It's a clear somewhat chilly day in the city of pleasure known as Bon Bon, the market district is a little calmer than usual since not as many furs ventured out today choosing to stay inside where it's warm.

Slowly a raccoon wearing a light jacket over her dress holding a small box in her hands walks carefully through the crowd trying her best not to run into anyone heads for the nearest route away from the crowd.

A young fox wandered through the crowd trying not get trampled. She was out today wandering about, since there was not much to do at home. Not paying attention she walked right into the path of a raccoon.

Jessica had been looking at a shop window that had caught her eye and didn't look back in time to stop and ran into the fox groaning as she fell backwards and landed with a dull thud on her butt, the box falling and spilling some of the chocolates inside on the ground.

Reina fell on her rear. "Oof... Oops, I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention." She noticed the spilled box on the ground. "Oh no. I ruined your chocolates..."

Jessica blinked a few times to get her bearings after the sudden impact with the fur and shortly after the ground, "Huh?" she asked hearing the female voice mention her chocolates and looked down and eyed the pieces slowly.

Reina quickly stood up and went to help the young raccoon up. Reina extended her hand to help her up.

Jessica looked from the choclates to the woman's hand, "Oh thank you." she says politely taking it and standing up slowly.

"I'm so sorry about that! I should've been paying attention..." Reina reached down to pick the box up. "I'm so so sorry..." she repeated.

Jessica had taken a moment to wipe the dust from the back of her dress then put her hand on the fox's shoulder, "It's okay, I was distracted too, you don't have to do that." she said quickly.

Reina stood up and looked at the raccoon with the box in hand. "But it just wouldn't be right to not help. Here," she said handing the box back. Reina looked the chocolates on the ground. "I'm sorry about the ones on the ground."

Jessica accepted the box and looked at them then back at the stranger, "It's okay, they are just sweets," she says trying to let her know that they weren't that important, "they can always be replaced, but I didn't hurt you did I?"

"No, no, I'm ok." Reina's expression changed from worry to relaxed. "What about you? Are you ok?" she asked dusting the rear of her dress off.

Jessica nodded her head in response, "Yes I am fine," she replies before offering her hand to the stranger, "Oh by the way, my name is Jessica." she says with a smile.

Reina smiled and took her hand. "I'm Reina. Nice to meet you, even under the, uh... circumstances."

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 26 Mar 2011 Posts: 2709

Jessica blushed a little as they shook hands, "It's not that unusual for me to meet furs like this," she says sheepishly, "I tend to be... rather clumsy."

Reina Storm · Rank: Senior Member Joined: 14 Sep 2012 Posts: 340

"You aren't the only one, deary," Reina giggled. "It is quite out of the ordinary."

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 26 Mar 2011 Posts: 2709

Jessica tilted her head to the side a little, "You mean two clumsy ladies bumping into each other?" she asks before giggling a little herself.

Reina Storm · Rank: Senior Member Joined: 14 Sep 2012 Posts: 340

"It would seem so!" Reina smiled at the raccoon. "So where were you heading with your box?" she asked.

Jessica used her nose to point towards the exit of the market area, "I was going to go find a shadey place to sit," she replied before smiling and looking back at Reina, "would you like to join me?"

Reina Storm · Rank: Senior Member Joined: 14 Sep 2012 Posts: 340

"I would love to! I have nothing better to do today," she said. The two started walking towards the area Jessica pointed out.

"Well then it's a good start of a plan right?" Jessica asked as they walked since it was all she had planned since she finished at the market.

Reina Storm · Rank: Senior Member Joined: 14 Sep 2012 Posts: 340

"Yup!" Reina smiled. She did not expect to make a new friend today.

"So what kind of sweets are those?"

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 26 Mar 2011 Posts: 2709

Jessica giggled and tapped the top of the box, "They are praline cream chocolates." she says as they neared some benches underneath a tree.

Reina Storm · Rank: Senior Member Joined: 14 Sep 2012 Posts: 340

"Praline Cream? Never heard of those." They reached the bench and sat down.

Jessica grinned as she looked at Reina as they relaxed on the bench, "They are simply amazing, here try one." she says offering the box to the fox.

Reina Storm · Rank: Senior Member Joined: 14 Sep 2012 Posts: 340

Reina opened the box and took one out, then handed the box back. "It's worth a try," she said eating the sweet. The flavor of the candy made Reina smile. "Wow, these really are good!"

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 26 Mar 2011 Posts: 2709

Jessica giggled as she reached in and pulled one out, "See I told you." she says playfully before popping it into her mouth and chewing it slowly.

Reina Storm · Rank: Senior Member Joined: 14 Sep 2012 Posts: 340

Reina smiled deeply from the sweet. "Wow, just... Wow. I don't know what to say. Those are amazing!"

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 26 Mar 2011 Posts: 2709

Jessica giggled at Reina's reaction to the chocolates and held the box out, "Well have another!" she told her new friend.

Reina Storm · Rank: Senior Member Joined: 14 Sep 2012 Posts: 340

Reina took another and ate it. She smiled at Jessica. "Who new today would turn to a sweet day."
