I will repeat some stuff. I am not a native English speaker (/writer but I think that is logical) so I hope I don't mess up too badly. LGBT rights aren't from Russia in this story but from the Netherlands. I will make sure to update on Sunday's but if I find time in between I will do extra chapters. And lastly, I hope you enjoy it.

PS. Nope, Yess, Yess (I lied in the last chapter about it staying dark for a while ;) )

CH.20 We Meet Again P.2

Yuuri opened his eye's and everything was too bright for him. He shielded his eye's with his arm only to find a tube in it. Focusing his eye's as best as he could he found out there was an IV in his arms and he was connected with more wires to a machine with his heart beat. Before Yuuri hadn't noticed the sound but now it was a little bit overwhelming. When he tried to sit up but when he did his body was screaming from the pain. As an reaction to the pain he let his body fall back onto the bed only to make the pain worse. His back touched the mattress and he gasped for air while realisation hit him. Everything that had happened before he had passed out came back to him, only intensifying the pain. Against all the pain he sat up in a panic state. He needed to get out before the brute named Igor came. The door opened and Yuuri flinched from the sound. Slowly he opened his eye's again to look at the door and it felt like time stopped. In the door stood a silver-haired man, with paler skin than Yuuri remembered. Under his sky blue eye's, Yuuri could see traces of lack of sleep. Yuuri hadn't noticed he began to cry and Victor ran over to him. He held him in his arms and Yuuri didn't care that his body was screaming from pain. He clung to Victor desperately in the hope it wasn't a dream. Yuuri smelled Victor's cologne as he buried his face in his shoulder. He was sobbing loudly and couldn't stop anymore. One hand of Victor was on his back which burned but it was a pleasant burn. The other hand from Victor was in his hair. Someone was saying things to him or Victor but Yuuri didn't listen to them all he wanted was to keep being held by Victor. He cried uncontrollably and Victor was whispering in his ear.

"Everything is going to be fine, I am here." Yuuri didn't know why but slowly his body began to feel limb and his breathing evened out. Victor felt the changes in Yuuri and eventually saw that he had fallen asleep in his arms. With pain in his heart, he gently lay Yuuri down on the hospital bed.

"I am sorry," It was a nurse talking but Victor didn't take his eye's of Yuuri's sleeping form. "He shouldn't have been awake yet."

"It's fine," Victor stroked a lock of hair away from Yuuri's face. "I am just happy he is still alive." Victor kissed Yuuri's forehead and took his hand.

"The doctor will be here shortly. And if you need anything just call for help." The nurse said after she had written something down on a board before leaving. Victor studied Yuuri. He was thinner than the last time he had seen him, His hair was way longer and his neck was bruised as if someone had tried to choke him. He couldn't see further down because of the blankets and the hospital gown. However, the nurse had said that he shouldn't touch Yuuri's back and he did feel bandages before. Victor stroked circles on Yuuri's hand when he noticed a ring on his hand. At first, he thought that it was the ring he had given him. But when he felt a stone he looked down and his blood began to boil. There was a silver ring on Yuuri finger with a blue diamond in it. Victor tried to pull it off but when Yuuri stirred in his sleep he stopped.

"We tried to get it off." Victor looked over his shoulder at the direction of a Russian voice. A Doctor with Yakov behind him walked into the room. "But It was too small when it was put on his finger and the ring needs to be cut into two for it to be removed. I hope you don't mind?" The doctor asked as he went to stand on the other side of Yuuri's bed and Yakov came to stand beside Victor.

"The sooner the better." Victor answer while looking back at Yuuri.

"Just to be sure, this is Yuuri Katsuki?" The doctor asked.

"Yes." Victor answered

"And you are his fiancée and next of you is your coach?"

"That is correct." This time it was Yakov who answered while He put a hand on Victor's shoulder.

"I will tell you the extent of mister Katsuki injuries," The doctor took a moment and Victor looked up. "If there is something you don't understand please ask, and if you can't hear it anymore feel free to stop me for a moment." Victor nodded and the doctor took a deep breath.

"Mister Katsuki has a small fraction in his skull which can cause dizziness but will heal over time on its own. Ass you can see he has a bruised neck from what is left of being choked, there doesn't seem to be any damage on the inside so Mister Katsuki got lucky there." Victor didn't like the fact that the man called it lucky. "His left shoulder was dislocated we have already put it back into place. On the same side as his shoulder, he has a couple of broken ribs. Which should heal on their own eventually." The doctor took another break for a moment and Victor wasn't sure what to think they hadn't talked about Yuuri's back.

"What about Yuuri's back" Victor was getting impatient. Yakov looked at Victor with a questionable face. He hadn't seen the nurse when Victor had touched it.

"Yes his back," The tone of the doctor changed. "He was beaten badly with a whip according to another person who was held captive. And it does suit the shape of the wounds on his back. It was very bad and it had to be stitched in a lot of places. Not only that be we suspect that he was beaten before the whip was used. As the rest of his back is bruised up from some very large objects."

Victor looked at his hands his knuckles had gone white the strong grip he had on the bed frame. He was so angry if he ever met the person who did this he was going to beat him up.

"Was that everything?" Yakov asked after a moment of silence.

"Sadly not," when will this end? Victor thought. "His ankle is broken in a weird angle we put it all back into place but it will take a long time before it is properly healed. There is also a lot of damage inside from not correctly preparing before having intercourse. And lastly, we examined his blood and found out he has been given a lot of sleeping drugs and drugs to paralyse his body." Victor's eye's widened, The person who did this used his fiancée body while he wasn't able to defend himself. Victor was sickened by the thought he wanted to punch this person in the face.

"Because of the effects he might need a lot more sleep and it can take some time before he will be back to normal sleeping patterns." The doctor said. Since there wasn't any operation needed anymore and it would all depended on how fast Yuuri would recover, before he was allowed to leave. He also made a note that someone would come to break the ring of Yuuri's finger. Once he left Yakov took a chair and gave it to Victor who let himself fall down in it. He took Yuuri's hand even if it still had the horrible ring on it.

"We're lucky he made it out alive." Yakov said as he took another chair from himself.

"I wouldn't call this lucky." Victor said in a grim tone. After that, both men sat in silence next to Yuuri's bed. Victor kept a strong grip on Yuuri's hand afraid that if he let it go that he would disappear. Last half year had been awful for him he was plagued by nightmares. Mostly of him not being able to help Yuuri while they were doing unspeakable things to him. The media had been swarming him with questions while the cops had even pointed fingers at him. The only thing he had left were those pictures of Yuuri in obscure clothing, they did give him the hope that Yuuri was still alive and that he could see him again. Victor had to admit that he wasn't proud of the fact that he downloaded every picture of IceSkateFan-Y but it was the only thing he had. At first, the police had tried to take the page down but then the stalker had threatened that he would kill Yuuri if it was taken down. And since the police seemed to be incapable of finding out where Yuuri was or were able to save him they left it on the internet, for the whole wide world to see. People had called it fake or a publicity stunt only those who were close to them and the skaters seemed to realise that it was real. The media had been talking ill about it and only seemed to realise it was real when Yuuri didn't show up for the skating events. It had taken a long time before people begin to believe what was really going on. The first shift was with these damn angle pictures under water, where you could clearly see that Yuuri was drowning. It had made Victor so angry that he had hired a private investigator. If the police weren't able to find Yuuri than he would find someone who was able. And that seemed to have worked. After all, it was the investigator who he had hired that tipped off the police of Yuuri's wear about and that he had kidnapped somebody else that day. Victor didn't know why the investigator hadn't go in herself but he hadn't spoken to her yet, besides the massage's she had send and the pictures from the place. He felt sick when he received her images but didn't know how fast he had to go to the hospital. It hadn't even been the worst experience. The worst moments had been to explain to Yuuri's parents that their son had been kidnapped and that they couldn't take down those photo's. Victor looked at Yakov.

"Have you called Yuuri's parents yet?" Victor asked

"No, you want me to?" Yakov responded while getting his phone.

"I will do it myself." Victor said while he began to scroll through his contacts for Mari's number. Once found he didn't wait for a second and pushed the call button. It did take somewhat longer than normal for the family to pick up but eventually, he got a sleepy Mari on the phone.

"Helo?" Mari asked in Japanse apparently she hadn't looked at the caller's information.

"Sorry, Mari did I wake you up?" Victor asked in English.

"Ah, Victor yes you did but I assume it is important." Mari said with a yawn at the end.

"Yes, earlier today they have found Yuuri." Victor wasn't sure if this is how you would bring this kind of news but he didn't know another way. "Mari?" Victor asked when he heard no response.

"Are you sure?" Mari asked eventually and Victor didn't find it strange after all he didn't believe it himself at first either.

"Yes, I am with him right now he is asleep so I can't let you hear him." Victor heard Mari run trough the house and wake up her parents telling them the great news.

"Can I speak to my boy?" Victor heard Hiroko ask but Mari explained that he was asleep. Victor stroked Yuuri's hair carefully afraid to break him. He wished that they could be here and see their son for themselves.

"What if we facetime?" Victor asked when he heard the disappointment in Hiroko's voice when Mari had explained it. The family agreed and so they switched to face time. Hirako was overjoyed to see her son even if it was trough a small screen. It didn't stay for long ass Toshiya asked how Yuuri was doing and Victor had to explain all the injuries. He was glad Yakov was there to support him as he found himself failing and in those moments Yakov stepped in. It was a long and difficult conversation but they were glad their son was back and alive. Victor promised that when Yuuri was awake he would ask if he wanted his family to come over or wait until they could go to Japan. When the call ended it felt like a weight had lifted from Victor's shoulders. It didn't take long after that for Yakov to go and get the both of them dinner and he left Victor alone with Yuuri. Relieved that Yuuri was back made Victor finally break as he softly cried while he pressed Yuuri's hand against his face. It pained him to see his Yuuri like this but he was safe and he would do everything to keep it that way.
