Yeah... It's all a lie. I said I wasn't updating, but now I am. I started writing this last night. Then one thing lead to another and here we are. Whoop de do. Anyway, hope y'all enjoy and see ya next Monday... which is Christmas.
Ice Skating Lessons.
I pulled the coat tighter around my body. The sky was bright and blue with a shining sun touching the sparking snow.
"I don't think this is a good idea Yang. I mean, do you even know how to ice skate?" I asked.
We were standing around an empty frozen pond. Yang was holding two pairs of ice skates with a big smile on her rosy cheeked face. With the simple attire of black jeans, thick brown boots and a puffy yellow jacket. If it were any bigger then she would have been as big as the sun.
"This is a great idea." She exclaimed. "And yes I know how to skate."
I sighed, realizing that there was no way I was going get out of this. Yang had already taken off her boots and was starting to slip on her skates.
Once she had hers on, Yang waved me over.
"Here snow princess I'll help you." She said.
I stepped over and sat down in front of her. Yang scooped up on foot, popped off the little boot and replaced it with a skate. She did the same with the other and set both of our boots next to each other. Yang scooted over to the got her feet on the ice and stood up.
"Okay let's go." She cheered.
I was scooped up with a yelp and set down with a small whimper. My hand shot up to grip Yang's.
'This isn't a good idea. I don't even remember the last time I skated.'
"I'm guessing you haven't practiced in awhile." Yang chuckled.
I nodded.
"That's fine. We'll just take it slow."
Yang pushed off with one foot and we started to glide across the ice. Well, she glided, I was being drug. I was lucky enough to stay on my feet.
"Watch my feet." Yang said.
I did as told and watched her feet. Yang pushed off with the other foot to keep us moving. She did this several times until we were in a nice rhythm. I joined in on the rhythm. Soon everything started to come back to me. I let go of Yang's and went off on my own.
Yang hollowed and cheered my name. A big smile crept up on my lips. A warm, fuzzy feeling swelled up in my chest. I giggled and circled back to Yang. She looked very happy, which was an understatement. A brilliant idea popped into my mind.
Yang's PoV
She zoomed right past me. I flipped around to face Weiss. Her tongue was sticking in a tonting matter.
"Slow poke!" She cried.
A small spark flashed in my chest and I took off after her. She yelped and sped up. I had caught up to her and once I was in arms reach she darted to the left, nearly causing me to fall flat on my face.
"Who taught you how to ice skate? Your drunk uncle?" She giggled
I regained my balanced just in time for Weiss to do a circle around me.'You little Schnee.'
"Nope. I taught myself. No private lessons. No world famous ice skater. Just me, myself, and I." I said with pride, planting my hands on my hips.
Weiss hummed. "Why?"
She started to skate backwards with one leg sticking out. She hopped, switching legs and continued to skate. I raised a brow. 'The princess is pretty good at this.' I though with a bit of humor.
"Back in Patch. There was a pond not too far from our home, so when it froze over during winter. I would go out there and teach myself to pass the time. I taught Ruby as well."
I skated up to Weiss, took her tiny hand into mine and spun her around. She bursted into laughter as we picked up speed.
"Ready!" I cried. "One… Two… THREE!"
I let go, sending Weiss spinning like a top. Apparently Weiss wasn't as steady as I thought and she fell on her rear, giggling uncontrollably. I chuckled, but the happy feeling soon fell away when my eyes landed on the cracks form under Weiss.
"That was amazing!" Weiss cheered.
I held out both hands. "Weiss."
She turned to me. The smile on her face dropped when she saw the concern in my face and looked down. Her eyes widened and whipped her head back up to me. Fear was all I could see in her eyes.
"Y-yang." She whimpered.
"Stay calm Weiss. I'm coming to get ya." I knelt to untie my skates. "Just keep your eyes on me okay princess."
I tossed the skate aside and started to work on the other.
"Yang?"
I whipped my head up. The cracks were spreading and thickening. I groaned fumbling with the laces.
"Yang?!"
Scrambling to take the boot off, I cut my hand. I hissed in pain and reached for Weiss's stretches out hand. The ice cracked and she fell through with a cry.
My finger ghosted over her hand. "Weiss!"
I couldn't see her through the broken ice. 'No, no, NO!' I pulled my jacket off and dived into the icy water.
Weiss PoV
I waved my arms and kicked my legs. My skates were holding me back. The rays of lights flickered around me as the darkness was swallowing me. My lungs were filling with frozen water. The muffled scream of Yang's voice echoed through the water. I could see her shadow on the ice. 'Yang.' I reached out a hand thinking that she was going to reach in and pull me out, but no. The light in my eyes were dimming. The last air bubble slipped from my mouth and my body went limp. Something strong and solid slithered under my arms, wrapped around stomach and up me up before I fell unconscious.
My eyes flew open. I was gasping for air thinking that I was still drowning. But the only thing that is drowning me now was the heat. Piles and piles of blankets and pillows were stacked, wrapped and stuffed around me. Groaning and squirming uncomfortably, I was able to shred off some layers. I propped myself up on some pillows stifling another groan as I moved my stiff limbs. I was back at the dorm room. The bed hanging above me gave it away. The only light that spilled into the room was the crack in the curtains and the bathroom door. I could hear the shower running. Yang.
'She must have pulled me out after I past out.' I thought.
Not far from the from bathroom door was a pile of white and yellow wet clothes. A rosy pink color touched my cheeks knowing that they were my clothes. I ripped the rest of the of blankets off my body. An orange hoodie, that was much too big for me, covered my torso and thighs. I didn't know wether to be relieved or more embarrassed that Yang covered up my modesty. The water was cut off. The clinking of the curtain being pulled open made me feel nervous. I could see the shadow of Yang's legs through the door. She was shuffling back and forth, most likely putting some clothes on. I waited patiently for the door to open. It wasn't for another five minutes before the door opened. Yang stood in the doorway still drying her hair. She had on some nice fluffy orange socks on, black shorts and her orange tank top. Ours eyes met.
She smiled. "Hey."
"Hey… Yang."
"How are ya feeling?"
I was about to answer, but I cut myself off with a sneeze. My head started to feel stuffy.
Yang chuckled. "I think the ice princess has a cold."
I groaned, cupping my head. "Great. The one thing that I don't needy right now."
Yang tossed the towel back in the bathroom, walked over to me and sat down.
"That's not a bad thing." She said throwing her legs up on my bed, wrapping her arm around my shoulder and pulled me close. Head pressed against her chest.
"You get extra attention. You get to stay in bed all. You, also, get to spend more time with yours truly. Won't that be great."
"Yeah… great." I mumbled.
I looked away. A light blush formed on my cheeks.
The fluff is real. Next chapter I'll add in Ruby and Blake and how they react to the little ice princess. It'll most likely be a Christmas special next Monday. See y'all next week and Merry Christmas.
