Only Fate

Delilah Pov

School finished and it was ok I guess. I ate lunch on a corner and classes weren't that hard. I was thinking about him all the time. Everything I saw brought me back when I was with him. Little Delilah, you don't know what's coming. I wish I could say that to her.

I feel numb to emotions, so I do the only thing that uplifts my mood, skating. I get to the dorm; luckily, Logan isn't there so I peacefully change my clothes to some black leggings and a black sport bra adding a black long sleeve on top.

When I was searching for my classes, I made sure to spot the skating rink. I take my skates with a water bottle and start walking towards the rink.

The rink was opened, so I just slipped in, and sat down before putting on my skates and getting into the rink. Immediately I feel a relief in every single bone of my body as I slide through.

I did some laps warming up and started turning, testing the ice. I then skate to get impulse and start by doing a waltz jump which then turned into a flip jump, a toe loop then a lutz and then finally, an axel.

I could travel endlessly through this oval all my life and I would never get bored.

After I feel comfortable doing those I start adding doubles. I did a double salchow, then I felt ready to do the double axel.

I go take the impulse and jump doing an x with my arms on my chest. I land it perfectly and I felt like I could breathe magic

"She's graceful," I hear someone come in and say

"What?" I say and Emory walks in

"Nothing you skate amazing, I see why you were selected to the program," she says sitting in one of the chairs and I skate to the wall

"Who were you talking to?" I ask her and she stops tying her boot.

"Hm," she says, while looking back at the entrance

"Oh, no one," she says before taking off the plastic blade protection and getting into the rink

"Okay," I say before getting back to skating

We skate alongside quietly, and none of us bothered each other. After a while I got tired so I decided to go shower before dinner. I run to my dorm and make a backpack of everything I'm going to need. I walk to the girls dorm building and shower. That's when I receive a text from Emory.

                                                           Emory

Hi Delilah it's Emory
You can get ready for dinner
in my dorm
I won't be there in a while and
my roommate has cheer practice

Thank you Em

I was eternally grateful for that message so I took a shower and then put on some gray sweatpants and a vintage nike crewneck I thrifted back home. I pair it with some sneakers and start to make my way to the dinning hall.

I arrived and they were already serving, so I got in line.

"Do you know what they're serving," I ask her she had beautiful blonde hair and different colored eyes, one hazel and one blue

"I think is some kind of stake," she says and I nod

"You have pretty eyes," I say and she blushes

"Thank you, so do you," she says and as we move in the line we continue talking

"Are you new here," I ask her

"Yeah, you," she asks taking a tray and utensils after me

"Me too, it's scary how big this place is," I say and she smiles
