It was endearing how hard Ross was trying to stay up and not fall flat on his face. Camila might tease him if he did fall, but she would mostly worry with him falling from so high up since he was over a foot taller than her. The raven-haired girl couldn’t help but smile as they began to slowly skate around with their hands intertwined. “Don’t jinx yourself,” she teased slightly, wishing she could take it back as he suddenly stumbled. Camila’s free hand grabbed his arm to steady him. “Take it easy, Rossy,” she whispered with a grin. “Slow and steady wins the race,” she added. Once he had steadied himself, she slowly started to go again. He would get better as the night went on, she just knew it.

“I don’t know how to go slow!” He countered back with a grin. “I’m fast and furious, baby.” That was a total lie - Ross was actually very lame - but Camila didn’t need to know that, right? He listened to her though and focused on just skating slowly around the ice. Her hands on him was nice and even if he did improve, he might just keep pretending to suck just so she would keep touching him. “Am I impressing you?” He joked but really, he hoped he was. He wanted a second date with her even if she was completely out of his league.

Cami: You're the best, Rossy.

Cami: I'm always nice to you!!!

Cami: Are you sure you have to leave? 🥺

Ross: Does it help if I say I really, really don't want to?

Cami: Damn. You're great for my ego.

Cami: That would be amazing! Are you going to cook for me all week?

Ross: That's what I'm here for, to remind you what a catch you are.

Ross: Oh boy. As long as you're nice to me!

Cami: Yes, please.

Cami: I'm definitely interested in exhausting you. ;) Okay! That sounds yummy!

Ross: I think your sense of humor is sexy. The way you laugh. Your dark eyes. How you pull dumb faces and still look way too attractive for your own good.

Ross: Maybe I can cook instead of us going out?

Cami: Tell me more, tell me more.

Cami: I hope he doesn't exhaust you too much. But I'm sure you two would have fun. Maybe we could have dinner with them one night while you're here.

Ross: Tell you more about what I find sexy about you?

Ross: You could exhaust me too if you want. ;) And yeah, that sounds good. Italian sounds great.

Cami: I know. I'm /very/ smart. We'll have all the time for kissing tomorrow.

Cami: If you do, I'll just tell KJ to take you to the gym or something. That'll give Clara a break too. You boys get so rambunctious. ;)

Ross: So smart. It's sexy.

Ross: Ah, it's been forever since I've been at the gym with the boyo. He'll probably exhaust me but at least I'll leave more pumped than when I came.

Cami: I appreciate you for acknowledging my hotness, but you are just as hot in my eyes. How would I be expected to get anything done when I could be kissing you?

Cami: That's perfect! I was hoping you'd be able to stay for more than just a few days.

Ross: That's a very good point. Why do anything when we could be kissing?

Ross: Hopefully I don't end up getting on your nerves. ;)

Cami: Have you looked in a mirror lately? You're /very/ distracting.

Cami: Figured it was worth a shot. Tomorrow morning works! I'll pick you up at the airport and we can go to breakfast. How long can you stay?

Ross: Have /you/ looked in a mirror lately? I lose against you.

Ross: I can stay until next weekend if that's okay with you.

Cami: I figured I couldn't have you distracting me during my first few days back at work.

Cami: Is it too short notice for you to come tonight? I'm not working tomorrow.

Ross: Me? Distracting? Pft, I don't know what you're talking about.

Ross: Maybe a little but I can be there tomorrow morning.

Camila had almost forgotten just how tall Ross was until she was in his arms. “It’s so good to see you too,” she replied genuinely. Butterflies had taken almost a permanent residency in her stomach since they had planned their date. The raven-haired girl was excited to spend this time with the man in front of her. “I am!” she answered. “I’ll hold your hand all night if you want,” she whispered with a flirty grin. Camila knew he wouldn’t mind if that ended up being the case. She was sure he’d want to prove to her that he had somewhat mastered the skill, but she figured they’d spend most of the night with their fingers intertwined. Taking his hand in hers, she tugged him towards the entrance.

Ross grinned back at her and let Camila lead the way. She was in charge tonight it seemed. After they had gotten their skates and had laced them up, Ross delicately maneuvered himself towards the rink and put one skate out on the ice. He prayed to every deity above that he didn’t end up looking like a complete idiot in front of this gorgeous girl. Pushing himself off and being relieved he didn’t immediately fall flat on his face, Ross began to slowly skate around with Camila’s hand pressed against his. It was a nice feeling. “So far so good,” he joked as they moved around the circle. “Whoa!” He held onto Camila’s hand tighter as he suddenly stumbled and grabbed onto the rink.

Cami: Hey handsome. When are you coming to visit? I miss you... and Vancouver is cold.

Ross: Hey beautiful.

Ross: Whenever you want, I've just been waiting for an invitation. I miss you too.

Camila couldn’t believe how fast the end of the year was approaching, but she was excited to fill her last days of 2021 with new adventures — starting with her date tonight. She had been excited ever since Ross had asked her out before the holidays and butterflies had filled her stomach as soon as she had started her day. The raven-haired girl was mostly excited, if only just a little bit nervous. Stepping out of her Lyft near the entrance to the nightclub that had it’s own ice skating rink, she couldn’t help but grin as she spotted her former cast mate. “Rossy!” she squealed, quickening her pace with her arms open for a hug. 

The sound of his nickname coming from Camila’s lips made Ross smile and he opened his arms in greeting. “Hey Cami,” he hugged her tightly to his chest. She was such a petite thing that he dwarfed her. “It’s so good to see you,” he told her sincerely. He wasn’t going to pretend like he hadn’t been looking forward to this ever since they planned it because playing games and playing it cool was in the past. Cami was a catch, she always had been, and she deserved someone who was excited as all get out to hang out with her. “You ready to do this?” He asked, jerking his thumbs near the entrance. “It’s been a while since I skated...I’m going to try my hardest but you’re definitely going to need to hold my hand for a little bit.” Such a shame, really.

So what is everyone else up to for the new year? Anything fun planned? Any interesting resolutions that haven’t been attempted in the history of the world before? I don’t know what I would want to do for my resolution…but I do know that there is a lot I want to do for this year. How about everyone else?

I’m going up to Miami for this killer New Years party...You know the Jo Bros are gonna put on a good show.

Oh god, I hope so. Seriously, if I can keep going the way he is at his age, it will be a whole miracle. Phil Collins is my idol even though he’s my dad. I mean … I guess? Not really. I wish it was like that, though, honestly. It’d be insanely gorgeous. That’s definitely something to be thankful for, especially with how crazy our schedules can be as actors.

That’s cute. You ever tell him that? He’d probably love to hear it. Have you ever gone to the Wizarding World exhibit thing over there? I bet it’s cool during Christmas.

Aye, true. She couldnae have expected that the boy she fell in love with was a dumbass sheep, eh? I mean… in The Princess Diaries, she is a queen. Love that shit. Love her in everything, honestly.

She couldn’t have. But we’ve all been there, falling in love with people who appear to be somebody else. Agreed. The day she’s gone from us is going to be a sad day indeed, just like with Betty White.

I think the zumba class one is still my best work - can’t believe karate schools have used that image. Nah, it’s a get-paid-once kinda deal, they pay you a hundred bucks and then people pay to use it - that’s how stock photo companies make their money. Yeah, I just got a new place in LA, and the first thing my mom and dad did was go to Target to buy stuff for it. I mean like… it was a day trip to Target, you know?

Well that’s dumb. Especially now that your profile is on the rise, you should get paid every time even a little screenshot of it is used. You need a lawyer? I’ll be your lawyer, get you the money you deserve. I think they went to Target just to go to Target. It’s an experience.
