You and Ponyboy had been window shopping all day throughout the shopping outlets all around Tulsa. Of course, you guys didn’t buy anything with the little money the two of you had put together. Which caused suspicious looks to fall between the two of you from Socs and older people. Nobody trusted Hoods like you.

As the daylight hours started to close and the Christmas lights and wreaths hung around town started to twinkle with festivity. You two started to make your way towards the center of town, going home to the east side. Suddenly your eyes drifted off to a nearby park. You caught sight of people on ice skates! Apparently, there was a ice rink that opened up for the winter seasons. Since the two of you rarely passed by here…you never noticed.

After much contemplation, and a little bit of…begging. Ponyboy finally agreed to visit the ice rink with you. Only for about an hour though.

The two of you tied on your skates and wobbled over to the ice, a huge smile on your face before you stepped on and immediately fell.

“How could you slip so easily?” Ponyboy chuckled loudly, holding onto the wall as he tried to get onto the ice…letting go and standing still for a moment “Hey…this ain’t so hard-augh!” Ponyboy started to loose control of his skates and fell on his arse only a second later.
