THANK YOU FOR THE REVIEWS GUYS! I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!
Me: A NEW CHAPTER AT LAST! ARE YOU READY?!
Yurio: I swear if you make him go sneak into the airplane or do something involving being naked Viktor is a dead man along with you Midnight!
Me: You're kinda close there but poor sweet naive Yurio, you can't succeed in killing me...Many have tried and failed and they were much smaller and threatening than you are. So don't provoke me, child.
Yurio: WHAT DID YOU CALL ME! *being held back by Otabek* I'M LITERALLY THE SAME AGE AS YOU!
Me: You're still a child ^.^
Viktor: *turns to audience* Midnight hopes you enjoy this chapter and remember that she does not own any of us or the anime except for her OC Chihoko *whispers* she's still the enemy though...
Yuuri: She's literally helping the story us get together Viktor, let it go already *sighs*
"Viktuuri is saved!" Chris announced the moment he entered the empty classroom that is only filled with his lunch match making buddies. "I have it all in the bag and I'm going to need your help, or should I say Viktor is going to need your help."
"What did you do?" Chihoko asked with curiosity.
"Me? I only did what any good friend would do for a man who is deniable in love," Chris dramatically sighed then smiled when he placed a written and drawn out plan on the table. "I gave him a little inspiration to be extra and helped him create this plan since I totally volunteered all of you to help him get out of the school campus without getting caught or at least until they discover that he's missing."
"Wait caught? Missing?" Georgi nearly choked on the piroshki he was eating. "What is Viktor planning?!"
Phichit was already looking at the plans, seeing Viktor's neat handwriting and sloppy artistic skills that were at least visible enough to see what he was trying to create as the plan was slowly building itself in his mind! His eyes widened, all excitement has bubbled out of him as he squealed, "Oh my god this is the work of God! WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING GOES ACCORDING TO HIS PLAN!
"What did those papers say?" Georgi asked nervously until he was finally reading the plans himself but he was excited like Phichit when he finished reading. Instead, he was more worried or in other words, he panicked, "VIKTOR, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!? MR. FELTSMAN AND YOUR DAD ARE GOING TO KILL YOU FOR THIS!"
"Don't worry about it Georgi," Chris reassured as he made a thumbs up, "Even though Viktor is totally toast after this, as long as we make sure Viktuuri is still on the road, then it's worth it! He thinks it's all in the name of friendship but we all know it's in the name of love and for all fans of Viktuuri who refuse to give up hope on our couple who are destined for greatness!"
"Even if you tricked Viktor into making this plan all by himself," Chihoko smirked, pretty much on board with the plan already. "I'm going to need all the clay and wigs in order to get his first part of the plan in place! They'll never know the difference, it'll be like he has his own twin!"
"I seriously hope this ends well," Georgi sighs in defeat.
"Phichit are you okay? You look a little too happy after we finished that quiz from history," Yuuri asked as they walked out of history class the moment the bell rang to head to the boy's changing room to change into their gym uniform. "You were going crazy this morning since you didn't study."
"Oh it's nothing to worry about Yuuri," Phichit reassured with a smile "I just learned to accept failure with a smile!"
Yuuri only gave him an unamused face of 'Are you serious?' at him as he sighed, "You won't be saying the same thing when you take a look at your grades when report cards come out. And when your parents stop sending you your allowance for three weeks as punishment."
"Don't worry, I have Seung-gil to help tutor me!" He waved off, tying up the laces of his sneakers. "But let's talk about you Yuuri, have you gotten the gift for your person."
Yuuri only looked away to try to hide his blush but it could be seen clear as day for Phichit, "It's really supposed to be none of your business but if you must know, I'm making the person a present instead of buying one." His expression then turned a little blue when he continued, "The problem is that it finishes up right on the day I have to go on vacation, not really enough time to give it to any of the teachers to hold on to. I'm probably going to have to hold on to it throughout the vacation."
Step one: Just reassure him and everything will go fine! Phichit told himself as he placed his arm around Yuuri to pull him into a hug and whispered, "Don't worry Yuuri, I'm sure that Viktor will love your gift and will be okay with waiting."
He smiled at how Yuuri turned redder and snapped back in a low voice so no one else would hear them, "Phichit, you shouldn't know who I got! That's technically cheating!"
"Calm down Yuuri, I may have peeked at the name you got but it's our little secret about your crush," He then winked at his friend who only snapped again,
"Phichit! I don't have a crush on him!" Yuuri was already puffing up his cheeks with anger which only made Phichit struggling to fight the urge to take pictures, "We're just friends and I only want to show my appreciation for this friendship that I hope lasts for a long time!"
Sure Yuuri, friendship...Was all Phichit had to say in his thoughts before he was dragged away by Yuuri so they could get to the gymnasium to start class. You won't be saying that when Viktor goes through his plan on exchange day.
*UNCERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME LATER...*
"Make sure to Facetime with me when you get to Japan!" Phichit reminded as he pulled Yuuri into a farewell embrace, noticing the purple wrapped package in his arms. "And be sure to keep Viktor's gift safe, wouldn't want to put all that hard work to waste."
"Phichit!" Yuuri groaned, using one hand to shove Phichit out of their dorm room to the hallway that led to the school. Once they were at the doorway of their dorm, he used this time to put the present in his bag so he could hold on to Vicchan, who was already begging to be carried instead of going walking since the poor pup was still feeling tired from walking up so early. "You should get going to the next class now or you'll be late! You're lucky you were allowed to skip the first class."
"Yuuri, this is our last morning together and you're kicking me out," Phichit whined but then gave him a wink, "Merry Christmas Yuuri, say hi to grandma and grandpa Katsuki for me! And don't worry about the Gift Exchange, you'll see that the airport is better."
"Should I be worried about your words?" Yuuri raised an eyebrow until he was being pulled out of the room to head down the hallway that led to the exit that leads to the house the Katsuki's lived in.
"Nope, now go enjoy your vacation! Look your older sister is already calling you to get in the van!"
With that, Yuuri boarded the van the Katsukis' owned with Vicchan in his arms and off they went. Once their van was out of sight, Phichit pulled out his phone and pressed the contact to inform the person he was calling, "Chris, tell Viktor that the Katsuki's are on the move! He has to get the car ready..."
...
"Minako-sensei!" Viktor rose up from his seat, interrupting the class while everyone else was staring at him with confusion. "May I use the restroom, it's an emergency!"
"Eh? Well, that's a surprise there Viktor, first Georgi is excused from class to finish an art project with a junior, then Chris goes to the bathroom, and now you're leaving my class. Just because it's the day winter break begins doesn't mean I have to lose all my students," Minako remarked, her attention away from the board where she was writing a fun lecture that isn't part of the lesson plans since it was last day of school before winter break. "Alright, you may go and while you're at it, send Chris back here from his trip to the bathroom, that kid has been in there for a while now..." She then looked at the clock, "Or you know what, just grab your stuff and his, class is about to end in a minute or two anyway, then it's homeroom for all of you!"
"Yes sensei," Viktor agreed as he walked pass the teacher's desk and out the room. "It won't take long." The moment he was out of sight, he sprinted through the halls and inside the janitor's closet where Chris texted him to meet the others in.
The first thing he saw was a horrifying sculpted face with bangs on the left, he had to cover his mouth to muffle any signs of screaming when Chris and Georgi pulled him and Chihoko stepped out dressed in the janitor's uniform to shut the door on them. She smiled as she listened to the muffling sounds of Viktor struggling through the dark to try to switch out of uniform. Oh, my god, this is so brilliant, I can't believe Viktor was the one who came up with this plan...But it would be more romantic if I could just catch Yuuri and Viktor switching their uniform together, completely naked and alone-Oh man this would make perfect manga indeed!
She was so busy fantasizing over her newest ideas for her manga that she failed to realize the amount of blood that fell on the floor and Georgi's panicked voice from the closet crying out, "Chihoko! Are you okay?! You're bleeding again!"
"Is that normal for her?" Viktor asked curiously, seeing the blood on the floor seeping through the cracks under the door. "Is it a strange medical condition she has? I didn't even know she had this sort of condition."
"Yep, very strange and allows goes off at the wrong time," Chris reassured as he placed the sunglasses on Viktor. "And you're ready, Phichit already is waiting for you by the car but don't worry, Chihoko, Georgi, and I will bring your decoy to the next class. Do us all proud and give your gift to Yuuri."
"Thank you," Viktor sniffled dramatically, then inspecting the sculpture dummy of himself that was wearing his uniform while he wore regular clothes for the weekend. "I must admit, this dummy of me looks rather handsome if I do say so myself."
"Just get going," Chris pushed Viktor out through the door as he, the dummy, Chihoko, and Georgi watched that lover boy rush down the hallways avoiding all confused gazes passing students who were running late were giving him. "Oh, he's so dead." With that, the trio just walked down the hallway, well after waiting for Chihoko to take off the janitor uniform that was covering her actual school uniform she wore under it, with the dummy Viktor's legs dragging themselves on the ground while they tried to act as casual as they could be.
Keyword: Tried.
Unfortunately, despite making sure everyone believed that the dummy they were helping carry was Viktor, there was one person who they all didn't count on showing up from behind them when turning the next corner: HEADMASTER NIKIFOROV!
Oh, crap...Georgi thought to himself, panicking as silently as he could while they casually tried to pretend that they had no idea that Viktor's father was literally right behind them, reading a newspaper and drinking coffee! Until the headmaster just had to look down from his paper and address the three and a half group. "Oh good morning Chihoko, Chris, Viktor, and Georgi, aren't you supposed to be in homeroom right about now? And why are you carrying Viktor like that?"
"Oh, this guy?" Chihoko forced a laugh, trying to explain as realistically as she could, "Well, once he got out of class, he kinda got tired from staying up late doing this project with me so Georgi and Chris offered to carry him to class while he takes a nap. Pretty cool right?"
"If he's that tired then it is better if he was taken to the infirmary so he could catch up on sleep," Headmaster Nikiforov suggested, pointing to the direction where said infirmary should be, "I'll take him there while you three go on to homeroom." Unbeknownst to him though, right behind in that same hallway was also where the exit was and the real Viktor didn't even step out since he had to hide behind a trash bin to avoid being seen! Any sudden turns and Headmaster Nikiforov will catch his son red handed trying to escape the school building!
"NO!" Chris shouted, startling Headmast Nikiforov until he cleared his throat and chuckled,"I-I mean no thank you, sir, I'm sure we can handle taking him there ourselves, we started the journey, might as be the ones who end the journey as well, right? Besides we wouldn't want to bother you with such an unnecessary task that Viktor entrusted us to do from the beginning."
"That's really admirable Chris but I don't mind taking my son from here," Headmaster Nikiforov reassured, making a reach for the Viktor dummy. "You three should really get going before your teachers mark you absent."
However, before his hands to touch the dummy, they all jumped when they heard a loud crash coming from that same hallway as they turned around only to have their eyes widened at the sight. There stood Viktor trying not to panic but failing since he single handily managed to tip over the entire trash can he was hiding behind of, literally in plain sight and recognition for the headmaster.
"Viktor?"
They all gasped, well Headmaster Nikiforov was beginning to feel anger build up as Chihoko sighed. Sorry man but I'm not going to get in trouble for your plans...Actually, this was his Plan B for cases that we got caught, it's stupid but he did tell us to put all the blame on him. She removed the wig and pretended to gasp in horror, "WHAT? This was a dummy this whole time!? But it looked so real like the real Viktor? How could he move this fast?"
Viktor blinked once, then twice but you really couldn't tell since he was wearing shades as he awkwardly waved at his father, "Hi dad..." Then without a second to lose, as fast as the speed of light, he was running right out the doors that headed to the parking lot as he shouted back so fast that it was hard to even try to figure out what the senior was trying to say in his heat of panic, "BYEDADLOVEYOU, YOUCANKILLMEAFTERIEXPLAINEVERYTHINGWHENIGETBACK!"
The second Viktor finished his gibberish, the very moment the doors were opened, Headmaster Nikiforov was already looking furious that in an instant he was already running down the hallway to pursue his son! Leaving behind the horrified looking trio at a loss especially when they heard the headmaster yelling after the crazy extra teen who just had to be related to him, "VIKTOR NIKIFOROV! YOU GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE RIGHT OR SO HELP I WILL PUNISH YOU SO BAD AND LONG THAT YOU'LL WISH THAT I EXPELLED YOU INSTEAD!"
The trio just had to peep out the doors to see what happened, and what they saw was something that can never be unseen.
There was Viktor running in the parking lot with car keys in his hands, heading to the car his parents got him for Thanksgiving where Phichit was waiting on the other side but he paled the moment he saw the headmaster storming out. The only thing the poor junior could do was pull out a handkerchief and pretend he was doing some cleaning on the car until Viktor got there, shoved him away while whispering to him, "Just tell him it was all my fault..." And with that, Viktor somehow managed to get in the car, turn the engine on and drive away just when Headmaster Nikiforov just arrived.
"Where the hell is he going?" Headmaster Nikiforov growled under his breath, losing patience.
Phichit, on the other hand, knew that he had to clear Viktor's name somehow with a solid truth like an excuse as he got up and simply replied, "He's just being extra and going after the Katsukis' to say farewell to them in person. He could have just asked you or Mrs. Nikiforov but love blinds a man sometimes."
"Love?" Headmaster Nikiforov gasped in surprise, his anger was easily forgotten in that instant while he was trying to process Phichit's words until he let out an exhausted sigh, "Of all people to get traits on how to handle emotional feelings, he just had to get mine..." If he's going after the Katuskis', then could it be that he's in love with the second born, Yuuri Katsuki? He suddenly had a realization as he groaned at the thought, "And now I owe my wife five hundred dollars."
"You said something, sir?" Phichit asked with confusion.
"No, no, nothing at all!" We just had to make that bet seventeen years ago.
Phichit: OH MY GOD HE'S SKIPPING CLASSES TO DRIVE AFTER THEM ISN'T HE!?
Chris: *applauds* THIS IS BRILLIANT!
Viktor: *in tears* Oh my god this is already getting good!
Yuuri: Midnight, I think you broke them in a good way
Me: It happens, no matter what I do, I just end up breaking any character I come across to.
Yurio: *turns to audience* Midnight hopes you enjoyed this gross chapter, make sure to review, follow, and favorite, don't forget to check out her other story "Two Worlds" and be prepared for more Vik-tuu-ri next chapter. Also for clarification to anyone, this story is NOT ending any time soon, unfortunately
