As another hot day in Hatsetsu came upon the small town, Yuuri and Victor laid on the floor thinking of ideas. "Pool?"

Yuuri sighed. "This is Japan, no one has a pool. Don't even THINK about the hot springs." They sat in silence for a moment, before Yuuri Sprung up from the floor. "Water guns! I think I have some from 2 years ago! C'mon!" Yuuri beckoned Victor to a supply closet, then pulled two water guns out of the pile.

Victor pulled on a competitive face. "You have four minutes to hide." Victor chuckled. They both sprinted off into opposite directions, seeing who could find the best hiding spot.

Victor looked down at his Rolex and realized four minutes had passed. He sneakily crept out of the storage closet. He had a deviant smirk on his face as he slipped swiftly into the hot springs. He slithered out to the outdoor hot springs and spotted a mop of black, messy, hair.

He stood in a daze, as Yuuri swayed towards him. Yuuri placed a hand on Victor's cheek and stroked his face. Victor then looked down to see Yuuri SHIRTLESS. He was too busy having an absolute nosebleed to notice the gun Yuuri was pulling from behind his back.

"Kachow," Yuuri whispered as he pulled the trigger of his water gun.

Victor accepted defeat as the stream of tap water splashed his face. "Totally worth seeing you half-naked," Victor mused with a wink. "I got an idea while you were hiding. Let's get slushies!"

Yuuri beamed. He loves slushies since he was a kid. "Let's go!"

They both ran out of the hot springs, Yuuri stumbling to put his shirt on. Yuuri and Victor threw on their shoes and raced into the street. Cars honked and drivers flipped them off, but they were having a great time. Victor glanced at Yuuri and saw the glimmer of pure bliss in his eyes.

It was at that moment that Victor realized his luck for having Yuuri to himself. This man, this beautiful man, could've been with someone else in a different life. Victor pulled Yuuri out of the street and kissed him. Hard.

Yuuri was in a daze. "Vi-Victor, what happened?" He stuttered out, face flushed. "Were you hurt?"

Yuuri checked Victor's arms and legs for scrapes and cuts, only to be patted on the head. "Yuuri, just know that I love you so much and I don't want anybody to have you except me," Yuuri was silenced by Victor's (MARRIAGE VOWS LMAO) loving oath.

Yuuri pulled Victor in for a hug. "Don't ever think that I'd leave you," Yuuri spoke. "Now let's go get some slushies." Yuuri dragged Victor by the hand to the closest 7/11. Yuuri ordered two cherry slurpees. They were quickly handed their cups and they went to the back of the store to fill their cups with the magical 7/11 slush. (I DON'T CARE IF 7/11 ISN'T IN JAPAN)

Victor quickly finished his and stole sips of Yuuri's while they walked back to the hot springs. "Victor! You already drank your slurpee!" Yuuri whined. Victor laughed and took another sip. "I can't believe you," Yuuri giggled.

Victor laughed along with Yuuri. "I've been thinking for a while, Yuuri, and," Victor turned to face Yuuri and held his hand. "I want you to live in Russia with me."

Yuuri choked on his cherry slurpee. "What?" He hacked out.

"Yuuri, I love you, a lot. So I want to spend my life with you in Russia," Victor coughed and kneeled to the pavement. "All I can offer is my love to you, but would you please marry me in Russia?" Victor's eyes filled to the brim with tears.

Yuuri nearly tackled Victor with a hug. And on that hot summer day in Hatsetsu, Yuuri couldn't say no.

Dear readers,

That was my fanfiction, guys, gals and non-binary pals! If you all would like, I can make an Epilogue chapter, but I felt like that was a pretty good place to stop. This really has been an extraordinary journey that I've had the honor to take. That was my first fanfiction, so there's many faults and mistakes, but I hope you all loved will not be a sequel, but you all may request ships to do in another fanfiction or one shot. Cheers to hebithesnake for helping me with a part of this chapter!

Sincerely,

LTheBananaKing
