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.
Warning. uuuuuhhhmm?
CH.36 5 P.1
The first official day of the GPF went by pretty quickly. Yuuri and Victor had spent the day avoiding paparazzi, sightseeing and training. In the evening they joined the other male single finalist plus Isabella for dinner. Victor had a lot of fun and thought back about everything Yuuri and he did yesterday.
'Today isn't going to be as much fun as yesterday.' Victor thought while he looked at Yuuri who was still fast asleep next to him.
"But I am sure I can do this as long as you are next to me." Victor whispered softly as he stroked Yuuri's cheek with his thumb. Yuuri sighed happily and unconsciously moved closer to the touch Victor gave him. Victor smiled at his adorable Yuuri but had to get ready for the day when the alarm went of. He put it out fast to make sure that Yuuri could get at least a little bit more sleep. He quickly got ready and packed everything they would need for the day. The thing Victor least liked about his career that at these kinds of events he was supposed to wear his team jacked so now that Yuuri wasn't skating he took extra long deciding on what Yuuri would wear that day. He ended up with a white dress shirt with white buttons except for the top one which was black, a grey waist coat with black buttons, one of the long grey vests Phichit had gifted Yuuri and black jeans. When Victor was sure it was the right choice he woke up Yuuri. Yuuri was still half asleep when Victor helped him get ready. The moment Yuuri did realize what Victor was doing was when he took off thelocket Victor had given him for his birthday. He only took it off when showering and it had become something permanent like the ring he used to have.
"Don't worry," Victor reassured him when he saw the questionable look on Yuuri's face. "I'll put it back on when you are dressed." Yuuri was fine with the answer and let Victor help him into his clothes. The necklace was found its way back to Yuuri's neck and thelocket was now hanging below the black button finishing the outfit. At first, Victor planned to put Yuuri's hair in a pony tail but decided that a loose side ponytail would be better. When they were all set and done they left the room to head down for breakfast. Yakov and Yurio were already waiting for them in the lobby of the hotel. Together they ate breakfast and then headed towards the rink.
"This isn't going to be as easy as yesterday." Yakov stated as they walked around the corner and saw the huge amount of press crowded around the entrance of the building.
"If there is any question you don't want to answer just don't say anything let Yakov handle them." Victor said while giving Yuuri an encouraging soft squeeze on the shoulder. Victor stepped in front of Yuuri and Yurio took the handles of the wheel chair and a group they walked towards the entrance of the rink. The moment one reporter spotted them all heads turned and they came all came for them.
"Victor Nikiforov what do you have to say about the accusation that you care more about medals than Yuuri Katsuki health?" None of them expected that question. and Victor wasn't sure how to respond to it while more strange and similar questions were asked.
"How do you feel about the fact that you exploiting Yuuri Katsuki on the internet for more fame?"
"What?" Victor eventually made even though he was still stunned by what the questions were.
"There are even suggestions you're exploiting Yuuri Katsuki to get sympathy from the Judges." The same reporter continued. but Yakov stepped in front of Victor and began to pull him into the building.
"We are here to skate today and not to feed some filthy lies." Yakov said and the door slid closed behind them.
"What were they talking about?" Victor asked while they joined up with Yuuri and Yurio.
"I don't know but it made it a lot easier for us." Yurio said as he left Yuuri hanging and walked away without him.
"Are you oké?" Yuuri asked when Victor took the handles of the wheelchair and they moved further down to the changing rooms.
"Yes, I am fine just wondering what they were talking about." Victor answered as they followed Yurio into the changing room leaving Yakov behind in the hall.
"Don't need to wonder any longer." Yurio said as he showed his phone to Victor. Yurio showed him the picture from yesterday evening which he had posted online. In the picture, Yuuei was sleeping in bed and Victor had added. Passed out after a long day of fun activities. Victor scrolled through the messages and saw what Yurio meant.
Yu-chan_bestskaterever. 'Doesn't it feel like he is using Yuuri for attention?'
Angellover. 'He is definitely using Yuuri since we all know that his skating is so bad he has to quit soon.'
Chibobo. 'Like all the media is saying his Victor skating is dead.'
Yuri_2659. 'He should be more concerned about Yuuri health, the poor guy needs to rest in bed not taken to competitions.'
Angellover. 'He probably gives more about medals than he gives about Yuuri.'
Yuri_2659. 'he should be ashamed of that.'
and it went on and on to the point Victor didn't want to read anymore. He handed the phone back to Yurio and excused himself saying he needed to call someone. Once he was in a more privet place he took his phone out and called someone. It only went over once before the person on the other side picked up the phone.
"Hi Victor, what can I do for you?" It was a sly female voice which belonged to Helena.
"Have you seen what is going on with my latest post." Victor asked close to cutting Helena off.
"Yes, I have." Helena said flatly.
"And?"Victor asked sort of impatient. He knew Helena was toying with him like she alway's did but he wasn't in the mood right now.
"Well, I think it is obvious what is happening." Again in the same flat tone.
"Then make it obvious to me." Victor responded.
"Some one is in a bad mood," Helena said and could Victor hear the clicking of a keyboard on the background. "Igor probably had made his first move. He must have made a new social media account or he might have more than one and began a counter attack against you."
"But then why are so many people agreeing with him?" Victor asked still not fully understanding the bigger picture.
"He used the thing he has been using up until now." Helana began. "He uses Yuuri fan's to know more and to gain control of a situation. Remember how long it took for people to realise that Yuuri was indeed abducted, that it wasn't some kind of publicity stunt. In some way, he must have influence in Yuuri's fanbase and that is what I have been tracking all morning. Once we know from which accounts these suggestions and lies come from we have a way to find him." For Victor, it was like some kind of click was made in his brain. Helana was right there were so many people from Yuuri's fan base saying that Yuuri was alright and that you could see his beauty in the pictures.
"So what are we going to do now?" Victor asked while he leaned against the wall.
"You are going to go on with your day as if nothing happens and let me do my job." And with that, she hung up and Victor stared at his phone. He took a moment to set his mind straight and gathered all his strength to go on with the day. He rejoined Yuuri and Yurio in the locker room and got ready for training. Yuuri was side eyeing him probably wondering if he was alright but didn't ask. Yurio and Victor was a bit late but still joined the other male finalists on the ice. Most of them gave Victor worried glances as they probably had seen what had happened online but Victor ignored them and did his warm up on the ice before heading back to Yakov and Yuuri for instructions. Yurio was of easy but Victor wasn't.
"Don't do any jumps for now." Yakov instructed Victor.
"Don't worry Yakov I got this." Victor said while having a lot of confidence in himself.
"Well then show me." Yakov said and Victor skated of joining the others in practice.
"Something changed," Yuuri noted and he could feel Yakov looking at him.
"Good or bad?" Yakov asked eventually.
"I'm not sure but for me, it feels like he has a clear goal in mind. Like he knows what he has to do." Yuuri said while waving back at Phichit who seemed way too happy that Yuuri was watching.
"I thought it would affect him more." Yakov said as they saw Victor land a quadruple flip.
"It did affect him but some how it became a sort of motivation." Yuuri pointed out while he kept following Victor's movements. "I think the phone call changed his mind."
"Phone call?" Yakov asked while he side eyed Yuuri.
"Yess, he said he needed to call someone and when he came back he seemed to be a lot more determent." Yuuri answered Yakov still not looking away from Victor.
"Ah, properly called that personal investigator." Yakov said with a sigh.
"personal investigator?" Yuuri repeated and looked at Yakov confused.
"Yes, Victor hired her at some point." Yakov said in a cold tone.
"I didn't know." Yuuri said wondering what more he didn't know but before he got to ask Yakov stepped in.
"There is a lot you don't know and for now it is better that way. You don't need to worry about it right now you have enough to deal with." And with that, the conversation ended leaving Yuuri even more confused. One by one skater left until Victor was the only one still using the little time he had left. Victor stepped out of the rink but didn't take the blade guards Yakov offered.
"How much time is there left?" He asked instead.
" A little bit over 10 minutes why?" Yakov asked and without giving an answer Victor lifted Yuuri from the wheelchair bridal style and stepped back on the ice.
"What are you doing?" Yuuri yelped and Yakov shouted.
"Just skating together." Victor answered with a big smile on his face. Yakov was shouting that Victor should get off the ice but he ignored him and he lazily skated circles while caring Yuuri in his arms. Yuuri felt that his face was becoming redder by the second since he knew it was being filmed and maybe even broadcasted.
"I've missed this." Victor said while he looked down at Yuuri in his arms. "Skating together, without anyone to judge us."
"I which I could skate as well." Yuuri said while he felt himself drowning in Victor's sky blue eyes. He felt some kind of peace wash over him, which was guided by the swaying motions of Victor skating. Everything felt right at the moment for Yuuri and he found himself fall in love with Victor all over again. Yuuri didn't know what came over him but he cupped Victor's face with his good hand and leaned up a bit and Kissed Victor. Victor surprised at first by the public display of affection but after a short moment he moved his lips in sync with Yuuri's
"ffftfwuuuuuuw" Yuuri and Victor abruptly ended their kiss and looked over to the place the whistle came from. On the opposite side of the rink from Yakov stood J.J, Chris and Phichit. "ffftfwuuuuuuw" J.J whistled again and smirked at the reaction of the both of them.
"Maybe do it off the ice otherwise it is going to melt." Chris teased and Yuuri's face went bright red showing that his mind had caught up with his actions. He buried his head in Victor's chest, hoping for some miracle that it wasn't going to get worse.
"Don't look away Yuuri." Phichit said in a happy tone. "Smile for the camera." Yuuri didn't move and Victor was laughing at the whole scene.
I Hope that I didn't offend anyone with the generic names from the twitter feed. I just took the ones which came to me at that moment so don't be mad. I didn't look up has these names online. Thanks for all the follows+fav+reviews so far. I enjoy reading all of them. :p Like I said on top it will be a weekly updated but if I have the time I will still update in between as well.
