Chapter 4

Ichigo stared at the darkish green painted wall, all over Kish's room. Not only did she have to figure out what was going to do to decorate this hentai's place, but she also had him staring her down like she was some edible canine treat! He was calmly sitting in the chair with his hands cushioning the back of his head, looking like he was getting the utmost kick out of this.

"Gee great," She mumbled, trying to avoid his stare, but failing.

And to top it off she was still starving.

Ichigo groaned, not being used to skipping this many meals. She needed breakfast.

"You haven't started the remodeling yet, Kitten?" He asked, slightly in amusement.

She noticed she had held his eyes while dreaming away about her favorite breakfast food.

She jumped and looked away; she was just about to reply that little comment, when her belly made a humongous growl.

Ichigo's eyes grew wide, and she blushed looking back at him.

Kish chuckled.

"Oh, that's, right, "he said in between chuckles, Ichigo glared at him.

He held his hands up, surrendering, after chuckling a little more.

"Gomen, Kitten!" He gave her a toothy grin.

"I forgot to get you any food. Just one minute, ok?" Kish finished, he looked at her hopefully.

As her tummy made another grumble, Ichigo could only make a nod. Even though she hated to admit it, she was so hungry right then it didn't even matter as much that her tummy was making all sorts of weird noises.

To Ichgo's surprise, though, Kish did not teleport away like he did for the paint; he instead went to the door in the room, and opened it as if it were as easy as pie… And after all that strain and effort she had made last night….Life was just unfair!!

Speaking of unfair, she was still here with Kish; while she was sure everyone was worried about her.

Waving at her once again staring face, Kish closed the door after him. Ichigo could here a happy hum that she assumed was him behind the door, until it grew fainter and fainter.

Ichigo wondered if she should try the door again, but with the amount of paint cans and painting supplies near her feet, she doubted very highly that even her cat- genes were going to get her out of this one.

Ichigo briefly wondered if Kish had actually just robbed a paint store, instead of bought from it…

Coming back from the kitchen, Kish brought out one of his specialties he had learned while exploring around Earth.

Even though the humans were using the planet in destructive ways, he had to admit that the humans' sure did know how to make tasty food.

On his planet, you had a choice of stale loaf, and spicy ziiace soup. You were lucky if you got much more variety...

Still thinking of his planets food, Kish opened the door to his bedroom, and brought in the scrumptious smelling food to Ichigo.

Ichigo had never been so happy in her life.

--

Finishing up the scrumptious omelet, Ichigo patted her stomach in delight. She had only fallen two times getting over the painting supplies, so she was pretty happy with herself.

In between bites of food before, she had also made it clear to Kish that they really didn't need that much paint anyway. Since the bedroom was so small, and if he didn't want a rainbow, he would need to get some of the paint cans out of the room.

Fortunately, he had done that while she was still eating, and now that she was done, there was only three paint cans, plus the other necessary painting supplies left.

The new paint colors where all light colors, so Ichigo was confident that the room would look more bright and cheery when she got done.

Now yet again she would need Kish, this time to move the furniture.

'Wait if I make him help me every time, does that mean I have to stay here longer?' she questioned herself in horror.

Kish finished a candy bar while waiting for Ichigo to do something, anything.

He had heard "candy bars" were not good for a human, but since there was nothing relatively so sweet on his planet, he had gotten quite addicted to them lately. Ever since Tart introduced him to "candy", there was no way back.

Kish watched as his beautiful kitty suddenly got up from the bed and tried to push the bed to the side. She was straining however, and it did not move an inch.

She stopped after a few minutes and took a few gasping breaths.

"What's up, Hunny? Do you need some help?" Kish finally intervened.

Ichigo glanced over at him sharply, before trying to budge the bed again. It still didn't move…

Without another word, Kish went to her side and tried to help her. Ichigo looked to the side of her, at him, in alarm.

"No, I can do it myself!" she said, franticly.

Kish who didn't seem to hear her words, or ignored her, kept on trying to move the bed.

"Stop, I can do it!" she said again. She pushed him, pushing so hard that he fell. She misjudged the force needed to push him, and fell as well.

She landed straight on Kisshu. It was only after she stopped screaming that she found out her new predicament.

Her mouth was only inches away from his, and Kish looked very strange indeed from the new position they were both in.

Normally Kish would have took this as one more feisty little thing Ichigo did to him. She had pushed him before in battle, so that was not new.

She had even landed on top of him before, but it had never been this convenient.

He tried to restrain himself from kissing her. Not ever had she fallen so close, that he could feel the air that escaped her body.

Kissing her right now was something he could not hold back easily, but if Ichigo was ever going to really see him more then a pervert, then he was going to have to hold back now.

He still remembered that she still thought that he thought of her as a toy.

He had to admit it hurt him, when she assumed he still looked at her as a toy.

He turned his head away from her, hearing her gasp above him.

"Kish?" she questioned, it sounded like she was hurt. He doubted it was real thinking she was just faking him out again.

That still didn't keep him from looking back up at her.

He inhaled shakily. Everything in him wanted to wrap his arms around her and guide that mouth of hers closer.

"I-I," she started up again.

Kish stared at her moving lips; they looked so plump and soft.

"Sorry," she finally said, surprising him.

"I laughed before, I know you don't consider me as a toy now," she said, finishing up.

Ichigo blushed, even though everything had been settled about before, she still felt that maybe his views on her had changed for the better.

Kish looked up into her eyes. It was nice to look in them, almost as nice as having her on top of him.

Suddenly, he heard her heart rate increase. It was loud and seemed to be pounding hard in her chest.

It only lasted a second, but what came next was sweet bliss.

Ichigo gently pressed her lips against his, her heart jumping in her throat; it was as if her body had gone on auto-pilot.

She then withdrew, but Kish was not having any of that, his arms wrapped around her, bringing her closer, and in a split-second she felt him kiss her.

Ichigo's heart did a back-flip, and before she knew it, she was kissing him back hungrily,

Hey everyone, thank you again to all the people who have reviewed so far!

Anyway, please review, it really helps me find strength to update and write more.
