Part of his slow lingering was in hesitation to try out skating despite his excitement to do it, and the other was so he could watch Arya. There was no need to rush any moment he shared with her.
When he did finally reach her, he plopped his skates in the snow beside her before squatting in front of her. "Ah give it another week. Don't want the memories of winter to slip away too quickly, do we?" Picking up her feet, he rested them on top of his thighs so that they wouldn't get wet. It was then a process of putting the skates on without slashing himself open and tying them up all snugly for her.
"Who says they have to slip away?" She teased almost cryptically. Watching as he picked up her feet, she almost giggled as he began to put her skates on for her and tying them. Reaching into her Mokeskin pouch, she pulled out the camera she'd gotten a few years ago, and waved it at him with a grin.
"I'm gonna take a few pictures so we'll never forget the memories of winter."
Or the memories of their last term together. Plus she was working on stuff and needed pictures to finish it. She wiggled her toes inside the boot of her white skates.
