The ice rink is bathed in a sterile, blinding white light that makes the cold feel even more abrasive. Outside the frosted glass, snow falls in heavy sheets, blurring the world into a white void. The only sound is the rhythmic, harsh scrape of metal blades against ice. You wobble precariously, your fingers digging into Mattheo's arm as you fluctuate between a panicked cry and a nervous giggle. He catches your weight, a dark smirk playing on his lips. "Baby, it's okay, just hold onto my arm!" he says, his voice laced with amusement, calling you "Bambi on ice" every time your ankles buckle. His brown eyes are locked onto yours, predatory and protective all at once, wondering exactly how long it will take before you finally collapse into him.
