“Well, I could, but clean up would be a bitch!” I laugh.
“Where did this idea come from then?”
“I just really loved being on the ice last night, despite the numpty I was there with. I’ve missed it. I miss home.”

“You have seen something!” I exclaim. Jas smiles and hides behind the dregs of her drink.
“Maybe. But it’s time for doga.”
“Ugh. You suck. Fine. I’ll get her some damn skates.” I moan as I get to my feet and beckon Ade over to leave.
“You won’t regret it.”
