Sunday morning, you woke up to a text from Lucas.

"Hey, do you wanna go roller skating with me and Isabella today? We're going in a few hours, and she said she wanted to meet you"

"..she wants to *meet* me? ..why?"

"Idk, maybe she just wants to get to know you too- since we're close.."

"ok well, i don't wanna intrude on your date.. i'd just be the third wheel, lol"

"It's not a date. Please just come. If you love me, you'll come."

"..alright fine, but i'm bringing doyoung so it'll be less awkward for me."

Lucas didn't text back after that, so you messaged Doyoung asking if he wanted to come. He complained that he'd already agreed to go to Johnny's party later today, and he thought *that* would be enough socializing for one day, but he eventually agreed to go.

You smiled widely, texting back, "thank youuuuuuu", before getting ready to go.

Your mom didn't think it would be a good idea for you to go skating when you already had a broken wrist, but you convinced her that you'd be careful, and wouldn't let go of the railings, and she eventually decided to let you go.

As you were getting ready, you noticed you'd gotten a text from your dad saying you left your bracelet at his house, and you told him you'd pick it up later today.

"Today is boutta be so busy," you think to yourself, searching for an outfit for later, to wear to Johnny's party.

...

"Y/n, hi! I'm Isabella. Thanks for coming to meet me- I know you and Lucas are close and I just wanted to get to know his best friend. Hopefully we'll become close friends too," she says, giving you a hug as soon as you and Doyoung walked into the roller skating rink.

Doyoung and Lucas exchanged dark looks, (but you didn't notice).

You gave a small smile back, feeling a bit uncomfortable. For some reason, what Isabella was saying just didn't seem genuine.

Her words were friendly, but the look she was giving you was almost as if she was sizing you up or something- trying to figure out what was so special about you that'd make Lucas wanna be your friend.

The more you looked at her, the more you thought she looked oddly familiar. Not even just the way she looked, but the way she talked even seemed familiar. Almost like you'd seen her before- or seen someone that looked like her before. You just couldn't put your finger on where you'd seen her, and just ended up brushing off the thought, walking over to the counter to pay for roller skates.

You were right about Isabella not being genuine. The real reason she wanted to meet you was to get an idea of who she was in competition with for Lucas. She was determined to win no matter what.

...

After you all found a spot to sit at, Lucas took your things and put them in the lockers for you, and Doyoung helped you put your skates on, kneeling down on the ground beside you to help. "I feel like Cinderella," you joke, and he snickers a bit, tying the laces.

Isabella notices this, wondering, "how many guys does this girl have wrapped around her finger? Both him and Lucas seem like they'd do anything for her..."

Immediately when you stood up after getting your roller skates on, you slid and almost fell back onto the floor. Thankfully, Lucas caught you before that happened.

"You don't know how to skate?" He laughs, helping you stand back up. "I do, I just haven't done it in a while," you say defensively, after regaining your balance.
