Yuri glared at the screen of his phone, the glow in his light blue eyes slowly burning a hole in the exterior of the item.
"Bastard, you could at least text back when I'm trying to get a date with you" he grumbled to himself before putting the phone down next to him. The blond looked around slightly, seeing his brother was still moping in the corner about not being able to find the precious raven that clearly meant so much to him.
"Will you ever stop being a baby about this?" Yuri asked Viktor with an annoyed huff, he let himself fall backwards on the bed as he kept his gaze focused on the Russian's face. "Don't be so mean to me" Viktor sobbed, tears running down his face. Yuri could tell that his reaction was fake and gave the older man a harsh glare.
"You only want to be with the cute cinnamon roll you spoke to the other day anyway, you don't love me anymore!" Viktor exclaimed before dramatically charging towards the bathroom with a long whine. Yuri was so done with his brother's behaviour.
He momentarily wondered if kicking the door down would be an inappropriate thing to do under the circumstances but suddenly he found himself realising that it was the corre2ct thing to do. He grumbled under his breathe before standing up to make his way to their bathroom.
"Viktor stop acting like a child and get out of there or I swear that I will knock the damn door down" Yuri complained as he noticed that the handle gave a soft rattle but didn't open. Viktor was on the other side of the door feeling conflicted about his feelings towards what was happening.
He knew that keeping them both stranded in Japan was something selfish and that he really should let his brother go home even if he himself wanted to stay. Unfortunately, he couldn't bring himself to tell his brother that he wanted to be alone, this was probably because he didn't want to, but still he was highly aware of his selfishness.
Yuri was stood on the other side of the door. He pounded on the wood before standing back to examine the situation. "Viktor, why won't you let me in?" Yuri whispered aloud awaiting an answer from the other side of the door. A couple of moments passed and he found the lack of answer upsetting. The blond lifted his hand and lightly hit the door with fist a sad expression over-taking his face as he wondered how their soft, brotherly argument turning into a hate fest.
"Viktor…" Yuri trailed off letting his hand fall to his side. His phone suddenly went off, startling the upset blond as he picked it up from his bed.
He sighed as he opened it up and found a text from the little blond that he wanted to speak to.
'Do you want to visit the shop today?' The words said making Yuri ponder the idea of a moment. It was a flower shop that his friend worked at, and he wasn't even sure if he particularly liked flowers or not. He pondered his response for a moment, his heart quickening as Yuri imagined the face of his little friend.
'Yeah, I will see you soon' his fingers typed out. Yuri glanced at the door once more with a frown. "Viktor, I'm going to visit Minami, please come with me" the blond cried out, tapping lightly on the door hiding his brother. He heard a small noise come from the other side of the wooden frame.
"I really wanted to find him but…" Viktor trailed off, his voice fragile and light as he tried to express his emotions to his usually clueless little brother.
Yuri sighed, he really didn't know how he could help the white-haired man.
"Come with us, we could recruit Minami to help us and he could help spread the word that we are looking for your mysterious love" the grumpy Russian whispered, not wanting to let this go public but willing to do absolutely anything to get his brother out of the room he was locked in.
He wasn't sure exactly why he was shocked when the bathroom door gave a small click indicating that it was unlocked.
"You want me to meet your precious Minami?" Viktor's voice rang out as he charged through the door and picked up his younger brother, spinning him in his arms.
"Oi, you were faking it you bastard" Yuri growled, smacking the older man over the head leaving a small bump in its wake. The taller Russian stuck out his tongue and winked at the younger one.
"Yeah, I'm still upset though, my heart hurts" Viktor dramatically held his chest and put his other hand on his forehead imitating fainting. Yuri was left mumbling to himself about how much he hated his brother who had worried him with his actions as they grabbed their coats in order to leave the house.
Viktor glanced in the mirror before they left.
Light strands of his almost silver hair were sticking out from his usually well styled hair.
His pale skin looked almost ghostly white as it framed his cyan blue eyes perfectly, they glowed with joy at the idea of meeting Minami. He was so happy that his little brother was growing up, yet feeling a tiny piece of loneliness at the idea of it.
The adorable bundle of blond grumpiness and charisma was slowly moving away from him, making Viktor clutch at his chest for real, feeling the pain building up. He put on a large fake smile, his pink lips carrying it perfectly as he moved towards the other so he could usher him out of the front door.
Viktor watched his brother's reactions to things around them. The smaller boy would glare at most of the people who dared to glance in their general direction and he often walked as if he owned the streets. His leopard print hoodie was the most stand out thing about the boy par his light blond locks and beautiful azure eyes.
They were definitely not alike in attitude but occasionally Viktor saw himself in the younger boy. Maybe it was his ideas about skating or just the way that when he oved something he kept it as close as possible, but still he could see it.
Often Viktor found himself getting a large sense of pride weighing on him whenever he saw the magnificent person that Yuri was slowly becoming.
"Why are you looking at me like that, its creepy" Yuri asked, his voice confused and slightly embarrassed. Viktor smiled lightly at the other his mind being brought back into reality.
"I was just thinking about how amazing you are" the older man stated his eyes glowing with pride.
Yuri's cheeks went a bright shade of pink as he heard his brother gush out nonsense about himself. With this came the second large bump on the Russian's head that day as he faked cried about how mean his little brother was to him.
"It serves you right for being weird" the blond bit back his anger showing on his face. Yuri glanced at his phone for a moment with a strange expression making the silver-haired man tilt his head in confusion.
"It's over there" the blond stated his eyes glazing over with a soft look.
"Should we go in and introduce me to the little blond that's stolen your heart then?" Viktor teased he voice ringing with amusement. Yuri didn't react to the other, he simply gave a short, mute nod towards his brother making the other sigh with shock. He smiled at the actions of the shorter Russian, Yuri was growing up…
They entered the flower shop in silence, as the smell of sweet flowers danced around them. Roses of all colours were stacked up in buckets on the walls, their stunning beauty making the walls look perfectly decorated.
The room was smallish with the centre of the shop lined with rows of different flowers all growing perfectly in the open light. Viktor's eyes were wide as he looked around at the tiny fairy-lights shaped as flowers that covered the store and the lovely art-work of hand painted water-coloured paper that held pictures of all types of flowers along with a large mural of a daisy. It was wonderfully chaotic to look at yet, the vines painted on the walls to make them look as it the shop itself was a plant made the place look magical.
"I like it in here too" a small voice shocked them out of their shock as the tiny figure of Minami Kenjiro watched them both with a kind smile.
"You never said that this place was really pretty" Yuri gaped as he continued to allow his eyes to cover the shop. Minami gave a loud laugh at the reaction of his new friend. Viktor decided that he liked the smaller boy as he reached out his hand to greet the new person.
"I'm Yuri's brother Viktor, thanks for looking after my grumpy excuse for a brother" the silver-haired man grinned, allowing his hand to be taken by the younger boy who looked astounded.
"I'm amazed, I've got two of the world's best skaters in my shop, it's awesome!" Minami exclaimed as he rushed into the back to get somebody who he wanted the pair to meet. He forgot to mention that the other friend he had was also a professional skater who helped run the shop in his free time.
Minami excitedly grabbed one of his best friends.
"This is Phichit, he runs the shop with Yuuri and I, he's a skater like you" the smaller boy exclaimed as he pulled the shocked Thai skater out of the back room not allowing him to put down the daffodils he was holding.
"Ah, hello there" the shy man whispered as he glanced at the two world famous skaters in front of him.
"Phichit Chulanont, you competed in the recent tournament, you were really good!" Viktor cried out, happiness laced into his tone of voice. A blush made its way onto the embarrassed Thai man's face as he heard the compliment from one of the best skaters in the world.
"Thank you" he muttered before rushing back into the room he had come from with a squeak. Minami watched with joy as the boy was praised by the Russian, it would be the confidence boost that his friend needed in order to aim higher in his career.
"Minami, do you want to go out after your shift, we could umm, go for dinner or something?" The blond asked before averting his eyes from the boy in front of him who was starting to stare. He let out a joyous giggle before taking one of Yuri's hands.
"I would love to, hey can my friend Yuuri come with us, he really needs to get out of the house" Minami asked shyly as he looked at Viktor and Yuri. Both smiled, realising that the little blond thought the silver-haired man was going with them.
"How about, I keep your friend company and you two go out to eat?" Viktor suggested, his signature smile adorning his features as he looked at the smaller male.
"I don't know if that's a good idea, my friend he's…" Minami began but was cut off by a small crash from the back room.
Minami looked started for a moment before moving to look what was going on, the chatter of voices making him look slightly relieved. Phichit quickly clambered out of the room with a large smile on his face.
"Sorry, I accidently pushed Yuuri into the new boxes" he chucked to the other blond as if it explained everything. Minami rushed into the room with a small laugh before coming out of the room holding the hand of another person who he wanted to introduce the pair to.
He'd been waiting to introduce Yuri to his other friend Yuuri since he met the man, thinking that they were both adorable and wanting them to get along. As soon as he got out of the room he heard a sharp intake of breath and lifted his head to see a gobsmacked looking Viktor and a startled Yuri.
"You, you, you" Viktor began to stutter as he looked amazed at the new person in the room. He shot forward taking the slightly terrified raven into his arms. He pushed Yuuri backwards and looked him in the eyes, a blush covering his cheeks.
"I'm in love with you!" He exclaimed with a large smile as he looked into the eyes of a confused and startled beautiful raven-haired Japanese man named Yuuri Katsuki.
