We'll Be Together (Janthony)

~17~

Anthony's POV

"Come on, Ant. Hurry up!" Jas said, pulling me excitedly to the door. I smiled.

"Hold on." I said while laughing. I grabbed my coat.

"It's snowing!! And it's Christmas!!! I can't hold on!" She said, jumping up and down. I chuckled and walked over to her. She grabbed my hand and ran down the hall, with me stumbling closely behind. We burst through the doors.

Jas ran around the sidewalk, spinning and catching snow on her tongue. I joined her. People stared at us as we both made complete fools of ourselves.

"Come on!" I said grabbing her arm. She looked at me, confused.

"Where are we going?" She asked as I pulled her to a cab. I smiled and didn't answer.

The drive didn't take long and soon Jas was looking at the Christmas tree at Rockefeller center. She grinned brightly.

"Ice skating?" She asked. I nodded.

We walked up to the skate rentals.

"Um Ant?" Jas said looking slightly embarrassed. "I've never been ice skating." I smiled at her.

"That's fine. I'll teach you." I said while I put my arm around her waist. She grinned and rested her head on my shoulder.

We got our skates and put them on. Jas stumbled the second she got up. I laughed.

"Shut up!" She said. "This is hard!" This only made me laugh harder. I helped her up and walked her to the rink.

Jas got to the ice and immediately grasped the wall. I smiled and grabbed her hand.

She grinned at me and attempted to stand but quickly fell back down.

I helped her up and held her hand while she cautiosly let go of the wall. Suddenly two teenagers skated on either side of us. Jas fell back down.

"WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!!!" One of the teens yelled. Jas looked embarrassed. I started to skate angrily after them. Jas giggled.

"It's fine Ant. Leave 'em alone." I reluctantly went back and helped her up. Jas slowly learned to skate. After a couple hours, she was going faster than me.

Jas was very far ahead of me. She turned around a laughed at me.

"Come on hurry up." She yelled. I rolled my eyes at her. Then I noticed that she was heading straight towards the wall at a very fast speed.

"JAS WATCH OUT!!!" I yelled. It was too late. She rammed into the wall. A loud boom rang through the rink. Everyone turned to look.

"I'm fine!" Jas said from the ground. I laughed as she got up.

"SORRY!" She yelled to her spectators. They all went back to what they were doing. (This actually happened to me irl.)

Jas skated to me, looking at the ground with embarrassment. I was still bent over laughing.

"Shut up!" She said while she punched me playfully in the shoulder. "Let's go."

I skated off with her. We returned our skates and got a cab.

Jas and I arrived at our apartment and turned on some Christmas music.

"Oh I love this song!" I exclaimed. Jas smiled as she started to slow dance with me. We did this through-out that song and for the next two. Finally I broke away and ran to my room.

I emerged with a small box, that contained my present for Jas. She smiled.

"Aww look at the penguins on the wrapping paper!" Jas exclaimed as I handed it to her. She opened the present, careful not to rip the paper. She then opened the box.
