hums quietly as he walked into the room. He saw the other and smiled a bit, walking over towards the ice. "Hej."

hears someone speak, looks over and sees Søren. "Hi," skates closer to the wall. "You're the guy who sleeps through earth science."

nods. "Yep. That'd be me. And I asuume ye're the one who liked to wear rolling skates in class, ja?"

looks down at the ice. "That was me." still very sore about her skates being taken away.

frowns a bit and leans against the wall. "So, ye like the ice just like Berwald I guess."

"Just like Berwald? Try I love the ice." does a tight figure 8.

chuckles a bit, watching her. "Ja, I was actually expecting to find him here... but he must be asleep somewhere. Or in class."

"I've never seen him here around this time. Place is usually empty right now." taps the puck back forth with her stick a little. skating_

backwards slowly.

nods. "Oh. Ah well, doesn't matter. Ye're here, so I can at least watch."

looks at him. "I'm just skating around by myself." looks down at the ice. "Did you report that prof for throwing an egg at you?"

shakes his head. "Nej. He's just playin' around. Besides, I shouldn't have been sleeping."

"He has a weird way of playing around." would have clobbered the jerk if he threw a raw egg at her.

shrugs. "Each teach their own I guess. I'm not bothered by it really, stuff like that happens normally to me."

"I guess you could try to stay awake in class, unless you like that sort of attention."

sighs. "I try to get enough sleep. But it's my damn dormmates fault."

"What are your dormmates doing? Have you complained to the RA?"

sighs again. "They're just asses. Drinking and drugs almost everyday, making it impossible for me to study." Shakes his head a

bit. "Ah, nej... I don't want to bother anyone about this."

"If they are doing something illegal, they should be reported. Call the police."

shrugs. "I don't want to be a kill joy. It's their lives they're ruining anyways."

stops skating and looks at them. "And yours. You're paying to stay in that dorm aren't you? If you can't use it what's the point of even_

saying you live there?"

shrugs. "I don't really care... besides, Berwald said if I really need to I can use his room to study and stuff."

"What dorm do you live in?" dribbles the puck and skates in a circle.

watches her. "North dorm. Why?"

"Why don't you request a transfer to a quieter dorm. North dorm is full of partiers. Everyone knows that."

chuckles and scratches the back of his head. "Ja, I know... but I do like to party too. It's just my room I don't like..."

"Then get a different room." slaps the puck from center ice and puts it into the net.

claps a little. "Maybe."

"What do you have against sleep?" spins around on her skates a few times before skating over to the goal.

sighs. "A few things... but that doesn't matter. I'll just chill with Berwald on nights where I gotta be up early."

skates back dribbling the puck with her stick. "I would still complain about the partying in your dorm."

nods. "I might..." Shrugs. "Ye enjoying the ice?"

"Always." skates backwards dribbling the puck.

smiles a little. "Yeah... it's pretty fun. I enjoyed myself when Berwald and I played a game."

"I don't know what I would do if I couldn't play hockey."

chuckles a bit. "Why do ye like it so much?"

"When I'm skating, I feel free. Also, the game ... I like the competition, always working to improve. Be the best hockey player I can be."

nods. "Seems like a good reason. It's cool that ye have a goal in life."

"I want to go pro." skates up to the wall. "What are your plans after college?"

shrugs and looks at her. "Get some kind of medical job in the big city. Ye know, save some lives and what not."

"A doctor. Good luck staying unmarried." chuckles.

raises his brow a bit. "What do ye mean by that?"

"Gold diggers love marrying doctors." smiles at him. "Just when you finish off paying for med school and get your own practice ... they'll_

be all over you."

laughs. "I dunno. Maybe. I don't plan on getting married for a while though."

"Just saying. You're not bad looking ... when you don't have bags under your eyes." skates around the circle on center ice.

blushes slightly and scratches the back of his head. "Really? Guess I should take better care of myself, ja?" Chuckles agetr.

*after

"Ja, you and Berwald say that word a lot." skates over to the puck, takes to the goal and slams it into the net just as she turns away.

smirks. "I bet..." He leans more on the wall. "Do ye want a buddy to play with, or do ye enjoy doin' that alone?"

skates back, looks at him. "You want to take me on? Provided you can stay awake."

rolls his eyes. "I'm awake now. I won't fall asleep. And I know I'm not nearly as good as ye, but I do enjoy playing."

"Fine, get suited up, I'll be waiting." winks at him, then sprints away with the puck across the ice.

smirks and goes to where Berwald took him last time and put on some spare equipment. Once he got everything he put his helmet on

and grabbed his stick, walking out and onto the ice.

skates over to where she left her helmet, putting it on her head. "Need time to warm up?" looks at him as he comes on the ice.

shakes his head. "Nej, I doubt that'll make me any better." He laughs, skating around a bit before going to the middle.

shrugs. "Okay." skates to the center ice, gets down to take the puck, looking him in the eye. "Ready?"

smiles and nods. "Ready." Gets his stick ready and waits.

her goal.

tries to skate after her but finds it too late and laughs as it gets in.

grins when it easily slides into the net, skates around the net and comes back again. "You're not bad, have you played before?"

nods, getting the puck out of the net. "Ja, I use to play back where I live."

"How come you don't play now?"

shrugs. "I had to stop... focus on my studies to get into University..." Sighs a bit as he plays a little with the puck.

" You stopped? How awful!" Would rather die then not play hockey.

chuckles a little. "Only because I had to. I really enjoyed it." Starts skating again, passing the puck back and forth between him.

easily steals the puck from him, skating away. "I can't imagine *having* to stop playing hockey!"

laughs, quickly catching up to her. "Did yer parents mind ye playing?" Tries to take the puck back.

to catch up with it.

pushes himself to match her at first, then surpass her. "Ah, so ye learned how to play from yer dad I assume?" Hits the puck away from

her and taps it towards himself.

"Oh yes!" turns sharply and intercepts the puck. "He didn't go easy on me either, just because I'm a girl."

smiles at her, going after the puck again. "That's good then. Means he taught ye how it would be in real life. No special treatment

or anything."

"That's right! No quarter taken ..." slaps the puck toward her goal. "Or given!"

hisses a bit as he's checked, and skates up beside her. He watches the puck, trying to find the best time to take it from her.

not about to let him take it from her so easily. Uses her skills with her stick to keep it away from him as she skates toward her goal.

huffs a bit and skates up to his goal, defending it. He wasn't going to let her get another goal just yet.

smiles as she skates to one side of the net, then quickly turns and chips the puck to go over his shoulder and hit high inside the net on _

the opposite side.

almost tricked by her, but barely manages to hit it away. He sighed that he diverted it and stole the puck, going to the opposite

end of the ice.
