This World

"Oh. Well, alright," Rebekkah told him before stepping aside and calling, "Jacob! One of your friends is here to ask you about school!"

Jacob walked slowly to the door, so his mother would not think he was evasdropping. He frowned at Jillian and sighed.

"Thanks mom. This shouldn't take too long."

Sayo

"Of course, Amy. I can call Zach to give you a ride home, if you want. Or I could walk you home. Whichever you want." Sayo said.

Rebekkah nodded and turned to head for her room, "Okay. Just don't stay up too late. Sleeping past noon is a bad habit to get into when you're on Christmas Vacation. You still have five months of school left."

((....I assume you're talking about Jacob. His father is dead, unless you mean her boyfriend. And they aren't married yet.))

(Oh. Right. Will edit.)

"Ok mom," Jacob called. He shut the door and looked at Jillian, still looking upset.

"You ok?"

"Fine. You're just lucky my mom doesn't know you so well," Jacob said, smiling a little. The pair headed off.

"So where do you want to go?"
------------
Zach parked in front of the skating rink and got out.

"Let's go."
------------
"Walk," Amy said.

Orion smiled as he got out of the car and took Zach's hand.

"Let's," he agreed as he led her towards the booth that rented out skates.

"We could go ice skating," Jillian suggested. Jacob raised an eyebrow at the suggestion. No way was he going to do such a thing. But Jillian looked really excited about it.

"If you want," he said.
-------------
Zach thanked the guy at the booth and sat down, pulling off her shoes.

"I bet you I'll fall first," Zach said. She wasn't that good on ice.

"You're probably right," Orion teased as he slid on one of his skates, "But, I'll try to keep you steady. That's supposed to be romantic, right?"

Sayo

"Ok." Sayo said. He linked his arm with Amy's. "You ready?"

"Unless I bring us both down on our asses," Zach said, with a smile. "Come on let's go."
------------
"Yeah," Amy said weakly.

Orion grinned at her and stood up, taking her hand and leading her to the ice rink, "Don't worry. I'll kiss you better if you fall."

Sayo

Sayo nodded and began to walk Amy away from the woods. It didn't take them long to enter back into the city. Once they were halfway to Zach's house, Sayo turned to Amy.

"Are you sure you're ok, Amy? You don't need to see a doctor, or anything?"

"I'll be ok," Amy reassured Sayo. "I think I just need some rest. But thank you."
-----------
"Aww," Zach said, kissing Orion's cheek. "You're so sweet."

Zach slid out onto the ice, wobbling a little. But she didn't fall.

"And you're very graceful," Orion teased as he he slid out and held onto Zach's hands to make sure she didn't fall.

Zach smiled at Orion, laughing a little at herself. She rarely liked to look weak, but with Orion, it was ok.
-----------
Jacob and Jillian entered the skate rink. Jacob sighed, really not wanting to be here, but Jillian looked happy, so he kept quiet. Then he heard Jillian give out a feminine cry and knock Jacob to the ground.

"Jillian as much as you want me, I don't think you should do anything here in the open," he said with a smirk. Jillian shot him a look.

"Orion and Zach are here," he said, pointing to the rink. Jacob looked to see it was true.

"Shit."

Orion blinked, hearing a girl's yell, but shrugged it off. People fall down all the time when ice-skating.

He smiled sheepishly at Zach as he skated beside her, "There's one thing I haven't quite mastered yet..."

Sayo

Sayo nodded and continued to lead Amy to her house. After another few minutes of walking, they finally arrived. Sayo walked Amy to the front door and let go of Amy's hand.

"Sorry about all this. I'm just glad you didn't get hurt." Sayo apologized.

Amy nodded and gave Sayo a hug.

"See you tomorrow," she said then she slid inside.

She headed up to Zach's room and her weak demeanor slipped and she sighed.

"Interimo come here."

(Interimo is Amy's name for the killer. It means slay, kill and stuff like that in latin.)

Killer

"Ah." the Killer said as he appeared beside Amy. "You finally remember, don't you, Mistress?"

Amy turned to the Killer and smirked at him and she giggled.

"Of course I did. And look at you. You're like a dog, coming when it's master calls it," she said turning to him. "Maybe we should get you a collar?"

Amy shook her head. "But I have a reason for calling you. Sending me off a cliff was not necessary. What if something happened?"
-----------
"Oh and what is that?" Zach asked, skating a circle around Orion slowly.

"I never learned the brakes," he told her with a laugh as his speed increased, "I usually run into the wall to stop."

"Orion," Zach cried, following him as best she could. "Don't crash into something!" She didn't want her boyfriend to get hurt, but she was sure that if Orion crashed into something she was going to run right into him before stopping as well.

Killer

"Worry not, Mistress. I wouldn't have done something that would have actually killed you. If necessary, I would have rescued you." the Killer replied.
