{hey y’all!! if you wanna be on my taglist please ask! this is kinda short but I hope you enjoy regardless.}
“You’ve never been ice skating?” Sokol asked, looking at his partner with such surprise. The two were having a day off at the safe house, others were out heisting or off God knows where.
“Not exactly,” (Y/N) replied, rubbing the back of their neck a tad bit nervously, “My parents never took me to an ice rink when I was a kid so I guess I really didn’t get that chance.” Sokol shook his head, putting his hand on his head dramatically at the thought of them not ice skating before. “This cannot stand!” Sokol exclaimed, standing up from his seat and outstretching his hand to (Y/N).
“You. Me. Ice rink. Now.”
“What? What if the gang-”
“Nope, none of that. We’re going. This requires full attention.”
(Y/N) rolled their eyes and chuckled. As much as they worried on whether Bain or the Payday gang needed them, Sokol was persistent on teaching them how to ice skate. They didn’t really see it as a big deal, though they had to do it for Sokol. (Y/N) took Sokol’s hand and he lifted them from their seat and out the door.
Sokol had taken (Y/N) to a local ice rink in DC. It wasn’t as nice as Sokol would’ve liked it but, it would do for their first time. Once the two of them were set on ice skates they set out. Though (Y/N) didn’t step out initially, they stared off at the small rink while Sokol skated around. He made it look so easy.
Sokol skated over to them, raising an eyebrow at them.“C’mon don’t tell me you’re scared.” Sokol teased. (Y/N) rolled their eyes and playfully pushed Sokol. “I’d rather not go out and trip thank you very much.” (Y/N) quipped back. Sokol chuckled and took their hands and gently took them out to the rink. “Then let me teach you.”
(Y/N) smiled, a light blush on their face as he helped them skate around the rink slowly. “It’s just like walking really,” Sokol spoke softly, “You’ll get the hang of it I promise.” (Y/N) lightly chuckled as they made their first round around the rink. They only stumbled slightly luckily. Though the second round they nearly fell on their face. Sokol quickly caught them, holding them in his arms and holding them close. He laughed as he led them toward a wall to lean against, still holding them close to his chest. (Y/N) lightly blushed, burying their face in his chest.
“You’re doing good so far love,” Sokol cheerfully said, looking down at his lover, “You’ve barely stumbled.” (Y/N) chuckled nervously, pulling away for a moment to look up at Sokol. “Guess you could call me a natural.” (Y/N) replied with a wink, earning a soft chuckle from Sokol. He leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on their forehead. (Y/N) leaned in to his touch, a small smile forming on their lips.
“You didn’t have to do this, Sokol.”
“I didn’t have to. I just, felt like you deserve to experience something like this y’know?”
(Y/N) leaned against his chest and hummed contently. They were glad he thought that way, wanting to do something nice for them like this. It just made them love him even more.
“Now,” Sokol spoke, pulling away and holding on to the side of (Y/N)’s arms, “Ready to continue to learn the art of skating?”
