(no subject)
Characters: Rain (notpissedoff) and Bell (grab_my_bells)
Date/Time: Sunday Jan. 2, afternoon
Location: Serenity to start, then wherever they happen to wander.
Rating: PG? Maybe PG-13 seeing as it's Bell.
Summary: Rain seems to have somehow won Bell in the auction. A 'date' is in order.
------
So he had a date. The word was distasteful, even being spoken only in his mind. He had a date with someone he didn't know and who he most certainly hadn't bid on.
That he'd been entered into the auction in the first place had bothered Rain, but he'd said nothing at the time, hardly expecting anyone to bid on him anyway. And while it turned out he had been bid on, Rauxes was a tolerable presence (aside from her insistence on calling him master), so he wasn't too upset about that. No, what really angered him was that someone had had the nerve to impersonate him in the bidding. Whether they thought they were doing him a favour, or they simply thought it was a good joke - that didn't matter in the least to Rain. No one had the right to stick their nose into his affairs like that, and if he ever found out who it was, they could expect to be hit.
But Bell hadn't taken no for an answer, and going on a walk with the man was almost certainly preferable to his suggestion of bringing another smelly, slobbering dog into Rain's room. One of those was more than enough. Said dog was currently bounding around in the snow just outside the front entrance of the Spa, digging in the drifts and chewing on whatever he happened to find buried in them, as Rain leaned against the side of the building and watched with minimal interest. He hadn't given Bell a specific time to show up, but he had no clients booked this afternoon, so he had nothing but time to kill. He flipped idly through his journal to keep himself occupied while he waited, glancing up every so often to make sure Taichou didn't run off.
