Disclaimer: Yes, I own the plot, yes I know Portman is kinda OOC but you know what? It's my story so I can make him as much out of character as I want to!! lol I do own Althea, and I wish I owned Aaron Christopher Lohr Jr. and Dean Portman, but alas, I do not. (Maybe some day...) I also do not own Avani or Gwen, they own the rights to themselves but they have soo nicely offered to loan themselves out to me. Thank you girls :) Please enjoy the story.

Skating Lessons
"Are you kidding me? Dean Portman?" Althea looked at him confused,
"Why would I be kidding?" Aaron shook his head incredulously,
"Dean Portman is only the best left wing defensive hockey player in the world. He's on the Mighty Ducks and he's half of the Bash Brother's duo."
"So that's why he was asking about hockey," Allie said still not quite comprehending the vast seriousness of her actions.
"He asked you about hockey? What did you say?" Aaron asked excitedly, not acting at all like his eighteen years would have suggested.
"I told him that I'd never seen a game, didn't understand the sport and embarrassed myself by saying that you idolized the 'Bush Brothers'." Aaron's jaw dropped.
"You didn't?!" Allie nodded affirmatively,
"I did." Aaron lightly punched his younger sister's arm,
"I can't believe this. You meet and talk with my idol while I'm just randomly skating around the rink? Thea!" Althea smiled thinking about her upcoming "date".
"Aaron, I think we should get home before you have a heart attack." After a few more questions, most of which Allie couldn't answer, Althea managed to get her older brother into her car to go home.
"So, you're meeting him Wednesday? Can I come?!" Aaron begged.
"Sorry, I donÕt think so Aar. 'Sides, you'll be hanging out with Chad and Greg." Aaron let out a disappointed sigh.
"Fine," Allie said, immediately felt guilty although she had no reason to. "I'll ask him if he wants to come over after our lessons to meet you and your weird friends." Aaron reached over and hugged his sister, which was somewhat hard because they were sitting in the car.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you Thea! Have I told you I love you?" Althea shook her head. "Well, I do. You're the best!" Allie laughed. Then her brother decided to ruin it. "What about Evan, your 'boyfriend'? Aren't you supposed to meet him or hang out with him or something?" Althea took her eyes off the road momentarily.
"Aaron, can you please get off that. My gosh, Mom and Dad make me so mad. Don't they think I can handle things myself? I don't need them setting me up with their best friends' son. It's embarrassing that they do't think I can get a date myself." Aaron patted his sister's arm in a reassuring gesture.
"It's not that they think you can't get a date, it's just that Evan's the Beckett's son and, well, you can't get a date!" Aaron let out his chirping laugh and Allie rolled her eyes. (AN: Don't you just love Mush/Aaron's laugh?? *melts into a Spritey puddle*)
~The Next Day~
Allie felt different as she walked down the halls of her high school. She felt more confident and less like everyone was staring at her. Althea saw her friends sitting at a nearby table and quickly joined them.
"Hey Thea," Avani Matterazzo called out to her once she sat down. Allie smiled at her brunette friend. Avi always understood her. "And so I told him that if he was gonna treat me like I was trash than I wasn't going to be his girl. Then I left the movie theater and walked home. Then, would you believe it, he called me and started yelling at me. Yelling at me! After about three seconds of his ranting I just hung up. Then he kept trying to call me! Thank God I have caller ID." Avi exclaimed. Her aqua eyes sparkled as she turned to look at Althea.
Avi was truly quite unique, with her light blue green eyes, shoulder lengthed faned out dark chocolate hair and deeply tanned skin, she could have been a model, or on the cover of a romance novel. Avi was very sympathetic, but had a vicious temper that flared up quite frequently.
"So Thea, what was up with yesterday? I called and the Wicked Witch answered the phone and said you and Aaron were at the skating rink. Since when do you skate?" All eyes at the table were on Althea. Allie looked extremely content as she sighed thinking about her upcoming "date" with Dean on Wednesday. Avi looked at her with mixed interest. She'd never seen Thea with such a dreamy and happy look on her face before.
"Since yesterday," Allie finally answered snapping out of her dreamlike state. Before anyone could respond Althea continued, "I met a guy." The table erupted in shouts.
"Are you serious?!" Gwen, another of Allie's friends shrieked. "You, the one who can't get a date, the one who was convinced she would stay single 'til death? you're seeing a guy?" Allie flushed part in embarrassment but also part in anger.
"Hey! Can we be nice here please? Besides I'm not with him, he's just giving me ice skating lessons." Avani snorted in complete disbelief.
"Skating lessons? Thea could you lie any worse?" Althea's eyes widened at her friend's false presumption.
"Yes, skating lessons. If you don't believe me, why don't you come with me? I'm meeting him on Wednesday, at six at the skating rink. I'll even pick you up." Avi looked doubtful.
"Come on, it'll be your chance to meet him and you can decide for yourself if he's a homicidal maniac or a player." Allie gave her best friend the patented 'puppy dog eyes' look. "Please??"
The brunette rolled her eyes,
"Fine, fine, I'll go with you, but just to make sure this guy, what did you say his name was?" Avi asked.
"I didn't, but it's Dean," Allie said.
"Just to make sure this Dean guy is safe." Althea hugged her friend before the bell rang and they all scurried off to their individual classes.
~After school~
AWW!! Yay for Allie acting all lovestruck lol. Also 3 cheers for Avi (SmartassLeprechaun) who is the best friend you could ever want!! (Doesn't she totally act like it in the fic too, being all protective and stuff :)
Short chap. I know, but it will be continued if I get enough positive feedback. PLEASE REVIEW!! ttyl :)
