[✅] Ichigo & Kisuke: Forever and Always

Chapter 18

Slowly, you make your way down the stairs and to the waiting arms of Ichigo and Kisuke. You kiss each on the cheek and whisper softly to Kisuke before smiling at the other party attenders.

"Thank you for the dress, Kisuke." Kisuke chuckles softly as he gently leads you by the elbow to a small table that is serving the drinks. You take a glass filled with a weak but deleciously flavored (flavor wine). Savoring the wine carefully, you glance around the room.

"Actually, Ichigo picked out the dress. You look gorgeous though."

"Really? Ichigo has a pretty good taste." You run a hand gentley over soft fabric of the dress while lost in thought. A gentle kiss on your cheek alerts you of Ichigo's pressence. You greet him happily.

"Are you surprised?"

"Hm?"

"The dress. Are you surprised I picked it out?" Ichigo looks at you curiously with his head cocked to the side like he does sometimes. You blush a little. He's adorable when he doea that.

"I'm pleasantly surprised. It's a beautiful dress Ichigo. Thank you." Ichigo smiles a little in a satisfied manor.

"Kisuke payed for it though. You should thank him." You let out a quiet exaspherated sigh before rasing the wine glass for a toast.

"Gentleman, a toast for a wonderful dress, and amazing friends." The three of you toast each other before Ichigo asks for a dance. You catch Kisuke send a glare at Ichigo but you shrug it off. As Ichigo leads you to the dance floor while holding your hand in a prince like manor, you look at those around you. A feeling of Deja Vû begins to form. Do you know these people? No. No, you don't think you do anyway... But dang. There was something really famikiar about that short girl with black hair. Realization hits you. That girls name is Rukia Kuchiki but... How do you know her name? You continue to dance with Ichigo as you wonder at the girl your brain has labeled as Rukia. You force these thoughts away and continue to enjoy danceing with Ichigo. At the end of the song, he kisses your palm gently. Letting his lips linger there he whispers,

"I loved our dance together." You smile while your head swims with questions. You were getting fragments of thoughts. Has Ichigo said this to you before tonight? No. You've never danced with him before tonight... Suddenly a shooting pain aches through your lower stomache. You bend over in pain. The your vision turns black...
