Faster...Faster. Faster!

Blonde haired boy started running faster to a little source of light above single bench. When he finally found himself surrounded by calming and safe luminosity, he sighed deeply. He was lost...and afraid.

That boy's name was Yukine. God Yato's regalia. He got somehow separated from his master and it was slowly getting dark...and Yukine was afraid of murk.

He sat on a cold bench that was a little covered in snow. Just a while ago it stopped snowing.
Young boy watched as his breath slowly turned into small clouds. It calmed him a bit...

Suddenly something caught his attention. A person. He or she was approaching him with aggressive steps. Yukine sat straight and looked ahead. When that human being was just next to the bench, he peeked at him. It actually happened to be a girl...She was gorgeous with those red cheeks and nose, from cold and probably madness. She was tossing around, taking snow out of her jacket and pockets. She had her (hair color) hair wet a little with residues of snow. She was also shivering. All of the sudden Yukine wanted to warm her up...

Just as she heard his thoughts, (hair color) haired girl moved her gaze straight at him. A pair of (eyes color) eyes were analyzing his face. Even if she wasn't able to see him, blonde haired boy blushed.

- What are you looking at? - her words were sharp like a knife. It was so surprising for Yukine that he couldn't speak. He was just sitting there with wide eyes and ajar lips.

Stranger girl sighed and sat beside him.

- Hey, are you okay? I'm sorry if I sounded rude...I just...can't stand that winter...So, um...what's your name? - she asked with a soft smile and gave Yukine a hand to shake. - I'm (Name).

Amber eyed boy was still paralyzed, this time also by her beauty. She was stunning and characteristic signs of cold were just making her cute. He just shook his head slightly and shook her palm.

- I'm Yukine...Y-You can actually see me...?

- What kind of question is that? Of course I can see you... - she cocked her head a bit and let go of his hand.

- Um...Never mind.

- Uh, okay...

For a moment there was an awkward silence between them. He was thinking about her gorgeous eyes and she had a feeling she's talking with some sort of weirdo...

- So, you said you don't like winter, right? - Yukine started slowly.

- Yeah...I hate it...! - (Name) clenched her fists on her skirt.

- Why? Winter is beautiful.

- No, it's not. Well, you see...ALWAYS, on winters I lose my scarf...or gloves...or someone bury me in snow because they know I hate it. I can't stand that cool temperature and darkness. - she looked Yukine straight into eyes to let him know she's serious.

Blonde haired boy touched his pastel blue scarf and quickly took it off. He moved closer to (Name) and wrapped it around her neck. He even covered her cold nose.

- There...You can have this. - Yukine said almost whispering. (Hair color) haired girl dabbed warm piece of clothing on her neck and inhaled its scent lightly. It was actually nice...

- Why are you helping me? - she locked her (eyes color) eyes into Yukine's amber ones.

- I don't know...You seem somehow special...just like winter. - he smiled softly.

- Y-You barely know me. - good that scarf was covering (Name)'s blush.

- That doesn't matter. You're going to forget me anyway...but please remember one thing. The Warmth...I gave you. Promise me now winter is going to remind you of this warm feeling... - Yukine put his warm hand on her cold one.

- What do you mean...? - she whispered.

- Just promise.

- I promise.

Blonde haired boy moved his scarf from (Name)'s face and cupped her cheek with other hand. He leaned slowly, his lips still stretched in a smile. Yukine brushed his lips against (Name)'s, placing warm, sweet kiss. She melted into that, wrapping her arms around blonde's bare neck.

When they pulled away, (Name) left her eyelids closed.

- What am I doing...kissing a stranger. - she smiled lightly. Yukine slid his finger upon her cheek with a sad look.

- Yeah...You're crazy. - he also smiled, but with melancholy. - I need to go, (Name).

She opened her eyes quickly and saw another man behind Yukine's back who was already standing next to bench. (Hair color) haired girl stood up.

- Will we ever meet again? - she asked hopefully.

- Maybe... - amber eyed boy sent her last rueful gaze and vanished.

In (Name)'s corners of eyes tears gathered but she was smiling...clutching at Yukine's scarf.

- I'm leaving! - (Name) shouted and opened the door. It was snowing. She inhaled deeply and headed to school. For some time now, (hair color) haired girl was cheerful at winter days. She wasn't sure what changed her like that...

The only thing she knew that every time when she was touching and sniffing that pastel blue scarf on her neck - she had a warm feeling inside her stomach. And the best thing was that she didn't lose it yet!

With a smile upon her lips, she buried her face deeper into scarf.

She had no idea that a blonde haired boy was just passing by. He stopped and followed her with his gaze. She was so beautiful...

A single tear slid down upon Yukine's cheek...but he was happy. At least something that belongs to him will keep her Warm.
