JP's POV
After gym I head home and chill I catch up with Mum Dad and younger brother Denny.
I sit in the front room and I must of looked spaced out I was thinking of Lena we had a connection we had so much in common and it seemed like the universe was pulling us together, school, café, the gym we just connected like we had known each other years rather then just three days!
"JP" I hear.
I look up it is my Mum calling me
"You ok there, you look like you have run away with the fairy's " she asks concerned.
"Sorry Mum yeah I'm good I'm heading to the rink later so I wont need dinner tonight" I say.
"Alright who you going with" She asks.
"Just the usual crowd" I reply.
I head in the garden with Denny he's a good kid just started year 7 in Marlsbourgh we have a kick about which always ends in a play fight Denny always trying to punch sevens bells of shit out of me....he never learns.
I head back indoors and get ready. I hit the shower and get ready putting on my black Adidas tracksuit and white huaraches douse myself in Paco I grab my bag and put on my baseball cap.
As I head out say goodbye to everyone my Mum catches by the front door.
"Just the usual crowd" she says raising an eyebrow.
I smile
"Yeah and I'm meeting a new girl that has joined out school" I say.
"And does the new girl have a name" she asks.
I laugh and roll my head back.
"Yes Mum her names Lena and we are just friends" I say.
"If you say so" she looks at me like mother knows best and continues
"Drive safely, stay out of trouble, love you"
"Love you to Mum" I reply
I head over to Lena's. I text her to say I'm leaving and that I'll be there in 20 minutes.
I hit the estate and she is already waiting outside Lloyds House one of the small blocks on the estate.
She smiles and walks over to the car she looks gorgeous black leggings, high top trainers, crop top but covered up a purple Nike hoodie. She has her long hair down and she looks so different, she is wearing make up not too much but she looks stunning.
"Hey" she says as she gets into the car.
I feel myself taking a breath in god she is gorgeous.
"Alright" I smile at her.
We head to the rink,we have the 16.30 – 18.30 slot, and we are meeting the lads there, Pablo's girlfriend Grace will be there and more then likely a few of her friends.
We get to the car park and I jump out the car and go to the boot and grab my bag
"Please don't tell me you got your own blades?" She asks.
"Yep and I'm going to be your personal instructor" he laughs as he locks the car door.
He links arms with me like he has done before like it's the most natural thing in the world.
"You'll be fine the lads are here and so is Grace. Grace is Pablo's girlfriend you'll like her but just ignore Vicky if she is there" he says giving me a bit of a low down.
"Why what's Vicky' s problem" I ask a bit unsure.
"She is the past Lena and she don't like it" he says.
We head into the rink and Tom is on the pay booth.
"Alright JP, how many of you?"
"Hello mate just the two us" I reply
"Go on straight through" Tom reply's.
I see Lena look a bit confused.
I link arms with her again.
"How comes we didn't need to pay" she asks.
"This is my place Lena, I used to work here in the school holidays for years, being a rink steward" I laugh.
She stops in her tracks.
"You really are good at skating".
She says looking up to me a bit worried and continues
"JP I've never been skating before I'm going spend most of the time on my arse" She laughs.
I don't know why I did it but I did, and she allowed it.
I put my hands round her tiny waist and pull her in close to me.
"Your gonna be fine, I'll take care of you, now come on lets get you some skates" I laugh pulling away from the contact.
We link arms again and walk to the back of the rink to meet the others....Vicky is there great, just fucking great I introduce her to Grace, Kaz and Vicky. Vicky who is already eyeing Lena up.
The lads get up and all say hello to Lena they can feel there is a bit of an atmosphere.
The others head on to the ice whilst we get our skates on.
I lead her on the ice, helping her with her balance and co-ordination, I face her and tell her to give me her hands, as I slowly skate backwards steading her to skate forwards she soon gets the hang of it. We go round the rink once like this and I pull us over to the corner of the rink, Lena with her back to the barrier and me standing right in front of her with my arms up against the barrier
"Ok" I smile at her.
She looks up at me connecting eye contact.
"Yeah, looks like I have the best instructor" she beams at me.
We stare at each other intensely I move my hands to her waist and move my head closer to hers.
"Is that so?" I reply.
"Yeah and he's proper fit" she says biting her bottom lip.
We both reach in at the same time, our lips about to connect when we get sprayed by ice breaking the connection, I turn round and its Vicky who has come to a stop.....I taught her that trick and I could kick myself.
"Really.....on the ice...fucks sake JP" Vicky says through gritted teeth giving Lena the filthiest look and speeds back off literally killing the moment.
I run my hands though my hair.
"Le...sorry about" I mutter.
"Come on teach me some more" She smiles at me.
We hold hands as we go round the rink a few more times she is getting the hang of it.
They do a 15 minute set for called "Speed Skaters" this is where everyone else has to get off the ice and only those with their own skates get to let rip on the ice.
I take Lena over to where Grace, Drew and Buddy are sitting, Pablo and Vicky are already on the ice. I hit the ice, there is not many people on the ice me and Pablo chasing each other at high speed, swerving in and out changing direction.
