College For Stickmen

26 - Cold..

This is probably going to be split into several chapters to focus on ur fav ships <3 💞

(Also how would y'all feel if I made a Fantasy AU book inspired by Genshin LMAOO)

The car ride was pretty calming, other than the fact that Dark wouldn't stop playing hardcore rock but after a while, they made it.

"Okay, everyone out." Dark said. You see, the whole gang decided to meet at this ice skating rink Orange rented out for Purple's birthday. He officially turned 19.

As Dark, Chosen, Second, and Red got out the car, they saw Purple, Gold and Orange waiting by the bench. They soon walked over, Red and Second holding hands.

"Heyyy, Purple!" Second smiled. Purple smiled back.

"Greetings, Second." He then looked at Red. "Is this your boyfriend?"

"Yeah, this is Red."

"So awesome we finally get to meet!" Red groaned. "Green doesn't ever stop talking about you." Red smirked making Purple blush a little as Orange and Gold gave him a 😏 look.

Purple groaned at the two as another car pulled up. Soon, Yellow, Green and Blue got out the car. Green runs over to Purple as Purple stands up.

"Princess!" He smiled, picking up purple into a hug and spinning him around before the two shared a short kiss.

"Alright." Orange said. He then turned to the skating rink, as he took Gold's hand. He pulled him over to the skates stall.

Dark couldn't help but notice that Chosen seemed off.

"You alright?" He asked as Chosen sighed.

"I uh.. I don't know how to skate." He said. Thankfully he wasn't the only one as he looked over and saw Blue struggling on the ice. This made him giggle a little.

Dark soon chuckled a little aswell.

"Come on, you'll be fine." He said before leading the two to the stand. They then walked to a bench as Dark put on his skates. After that, he looked at Chosen who had his on but refused to get up from the bench. Dark chuckled, standing up before taking Chosen's hands and pulling him up.

"Easy.." he said as Chosen's legs shook with each step. Once they got to the ice, Dark gently glided backwards— the only ones actually on the ice besides them were Blue and Yellow— as Chosen panicked. He lost his balance and quickly grabbed onto Dark's shoulders.

"SHIT—" He shouted, a lil scared. Dark gave a small chuckle.

"Hey, hey, You're okay, i got you."

"You say that like I'm a child.." Chosen mumbled.

Dark laughed again. "Cmon, pull yourself up. If I'm gonna teach you, then you need to regain your balance." Chosen struggled to balance himself.

"It would help if you stopped moving!! HA—!!" He said, as he almost fell. Finally they reached one of the walls as Dark stopped gliding to allow Chosen to finally stand.

"I fucking hate this.." Chosen grumbled as Dark took Chosen's hands in his. "Come on, it isn't that bad.."

Dark started to gently glide as he watched Chosen's feet.

"The first part is just learning how to simply keep your balance. Don't let your feet spread outwards." He said as Chosen nodded.

"It's like walking." Dark continued. "One foot in front of the other and let yourself glide."

As  Chosen started to skate, he noticed Dark's grip on his hands getting weaker.

"DARKDONTYOUDARELETGO" he shouted. Dark simply laughed.

"Relax Cho, you're fine. Even if I do let go, I ain't going nowhere." He said as he slowly let go, still gliding in front in case Chosen fell. Once he did, Chosen did struggle a little, but managed to keep the same momentum. Until he lost that momentum and fell, but thankfully Dark caught him from under his shoulder.

"Ahh, and you were doing so well!"

"Oh fuck off.." Chosen grumbled.

"Hehe! But look, you were able to do it all by yourself, man!" Dark exclaimed which earned a small laugh from Chosen. Dark felt his heartbeat get louder within this moment..

The two continued to glide on the bus together, with Dark occasionally letting go and letting Chosen take the lead.
