Cassidy's POV.
"Oh my gosh Lauren I can't do this!"
"Just hold on I got you babe!" Lauren laughed and I pouted as I gripped my hands tightly around her neck.
Ice skating really wasn't my thing. But I was actually having fun.
"So, you having fun yet?" I turned my head to see Lauren smiling brightly at me.
"You know what, I never in my life pictured myself doing anything like this but I can actually say I'm having fun." I said while pushing my hair out of my face.
"Even though I'm clearly no good at it." I laughed and Lauren shook her head.
"You're perfect." I felt heat rapidly run up to my cheeks as I put my head down not wanting her to see me.
I heard her clear her throat and looked up to see her nervously rubbing the back of her neck.
"Umm uh that came out wrong, n-not that you're not perfect or anything- I mean I just didn't mean to say that." She put her head in her hands.
I stared at her as she rambled on. "Lauren, I understand it's ok."
I heard her take a deep breath as she looked around. she seemed deep in thought about something, like she was thinking really hard.
"You know I really do enjoy spending time with you. I meant to say that." She smiled and grabbed my hand slowly.
"So do I Lauren. I'm glad I met you." I gave her a smile back.
"So am I." She whispered while not taking her eyes off of me.

Lauren's POV.
"Hey that was mine." I laughed as I licked Cassidy's ice cream. After our long afternoon of ice skating and me showing her around, I thought we deserved a break.
But I'm really just glad I'm starting to get her to come out of her shell a bit. Now I know it's going to take her some time to completely trust me. But we're making progress.
"My bad it just looked really good." I laughed as I wiped my hand across her face to get the ice cream off.
She smiled but I quickly went away. I gave her a confused look wondering why she had gotten so quiet all of a sudden.
I put my hand on top of her's getting her attention. "Hey, you ok?"
She nodded and sighed.
"Come on you can tell me." I reinsured her with a small smile.
"It's just- do you think that Chris is really going to come back and get me?" She whispered while looking down at her lap.
I should have knew that was what this was about. I hate that she's still thinking about him, he shouldn't even be on her mind anymore. I know I sound stupid, but he hurt her and I'm not letting that happen again.
"Cassidy, no. Why are you even thinking about that?"
She shrugged and pushed her hair strands out of her face. "I'm just worried that he might come back and do something to you. Then I won't have anybody anymore."
She's worried about me?
"Cassidy you don't need to worry about me. I'll be fine ok? And even if he does come back no one will be hurt I promise."
