Name's POV

"so tell me again, why are we at the skate rink?" you stand beside your best friend of three years.

"because," she said, flipping her short hair dramatically. "we need to meet new people. and this place is great for meeting actually nice people."

Chiho turns her bright blue eyes to you and grabs your arm.

"imagine if we meet a special someone!" she practically squeals as she drags you inside.

you roll your eyes as you let yourself get dragged into the building.

walking up to the front desk Chiho leans across and asks for the correct size skates, flirting with the worker just a bit.

you were standing back behind her as this was going on, just watching the other people in the rink.

the place was lit up by stage lights with different shapes and colors of light beaming around the room. it reeked of stale fries and spilled soda. but it also had the pleasant musk of arcade tickets and shoe cleaner.

off to the right was a small kitchen and dining area for parents to sit and watch or for hungry teens to get a bite to eat. across the room, past the rink itself, was a small arcade room full of vintage and newer games alike. you preferred to skip the skating and just play street fighter or Pac-man, but this time Chiho was going to do everything in her power to get you to have at least one main character moment before you left.

as you begin to take your first step toward your beloved arcade Chiho turns around.

"and where do you think you're going mx?" she asks sassily with her hands on her hips.

you look at her with wide eyes. "the arcade?" you question.

"absolutely not," she tosses you a pair of skates, somehow getting the perfect size for you. "we're going to have fun and skate around."

"uuuuuggggghhhhhhh," you groan as you begrudgingly trudge over to a table by the rink.

pulling off your beautiful shoes that you love so much you place them in one of the cubbies located by the rinks entrance.

as you finish lacing up your skates you take notice of how Chiho has been staring at a specific area of the rink. before you get the chance to ask what's going on she grabs your hands and pulls you up.

"now, lets impress everyone with our amazing skating skills," she states pushing you infront of her.

"just because we are figure skaters does not mean we are automatically good at roller skating. the two are actually very different," you speak matter-of-factly. not noticing how as you were speaking she had been completing all sorts of tricks across the rink.

"lies," is all she says as you finally take note of how she has just completed a dramatic turn leap.

you sigh as you roll yourself over to a wall and lean against it.
