She set her head in his lap and sighed.
"Yeah..."

Baliy came over and licked her face before running around the house. Ivan chuckled and stroked her head. "you sure about that?" he asked as he looked at her, not convinced.

She smiled and shook her around and set her down.
"I'm fine."

Ivan smiled and kissed her head, "okay, if you say so." he said as he looked at her

She stuck out her tongue and smiled.

Ivan chuckled and stroked her cheek lovingly.

His large warm thumb was roughly scraping on her soft cheek, but oddly, it felt good. She stood up and blasted the radio. "You spin me right round" came on and she started dancing like an idiot.

Ivan laughed as he watched her and the puppy started to jump up and down next to her. Ivan then walked over and started to dance with her happly and kissed her cheek.

She fell over on the couch, gasping for air and laughing.

Ivan calapsed next to her and laughing his head off.

She smiled and grabbed her phone.
"Be right back."

Ivan watched her go and owndered where she was going

She whispered a few things into the phone in the next room and came out with a big grin.
"Tomorrow will be your best birthday ever!"

Ivan laughed, he had completely forgotten that tomorrow was his birthday.

She jumped up and down and hopped in his lap.

Ivan laughed and kissed her cheek, "I am surprised that you didn't keep it a secret till tomorrow so that you could surprise me." he said as he looked at her.

"Nope!"
By the way she was being treated she felt like she was supposed to get a callisteia.

Ivan smiled and kissed her cheek, "but thanks for telling me and your the greatest."

"I know!"
She said with a giggle. Her face suddenly went serious for no reason.

Ivan looked at her, "what is with the face? I want to see a smile." he said and kissed her nose then lips

She set an obviously fake smile on her face, then a real one. She sunk down in her seat and sat there.

Ivan smiled at her and kissed her forhead then leand back in his seat. He soon found himself falling asleep.

She stood up when suddenly her mouth was covered by a large hand, then total darkness.

Ivan woke up when he didn't hear anything and saw that Ichigo wasn't there. He jumped to his feet and started to look for her.

"I'm not here to hurt you, I'm here to keep you safe."
Said a gruff voice.

She just whimpered lightly.
