Hiding • Scott McCall • Book One

Chapter Five

Victoria was currently lacing up the second black skate boot. Her hair was up in a ponytail and she currently wore a baggy grey hoodie and black skinny jeans along with red fingerless gloves. She wasn't trying to impress anyone so she wasn't bothered considering everyone was busy on their dates.

She sighed before getting up and walking over to the ice rink. Victoria over heard a conversation Allison and Scott were having.
"Since you never skated before, maybe I should give you a few pointers?" Allison asked the Teen Wolf.

Victoria leaned against the side as she continued to listen. "Allison. Not that this is news to you or anything, but you remember the werewolf thing? Super speed, strength and reflexes." Victoria burst into laughter as she stepped onto the ice. Scott glared at the Hybrid.

"Oh Scotty, I said that the first time I skated and I fell on my face, six times." Victoria laughed.

"Well let's see you pro!" Scott challenged.

Victoria started to skate around the ice rink, every once in a while she would do a spin or a certain trick. When she made it back to Scott in Allison she skidded her skates into the ice, flakes of ice hitting Scott in the face. The pair stared at the girl in shock as she grinned at them.

"It was my first training lesson." Victoria shrugged with a smile.

Scott stepped onto the ice, "See this is easy." Right after the words came out of his mouth, Scott fell right onto his face. Victoria burst into fits of laughter as she watched the boy struggle.

Victoria turned to look at Allison, "Can I borrow your boyfriend for a bit?" Allison nodded and smiled.

20 minutes later and Scott was slowly getting it.

"Okay, you got it. You got it. You got -"

"I think I'm getting the hang of it!" Then of course he fell again, hitting his head hard this time. Victoria winced as he groaned.
"You look like you hit your head that time." Victoria said, helping the poor boy up.
"What's that, coach?"

Victoria rolled her eyes, "Yeah you definitely hit your head."

Victoria took Scott's hand and slowly started to skate, Scott struggling a little as his feet moved. Victoria smiled at the boy. Suddenly Scott fell and took Victoria with her. Scott quickly wrapped his arms around Victoria as his back hit the ice, the girl falling on top of him causing both of them to groan in pain.

Victoria lifted her head off Scott's chest to glare at the boy, he sheepishly smiled at her, "Sorry." The pair didn't move for a good three minutes as they stared at each other, slowly each one leaning in.

They quickly snapped out of it as they heard Allison's voice. Victoria scrambled to her feet and quickly skated away from the boy, her face flushed with embarrassment as she went to go sit on the benches to calm down her heart rate.

Scott stared at the girl while lying on the floor sighing. He wasn't just about to kiss her was he? He was with Allison, but for some reason when Scott was around Victoria he felt what he use to feel with Allison.

Love.

Victoria stared at her hands. A million thoughts ran through her head, she wasn't about to kiss him was she? Not only that but he leaned in too. Did that mean something or was it just a moment thing. All Victoria knew was that she was falling for Scott McCall.
