Chapter 4
The sun started to rise in the Barcelona sky. Its light dancing across the city bringing life to every place it touched. In time it entered the room and shined brightly in Victor's face. He lifted the cover trying to shield his face from the bright intruder. Slowly he awoke from his slumber. As if the light wasn't enough to bother him he was greeted with a pounding sensation in his head. He slowly lifted the covers from his face.
'I swear from this point on I'm going to stop drinking.' Victor thought. He rose from his bed and walked over to the sink to get some water to drink with his aspirin. It wasn't until he swallowed that he took note of his appearance. 'What happened to my clothes?'
After Victor questioned himself he recalled Yuri underneath him withering in ecstasy. He remembered the passionate kisses they shared. He remembered when Yuri said "I love you.", after they had finished making love.
"Yuri!" Victor yelled dashing back into the room. He looked at the beds and saw that Yuri was nowhere to be found. In fact, Yuri's bed looked untouched. Victor searched the room for any sign that Yuri was planning on returning to the hotel. Victor's heart broke when he saw that Yuri, his passport, and his luggage was gone.
'Yuri's not here. Maybe he's downstairs getting ready for our flight back to Japan.' With that thought Victor quickly got dressed and packed his bags before heading downstairs. He saw the other skaters and their coaches in the lobby saying their goodbyes for the time being.
"Hey Victor." Chris said with a smile. "It's about time you got here I was afraid I was going to have to leave without saying goodbye to you."
"Oi Victor where's the piggy? He's going to make you miss your flight if he doesn't hurry down here soon." Yurio said a bit annoyed that Yuri was taking his time.
"Yuri's not here." Victor said softly. Quiet enough to keep from the medias ears but loud enough to catch the other skaters' attention.
"What do you mean he's not here?" Yurio snapped.
"He left last night I presume."
"Did something happen to a family member that he had to leave early?" Otabek asked.
As if on cue Minako and Mari walked into the lobby.
"Hey you guys." Minako said loudly as Mari covered her ears and tightened her eyes in pain.
"Do you really have to be so loud in the morning? How is your head not killing you right now?" Mari whined.
"Years of practice my dear. It'll take a lot more than champagne to get me hungover." Minako said proudly. The two continued their discussion walking out of the lobby not even noticing Yuri's absence.
"Well I guess it's not a family emergency." Chris said.
"No shit Sherlock." Yurio muttered. He looked at victor and saw the concern and heartbreak in his eyes. "Victor are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Victor said his voice sounding anything but fine. "Let's make our way to the cars." He left the group and entered his taxi. Soon everyone was making their way to check in when Victor called out to Yakov.
"What do you need Viktya?"
"Yakov. If it isn't too much to ask. Please be my coach again." Victor said bowing his head. Yakov stayed stunned for a moment before taking a moment to look down at his former student. He could hear the desperation in his voice. Yakov sighed in defeat.
"You'll have to work twice as hard to make it again into the Grand Prix but it isn't impossible."
"Thank you Yakov."
Victor followed Yakov to their gate where several paparazzi waited for them.
"Victor is it true you are coming out of retirement."
"Will we see you again in the next Grand Prix?"
"What does Yuri Katsuki think of your decision?"
The mentioning of his name brought forth pain in Victor's heart. However, he couldn't let his emotions show.
"It is true I will be returning to the ice and as for my former student well he actually supports me in my return." With those words Victor left.
Yurio looked at him and couldn't help but frown when he saw Victors eyes return to the dull lifeless orbs they were a year ago before he had met Yuri.
'Yuri this is what you wanted right? For me to come back to skating. But, how can I when all my heart wants is you.' Victor thought.
The group boarded the flight. Victor gazed out the window thinking about Yuri.
'I hope you're safe. Wherever you may be my Yuri.'
Knock Knock Knock
Yuri stood in front of the door nervously waiting for an answer. It had been so long since he had seen the resident that he started to question if he was at the right house or not. His doubt was pushed to the side when he saw the door open.
"Yuri! Yuri is that really you!?"
"Yeah it's me." Yuri said shyly.
"OH MY GOD." The person jumped forward latching onto Yuri excited to be reunited.
"It's great to see you too Hikari." Yuri said wrapping his arms around the petite girl.
Hikari is Takeshi's younger sister. At age 17 she left the comfort of home to explore the wonders Japan had to offer. She ended up settling in Hida-Takayama after two years of traveling. Now at age 20 she stays at home pursuing her passion creating manga.
"You must be freezing hurry get inside. We have so much to talk about I can't wait for you to tell me everything." Hikari squealed tugging Yuri inside.
'Still as energetic as ever.' He thought smiling to himself.
"Please have a seat while I make us some tea." Hikari ran to her kitchen eager to catch up with her friend. Yuri turned on his phone and sat there waiting for her return. When she finally returned Yuri couldn't help but start to fidget with the end of his scarf.
"So how have you been? The triplets have told me how you've become such a popular skater."
"It's been ok."
"Ok? I wouldn't call winning the Grand Prix Finals as ok. I'd say that I'm having a great time." She saw that no matter what she said Yuri's mood hadn't lightened up with ay enthusiasm. "By the way why are you here? According to Yuko after the Grand Prix you're supposed to return to back home before competing again."
"I kinda wanted to get away." Yuri said holding onto his cup. "Things have gotten complicated and I don't want to be home right now."
"Does your family know you're here?" Hikari asked Yuri shook his head in response. Hikari sighed and grabbed his phone and looked down at his screen.
"Hey you have a lot of missed calls from your parents and even some from Takeshi and Yuko." Hikari said. Soon the phone started to vibrate notifying her that his mother was calling yet again. "I'm going to answer it." She declared.
"Please don't answer it!" Yuri yelled confusing Hikari.
"Why not? It seems like your family is curious as to where you are. You need to talk to them."
"I can't bring myself to talk to them. I can't bring myself to tell them."
"Tell them what?"
"That I'm pregnant." With those words the room became silent. The call was missed and the two young adults were just gazing at each other. Yuri was searching Hikari's face for any anger or judgement but none seemed to appear. Hikari slowly made her way right next to Yuri and placed his head on her shoulder.
"Who's the father?"
"Victor Nikiforov."
"No way!" Hikari said standing up from her previous location. "The ice skater that you've admired since forever!" Hikari yelled before turning silent and then sending a glare at Yuri. "Did he force you to do anything because so help me God I am not afraid to go to jail for you."
"What!" Yuri yelled in shock. "No you got it all wrong. Victor didn't force me to do anything. We were dating well actually we were engaged when I found out."
"Don't tell me." Hikari said her dark over protective aura coming back. "Did he end it with you as soon as you told him!? I swear I'M GOING TO KILL HIM FOR BREAKING MY FRIENDS HEART!" She proclaimed.
"No! Would you please let me finish? Please." Yuri asked. Upon seeing his expression Hikari sighed and sat back down.
"Ok continue." She said in a calm sophisticated manner.
"At the Grand Prix I saw how Victor was so captivated with the other performers I could see it in his eyes how much he wanted to be out there with them. So I ended it without even telling him a thing about the baby. I know it's probably the stupidest thing you've heard but I didn't want to make him feel trapped with me just because I'm pregnant." Yuri said looking down at the ground.
"Yuri…" Hikari whispered. "Can I say something?" Yuri nodded. "Although I don't agree with what you did I understand why you did it. You're more than welcome to stay here with me for as long as you need. I promise I will help you out with your pregnancy as much as possible." Yuri tearfully embraced his friend.
"Thank you so much."
"It's not a problem. However…" She reached for his phone again and extended it to him. "I think you tell your family where you are and that you're safe."
Yuri swallowed with anxiety and nodded.
"Remember no matter what you family and my family love you." Hikari said before removing herself from the living room to give Yuri some privacy.
Yuri sighed and swept left on his screen.
"Hello."
So that was Chapter 4. What do y'all think of Hikari? Thank you all again for your support. Please leave a review and I will try to update as soon as possible.
