In a competition like any other, the skaters were warming up before the start of the event where they will decide who would be the big winner of this competition.
In one part of the track was a famous Kazakh, known as "The light of Kazakhstan", practicing his jumps that came out impeccable and some not so good for landing. Although it was seen by a Canadian who did not hesitate to pay attention to that boy.
The previous competition had been a chaos for the Kazakh and the Canadian, since since Zinov Kuznetsov won the gold medal in the previous Grand Prix it was enough for a Canadian to strive like other skaters but also in that victory something happened that believed a lie , his girlfriend left him for not having won the gold medal and recalled that Aibek Kenes did not do so well at that time, the Russian Zinov had put him aside after the victory, making their friendship more distant, now they were like two souls wandering with no intention of looking for something special or someone special.
Out of his reverie, the Canadian recovered when he saw the boy fall to the ground suddenly, he had fallen before a jump that almost cost him his ankle, I do not doubt it and his body approached to help him, carefully holding his arms to lift him . he though received only a small "Thank you" somewhat low and left a lost Canadian with his heart pounding euphoric.
Jake didn't understand the feeling he was having at the time, but he didn't hesitate to talk to him.
—"Hey! Stop!" - The one with the black eyes approached with a single slip and took the Kazakh arm by the arm, who looked at him over his shoulder with a serious expression, which one could read that he would kill whoever touched him by making him swallow dry. .
—"Yeah ... I just wanted to ... buy you a coffee ... What do you say?"- He stuttered nervously but the little blush on the shorter man's cheeks made him think his proposal had worked.
He thought about it for a moment, he was not convinced that they were for a coffee but then in a deep sigh he looked at him.
-"Come on"- and with that he left while he put on the knife guard of his skates, waiting for the Canadian to go to the locker room to change, after all there were a few hours left for the event.
On the other hand we have a Canadian who almost gave him cardiac arrest due to the acceptance of the opposite, without further ado he rushed and followed him from behind where he noticed the difference in height, he was taller than the Kazakh and that caused him total tenderness .
—"You are Jake Jayden Brown, right?"- He asked suddenly in that soft voice different from the one he always used, which was serious.
—"That same one!" -She was glad to have met him in one respect.
—"I am the Ice King!" The great Jake Jayden! - I knew it would be very narcissistic but I couldn't help it at the time, although the black-eyed one found it somewhat childish.
After that little presentation they had come to the locker room where they realized that their lockers were together and they had not even noticed.
—"It seems that we are neighbors, my neighbor Bek"- Yes, Jake had come a long way to call him with that recognized nickname of the named.
—"And without realizing it"- was his short answer and when he opened his locker he showed a small teddy bear inside, when he took out his backpack he had to move the bear, obviously the Canadian had seen it.
~ Jake's thoughts ~
I can't believe I'm talking to this guy! It's an iceberg but I ... I just want to meet it! I feel so comfortable with him, as if I have known him for a long time, although I am not quite sure.
I secretly saw his reactions, and that little pout almost invisible if you didn't pay attention to him, I just saw how he opened his locker showing that cute furry bear, maybe I should give him something ... Don't wait! You're going too fast and you don't even know him that much! Calm down Jake!
My thoughts devoured me completely and I did not know what to do, for now I would wait for the What would happen? at the time of having that coffee ... I hoped nothing would get worse.

~ Bek narrates ~
Who would say that I would be with someone like him? Anyway, some company wouldn't be bad but ... Why him?
My thoughts overwhelmed me, but I couldn't just reject him when he told him to leave, I would just relax.
I sighed before opening my locker, although I never believed that someone outside of me would touch my precious teddy bear.
I remember when I got it, I was on the track and teddy bears were always raining on me but when one hit me in the face I managed to hold it in my hands, a cute medium-sized bear keychain with a sweater knitted between blue, red in a triangular shape or circular His little figures so cute, a beautiful bear with little nails, his fingerprints so cute but one detail was present was two "JJ" together but then another bear fell on my face I laughed softly but I ended up skating and going to the locker room I felt happy, but the second bear had an "A" and a "K" embroidered on it. I thought it was my name, even so I kept them in my backpack and have always carried them with me.
Something made me come back from my memories and it was to see an arm in slow motion and in that hand my little bear that was still sitting there, with so much care.
-Hears! Give me back my bear! - I did not know if it was the heat of the moment or what but I was a little flushed and that was not right, I realized when I saw a blush out of the corner of my eye.
It seemed that the poor Kazakh had been disturbed but not intentionally since Jake was admiring the bear that for some strange reason was very familiar to him, he carefully brushed every detail, he saw it well and kept holding it in his hands appreciating it more. .
