But I didnt know that at the time I volunteered to help. Honest!Come on, Nikki! You CANT be that bad!Brandon, listen to me. Im THAT bad! No! Actually, Im WORSE! I seriously expect to get kicked out of the show after we skate today.Brandon blinked his eyes in disbelief.Victoria requires that skaters be prepared to skate, and Im NOT! I can barely stand on the ice, let alone skate on it!Nikki! Are you okay? Whats wrong . . . ? We just sat there in silence as the sheer hopelessness of my situation sank in.Im sorry, Brandon! But I dont know if Im going to be able to earn that money to help Fuzzy Friends.If I DIDNT skate, Fuzzy Friends would close and Im just . . . SO sorry! I really am! Brandon would be moving!270 271'
