Ice skating- noun
noun: ice skating; noun: figure skating

skating on ice as a sport or pastime. Ice skating became a recognized sport in 1876. Skaters are marked for technical and artistic excellence in performing a series of prescribed patterns and free skating ( figure skating ) or a choreographed series of dance moves ( ice dancing ).

Teddy Mason, an 18 year old boy works at a local ice skating rink known as the 'Ice Palace.' Several people come by daily to skate in their leisure time or to take lessons. He is in charge of teaching children/juveniles the fundamentals on skating and a few techniques.

___ is another young girl who is in need of something to do one summer. She seeks a nice cool place to 'chill out' where she can also physically get exercise. Gyms are completely out of the question for her, simply because her parents are working the majority of the time, and are busy with schedules. Conveniently, a brand new ice rink is located just about a block away from her home. When she finally reaches the rink, she goes onto the ice and is greeted by an overenthusiastic male ice dancer. Although her skills need more work, Teddy has nearly nailed down axel jumps, spins, butterfly jumps, lay back spins, etc. Will his performances warm her heart, or will the temperature of the ice rink only cool it down again?

Okay, because there are two people who wish to join this thread, I'm going to try and be fair and chose the next person who writes 'Fully active' in their next post, simply for the sake of needing someone who will be active. Don;t worry, I'll make another thread for the other person if they would like :) Sorry guys!

Haha, it's fine :) Accepted!

You may start of this thread if you would like to

OOC: Okay :)

IC: A brand new day was brought upon the tiny town of Haven-port. The sun began to rise, and a young boy, Teddy Mason to be exact, had been walking down the streets. The cars and people flashed by, walking to their workplaces. He walked down a few more blocks, ice skates and a navy colored cardigan in hand. Finally, he reached the entrance of the infamous 'Ice Palace,' a public skating rink open to everyone. As he walked in, he greeted some of the workers, and had received a free entrance since he was a member of the ice rink committee. His main job was to skate around and help people around, monitor what was going on. He sat down on a seat just outside the rink and took off both of his shoes, tying on his pure white ice skates on afterwards. Lockers were lined up around the rink, and he placed his shoes in one of them. After applying on his cardigan, he went back to the main desk to pick up his ice skating committee jacket, a giant maroon sweater with his name stitched into it and the words 'Ice Palace Member' on the back. He headed out into the rink, and got onto the ice. Not many people had come so early in the morning, and everyone's breath had come out in puffs of white. He had done laps around the rink, helping little children up whenever they had fallen.

Teddy looked up, the cold nipping on his nose and the tips of his ears, turning them red. He wanted to see the new group of people coming in from the entrance, so he turned his body around and skated backwards, eyes glancing at each person. A young girl had a JV skating sweater on, and she seemed to be doing great. Turning back around, Teddy placed his hands into his pockets. A young girls, around the age of 14, had fallen in front of him and he helped her up, offering her a hand. She took it and got herself up, but she wouldn't let go of Teddy's hand, instead she allowed him to steer her. 'Would you like to hold my hand for a few minutes? To get the hang of it?' He had asked her quietly. 'Yes,' she had answered back, taking a peek at her envious friends and flashing them a smile. Two of her friends stayed close behind them, all the while, Teddy skated, one hand in his pocket and the other holding the girls hand.

Both Teddy and the young juvenile had switched their attentions to the girl twirling and doing numerous butterfly jumps. His eyes lit for a few moments, staring at the girl in the center. Other people had taken notice as well. Teddy looked down at the young girl before letting got of her hand. 'I think you've got the hang of it now. Just call me over if you need anymore help.' The 14 year old nodded her head, and began to chat it up with her over jealous friends. Teddy skated to the center of the rink, sticking out his hand. 'My name's Teddy, I don't think I've ever seen you hear before.' He tilted his head to the side before back skating around her in a slow circle.

Smiling, Teddy followed her in pursuit, his hands seeming to be attached firmly into his pockets. The temperature of the ice rink seemed to drop lower and lower. He caught up to her, curiosity glinting in his eyes. 'If you're new to skating, how can you be so good? You must have at at least a few years in experience to be that advanced.' While she went forward, he stretched his shoulders back.

'Hmm, are you a figure skater or do you do ice dancing?' His questions had striked him as an important one simply because he himself had studied the arts of ice dancing a bit. 'And do you have a partner? That is, if you do ice dancing?' His cold azure gaze had added to the effect of the cold ice rink.

OOC: Hey, I won't be on for a while, I gotta go to the eye doctor for any exam. Sorry! :(

'If it were up to me, I would've slugged my partner.' Teddy let out a light hearted laugh, crinkling his eyes slightly. 'I actually just do ice skating, and I have a partner. She's okay I suppose, but sometimes she lifts her legs up a little too high. I mean, we've competed in competitions since I was about 8, but she needs major work on her spins, they're awful.' Teddy came to sudden halt to help up another young boy before moving on.
