"My friend Kit is coming," Joe says into the phone when I'm getting ready for my competition today.
"Is that the one you filmed Heartstopper with?" I ask, "Yeah he played Nick," he replies. Suddenly the locker door opens and in walks my coach and choreographer.
"Are you almost ready?" My coach Marie asks, I nod and say goodbye to Joe, he wishes me good luck and we hang up.
"And the next person up is Athena Adams with her free program!" The announcer states my name, Out of habit, I immediately search for Joe's familiar face in the crowd, squinting due to the bright lights.
I lock eyes with him and immediately soften, already feeling the nerves loosen. And I jump on the ice and do my rituals.
My body automatically responds to my short program music and I start doing my routine.
The music stops, and I'm in my ending position. I hit all of my jumps, and elements, so I'm happy. I skate over to my coach, and she hugs me, while telling me how good I did.
We go over to where we read the scores, and I got 175.75, putting me in first place. My coaches hug me.
I look up at Joe and motion for the locker room, he nods and talks to his friend. We meet by the locker room and as soon as I see Joe, I run to him and he catches me laughing.
"I HIT ALL OF THEM JOE, ALL OF THEM CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT!" I shout at his face, he laughs "I know I saw that, you did really good Athena," he says, letting go of me.
I look over to his friend who is giving me a small smile. "Oh yeah, Athena, this is Kit, and Kit, this is Athena we grew up together." He says gesturing to me.
"Hello," I tell Kit, holding my hand out to Kit to shake. He grabs my hand and shakes it. "Hello, I don't know anything about figure skating, but I'm guessing you did well," He looks at me sheepishly.
"That's fine, considering Joe doesn't know anything about it either," I tell him Joe scoffs, causing us to laugh.
"Did your parents come?" Joe asks. I have a complicated relationship with them, both of my parents are verbally abusive and I moved out when I was 16, but then again they're my parents and I love them.
"I asked them to, but they didn't want to see me waste away my life with pointless dreams," I say shrugging my shoulders.
Joe looks at me sadly and hugs me, and I head back into he locker room to get changed.
"Yup, I will see you there, good luck on your free," he yells after me.
