Edward parked the car on the vacant lot then walked around to open my door. We entered the building where the ice skating rink is located and where we will meet them. My watch says there will be 15 more minutes before 3 so we decided to sit on the chairs. Edward took my hand and squeezed it gently assuring me that it'll go just fine. I smiled back at him. At the back of my mind, I felt like dying because of the little pixie made me go here. What if I break my bones? Slip very hard and die? Ugh! I just sense something's going to happen, I just don't know what.

I rested my back at Edward, feeling the comfort and assurance of being safe. He slung his arm at my shoulders and traced circles around my back. We watched the view of the place, childrens were happy and enjoying the fun they have. I felt peace surrounding me when suddenly I heard a loud call of my name, Alice! I looked at Edward trying to find for help but he gave me a nod and whispered on my ear, "Bella there's no way you're winning an argument over Alice." I let out an exasperated sigh at what he said, knowing he's right.

"Bella, Bella, Bella!" Alice bounced up and down while clapping her hands.

I looked at her confused and she started talking, "Bella, thanks god you're here! Don't let that dream eat you out!" 

Alice started saying things so fast and I don't know how to comprehend it. Jasper gave me an apologetic look and I smiled at him. "Bella! Were you listening to me?" Alice interrupted me.

"I..uh.." I trailed off, just then my brother and Rose came.

"Yo peeps!" Emmett greeted us and I rolled my eyes at his enthusiasm.

"Okay, now that everyone's here. We need to pay then, let the fun begin!" Alice squealed.

We formed a line and payed for the entrance fee. The employee gave us the skating shoes and some other materials that could help us incase we fall. I put on those things and felt anxious. I'm being a pessimist but maybe I could change that. I think of trying and that I couldn't be that bad in skating. We left our bags inside the lockers provided then the employee opened that door for us to enter the rink. Edward offered his hand and I gladly took it. 

I had problem in balancing these skating shoes that I could just slip everytime I move it. Edward tighten his grip on my hand and moved me in front of him so that he could guide me. They separate from us and I saw Alice gliding like a ballet dancer, wow that's really fantastic. Emmett and Rose were going slowly but seemed to enjoy it. "Edward, just don't let me fall." I said weakly. "Promise." He answered. Edward and I stayed near the railings of the rink so that I could get hold of it.

Thank god, I didn't slip yet! I enjoyed it here, though I'm no fun at all. I feared that Edward regreted to be with me instead of having fun. I let my eyes wander to my surroundings and many people were here, enjoying and didn't show any sign of fear. "Edward, I'm sorry. I know you want to enjoy but..." I said but he cut me off mid sentence. "Bella, it's not your fault that you're a danger magnet. That's why I'm here to be your hero." He gave me his crooked grin and I couldn't help myself but agree with him.

He got my hands off the railings and hold both of them, they were trembling and my feet felt jelly. He lead me to the center part and the thought of tripping, slipping filled me with dread. "Edward, I can't do this." I whispered and felt like fainting. "I got your back, Love." He winked at me. I let out a sigh and just followed where he lead me. "I trust you." I muttered. We began to skate at a slower pace, together our fingers joined and he guided me to explore the other parts of the ice skating rink.

Soon the 30 minutes time that we have payed for was finished. We skated back to a dry place and changed back to our shoes then pulled those safety materials out of our bodies. We got our bags inside the locker room and headed to an Italian restaurant to eat dinner. Along the way we talked about how fun it was there and other stuffs. I even told them that I vowed never to go skating again and they end up laughing which caused me to blush. We entered the restaurant, chose a table for 6 person and the waiter handed us the menu.
