The horn of Itachi's grey Mercedes went off for the fourth time tonight outside of the Uchiha household. Because Sasuke's GTR was getting service, Itachi was the one to drive both (Name) and Sasuke to the ice skating rink.
"You're not gonna get cold in those?" Sasuke asked, referring to his girlfriend's black tights. "It's okay, I don't get cold easily."
(Name) checked her ponytail one last time and adjusted her faded yellow sweater. She walked into her closet and pulled out a box of yellow Vans, putting them on quicker when she heard the car horn go off again.
(Name) walked over to Sasuke and wrapping her arm around his. The pair walked out to the car. They both sat in the back seats, (Name) rested her head on Sasuke's shoulder, greeting Itachi.
The ride to the rink was fairly moderate, not too short or long, just a nice quiet ride.
The couple thanked Itachi and made their way inside, paying for their neon green wristbands. Beyond the paying booth was Hinata, Naruto, and Sakura sitting a table with their skates already tightly tied on. "Hey." Sasuke greeted as he walked past the table to get rental skates. (Name) sat at the table with the others.
"Sorry, did we take long?" (Name) asked awkwardly as she played with the straps of her mini backpack purse. "Nah, we didn't wait too long! Man, are you ready to fall today though?" Snickered Naruto.
Sakura rolled her eyes. "The only ones falling will be (Name) and you, Naruto. Sasuke and Hinata can skate. And I can manage just fine!" (Name) Giggled a little, enjoying whenever Naruto and Sakura had friendly arguments.
"I-I can help if you want, Naruto?" Hinata stated shyly. After being together for 8 months, Hinata was still shy around Naruto. "Really?! Aww, that'll be great!"
Sasuke returned with two pairs of skates in both hands; one for him, the other for (Name). (Name) mumbled a low thank you and started removing her regular shoes and putting on the skates. Sasuke did the same.
"Ah, I need a boyfriend like Sasuke, you two are so cute!" Sakura said, twirling a short strand of her pink hair.
"You'll need someone to even like you first!"
"Shut up, Naruto!"

Finally, the five of them had finished putting their shoes in lockers and made it to the actual rink. (Name) was surprised by the automatic balance in the skates, as well as Naruto.
Sakura began her wobbly decent and Hinata helped Naruto on the Ice, trying to calm him down from his fear of slipping. (Name) Watched them with a nervous smile, holding onto the wall and refusing to move from the rink entrance.
"Do you wanna hold my hand?" Asked a deep familiar voice. (Name) quickly looked up at Sasuke, who had one hand casually in his pockets and was looking straight ahead. His other hand was sticking out, waiting for (Name).
"Y-Yes please!"
Sasuke snickered quietly as his girlfriend held tightly in his hand. He slowly led her onto the ice, watching in amusement as her face changed expressions from fear to cautious excitement.
The ravenette pulled out his other hand and held onto her waist, skating backward and gliding her around. "Wow... You're so good at this!"
The pinkette gazed in jealousy as she skated around the border. She watched Sasuke effortlessly skate around people and Naruto getting the hang of it with Hinata applauding. 'Stupid couples..'
Things were going nicely until (Name)'s long laces became loose and got caught in her skate. She let out a small squeal as she jerked forward, bumping Sasuke, and ending up toppling to the ground with him.
"Ouch... you okay, Sasuke?" Sasuke nodded, helping his girlfriend to her feet and helping dust off the stray pieces of chipped ice. (Name) shivered. When they fell, her top half was on Sasuke and her bottom half hit the ice, wetting her leggings. "Look who's cold," Sasuke remarked as he skated off the rink with (Name).
"T-that's only cause we fell!"
"Just admit I'm right."
(Name) took a seat on a bench, quickly hugging herself. Then, a black jacket was wrapped around her. She looked at Sasuke, who was now only in a plain long sleeve and gave him a sweet smile. He'd never admit to it, but he desperately loved her smile.
"I'm gonna head back on the ice, we can start again when you warm up."
"Okay! I love you!" (Name) quickly covered her mouth. Somehow it just slipped, forgetting that Sasuke hated showing too much affection in public. "Oh! I'm s-"
"Love you too," Sasuke commented, not bothering to turn around. (Name) Just smiled again. 'He's such a softie..'
