We stood before the big skating ring, I glanced at Gray to see his face smiling in happiness and hurried all the way to the passenger's door. I stepped out of the car with fear, my lefts Jell-O, and my hands fidgeting. I crossed my arms and rubbed it, trying to get warm by the sudden weather, it has became colder. I looked at myself, noticed I was wearing the wrong outfit. Great. "Are you cold?"

I think Gray noticed me shivering with a lot of my skin showing. I nodded and he hurried to his trunk and grab a sweater. He handed it to me and I took it and wore it, it felt warm, the scent of mint coming out from it, it smells refreshing. He giggled a little, looking at the sweater before looking into my eyes. I raised a brow looking at him in confusion, he smiled and replied "You look cute wearing that sweater, it suits you, very well.." I blushed and looked

at the sweater, it's colored bright pink and it was a long sleeved sweater, covering some of my tiny fingers. Wait.. He has a pink sweater in his trunk?!!

"How come you have a pink sweater in your trunk?!"

He brushed his hair before looking into my eyes, "Well, I bought it especially for you." I was in shocked and blushed, I think I had to do some blushing control right now. But I think I have this little thing for Gray, and idk what it is...

"Thanks.." Is all I can say. He did too much for me already and I appreciate every one of them, I must also stop receiving gifts starting from today. Remind that to myself.

"What are you waiting for?" Not going in there, that's for sure!

"Uh...-"

"Let's go!" he grabbed my wrists and dragged me to the entrance.

"Hello! How many people are joining?"

"For two please.." Gray answered. I looked at him searching for the tickets in his bag, still noticing that the woman is still waiting for our tickets. "Umm.. It'll take a while..." I smiled to the woman before she nodded, smiling back at me.

Gray found the tickets and gave it to the woman. "Oops..." I ticket flew off the ground while I tried to grab it, "It's okay.. I can do it..." I nodded before returning back to my standing position. "Thank you and have a nice day!"

As we went in the shoe pick-up area, I asked "You're so clumsy..."

"Well, I think I am..."

I just smiled in response and we finally reached the counter. "8 size please." The guy nodded before turning his gaze to mine, "And how about you, beautiful lady?"

"Uh..., " kinda blushed, control the blush, control it!! I stopped. "Size 6." he nodded before going inside the gigantic room fill with skating shoes. Gray gave him one last glare and I noticed he has some anger in his eyes. Sounds bad to me...

After a long wait of the shoes, the guy came back with two skates with mine the smallest and hand it to us. I muttered a thank you and wore it. "Getting excited?"

I turn to look at the owner's voice, I shook my head while muttered a no. "Why not??"

"I just never like skating.."

"Why??"

I sighed, trying to recall the memories that was still on my brain, processing everything. Flashbacks came.

~At the age of 7~

"Dad.. Can we go skating like those people on the tv??" I pointed to a group of expert skaters that were shown wide on the tv.

"Sure honey..." dad smiled looking at me before looking back at the tv screen. "How bout you invite your friends?" That is a good idea!! I can spend time with my friends, chit chatting-. Continue to the point.
