Taylor's POV-
I glared at the boy's heads, while grabbing my ice skating boots thing. Do they want to see me die of embarrasment?! I'm terrible! Well, i'm terrible because I never even tried to do ice-skating.I slipped off my converse and tied on the ice-skating rink shoes thing. I got up and wobbled. This is hard to walk in. I'm a gymnast. I can balance a beam yet I can't balance ice-skating shoes. I took a deep breathe and calmed myself. These things are like walking in 7 inch heels.
"Do we have to?" I whine. The boys looked at me and grinned mischievously. "Yes," they say in unison. I huff and pout. "Do you guys know how to ice skate?" I ask. They nod. I roll my eyes. They grabbed my shoes and placed it in a locker.
Bradley and Chase each grabbed one of my hands and helped me to the rink. They let go of me and I wobble. I held on to the railings. I watched as a little girl spun on the ice. I gaped at her. How?!
Lucas went on the ice like it was no big deal. He held his hand out to me. "Come on. I'll guide you," he said. I felt butterflies in my stomach. I grabbed his hand. I stepped on the ice hesistantly. I almost slipped, but Lucas grabbed my waist gently.
We looked into each others eyes. We broke eye contact and I looked down. I felt the heat creep up to my cheeks. He glided gracefully on the ice with ease, with him holding onto my waist gliding me with him. He was doing all the gliding till I moved my feet. I glided from left to right till I got the hang of it.
I got used to the gliding then I felt Lucas's arms slide off my waist. I closed my eyes and felt the cold wind break through my face. I laughed. I opened my eyes and quickly turned before I hit the wall. I giggled. This is so much fun.
"How do I stop?" I asked, Lucas as he appeared next to me. "Lean your foot a bit," he said. I leaned my foot a bit and I felt myself slow down. When I completely stopped, I looked at Lucas. "Thank you," I say, kissing his cheek. He turned a bright red. I giggled.
I poked his cheek. Is Lucas blushing? Now this was a memory to remember. I kept poking his cheek while laughing. He swatted my hand away and groaned. "W-we should go to the guys now," he stammered. He looked so cute. Cute? When did cute cross my mind? Sure he's hot and handsome, but when did cute come?
We ice-skated towards the other boys, where I saw them falling multiple times. I lifted my leg back and let my arms widen like a bird. When we got closer, I stopped. They gawked at me. "How did you learn to do that?" Chase asked incredulously.
I laughed and looked at Lucas. "I have the best teacher," I say, poking Lucas's blushing cheek. The guys laughed. "Whipped," Chase muttered under his breathe. I looked at him with confusion, but shook it off.
We spent an hour teaching the two boys to ice-skate. We returned the ice skating boots and slipped on our regular shoes. As I retrieved my Forever bag, I turned to the guys and hugged them. They returned the hug and pulled back.
"What was that for?" Bradley asked. "For making me have a good time on the day before my birthday," I say. There eyes widen. "Your birthday?!" they say in disbelief. Lucas looks at his phone and groans.
"It's October 16. Your birthday is on the 17th," Lucas says, running a hand across his soft brown hair. Woah, my tiny crush is turning to a humungous one. "Thankfully, I bought Sapphire cardigans," I say, pointing to my bag. Sapphire loves cardigans.
"We need to get you and Sapphire presents," Bradley says. I roll my eyes. "You guys don't have to get me anything. You guys gave me a good time here at the mall. You guys made me go ice-skating for the first time. It was awesome. That's all I need," I say. They aw.
"Even though that was heart warming, were still getting you a gift. Now, run along now. Go to Starbucks or shop for your sister or yourself or the other girls. Were getting you and Sapphire the most awesomest present ever. Here use this," Chase says, taking out a hundred dollar bill.
I shoved it back to his hand. He shoved it back to my hand. We kept doing this till he shoved it down my shirt along with Lucas's hundred dollar bill and ran off with Lucas and Bradley. I took the two hundred dollars out of my shirt and sighed.
Boys. There stubborn. Especially Chase. Wait, I'm stubborn too. Yay! That makes two of us. Now what am I gonna do with the money? I walked around till' I spotted a store called Papaya. I bought some clothes there for Sapphire and me. I also went back to Forever and bought some shorts and crop tops for the girls and I. I had a hundred left.
I've been here for 30 minutes. I went to a jewelry shop. I spotted rings, necklaces and bracelets. Maybe that's where I'll waste the last hundred and some of my money. I bought me, Sapphire, Samantha, and Francesca rings, bracelets and necklaces.
Samantha got a silver diamond bubble ring because she's so bubbly, a charm bracelet with a flower charm, all of our groups first initials and a charm that was carved into 'Fab 7' that I had custom made. A necklace that said 'bubbly.' I had that boxed up in one box.
Francesca got a silver diamond ice cream ring because she loves to eat, a charm bracelet with a leaf charm, our first initials like Samantha's and our Fab 7 charm. A necklace that said 'Kind.' I also had it boxed.
Sapphire got a silver sapphire heart that had a silver crown on the top, a charm bracelet with a mustache charm, the initials and the fab charm. A necklace that said 'Fierce.' Boxed up checked.
I got a silver yellow and green diamond pine-apple ring, the charm bracelet with a musical note, the initials and Fab charm. A necklace that said 'Insecure.' I'm pretty sure i'm insecure. I always think about what others think of me.
I thanked the lady and paid her 120. It costed alot, but it was worth it. There pretty. I've come to known Samantha and Francesca as sisters. I was walking to the exit of the mall, when I passed by Victoria's Secret. I glanced over and saw the guys there. I snapped a picture on my phone. I looked away quickly, when they saw me. I walked but not before glancing at the store, seeing them hide behind the lingerie and bras.
I walked out and waited by the car. I sat on the trunk, looking through photos on my phone. 20 minutes later, I saw the boys holding birthday bags, full of boxed and fully wrapped presents. "Hey. We saw you walking by then we hid. Did you happen to see us?" Lucas asked, nervously.
I bit my tongue to keep me from laughing. "Nope," I lie. I looked down at my phone and looked at the picture and giggled. They tried to look, but I quickly brought it to my chest. They eyed me then shrugged. I jumped off the trunk and they opened it. They carefully placed the bags and I placed my bags in the back to.
We got inside the car. Chase drove, Bradley rode shotgun, so it was me and Lucas in the back. I leaned my head on his shoulder and yawned. I soon fell asleep.
