River POV
I am ecstatic it's my birthday today and I get to go ice skating dad said my presents are at the lake I can't wait this will be so much fun after half an hour of walking we get to the lake I put on my river blue skates orange jacket leggings and shorts then skate onto the lake
"come on you slow pokes" they skate around me we do spins and leaps it's a lot of fun but then
crack
"ugh what was that?"
they shrug in confusion
CRACK
I only have a couple of seconds to look down before I fall through the ice unfortunately for me it seals over very quickly the water starts to feel warm to me but then my dad and brother rescue me they bring me to my room my skates go into a box never to be seen again and my clothes go in front of the fire that Janus lit they both cuddle me after half an hour dad goes downstairs to make soup he comes back with a bowl
"eat it'll make you feel better" I take a sip
"ugh gross what is this"
"tomato and pecan soup I made it with my own blood sweat and tears so I hope you enjoy it" sighs and finishes it for the next week I am bed ridden due to hypothermia and then the common cold and I have to have the soup everyday
"dad I'm better my fever is gone I can breathe and my throat isn't sore so please may I leave this bed"
"fine as long as you don't go to the lake"
