P2 of my IchiRuki story, enjoy !!
"Ichigo?" Rukia said, and bent down closer to him.
'Words..he's saying words!!' Rukia thought, and pressed her ear closer to his mouth. She could hear the words:
"Rukia..you..too..."
She started crying again, she then felt a hand touch her face. She stopped crying, and looked down at Ichigo.
"Don't cry, I told you, Rukia, I love you too,midget."
Ichigo had decided to add midget just to lighten the mood, since he had just died. That's when he wondered,
'I was dead, how did I come back to life? Oh well, I'm alive, and here's Rukia..'
Rukia hiccuped, and then smiled.
"Ichigo.." She muttered, and remembered his wounds. She turned to Orihime , who was remembering when she was going to kiss ichigo, but didn't.
"Inoue, you should try healing Ichigo again. Rukia didn't want to leave, but knew she had to so that Inoue could heal Ichigo. When she tried leaving though, Ichigo grabbed her wrist.
"Don't..leave..please..don't go."
Rukia grabbed his hand, and smiled.
"I'm not leaving, I swear." he then laid his hand on the ground, and limped over to Byakuya, who had opened up one of his arms.
Byakuya knew how it felt, when someone he loved had died. Even though, he had never relized that rukia had felt this way for the strawberry, for Ichigo. So he just let Rukia sniffle, and cry into his Captain's cape. This time, and this time only, he didn't mind.
Ichigo watched Rukia. He watched her with eyes that now had much expression. He watched to make sure that she wouldn't disappear again, ever again.
'After this is over, I'll something special, just for her, just for Rukia.'
20 minutes had passed, and everyone was now sitting down , when Orihime finished healing Ichigo. Ichigo tried getting up, but Inoue was quick to say something.
"Kurosaki-kun!"
But Ichigo ignored her, when he stood up, he wobbled as Rukia ran to his side.
She ran into his open arms, and Ichigo practically fell backwards.Instead, Rukia helped him sit down. She ran her hands over where she had seen the blood.
"Looks like Orihime's going to have to heal you next, midget." He said jokingly with her when he saw all the blood on her Kimono.
Rukia laughed,"It's not my fault that you attract so much trouble." Rukia said.
Their eyes then met, and Ichigo murmured Rukia's name. He then bent down to kiss her.
Renji, meanwhile, turned bright red, and coughed loudly. Yachiru,Retsu,and Nemu had the biggest smiles on their faces, and Zaraki was snickering while Yachiru also clapped. It seemed like such a seriously time was in the passed. Ichigo got mad when Renji interupted a big moment for him, and turned towards him.
"What the heck is your problem!" "My problem?!You were just about the kiss Rukia!" Renji then regreted that.
"Why, are you jealous?" Ichigo teased.
"No, I just think one kiss is enough today...that's all."
"Hm?" Ichigo was confused.'I haven't kissed Rukia yet...have I?'"What, you're confused now?! She already kissed you once baka!" Renji yelled.
"What's your problem Renji!? You seriously had to tell him?!" Rukia yelled.
"Ya! I did! So what?!"
"You really are jealous then!"
"NO!"
"Hehe, Renji, you liked me!"
"NO! NO! NO!"
Renji then turned away from the two.
Ichigo then looks at Rukia.
"So you really did kiss me?"
Rukia turned bright red.
"SO! I thought you were dead."
"Well I was! I just came back to life..."
Rukia looked back at him, and smiled. This time Ichigo wasn't going to pass up the chance. He took Rukia in his arms, and kissed her.
The surprised Rukia opened up her eyes real wide at first, and then kissed him back. They suddenly became aware of everyone staring at them, and stopped.
"I'm glad this war is over...for now." Ichigo said to her.
"I'm glad this has just begun...for forever." Rukia said, and kissed him again, and this time, she never wanted to let go.
