*looks suspiciously at the men in suits*
An 18 year old boy was sitting on a bench, looking at social media. 'Who is this man, he failed spectacularly!' 'Japan will be hiding its face for a while' 'Japan's skater got 6th in the Grand Prix' "I'd like to see these arrogant bitches try doing this shit, I would looove to see how they fared in this stupid crap." "Yuri, stop looking on the internet, it wasn't that bad!" Celestino said ('Yelled,' inner Yuri said). "I got my worst score in the years I've been skating Celestino, how is that not bad?" Celestino looked slightly unnerved, then said, "Go put on your contacts, your eyes are sure to scare people!" Yuri got up without complaint (outwardly) and went to the male restrooms, closing a stall and using his phone as a mirror.
While putting in his first contact, he stabbed his eye, reflex tears popping up, and thanks to his luck, while he was putting in his second contact, someone kicked the stall door, making Yuri a) stab his eye...again and b) make his longish nails scratch the area just below his eye, him placing his hand to make sure to cover up the blood. He unlocked the door, and saw a male Russian, "Also named Yuri, ironically. However his last name's Plitzetski." (i'm not gonna describe him, because you're on the internet, look 'im up). Yuri the Russian got into his face and said, quite loudly if he must say, "Next year I'll be starting my Senior Debut, and the world doesn't need two Yuris, LOSER!"
YURI K. POV
Yuri the Russian then turned and left, making me question if there was anything wrong with Russians. I then happened to glance at my watch, and ran out of the bathroom to go join Celestino again.
While I was talking with Celestino about me retiring, a reporter came up and told me, "Don't retire Katsuki Yuri! Don't give up!" I glared inside while my face remained emotionless and replied, "It is only a discussion, nothing has been decided yet," and I then turned to walk out when I heard someone say "Yuri!"
I turned my head and saw the Grand Prix winner, Victor Nikiforov giving advice to Yuri Plitzeski, who, while looking annoyed, was actually relieved. I watched the two of them, and thought, "Sorry kid, but I'm afraid that I'm the king of the emotionless or pissed off face." Victor turned around, and saw me staring, and, with all his years, "22 years to be exact," Inner me said, smiled 'sweetly' and said "Commemorative photo?"
I was both sickened and amused beyond belief, that I had to keep my mouth shut so I didn't burst out laughing, and just turned around, once more questioning, "Where did the world go wrong with Russians?"
While I was going down the escalator, "Being gone for 5 years and everything changes," I reminisced, taking off the mask on my face before seeing all the pictures of me as I looked during the Grand Prix, I immediately knew, "Minako-Sensei," who popped up 3 seconds later, saying, "Yuuurriiii! Welcome back!" and doing a dance pose with one foot up and her hands holding a sign with my name.
I let a small smile appear on my face, and said, "Thanks. Where's…," Minako-Sensei knew who I was talking about, and also smiled. "Yeah, he's at Yutopia, helping your mom and sister with the cleaning. Said he couldn't handle the cold today. He missed you alot." I had to smile, picturing my brother in all but blood, saying those exact words to me over the phone.
"Well, I know how eager you are to see him, shall we go?" Minako-Sensei said, starting to walk away when an elder man asked, "Yuri Katsuki, may I shake your hand?" I shook his hand, thanking him for his support, and giving him a (fake) smile. There was a child who also wanted to shake my hand, and I did so, almost laughing at how the kid looked so cute at that moment. "Yuri-san, when I get a little big bigger, I'm gonna be just like you!" I gave a real smile to this and said, "Well I better bring up my game, or you may just beat me," causing the kid to smile and run to tell her mother what had happened.
Minako-sensei looked at me, and said, "He's been good for you, huh?" I had to smile, knowing that without my younger 'brother's' help, I would probably still be colder than the ice I skate on.
When Minako entered my house, she said, "Katsuki-San! Kimiko! We're home!" my mother came bounding from the kitchen, being so incredibly happy that I was home, her slightly chubby body bouncing. "Thank you for bringing Yuri home, Minako-chan." Mom could see the confused looks on our faces, and said, "Miko fell asleep, if you're looking for him. Mari braided his hair, and I have to say, Minako if you ever need to go out of town, we'll gladly take him in," Mom then turned to me, "He's in your room Yuri. He was cleaning it up, but fell asleep soon after." "Thanks Mom," I said, giving her a kiss to the cheek, and, after taking off my shoes, went to my room.
As I left I could briefly hear Minako-sensei and Mom, "I swear, Yuri and Miko are attached to the hip." "Minako-chan, you're going to need to explain to them both." "Let me enjoy this for now, alright?" I didn't question it, because I wanted to see Miko more. I opened my bedroom door, and saw that Miko really had cleaned it up, and was now lying on my bed, his phone in hand.
I entered, and closed the door quietly behind me, and looked over to see how much Miko changed while I was gone. His brown hair now had blonde streaks from being outside so long and often, and even in a braid it still reached his hips. He had a shade lighter skin tone than Minako-sensei, and was wearing his standard long sleeved cat shirt with a saying, this time "I'm Purr-fect, Cat You See?" with a black undershirt, seeing as it was see-through, and sweatpants with cats on them. I reached over, and saw the accessory that was recently added, a decorative scarf. It had lilies on them, which I knew was in honor of me, and I felt pretty happy about that, but still felt sad about why the scarf was needed. I walked over and sat on the bed, waking up Miko.
"Yuri! You're back!" Miko's eyes were probably the most interesting thing. He had these beautiful navy blue eyes with hints of silver, purple and a hint of magenta as well as pink. If I had to categorize it, I would say that it looked like the sky at night. "Yeah, and I don't plan on leaving anytime soon, alright?" Miko jumped up on me, smiling and laughing like a 4 year old the 11 years younger age than he really was ( for those of you who don't wanna do math, Miko's 15).
We were catching up, when I realized that the skating rink would probably be closed, and it reminded me of something I wanted to show both Miko, and my childhood friend, Yuko. "Hey Miko?" "Yeah?" I looked over at him, with his hair now in two low ponytails, "Can show you and Yuko something?" Miko looked excited, then said, "Do you have any jackets I can borrow? And a thicker scarf?" I walked over to my closet and grabbed an extra JAPAN Grand Prix jacket as well as a scarf that was sea-green and fluffy.
Miko took off his lily scarf and grabbed the sea-green one, giving me a small glimpse of the thing he hid on his neck. Miko put on the scarf and then placed on the JAPAN jacket, and then turned to me, looking even shorter than his 5 foot 4 inches stature. "I almost forgot, how'd ya do in the Grand Prix?" I shook my head. "Not good. I got last place." Miko then smiled and said, "So? This proves that you're the 6th best skater in the world. There's nothing to be ashamed about. And besides, that was mostly my fault, so we'll share the blame, ok?" I had to smile, "Like usual?" "Like usual."
When Miko and I got to Castle Hatsestu, Yuko, who was looking away, said, "I'm sorry, we're closed, you can come back tomorrow." Miko looked pointedly at me, and I rolled my eyes before I said, "Hey Yuko, can I borrow the rink and some skates really quick?" Yuko turned around fast, and smiled with tears in her eyes. "YURI! You're back! Welcome home! And you need to borrow some of our skates? Would you like a pair Miko?"
I looked at my childhood friend, who was now all grown up, had kids, had gotten married, and was an even bigger Victor Nikiforov fan than ever. Miko answered for me, "Yeah thanks, and you know my size. Oh, and Yuri wanted to show us something. So hurry!" the last part of his sentence was in excitement, which both Yuko and I had to laugh at. "Hey! It's not funny!" Miko then thought back to what had happened, "Okay it was purrty funny. Now come on Yuri, I wanna see what it is so I can skate too!" I grabbed the skates Yuko offered me that was my size while Miko grabbed his and ran for the male locker rooms.
When Yuko and Miko were settled, I started off the skating program. I thought of who I did this program for, and why…
FLASHBACK
A much younger Yuri ,Yuko and Miko were all around, Yuri being 8, Yuko being 10, and Miko being 5, just having his birthday the previous week. "So this is Victor Nickleforall?" Miko asked. "It's not 'NICKLEFORALL it's NIKIFOROV!" Yuko yelled, slipping on the ice and landing on her butt. Miko laughed, but quickly sidestepped when Takeshi tried to ram into him. "Get back here, brat!" he yelled playfully, with Miko quickly speeding away from him, laughing the whole time, before he almost tripped, subconsciously adjusting his skates so he went into the spin of a double toe loop.
All of the kids looked shocked when he landed, before Miko asked, "Yuri? What did I do?" Yuri looked at Miko, his eyes looking almost like a mahogany red, then said, "Well, I think you're a natural to be able to do a double toe loop without even realizing it." Yuko looked excited, Takeshi looked shocked, then happy, but Miko looked confused, "I'm already good with music and ballet, how can I be good at skating too?" Yuri smiled, skating softly over to him, ruffling his shoulder blade length brown hair, before saying, "Who knows?"
Later on that month, Miko did the beginning part of Victor Nikiforov's 'Stay Close To Me', looking so proud of his jumps and step sequence, as well as making Yuko fangirl almost to death. Yuri remembered it and swore, " One day, I'll do this whole song so Miko and Yuko can see how it looks, to be able to see the 'real' thing in front of them."
FLASHBACK DONE
"This is for you two, Miko, Yuko. I hope you enjoyed it." Yuri did the final move, and stopped. At first it was quiet, then, "OH HOLY SHIT YURI THAT WAS AMAZING HOW DID YOU LEARN ALL OF THAT?" and, from Miko, "I did the beginning of that when I was 5...but dear gods that was beautiful...I think I'm gonna cry...yeah, yeah, I'm crying, I'm crying. But dear motherfucking son of a bitch, that was beautiful."
Yuri managed not to blush, but smiled at their reactions. "I took to trying that after the Grand Prix so that I would have something to show you two." Miko and Yuko both smiled, Yuko looking motherlike while Miko's looked like an angel's. "Thank you Yuri, but now it's my turn."
Miko got on the ice and pointed to yuko, who pressed play on the song on Miko's phone. They both recognized it as Senbonzakura-violin version nightcored. Miko started off with both arms in the air then sped of to the left, then quickly entered a triple toe loop, a triple axel, and a triple flip. He then sped to the right, going into a spiral, then an Ina Bauer. He speedily entered in a quadruple salchow, a double spin, a single toe loop, then another quadruple salchow, before ending with his hands in a gun position on both Yuri and Yuko.
Yuko was once again fangirling, while Yuri smiled, tossing a water bottle at Miko, who was breathing heavily. "So, what'd ya think Yuri? Decent?" Yuri smiled and said, "It would put Victor to shame. It would put that crazy blonde Russian to shame as well, neither of them could do what you just did, being the action-pace of it, or who made the song their own." Yuri almost shielded his eyes from how bright Miko's smile was. It was at that moment Axel, Loop, and Lutz popped up, all clapping for Miko's performance. "That was awesome-" "-you gotta teach us that-" "-Miko. It was too perfect!" Yuko tried to get them to calm down, but as soon as they saw Yuri, they were asking him a bunch of questions, which he did his best to answer, but failed once Takeshi came out, all of them just laughing like old times.
The next morning, Yuri answered his phone, and saw both his and Miko's videos on the web, where it had gone viral in a matter of hours. Takeshi called apologizing, but when Miko came in, they both just fell asleep, too tired to worry about anything at that moment.
A couple hours after that, Yuri was going out to help with shoveling the snow with Miko when they, more accurately Miko, were tackled by a poodle. "Wha-what the heck?" Miko asked, trying not to get doggie slobber all over his shirt saying "All you need is love...and a cat" with a picture of a calico chasing a ball of yarn forming a heart. Yuri managed to get the poodle off of Miko, just as he heard, "She came with a foreign guest. He's out in the onsen right now," which had Yuri bounding up to see if it was who he thought it was. Miko followed, keeping up with Yuri's confused attitude and apologizing when they ran into the male onsen, indoors. Yuri stepped out to the outside part of the onsen, and froze in his tracks.
Miko was closing the onsen door before turning around to criticize Yuri for leaving the door open when he saw who was in the onsen and stepped next to Yuri closing his jaw. "Yuri," Victor Nikiforov said, "starting today, I'm going to be your new coach!" At this Victor stood up and Miko said, "Oh holy hell, too much skin!" and covered his eyes, just as Victor said, "and Kimiko, I am going to teach you how to become the best skater you can be!" Miko nodded and said, "Yeah, sure, but," Here Yuri joined him in yelling, "PUT BACK ON YOUR FUCKING TOWEL!"
And Kimiko/Miko is an OC who is basically the replacement of Vicchan. He'll play an important role, but so much as the Victurri ship shall play out. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I'm going to be editing this, and crossing my fingers that it will turn out better and more thought out. Ecila OUT!
