"Happy birthday Alfred!" Yao hugs his friend tightly and hands him a present.
"Thanks" The blonde American starts opening it right away. "Wooh thanks Yao, I always wanted to have this videogame"
"I'm glad you like it" The slender Chinese man says happily before joining Francis, Arthur and Romano on the couch. Yao decides to watch the others get drunk and has a coke himself. Francis is telling them everything about his new colleague who he really wants to date when Alfred's boyfriend, Ivan comes in. Yao met Ivan a few times before when hanging out at Alfred's place and he thinks Ivan's a really nice guy, just a little too sweet for Alfred maybe. Alfred told Yao that he met Ivan on a trip to St. Petersburg a few months ago and they decided to live together in the United States. Alfred's a lucky bastard being able to travel a lot because he's a journalist. Ivan doesn't speak English very well and his accent is really cute.
The Chinese man doesn't like to admit it to himself but he's a little jealous because Alfred's in a relationship with Ivan. Ever since he first saw the Russian man he felt attracted to him.
The rest of his friends don't seem to like Ivan very much and warned Alfred several times about the problems they will face in their relationship ; like cultural differences.
"Alfred?Do you want something to drink?" Ivan speaks slowly, hesitantly.. afraid to make a mistake in front of Alfred's friends. Yao watches him wrapping his arms around Alfred's waist, trying to get his attention.
"Yeah sure" Alfred doesn't even look at him and just keeps talking to Francis and Yao immediately feels sorry for Ivan.
When the Russian returns and hands Alfred his drink, he doesn't even thank him for it. Yao even forgets to take part in their conversation as he's too busy watching Ivan.
The tall Russian sits next to Alfred, gently stroking his boyfriend's arm and keeps smiling even though Alfred and the rest are being assholes and ignore him all the time.
"Ivan? Do you like living here ; or do you miss your family back in Russia?" Yao asks ; not only because he's curious but also because he hates the fact that no one speaks to him at all.
"I miss my family but America's a very beautiful country and I love Alfred so much that I don't want to go back to Russia" He answers happily.
Too bad Alfred doesn't love you as much as you love him Yao thinks, feeling very sad for him. He doesn't understand why his friend just won't break up with him if he doesn't like Ivan at all. It's not that Alfred's a bad person, no not at all he's one of Yao's best friends and he likes helping people whenever they need it but he's just not serious enough to start a real relationship, but that's just Yao's opinion, he may be totally wrong maybe Alfred really loves Ivan.
"That's very sweet" Is all he can say.
There are just so different. Alfred's rich and Ivan used to be very poor, that's what Alfred told him. Alfred's always wearing fashionable and expensive clothes while Ivan's always wearing an old sweater. He could go on and on. Why is he interested in their relationship? Both Alfred and Ivan can take care of themselves, they don't need Yao to do that.
"Yao, are you ok?" Francis asks startling Yao.
"Hm? Oh yes I was just thinking about work"
Alfred who looks tired of Ivan constantly touching him asks his boyfriend to go get some more food in the kitchen.
The tall Russian man nods and goes to the kitchen.
"Alfred what do you think about your relationship with Ivan? You don't seem very happy dear" Francis asks.
"I don't know, he's a nice guy but he can be quite annoying being around me all day. "
"But they say Russian men are good in bed! and he's so handsome" Francis laughs.
Yao can't help it but feel jealous upon hearing Francis say he thinks Ivan's handsome. Well, there's no way in denying it.
"Oh he definitely is, but I don't think this is going to work out.. I mean I don't want to stay with him for the rest of my life"
Yao is about to get up and yell at Alfred. How can he just use Ivan like that? The poor guy left his home country hoping for a better life in America with his boyfriend. Alfred should be honest with him.
"Then why don't you tell him?" The Chinese man finally speaks up.
"I will, just not yet. Sending him back to Russia to his awful life would be a little harsh don't you think? If I tell him later he can look back upon this as a nice holiday." They all laugh but Yao doesn't.
"I don't think that's funny guys, we're talking about a person. We're all rich and we shouldn't be laughing about poor people and we definitely shouldn't be using them."
Before Alfred can say anything Ivan enters the room.
"Why is everyone serious?" He asks, smiling like always.
"Just some important matters you don't understand, sweetheart"
Yao's shooting him an angry glare but Alfred ignores him.
...
It's two weeks after Alfred's birthday and Yao's on his way to his best friend's house because he really wants to make it up to him, they didn't get into a real fight but it doesn't feel right either.
He's surprised when Ivan answers the door; a blush immediately spreading on his face.
"Privjet Yao" There's something different about Ivan today.. he's not smiling , he looks rather sad.
"Hello Ivan"
"Come in" The Chinese men follows him inside and almost trips over a few bags.
"What are you doing Ivan?" He asks curiously.
"I'm packing, I have to go"
"Why? Where are you going? and where's Alfred?" Ivan's getting on his knees, putting some more clothes in one of the bags.
"Alfred's not home, I have to be gone when he returns which is in few hours. But is difficult, I don't know how. I don't have plane tickets" He looks really desperate.
"Really? Wait just put that down, we'll think about something don't worry. "
Ivan gets up and Yao leads him to the couch. Feeling a little awkward when taking the taller man's hand.
"Would you like to tell me what happened?"
"I must have done something wrong, I don't know"
