Angel smiled as she came down to gently claim his lips. The two moved softly with smoothing kisses that made them moan softly in affection. The two smiled as Angel began to place butterfly kisses on his face.
Just as Ichigo wanted to make the kiss deeper, Angel suddenly pulled away. He looked to see her suddenly distressed. "What's wrong?"
Angel stared at him before looking away. "I suddenly remembered something…"
"What?" he asked again as he took the opportunity to place small kisses along her neck.
Angel tried to shrug him off. "About Reyes-sensei."
Ichigo immediately stiffened and his lips stopped moving. For a few seconds the two were silent before he pulled his head back to glare at her. "What about Kyla?"
"…I was just wondering if you talked to her yet," Angel mumbled.
Ichigo stared at her before releasing a deep sigh. "No, at least not really," he told her as he brought her body closer to his, "This morning she came up to me to ask why I didn't call her."
"And what did you tell her?" Angel asked as her hand stroked his hair.
Ichigo frowned as he thought back to what happened after the morning staff meeting.
Flashback
"Walker-kun! Fernandez-kun!"
Ichigo froze in his spot when Kyla suddenly approached him. He stopped a groan from coming out. Andrew, who was walking with him, stopped as well.
"Ohayo, Reyes-san," Andrew greeted her.
"Ohayo," she greeted back as she stopped in front of them.
"Hey Kyla, how was your break?" Ichigo asked.
Kyla smiled sweetly. "It was fine. I visited some of my friends in Kyoto."
Ichigo frowned. "Kyoto? Didn't you say you were planning on going to Okinawa with Zander and Fernandez?"
"Excuse me?" Andrew raised an eyebrow.
"Ah!" Kyla quickly shook her head and waved her arms around, "N-no, I was, um…well, I was planning on calling them for the trip b-but—eh, my friends suddenly called me and I went to Kyoto instead!" she nervously chuckled, "So I guess it was a good thing you said 'no.'"
Ichigo stared at her for a few seconds before nodding. "I guess so."
Andrew eyed him suspiciously but Ichigo only shrugged his shoulders, a silent message of 'I'll tell you later' being sent out to him.
Kyla's laugh slowly ceased. "How was your vacation, Walker-kun?"
Ichigo had to stop a smile from coming on his face. "It was good. I met up with my family and we went to the beach."
"It must have been fun!" she smiled, "Next time you should invite us too!"
Ichigo cringed. "Yeah, maybe."
An uncomfortable silence surrounded the three friends.
Andrew looked between Ichigo and Kyla several times. He let out a sigh. "Is there something you need, Reyes-san? Walker and I were on our way to talk with the student council right now."
"Oh! I didn't know. I'll make this quick," she nodded at Andrew before looking back up at Ichigo, who was trying to ignore her gaze. "Ano, Walker-kun? Did you get my message last week?"
Ichigo's eyebrows furrowed. Not only did he get it, he was forced to stop his heavy make out sessions with Angel every time Kyla called. And it was almost every day! "Yeah, sorry for not calling back. I actually came back from my trip a bit late and I had a lot of stuff to do. I didn't check my messages until last night," he lied to her, feeling a bit bad for being so mean to his friend.
But he had to draw a line somewhere.
Kyla looked down. "Oh, I see. Um, well, can we—"
"Sorry Reyes-san, but can you discuss about this later?" Andrew suddenly interrupted, "We really need to get going."
Kyla looked between her two friends before smiling. "Of course. Sorry for holding you two up. I'll talk to you later, Walker-kun!" she said before turning around and heading to her office.
Ichigo finally released the breath he didn't know he was holding.
"If I didn't come in when I did you might have never gotten out of this situation," Andrew said.
Ichigo nodded. "Thanks man, I owe you one."
"Whatever," Andrew shrugged before asking, "What was that all about anyways?"
Ichigo ran a hand through his hair as the two walked the opposite way of Kyla. "She's been coming over to my place a lot the last week of break. And she left about ten messages on my answering machine, blabbering about how she needed to talk to me."
Andrew sighed. "Looks like she wants to confess again. What are you going to do about it? You can't push it off forever."
"I know," Ichigo groaned, "But I'd rather not deal with it at all. I thought she said she got over her crush on me."
"She did," Andrew frowned, "She just fell in love with you instead."
Ichigo froze in his step as he stared at his friend. "You serious?"
Andrew nodded. "She talked to me before break and told me how she was ready to become a serious person for you. I think she was trying to get you to go somewhere with her to try and confess…or tempt."
Ichigo groaned. "So that's why she asked me to go with her."
"Go where?" Andrew asked.
Ichigo frowned. "She called me the first week of break, asking if I wanted to join her for a trip to Okinawa. When I didn't say anything, she quickly added on that she was going to invite you and Zander. I guess when I said I couldn't go, she decided to cancel the trip altogether."
Andrew nodded as they continued their walk. "So that's what you meant a little while ago."
"Yeah, and she's really starting to bother me," Ichigo groaned.
Andrew smirked. "I still don't know what she sees in you."
"Geez, thanks," Ichigo glared.
"Whatever, Andrew shrugged his shoulders, "Just remember that she is your friend first. When you turn her down, be nice."
Ichigo nodded. "I know."
Andrew smirked. "And don't forget you still owe me. I've been eyeing the latest sewing machine that just came out. It's several hundred-thousand yens" (A/N: around thousand dollars).
"Fuck you," Ichigo glared at his so-called friend.
End of Flashback
Angel chuckled. "Looks like you're really having a hard time getting through her."
"Tell me about it. Kyla is a good friend and I don't want to jeopardize my relationship with her because of her feelings. Hopefully I can figure something out quick," he said as he looked into her eyes. "But let's stop talking about her now. I want to focus only on you," he told her, causing her to blush as he tried to kiss her again.
Ding Ding Ding!
And of course all good things must come to an end.
Ichigo groaned as Angel pulled away and jumped off his lap. "You leaving already? There are still few more minutes before class officially starts," he pouted.
Angel laughed before quickly pecking his lips. "I know but I need this passing period to tell the class about the festival. I'll see you at home."
"Oh, about that," Ichigo stopped her before she reached the door, "There's a late staff meeting today so I'm going to be late."
Angel nodded. "'kay. I'll just make dinner and leave it out for you."
Ichigo smirked. "You really getting into cooking now aren't you?"
Angel smiled back. "Only because I don't want to do the dishes," she said before quickly leaving the room. Ichigo only stared at the door as it slammed shut.
"Fucking bitch," he cursed, but still keeping his smile.
Angel ran to her classroom to see most of the students already there. "Okay guys! I have some announcements!" Everyone looked at her as she went to the front of the class. They stayed quiet as they waited for their class rep. to speak up. Angel looked around the classroom until her eyes fell on a specific person. "Lopez-kun, I would like it if you can help me."
"Why, of course Bushū-san!" Jonny practically flew towards Angel with his eyes shaped into hearts. "What does my dainty flower need me to help her with?"
The dumbass was literally on his knees like a dog waiting for his owner to throw a stick.
Angel smiled, though there was clearly a vein on her forehead. "I would like to announce to the class about the festival."
"Ah!" Jonny's eyes widened along with his smile as he jumped onto his feet and faced his fellow classmates. "MY DEAR THIRD-YEAR BROTHERS AND SISTERS! THE TIME HAS COME TO FOR US TO SHOW OFF TO THE WORLD AS HEALTHY AND HOT YOUTHS!"
"What the fuck are you blabbering about now?" Justin glared.
Jonny chuckled as he placed a hand on his forehead and the other on his waist, taking a dramatic pose as he shook his head. "My dear Tan-kun, just how dimwitted are you?" he chuckled, avoiding eye contact with the enraged red head who was being held back by his friends from bashing at the idiot's head. "Of course I'm talking about the school festival next month!"
"The festival?" Jane asked.
"Yup," Jonny grinned, "It's finally our time to shine! And I already got the student council's permission for our theme!"
"Already?"
"Yup! I just wanted to do this before anyone else asked," Jonny replied.
Justin shrugged his shoulders to push his friends' grips off of him. "Okay then, what are we doing?" he asked, keeping his anger at bay.
"Why, I'm glad you asked!" Jonny jumped on top of someone's desk and pulled out a rolled up poster. "Fellow classmates of Class 3-2! I unveil to you…" He undid the small string in the middle and let it unroll itself before the class, "—The Maid Café of Class 3-2!"
"YEAAAAAHHHHHHH!"
"WHAT THE FUCK?!"
The two different reactions came from the class from the two gender groups in the classroom. Guys were all excited while the girls were shocked beyond belief.
"W-wait a second," Justin stuttered, "The student council actually approved of this?"
Jonny nodded with a silly grin.
The tomboy looked at her petite friend with wide eyes. "Angel! Do something!"
Angel looked at her friend and sadly shook her head. "I tried but it was already decided. I was outnumbered at the meeting."
Bia looked at the poster Justin was holding up. On the poster were hand-drawn pictures of high school girls wearing very skimpy looking maid outfits. "We don't actually have to wear something like that, right?" she asked.
Jonny only replied with a wide grin.
"No fucking way!" Jane screamed before landing a hard punch on Jonny, "We won't wear that!"
"Sorry but apparently Fernandez-sensei and the handicraft club already made all the outfits," Angel sighed, "Lopez-kun was able to give them our measurements before break."
"How can you possibly know all of our measurements?" Bia asked with a suspicious look.
Jonny was immediately back on his feet and grinned smugly. "Why do you think I hug all you ladies so much? I can easily tell one's figure by simply touching them!" he announced with his nose held high.
Jane groaned in disgust. "That's not a gift you idiot; it's something only fucked up perverts can do."
"Yes, enough to get you arrested," Justin snarled.
Angel bit her lower lip to stop herself from laughing. Lopez-kun sounds just like Walker-san, she thought to herself as she remembered how Jacob was able to get her the perfect yukata for the summer festival last month, I wonder if they're related.
"Anyways, we need to get things ready for the festival. So please come and talk to me if you have any suggestion or questions," Angel announced and got a collected 'hai' just in time before the bell rung and their next teacher entered the room.
Angel stifled a yawn as she stretched on the couch. The sun was starting to set just beyond the window and she could feel exhaustion taking over. First day of school after summer and she was already tired, mostly because almost everyone wanted to talk to her about the festival.
Sometimes it didn't pay off to be the smartest in class.
She was suddenly pulled out of her daze when she heard the door opening. "Ichigo?" she called out.
"Yeah," he groaned as he came from the genkan and dragged his body to the couch.
Angel looked at his exhausted form and raised a brow. "What's up your ass?" she asked.
Ichigo looked at her and glared. "How many times have I told you to work on your people skills? I'm still your teacher so act respectful or something. I know you're good at that."
Immediately Angel put on her fake, sweet expression. "Walker-sensei how was your day today? Would you like to have some dinner or just straight up put your hands up my skirt again?"
Ichigo looked at her with annoyance and let out a snort. "You're really something, you know that midget?"
Angel smirked. "I know," she replied with her normal voice again.
With a long sigh Ichigo plopped down on the couch Angel was sitting on, resting his head on her lap as he stretched his long limbs.
Angel raised an eyebrow. "What are you doing?"
"Resting," he replied, "It was a long staff meeting and Andrew wouldn't stop bothering me." He leaned his head closer to her abdomen, inhaling her lovely scent.
Angel rolled her eyes as she rested her head back against the couch and looked up. Unconsciously one of her hands came up and started to play with Ichigo's hair. The owner of the orange hair let out a small chuckle before nestling closer to her. His hand slowly came up and softly stroked her lower back with his fingers.
Once again, everything was peaceful.
