Angel looked back up at him with the same deadly look. "No," she sneered.
Annoyed beyond hell at how this day had turned out, Ichigo just decided to take matters into his own hands. Without another word, he pushed Angel over to the other side of the bed.
"Ah! Ichigo, what are you doing?!" Angel squeaked.
But Ichigo merely pushed her until she was lying near the edge on the other side. "I'm not going to sleep on the floor so deal with it," he snapped at her before climbing into the bed and lying directly next to her.
Angel sat up straight and looked at him with wide eyes. "Are you insane?! Are you insisting we sleep together?!"
"Psch," he scoffed again as he closed his eyes and folded his arms behind his head. "I never insisted that. I'm merely saying that it's my bed so I'm sleeping on it. If you don't want to sleep on the floor then just deal with it!"
Angel's mouth gapped like a fish several times. "So you're fine with sleeping with me?"
"Why should I care?" Ichigo asked as he turned to one side, his back to her, "It's not like anything is going to happen."
Angel raised a brow. "You promise?"
Ichigo paused before lifting his head up a little to look at her. "Promise what?" he asked.
"That you won't do anything suspicious," Angel nodded towards him.
Ichigo looked at her before smirking. "Why? Afraid I might jump you?"
Angel immediately looked away to hide her blush. "N-no."
"You're stuttering," he said. But when he didn't get an answer back from her, he decided it was time to have some more fun. He grabbed one of her arms and pushed her back onto the bed.
"Ah! Ichigo! What are you doing? Angel shouted when she suddenly fell back on the bed and Ichigo suddenly appeared on top of her. Instead of acting all shocked and shy, she was glaring at him with all the venom she could muster. "What the fuck?"
Ichigo chuckled. And when Angel tried to push him off, he grabbed both of her wrists and pinned it over her head with one hand. But being the midget he knew so well, Angel continued to struggle. Not thinking about how her petite-but definitely a woman-body felt against his, Ichigo's humor quickly died as he used his other hand to grab one of her legs and gripped it tightly.
Angel didn't know why but her struggle ceased in shock when she felt Ichigo's firm grip under one of her knees. She looked directly up at Ichigo, rivaling his intense amber with her deadly violets.
Ichigo growled low in his throat before leaning down and whispering next to her ear: "You should be more careful before something really happens to you. Didn't you learn anything from our very first night together?"
Angel's eyes blinked several times as her mind flashed the image of them in his apartment the night after the first day of school. "But both times this happened it's been you," she scoffed.
Ichigo tightened his grips as he growled even more fiercely. "But next time you might not get so lucky."
Before Angel could inquire what he meant by that, Ichigo suddenly pushed himself off of her and went to grab something from his drawers. "What are you doing?" she asked him as he went to the door with a towel.
"Cold shower," he grumbled before opening the door.
Angel blushed deep red, but it became even worse when Ichigo suddenly opened the door and Jacob and Megumi fell inside, each of them holding a cup in their hand.
Jacod jumped to his knees and started to shake his head and hands. "T-this isn't what it looks like son..."
Ichigo glared before grabbing the back of Jacod's collar and dragging him out of the room. Ange could hear him mumbling promises to kill his father with a blunt blade and bury him so far away that even his ghost couldn't come back to haunt him.
Megumi sat up and looked between Angel and the empty-but loud-hallway. "Ano, please excuse me," she bowed before running out, closing the door behind her.
Angel stared at the closed door before falling back onto the soft mattress. She buried her head into the pillow, trying to make sense of what Ichigo told her before he released his hold. And why was she feeling so warm? Not to mention she was breathing like as if she ran a marathon.
She grumbled in annoyance, not liking the feeling of not knowing what she was feeling. She buried herself deeper into the pillow. But when she took in a deep breath, a big whiff of Ichigo's scent filled her nostrils. She opened her eyes and lifted her head just enough to look at the pillow she just sniffed.
It was the pillow Ichigo was lying on before he jumped on her...
Angel groaned again before dropping her head back onto the pillow.
She was so confused that she didn't care anymore...at the moment.
Ichigo sighed as he watched his two sisters and Angel run across the beach in the warm sunny afternoon.
It's been four days since he came here with Angel for a relaxing vacation, only to have it ruined with the sudden appearance of his family.
Luckily, Lucy left out the bit about Angel being his student; but that meant they had to act like 'lovers' in front of the three people. Which also meant Ichigo had to listen to his father rambling on and on about grandchildren, sex positions, not being gay, and more grandchildren.
The sleeping arrangement was annoying. Both were stubborn as hell, willing to give up their life before giving up the bed. Of course, after several foul languages and bruises, Ichigo was forced to sleep on the floor, using a spare futon that he had in the closet. He was hoping to get the bed the next day but the midget was too smart. Each night he would try and sneak into the bed but somehow Angel was able to reach it before him. Things just kept getting worse when Jacod made perverted comments at bruises on Ichigo.
But it wasn't totally bad.
At least Angel was getting along well with his family. Megumi immediately took a liking to the midget, happy to have an 'older sister.' And Megan found it amusing that her brother got himself a woman who could beat his ass into shape. Ichigo wasn't too thrilled about her idea of his perfect partner, but Jacod just commented that Walker men need women with a bit of a kick, which should even carry into the bedroom. Ichigo had to punch his father at the comment, not wanting to hear anymore perverted jokes.
After all, he hears it everyday at school from Jonny and from Mark (and sometimes Lucy) on the weekends. He didn't want everyone to mistake him for a pervert, especially now since Angel was starting to get suspicious.
Everything was going well. The past few days at the beach was full of Megumi's delicious food, a game of soccer, Jacod-bashing, Angel and Ichigo arguing constantly, Megumi teaching Angel some new dishes, Megan sarcastic comments to annoy her brother, Jacod-bashing, tanning in the sun, shopping in town, having tea and chess matches with the Watanabe couple (the old man beating up everyone's ass while at it), and more Jacod-bashing.
Yes, everything was going well but that didn't mean there weren't nerve-wrecking moments.
On the first night, while Ichigo was tossing and turning on the ground, he and Angel created the perfect 'love story' to trick his family and everyone else who might question their relationship. Since she was eighteen, they decided it was safe to say she was a freshman in college. They met through a friend and immediately hit it off, thus moving into Ichigo's apartment not long after he moved into town. However, due to issues from Angel's family, they're trying to keep their relationship on the 'down-low' in case she gets taken away from him.
Oh yeah. That was the perfect story that got Angel and Jacod crying when they were told. Jacod hugged them and said he'll support them from the sidelines so not to worry. If Angel's family finds out and tries to take her away from them, he'll go in and turn the world upside-down to bring her back to the Walker family.
"Ichigo!"
The orange head looked up to see Angel running up to where he was sitting under a big umbrella. He was wearing a pair of board shorts and an unbuttoned, short-sleeved shirt on top, allowing his beautiful muscles to bless the world with its presence.
Angel stopped in front of him and grinned. She was wearing a thin piece of white shirt on top of her bikini along with a pair of short jeans. And on her head she was wearing a straw hat that Jacod bought her and Megumi just the day before.
"What do you want midget?" Ichigo groaned.
Angel pouted before grabbing one of his wrists and tried to pull him up. "Come on! These past few days you only sat around and never came into the water. Let's go have some fun!"
Ichigo sighed. "Let go or else I'll throw you," he threatened.
Angel's bottom lip came out as she dropped his hand. She placed her hands on her hips and snorted, "Fine then, be a bad sport. The girls and I are planning on going to the public beach so come over there if you need us."
Ichigo growled. The public area? Did she not know that place was swarming with idiotic men looking for a piece of ass? "Don't go there."
Angel raised a brow. "And why not?"
"Just because, okay?!" he snapped.
Angel whacked him over the head. "No, it's not okay! Geez, you act all weird whenever we leave this area. What's wrong with you?"
Ichigo rubbed his head and groaned in annoyance. Seriously, what was wrong with him? "I don't know...fine, just go," he growled.
Angel immediately smiled. "Thanks! See you in a bit!" she turned around and ran back to where the twins were playing. "Let's go!" she grinned as she grabbed their hands and the three ran towards the public beach, which was only several yards away. Heck, Ichigo could practically hear the loud, screaming noise that was coming from that area.
The orange head sighed as he looked out into the beach. With the girls suddenly gone, it was starting to get boring.
"Ichigo! Where are the girls?!"
Ichigo groaned for the nth time that day when his father appeared beside him. "They went to the public beach. Why?" he asked.
Jacod immediately started hyperventilating. "Ichigo! How could you?!" He grabbed his son with a head lock and squeezed him hard.
"AH!" Ichigo screamed, "What is wrong with you, you old goat?!"
"ICHIGO!" Jacod started crying, "HOW COULD YOU LET THEM GO?! THAT PLACE IS PRACTICALLY CRAWLING WITH ATTRACTIVE MEN THAT WILL IMMEDIATELY START HITTING ON THEM! AND WHAT WILL YOU DO IF SOMEONE TAKES SWEET ANGEL-CHAN AWAY FROM YOU!"
Ichigo could practically feel ten different veins popping out of his head. "GET OFF ME!" he screamed as he tossed his father over his head.
Jacod screamed in shock before landing with his head down first in the warm sand. He was still, waiting for the rush to die down before jumping up on his feet and turning to face his son with a triumphant smile. "Haha! You can't defeat me that-Ichigo?" He was shocked to see not only the empty spot under the umbrella but Ichigo quickly walking over to the other side of the beach where the girls went.
Jacod allowed a big smile to appear on his face as his son got further and further away.
"Looks like he's going to be alright after all, Aira," he whispered into the cool wind that blew over to the ocean behind him.
Ichigo kept muttering curses as he came to the public beach. He had to weave though some tall rocks, bushes, and trees to come out into the clearing. And when he did he did not like what he saw.
Too many people were crowding the area, making the task of finding Angel and his sisters even more difficult. People of all different size, shape, color, and overall looks have gathered around the beach; half of them in the sand and the other half in the water. Families came to spend a nice vacation together; couples came to try and later rip each other's swimsuit off in bed; and friends came to have a barbeque and play some volleyball.
Yup, too crowded for his taste.
