Raivis stared out into the frozen lake where numerous people were having fun skating and gulped. He'd never ice skated before, and was nervous to go out there and try. He could easily fall and break a bone, or cause thin ice to break and wind up drowning. He felt his feet weighed down by the skates as if they were a hundred pounds.
"I don't know about this..."
"Don't worry about it," Ivan said as he placed a hand on the boy's shoulder, "I'll show you how to do it."
Raivis was ready to faint from fear, and having Ivan's hand on him did not help at all.He knew there was no way out of this. He wished he already knew how to do it like the other two nations. But no. Now he was stuck with a crazy man that was going to teach him. If he messed up or tried to run, he could be punished for it. He didn't want that so he let Ivan take his hand and drag out out into the lake.
He shook nervously as he tried to balance himself so he wouldn't fall. He stopped shaking when he saw Ivan frown at him. Was he doing something wrong this early? Suddenly he was pulled forward so that Ivan's arms latched onto his. He tried not to blush from the closeness, and looked down at his feet.
"Relax, Latvia. I won't let you fall. Just slowly drag your feet as though you're walking," Ivan instructed.
Raivis did just that and started to move his feet. He was amazed that he hadn't fallen so far. Left, right, left, right, le- His skate tipped and he started to womble. As Ivan had promised, he held the boy up and made sure he didn't fall as he adjusted himself. He continued to carefully move his feet, and the next thing he knew he was on the other side of the lake.
"See? I told you you could do it," Ivan praised with a kind smile.
Raivis nodded a bit and mumbled a 'Yes' in response. They spent the rest of the day repeating that process, and eventually he went from Ivan holding his arm to holding his hand.
Maybe he wasn't so bad after all. --- Hope Anon likes. :3
