An Ice Queen for sale (Alice)

Chapter 172 The iden

I smiled.

"Somehow, she is much kinder to Gideon than to me."

"And what Gideon says.?"

"He said I should give time for her, and if I don't like her soon, we can find another person for the role"

Even if I wanted him to ask me about Nor, his reaction was wind somehow.

"Why did you ask me? Didn't you check on her?"

He sighed.

"I be honest, Alice. We checked everything about her, but I'm still searching. That may be because I'm over worrying over the things about you." He sighed again. "You don't have to worry, though. I'm sure there will be nothing."

I did not understand, but I smiled and nodded. Somehow, that was weird how he talked about her. "Stop it, Alice!" londered myself inside my head.

I spent about an hour with them, but I said nothing about my attendance on that TV show. I wanted to tell Gideon first. We mostly discussed my next competition. The whole family wanted to come with me again, which made me thrilled. just before I was about to leave, I received the text message that I was awaiting, Gideon was awake. I said bye to the D'angelis, and 1 drove back home.

Nora's voice made me jump again

*1 just made coffee for Gideon. He is in the living room."

"Thank you." I told her. She did not say hello to me, nothing. She just had this single sentence towards me. I swallowed, and I walked to Gideon

He sat on the sofa, holding his coffee. Apparently, he just tried to wake up. He smiled when he saw me, and I kissed his face before 1 sat next to him. "You look tired." I said..

"I am tired. I think I just have to get used to sleeping in the daytime again."

I held his hand.

"Sleep more."

He shook his head.

*No, I want to spend time with you as well

I nodded. Actually, even if that was selfish, that was the answer that I wanted to hear. We chatted a bit while he drank his coffee, then I joined him to have a shower. It took about an hour again, as we had fun again, of course. After we finished, we just stepped out of the bedroom m when we met No

we met Nora's weird gaze.

"Lunch is ready, but Gideon, I made some breakfast for you if you prefer eating that."

"Yeah, that would be better. I'll eat lunch for dinner." He answered with a smile.

Nora nodded and turned around. We followed her down. I felt had because I ate already in the D'angeli house, and I forgot to tell her. So I tried to eat a few hites. She looked at me questioning when she noticed I did not really eat. I just told her my training was so hard today I do not feel hungry at all. 1 asked her to bring me some sparkling water with ice. She didn't like that at all, but Gideon told me not to worry about it, and he reminded me we employed her

After we huished eating, I told Gidem about the imitation to the TV show Chapter 172 The idea

"I'm sorry, Alice, but I don't understand why you are so excited about it." "What do you mean?" I frowned.

"I mean, I saw many y interviews with you. Why is that so different now?"

I sighed and smiled at him.

"It is different, Gideon. There are always questions to answer after the competitions, but if they invite you to a sports channel, because they want to chat with you, that is different. I bet that is because of the five quads that I jumped." He smiled.

"Could be. That is a new record, isn't it?"

I shook my head. Okay, I knew he only was interested in figure skating because of me.

"Actually, I'm the second figure skater who could land live quads."

He looked at me weirdly.

"Haven't you made any record yet?"

I took a piece of ice from my water, and I threw it at him. He started laughing.

"That doesn't really matter, anyway. New things like that don't count on competitions. There are element and combination expectations for collecting scores. Any new elements or jumps they have no scores yet don't actually count. It makes you famous, so you get more attention and maybe later the jump could be named after you, which I think is the greatest achievement that a figure skater can reach.

"I see."

I looked at him and frowned.

"Are you

you even interested?"

He started laughing out loud.

"Gideon?"

He needed a few seconds to stop laughing.

"What is so funny?" I asked him.

"Just, you explain it to me like I wanted to compete myself. I never even stepped on ice. I love y you, I'm really proud of you, and I'm always amazed when I watch you skate, but that's it."Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Only one sentence caught my attention. He never stepped on ice.

"You are my partner." I stated,

"Yes." He looked at me with questioning eyes.

I smiled.

"I have an idea how we could spend the afternoon.

"Get ready, Gideon!"

He looked at me like he was scared.

"What do you want?"

Chapter 172 The idea

"Trust me."

I stood up, then I went to the bedroom. I changed my clothes to the ones that I usually wear when I train and I found sportswear for Gideon.

"Alice, what are you doing? Don't tell me that..."

He looked at me, appalled.

"Please. You know that skating means a lot to me. I just want you to try."

"Alice, I'm sure I won't be able to move on the ice. Why do you want people to laugh at me?"

I stepped to him, and I held his waist.

"Gideon, I'll be there. And I don't think that anyone would judge you, as everyone started somewhere. I'm planning to go to an open ice skating rink, where normal people are having fun. No one will notice you have never been on the ice." He looked up at the ceiling, and I knew he was hesitating, I caressed his side with my fingertips. He finally looked at me.

I

"Fine, but if I fall, that will be the first and the last time I ever stepped on ice."

I had a broad smile on my face, and I nodded.

"Deal."
