Affected By Death

Chapter 13: Drunk and Demanding

"Whoa Rukia, I'm serious, I don't think we should do-" Ichigo is trying to save himself from her anger in the morning, but Rukia reaches around with lightning speed and smacks his ass so hard, he lets out a loud squawk and then covers his mouth as he blushes from her boldness.

"Ichigo I wasn't kidding you. I can hardly stand it, you look so gorgeous in that suit, and now I want you out of it. Out of all of it. Don't make me tie you up..." Rukia trails off but licks her lips as though she's a starving woman ready to receive a thirteen course meal.

"Rukia!" Ichigo hisses, but she gives him an anticipatory smile and decides to threaten him.

"Don't make me rip it off of you! You know I will!"

"Stop it you're out of control!" Ichigo is trying to stay quiet, but he quickly realizes that he's on the losing end of this battle. He starts to unbutton his jacket, and Rukia stops in her tracks, just staring at him.

"That's better..." She practically purrs, and Ichigo lets out a loud breath of air as he stares at her wide eyed.

The pink tinge in his cheeks isn't gone, and Rukia finds that to be sexy beyond belief. The jacket goes over the chair of the desk, and Rukia starts to breathe just a little bit harder.

"At least tell me...why so sudden...why are you so set on this?" Ichigo just has to know so he can remind her in the morning, that she's the one forcing it.

"It's something Rangiku said to me." Rukia says quietly, and Ichigo resists the urge to roll his eyes.

"That woman is trouble." He grumbles, as he loosens his tie, pulls it off, throws it on top of the jacket, and Rukia bites her lip.

She visibly trembles...so he unbuttons the dress shirt next.

"She said it would hurt the first time...and that I might not want to do it again for a few days, a week, or even up to two weeks since I've never done it before...and I don't want it to hurt on my wedding night Ichigo..." Rukia's voice cracks as the dress shirt gets thrown on the other garments, and Ichigo is naked from the waist up.

"Oh..."

What in the hell am I supposed to say to that? How in the hell do I argue against that! How is it that such a troublesome woman has not only prompted me proposing to Rukia for real, but has Rukia ready to do it with me before we get married! Now I'll have to do something nice for that witch!

"The pants too Ichigo." Rukia's voice leaves no room for arguments, and Ichigo wonders if he should be feeling violated...but then again, his whole body is just tingling in anticipation of what his drunken fiancé will do next.

.................................

A scream from upstairs makes Yuzu flinch, and Karin looks up at the ceiling.

"Tell me that scream did not just come from Ichi-ni..." Karin sighs and shakes her head in dismay.

"Karin-chan...we should get out of these dresses." Yuzu says, tugging on her sister's arm and looking upstairs nervously.

"You think I'm going up there? You're insane. I'm tempted to go for a walk, but in this dress...at this hour...if anybody sees me I'll never live it down." Karin grumbles and Isshin starts to laugh.
