[IC] A Whole New World

[Soul Hunter]

"I'll teach you that's why I'm let ting you watch how different humans interact with each other" she said to him softly and Wisp nudged her snorting a little. "You still have a lot to learn and it's hard to teach anyone how to be human so you need to learn to relax and take everything in your own stride. In other words don't rush"

[KatherinWinter]

Zack nodeed. He knew she was right. He couldn't rush it. But the more time he spent trying to learn to fit in the longer she would be in danger. If she got hurt it would be his fault. He couldn't allow her to be hurt because of him. He continued running his thumb over her lips. "I love your liked. You're so soft and lush."

[Soul Hunter]

"Thanks" she said a little red in the cheeks still and looked to him before she kissed his thumb softly "Reminds me I have something to tell you when we get back" she said to him and smiled "It's something good so don't worry" she smiled and went out the stable grabbing grooming kit and began to brush Wisp down.

[KatherinWinter]

Zack smiled pleased when she kissed his thumb. As he watched her brush the foal he wondered what she had to tell him. He was curious what kind of good news she wanted to share. He couldn't think of single thing she could tell him now. But considering how shy she was it could be anything.

[Soul Hunter]

Ketia got him to help out showing him who to and afterwards let the foal frolic around in the pasture before heading back with him. Once there she took a deep breath "Well…Bit embarrassing to ask but… would you like to go out as in girlfriend boyfriend go out?" she asked him embarrassed.

[KatherinWinter]

"I don't understand these words." Zack replied. He tried to remember if he had heard them during his brief time on Earth. He was pretty sure he had but he was still unclear as to their meaning. "What do they mean?"

[Soul Hunter]

Keita began explaining ti to him as best she could despite her embarrassment and then just waited for his reaction before looking away a little nervous at the same time now before she looked to him again "Well…your answer?"

[KatherinWinter]

Zack tilted his head. "You want to be seen with me in public? Go to movies and dinners together? Do you think I'm ready interact with you in that way? I wouldn't want to embarrass you. I know I don't have this whole thing down yet. Why do you want to risk dating me?" He asked.

[Soul Hunter]

"It's because..I.. love you" saying the last bit quietly, she really was rather shy more so when it came to this kind of topic as well. She fiddled with her fingers waiting for him to respond. "and You'll be fine…so don't worry so much"

[KatherinWinter]

"You..." Zack could believe his ears. Had she said what he thought she had seen. She couldn't have fallen for him while he wasnt watching had she. Zack gentle caressed her cheek. "Tell me that you mean it." He begged her. "Tell me that you want to be with me the way mates are with each other." Zack caressed her hair.

[Soul Hunter]

She watched and listened to him trying to think of the right words and nodded at what he said "I do want to be like that but it'll take a little bit of time before we're completely there but I do want o be with you the way mates are with each other" she said to him blushing heavily now and was glad her hair seemed to hide her cheeks a little.

[KatherinWinter]

Zack tipped her head up so that he could look into her eyes. "I don't care if it takes years. The fact that you are willing to true. Thank you. You have no idea how much this means to me. He kissed her deeply. He ran his hands up and down her back.

[Soul Hunter]

Caught off guard wight he deep kiss she gasped but did slowly begin to kiss him back smiling as she felt his hands moving up and down her back. Pulling away needing to breathe again she smiled "I told you it was something good though didn't I?" she said to him.

[KatherinWinter]

"That you did." Zack caressed her cheek. "I don't know if I am going to keep myself from touching you now." he took a deep breath and stepped away from her. "I would like to try dating you. You'll have to show me how to do it. I am sure that your people do it much different then mine."

[Soul Hunter]

"Well what to they do when dating where you come from?" she asked him "If you tell me I'll be able to tell you if it's any different" she said to him and sat down giving a slight sigh "Well then, tell me and I won't mind too much fi you touch me here but maybe not so much in public a lot of people might find it a little awkward"

[KatherinWinter]

"We don't really date. Not in the way you explained. When my people find there mates we touch all the time. We do this so that people will know that the female has been claimed. So she will carry our scent and our mark at all times. We must mate quickly or risk losing our woman to another. There is no time for dinner or movies. Men most claim their mates with days or the risk having to fight for their mate."

[Soul Hunter]

"Well usually it takes a little longer than days for that kind of thing to happen here on earth, there isn't as much of a shortage you could say" she said to him "I forgot you told me about such a thing before briefly when we first met" she said to him. "Well on earth we spend time getting to know each other as more than just friends and eventually people do get intimate and some even marry which is like officially announcing to people that your mates" she said to him. "Plus on earth our noses aren't sensitive enough to pick up the scent of another person on someone"

[KatherinWinter]

"On my world we must be able to pick up the scent off each other. Otherwise we would not know who belongs to who. How do your people tell if someone is take?" zack asked.

[Soul Hunter]

"Well depends on the stage in they relationship, if people are just boyfriend girlfriend then usually they ask if they don't know, if they are engaged then usually the women wears an engagement ring and sometimes the man as well and then if their married then they both have a wedding ring" she explained to him.

[KatherinWinter]

"Your world is very complicated." Zack told her. "It would be considered rude to ask if someone is taken on my world. And jewelry is only for the upper class. I think I will enjoy trying things your way. How do we start this dating?"
