As me and Charlie skated round a corner, lots of screaming and shouting was heard.
In the distance I could see around 10 children all in tatty hockey gear and bright colours.

"Guys! Guys! I've got someone I want you to meet" charlie shouted at his friends while attempting to skate towards them.

Before I know it I got thrown onto the floor by averman, who tripped and went flying across the ice. I shrieked in pain as soon as my body hit the ice.

"Arabella are you okay?!" I heard Connie and Charlie shout as they came rushing to help me up
" I am so sorry, I tripped, I swear I didn't mean to hurt you" averman hurriedly rushed out
I giggled and tried to assure everyone that I was ok.
"Guys I'm fine, I just didn't expect it"

During our hockey session I ended up meeting the hall brothers, and like 2 other boys whose names I'd already forgotten .

"Guys, it's getting quite late, I really should be heading home before my parents worry" i told everyone, upset that I had to leave.
"I can walk you home if you'd like?" Charlie asked, not wanting me walking home alone this late
"No it's ok Charlie, it's not too far away" I smiled and said good bye to everyone, before walking off.

I was only round the corner from my house when I accidentally bumped into someone and went flying on to the floor yet again.

" I am so sorry, I wasn't looking were I was going" I heard a young boy say from above me

As I looked up from the floor I caught eyes with a very cute boy. He had dirty blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes. I didn't realise how long I had been staring at him, when my trance was cut by the sound of his voice.

"Um are you ok? Do you need help up?"
"Oh sorry! I was in a world of my own" I replied sheepishly, getting up from the floor.
"Hey I like your accent, where are you from?" The unknown boy smiled at me.
"Im from England, I've just moved here" I smiled back politely, my cheeks turning pink.
"What made you move here?" He questioned me as if Minnesota was a bad place to move to
"My dad got a new job here, do you not like Minnesota?" I asked curiously
"No I do, there's just better places to move to" he quickly explained as if I'd be offended
"Well I must be off, it was nice to meet you ..." I waited for him to tell me his name
"Oh I'm Adam" he blushed
" well it was lovely to meet you Adam" I smiled
"And you ..." he waited for my reply
"Arabella"
" it was nice to meet you Bella" he smiled and winked before walking off
Carrying on with my walk home I couldn't help but keep thinking and blushing about the nickname he had given me, not to talk about the wink!

As I say in my bed reading a hockey book, I couldn't help but let my mind drift off into thoughts about this random Adam boy I had met on my way home. He was super cute and slightly taller than me which ticked off a lot of boxes. He looked around my age and his eyes were gorgeous, I couldn't help myself from staring into the sapphire orbs the whole conversation.

I had been so invested in my day dreaming about Adam that I hadn't realised the sleep that was slowly taking over me.
