Ice, Love and Everything in between

Chapter 3

NEXT MORNING

It's only 7.05 but I'm already in the cafeteria, sitting at a table with a coffe in my hand

I couldn't sleep last night, my mind was going through all the possibilities wherever I should attend the competition or not

Finding a good partner is hard and I thought it would take longer to find one but since Nathan offered to be my partner I'm one step closer to accomplishing my dreams

However there is one problem, I don't even know the guy. How can we both connect to each other in order to put on a good performance in such short period of time

And if I accept his offer I'd have to tutor him, which means I have to spent even more time with him

This is way too much to process overnight and it's not like this coffe is going to be any help

I don't particularly like coffe but this is the only thing right now that will help me get through the day

I quickly glanced at the clock on the wall, 7.20

I still have time until the class and Kate is probably still sleeping

she always comes to class last minute

I was debating what to do for the next few minutes when my phone lit up with a new notification appearing on the screen

It was another text message from Nathan

UNKOWN: "so did you decide?"

IN CLASS

I sat down at my usual spot, turning my head around and not spotting Kate anywhere

The class already started and after 10minutes there was still no sign of her so I decided to text her

ME: "Kate where are you? the class already started"

After a few second she replied

KATE: "don't be mad, but I decided to skip so I could go watch Isaac's practice"

I let out a silent groan

She's already ditching me for some hockey guy. I looked at the time, 30 minutes left. I decided to pay attention this once since I got nothing better to do.

The professor was talking about World War II. as I started writing my notes down, my pen quickly ran out

I started searching through my bag for a spare one

"great, I only packed one pen" so much about paying attention and making decent notes for once

"psst" I heard someone say behind me, I turned around meeting a pair of blue eyes

"here" he said giving me a pen

"oh thank you" I said as I gave him a qucik smile, I turned around and went back in my little bubble, patiently listening to the teacher and organising my notes

AFTER CLASS

Class ended and I packed everything in my bag and was about to head out when I remembered about the borrowed the pen
