Noah and Juliet walked side by side as they approached the Powderhorn.
The cold air hung heavy around them, and the distant sound of pucks smacking against sticks grew louder with every step.
The moment the rink came into view, Juliet's eyes lit up.
Without warning, she bolted forward. "Whoever loses has to clean the dishes!" she called over her shoulder, her laughter carrying on the breeze.
"Hey, no fair! You got a head start!" Noah shouted after her, his voice tinged with playful frustration.
He pushed forward, but Juliet, quick on her feet, reached the edge of The Pond first.
Panting, Noah caught up with her, the two of them now close enough to see their friends playing hockey.
Out on the ice, Goldberg was struggling to defend the net, taking hit after hit from the flying puck.
"Keep it down, please!" Goldberg yelled, arms flailing in the air. "Hey, come on. There's no need for this. Let's talk! I'm your friend, aren't I?"
"Come on, Goldberg!" Jesse hollered from across the ice. "At least try to stop it. I'm tired of chasin' the puck!"
Juliet and Noah exchanged amused glances as they walked forward to get a closer look at the commotion.
Goldberg stood at the goal, hands raised in surrender as the puck whizzed past him once again.
"Be careful, man," Goldberg muttered, ducking. "It almost hit me that time."
Charlie, who was standing nearby, rolled his eyes. "Goldberg, you're the goalie. It's supposed to hit you."
"Does that sound stupid to anyone else?" Goldberg called out, exasperated.
Noah smirked. "Nah, that's just the rule of hockey, Goldberg."
Charlie turned, noticing the two siblings. His face broke into a grin. "Noah! Hey!"
Noah lifted a hand in greeting. "How's it going, Charlie?"
Charlie's eyes flicked to Juliet. "Hey, Juliet."
Juliet gave him a small smile. "Hello, Charlie."
For a moment, Charlie just stared at her, his words caught in his throat.
Goldberg, noticing, nudged Charlie in the side.
Charlie snapped back to attention, stumbling over his words. "Uh, Connie's over there if you're looking for her."
Juliet lightly touched Charlie's shoulder, her voice warm. "Thanks, Charlie."
Just then, a long grey car rolled into the park, catching everyone's attention.
