It took a week for Otabek to call his father. He had missed the flight his father demanded him to be on. He kept his phone turned off, and Victor ignored the calls as well. Finally the night he went to call, they were all there with them. They couldn't understand what was being said, but the emotions coming off Otabek broke Yuri's heart. He kept a tight hold on him throughout the entire call. Victor kept his hand on his shoulder and Yuuri held his hand.
It also a take week to get Otabek back into the rink with him. They went and skated for fun. They raced each other around the rink, played around with pair skating, Otabek would twirl him and attempted a few throws. Each one landing him on his ass. It was fun, they laughed.
He talked to Yakov about bringing Otabek to the team as his choreographer. For once Yakov didn't yell. He just simply nodded his head, probably relieved as Lilia would be leaving, not yelling at him anymore. Plus Yakov always liked Otabek. Otabek made Yuri better to handle when he was around. For that Yakov hoped Otabek would never leave.
Two weeks after the conversation with his father, a large box appeared at their door. Otabek's mother had gotten him some of his most precious possessions, sending them to him. He had all but moved into Yuri's room at this point. They sat that night on their bed going through a picture album that was in the box. They hung Otabek's medals up next to his, his trophies placed next to his.
He loved looking in his closet, seeing Otabek's shirts hanging there, he would always grab his tshirts to sleep in, Otabek would always smile when ever he saw him in his clothes. Victor always joked, wondering why Yuri had his own clothes, being as he only wore his and Otabek's.
Otabek kept going to the gym, staying in shape, and some mornings would go with Victor to the rink where they helped teach kids how to skate. Otabek never knew how easy and fun life could truly be. They all fell into an easy routine.
Some nights Otabek would have a hard time. Even a nightmare or two. Yuri would hold him through them, kissing his forehead calming him down. Otabek would get sad thinking of his family and friends he left behind, but he would change nothing. He can finally be his own person.
Otabek even grew his hair out a bit, leaving the undercut. It drove Yuri insane when he did that, pulling his hair back in a messy ponytail. When he first started doing it, Yuri would literally jump him, start making out with him frantically. Once even in the living room and Yuuri threaten to hose him down if he couldn't control himself. Then he had to laugh when a picture tagged him on Instagram, Yuri and Otabek kissing, Victor and Yuuri sticking their tongues out making faces, captioned, "And he complains about us?"
Yuri skated Otabek's short program at the finals, he won gold. It was missing exactly what Otabek said, "Happiness". That was his theme this year. It was a surprise to everyone. For someone everyone knew as a loose cannon, here he was, This Beautiful Ever Evolving Monster, skating beautifully, expressing the happiness in his life, Otabek.
