*Chapter 5 is kind of a stub but it's all I can give you right now. Hope you enjoy :D

They walked through the ivory snow; not even speaking a one word only glances at each other which said more than a million. The cold night was actually more enjoyable than Gene thought it would have been. Small white specks became visible on her coat as the snow rained down from the heavens which were a deep shade of blue. The only noticeable things in the sky were the miniscule points of light which were the stars light years away. It's a new moon tonight Gene noted. Trees nearby had already become bare for the winter and the only their leafless skeletons remained, covered in snow. The faint yellow glow of the lamp light at the corner of the street lead them to their unknown destination.

Finny stopped once they reached the lamp and finally spoke. "The pond should be somewhere over there." He pointed towards the forest on the other side. "Why are we going to a pond? It's probably frozen over."

"You'll see." He said happily. Phineas held her hand as they crossed to the other side and they continued into the forest. He was correct. After passing a couple of Pine and Fir trees the pond was there. I was a rather large pond, the surface was almost glass like, smooth and stable but had sort of an opaque white tint to it.

"So you brought me to a frozen pond…"

"It's not just a pond it was and old outdoors skating rink that Brinker and I found a couple of years ago… We're going to go ice skating."

"No I don't think I can and besides we don't have skates so…"

"Don't worry I brought my skates and Brinker's sister had some that you could borrow." Finny contently answered. He strolled over to a small wooden shed which was concealed by the trees and came back with two pairs of ice skates. Gene tried putting them on and to her surprise they fit.

Phineas glided across the ice effortlessly. "C'mon Gene!" he stretched out his hand beckoning her to join him. Gene struggled to even get on the ice. He went over to her and held her steady and they moved slowly progressively going further towards the center of the pond.

"I've never ice skated before." Gene confessed. "Don't worry I'm here" he whispered to her reassuringly. She held onto him tightly almost digging her nails into his jacket. "See you're doing great." He encouragingly stated. Her cheeks began to turn a pale pink and turned her face away from his. Gene wasn't used to not being able to do things on her own and felt a bit ashamed of having to be helped, but she would never tell Phineas that.

"Hey look at me." He paused "Hey Gene what's wrong?" He held her by her waist and turned her face towards his.

"Nothing's wrong… I'm just a bit cold." She lied. They went back to the edge and he helped her off of the ice and said "If you want to go back we can."

"Well why don't we just walk around a bit more and then go back she suggested. Phineas nodded his head and they remained outside a bit longer.

Stepping through the front doors both Gene and Finny saw that most of the guests had left. Only the messy remnants of what people left behind were visible in the house. Brinker then appeared from the living room and asked "Where did you two go? You missed the best parts."

"Well I'm glad you enjoyed yourself Brink." Finny answered. "I'm going to bed" Gene said tiredly

She went to her room and closed the door. She took off her dress and changed into some night clothes and laid down on the soft inviting bed. Closing her eyes she drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
