Ice Skates: A One Direction short story

Ice Skates

Ice Skates:

I sat grumpily on the cold, icy bench next to the rink, listening to music, god I hated iceskating. Why learn to use skates when we have perfectly good feet to use for transporation? I know, I know some people call it "fun", but not me.

Now your possibly wondering why I'm at the ice rink in the first place, well my friend Cassie dragged me down here so she could go cruising for boys- typical Cassie- and promised to buy me new One Direction perfume. How could I say no?

She knew I was a sucker for One Direction and I had been wanting the perfume for weeks.

Just as One Directions Kiss You came, on Cassie glided over to me in her skates.

"Oh come on Hayley, stop being such a stick in the mud! Get on the ice, we have a deal remember?" She shouted from the rink.

"Ah, a but you didn't specify I had to iceskate, therefore I'm perfectly fine staying on the bench, thank you very much" I replied, smirking.

"Do you want the perfume or not?" She said back. Yes, I did actually.

"Hey! That's not fair, I came didn't I?" I said scowling.

"Life isn't fair kid, now get on the ice" She replied laughing, and I knew she had won.

"Fine!" I scowled, walking over to the open space in the rink as slowly as I could.

The minute my feet hit the ice- well my skates blades did- I immediently felt uneasy.I wasn't use to this, but I think I could pretty quickly. Hey, I said I didn't like iceskating, not that I couldn't.

After a few minutes on the ice it seemed a little bit more natural (with the occasional fall) , but I still wasn't as good as Cassie, not that I had any intentions on being so.

I skated over to the barrier of the rink to take a brake and from behind me Cassie yanked my ponytail, causing me to fall onto my butt.

"l'll get you back Summers!" I yealled, but Cassie was already far from my reach at the other side of the rink laughing hysterically.

No matter what, I would get her back.

I stayed put for a while, planning my revenge, then I got it. The perfect plan.

Cassie had stayed over the other side of the rink, ovbiously knowing I would try and get her back.She had started occupying her time by talking to a tall boy with long dark hair, flirting I guessed.

Anyway, my plan was to sneak up on her and pull her over in front of the boy, total embarrassment. Don't call me cruel, she did it first!

I started to clumsily skate over to her, setting my plan in action, when I tripped on a dip in the ice sending my flying forward only to be caught in the arms of someone.

"Hey, are you ok?" The voice asked anxiously, Irish accent.It sounded extremely familiar.

"I think so?" I replied quietly, even I wasn't to sure about that myself.

I then looked up at my saviour, blonde hair, blue eyes, that face.

I was in the arms of Niall Horan...
