(A/N): To express my happiness that Ichigo and Orihime made canon, I've decided to make dribbles concerning their love leading up to the ten-year time skip.

Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach, that right goes to Tite Kubo. I am just a grateful fan for the past 15 years.

Phone Calls

One year later….

At 4:21 pm, in a quiet train, a phone rings.

"And then the little blue men came and took my cherry flavored sriracha sauce doughnut out of my hand. It just disappeared!" Orihime shows Chad her hands through the video chat.

"Uh."

At 6:42 pm, while eating dinner, a phone rings.

Uryu shows up on video chat.

"Sado, did you get the boxer shorts that I sent you? I hope they fit right."

"Yes, it fits."

"At least someone here appreciates my sewing" Uryu shouts before the phone is snatched away and all you see is orange hair.

"He gave me a freaking HAT! He said and I quote 'to hide your ugly hair!" huffs Ichigo while adjusting the phone to see his face.

"Well I quite like it, I think it matches your face Kurosaki-kun," Orihime announces behind Ichigo, "oh OHIYO Sado-kun!

"Ohiyo Orihime."

"Sado-kun, are those my bread I see.

"Uh," Chad nods to the video camera, "I like the melon flavored ones."

"Yay!" Orihime exclaims as she takes over the phone, "but watch out for the little blue men or they will eat it all!

The phone is once again taken away by Ichigo, "Don't listen to her, there was no little blue men, she ate them all.

"Kurosaki-kun! It was too the little blue men!"

"Inoue, I saw you eat them all!"

"Nah uhhhhh!"

"Uh yeah!"

The video changes as Uryu takes back his phone, behind him, Ichigo and Orihime are arguing.

Uryu shakes his head and states "I am surrounded by idiots."

At 12:04 am, in warehouse, a phone rings.

"Yo."

"Ichigo."

"You doing alright over there?" a certain orange haired friend asks.

"Good."

"Good, we are rooting for you over here," states his friend, "the next time I see you; we both will be stronger."

"The next time I see you, I'll be fighting by your side." declares Chad.
