Ice Skating Rink

Hito looked around, there were atleast 9 people skating around, he could already see that atleast 6 of them were pairs, possibly in a relationship, sitting down, and putting on his skatesm he stood up, unbalanced, shaking slightly, he placed a hand on the railing of the ice skating rink, and jumped over, landing on the ice elegantly. Bend his knee's, and skated forward. he spun around once, and stopped, sliding both hands into his pocket. his mouth slightly open, he breathed out, the heat of his breath reacting with the air outside, a small cloud of dust formed infront of his head, and drifted up into the sky..

Samantha sat on one of the benches, watching as other students skated back and forth. She blinked, her face free of all emotion. Her ears twitched lightly at all the sounds around her. She enjoyed having puppy dog ears, they allowed her to hear better. She was in a particularly good mood, that day, she didn't know why. She did not show it either. Though she was feeling happy and cheerful, no smile appeared on her face, and her eyes were dull and empty as usual. Bringing her knees up to her chest, she hugged them watching as students continued to skate.

Hito spun around once more, and bend down. Resulting into a jump, he jumped about 5 ft forward, which is when he saw sammy, by first look he just gazed upon her, and didn't really take his time to even look at her, but then something caught his attention, something was twitching on her head. He looked at it for a minute, and caught himself blushing, the turned away from her.. Dog ears.. The only thing in the world he could not resist..

-Oy-

He sprinted towards her, and spun around, standing in front of her, hands still in his pocket..

She blinked, looking up at Hito. She recognized him from before, he was the boy she had met at the cliff. Looking up at him she wondered what he was doing. "Hello again." She said, her voice soft and quiet. A student made a sharp turn, her skates scraping the ice and making an odd noise. Hearing this Samantha's ears twitched again.

Hito's heart was beating fast, and he felt a drop of sweat sweep down his face, he had the unusual need to touch her ears, and leaned forward to do so, reached out his hand for her ear, but decided not to, and lowered his hand again, holding it out too greet her..

-Hello.. Im Hito in case you forgot-

She nodded "Yes...I remember you." She said, taking his hand, and shaking it lightly. "It is nice to see you agian." She said, her voice was soft and gentle. It sounded cheerful and sweet, yet her face held no emotion. She blinked, her ears twitching at all the noises that were being made around her.

He leaned in closer to her, and slipped the other hand out of his pocket, reaching it out to touch her ear, he just could not help himself anymore, rubbing the tip of the ear in between two fingers, a smile widened on his face, he then looked down at sammy with a surprised look, and stumbled back withdrawing his hand as well..

-Sorry-

Chills run down her spine when Hito touches her ears and she blushes brightly. "mmnn..." she said, as the hairs on the back of her neck rise up. "n-neh" she said, blinking up at Hito. "I-it's...alright." She said, turning her face to the floor. Her ears had always been her weakness. Chills always ran down her spine when someone touched them or whispered into them. It didn't bother her, it felt good acctually. Although, it often made her feel weak. She scratched her cheek with her index finger wondering what to say, "You like to skate...Hito-San?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. The chain that was conected to the clamp around her neck, rattled slightly, making her ears twitch once more.

Hito skated back, and spun around, then stopped, holding out a hand for her. He smiled at her, and bend forward so it would be easier for her to take his hand, the same time a skating couple passed by him, causing him to sidestep slightly, he stumbled away from sammy, but quickly regained balance and skated closer to her again..

-Yes i do.. Would you like to skate with me?-

She blinked, staring at his hand. "I...I do not know how to skate." She said looking up at him, her ears twitching. "And I have no shoes." She was truly disappointed by this. She had always wanted to try skating. She knew she could rent skates, but she did not have much money with her. Life was being unfair to her, yet again.

Hito brushed a hand through his white hair and turned around, although not facing sammy he skated closer to her, and kneeled down, reaching out both hands, to show her that she could ride on his back..

-That is not a problem, come with me.. I'll buy you some skates-

She blinked, a small smile appearing on her face. She made sure that Hito did not see her smile and slowly climbed onto his back. "Thank you Hito-san." She said, her ears twitching as the leash chain around her neck rattled again.

Hito started skating forward, although he had sammy on his back he tried to his fullest to do some tricks, to show a little off. Spun around which worked, but then he jumped once, and it all looked beautiful.. Until he landed, the actual landing looked good, but sadly he crashed and fell to the floor, smashing his head into the ice..

She held on tightly to HIto as they fell, shutting her eyes tightly. Kyaa! Opening one of her eyes, she could see that they were now on the ice, others were watching, they seemed quite shocked. She sat up, looking towards Hito-San. "Hito-San, are you alright. Hito-San...please...wake up." She said, shaking him lightly.

Hito raised his head, and looked at sammy, blood running from his nose, he was embarassed that everyone was watching, yet he did not feel like doing anything against it right now..

-I am alright-

Standing up, he hold her arm, and kneeled down once again, pulling her onto his back once more, starting to skate once again, leaving behind a stain of blood

She sighed, relieved. "you scared me" She said, softly. "Your bleeding..." Using her sleeve she wiped the blood away gently. "There."

She held on tightly when on his back again, the chain rattaling lightly as they skated along. Her ears twitching. "So...this is skating." She smiled to herself, careful to make sure that no one saw.

Hito smiled as well, as he skated past a couple skating happily together, he speeded up, and spun around about 8 times before stopping completely, letting sammy of his back, he leaned against the railings, and looked at her chain with wonder..

-I'll go get you your skates.. but i need to ask what that chain is for-

She stepped down off his back, a little bit dizzy. "Ah thank you very much, HIto-San. That was fun." She blinked "Oh...this...?" She asked, lifting up the chain. "It's my leash." She stated bluntly. "I am looking for a master." She said, staring at the chain that she held in her hands "I want to become...a slave. I want to work and do all the things slaves do. Thats what I want." She said, looking up at Hito. "That is what this chain is for." She blinked "Is that all?"

Hito looked at her with a puzzled look, without blinking he moved closer to her, and placed a hand on the chain, grabbing it gently, pulling her closer to him in a soft pull..

-Slave.. Master? What kind of slave.. What kind of master?

She shifted her feet, looking up at Hito. "W-well...I...I suppose a master who will order me around. A master who...who will not hesitate to punish me when I have done wrong. One that can dicipline me, and I..." She blinked, looking away "...and I will be...whatever kind of slave...my master wants me to be. If he wants me to be a slave, who kills for him. That is what I wil be. If he wants me to clean for him...that is what I will do. I will be whatever my master needs....that is what a slave must do...no?"

Hito stepped away from her, and once again put both hands in his pocket, shrugging lightly as he looked around, to avoid eye contact with her, true that was what a slave did, but there was one more thing a slave could do, he just did not want to mention it because he might seem like a pervert if he did so..

-So you want someone to punish you?-

"Yes." She said "...and no..." She shifted her feet once again. " I want a master whom I can listen to and obey. It doesn't really matter what he is like. One of the purposes of this, is to learn to obey everything that I am told." She sighed lightly, watching as her breath appeared infront of her. "In other words, I want a master, who will boss me around. Thats all." She rubbed her left eye with the palm of her hand, her ears twitching lightly "Whatever my master says, I will do. When I find he or she that is what I will tell them. Whatever they ask I will obey, no matter what the cost."

Hito let out a sigh, and leaned against the railing once again, next to her, he reached out his hand once again, and toucher her cute ears, poking them gently..

-You know i can be pretty bossy-

A chill ran down her spine as her ear was poked, and a slight blush appeared on her face. "B-bossy?" She looked up at Hito tilting her head to the side "What do you mean?"

He looked way from her, a little embarassed, but decided to act a mighty as he asked his question..

-I mean maybe I can become your master-
