Next morning...
Bra was packing her gear up to go to the rink. 'Dende, I can't believe I was so close to him, and dancing with him, too.' Bra went into a whole daydream about, Goten. But her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on her door.
"Who is it?" Bra asked.
" It's Trunks, let me in."
"Fine, what do you want?" Bra asked opening the door.
"Hey, I know that you're going to the rink today, Bra."
"Yeah, so?"
"Well, could I come with you?"
"Why?"
"Well, I don't know. Just to."
"How did you know Pan is coming."
"I have my sources."
Bra laughed. "SO you really did know. You know, onii-chan, sometimes you're just, too stupid!"
"So can I come?"
"Fine."
"Thanks, Bra." And the two headed downstairs to the hover car.

The rink...
"Hey, Bra," Marron and Pan said coming up to their friend.
"Hey, guys."
"Uh, Bra, what are you doing?" Marron asked questioning Bra's odd position.
"That's what I was wondering," Trunks said as Pan walked over to him and sat on his lap.
"I'm stretching so I won't pull a muscle out there."
"Oh." They all replied in unison. "Well, Bra, why don't you show us what you can do?" Pan asked.
"Okay, could you hit that play on that stereo once I get out there, and turn the volume up."
"Okay." Marron said, sitting next to the radio, as far away from the mushy couple as she could get.
"Okay, hit it Marron!" Bra yelled.
Marron pressed play and a song blasted through the speakers of her radio.

Called you on the phone
Said I'm coming through
Hope you're all alone
Cause I got plans for you
We could stay at home, and dance and hang all night
As long as I'm with you doesn't matter what we do

Bra began to warm up around the rink. Just skating around it for awhile, and finally started skating backwards.

Don't ask me where I've been, or what I'm gonna do
Just know that I'm here with you
Don't try to understand, baby there's no mystery
Cause you know how I am

I'm real, what you get is what you see
What you trying to do to me
You want to say you're mine
And be with me all the time
You want to show your love
And you just can't get enough
You're telling all your friends,
She's a bad bad bitch

Bra began to spin the center of the ice, then just broke all out, skating just the way she danced the night before.

You like the way I dress
The way I wear my hair
Show me off to all your friends,
And baby I don't care
Just as long as you, tell them who I am
Tell them I'm the one that made you give a damn

Don't ask me where I've been, or what I'm gonna do
Just know that I'm here with you
Don't try to understand, baby there's no mystery
Cause you know how I am

Bra began to do impressive jumps, although, the landing on her double-axle was a bit shaky, but Bra didn't care. She just wanted to have fun. So she skated not caring what anyone thought about her.

I'm real, what you get is what you see
What you trying to do to me
You want to say you're mine
And be with me all the time
You want to show your love
And you just can't get enough
You're telling all your friends,
She's a bad bad bitch

I'm real, what you get is what you see
What you trying to do to me
You want to say you're mine
And be with me all the time
You want to show your love
And you just can't get enough
You're telling all your friends,
She's a bad bad bitch

"Hey, Marron."
"Huh? Oh, hello, Uub."
"So you guys are watching her skate, huh?"
"Hai. She's excellent."
"Yeah, I know. You should see us skate together. We're incredible."
The words left a pang in her heart. 'Yeah, I guess you guys are perfect with each other. But I love you Uub.' "I'd love to see you two," Marron said smiling fakely.
"Sure, we'll just wait until she's done then."
"Hey, guys." Goten said coming in with Paresu.
"Hey, Goten, Paresu," Uub said.
"Wow, Bra is really good." Goten commented.
"She sure is," Uub said. "I've never seen an amateur skater that good before. I'm not even as good as she is. She's great."
"Yup." Pan agreed as she watched her friend.


I'm real, what you get is what you see
What you trying to do to me
You want to say you're mine

And Bra finished. She skated over to the side of the rink. "I really should work on my landings," Bra said.
"Bra, you were excellent!" Pan said.
"Thanks, Pan."
"I didn't know you could do that, Bra," Goten said.
"Well, I can. And it isn't that easy. Although it's great to have fun like that."
"Well, Bra, why don't we show them a couples dance after Goten and Paresu's lesson?" Uub asked.
"Sure. Well, Goten, Paresu, get your skates on and stretch, because if you don't, you're gonna pull a muscle out there. And plus it won't feel as cold when you get out there."
"Okay." They agreed.
"Hey, Bra?" Marron asked.
"What is it, Marron?" Bra asked.
"I was wondering, could I skate, too? I promise I won't get in your way. I just don't want to stay here, with them." Marron said pointing to Pan and Trunks, who were acting all mushy towards each other.
"Sure, Marron. I'll show you where the skates are."
"Thanks a lot, Bra." Marron said.
"Hey, wait up guys!" Pan called to them. "Can Trunks and I skate, too?" Pan asked.
"You mean make out in the ice rink?" Marron teased.
"Sure, Pan," Bra snickered.
"Then let's go get our skates!" Marron said.
"Marron, what size do you wear?"
"Eight and a half."
"Okay, here." Bra said handing down a pair of skates to Marron.
"What about you, Pan?" Bra asked.
"Eight."
"Here," Bra said handing her friend a pair of skates. "I think Trunks wears a 14," Bra said. "Okay, here they are."
"Trunks, heads up!" Bra said throwing him the skates. (A/N: They have guards on them so it won't slice his arm)
"Thanks, Bra!" he called.
Bra just nodded and headed into the rink with Paresu, Goten, and Uub. "So what should we teach them first, Bra?" Uub asked.
"Well, since both of you can both stand up on the ice now, and glide on the ice, first thing today we're going to teach you is how to skate backwards. As you might have seen in figure skating performances before, you often skate backwards. So, Uub you show Paresu, and I'll show Goten, okay?"
"Sure. Okay, now make sure to often glance behind you, so you don't run into anything," Uub told Paresu.
"Okay, Goten, watch me," Bra said. And she skated backwards for him, ever so graceful about it. "Okay, Goten-kun, you try it."
"Um, I don't think I can do it, B-chan."
"You'll never know unless you try. Now try it! I mean, look, Trunks can even do it!" Bra said rather loudly.
"I heard that!" Trunks yelled at her.
Bra just stuck her tongue out at him. "Come on, you can do it, Goten-kun."
"Okay, I'll try." Goten began to skate backwards, but very slowly.
"Come on, Goten! I know you can do it! Just like roller blades."
'Look at Paresu,' Goten thought. 'She seems so happy, and she's turning out to be so good, too. They must really care about each other.' Goten wasn't looking where he was skating because he was too caught up in his own thought, but he snapped out of it just in time to hear someone say, "Goten-kun, watch where you're skating!" And Goten crashed and landed on top of someone.
"Goten!" The girl growled angrily as she blushed furiously as well.
"Sorry, B-chan. I wasn't really paying attention," he said blushing as well.
"Obviously, Goten. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine," he gritted his teeth at Paresu and Uub, and Bra placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Don't worry about it. I'm sure there's nothing going on." Goten didn't reply. "Okay, well, since I think you get that now, I'll teach you how to spin on ice."
Goten nodded.

Half an hour later...
"Do you feel dizzy this time?" Bra asked as Goten finished his spin.
"No, I feel fine."
"Okay, good. Since you've got that I'm going to show you some jumps. Easy ones of course."
"Alright, but I'm warning you, it'll take me awhile."
"It's okay, I can wait. Okay, now try this." Bra said showing him a simple jump.
"I'll try," Goten said nervously. And amazingly after a few tries he easily got it.
"Great Goten! Now try this," Bra showed him a double axel, followed directly bye a double sow cow. Bra laughed.
"Hey, I could try," Goten said.
"I was just joking, but if you would like to try, don't let me stand in your way," Bra said, sure Goten wouldn't try it. But he did. Goten did a perfect double axel, followed by a triple sow cow, and yet another double axel, which wasn't as well as the first, for the landing was shaky.
"How was that?" Goten asked worriedly. Bra as well as all the others just stood therei n awe.
"Okay, Goten, I know that at sports and stuff like this you're learn very quickly, but this. This is just damn scary!" Bra exclaimed.
"Well, actually I've been practicing."
"Really? With whom?" Bra asked.
"Well, with my mom. She actually knows how to skate."
"Wow. Well, I guess this makes my job much easier."
"Yeah, I guess it will."
"Wow, Goten-kun, I didn't know you could do something like that!" Paresu said skating up to him and hugging him.
"Thanks, Paresu," Goten said smiling happily as she hugged him.
'He loves her,' Bra thought. 'He really does. But I can't let Paresu hurt him! What do I do?'
She felt a hand on her shoulder, and Marron smiled at her. Bra smiled back. "You'll find a way, Bra. Trust me."
"Thanks, Marron."
"No prob."
