Jace

My hand tightens on the railing as I cling for dear life. “Okay, I might have misjudged the activity.”

Thalia grins as she skates backward toward me, and when my legs go in opposite directions, she bursts into fits of laughter. I grind my jaw. This isn’t going as I’d hoped.

When I booked the skating rink for us, I had a grand plan in place, but all that has been fucked up now that I can barely move on the damn ice.

“Would you like me to help you?” She beams.

Jesus fucking Christ, my girl wants to help me skate, how fucking ridiculous. I scrub a hand over my head.

“Nope. I’m good.” I shake my head and refuse to look at her when she giggles.

Slowly bringing my feet together, I take a deep breath, then I let go of the railing and push one foot out. My ass hits the ice with a painful thud, and Thalia bends over, laughing.

“You find this fucking funny?” I throw my glove in her direction like a petulant child.

“I do,” she admits, her blue eyes twinkling.

“Try holding onto the railing, Jace. You have to learn to walk before you can run.”

I glare at her. Is she fucking serious? “You have to learn to walk before you can run.” I mimic her in a childish tone that has her throwing her head back and chuckling.

The way her hair blows in the breeze and the way her breath comes out into the icy air is captivating, she’s so goddamn beautiful, so goddamn mine.

“How the hell are you so good at this?”

“I used to roller skate up and down the sidewalk with Dougie Schooler while you were mowing lawns.” My lip turns up in a sneer; that little prick was trying to make a move on my girl.

“Great, another guy on my hit list. I’ll break his fucking legs; see how good he is at skating then.”

Thalia chokes on a laugh like I’m kidding. I’m not.

Then her face turns serious. “I’ve taken Harper skating a few times. We could take her together?”

My chest bursts with pride at the mere mention of our daughter, and with a steely determination, I grip hold of the banister with both hands, dig my toes into the ice, and pull myself up to my feet.

“You’re doing it, Jace,” Thalia hollers, and I’m about to open my mouth again to tell her to chill the fuck out, I’m only standing, but the lights dim as planned, and I huff as a solo light illuminates the center of the ice rink. Thalia turns her head over her shoulder, and her eyebrows rise.

“We’re supposed to be over there right now.” I throw my hand out toward the light and wobble in the process.

“Well, what are you waiting for?” She turns and glides over toward the center of the rink.

After a few failed attempts at pushing myself forward, I give up, and like a fucking loser, I shuffle my ass over to the center of the rink while she stands biting into her lip to refrain from laughing.
