Ichigo walked over to the bar with Rukia holding his hand and Grimmjow on the other side. He was thoroughly irritated and he was never a good person at hiding it. The orange haired male's shoulders were tense once he sat and leaned against the bar. He was holding Rukia's hand a little too tightly. Ichigo's jaw ticked irritably as he ground his teeth. He ordered a drink and downed it quickly, soon asking for another round.
"What the hell is that guy's problem?" Ichigo asked angrily as he stared straight ahead.
Grimmjow took a seat next to him. "It's not his fault. He has a perfectly good reason for being an asshole to everyone."
Ichigo's head snapped to look at Grimmjow. "Then whose fault is it and what reason would that be?"
Grimmjow turned and rested his elbows on the bar. "Listen, Nnoitra is a fucking douche bag, we all know that, but he's lived a shitty life. He's seen things that no child should witness…really sickening shit, you hear me? I'm not asking you to have pity on him because none of us do and it would insult the shit out of him. Either ignore him like a pussy or fight him. Fighting and being so aggressive is his outlet."
Ichigo sat thinking for a moment. He knew himself to be a reasonable man. He had seen how people could turn out due to the terrible life they were given. Ichigo still thought he was a douche bag. That was alright, Ichigo would get him back once his arm was healed.
Ichigo looked over at Grimmjow. "Yeah alright."
Grimmjow smiled and smacked him on the back. "Okay, let's get back."
X—X—X—X—X—X—X
"Nnoitra you are impossible," Nell spat. "You had no reason at all to start anything."
"Tch," he scoffed. "I told you my reason already. I wanted to."
"I doubt you will be able to get to him like that ever again," Nell said quietly before turning away from him.
The song that was playing finished and once it was done, the DJ got on the mic. Nell turned and realized there were instruments on stage. She also noticed it was more packed than usual tonight. Was there a concert going on tonight and none of her friends knew that? Maybe it was a local band. Nelliel knew that sometimes they did have nights where bands got to come up and perform. This would be interesting
"Alright are you guys ready?!" he shouted into the mic.
The crowed screamed in response. Ichigo and the others came and joined them in the crowd. "What's going on tonight?" Ichigo asked.
"The band Pumpkinbreath is performing tonight!" Szayel replied, clapping his hands together.
What?! Nelliel couldn't believe her ears. A band like Pumkinbreath was coming to this rinky-dink club? They were one of her favorite bands and were actually on her list of bands to see live. She jumped up and down and grabbed Ichigo into a tight hug, squealing as she did so.
"Are you serious?!" Ichigo and Nnoitra exclaimed at the same time.
They stopped to glare and growl at each other. Nell released Ichigo and stepped between them, grasping each of their hands. "Come on, let's go see."
Nnoitra snatched himself out of her grasp, but she ignored him and kept walking. Nnoitra moved in front of her and began shoving people out of his way until they were at the front of the stage. No one opposed him about it either. Nell felt bad for those behind him because he was so much taller than everyone else. He was such a jerk and it was clear he was only moving that close to get on people's nerves. Seriously, did he have to try and start a fight all the time? Neliel didn't know how she was going to deal with this. He was going to probably try her again and she would have to beat the hell out of him. Then again, he was stubborn and would probably just try harder.
