AN: SORRY FOR THE LONG WAIT XD (To those still reading...)
I don't own Yuri! on Ice :D
It's been a few days since the two skaters saw Viktor's mother. The two are worried that she might do something. Viktor knew his mother very well. She will do anything in her power to get what she wants. The two just continued on with their lives, trying not to be bothered by their current problem.
Yuuri was walking back to their apartment, after buying some groceries. Viktor was currently resting at home, waiting for the said boy. "Hmmm what's taking Yuuri so long…" Before he could get up to get more junk food, the door opened and revealed the black-haired boy. "Yuuri!" Viktor hugged his fiancé and took the bags he was carrying.
"I'm home, Vitya." He gave the bags to the Russian skater and took off his boots before placing them on their shoe rack. He then took off his coat and joined Viktor as the both organized the groceries.
"Vitya, Don't you think… you're mother's been… too quiet?" asked the worried Yuuri.
Viktor hugged him from behind and replied, "I'm thinking about that too, but there's no point in thinking about it. I won't let her hurt you or take you away from me."
"I know that… but I just have this uneasiness eating me from the inside…" Yuuri's head was down and Viktor felt his shaking figure. Viktor hugged him tighter, trying to ease his anxiousness.
After a while, the two sat down at the sofa and turned the CD player on. Viktor just found out that music seemed to help Yuuri a lot and decided to put on some calming music.
Because of Yuuri's unending thoughts about Viktor's mother, he hasn't been performing well during practice. He would fall or slip more often than usual. The Russian skaters couldn't help but worry about Yuuri. They would take him out and treat him to dinner, or take him to someplace where he could get his mind off of things. Yurio would always bring katsudon pirozhkis just to cheer him up. Viktor was happy that everyone was willing to help not only Yuuri, but him as well.
"Oh yeah, Vitya, about the party…" Yuuri suddenly talked, looking at Viktor.
"What about it?"
"I was wondering if we should buy some new shirts?"
"Buy? Didn't we buy a new pair when we attended the party after the GPF? Our current one's are fine." Viktor answered, as he kissed Yuuri's forehead.
"You sure?"
"Yes."
They both went back to their lax positions until they both fell asleep. After almost an hour, Yuuri woke up first, almost as if his body knew that it was already time for supper. He stood up and yawned, rubbing his sleepy eyes and looking down at the sleeping figure of Viktor. He then put the blanket that they were using and wrapped it around Viktor. He went to the kitchen and started to prepare their meal. There was a small window by the sink where he would look at as he washed the dishes. Like the usual, as he was washing some vegetables, he looked through the window. "Hmmm… It's been a while since I moved here… I wonder how everyone is in Japan right now…"
Before he could close the faucet, a loud sound was heard, waking up the sleeping Viktor Nikiforov.
"AH!" He shouted, woken up by surprise but a loud sound. He looked around and saw that the window was cracked, with a hole pierced through it. He noticed that the water was still running from the faucet and became curious. "Yuuri doesn't let the water on without supervision…" He said as he walked towards the sink.
He gasped, eyes widening and his body frozen in place.
H could not believe what he was seeing.
He knelt down, his legs feeling weak as he looked at every part of Yuuri's body. He couldn't do anything nor say anything. He was in shock. He tried standing up and reached for the phone.
"Hello, what's your emergency?" A woman from the other line said after Viktor punched in the emergency hotline.
"M-my… my roommate… is hurt… He's not breathing… he's…" Viktor almost didn't speak a word but he knew he needed to say something so that Yuuri can be saved.
"Okay sir, please calm down okay? Tell us the address and we will send an ambulance." The woman tried her best to calm him down. Viktor's tears won't stop falling down but he tried to tell her the address. After the woman got the complete address, she told him to stay put and not to panic. Viktor nodded and then both hung up the phone. Viktor unconsciously lifted the phone again, ready to call some. He typed in someone's number and then it started to ring.
"Hello?"
"Yurio…."
"Viktor? What do you want?" The irritated boy asked.
"Yuuri's… he's…."
"Oi, what's wrong?" Realizing that Viktor was crying, Yurio turned from a grumpy child to a worried son.
"Yuuri's hurt… and he's not… breath—"
"Oi oi, did you call an ambulance already?!"
"Yes… They're coming… Yurio.. I don't know what to do right now…"
"…"
"Calm the f*ck down! Katsudon wouldn't want you to worry! I'll be there." Yurio scolded Viktor before hanging up the phone. Viktor hung up as well and cradled Yuuri's body.
"Yuuri…"
After a few minutes, the ambulance arrived and hearing the siren, Viktor ran towards the door and opened it for the medic. The team did not waste any time and asked Viktor where Yuuri's body was. He pointed towards the kitchen as the medic team rushed in. They got Yuuri's body on a stretcher and mounted him inside the ambulance. Viktor saw Yurio running towards him and almost didn't make it.
Viktor and Yurio rode the ambulance to the hospital. Yurio knew he wasn't in the condition to talk so he remained quiet. Yurio hugged Viktor tightly, just as much as when Viktor hugged him during the last GPF.
Upon arriving at the hospital, they got off at the emergency area and were told to wait just outside the Emergency Room.
"Now… can you tell me what happened?"
Yuri Plisetsky noticed that Viktor was calmer and started to inquire about the incident. "If you're still not in the mood, then don't say anything."
"I… don't know…"
"…what…?"
"I woke up to a loud sound and just saw Yuuri lying down on the ground… wet with his blood…"
"I… see…"
The two Russians got quiet, not able to speak for a few moments. A nurse came and approached Viktor, asking him about Yuuri's information and about his hospitalization.
Yurio took his phone out as Viktor talked to the nurse, informing his friends about the incident. He told Georgi, Mila, Otabek, Phichit and Yuko.
He got their replies almost immediately after he sent the message. Obviously, everyone asked what happened. Yuko ended up rushing to Yu-topia to tell Yuuri's parents about the incident, causing them to buy tickets to Russia as soon as possible.
After a few hours in the emergency room, Viktor and Yurio got up as the doors opened. Yuuri was peacefully sleeping and the nurses took him to his room. The two followed until they arrived at the room.
"Are you his family?" asked the doctor-in-charge.
"No-o… but I live with him…"
"I see. Well, here's what we know. There was a bullet stuck inside the left part of his neck and thankfully it didn't damage his vocal chords. It'll take a while before he wakes up but I can assure you that he'll be fine. For now, he needs his rest and wait for him to wake up."
"…"
"Th-thanks doc." Yurio answered for Viktor after seeing the older man starting to tear up.
The doctor patted Viktor's back and left the room. Yurio dragged Viktor's weary body towards a chair and had him sit down. He then went to Yuuri's side and spoke under his breath. "Yuuri…"
A few more hours later, Yurio volunteered to go to the apartment to get some things for Viktor and clean up the mess left behind. Viktor just handed him the keys, not looking at the blond boy. He uttered a small 'thank you' before Yurio left the room.
Arriving at the apartment, Yurio opened the doors and opened the lights. He looked around and saw the where Yuuri was shot. He approached the area, the blood starting to dry. He took a small cloth and wet it, before wiping the floor. He cleaned up the broken glass and threw it at the garbage can. After that, he put the veggies and meat inside the refrigerator before it spoils. After cleaning the kitchen, he went to Viktor and Yuuri's room and got some clothes and some toiletries for Viktor. He put everything in a bag and was about to leave when he suddenly heard the door open.
"Oh crap…!" He quietly rushed and went inside Viktor's closet and hid. He felt that there were more than one person in the room and tried his best not to make any sound.
"…cleaned up already…"
"…fine. As long as…. dead…"
Yurio wanted to see who it was but he can't go out right now. When he the door closing, he stealthily opened the closet and walked towards the door. He peeked to see if they really left and after he was sure, he sighed in relief and asked himself, "Who was that…?"
