started as she got up and walked over to him
"Hmm?" He asked with his mouth full. He then noticed that she got up and was now over him. Swallowing the fruit in his mouth, he then looks at her with a confused expression. "What?" he asks. Cana then pushes him down as he falls on his back. "What the hell? What are you-" he says, startled by the sudden push but Cana then sits on his lap and puts her hands on his bare chest.
"Grimmjow.." Cana says, looking at him with hungry eyes. "I'm cold." she breathed. "I want you to help warm me up."
Grimmjow is confused at first but then thinks about what she is saying. 'Warm her up? What does she-..oh, OH! She couldn't be trying to say that she wants to-' Grimmjow is then cut off from his thinking as Cana puts her lips on his kissing him deeply, then leans back and licks her lips tasting the alcohol from earlier. "Cana, you're drunk and you are-" he was stopped by her putting a finger on his lips. She then takes off the shirt she's wearing, throwing it to the side exposing her body to him.
"I can hold my liquor, trust me. I'm no damn lightweight. I know what I'm doing and I know what I want, do you?" She asked him seductively. Grimmjow stared at her for a moment, She looked quite serious. It could be that the liquor had gotten to him more than Cana because in this light she does look kinda…well, sexy. Still they're both drunk to a degree and...
"Ah screw it." He says rolling her around to where he's on top of her.
"O-oh!" She exclaimed with a deep crimson blush appearing on her face. She wasn't expecting that.
"If we're gonna do this, then we're doing it my way." he smirked
"Sounds good to me." She obliges, kissing Grimmjow again who returns it. The fire starts to dwindle out as the two lose themselves to pleasure for the rest of the night.
-Next morning with Ichigo-
Waking up with a yawn, Ichigo looks over to see Wendy and Carla sleeping on the bed. Smiling seeing his sister and Carla, he then gets up and heads to the bathroom to take care of his oral hygiene. After finishing leaves the bathroom and walks over to his things, grabbing his clothes to change.
"Ichigo-nii? You're awake already?" Wendy said, rubbing her eyes.
"Yeah I am, I'm about to head out to go buy some clothes for the date." Ichigo says walking towards the bathroom to change his clothes.
"Ah okay!" Wendy responds, Cana then wakes up with a yawn.
"You're both up early." She states groggily.
"Well I have a date to get ready for, remember?" He chuckles, closing the door behind him.
"Oh yes! Wendy after Ichigo is done. We must get ready as we will go shopping with him." She tells the girl. Wendy then nods .
"Yeah!"
The sun was shining brightly on the streets of Crocus making the city look incredibly beautiful. Ichigo was walking with Wendy beside him holding Carla in her. Currently Carla was lecturing Ichigo about how to treat a lady while he is on a date. "Make sure to always open the door for her and pull her seat back when you reach your table." She stated
"That sounds pretty normal. I had assumed you were supposed to do that." Ichigo responds
"Well, you'd be surprised how many men can't grasp a simple concept like that." She retorts. "Try to always keep her attention, be charismatic but don't be overbearing." She informs him.
"Once again, that sounds pretty normal." Ichigo says. Does he even need help? This sounds pretty easy in his opinion.
"I get that it does but we must go over everything." Carla says proudly
"Wow Carla, you are very invested in Ichigo-nii's date." Wendy observes.
"Well I think Ichigo is a great and honest individual and he deserves to be happy." Carla responds. Ichigo looks at her with a smile.
"Yeah I think so too!" Wendy agrees
"Thank you both for that." Ichigo replies to both of them. He then sees a clothing store and stops. "Well this is the first stop" he announces walking into the store. The door opening caused a bell above it to be heard, getting the attention of the cashier. Who then walks up to them . She was a petite tall pale woman with blond hair and brown eyes. She wore black slacks with white button up shirt with a black bow tie.
"Hello! Welcome to Crocus Formal Attire. The best clothing store in Fiore. My name is Misty, how can I help you today?" She greeted them. Ichigo then step forward
"HI, could you help me find something I would wear on a date." He asked honestly.
"Sure! I'd be more than happy to. Right this way." She motions her hand turning around. Walking to a certain section full of tuxedos and suits with a podium in the middle . "Is there a specific color you're looking for?" She questions wanting to know what she should be trying to find for him.
"Black! Also, can we get it tailored?" Carla answers the question for him. Ichigo then looks at her. "Trust me." She affirms
"Absolutely, please step on that podium." She requests. Ichigo then walks and steps on the podium and Misty then takes his measurements. After a couple minutes she then steps back "Okay you can get off."
Ichigo steps off then looks at Misty "Is that it?"
"Yup, all done!" she chirped, "You can expect it to be down by tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?' He questions, crap he needs the suit today.
"Yes we will have it done by tomorrow or you can pay extra and I can have it down for you, lets say..6pm?" She offers with a smile.
"Yes, that's actually perfect!" Wendy says
"Great, follow me to the register and you can pay for the service." Misty says.
Leaving the store, the trio then walked around to find a flower shop. "So Ichigo-nii what kind of flowers are you getting for her?" Wendy looks at him curiously.
"Roses." He answers and turns to Carla "Are those the right kind to get?" he questions the feline.
"Yes, there is nothing wrong with them but let's not settle on those at the moment while they are good, roses are clichė thing to get." She informs him. The group then sees a store beautifully decorated with flowers.
"Wow those flowers are so pretty!" Wendy points running to them and smelling them. "They smell so nice!." Wendy beams as she walks in the store. Ichigo laughs at his sister and walks behind her. "Woah! This place is like a paradise." Wendy says, looking at the shop.
"Why thank you. That's so sweet to say." A middle-aged woman says behind the register. 'Hi I'm Sally, welcome! What are you looking for" She says sweetly, looking at Wendy.
"We're looking for flowers so that my brother can give them to his date tonight!"
"Oh, I assume you want to get roses?" She asks Ichigo.
"Yeah but actually do you have something else? Roses are fine but just in case, do you have something else that would be seen as more original?" He asks.
"Hmm, roses usually are the choice for dates and romance when it comes to flowers." She then sat there thinking. "Oh! I know the perfect kind. She then goes towards a group of pink flowers in a pot and brings it to Ichigo. "While they aren't the symbol of romance like roses, these tulips are the best substitute. "
"Those will be perfect!" Wendy exclaims deciding on the flower. Sally then notices the sword on Wendy's sees the hilt.
"Oh that's a beautiful hilt on that sword of yours." Sally says complimenting the weapon. "Your hilt is the White Freesia flower which means innocence and purity. That's such a good choice for an adorable little angel like you." the woman gushes looking at Wendy who blushes at what the woman said. "Come let's do the transaction so I can make this into a bouquet for you."
The Cait shelter trio had been walking the streets of Crocus all day as the sun began to set. Ichigo couldn't lie, he was having fun hanging out with the other two. They were helping him out more than he realized, especially Carla who was truly helping him the most. "You guys think the suit is almost done?" He questions the two. "It's getting late and we should head back to the room so I can get ready."
"Yes, it should be done by now but you're going to the room alone." Carla announces "Wendy and I are going to hangout on our own while you are enjoying your date." the cat informs as Wendy began to walk the opposite way than her brother. "Ichigo you got this, but I have one more piece of advice for you."
"What is it?" Ichigo questions the feline.
"Be yourself." She says with a genuine smile. Ichigo smiles looking at the two.
"Bye Ichigo-nii, have fun!" As she runs down another street. Getting out of Ichigo's sight. Wendy looks at her cat best friend. "So we're spying on him right?"
"Absolutely! I have to see this" Carla says with a devious smile.
Helloooo! This is the chapter I've been working on, sadly I won't be posting for a good bit but I swear I won't disappear like I have before! I'm trying to make sure that these next few chapters are more detailed. By the way, can I talk about how cool it is when I see reviews you guys put? When I first made this story I was really scared that no one would like it but the reviews you guys put in always puts a smile on my face. I've learned that reviews I receive, good or bad, should be appreciated. Truth be told, that's the reason I decided to revive this story. Well that's all i wanted to say
Bye-Bye
