Keeping a tight hold of his hand, Chloe stares down at her feet as though it will make them act according to her wishes. All too aware of how she’s more awkward duckling than graceful swan, her cheeks already begin to burn with a blush. Logically, she knows she’s being too hard on herself - she’s only just gone out onto the ice, for goodness sake.
Before she launches off to do her best to skate around with Connor, she looks out around the rink. For all those who appear to be right at home, there are those who echo her nerves and newness.
No one is paying any attention. No one cares. No need to be so paranoid.
Grip on his hand loosening, leaving their fingers comfortably entwined, she glides off slowly so she can get a feel for it. “I’m not holding you back, am I? You looked like you were ready to spin and leap.”
