Just Haven't Met You Yet

Chapter 4

Both friend groups walked into the ice rink with their skates in hand. Kayla and Austin were laughing at one another while Natalie, Katherine, Emma, and Olivia all conversed amongst themselves. The three girls had sort of adopted Olivia due to her quiet nature. Jordan had done something similar when they met, but now it was happening over again. Jordan smiled watching Olivia laugh at the girls with her. Meanwhile Madison was at Jordan's side.

"I'm nervous," Madison said grabbing onto Jordan's arm. "You better hold my hand!"

Jordan smirked. How did this girl not know she was gay?

"Of course I'll hold your hand," Jordan said looking down at the girl. Madison looked up and smiled in a devious manner.

Everyone sat down and began putting on their skates. Everyone got theirs on quickly and began heading towards the ice. Jordan stayed with Madison who was slower at putting on her skates. Madison finally tied her skates and Jordan stood up,

"Okay it's gonna feel kinda weird to walk and you're gonna have to learn to balance yourself," Jordan held out her hand to the sitting girl.

Madison sighed nervously, looking at Jordan's hand for a moment. She looked up to Jordan's face and found Jordan once again staring at her. She got a look of confidence on her face grabbed the girl's hand. Madison started to stand up and immediately started pulling hard on Jordan's hand due to how weird it felt being on the skates.

"Whoa! Careful!" Jordan said, grabbing the other girl's free hand. She stayed firm as the girl wobbled on her skates.

Madison turned red realizing she had gotten a little too confident. She looked up into Jordan's eyes.

"There you go," Jordan said as Madison slowly gained her balance. "Now try to walk. I'll still hold your hand."

Madison shakily took a step forward while gripping Jordan's hand super tight. For once she wasn't focused on Jordan's face, but rather her own feet.

"See you got it." Jordan held her hand as they walked forward slowly. "Do you want to try the ice now?"

Madison looked to Jordan with big eyes. "I'm gonna fall," Madison said, with much less confidence than before.

Jordan smiled, "Hey, it's okay fall, I fell a lot in the beginning too. Hell, I still fall over sometimes."

"Really?" Madison asked, she was afraid the girl was lying to make her feel better.

"Yea of course, it's pretty funny when I do too," Jordan said trying to lighten the mood.

Madison giggled imagining the girl falling over.

Jordan walked them to the opening of the ice rink. She stepped in still holding Madison's hand, "Now be careful, it's gonna be really slippery."

Madison gripped the side of the wall and stepped her foot onto the ice. She took a deep breath and stood still for a moment. She went to put her other foot on the ice and started wobbling. She slipped and started falling forward. Jordan grabbed her other hand again as she fell into her chest.

"Whoa!" Jordan said standing firm as she caught the girl. She was used to taking harder hits than that on the ice. Jordan lifted the girl up to help steady her, "Hold onto the wall too, it'll help."

Madison moved her right hand back to the wall and gripped it tightly as she tried to gain balance.

"Now your instinct is going to be to step, but you kinda need to glide," Jordan explained.

Madison stared at her feet and moved them attempting to glide and wobbled as she went.

"Yea, there you go, just take it nice and slow," Jordan said slowly skating next to the girl. Madison was gripping her hand really tight, but Jordan didn't care.
