Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Training Begins

Orihime looked at the delicious-looking plate filled with scrambled eggs placed on her lap. When Ichigo asked her about her having her breakfast she wanted to refuse but her damn stomach was faster in replying than her as a result of which she was in the present scenario.

"Try it slowly or you might burn your tongue," Ichigo said as he sat on a chair next to Orihime's bed. Hearing Ichigo's words Orihime nodded while being a bit embarrassed. Her present feeling was a mixture of happiness, embarrassment and guilt. She was happy because of the care with which Ichigo was treating her while embarrassed and a bit guilty about making him do these things for her.

Orihime slowly raised the spoon filled with warm pieces of scrambled eggs towards her mouth. The pleasant aroma of the seasonings mixed with the eggs entered her nostrils thereby increasing her appetite. Gulping down the saliva that was forming in her mouth she took a bit filled with expectations. 

"mhmm" an adorable voice escaped from Orhime's throat clearly telling that she was impressed by the taste. "It tastes so good Kurosaki kun." Orihime said as she soon took another bite of the food.

"Thanks, I might not make other foods delicious but no one else can compete with me in making scrambled eggs," Ichigo said while chuckling as he saw Orihime's change in expression the moment she tasted his dish. 

Orihime just nodded hearing him as she was too immersed in finishing the food on the plate, fearing that someone else would steal it from her. Ichigo was about to remind her to eat slowly when he heard her yell. 

"Eiiiiiiii" Orhime yelled as she brought her tongue out for air to cool it down. She looked both clumsy and cute in this expression. 

In her excitement, Orihime forgot that the food was still hot as she scooped a bite from the middle of the dish thereby scalding her tongue. She quickly brought her tongue out to let the cold air relieve some of her pain as tears collected at the corner of her eyes due to the pain.

Ichigo quickly reacted as he brought a glass of cold water to her mouth and made her drink it. Orihime clasped the glass as soon as she felt the cold water entering her mouth but only after a second did she realise that her hands were clasping not only the glass but also Ichigoi's hand.

A tinge of red appeared on her face as her mind focused more on the warmth emitting from Ichigo's hand rather than the cold water that was relieving her scalded tongue. Orihime soon drank her fill and after realizing that Ichigo brought the glass away from her and placed it on the table nearby. 

"Does it still hurt?" Ichigo asked to which Orihime nodded slowly as she said "It does but only a little bit now. Thanks for the water." Orihime said as she accidentally met her eyes with Ichigo's but averted it soon afterwards as her face started turning red.

"That's good then. Make sure to eat it slowly now." Ichigo said as he reached his hand towards Orihime's face and wiped the food stuck on the edge of her mouth with his thumb. Seeing this Orihime couldn't help but be even more embarrassed but what happened the next moment turned her whole face beetroot red.

Ichigo initially just wanted to remove the food that was stuck near her mouth but his body reacted on its own as he naturally brought the thumb towards his mouth and ate it in a well-practised manner. If one looked carefully one would realize that it seems as if he had done this movement many times in his life and it was not something that was done at the whim of the moment.

It was only after his receptors received the salty taste that he realized what he had done but it was too late to react as if he had done that accidentally and decided to just go with the flow "Tastes good, but still, you need to eat it slowly." He said while nodding to himself.

Orihime felt like burying her face as the image of what happened flashed in her mind again and again. She could only give a slight nod and eat the meal slowly while trying her best to not look at Ichigo in his eyes.

Time passed slowly like this and after a while, Orihime soon finished her meal. After washing the dish for her even after her protesting against it Ichigo bid her goodbye. The moment Ichigo exited Orihime's apartment's gates he heard a voice "You sure took your time boy." 

Seeking the source of the familiar voice Ichigo saw Youruichi in her cat form who was curled up at the side most probably waiting for him. Seeing that he had arrived she slowly got on her paws and stretched her body a bit to relax her sour muscles. "Come with me." She said as she started moving.

Ichigo didn't know what was going on but he guessed that it would probably be related to Orihime's matter and his future training. After walking for about an hour and a half during which Yourichi told him that she only told Orihime to be with him because she also had much higher spiritual power compared to a normal person. It was most likely because of the culmination of her being around Ichigo and the hollow haunting her. She wasn't very sure about the matter so she didn't give much of an explanation.

They finally reached a forested area where they could keep away the prying eyes and do some training. Yourouichi finally stopped and jumped on a stone which she found comfortable enough for her to rest. Ichigo had some doubts in his mind from his earlier attempts of feeling his spiritual pressure and wanted to clarify them so he was waiting for an opportunity to ask her these things.

Now that she was looking relaxed he finally gathered his courage to ask her his doubts, "Umm Youruichi, I was practising my spirit pressure just the way you told me yesterday and was quite successful at it but I noticed that I seem to release a lot of my spiritual pressure unconsciously...isn't that quite wasteful? How should I control it in a way that I could save it?

"Is that so? I was not expecting you to be able to feel your spiritual pressure just after a day. Usually, it is but for some strange reason, you still have enough energy to move around all this while even though you keep on emitting this large amount of spiritual pressure involuntarily..." Youruichi said and talked about how she was also researching a bit from her side about the strangeness related to him. 

"I see...So what have you brought me here for today?" Ichigo asked after realizing that she didn't know about the presence of hollow and Quincy powers that he possessed.

"What else could it be apart from training? You seem almost recovered...even though it's hard to believe but it's the truth so we shall begin now. Are you ready for it?" Yoruichi asked as a small grin slowly formed on her cat face as she reached the end of her statement.

"Hell yeah, I am!" Ichigo replied with confidence.
