Ichiruki 22 please
22. “I’ve seen the way you look at me when you think I don’t notice.”
Ichigo watches her when he thinks she doesn’t notice.
Of course she notices, he’s not exactly subtle about it, and Rukia has always been the observant type.
At first, she chalks it up to a school boy infatuation – a fascination born out of the results of an impossible choice on a mad night – but it doesn’t stop. He watches her move, watches her fight, watches her leave – watches her whenever he thinks she isn’t watching him.
Unfortunately for Ichigo Kurosaki, Rukia is a lot better at surreptitious surveillance then he is.
So, she watches him, watching her.
It’s Ishida who catches on first, and he leans in close to Rukia one afternoon while the whole group is eating lunch together. “I see you,” he says, and Rukia starts and feels the stain of a flush heating her cheeks. “He doesn’t, but I do.”
Send me a number and a pairing and I’ll write you a drabble.
