DID YOU SEE THE WAY HE LOOKED AT YOU?

DID YOU SEE THE WAY HE LOOKED AT YOU?

Iā€™d never seen him with such a fondness in his eyes. Watching with such focus as I lap around the arena. Stretching tall and lifting legs in preparation of a short routine. His teammates simply talk between each other but he doesnā€™t utter a word.

I see him in the corner of my eye, crossing my legs to gain speed. I let myself glide for a moment before an axel. The music is in my ears, hair fluttering in a ponytail.

The sharp twists and turns never give me whiplash, nor make me dizzy. Itā€™s the sore of my knees and the shouting of my coach that make this much harder than it needs to be.

ā€œSpin god damnit!ā€ She shouts, ā€œYou look like a Floppy Turkey! Use your core not your kneesā€ her hair is neat and straight. Bobbed and sheā€™s wearing a thick coat even as Iā€™m sweating through a tank top.

She doesnā€™t even let me finish before she sees my knees buckling and kicks me off the ice. She sternly marches onward, ā€œget your knee looked at or I wonā€™t let you on the ice. Do not make the same mistakes I didā€

I know she means it from the heart but it still hurts. After giving something your all and still not being good enough. Even though she doesnā€™t say it it still sucks.

I see him again, still watching me as I plop down next to him to put my guards on. ā€œYou were good out there. Really uh delicate on the iceā€

I purse my lips and smile and nod deciding to take my skates off and put in my shoes. ā€œThank you, Iā€™m sorry we took so long. I heard your rink got closed for maintenanceā€ I apologize and make idle conversation with him

ā€œYeah, donā€™t be sorry, the boys werenā€™t to keen but I think we should all be grateful to be skating, right?ā€

I smile and nod, ā€œy/nā€ I introduce myself

ā€œTrevor.. maybe Iā€™ll uh see you aroundā€ he smiles, ā€œoh do you have a pen?ā€

I nod and give it to him, he takes my arm and writes his number on it, ā€œI really hope you donā€™t have a boyfriendā€

ā€œItā€™s a good thing I donā€™t I guessā€
