Y/N's POV

(CRAP! Did we make a wrong turn or something. Why is it taking so long to get back.)

(Ugh! I'm so awkward! I can't believe I just touched his arm like that.)

(GOD, it's like I didn't have any control over my body. Or maybe I'm just that stupid...)

Once we get back to where Chloe, Peter and Chris were, our meeting place near the wooden fence, I feel a slight sense of relief.

Chris is pacing the ground talking to himself and Chloe and Panda are lazily lying on each other, i suspect, looking at pictures on Panda's phone.

"Hey guys." I say, getting their attention.

"Hm– O-oh! You guys are back!" Chris exclaims.

"Heh, yeah. Sorry we took so long." I say, scurrying away from Ice Bear. I pull myself up and onto the creaking fence and sit on it.

"Yeah, what were you two doing~?" Peter jokes. He and Chloe snicker.

I blush and turn away, wishing they would shut up. (NOT IN FRONT OF HIM PETER!!).

"Um, okay!" Chris announces. "Let's get this contest started!"

Chloe and Peter run off somewhere as a team, Chris starts building where he stands and I look around and find a large empty place to start building.

"Okay, how am I going to start this...?"

(Huh... I wonder where Issac went. No! No distractions. I don't want to be buried now. It's going to get dark soon.).

I begin by rolling a small ball of snow with my glove covered hands. After a few minutes, it gets bigger and bigger, heavier and heavier, until its up to my shoulders. I keep doing this until I have several person-sized balls of snow surrounding me.

I fall to the ground with a *crunch*. (How am I sweating on a cold day like today.)

That was exhausting. I close my eyes and start to catch my breath and I lie down.

Suddenly, I hear crunching in the snow.

"Huh? Who's that?" I ask, opening my eyes and sitting up. I see a familiar pair white sneakers and a pair of white jean shorts in front of me.

"Issac? Uh, hey." I stand to my feet and face him. He just stares at me, speaking no words.

"Um... So, have you started on your fort yet?"

He nods twice. "Oh, well then you should go finish it. Chris's fort is looking pretty nice so far." I say, pointing over to where Chris is building.

He nods again. I pause for a second and then tilt my head.

"... Ar-are you already finished?"

He nods once more. My eyes widen.

"Wow. It's only been like, 10 minutes or something." I acknowledge.

(I better hurry up then.)

"Okay, so you're finished. Why are you here then?" I ask him. I mentally slap myself. “N-not that I don't mind your company of course! Hehe…”

(Baka… I'm such an idiot!)

"Issac wants to help." (...Huh?)

I don't know why, but his words make my cheeks warm.

"Oh... Um, it's okay." I refuse, shyly. "It IS a contest after all. I'll be fine. Thanks though."

Issac kind of stays there for a moment before slowly walking away.
