"Chris wait up!" a familiar voice said. Chris looked over his shoulder wondering who called his name. He couldn't really tell so he skated off the rink and went over to a bench.
"Gees, I said wait up." the same voice said as it sat next to him. He looked over and saw his Ex girlfriend Nikki.
"Nikki.....what are you doing here?" Chris said out of breath.
"Can't a girl come to a skating rink with out being questioned?" she asked
He just stared at her waiting for an answer.
"Well, actually, I am glad to see you here, see I been waiting to ask you face to face..." Nikki said ignoring the look on his face.
Chris got up, he knew what she was going to say, she did this so many times before. She would ask him out and everything would be great soon she would cheat on him numerous times until he dumped her.
She grabbed him by the arm and pulled him down, then held the sides of his face with her hands and kissed him.
"What the hell is this?" Jesse said as Chris looked up.
Jesse looked really mad and so did Katie who was holding his hand. "Chris, your such a jerk, how could you do this to Kim?" Jesse said
Chris shot Nikki a mean glance and then got up. "Nikki, I told you, we are through forever!" he screamed as he skated away.
Jesse stood there confused but then looked at Nikki when he understood. "Nikki, don't try to mess this one up because it isn't going to work."
Nikki stood up laughing "Oh, please Jesse, you know I get him every time." and with that she sped away.

"That girl is evil!" Jesse told Chris who was sitting on a bench with his head in his hands.
"Jess...what am I going to do?" Chris asked looking up at him helplessly.
"What you mean what are you going to do? Your staying with Kim aren't you?" He said
Chris didn't know what to do, he knew Nikki always got him back one way or the other and he didn't want her bugging Kim.
"I want to really, but you know how Nikki is." Chris said choosing his words carefully.
Just then Kim and Katie came skating over. Kim sat down next to Chris and hugged him. "I heard what happened, I'm so sorry." She said keeping her arms around him. He looked at her and smiled as he leaned his head on hers.
Katie sat next to Jesse and whispered "Wouldn't you love to have something like that?"
He looked at Chris and Kim and nodded.
