Author's Note: God it's been way too long since I have written. I feel a bit out of the loop. But after reading a bit of fanfiction and remembering why I love to write, it feels good to say I'm back. I'm taking a break from Inu Yasha to focus on my other favorite anime, Bleach. So before you ask, all fics will be Ichigo/Rukia fics unless I do other pairings. -But Ichigo will always be with Rukia-

Disclaimer: God it feels good to do this! =D I do not own Bleach or Romeo and Juliet!!!

Summary- It was supposed to be a simple class festival. It was supposed to be a simple play. So why is our favorite orange-hair shinigami sweating bricks about a certain kiss scene?


It's Like Romeo and Juliet

Act One

He that is strucken blind cannot forget. The precious treasure of his eyesight lost.

(William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet, Act 1 Scene 1)


She was bored.

Scratch that…

She was bored as hell.

Rukia Kuchiki laid on top a grassy hill waiting for her friends to arrive. She had been in the human world for over two months now, but she was already getting tired of her daily routine. Get up, punch Ichigo, get to class, punch Ichigo, listen to class lectures, punch Ichigo, have lunch, side step Keigo's hugging attacks, go home, eat dinner, punch Ichigo, go to sleep while dreaming of punching Ichigo.

Laughing to herself she began to realize. Wow I really have an Ichigo punching fetish. -Not that she would ever admit it to anyone.- She sighed to herself, knowing she needed to do something to stop her constant boredom. Hearing Orihime's voice, Rukia turned and watched as the girls began to arrive.

Orihime smiled as she saw Rukia lying down in her usual spot. "Kuchiki-chan!" Rukia smiled at her friend. No matter how dense- and believe me she could be dense- she was, Orihime had a heart of gold and could be friends with anyone.

Rukia sat up and watched as her friends began to sit down next her one by one. Before it was weird being able to hang out with girls –all she had was her nii-sama, and he was nowhere as talkative as these girls- but Rukia began to enjoy it. She might even be daring to say that she actually loves it now.

"Kuchiki-chan did you get your assigned role for the festival that we are doing?" Chizuru asked as she began to grope Orihime. Rukia shook her head no at her friend to signal that she did not, –and also in shame as she watched Tatsuki beat the living day lights out of the poor lesbian- she was not really interested in the class play.

"I know what play we are doing!" Orihime chided in with a smile. "We are doing Romeo and Juliet!"

Rukia looked at her friend and smiled. Their class had just finished reading that play about a week ago and she found that to be one of her favorite plays. "Did you find out your role Inoue?" Orihime nodded vigorously at Rukia's question.

"Yeah I'm Lady Capulet! Ochi-sensei told me, Abarai-kun and Tatsuki our roles!" She looked completely happy with her role. Tatsuki smiled a ruffled Orihime's hair.

"That's right, our Orihime got one of the best roles. I- while pointing to herself- am Tybalt. Abarai got Mercutio. It's going to be an awesome fight scene between us!" She emphasized while pumping her fists in the air.

Rukia smiled at her crazy friends, maybe this festival could be a really fun thing. This might even be the thing to get her out of the funk she has been feeling.

Hmm I wonder what part I got…


It was a very bad day.

Ichigo Kurosaki rubbed his temples trying to get rid of his oncoming headache. Ochi-sensei asked him to stay behind and help post the class' roles for the upcoming fall festival.

"Like I would ever participate in this crap." He mumbled more to himself even though he knew that he had to. Ochi-sensei announced- to the few students that stayed a little extra after the signal for lunch- that they would be doing Romeo and Juliet as their school play and everyone had to participate- she quickly darted her eyes to Ichigo as she said this-. She then explained those that were not picked for leads will remain as background characters and help with the set. Ichigo was secretly wishing he would be the latter.

He wasn't very fond of the idea of doing a play, but as long as he didn't end up as Romeo who had to kiss some girl, then he would be fine. He posted the paper up and stared at it with complete shock.

Ichigo blinked a couple of times and then proceeded to rub his eyes. Was he being delusional? Or did that crazy teacher actually place him in the play? He wanted… No he needed to make sure his eyes were not playing tricks on him.

Friar Laurence…

Yes, today was a very bad day.

Ichigo continued down the list to see the stars of the play

Romeo Montague- Hirako Shinji

Ichigo snorted. Whoever Shinji was going to kiss he felt sorry for her. Ichigo looked further down the list to see what poor soul was getting stuck kissing Shinji.

Ichigo wanted to kill someone the moment he spotted the name.

Today was a very bad day.

Today was a very horrible FUCKING day.

Juliet Capulet…
