I can't keep the guilt from growing in my heart. These people have shown me nothing but kindness and care. But here I am... being nothing but a horrible traitor.

-Training In The Snow-

Y/N P.O.V

We decided to train to build up our strength. This time I join in. Fubuki chases after Kazemaru. As I try to block him from stealing the ball. "Be the wind..." he said, with a soft voice. He successfully brush past us both as he steals the ball. My eyes widen at what he said. He tells us to follow him as he leads the way.

Which leads us to a snowboarding circuit. I watch as he shows us his snowboarding skill, making everyone eyes lit up in amazement. He's really skilled in this. But I'm not surprised. He's nicknamed the prince of snow. This should be nothing for him.

I turn my head to see Endou who looks eager to give it a try. "Please teach me!" He said. He tilts his body a little to the right, only to slide down. "Please stop me!" He yelled out, while flailing his arms. I jump over the edge and slides over to him. I grab his arm and gently guide him to a safer spot.

"Wow... you're really good at this!" He said, making me smile softly at him. "Teach me!" He said. I blink my eyes at his request.

"Uh... shouldn't you be asking Fubuki to teach you? He is the prince of snow for a reason..." I said. He hums at what I said and lightly nod his head. He looks a little disappointed by this. "Sorry, Endou. I'm just not good at teaching when it comes to things other than soccer..." I said.

"Oh it's fine..." he said. I smile softly at him. I turn my head to look at the distance. My eyes landed on a frozen lake. My eyes lit up as I rush towards it. I asked if any of them have a pair of ice skating shoes. In which they lend a pair to me.

"You know how to ice skate?" Ichinose asked, staring at me as I put on the skating shoes. I turn to look at him and grin. I slowly stand up.

"You'll see..." I said, winking at him. His cheeks flushed red at my action. I let out a soft giggle, and slowly glide across the frozen lake. I turn my head to see everyone is gathering, giving me an audience.

I glide forward, gaining some speed. I jump and did a few spin before landing gracefully on the ground.

I stop in front of them and smiles

I stop in front of them and smiles. Their eyes widen and jaw dropped at what I just did.

"That was... awesome!!!" Endou yelled out. Everyone cheers at me as they clap their hands. I lift my hand and bow at them. "Please teach me!!" He yelled. My eyes widen when he's about to step on the frozen lake.

"Ah, stop!! It's-" I exclaimed. But Endou had stepped on the frozen lake, sending him falling down. "Slippery..." I finished the sentence, winching a little as he land hard on the ground. I let out a sigh and glide to him. I lean over him as he lays on the cold frozen lake.

"You can be such an idiot sometimes, Endou. You should have known better than to walk on a frozen lake" I said. He just let out a nervous laugh. I let out a sigh and offer my hand to him. He grabs my hand, allowing me to pull him back to his feet. I sure to hold him to make sure he didn't ended up slipping again.

"L/N" I hear someone called out. I turn my head to see it's Fubuki. "Wanna try doing a trick with me?" He said, offering his hand to me. I blink my eyes in surprise. A soft smile starts to form on my lips. I glide over to him, placing my hand on his. He whispers to me what he wants us to try. I smile and nod my head.

We glide away from each other. He nods his head to me, making me smile. We start to glide towards each other. He lift his hands, allowing me to grab them. I slide down and jump, landing on his shoulder. I turn my body and let it relax on his shoulder.

After gliding for a moment, he gently lowered me down as we eventually come to a stop

After gliding for a moment, he gently lowered me down as we eventually come to a stop.

"That was amazing... you're really skilled" he said. His hands are still holding mine as he smiles softly at me. He turn his head to look at the others. "Ice skating is not just good to feel the wind around you. It's also good to help you maintain good balance that would be useful during a soccer match. A figure skating trick done by a pair is good to create a bond between both sides" he said. His comment makes everyone eager to give it a try. My eyes widen at what he said. A good bond? Does that mean I'm starting to bond with him... with them?

I slowly remove my hands from his hold. He turn his head to look at me. "What's wrong, L/N? Did I say something wrong?" He asked. I lightly shake my head as I lower my head.

"I'm just a little tired. I'm going to rest for a while..." I said. I turn around without even bothering to listen to his reply. I just have to get out of this place as soon as possible. I can feel my heart aching in my chest. What he said told me that he trusts me. Which makes me feel bad because of my real purpose to be around them.

Fubuki P.O.V

I watch as L/N glides away to the edge. She takes off the skating shoes and stands up. I watch as she runs off. She didn't even say anything to us. I frown as I recall the sad look in her eyes. I even noticed tears gathering in them.

"Did something happen to her?" I asked, turning to look at the others. They turn to look at each other. "She looks so sad and... regretful" I said. They turn to the direction L/N head off to with a worried gaze.

Y/N P.O.V

I let my body drop on the snow on my knees once I'm far from the others. I let out a frustrated scream, while clutching onto my head. I can't believe this. I tried so hard to not let it get to me.

I've tried so hard to only focus on my sole purpose of joining them. To only be a spy to them. But in the end, my heart grows to care about them like they're all my friends.

"Why does it have to be so hard?! I just want to keep being able to play Soccer. Is that too much to ask???" I yelled at the sky. I let out another scream as I slam my hand on the snowy ground.

My hands become red from the cold as I continue to hit the ground with my fists. But I couldn't care less as my heart starts to ache painfully at the thought of what I have to do to the people that have been nothing but kind to me. My hands starts to get numb from the cold but I just keep punching the snowy ground.

My arms eventually grow tired. I let out another yell before moving to sit on my butt. I hug my knees closer to my chest as I continue to cry harder, not caring that my clothes got soaked from the snow.

"Why do I have to end up like this? W-Why... why?? WHY?!!! WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE ME?!!!" I yelled out, in frustration. I choke out a sob as I clutch my head tightly with my trembling. "Why me...?" I cried out.
