100 Ways To Be Romantic 81-90
(And why they will or won't work for Ichigo and Rukia)
(A/N: For the purpose of this story I have written the status of their relationship because it does alot of jumping around, but most of these can be used through all stages of their romance)

81. Talk about mutual fantasies (not nececarily sexual)
(Relationship status: Married)
Ichigo and Rukia were going to stay up late tonight; every Saturday night the two decided to spend an hour talking about likes and dislikes, and tonight was no diffrent, "So, if you weren't a Soul Reaper wat would you be?" Rukia asked, Ichigo thought on that for a moment, "Probbably a doctor," "Really?" "Yeah," "....... Doctors are sexy...." she muttered, he smirked, "Oh really?" she just nodded slightly, "Wat other things do you find sexy?" "... Vampires .... and artists .... wat about you?" he chuckled, "You, as a damsel in distress,"  she rolled her eyes, "Are you EVER going to let go of that one?" "No," she sighed, "But I also think you'd be sexy as my patient, now, weather I'm a doctor or a therapist is up to you," she rolled her eyes, "Oh please!" she got up, albeit a bit wobbly due to being six months pregnant, "Were are you gonig?" "I'm having a cookie craving, but wen I come back maybe we can play a game," she smirked, he grinned
(Does it work? Oh yeah, it works)

82. Make them breakfast in bed for no reason
(Relationship status: Married)
Rukia yawned and stretched, she rolled over but found that her newlywed husband wasn't in bed next to her, "Finally awake?" she looked behind her and saw him standing there with a tray of her favirote food and a rose, she smiled and sat up, "Wow, I think my honeymoon is better than anyone else's!" she said, he laughed, "But we just got here yesterday," she giggled, "And doesn't the fact that I'm already saying that mean somthing?" he smiled, "Yeah, I guess so,"
(Does it work? Definatly)

83. Stay up all night to think of 100 ways to be sweet to them
(Relationship status: Married)
Rukia yawned and turned over, uncounciously looking for the warm body of her husband to snuggle up to, but unfourtiantly she didn't find it, she opened her eyes and cringed at the dull light, "Ichigo? Mm, wat're you doing?" she yawned, "Shhh, go back to sleep Baby," she put her weight on her elbow, "I want to cuddle, wat are you doing?!" "Just making a list," she grabbed the pen out of his hand and threw it across the room, then turned off the lamp, "You. Sleep. Now." she demanded, he sighed, "But I want to finish this," she glared at him through the darkness, he put the notepad down and laid next to her, "Good..." she muttered, cuddling up to him to go to sleep
(Does it work? Well if Rukia will let him...)

84. Hang out with his/her freinds
(Relationship status: Dating)
Ichigo sighed loudly, "Don't sigh like that Ichigo, I hang out with your freinds all the time now it's your turn!" she stated, dragging him forward, "Yeah but Rukia, do I HAVE to hang out with the Soul Reaper's Women's Association?" "Yes!" as it turned out ... Rukia regretted the decision .... Nanao and the others insisted on trying to strip Ichigo down to his boxers for magazene photos...
(Does it work? Hahahaha NO!)

85. Ask them if you can help wen they look sad
(Relationship status: Dating)
Rukia had been looking pretty down lately and Ichigo was determined to find out why, "Rukia, Honey? Is everything ok?" she nodded slightly, "Is there anything I can do to help?" it was shocking to her how sweet and gentle his voice was, she couldn't help but fess up, "I-I just ... the Kuchiki elders don't like the fact that we're dating, they want me to be with a noble, always have, you no, one of those types that thinks women are for having children and nothing else, I have no intention at all in induldging this but .... it just worries me that they might do something to make you leave so that I'll be free for a noble," he put his arms around her and started to rub her back soothingly, then placed a kiss on her forehead, "Well I have good news," "Wat's that?" "Any guy that even looks at you will no longer be anatmoically correct," she couldn't help but to laugh at that, 'She's smiling again, mission acomplished,' he mused
(Does it work? Ofcourse)

86. Take her to see a romantic movie and remember all her favirote parts
(Relationship status: Engaged)
Rukia smiled and stared down at her engagement ring again, Ichigo had proposed only an hour ago and her heart was still fluttering, "Hey Baby," she looked over the couch and saw Ichigo coming forward with a bowl of strawberries and bottle of sparkling cyder, "You no wat I got for us to watch tonight?" she blinked and shook her head, he smirked and showed her the movie, she smiled, "Blood & Chocolate" always had been her favirote movie, "And I made sure I got the one with the extended scenes," she smiled, "Wow, I really DO love you!" she laughed, he shrugged, "AND, I just put in a batch of cookies so they'll be ready for the scene in the church were Vivian takes Aiden to see the palace of the lugarus," she clapped, "That's my favirote part! Besides the scene in the forest with the silver," "Yeah I no, but I want cookies now so I wasn't waiting for that one," she laughed again, "You're seriouse aren't you?" "100%"
(Does it work? 100% Yes)

87. Always ask them how they feel and for their opinion on something
(Relationship status: Married)
"Morning," Rukia yawned and smiled up at her husband, "Morning," "How do you feel?" "Good, you?" "Good," she rolled out of bed and walked over to the make up table that was set up in the hotel room, "Hmmm ... do you think I should wear my hair up today?" he smiled, "Yeah, I think an up-do would be cute," she smiled, "Ok," she grabbed a hair tie and started her way to the bathroom wen Ichigo called out, "Uh, do you want to go to Seawold today or Bush Gardens," she giggled, "Surprise me,"
(Does it work? Oh yes, it works)

88. Buy a bunch of balloons and put little notes inside them (ie: Back-rub, one minute kiss, etc.,) then pop all the balloons as fast as you can and collect as many notes as you can for your partner to fulfill
(Relationship status: Dating)
The fact that they had the house to themselves was better than anything else for this, Rukia was going to surprise Ichigo by setting up a game that she had read about in one of her magazenes, "Rukia? Wat's with all the balloons?" she smirked and explained the game to him, "Pop as many as you can, as fast as you can, and collect as many notes as you can," she explained, he nodded and she handed him a sewing needle much like her own, she smirked, he smirked back, "1, 2, 3!" she counted, and they both started to run around and pop balloons, but after only a couple Rukia put her needle down and covered her ears, Ichigo, noticing this, stopped popping them, "Rukia is something wrong?" she nodded, "I'm getting a really bad headache and my ears are ringing..." he brushed the hair out of her face, "Oh I'm sorry, go upstairs and lay down, I'll pop the rest of these and then come up with some cookies, chocolate, and Exedrin Migraine, then I'll give you a massage ok?" she smiled and stood up, "Ok," 'Wow he has good bedside manor....' she thought on her way upstairs, 'Maybe getting sick every now and then isn't such a bad thing after all...'
(Does it work? No, it would if it weren't for the balloons but that's half the point)

89. Leave a trail of rose petals on the ground that lead to something romantic
(Relationship status: Married)
Ichigo stretched as he opened the door, "Rukia, I'm home," he called, no answer, he looked down and saw that there was a trail of rose petals leading upstairs, curiose, he followed it, it lead into the bedroom (wich was only lightened by candels) and onto the bed, were a surprise lay, he smirked, there was a huge set of Hello Panda cookies (A/N: They're small, chocolate filled cookies; about twenty to a box) laid in the shape of a heart, "Hey there," he turned around and in the doorway stood Rukia in one of his long t-shirts, a small drop of drool made it's way down his chin, she giggled, "You like?" she asked, popping a cookie in her mouth, "I don't no wat I want more, the cookies or you,"
(Does it work? Oh, believe me, it works)

90. Have a fight with water guns!
(Relationship status: Dating)
Rukia glanced around the tree, her heart was racing, the adrinaline rush was incredable, "Found ya' Midget!" she turned around and covered her face with her arm as Ichigo squirted her with water, she pulled the trigger of her water gun and did the same to him, "Not so fast Strawberry!" she laughed
(Does it work? Yep)
