It's the end of the year, December, the month of Christmas Trees and Santa Claus.
It's been 9 months since the Mistress of Time, Ouro Kronii, trespassed on your life.
The both of you were standing in the winter cold, staring up at a massive Christmas tree that dotted the center of the plaza, covered in a pile of lights set the night sky ablaze.
"Never understood the point of this holiday. You humans celebrate the birth of a religious figure by waiting for some old man from the North Pole to deliver presents? So odd." Kronii wasn't wearing her usual outfit, you guess even a being like her was susceptible to the weather.
She was wearing a dull-grey woolen overcoat, that unfortunately did a good job in concealing the size of her bust or the shapeliness of her hips.
On her head, instead of the typical chains and faux bridal veil, was a black wool toque that had a white rabbit like pom-pom. It was yours, another victim of Kronii's kleptomania.
Covering her neck and the overcoat was a long flowing cashmere brown scarf that reached to her hips, it was Kronii's most prized possession, the first thing you bought for her during some bargain hunting. She liked the feeling of the fabric and you were stunned by how cheap it was considering it's high quality.
Covering her hands were grey-white gloves, they are also yours and thus a little oversized, you thought it looked cute on her.
On her legs were very tight skinny jeans, so tight that the denim was stretching to a point if it were not for the coat you could have seen her panty outline.
Completing the outfit were two worn black rubber combat boots, they were yours back in high school when you were undergoing your Hot Topic phase, now they were too big for you but thankfully were a perfectly fit for Kronii.
"Most of the time, Christmas is just an excuse for couples to have fun." You rub your hands together, in comparison to Kronii you were a bit less extravagant in your clothing options. Just a hoodie and some cargo pants, you were built for the cold.
"Couples?" She looks at you, you can see the exhale of her breath. Her blue eyes reflected the Christmas lights like a cat's. It looked so beautiful.
"Yeah couples, like us right?" Kronii snorts at you derisively.
"We're not a couple." She rubs her covered hands together, obviously shivering, yet you can see her cheeks were flushed with heat. You smile to yourself, you're used to this.
"Want to get some coffee? Ah I mean chocolate?" You offer an outstretched palm towards her, you needed to warm her up with your body heat.
She stares, as if your hand was a sharp knife. She closes her eyes in contemplation.
She grabs it, hesitantly.
You suddenly release most of your fingers, leaving only your pinkies interlocked.
"Let's go." You lead her to the nearest coffee shop.
She's flustered by this, looking around at all the other couples surrounding you that were doing similarly romantic types of gestures.
This lovely dovey stuff was such a weird thing to her.
She raises her scarf just a little upwards, covering the small smile that was forming on her face.
She couldn't say that she liked it.
