Timo Meier x Fem!oc

ICE SKATING

Celine's POV:
I had been dating Timo Meier for a few months now, and I had a secret, a very bad secret: I didn't know how to skate. In the beginning, it never came up and the longer the two of us were together...well, i just couldn't tell him that i couldn't skate because how could i date a professional hockey player and not even be able to skate?
But, the thing about secrets is that they can only be kept for so long...Timo discovered my secret when one Wednesday night. The Sharks had a home game, which was nice because it meant more time with Timo. The both of us were having dinner at my place. "We're having a community skate Sunday morning." Timo said, casually as he sipped on his wine. I forced a smile. "That's nice! I'm sure the kids will love that." Timo nodded. "Ich nehme an, Sie kommen mit?A lot of the boys take their wives and girlfriends and kids to the community skates." I smiled and nodded. "You know, I just don't know if I should?" Timo frowned. "Why?" "Um..." I paused, quickly trying to come up with an explanation. "I..." Timo furrowed his brows as he looked at me for a moment because his lips twitched upwards a bit. "You do know how to skate, don't you?" My eyes widened in panic and Timo burst out laughing. "That's hilarious. I'm sorry, but wow. Why didn't you tell me?"
I sighed and put my head in my hands. "Because you're a hockey player! And a fucking good one! How am I supposed to look you in the eye and tell you that I don't know how to skate?" Timo's laugh faded and he put his hand on my arm. "Like this: "Timo, I don't know how to skate. Can you teach me?"" I raised my head out of my hand to look at him. "You would teach me?" Timo gave me an offend expression. "Of course I would." I smiled and took his hand into mine. Timo smiled back and pressed a kiss on my hand. "Now, do you have skates?" And i didn't.

TIME SKIP

No one's POV:
So, the next day after morning practice, Timo took Celine out to buy skates (and knee and elbow pads, and a helmet, and gloves, and a stick). He went overboard to say the least, but it was cute. Then, he packed his skates and Celine's skates into a bag with the pads and grabbed the sticks and a few pucks for their trip to the SAP Center. "You know, you're supposed to be teaching me to skate, not going to practice, right?" Celine had told him when she saw what he was packing. Timo shrugged. "Ich dachte nur, du würdest es schnell rauskriegen und dann,maybe you'd want to try some hockey with a "fucking good hockey player" as you said yesterday." She shoved him and he laughed. At the arena, Timo dropped the bag on the bench and helped Celine put on her skates before putting on his own. He had insisted that she wear all the padding but she glared at him. "I'm not a child, I can handle it. And, plus, I'm not going to fall, right? Du wirst mich fangen?" She said, only lightly threatening her boyfriend. Timo smiled. "Of course I'll catch you." Timo went on the ice first and held his hand out to her, which she took, keeping her other hand on the boards and stepped out onto the ice. Celine slipped immediately and she quickly let go of Timo's hand to hold the boards with both hands. Timo bit his lip to stop from laughing. "Do I have to learn?!" She shouted, wanting to get off the ice. Timo skated to Celine's other side so she could see him and put his hand on her lower back. "Komm schon, Baby.  Nimm meine Hand und lass die Bretter los."

Celine's POV:
I shook my head. "No. I'm good right here." I shifted my feet to try to get off the ice and slipped. I would have hit the ice, but Timo caught me and pulled me back up to my feet, his arms wrapped tightly around me so i wouldn't fall. I gripped his shirt with white knuckles "baby..." He whispered. "That's why I didn't tell you!" I slightly yelled back. I heard Timo chuckled a bit. "It's scary to try anything for the first time. But it's okay, I understand. You're not going to fall." I nodded my head, but still didn't move. "How about I loosen my grip and skate back? "Beweg deine Füße nicht oder so, lass mich einfach mich bewegen, damit du dich an das Gefühl gewöhnst?" Timo suggested and i nodded. Timo loosened his grip on me and reached down to my hand to support his arms and began to slowly skate backwards. He took me across the ice a few times until i started laughing. Timo smiled at me. "Now try moving your feet like mine and skate with me?" He said to me  as he continued to skate backwards.
I did as he said and we slowly skated together. In the end i was able to let go of Timo and skate next to him.  "Okay, now we should make some stops." Timo said and my smile fell.
"Do I have to? Muss ich wirklich?" Learning to stop meant not stopping, which meant falling or hitting the boards or both. Timo smiled at me, and nodded, and i sighed.
"Stopping is easy, okay? You just turn like this and stop." Timo said as he demonstrated.
"Stopping is easy," says the NHL player." I mocked. Timo didn't have time to respond because we were both interrupted.  "Looks like I wasn't the only one looking for some ice time, huh?" A voice said. I  yelped in surprise and fell backwards on my ass. Timo rushed over to me and helped me up, holding me close to his chest, turning Erik.  "Förlåt!  Jag menade inte att skrämma dig." Erik responded, holding up his hands in surrender. "It's kind of funny that my sister your girlfriend can't skate." He continued laughing. "Are the sticks on the bench still?" I asked Timo as i turned around to glare at Erik . Timo furrowed his brows but nodded. "Yeah?"
"And remind me how long is a slashing penalty?" "Two minutes?" Timo answered, still confused. I nodded and let go of Timo to skate over to Erik.
"Oh shit. Celine, no!" Timo laughed and skated after me. "gå ifrån mig din lilla tönt" " nej din jävel, jag ska slå skiten ur dig!"
