Sakura slid her worn out ,white rhinestone skates on. She stood up from the bench that she was sitting on and glided to the ice rink.
Taking a deep breath as she began to glide through the slippery cold ice, she began to make turns a swirls losing herself in the ice. She let a smile fill her pretty pale face, her wavy curls moving with every spin that she made.
She always loved skating it let her slowly release any stress that she had bottle up inside. She stopped and glided softly on the ice watching her reflection on the sparkling thick ice.

Akio let out a sigh of relief as he entered the skating rink. He had been trying to get away from his family all day, and going to the picnic had only made him realize none of his old friends made it to this new town. He got some skates, happy they were cheap, and went to put them on. He put his shoes under the bench, not able to help but think, They need lockers here for your stuff, like in Korea... He looked out onto the ice rink and noticed one girl showing off, No, she seems really good, maybe she practicing or something. He corrected himself. He put his hands in his pockets and glided slowly around with the rest of the people, staying near the wall as he re-adjusted to ice skating. It's been a while... He thought to himself, taking the hand closest to the wall out of his pocket, stealing glances at the girl spinning in the center of the rink.

Sakura looked around her and saw many people start to pile in. Not that she minded, no no at all is just that she rather have enough space for herself, not caring that is sounded as selfish as it was.
She saw many couples skate with each other huge smiles on each of their faces. Sighing she should have brought her camera, she always loved to take pictures in the ice rink, but today she just had to forget.
She continue to glide over the hard but sooth eyes, she felt someones eyes on her so she slowly turned and started to skate backwards, she saw a kid around her age staring straight in her direction. Quirking and eye brow in his direction, she wondered why he was staring at her. There were many people who far exceeded her skating.

Akio caught the talented girl staring at him and he quickly looked away, the motion causing him to become unbalanced. He fell onto his bottom, smiling at himself and shaking his head.

Sakura gasped hoping that she didn't cause him to fall, she wasn't usually this open to strangers, but if she did cause him to fall it was only right to help him out. She skated towards him, her dark blue eyes hiding the fact that she was worried. Once she reached him, she looked away and offer him her hand.

Akio looked at the hand, a little curious at first, then realized it was the girl he had been watching. He took her hand and pulled himself up, giving a small, nervous laugh after he got up fully. "I'm not normally this bad..." He felt the need to say.

She looked back at him when she felt him grasp her hand. When he was back on his feet, she stared at him closely and frowned he wasn't that bad looking, but he sure was clumsy.
"It's okay, we all have our off days" she said softly, keeping her same aloof expression. She wasn't very good at conversations when it came to strangers.

Akio nodded, biting his lip as if trying to shove away his bruised pride. "You were uh, doing pretty good." He told her, still trying to get his pride back.

"Thanks, I practice all the time on my free time when I come to the ice rink." She said and bit her lip, she wasn't known for talking to strangers in such a familiar way.
She glanced at the guy and sigh , she didn't know what made him so different, he looked like a normal teenager, there was nothing special about him , she thought frowning.

Akio nodded, then suddenly realized they were still holding hands. He quickly pulled his hand away and gave a small, nervous laugh. "That's... That's pretty cool. I play a lot of sports, but I don't usually ice skate... It just sounded nice today." He admitted with a small shrug. "You uh... wanna skate together?" He asked her, a little shy. He wasn't used to making new friends anymore.

She shrugged it didn't hurt keeping him company, her family did say she should actually 'try' to make new friends.
"Sure, but you got to keep up with me first" she said smirking at him. She turned around and a pretty frown found its way towards her lips. Why was she acting like this? she asked herself. She usually wasn't this social with a person she just met, she shrugged must be the cold .
She shook her head and started to glide through the ice, "Hurry up" she said not looking back.

Akio smiled and skated his way to catch up to her. Finally remembering how to ice skate, he sped up, finally really catching up to her. "Gotcha," He said, putting his hands on her shoulders.

Sakura let out a gasp not expecting him to touch her, she felt her cheeks heating and a small smile rise up toward sher lips. She shook her head and smirked and turned around, she escaped his grasp and started to skate backwards.
"Well not for long" she said and started to skate a bit faster.

Akio grinned, enjoying the game of ice skate tag, going faster to catch up to her, but only able to get close. "Not fair, you're like, a professional." He called out playfully."

Sakura did a quick spin and stuck her tongue out a him. She wondered when this childish side of her turned up, she never acted this way before ever since she turned twelve.
"To bad, you have to catch up." she said gliding against the ice faster.
She wouldn't admit this out load but she guessed she was having a good time.
