Rated for General Audiences [It’s fluffy as marshmallow heck]
Desc: Connie takes Steven out to the park in hopes to teach him how to ice skate and relax for an evening.
"Come on Steven!" Connie tugged her best friend’s arm and lead him down a frosty path. She'd been waiting practically all year to show Steven her favorite park, but ever since it started to snow she was hoping to bring him to the frozen lake and teach him to ice skate. Just in hopes to take their minds off things for a while. Between breaths Steven could hardly keep up with her. "Yeah!...I'm coming!..." Slowing down, Connie turned to him. "Sorry, I'm just really exited to bring you here! It's one of my favorite places to read sometimes" She stroked her hair shyly. "I still can't believe you've never gone ice skating before!"
Nearly a foot of snow passed over as the two tried on their skates and stepped on the lake. Steven built up the courage to step in first. "Ohhkayy....” Steven wobbled nervously as he stepped forward. He felt the ice shatter beneath him as he was caressed by two gentle hands. Connie gazed down at him sweetly "It's okay Steven, I got you." Reflecting her, Steven slowly got back up to his feet and passed throughout the lake, gladly there was no one else there with them because it was kinda embarrassing for him, he felt like he was constantly slipping on butter or something. After a while or so Steven started to get used skating and let go from Connie. "This...actually isn't that bad!" Steven started to twirl a bit while gliding through the lake. "It's actually kinda like dancing!" Blushing a bit, Connie tried to hide her laugh. "Yeah! you're actually pretty good at it so faaaAAH!" Connie slipped and fell down to her knees. "Connie! Are you alright!?" Steven rushed to her side and placed one hand on her back the grabbed her hand with his other. "I- uh think so? Sorry I must've gotten distracted while staring at you, heheh..." Steven repeated her nervous giggle but her was actually concerned. "Are you sure? You look a little cold. Maybe we should sit down for a few moments, if you wanna?" Connie looked up at him intently."Well, it is getting unusually cold out, maybe we should take a break. Are you sure, I'd hate to stop so shortly, you just seemed to get good for a few minutes." With Steven leading, he brought Connie up and twirled her around gently while evacuating. "I'm sure. I'm only happy if you're okay after all." Steven started to tremble a bit as they sat down beside one of the trees.
Tired, Connie snuggled closer up to Steven and was about to fall asleep beside him. Trying to hide his embarrassment Steven opened his backpack from beside him and put his normal boots back on. He looked down at Connie on his shoulder, he just couldn't shake the feeling of sorrow off of him. It looked like she was getting a cold and the illness seemed to wear off on his thoughts.He turned back to his bag, there seemed to be a silver tube like object in there. He picked it up, I don't remember packing a thermos earlier? How did-? Pearl. She must've known Connie and I were going out this evening and snuck in some hot cocoa in case I got cold without me knowing or something. He opened the thermos and took a sip, the coca was still warm and there was a sweet aroma to it. "Uh Connie?" Steven unwrapped his arm from her to wake her up. "Huuh? Steven-? What time is it?" Steven looked up at the sun sinking in the lilac sky. He didn't realize how long they've been with each other. "Oh, wow it's actually late out. I was just gonna see if you wanted some hot coca." He passed the container to her “I'd hate to see you in the cold like this." Grabbing the thermos Connie got up from her slumber and took a quiet sip of the cocoa. "Thank you Steven" Connie passed it back to him and rose from her feet. "Oh,do you think we should head back soon?" Steven took her hand and got up. The snow fell gently between the couple.
Connie felt the world shimmer around her. "Huh...Strange." Connie's voice brightened and she straightened up.
"I- is something wrong?" Steven looked dearly into her eyes.
“No...I feel better actually...Steven, you don't think...did you?" Connie shone her eyes into his.
"I...uh" Steven was too overwhelmed to respond.
In an instant Connie leaned forward and hugged him sweetly and tightly. "Your healing powers! The cocoa must've settled my cold!" Steven couldn't take his eyes from her. He felt his face warm and tingle he was so overjoyed he...couldn't move! "Oh, Steven thank you!" Sparkling his eyes Steven gathered up the courage to gaze back at her. "No problem Connie I just l- love...seeing you happy " He nervously let out a chuckle hoping Connie didn't feel awkward, but between them they already knew what he meant. Connie looked down at him with care.
