AN- I had no idea that my page breaks weren't going through so I have reformatted chapters that I had written them in, but they didn't appear on fanfiction. This includes chapters 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 14, 16, 19, and 20. It should make them easier to read and I'll try and be more vigilant checking that now…

Thanks to LoveShipper and ADayWithNoLaughterIsADayWasted for their reviews and requests.:)

Return

Practicing the night before Fire and Ice couldn't have gone any worse. I lashed out at Kayla even though it wasn't about her. We awkwardly walk towards her home for the night and I feel horrible for being the cause of this. I pat my pockets to check for my phone so I can tell my mom I'm on the way home. When I come up empty I sigh. "I forgot my phone at the pipe. I'll catch up with you in a minute," I break the awkward silence. She nods and I turn back the short distance to go grab my phone.

Once I've retrieved my phone from the table I'd sat it on I do a short jog back to where Kayla has made it and I overhear a conversation.

"C'mon Kayla, I saw what just happened out there and I know you aren't happy on that team. You should join us tomorrow. I'll have a uniform ready for you," Sebastian says.

Kayla gives him a hard glare and I slow to a stop so I can watch her reaction. "I don't think you heard me right. I will not ever be coming back to Team Swift. I may be irritated with Will right now, but he stopped me because he cares about me and doesn't want me hurt. You threw me off the team because you didn't want to put forth the effort to help me improve. So you know what you can do with the uniform you have for me?" She takes a step towards him and says venomously, "Burn it."

Sebastian's face is the dictionary definition of stunned. He stands there moving his lips, but unable to produce words and soon Kayla storms off in the direction of her home.

I return to my quickened pace and childishly stick my tongue out at the older man when I pass him. Within moments I'm back to Kayla's side and she glances at me before returning her eyes to the ground. Her eyes are hard and angry and I'm feeling incredibly guilty that I'm part of the cause.

I speak quietly. "I'm sorry. You're right. I'm just really worried that you're going to get hurt like me somehow."

"I won't," she says with determination in her voice.

I give her a crooked smile. "I'm sure you won't. It doesn't keep me from being a big bundle of nerves about it," I admit.

She looks over and rolls her eyes. "Trust that I won't Will. I've got a great coach looking out for me." She nudges me with her shoulder and my face burns.

We fall into another lengthy silence before I offer. "Do you want to go back?"

"No way!" She protests.

I look at her confused. "You don't want to try again?"

She looks to me as though I'm crazy. "Not with him. He's insane and I never want to go back."

I burst into laughter. "I meant do you want to go back to the pipe? Not to Team Swift!" I clarify and once the distinction is made she joins me in giggles.

"Oh. Well that sounds fine," she remarks much calmer.

I chuckle. "Are you sure?" I ask in a teasing tone.

She makes a face at me before turning around and heading back the other way. I turn on my heel and follow her. "When am I ever gonna say no to that?"

"Well I didn't know if you were tired or something! It is getting pretty late," I tell her.

She shrugs. "It's the night before Fire and Ice and I need the practice. I want at least a few more runs whether or not I actually land it."

I nod. "Sounds like a plan. Besides, from the way Sebastian makes it sound you're already a real threat without the Cloud 9."

"I still really want to make it! It's a challenge now," she states.

I grin. "You will. You just haven't needed to yet."

"Thanks for coming back with me," Kayla says.

I shrug nonchalant about it all. "It's honestly not a big deal. I'm feeling antsy as well and this is just how you handle stress," I grab her by the shoulders since we've reached our destination. "You've got everything going for you and I'm on your side every step of the way."

"Thanks Will. It means a lot," she leans into me for a hug and I'm surprised at the affection, but wrap my arms around her regardless. When she loosens her grip I do as well, but she's looking into my eyes and I'm struck by how stunning she really looks right now.

I'm not an idiot and I've realized that Kayla is incredibly attractive, but this moment right now it all just falls into place for me. I swear I'm on auto pilot and when our lips meet I know that I'm lost to my instincts because everything is a blissful blur moments after.

Kayla doesn't get her run through, but we do sit under the lights for the next hour talking about nothing and everything. It's incredibly peaceful and it feels like one of the happiest moments of my life.

AN- If you guys notice any mistakes feel free to tell me. I don't edit these because I pretty much always post in the wee hours of the morning my time.

I probably won't come back to change something unless the number of errors in the chapter is large or the error in particular makes it harder to read. That's why I went back and added line breaks to all the chapters in need. This one didn't have any so I don't have to worry this time.

Remember to review! I've had over a thousand views and only 25 reviews! I'm not greedy, but it just seems like I could have a few more!:)
