Giyuu's pov:
I walk along a frosty sidewalk, a buzzing city to my right and a beautiful ocean view to my left. I listen to the calm sound of waves crashing upon waves, with a toned sound of people and cars in the background.
It was a quiet day, and i got up early to go for a walk before i go to 'work'. As a promotion for a friends ice skating rink, she asked if i could teach people how to ice skate...
I'm not the best with words nor people so i doubt it will end well. I look to my right, taking in the beautiful sunrise and the frosty sand getting drifted away by the cold ocean as snowflakes slowly fell into the water.
My focus then drifted to the benches infront of me, which i happily sat on to admire the view without worrying about accidentally running into someone while in my own world.
The bench was cold and partially covered in snow, so i just brushed the snow off lightly and sat down. The view looked even more astonishing from where i sat. Far better than how it looks in Summer.
I took a deep breath as i inhaled the frosty air, bringing my hands up to my face shortly after to warm my face. I placed my skates close to me as i snuggled into my scarf. Peacful i think to myself, enjoying the current mood.
That was until i heard a small meow from infront of me. I look down at me feet to see a small cat wearing a jacket and gloves, sitting infront of me. I looked around to see anyone, but there was no one who seemed to know the cat, they just walked off to their jobs.
So i picked it up and placed it in my lap. Seeing as my lap is far warmer than the cold concrete of the sidewalk. I stroked it's fur gently as it purred. It was nice. Although it was a bit odd seeing as the cat is wearing winter clothes.
Suddenly, there are footsteps running towards me. I look up to see a man, around my age with peachy hair and a scar across his face, wearing a tracksuit and... A baby pouch?
"Excuse me! That's– *huff* my cat" he said, trying to catch his breath. He looks pretty cold just wearing a tracksuit...
"Sorry" i say, handing the cat back to him. He takes the cat and puts it back into his baby pouch before laughing slightly.
"Don't worry, he just ran off while i was resting" he says before taking a seat on the bench i was sitting on.
His eyes then trailed from the ocean, to my side where my skates happened to be.
"Do you ice skate?" He asks, pointing at my skates. I nodd as i unwrap my scarf from my own neck before wrapping it around his. He stays shocked for a moment until i say my reasoning.
"You'll get cold" I look to the side, avoiding eye contact. When i look back at him for a moment, he smiles brightly, a pink tinting his cheeks. I blush as i quickly turn to my phone for distraction, jolting as i see the time.
"Thank yo—" before he can finish, i spring up and start running to the nearest bus stop, shouting, "I'm gonna be late!" As i ran.
I arrive at the bus stop just in time, before getting on, paying and sitting down. I huff as i look to my side. I left my skates with that stranger!? I start panicking before calming myself down a little. I can just borrow a pair from Shinobu... But they were a gift from tsutako.... I look out the window, both sad and disappointed that i lost the skates that my now dead sister gave to me..

I gloomily walk to the ice skating rink, thinking about how stupid i was. Not only did i give him my scarf... But i also left my skates with him! I don't even know his name, let alone have his number...
Once i arrive at the building, i open the doors and walk up to the front desk. As i walk up, i notice that there's someone else at the front today. It was a young boy with black hair, dyed blue at the tips which is similar to what shinobu has. His face screams that he didn't want to be here... I could be wrong.
"Where's shinobu, Muichiro?" I ask as he looks up at me from his computer. He then points down the hall, which has a sign saying 'staff only'.
"She's in her office" he says before going back to playing coreball on the computer. I nod saying thank you before walking down the hall. As soon as i get there i knock before entering and lying down on the sofa.
"Not even a hello tomioka? My, my, so rude" she says sarcastically as she puts down the money she was counting before walking over to me and bending over.
"What happened this time?" She asks smiling. I sigh as i feel saddened just by thinking about what i did.
"I accidentally left my skates with a cute guy..." I say before realizing what i actually said and covering my mouth.
Shinobu giggles as she steps back getting somethong from one of the many cupboards. She then walks back over to me and pkaces it on my stomach.
"Those were getting too small anyway, so we got you new ones" she says, still smiling.
I get up and look at the pair. The other ones were hurting my feet a lot and they did make me mess up a few times... But they came from my sister...
"What do you mean by 'we'?" I ask, trying the skates on.
"Muichiro and tanjiro chose them, I bought them, and mitsuri decorated them with what the two boys thought you'd like!" She smiles as she sits back down in her seat.
I look at the skates, then at shinobu a few times before smiling. "Thank you..." I say. I'll use these ones for now... Maybe I'll like them more than tsutako's? I think to myself before frowning, i doubt it... These may be a gift from my friends but–
"No more bad thoughts! Get out there and go teach, Tanjiro will help you" shinobu smiles as she pushes me out of her office.
I sigh as i make my way over to the rink, meeting Tanjiro on the way. Luckily he's on winter break, other wise I'd be dead from the social interaction.
