ＤＯＮＴ ＬＥＴ ＧＯ (Byakuya Kuchiki/Ichigo Kurosaki)

ＤＯＮＴ ＬＥＴ ＧＯ (Byakuya Kuchiki/Ichigo Kurosaki)- 19

"GOOD MORNING Ichigooooo!"

"Hey dad." Ichigo mumbles waiting for his father's foot to smash into his face. He didn't have the energy to dodge him, or care if his nose gets broken. The orange-haired teen waited to hear the crack of his nose. When he heard nothing he turned around from his desk. Checking to see if his dad had accidental kicked himself in the balls again.

"Where's Byakuya-kun?" His dad looks down at the bed seeing Renji drooling all over his son's pillow.

"He is gone." Ichigo turns back around tightening his jaw, hoping his father will go away.

"Oh..." Isshin rubs at his beard digesting the chilling of the air after mentioning Byakuya's name. "He coming back tonight? Yuzu is convinced he doesn't eat enough."

"I wouldn't hold my breath." Ichigo mumbles flipping through his text book with a fury. I don't want to talk about him.

"Wait! Isn't he the guy who tried to rob the clinic last year?" Isshin points at Renji's sleeping form passed out on Ichigo's bed.

"U-Um.." Oh God I forgot about that! Ichigo furrows his eyebrows together, trying to come up with an excuse. "Um.." Ichigo suddenly regrets not leaving Renji's drunken ass back at his hiding spot.

"Eh, I must be confusing him with someone else." Isshin watches Ichigo's shoulders sag in relief before he leaves the room.

Soon as the door clicks shut Ichigo feels Rukia's reiatsu blow into his room through the window. The last person he wanted to see was a Kuchiki. She always had a sixth sense when it comes to his moods.

"Hey Ichigo!" Rukia swoops in through the window landing on Renji's stomach.

"I didn't ask for more rice I swear!" Renji yells his arms flailing in the air waking up. "Rukia!"

"What were you dreaming about?" Rukia stomps her foot down on his gut grinning like a cat.

"Oi! That hurts!" Renji looks around with a confused look of his face. "How did I get here? The last thing I remember-" Renji's eyes grow round as he recalls sitting on Byakuya's naked lap and then... licking him. I'm a dead man. I licked him! Then I said...

"I carried you here last night after you passed out."

"Oh, thanks Ichigo." Renji replies nervously before Rukia kicks him in the face. "What was that for you little devil?!"

"For making a fool out of yourself last night!" Rukia jumps down landing on Ichigo's bedroom floor.

"Y-you know about l-last night?" Renji felt like he was going to hurl as he turns his gaze in Ichigo's direction. Ichigo is sitting at his desk re-reading the page on photosynthesis for the third time.

"Nii-sama said if you weren't back by lunch, that he would put you on the deserters list. What the hell did you do last night?"

"I-I"

"It doesn't matter just get your ass back there NOW!" Rukia screams pointing her finger out the window. Renji pops out of his gigai and flash steps away from Ichigo's house.

"Ichigo, Captain Ukitake asked me to relay a message to you."

"What's that?" Ichigo doesn't turn for fear of her noticing his sadness. He doesn't want to talk about Byakuya, to his own sister. He would just pretend everything is fine. He can do that, after all he did it when his mom died. The pain will go away in time, as long as he doesn't have to look at him.

"Your presence has been requested by the Captain's Ukitake and Hitsugaya, also Commander Yamamoto's name is on this." She hands him the rolled up official looking scroll watching him opening it with a shine in hers eyes.

"They want me to stay in Soul Society during Golden Week?"

"Yeah." Rukia face takes a serious expression and she puts her hand on his shoulder. "Ichigo...It's...important."

"Sorry, Rukia the last place I want to go is there." He tosses the scroll in his trash can then returns to reading his book.

"Ichigo, if you refuse..."

"What? What can they possibly do to me!"

"They found Orihime."

"Shit." Ichigo froze, all his thoughts grinding to a halt. How he was so careful! Only the ones who went into Hueco Mundo knew what really happened to her. It's what she did.

"Ichigo, you understand what this means, what's at stake."

"Yeah...I'll be there."
