Ichigo's POV:
"Ichigo are you sure you want to go to school today?I'm willing to let you have a day off."
"It's fine dad everyone still wants to see me."
"Well just try not to push yourself, ha"
"Hmm, you seem happy?"
"It's just, you've made a lot of friends Ichigo I'm glad you've come out of your tough exterior."
"I guess you're right."
"Ichigo hurry up or me and Yuzu we'll leave without you!"
"Coming Karin! Cya later dad."
"Bye kiddos."
As we walked to the school, my mind was entirely on dad's words. Have I really come out of my shell? Who should I thank for that? Probably Rukia in fact everyone in the soul society and Uryu and Chad and especially Ori-
"Ichigo are you ok?"
"Huh oh Yuzu yeah I'm fine."
"You're lying you almost walked past the school," Karin accused.
"Huh oh wow guess I was just deep in thought"
"Come on Yuzu let's go, we should let Ichigo think about prom."
Oh crap I forgot about prom on the weekend, how did she remember?
"Bye Ichigo." They called out as they went their way off.
"Bye do good and stay safe."
The hallway was more chattery than usual, everyone likes to make such a big deal about prom honestly I don't get the importance about it but if everyone else is going I might as well go probably by myself. Do I even have anyone I could ask, well there is one but can I even have the courage to ask?
"ICHIGO!"
"Keigo why are you so loud in the morning man!"
"Don't you know what's happening soon?"
"Yeah I know pro-"
"PROM! I can't wait till the weekend man I'm so exited."
"Do you even think you'll find a partner in time?"
"Ah Ichigo how could you say that? Of course I'll find someone to go with I've already asked 20 different girls."
"I'm assuming none of them wanted to go with you."
"Pfft clearly some people can't handle the charm and appreciation of a specimen like me."
"Sure, that's totally the reason," I sarcastically said.
"Speaking of which, do you have a prom Ichigo?"
"Well I haven't asked anyone yet but I guess I have someone in mind."
"Hey ichigo hey Keigo."
"Oh hey Mizuiro hey Chad."
"Sup."
"Do you guys have a prom date?"
"Well a couple girls asked me out already, not sure who I wanna go with though."
"Teach me your ways!" Keigo begged.
"Sorry I just have that pizazz not a lot of people have."
"Why is life so unfair?" Keigo cried out.
"There there Keigo, how about you chad did you get a date?"
"Uhm no, I tried a few times and they all seemed to be scared and ran away."
"Damn Chad you really have such a menacing aura, maybe you gotta act more friendly."
"Hey Ichigo did you get a date yet?" Chad asked.
"No haven't asked anyone, I do plan to soon enough whenever she arrives."
