ooc; *For Hakukun and Hitomi only please!*
bic; His footsteps slowed as a nice seat on the rather uncomfortable curb was noticed by stunning golden eyes. The young man steered himself smoothly between the crowds of passerbys and leaned down, his behind against the cold cement. Sighing to himself, the boy rested his chin on his palm while his other arm lay across his lap. Watching the people go pass, his eyes followed their footsteps and every once and a while he glanced up, trying to find a friendly face.
Having little success, Katsuo sat for a long time, his mind drifting to pleasent daydreams and joyful memories. Almost losing himself, the boy twitched and came back to reality sooner than he was hoping for when somebody accidently stepped in a puddle, splashing his toes. Grimacing at the unfortunate event, the male ninja simply shook his sandal and ignored his dirty feet.
Astonished at how inconsiderate people could be, Katsuo watched as the offender glanced at him and walked passed like he didn't matter. Not used to this kind of abuse, the boy scowled and edged his legs closer to the curb, then continued his line of drifting off, sighing slightly as he did so. Life could be so... boring.

Hitomi walked along the packed streets of Konoha. She usually wasn't in the crowds, but she had been pulled in by the never ending current of people.
"There's nothing to do..." She sighed, putting her hands behind her head. She looked around, watching all the strangers. She loved to people watch. She looked over, and saw a boy sitting on the curb. He seemed lost in thought.
'It looks like he's day dreaming.' She thought. Suddenly, She felt her foot catch something. Before she had time to act, she tripped, falling face first into the ground.

Masato yawned. "There is nothing to do." He looked around and attempted to run out of the crowded streets only to accidentally run into a kid who appeared to be daydream. "Oh I am so sorry." Masato brushed himself off.

Immediately the boy's muscles froze as two intruders invaded his daydreaming. First he watched as a girl fell on her face, then he was bumped by another male. He smiled warmly at the boy and nodded, "no trouble, I ought to thank you for waking me to my senses," laughing slightly, Katsou stood and after making sure the other boy was alright, turned to the girl, "excuse me a moment," he quickly said to the boy and briskly approached the female.
"Are you alright?" he asked kindly, reaching out a strong hand to aid her in standing up again. His face beamed with an outgoing nature and good intentions filled his mind. It was rather obvious Katsuo was in a surprisingly good mood today, and he figured he could make a good pair of friends today while he was at it. The young man was rather lonely himself and needed the company.

Hitomi rolled over onto her side to see that the boy who was day dreaming had come to help her. She took his outstretched hand as he helped her up.
"I'm fine, thank you." Hitomi said. She brushed the dirt off her clothes, then went to brush the dirt from her face. When she wiped her cheek, her hand felt wet. She pulled it into her eye view to see there was blood on her hand.
"Darnit!" She muttered to herself. "I'm so clumsy!"

Masato also walked over to the girl and looked at her hand. He was no med ninja but he did carry around a small medical kit for some wounds like these. "Here let me help." He grabbed the girls hand, and bandaged it so the wound could start it's healing process faster. "There you go." He smiled a little.

Side-glancing at Masato, Katsuo then shifted his gaze to her bandaged hand and tried on a grin. She'd be okay, he wasn't worried about that. Sighing once more he cleared his throat and held his hands behind his back, slightly self conscious. He silently cursed himself for being shy all of a sudden, then stared at both ninja, "I'm Katsuo, what are your names?" he finally asked, voice struggling to sound confident.
He always seemed to have trouble with introductions for an unfounded reason, and only wished he could be more comfortable with formal questions. Trying to make his grin more friendly, the boy showed off his clean teeth, eyes sparkling as well.

"I'm Hitomi." She replied, smiling sweetly and shaking his hand. She looked down at her hand, then at the boy who bandaged it.
"Thank you very much." She said. "I'm such a klutz! I really should carry a medical pack around with me." She grinned and scratched the back of her head.

"My name is Masato." He looked at Katsuo. "Don't worry about being nervous," He could tell by his voice that he was. "I know what that is like." He looked back at Hitomi. "It is a good idea I am normally from Sunagakura," He pointed to his headband under the leaf village one. "We had to carry around the pack so we could cover our wounds to protect them from the sand particals, so it's become a habit even here." He was suprised that he had just said so much, normal he would be nervous and looking at his feet by now.

Katsuo grinned at her kind reply and continued smiling as she shook his hand, this was much easier than what he usual encountered. The ninja these seemed a lot more friendly than he was used to, it was a nice break from the cold-hearted brutes walking around. The young man listened carefully to Masato, eyes still holding the same sparkle. As he finished up, the ninja beamed.
"Nice to meet you, Hitomi-chan, Masato-kun," as he said each name he bowed slightly to each, then rose himself and flicked the hair out of his eyes.
"So you're from Sunagakure? I've been there only for missions, but I didn't quite enjoy myself because of the heat, I prefer the temperature in Konoha," he spoke the truth and coughed slightly, bringing a fist to his mouth politely. Although it was normally warm in Konoha he much prefered cooler temperatures because he seemed to get hot quite often.

"You don't have to be so formal." Hitomi said, giggling a little bit. "You don't have to bow. I'm flattered, but it's not necessary." She looked back at Masato.
"So you're from Sunagakura? That's cool. I haven't been there yet, but I've always wanted to go." She glanced down at the ground, then smiled back up at them.

"It's not really that great of a place...I only left because..." Masato looked at the ground and stopped talking "Well it doesn't really matter why I left." He felt tear sting his eyes alittle and tried to whip them away without them noticing. "So anyway...is there anything you want to do?"

Stopping himself, Katsuo blushed furiously but turned his gaze to his feet to hide his embarrassment. Apparently what he had learned was wrong, and apparently these ninja didn't like formal. His eyes then drifted to Masato, talking about Sunagakure seemed to upset him, raising a brow Katsuo simply stared with sympathy on his features.
"If you don't want to talk about it, don't," he said in a warm voice, smiling before taking a few steps back.
"I'm sorta tired," he was half lying, part of him wanted to stop talking so he didn't continue making a fool of himself, and the rest of him was pretty sleepy from a day filled with training and exhaustion. Scratching the back of his head, Katsuo suddenly looked sheepish.

"Me too." Hitomi said, stretching her arms and yawning. She actually was very tired. She had been walking all day. Now was the only time she'd stopped. "Falling and making an idiot of youself really takes it out of ya." She grinned widely.
