Scarlet smiled in happiness. [color=33ff99]I have such a sweet and sensitive boyfriend...[/color] The thought shocked her. For she had never had a boyfriend. But it also turned her smile softer and more daydreamy.
Ivan's gaze drifted toward Scarlet, where he noted how pretty her smile was. "Your eyes are beautiful." He pointed out. Ivan was enjoying his walk with Scarlet... even when it began to snow.
[color=33ff99]"Thanks."[/color] Scarlet tried to sound humble but it came out sounding slightly smug. [color=33ff99]"And your hair..."[/color] She reached up with her free hand and ran her fingers through it.
Ivan grinned. "Did I mention that I love your voice?" He asked, thinking back. He was pretty sure that he said something along those lines back at the restaurant, but he felt it was good to remind her anyway.
Scarlet nodded. She then joked, [color=33ff99]"Am I supposed to say something I like about you now? Because, sorry to tell you, there's nothing else I like."[/color] She grinned cheekily.
Ivan playfully ruffled Scarlet's hair. "Well there's a lot more I like about you!" Ivan had never really been in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship before. He wondered how a person could tell whether or not they were in one without asking. The thought had crossed his mind: Was he in a relationship with Scarlet?
Scarlet raised her eyebrows. [color=33ff99]"Well, that's good, I guess."[/color] She suddenly broke out from the refuge of Ivan's wings and spred her arms wide and spun around. She stuck her tongue out, catching snowflakes.
Ivan sat down, watching Scarlet. "Just as no two snowflakes are the same, you're one-of-a-kind, Scarlet." He said. He still kept an eye out for anyone who looked suspicious.
((He only gets like this around Scarlet. Honest!))
Ivan smiled at Scarlet with adoration. He thought back to how it all began: He had been watching her as a rabbit. Ivan laid down in the snow for a moment before sitting up again. He looked back at where he had lain. Every feather had left its mark in the snow. It was the perfect snow-angel. With Scarlet there, he felt like he was in the presence of an angel.
