The girl sat in the changing room as she was getting ready for her ice skating competition, she had been training with maude for the past few weeks on many jumps and turns. The duo had created a little routine for josephine to perform, it wasn't long but it was with lots of technique.
Lando had sent a selfie to the girl to show that he was there in the crowd, cheering her on. Maude couldn't make it that day as she was babysitting her niece, josephine didn't know why maude was babysitting her niece yet josephine didn't say anything about it.
Amelia, the girl she met in the paddock when charles introduced them to each other walked in the changing room. Josephine didn't even know she was a figure skater as that was something the girl had forgot to mention, josephine smiled at the girl only to get nothing back.
she wasn't sure why amelia reacted so cold towards her as nothing had happened between them since they met, josephine only shrugged it off as she stood up to start stretching. She let her leg travel upwards as she began to stretch, the sudden bump in her back made her fall forward.
for josephine's luck the girl had placed a hand against the wall before she stretched, she gasped as she looked behind her so she could see who the person was that had pushed her. "amelia?" josephine asked as she couldn't believe who had bumped into her, on purpose was what the little voice was saying.
But josephine couldn't get it out of her head that amelia would do something like that, her and amelia were friends. It wouldn't be very friendly if amelia wanted to injure the girl before the big show, amelia crossed her arms as she stayed standing in front of josephine.
"i heard you and charles broke up, but then i saw lando sitting in the crowd. tell me did you cheat on charles with lando?" amelia asked as she had the look on her face that josephine recognized to easily, the look that every girl who loved rumours in the paddock held. It was one of the reasons why the girl hated the paddock.
"what? no, i wouldn't cheat on someone." josephine spoke as she shook her head, unlike you was playing over and over in her head as she could've said it. josephine knew amelia cheated on Pierre with a male model, josephine knew as there was all proof over the internet.
The girl had felt for the male for months, she had dm'd the male yet the only thing he did was like the message. It was clear the male did not need her sympathy, she didn't need it from him. "right, well good luck on the ice. i heard it doesn't treat cheaters well." amelia said as she turned around as her ponytail almost smacked josephine in the face.
josephine wanted to speak up, she could have done it. Yet that would have just thrown her off the focus she had set for herself, she calmly breathed in and out as she tried to calm herself down. The sudden person calling her name for the ice made her look up, she took a deep breath before she stepped out of the changing room.

Josephine placed once again second in the competition, although she beat amelia who placed thirteenth it still felt horrible. Lando was there being the biggest supporter that he could be, he almost kept quiet the whole routine. He was the loudest when she routine was finished.
It made josephine smile as she rethought the moment, she liked him way more then she had imagined to like him. "there is my girl!" the girl could hear the male's voice through the center, she was waiting for him to pick her up which is why she was waiting there.
a big smile began to play on her face as she felt the male's big arms around her, he lifted he slightly of the ground as he hugged her. Josephine could tell that the male was extremely proud of her, even if she wasn't as happy with the second place.
