"Ichigo," Angel's voice slightly squeaked as she looked up. She was about to ask what he was doing but her breath got sucked back in when she saw the intensity of his amber eyes on hers. For some unknown reason she swallowed but dared not break eye contact. Then, she saw him leaning closer.
Ichigo didn't know what the fuck he was doing. Hell, he wasn't planning any of this to happen when he first thought of bringing Angel to the beach. But here he was, holding Angel against his half-naked form so tightly that no air could pass in between them. Nor did he expect her to look up at him with those innocent looking eyes that were making his heart beat faster than it normally does. And now, when he should have just released his hold on her, his head started moving on its own and was leaning forward.
But what was even more interesting was the fact that Angel wasn't moving away.
Their noses touched and he stopped, barely two inches away from touching her sweet lips. "Angel…" he breathed out. He felt Angel shivering against him as his breath fanned over her lips, warming it up even more as she lifted her head to close the remaining gap—
"Gaugh, I still don't know why I had to come!"
"Don't say that! It's been awhile since we've been here so let's enjoy ourselves."
"That's right! Today we'll play with daddy as we run along the beach—"
"Shut your mouth, old man—"
Megan Walker's sentence got stuck in the middle of her throat when she opened the door to see none other than her older brother, wearing nothing but a pair of boxers, holding a young attractive woman in his arms, their faces merely a few inches away from each other as they stared back at her with the same amount of shock in their eyes.
"Megan-chan, what's wrong—" This time Megumi was shocked as she passed the threshold behind her twin sister to see what she was gaping at.
Ichigo could feel sweat forming at the back of his neck. He should quickly release Angel and try to act like nothing was going on but he was too shocked to do anything. Not to mention the fact that if these two were here, then surely…
"Aira! Why are our daughters so mean to me!—" Jacod stopped his rambling when he entered the house to see not only his daughters standing frozen, but his son…with a woman…and his arms wrapped around her… Jacod stood gapping at the image, dropping all the luggage that he was carrying under both arms. Then, a huge smile came across his face as he squealed like a little fangirl. "KYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Angel groaned for the nth time that day as she heard Ichigo, who had donned on some clothes now, punching his father to death in the living room.
"I told you we're not like that!" Ichigo screamed.
"Don't-be shy-my son-" Jacob grunted with a smug tone in between each punch, "You-are a man-and-I want-grandchildren-"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" With the remainder of his strength, Ichigo quickly threw his father against the wall, hoping beyond hope it would knock him unconscious.
But Jacob was never the type of man to fall that easily. He immediately jumped up and rushed over to Angel who was in the kitchen. "Angel-chan!" he squealed as he brought her into a huge bear hug, "Tell me, are you pregnant yet?"
"EH?!" Angel gasped.
"Fuck, let her go old man!" Ichigo stomped over and tried to pull Jacod's arms away but, too happy to know his son wasn't gay, he easily evaded Ichigo's hands and also brought him in for a hug, crushing the two against each other.
"AIRA! WE'RE GOING TO BE GRANDPARENTS!"
"Oh fuck," Ichigo muttered.
"That's enough old man," Megan came over and smacked her father over the head with a thick book, "If you continue this you might not just make them deaf but crush them to death.
"Nonsense! My hug will not kill them but further unite them as one!" Jacob screamed.
"ERRRRR, that's enough!" Ichigo mustered up all of his strength and pulled his father's arms off of them. "Why don't you just die and burn in hell!" he grabbed an arm and flung his father again, but this time out the open window. Ichigo huffed several times as oxygen finally came into his crushed lungs. He stood up straight and looked down. "You okay?"
Angel, who had fallen on her knees when Ichigo yanked Jacob's arm off of them, was taking in deep breath as well. "Do I look okay?" she glared at him.
Ichigo extended a hand to her. "Geez, it's not like I didn't suffer too."
"It's your fault in the first place, Ichi-nii," Megan said as she smirked at her brother and the woman who was now on her feet. "You shouldn't have come here just to get into someone's pants."
Ichigo's entire body immediately reddened. "W-WH-WHAT THE FUCK?!"
Megan smirk grew as she noticed the growing blush on both Ichigo and Angel's faces. "Heh, it's not like I'm wrong."
Ichigo brought up his arm and tried to cover the red. "D-don't talk shit like that Megan! Who in the world would want to go out with a midget like her?!" he pointed to Angel.
Angel immediately forgot about Megan's comment and glared at Ichigo. "What does that mean?" she snarled through gritted teeth as she kicked him on the shin.
"OW! What was that for?!" he glared at her, hopping on one leg while massaging the bruised leg with the other.
"Hmph, you deserved it, stupid strawberry," she crossed her arms.
"Fucking midget," Ichigo growled, showing her his fangs.
Megan sighed. "Can't you guys keep your sexual pats in the bedroom?"
"W-wha-wh-MEGAN!" Ichigo yelled.
"Onii-chan! Don't raise your voice like that!" Megumi pouted as she came out of her bedroom and to where everyone else was, "The neighbors might come over."
"Impossible," Megan waved her hand back and forth, "They're way too used to us to know this is natural."
"Still," Megumi continued pouting.
"Why is my little flower so angry? You're making daddy feel scared," Jacob wiggled through the window and towards his daughter. He then ripped open his shirt and shouted, "Come here to daddy's bosom so I may make you feel-"
"Don't even think about finishing that sentence!" Ichigo and Megan yelled as they both threw a punch at their father's face, successfully knocking him out on the ground this time.
"Che," Ichigo snorted, "It gets harder and harder to shut him up. By the way," he looked at his twin sisters and glared, "Why are you guys here?"
Karin shrugged her shoulders. "The old goat wanted to visit you in Tokyo. But after finding out you came here, we were forced to pack all of our stuff and come down here instead. And let me tell you, I'm sure the old man broke more than ten traffic law just to get down here by today."
Ichigo raised a brow. "Who told dad I was here?"
"He called Rodriguez-san!" Megumi smiled.
Ichigo silently stared at his sisters, trying to comprehend what Megumi just said. Mark? 'Hat-n-Cloggs' Rodriguez Mark? MARK ?!
Angel slowly stepped away and covered her ears.
"MARK?!" Ichigo yelled, shaking the entire house. "THAT FUCKING BASTARD! I'M GOING TO BURN HIS HAT TO HELL!" He quickly grabbed his phone and dialed a number.
"Ring...ring...ring...ri-Hai! Moshi moshi!"
"MARK!" Ichigo yelled into the phone, "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU TELL MY FATHER?!"
"Ara, Walker-kun! How's you're trip so far? Did you and Bushū-san take a stroll on the sandy beach or did you two immediately jump in to the sack-"
"STOP TALKING SHIT AND ANSWER MY QUESTION!"
"What are you-ara, what are you doing, Lucy-chan~" Mark whined on the other line before Ichigo heard the phone being taken away from the shopkeeper.
"Oi Ichigo," Lucy suddenly came on, "So how's it going over there with Bushū?"
Ichigo groaned. "You two are way too alike."
"I know," she was practically grinning even in her tone.
"Anyways, ask Mark what the fuck he told my father? I'm seriously going to burn his hat when I return!"
Lucy chuckled. "Calm down. Mark didn't tell your father anything. I did."
Ichigo paused before a brow went up. "You? Why the hell would you do something like that?!"
"Psch, only Mark agreed not to tell your father anything; I never made such a promise. So when he called I gave him the news of you taking your beautiful roommate to the beach house to make him a grandfather."
Ichigo groaned even more as he rubbed his face in irritation. "Why the fuck did you do that for?"
"Just to have some fun," she answered, "It's been way too long since we had any drama around here."
"Fucking bitch," Ichigo growled, "Don't think this is over!" he yelled before shutting his phone off.
"Psch, stop threatening other people. Your hair is loud as it is so we don't need your mouth to be loud too," Megan glared, "And why didn't you tell us that you're living with your girlfriend...no scratch that; why didn't you tell us you have a girlfriend in the first place?!"
Ichigo groaned in annoyance. "Megan, I swear there's nothing going on between me and Angel."
"Sure, and I secretly worship the Barbie" she looked at him sarcastically.
Megumi shook her head at the rest of her family members before turning to Angel and smiling her sweet smile. "Konbanwa, Angel-neesan. My name is Walker Megumi. I do hope our family didn't change your opinion of onii-chan. He's actually a really nice guy and our father is really sweet if you get passed his crazy antics."
Angel nervously chuckled. "I can see that. Anyways, it's a pleasure to meet you too." She gave the younger girl a small bow but when she straightened up again, she was forced to take a step back when she noticed Megumi was right in front of her face with sparkling wide eyes and her hands folded under her chin as if she was seeing a fairy tale love story come true. "Ano..." Angel stuttered, "Megu-Megumi-chan-"
"Where did you and onii-chan meet? How did you two fall in love? Have you two been living together for long? What led you to believe he's the one? Does he treat you well? When were you planning to meet our family? Can we meet your family? How old are you? Where do you work? Are you guys going to get married this winter or possibly next summer? When will you-"
"That's enough Megumi," Megan placed a hand against her sister's mouth, "I think you're scaring her even more." She then looked at her brother's 'girlfriend' and smirked. "Sorry about that. Our father is a bit crazy, my sister might seem normal but she has a little bit of the old goat in her. Our brother is a dumbass who talks with his fists then his mouth. But I'm the sane one in this family so you can come to me if Ichi-nii or the others do anything to make you feel uncomfortable," she smirked.
Angel nervously chuckled back. "A-arigato, Megan-chan."
"Take out the '-chan' and then 'your welcome,'" Megan smirked.
Ichigo groaned at what was happening before him. "Why is this happening to me?" he mumbled.
"Don't act so depressed, Ichi-nii. You would have had to introduce her to us sooner or later so why get pissed now?" Megan asked.
Ichigo sighed. Megan, I'm telling you: there's nothing going-"
"Ichigo."
The orange head turned around only to have his face collide with his now-conscious father's fist. He flew to the wall and slid to the ground after knocking into it. "What the fuck!" he yelled once he got his mind straight again.
Jacod stood with his arms crossed over his chest and his legs spread apart as he glared down at his son. "Are you trying to say you're living with a beautiful woman who has absolutely no relationship with you whatsoever? And you even bring her down here to our 'Walker-love-nest'!? Are you up to something suspicious boy?!"
"No!" Angel suddenly jumped in, surprising everyone in the room including herself. "I mean, um...Ichigo and I-well, our relationship is still new so we're still not comfortable about telling people that we're...um, that we're 't-together," she smiled nervously.
Everyone was staring at Angel as seconds rolled by. Ichigo was looking at her as if she was crazy (and she was sending the 'what-else-could-I-do' look), Megan had a smug look on her, Megumi still had her puppy-dog eyes, and Isshin...well-
"KYA!" Jacob squealed and hugged Angel to him again. "Welcome to the family, Amgel-chan! I can't wait to hear the church bells, or better yet, I can't wait to hear the pitter-patter of my grandchildren at home! YAY!" In the next second he grabbed everyone and was in the middle of Ichigo's room. "I will allow you two to share the bedroom together! I know it's what my future grandchild would want!"
"WHAT?!" Ichigo and Angel yelled.
Megan walked over and smacked her father from behind his head. "Are you stupid? They're not even married. And I doubt they would want to get busy when they know you're next door and most likely trying to listen to everything."
"Well, I think it's a good idea. After all, they're living together so they must share a bed. This would be natural for them," Yuzu added her two cents, "Besides, there's no other bed for Angel-neesan to use."
"I like how this vacation is turning out!" Isshin laughed menacingly. He looked at his two daughters and ushered them out of the room. "Now let's leave them alone to settle in before dinner."
"Hai," they simultaneously answered.
The two stared in disbelief as the twins walked out and Jacob closed the door behind them, though not before throwing them a knowing wink and a thumb's up. Now, the two 'lovebirds' were alone in their 'love nest,' just as Jacod had beautifully planned since the start of this trip.
Angel reluctantly looked behind her and cringed when she only saw one bed. "Fuck."
When he heard her voice, Ichigo looked over at her and turned to look back to see what she was swearing about. He saw the problem. "Fuck," he copied.
Angel walked over and let out a groan of exhaustion as she got on the bed and lied down.
Ichigo raised an eyebrow. "Oi, midget, what do you think you're doing?"
"Isn't it obvious? I'm getting comfortable," Angel sighed as she stretched her muscles.
"Yeah, on my bed," Ichigo glared.
"Well technically it's our bed now," Angel scoffed, "And I got here first so I'm taking the bed."
Ichigo's eyebrows furrowed as he walked over and stood next to the bed, glaring down at the midget. "Move," he ordered.
