Skate!

I've been injured, carry me!

After two days of practicing, Dream was finally able to go up and down the ramp without falling, he was also able to go faster than he was when he first started. He wasn't sure that he was ready to go to the skatepark, but he was going to go just because he could. Who would give up the opportunity?

He arrived outside the skatepark and sat on the bench. He wasn't confident enough to ride his skates to places so he would have to wait until he got inside the room to put them on. George showed up minutes later, skating up to Dream. Dream smiled upon seeing George's smile. Once he reached Dream he slid into the seat beside him.

"That was smooth." George said shocked. Dream laughed and hit George on the back. George got pushed farther than Dream expected and almost fell off. George glared at him.

"Sorry about that. I guess I'm just too big for you're small body to take." Dream said.

George smiled, "oh look at me, I'm Dream and I can't skate five minutes without holding someone's hand." George mocked him while holding his finger and his thumb in the shape of an "L" on his forehead.

"Oh come on, you can't skate on a skateboard." Dream said, making George lower his hand.

"I bet I could ride a skateboard better than you can ride skates." George said. Dream smirked, leaning closer to George.

"Are you sure about that, Georgie?" He knew that George was just joking, he wouldn't be able to do it. But George made it so that they were even closer, "try me, Dreamie."

Dream wasn't expecting his energy to be thrown back at him. He backed away, laughing to cover up the act.

"You wanna bet on it?" Dream asked and George leaned back as well.

"What are we betting?" George asked. Dream thought for a second, he actually didn't think that he would get this far.

"If I win, you have to do whatever I want for a week." Dream decided.

"And if I win, you get to do whatever I want for a week?" George asked.

"Yeah, but we need like a safe word." George said. Dream thought about it.

"Okay, mine will be Patches." George looked into the sky in thought.

"Mine will be goggles." George replied. "So, we have a deal?" Dream said, holding out his hand. George took it and gave it a shake.

"Deal."

George was skating around with Dream, trying to gradually progress his speed when Techno beckoned for George to approach him. George and Dream skated towards Techno.

"Have you ever played a game called 'B.L.A.D.E,' George?" Techno asked. George shook his head.

"Well, the rules are basically the same as a game of H.O.R.S.E, only we're rollerblading." Dream's head perked up at Techno's words.

"Oh, like S.K.A.T.E!" Dream said and Techno nodded in acknowledgement.

"Anyways, would you like to try it out? Niki said she would help Dream for you." Techno said. George thought about it. He didn't want to burden Niki but then again, Niki probably would love nothing more than to help Dream. And Techno probably really wanted him to try it.

He smiled, "of course I would!" George decided and he saw Techno's face flash in excitement, before he went back to his serious look.

"Well, let's flip a coin."

Techno hasn't failed a single one of his moves yet. The coin landed in his favor and he has gone through ten tricks. Maybe he should have chosen for them to switch starters every round.
