Ichabod felt as if he were the last living creature on earth; he always did in weather like this. There was no wind and snow was falling on an already blanketed landscape. He was out on a walk, enjoying his own company, when he heard snow crunching off to his left. And like the bold character he was, turned to investigate.
In the middle of a clearing, with the snow all scattered and messed with, was a helix. Ichabod's blood ran white-hot, and he froze. Her black and blue fur against the sparkling snow was, with no doubt in his mind, the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. Before she noticed him, he trotted toward her. He couldn't help but smile a little when he greeted her.
"So, you like the snow, huh? I do." He hoped his sudden appearance wouldn't startle her to badly.

In the midst of her play she didn't realize the orange helix who came upon her untill he spoke, witch in turn caused her to spin to face the newcommer, when her back leg slipped on a patch of ice and sent her back end falling from under neath her. The black and blue helix landed with a muffled plop and a surprised "oh" from her lips. Slowly, and blushing greatly, Anastasia rose to all fours and looked at the helix before her. His colors instantly reminded her of summer, wich inturn made her feel happy....er. "Oh, its great fun when one has the modivation." Her earlier embarasment forgotten, she gave him a soft smile in greeting.

He watched her slide with amusement, his tail swaying slightly.
"What's your name?" He asked bluntly.
"And if I may say so, you're stunning. May I accompany you?" Ichabod asked, though it wasn't really a question. He was already trotting over to her. When he reached her, he had his down, as if looking at the snow, but his eyes were on her. He lifted a paw and playfully and flicked snow her way, inviting her to join him.

"Anastasia, and you would be?" Anastasia watched as he came over to her, she was about ready to reply to him but then realized that it wouldn't matter. He would play any ways. She blushed at the compliment and was slightly surprised when snow hit her leg. She jerked her head in his direction and swiped some snow his way, a smile spreading across her face.

Soon they were frolicking and romping, snow flying all around them. Amid the play, Ichabod smiled widely and said, "Call me Ichabod... Anastasia." He fell to a play-bow; chest against the snow, rump in the air. His tail was wagging and his tongue was lolling like a little pup's. He was never like this, but he was defiantly enjoying himself. He vaguely wondered if this newly met stranger was having as much fun.
In the heat of the moment, he bounced up to her and licked her cheek, but quickly darted back out of the way. Again, he felt that smile he couldn't resist, brought up by his stolen kiss. He awaited her reaction.

Anastasia was panting, her ice blue eyes bright with excitment in their play. She turned to look at Ichabod in his play-bow, her own tail waving in the excitement. The air was thick with the falling snow, the flakes had gradually gotten bigger as it continued. She let out a playfull bark at him, "Ichabod.." and that was all she got out before she was stunned to silence. Had he just...? No.... But..... Anastasia blinked a few times, a blush on her face. "Why sir, do you always go and steal kisses from pretty females?" She took a small step twards him, and then another, and when she was right infront of him she grinned and returned the kiss with a lick on the nose, before she herself hopped away, snow flying up from her back paws while she giggled. Generally, she wasn't so out going with other helixes, letting them do all the talking as she listened, saying the right things in the right places to keep the conversation going.

Before he could charmingly reply 'No, only you' to her question, he was taken aback by her returning action. What emotions rushed through him at her touch! He couldn't believe how worked over he was by someone he didn't even know.
When Anastasia ran, he took off after her without even thinking. 'What could be better than the thrill of the chase?' Ichabod thought as they swerved though trees in their own little winter wonder land. 'Perhaps the catch?' he lunged for her and managed to knock her over. Breathing heavy, he stood over her; they were nearly nose to nose. He smirked.
"Wish I could think of a witty line to say here..." He said almost nervously.

Well this was different. Anastasia swerved in and out of trees, giggling so hard it was no surprise that Ichabod had tackled her to the ground. She rolled over onto her back only to be a whisper away from being nose to nose with Ichabod, whom was crouched over her. Ice blue eyes met with sunny orange eyes and she smiled. Her chest still heaved from all of the exersize, blowing her cool breath into Ichabods face. She really wasn't sure what to say, she'd never been in this situation and was virtually new to every thing that was happening to her with this new helix. "Are you having fun?" Her hear tilted ever so slightly to the left, giving off an adorable look that made herr look like a puppy again.

"Absolutely." He responded. Damn was she cute. Ichabod leapt off her and shook his coat free of all the snow that had collected in it.
He looked over at her, hiding a smile. "Want to take a walk?" He held a paw out in front of him, as if saying 'ladies first' and inviting her to start.
He wanted to just talk with her. After all, he didn't know anything about her. Maybe she was just like all the other helixes he'd ever met: annoying, boring, pretentious, backstabbing, stupid, the list of traits he couldn't stand goes on. Ichabod's eyes gave her another scan. It seemed she wasn't any of those things, but who knew?

Anastasia smiled as she rolled to her paws, also shaking the snow from her fur. Ichabod made her smile with his odd, forward charm. "Glad to hear your enjoying your self." She licked a snow flake from her nose.
"A walk sounds nice, thank you." Light plue paws sunk into the snow as she walked through the naked, sleeping trees. She turned and looked at Ichabod, "So, do you often join in playing with random helixes?" She smiled lightly to him as hey walked.

Ichabod chuckled... a rare event.
"No. This is a first and momentous occasion for me." He watched her from the corner of his eye. Looking forward, listening to the snow crunching beneath their paws he asked "And you? Are you the social butterfly of helixes?"
He liked that analogy. The term 'butterfly' fit her well.

Anastasia shook her head at his question. "I more of like to be in the background, listening to others conversations." She smiled. Lookie at her now, she thought. Little Anastasia can talk. She rolled her eyes at her thoughts. All the ignorant helixes who thought she was mute, they never gave her a reason to speak, so why should she talk to them? Ichabod on the other hand had pretty much made her talk, and drew her away from her silent shell, although they just met.
(Its funny, she was actually supposed to have butterfly wings, but I didn't have the gold and I didn't want her to be eastern.)

((Realy?! Well, she can be Ichabod's little butterfly heart ))
So she wasn't annoying... no, the opposite in fact; fun, easy going, a conversationalist, a pleasure to be around.
"Hhmmm... So, Anastasia, how do you spend your time? Do you have a pack? Family? ....A mate?" As he prodded her with questions, he began to think about all the things he didn't know. At the idea of her having 'someone', unease and even anger began to grow in him. He didn't realize he thought of her that way, until he thought of her having 'someone'.

Anastasia perked up a bit at his prodding questions, but then callmed down. There was no sense in getting excited over them. He could honestly just be genuinly curious...but couldn't a girl hope otherwise? "Well generally I love to be out in the sun when its warmer out, just soaking it up really. But since its cold out and what not right now, even though you might not belive me, I'm a little more lazy, trying to be all curled up and snuggly." She smiled and shook her head at his next three questions. "No, I don't have any of that going for me." SHe smiled and looked over to him, "And what about you Ichabod? How do you spend your time? Do you have a pack? Family? A mate?" Her smile grew slightly teasing as she repeated his sentence back to him.

At the mention of the sun, Ichabod puffed his chest out, raised his head, and walked proudly at attention... he was being a smart-a**, acting as though she were talking about him. But at the mention of snuggling, he looked at her, and relaxed.
He smirked. "Me either." He reached over and playfully tugged her ear. Should he come out with it? He had never felt the urge to watch his words before, but if he wasn't blunt... how would she ever know he liked her?
.....It didn't matter how soon it was, Ichabod was never one to deny his feelings or instincts. He didn’t know any other way. He opened his mouth to tell her, but suddenly couldn’t find any words. What if he ruined this? He closed his mouth and looked away, feeling odd an dismayed.
