"..nmm..?" Rukia stirred for a while before her eyes completely opened wide, violet eyes stared into the brown ones those of Ichigo's. Propped on an elbow, he was looking down at her, in the middle of the night. "What?" a somewhat disheveled, irritated Rukia retorted. One: she was tired. Two: it was 4 a.m. for god's sake. 'Just let me sleep will you.' Three: by the way he's looking at her, she knew what he wanted (or at least what he's thinking of). It wasn't that hard to figure him out, really.
"What 'what'?" his reply came with a straight face. Ichigo lied back on his back. 'Asshole'. She shrugged him off, now turning to her side giving him her back, trying to catch some sleep. "Oy Rukia", he called her with a calculating voice; like he was testing whether she was asleep yet or not. Trying to ignore him, she forced her eyes shut, playing dumb to his repetitive calls.
Now with a scowl, Ichigo nudged her bare back with his elbow, "oy Rukia, would you stop pretending you're asleep already." 'Shit. I forgot to control my reiatsu.' "What? I thought you don't have anything to say?" Rukia snapped back, now annoyed; more at herself than him, but keeping her back at him regardless. "Aren't you cold? Put on your shirt at least." Ichigo's unexpected concern caused a small smile on her lips.
"No, it's okay. You're big and warm." He smirked at her cheeky answer. "Then come here." He pulled her closer, bringing their bodies together. "..Like a frickin' bear", came Rukia's next answer. A fit of laughter escaped her at his reaction; the mixture of frustration and disbelief on his face was priceless. "Well, I'm sorry that I'm a healthy 17 year-old male, you midget", a throbbing vein now starting to form on his forehead. Her laughter halted to a sudden silence. "I'm not a midget you idiot. I'm at least five feet tall, thank you very much." A smug smile appeared on her face.
"Oh says who? 144 cm is not 5 ft tall. It's barely 4'9". baaakaaaaaaaaa." Satisfied at wiping that smug smile off her face, he added oil to the fire, laughing his head off; "heh, you can't even do simple arithmetics." 'JERK', Rukia was now literally billowing smokes, infuriated with the shocking revelation and his lack of restrains to keep attacking at her size.
"Oh shut up you giant."
"What? Who're you calling giant? You dwarf."
"Monster. Ogre~ogre living in a smelly swamp~~Ogre with a carrot-top~~lalala…" came a somewhat sing-song Rukia.
"Chibi! Shorty!"
"You BABOON!!"
"You..you…you BUNNY!"
…
Silence.
'Oh shit bunny's not ugly', his realization came a nanosecond too late. Ichigo knew what will come next. 'Dammit'. As he's feared, Rukia's laughter filled his bedroom, "well, thank you Ichigo. I didn't realize that you think I'm cute like Chappy". Nonplussed, Ichigo blushed at this statement; because he did think she's cute. Well, not like Chappy, anyway. She's definitely way cuter.
"Ouch. What's that for?" Rukia rubbed where Ichigo bit her neck.
"I'm pretty sure bear eats bunnies, don't they?" a mischievous Ichigo asked Rukia innocently.
