Eyes On You

Rukia's POV


I counted to ten and schooled myself into pasting the fake saccharine smile on my face. Patience...

I promised myself I'd get the chance to kill Ishida later.

When I agreed to become his model for the outfit the girls of our class are going to wear for the school festival, I didn't think he had this in mind.

This just happened to be a collection of frills, lace and semi-transparent cloths that were sewn together to a semblance of a maid costume. A dress that was cut low enough to show off whatever cleavage I have, short enough that if I move too much, I'd probably flash everyone. And believe me, with the underwear I have on right now, I really dont want anybody other than Ichigo seeing it. Let's just say there's hardly any cloth to it -- and that Matsumoto-fukutaicho helped me pick it out.

When I first walked into the classroom wearing this sinful excuse of a maid costume, the guys all cheered and hooted and whistled. The girls looked at me with emotions varying from jealous indignation to helpless empathy.

Inoue would have been standing here instead of me, but she's already in the school play and wont be participating in the class cafe.

I would have balked, but I already gave a promise to Ishida, and the Kuchiki etiquette that the clan elders pounded into me for the past 50 years isn't something I can ignore at will. Of course, when they taught me all those a-noble-must-honor-promises teachings, they didn't know there were such a thing as sex costumes.

Needless to say, I'm standing in a roomful of hormonal teenagers like a vision from a hentai manga.

So where are hollows when you need them?

The male population of our class are now just openly staring at me. Some have beady and glassy eyes; others have drools on their faces; some of them are hyperventilating; and I think Keigo's having seizures, judging by his weird hand gestures.

I can hear Ishida droning on and on about the dress.

I groaned.

Oh god save me from closet perverts!

At least with guys like Kon and Keigo, you know what to expect: a meaty paw there, a glomp here, the occasional peak-up-your-skirt and sick innouendoes. You can guess what they'll do... and can therefore avoid it.

Closet perverts are another matter entirely.

Classic example, Kurosaki Ichigo.

In the 3 years I've known him, he seemed so shy and innocent around women; he gets totally violent whenever his Dad, Keigo and Kon's insinuations got too perverted and I never ever saw any indecent magazines in his room. Heaven help anybody who says the word sex and Ichigo in the same sentence.

It's what I honestly thought.

That belief did an abrupt 360 six months ago, when he turned 18... and started sleeping with every available female in town.

I groaned, as is my habit whenever I remember it.

Yes, he went through a one-night stand phase. Deal with it Kuchiki!

Oh, Ichigo's an outright pervert. He even got a thing for dirty talk.

I don't even understand half of the things he whispers in my ear when no one's looking. And mind you, I'm not some naive Victorian miss, I came from dirty slums streaming with horny people; and then I came to the shinigami barracks, where although men seem more respectable, doesn't mean they're any less hornier.

I'm a virgin, not a shrub. I know what sex is.

He doesn't even seem to care where we are or what we are doing when he says things like that, making it seem like he's got nothing else but sex in the brain. He's freakin' horny, anytime, anyday, anywhere.

Not that I don't appreciate it. I like it, so-freaking-much. In fact, I like it so much that a week ago, we ended up in the school equipment shed, lips locked in an all-out war, my back propped up to the wall, one of his hands had gone underneath my blouse while the other was squeezing and caressing my butt, Ichigo grinding his rather prominent uhm, bulge in between my legs.

That I was the one who lured him to the shed is something I won't admit.

Another example, Ishida Uryuu.

The guy wears white like some freaking virgin, he doesn't even peek at Keigo's ecchi magazines, and he made alarmed protestations when Inoue tried to undress in front of him. But now, hell, he's got me wearing this --

A direct result of some master/maid fetish. Heck, I won't be surprised if he suddenly whips out a pair of furry handcuffs and asks Inoue to 'model' it next.

My hands are itching to punch somebody, but my usual target (a.k.a Ichigo) isn't here yet.

I need somebody to tell these guys to stop leering at me.

And can somebody, please wipe the blood dripping off of Keigo's nose!?

"I chose the color black when I created this costume because it suits almost all of the girls in our class. As you can see, it practically highlights Kuchiki-san's pale skin, making it seem as if it's glowing..."

Hearing Ishida's commentary, I suddenly realized he'd make a good substitute punching bag.

"And this," Ishida went behind Rukia to tie on her hair. "This will perfectly frame their faces and also provide contrast to their hair."

Did Ishida just put a ridiculous girly headband on me?

My hand flew up to touch the top of my head... it collided with a silky concoction of strings and lace. I want to shriek in dismay.

Punch him now?

Oh hell, where is Ichigo when I need him?

Probably he's late leaving the house, needing to take care of business in the bathroom. I'm not sure, because I left immediately (more like, narrowly escaped) after giving him a burning kiss and swiping hard at his delicious pants-clad steeple.

"Ohayou--"

My hero just arrived.

"AAAhh!"

And had gotten a good look at what I'm sportin'.

Thanks Ichigo, I get that I look hot, you can close your mouth now.

"Wh-what are y-you wearing?"

Apparently, it's every man's dream, you moron.

Obviously, he wasn't listening when I told him a week ago that I'm suppossed to model Ishida's little number today. I don't really blame him, though, he was probably more concerned with nibbling my throat and caressing my breasts at that time.

Not to mention I also had my hands underneath his shirt, getting my fill of his perfectly formed abdominal muscles. God, he was just so cut and so hard all over, so deliciously warm, and his devilish hands were -- uhm, my mind is rambling.

Where was I?

Oh yeah, in a classroom wearing a sex costume.

Now Ichigo's just staring all googly-eyed at me. How long has it been? Really, now is not the time for him to have brain anuerism!

I glared at him. I'm hoping he understands that it's a silent signal for SOS.

The idiot just glared back.

Well, so much for hoping. This is what I get from counting on my moron of a boyfriend.

"I-chi-go!!!" Keigo yelled, running up to Carrot-top complete with a blood-dripping nose and a drooling mouth. "You are so lucky to be dating a sexy goddess!!! Tell me that you have already partaken of her body's sweet delights!"

Keigo's efforts were rewarded with a straight punch to the nose, he plopped to the floor a couple paces back.

Great! Ichigo really has no sense of priorities. Clearly, as any good boyfriend, what he should do is to tell Ishida to let me remove this god-forsaken outfit or at least do something about his leering classmates. But no! He just had to take care of Keigo first.

After doing his fair share of ogling, of course.

Argh! Men!

"Ichigo!" Keigo started whining and sobbing dramatically. "Don't tell me you still have yet to sample her charms!?"

It was so close to the truth, I stiffled a horrified laughter. Ichigo's turning into different shades of red.

Wow, a skin color to match his name.

"Shut your mouth, you sick pervert!" Ichigo growled, knocking his fist downward to hit the top of Keigo's head. He didn't stop there either, he kept on bashing Keigo.

Ichigo, my uncouth moron, stop hitting his head. I don't want to be partly responsible for the untimely demise of Keigo's few remaining brain cells -- however microscopic and useless they are.

Mizuiro took exception to our reactions and decided to torment Ichigo further. "Ichigo, you protest too much. People might think Keigo's right, you know."

Opps.

Some our classmates started snickering, then the girls giggled and the boys were laughing.

"Ichigo, you idiot!"

That was a female voice, Tatsuki, I think.

I almost feel bad for Ichigo--

"Who would want to do that with her anyway!?" Ichigo was pointing at me.

Well, Almost. And have I mentioned I wholeheartedly agree with Tatsuki?

Ichigo says the stupidest things.

"I-chi-go!" Keigo whined, "How can you say such horrid things about our beautiful Rukia-chan?" Huge tears are coming out of his eyes. "I can't believe my friend is a blind idiot..."

Wow. Keigo actually had a point there.

A sure sign of future cataclysmic events.

"Ichigo, if you can say things like that in front of your girlfriend, I have to agree that you are stupid," Mizuiro said with his boyish smile.

Everybody started laughing, except Inoue, of course.

I inwardly chuckled.

We've got enough people thinking that Ichigo's a moron to form a small parade. I could be up front throwing the baton wearing a majorette custome and I'm sure Renji would just love to hold the banner.

"Kurosaki," Ishida chidded, "Is it a talent of yours to always say the wrong things?"

Ichigo growled. "Shut it, four-eyes!"

Oh no, Ishida, you don't get to join the Ichigo's an Idiot parade. Not while I'm still wearing a by-product of your fetishes.

"Rukia-chan," Keigo cried. "Please don't feel bad about what Ichigo said. Don't take it seriously."

I blinked up at him.

Actually, I didn't take it seriously. I've had enough proof of just how badly he wants me. I have, after all, been making things hard for him this past week. Uhm, no pun intended.

But that doesn't mean I'm taking it lightly either. What he said was nothing short of a public insult. I'd have kicked him, but Ichigo taught me the value of keeping up school "images".

Ichigo will soon learn that he shouldn't mess with his girlfriend when she's practically wearing lingerie.

Lights... Camera... Action!

I stared at Ichigo with teary doe-eyes. I paused for effect to make sure my audience gets to see it. Then the waterworks: big tears falling in synchronization. I whipped out a white hanky and made a big show of wiping my tears.

"I'm sorry Kurosaki-kun," I began in a pained voice. "I know that I don't deserve to date somebody like you..."

Everybody's quiet. The class is soaking this up.

Damn, I'm good.

"... I'm not smart enough..." I kept the tears going. I pretended to hung my head down in shame.

"... I'm not tall enough..." At this, I pretended to be so consumed with hurt that I'm bunching the side of my skirt with my right hand, hiking it's already indecent length even higher, giving them a perfect view of my long legs. I think Keigo's nose is starting to bleed again, along with some of the males in the room.

I then used my left hand to trace my right arm, slowly inching upwards. I clutched onto the my upper arm, pushing my less-than-ample cleavage up. "... I'm too frail and skinny..."

Raising my head up, I made sure my captivated fans can see my big purple eyes still glistening with tears. "I'm plain-faced. There's nothing special about me."

I could hear gasps of sympathy from the girls. The boys are staring at me with eyes mixed with lust and pity. Tatsuki is trying hard not to laugh, Ishida made a choking cough in the background, I think they're both catching up on what I'm doing.

Oh Ichigo knows what I'm doing, and looks like he's both angry and aroused. I prefer the aroused part, it makes a mockery out of his foolishly uttered words.

"Kurosaki-kun is so mean!" I can hear somebody saying now, this one's female.

"No, Kuchiki-san, there's absolutely nothing wrong with you. You're perfect!" A male classmate.

"Yeah, he's the one who doesn't deserve a girl like Kuchiki-san!" Another male.

"What the hell, Rukia!" That was Ichigo. "Quit doing that!"

In the next five minutes, people agreed that I'm a sweet and wonderful girl unlucky enough to have such an unappreciative bastard as a boyfriend. They all hurried to give me assurances, to which I only responded with a look of faked disbelief.

Oh god, I wanted to laugh so bad at this point. Ichigo's glare is so fierce that it can make grown men quake in their shoes.

But I'm not done yet. I just need a few minutes more. Math is next (and last) subject...

"Good morning, class."

Ah, perfect timing.

The male Math teacher had just entered.

"What's going on?" The substitute teacher asked, his eyes widened when he saw me infront wearing Ishida's creation.

I tilted my head to the side and gave my teacher an innocent smile. I fingered the hem of my skirt.

"Ishida-kun asked me to try on the dress we're going to wear for the school fest," I answered in a deceptively sweet voice.

Our Math teacher immediately pinched his nose, probably to halt an oncoming nosebleed. "Y-you should change back to your uniform," He said that reluctantly, as if he didn't really want me to change clothes.

He wasn't the only one affected though. The other guys are back to leering at me.

See that Ichigo? I have sex appeal for all ages!

But with my anger for Ichigo's unwitting reaction slowly receeding, all this male appreciation is starting to make me feel uncomfortable again. For the first time, I'm unhappy with my sharp observation skills.

Why?

I just realized that the males inside the room are pitching uhm, tents in their pants.

And yes, Math teacher included. The lecherous pervert!

I suddenly regret teasing Ichigo to an extent that I aroused the males in the room.

It gave me a delicious thrill though, to notice that my boyfriend pitched the biggest tent.

Bad, baaad girl!

Oh for god's sake! When will I ever be able to get rid of this ridiculous outfit? I look like a total slut, and it doesn't help that I'm starting to think like one! This is absurd, we have enough lampposts here to light the entire Karakura town up!

"Let's go, Rukia." Ichigo took a steely grip on my wrist and dragged me away from all the men's gazes.

Oh finally!

"Took you long enough," was all the thanks he'll get from me.

Wait, we're out of the classroom, but he's still walking, dragging me with him.

"Ichigo!" I yanked my arm back. He let go only to grab my upper arm in a stronger grip.

I winced. Damn, that's going to bruise.

We went past the girl's washroom, past the girl's locker room, and he still continued to drag me with him.

"Damn it, Ichigo!" I tried to twist my arm away. "Stop!"

Ichigo just glared menacingly at me and hissed in a dangerously low voice. "Shut up."

I gulped. I rarely see Ichigo this angry. Like royally pissed angry.

We reached the end of the hall. He opened the door to the music room, we both know it's empty during this time of the day.

He roughly shoved me in.

It's a bit cold in here; and dark. The curtains are thick and black, only allowing sunlight in through the gaping sides.

I shivered, but not because I'm cold. Ichigo had just locked the door, creating a creepy resounding click.

My eyes widened. Should I apologize?

Hell, no!

"I-Ichigo?" And yet my voice sounded uncertain, damn!

He gave me a fierce golden glare.

I'm starting to feel all shaky and stuff. Stupid unsteady knees, stupid pounding heart. Now's not the time to be weak.

There's that look in his eyes again, as if he wanted to kiss me and punish me at the same time. It excites me, yet it scares me.

I sighed. I admit I've been teasing him mercilessly these past three days, but Ichigo's so dense sometimes. I wanted to communicate that I've made my mind up. Why do I always have to spell it out for him?

I'm ready now...

... but not right now.

Tonight, now that's a different matter.

"You," he bit out in a voice that sent tingles down my spine. "Have tormented me this week."

I know.

"You have given those perverts a good view of what's mine."

His?

Oh, he means me, or my body, rather.

Sheesh! Territorial much?

"Why, Rukia?"

How to answer that?

Damn. We're used to insults, shouts, kicks and punches-- and other touchy non-verbal stuff. This communicating thing is something new. Progressive?

Maybe. Hopefully.

"Ichigo," I hesitated. "A few days ago, when I stopped you from, uhm, doing things, it was because I got scared. I liked it, I liked it hell of a lot, but things were moving so quickly. I'm not naive, but I'm not entirely knowledgeable either. When you talk sometimes, there are some things I don't understand..."

"I was afraid I couldn't please you. You've been with a lot of other women, most of them are skilled and good in bed. I don't want you to compare me to them and find me lacking. I know it's just sex, not rocket science, but damn it-!"

I want to pull at my hair. How can talking be so freaking hard?

"- I want to be damned good for you. I want to be best fuck you ever had."

His eyes widened in comprehension, regret replaced anger, giving his amber orbs a warm glow.

I took a deep breath, grateful that he understood.

"But then, your reaction after I said I can't do it..." I sighed and looked away from him, staring at the heavy curtains. "I hated it. It felt like I let you down, and I hate letting you down."

I looked straight into his eyes.

"These past three days, I was trying to show you... that I'm willing to try again."

I stared at him, he just stared back. I was waiting for a feedback, a confirmation.

He just stood there, looking at me with an inscrutable expression.

Seconds ticked by. The silence is driving me nuts.

"Ichigo?"

Still no reply.

Heck, maybe I should hit him, maybe that'll get the point across. Apparently, speech doesn't work on neanderthals.

"Ichigo!"

I lunged at him with a fist, he immediately caught my wrist. He caught my othet arm and gently pressed me to the wall.

His eyes are shining with an unholy golden hue again. Did I mention my kness are turning to jelly?

No? Well, they are. I'm practically turning to mush, because he just landed a hot open-mouthed kiss on my lips. His teeth tugged at my full bottom lip, his tongue and lips trying to work my mouth open, roughly begging for entrance.

Oh god, much obliged.

I closed my eyes as I opened my mouth to his onslaught. His tongue slipped past her lips. He roughly kissed me. I responded in equal mesure, to which he gave a growl of approval. His hand had traveled from my wrist, caressing up my arms, towards my nape to hold my head steady. The other hand is at the small of my back, pressing me tighter to him. I moaned.

He swallowed the sound up. His hot tongue is making a grand tour inside of of my mouth, entwining with my tongue, searching, tasting each depth and crevice in my mouth. I didn't think his kiss could get more demanding than it already is, but it did. The more he delved inside of my mouth, the hungrier he gets. Nipping and kissing until I tasted my own blood on his lips.

This is different from all the kisses we shared before, and we have shared many. Tiny, teasing kisses, rough ones, passionate ones. But this kiss is unlike the others in the past, this is a no-nonsense-kiss that shook me to my core and elicited from me an equal response. Soon I found it difficult to breathe, much less think.

But there's a voice inside that is instinctively warning me.

I got the chance to voice sudden fears when he finally let go of my lips to place tiny nibbling kisses down to my neck. But I took the precious time to luxuriate in the the feeling of Ichigo kissing and biting my pulse point instead. There were equal amounts of pain and pleasure when he got too rough, I got a bit teary-eyed and I can't help but give a weak protesting yelp. He lightly licked my neck in apology, soothing the sting.

The hand that was on my nape is already busy caressing my breasts through the fabric of the dress.

The other hand had traveled up my back to undo the buttons. His mouth kept me from noticing such evil intents though, whispering soothing things in my ear, nibbling and licking the outer lobes of my ear and kissing and sucking the sensitive points around it.

Breathless moans escaped me, sinking in all the wonderful sensations, when the dress suddenly slipped past my shoulders.

I gasped in protest. "Ichig-"

He kissed me full in the mouth again, making me momentarily forget my hesitation. He palmed my breasts through the thin material of my bra, using his index finger to gently scratch my nipple.

I gave a harsh groan. He took it as a sign to continue.

His mouth traveled down my neck again, he bit my shoulder and sucked, purposefully leaving a mark. He went even lower, kissing and sucking all the way to my other breast. He sucked and licked the tip while he played with the other with his index finger. I pressed my hand to the wall to support my shaky knees, while my other hand held onto his hair to keep him there.

I don't know when the bastard got his hand under my skirt, but he's rubbing his thumb in circles against my inner thighs. It lulled my leg muscles into softening up for him. He was able to pry my thighs apart. He wasted no time in caressing me through my panties.

"Ohh.." I heard myself moan in surprised pleasure.

But this was all too wrong, we are in a school with students and teachers that could come in anytime. I pulled my consciousness back from the passionate daze Ichigo put me in.

How to tell him?

'No' isn't quite the word I'm looking for... 'wait', now that sounds more like the thing.

"Ichigo, w-wait!" I whispered shakily to him, trying to get him to look at me.

Instead, he just gave me another deep and searing kiss, as if telling me - without words - to quit being silly. I was inclined to agree with him when his hand sped up his ministrations through my panties.

Oh well... it probably isn't the first time this almost abandoned music room got used for perverted purposes anyway.

I yelped in pleasured surprise when Ichigo's fingers flicked my panties to the side and proceeded to attack my wet folds with his middle finger.

"Ahh!"

"Damn, you're tight!" He groaned.

Should I take that as a compliment?

I was too taken by pleasure to care. I was moaning and gasping uncontrollably now.

"Ssshh..." He got back up to whisper in my ear. "I don't want someone to interrupt us."

Great, I was afraid of getting caught, he just didn't want to get interrupted.

I moaned shakily in response. A warm fuzzy haze is engulfing me, leaving me pliant to his touch.

"You said there are some things you don't understand right?" He demanded seductively.

How come he's so freaking coherent? I'm already a puddle of goo!

He kept his assault on my dripping folds, adding a second finger.

I might have nodded, or moaned, or cursed. Who cares? So long as I got the answer across.

"Then let me teach you," he whispered in my ear, nibbling on it again.

The hand on my crotch shifted, I made a mewl of distress when he removed his fingers.

Without warning, he used his thumb to caress my nub. I shivered against his encroaching hand.

"This is your clit." He circled and added more pressure on it.

"Oh god!" I almost gasped. I was shuddering uncontrollably now. "Please..."

I don't even know what the heck I'm pleading for. Both of my hands clutched Ichigo closer. One dug into his back, the other buried itself in his soft orange hair.

"Baby, you're so responsive." He muttered at me. "I'm close to losing control."

Control? At this point, I don't even know what control is.

He fondled my nub, teased it, sometimes stroking it in slow soothing circles while there are times when he rolled his index finger through it roughly, eliciting yelps of almost pain from me.

He was playing with me, toying with me. I would have thought that he's not affected as I am, but I can feel his heart pounding against my almost naked-chest, and I can hear him breathing heavily.

Without stopping his torment of my clit, he plunged a his middle finger inside me again.

"Holy! Ichi-oh!" I was past any sort of coherent thought. It felt like I was drowning, being tossed around by silky waves. I'm shivering so bad, Ichigo let go of my breast to hold my waist, keeping me propped to the wall.

"Now, I'm finger fucking you," he gowled low in my ear. "Do you like this?"

I didn't even hear him speak, but I felt his hot breathe on my ear. He was pushing his finger in and out of me gently, but his thumb is working on the nub with almost rough strokes.

"Ichi-go...oh god... Ich.. Ichi."

Don't really know what came over me, but I started moving in rhythm to his stroking hand. I wanted to speed things up, longing to get higher, yet wanting relief at the same time.

He looked at me hotly, his golden eyes burning into mine.

"Mm... oh... m-more. P-please." I pleaded.

Something is coiling within me, burning the lower part of my body in a fiery heat. Ichigo seems to know what's happening.

"I n-need... s-something..."

He added another finger within me, and rubbed harder onto my clit with his thumb.

"Ahh...hmmph..." he swallowed my scream with in his mouth.

There was a sudden mind-numbing pleasure. Flashes of white light. My body convulsing and contracting strongly around his fingers.

The white light disappeared. I suddenly felt boneless. I was still contracting around his fingers but it was slowly diminishing in intensity.

"That was... that was-" Unfortunately, I don't know what just happened.

"You just came, Rukia." He said through gritted teeth. "Damn, you felt good."

"I-" I just noticed his fingers are still inside me."I-Ichigo!"

He just smirked devilishly. "Just once more, for me."

My eyes widened, he was moving his fingers inside me again. The contractions aren't even finished yet, but he's already driving me towards another precipice. He moved his fingers deeper and faster. I felt like I was dying from the pleasure.

"I'm almost..." I hissed at him.

He leaned his head towards my bra-clad chest, lightly biting my nipple, at the same, he caressed my nub harder.

I was hurled over the edge again, this one stronger than the last. I bit my hand to keep from screaming. My other hand is on his back, digging my fingers into his uniform.

In a stupor, I vaguely felt Ichigo removing his fingers from my slick lower lips. I willed myself into breathing normally again. In a couple of minutes, I was able to stop my heart from racing.

I looked up at Ichigo, his eyes are still golden with unfulfilled lust. And his pants looked uncomfortable tight, well, you get my drift.

"How about you?" I asked hesitantly. "I did. But you didn't get to... so-"

He just tilted his head at me and raised his brows questioningly.

Well I'm really not sexually eloquent, so I'm probably not making much sense. I think gestures would convey my thoughts better.

I lightly tapped my index finger against his sword. He jumped away from me as if I just scorched him.

Frowning, it was my turn to look questioningly at him.

"That was-" Ichigo seemed at a loss for words. "An apology of sorts. Hell, it's not enough but for now, it's the only way I can express it."

I sighed. We're a couple of communication-impaired individuals. Our crappy lives left us socially-stunted.

Thinking of it that way, it sounds as if we're both damaged goods. Damn, I guess we do belong together.

"C'mon, Rukia." Ichigo smirked. "Let's go home. I'm not finished with you yet."

Arrogant prick.

But I groaned when I looked down at myself. I'm still wearing Ishida's thrice-damned sex costume.

Come to think of it, Ichigo seemed to like it, judging by how he kept on ogling me.

I smiled at Ichigo innocently.

"Maybe you'd like to ask Ishida to let me to keep this costume for... future use?"

A/N:

First off, sorry, I wanted to upload sooner, but school and work got in the way. It doesn't help that my laptop's keyboard went bonkers. I also beta my own work, so there are slip-ups, gomen. English isn't my first language.

Ichigo's escapades had given Rukia insecurities. Well...

I'm aiming for something light but did it turn out slow and draggy instead? God, I hope not. But please, tell me what you think.

To Ishida lovers out there: "Please don't spear me!" I don't hate him, I really don't. Gomenasuru.

And thanks to those who PMed, subscribed, faved, story/author-alerted and most specially those who reviewed. You're such wonderful, beautiful people.

Please wait for the next chapter. ^_^

Kisses!
