Their month off from training was almost up. They had one week left. Yuri and JJ were skating, just doing laps around the rink. Yuri was skating backwards and JJ was following him going forward. They picked up speed as they went by the rink wall.
"Yuri-Chan, you know I learned something really cool when I was training in Detroit. Maybe you'd like to try?" JJ asked, looking at Yuri.
"Hmm maybe, what is it?" Yuri asked, slowing down, then eventually stopping. JJ had done the same and they leaned against the rink wall.
"A death drop! It was so cool!" JJ said, smiling at the blond.
"That does sound pretty interesting. Let's try it!" Yuri said. They skated out to the center of the rink. After the first feew tries, it went pretty smoothly and Yuri laughed as his hair grazed the ice. JJ slowly lifted him back up out of it and pulled him close to stop their spin. Yuri looked up at him, into those steel grey eyes. JJ was looking back at him and it was just the two of them. Everything else was gone. Yuri stood up on his toe picks and gently pecked JJ's lips.
JJ gasped softly then kissed back. He wrapped his arms around the blond's waist, gently pulling him closer. They deepened the kiss, not caring about anything else.
"Yuri, JJ, are you all done ska- Oh my god!" Mila screamed and Yuri fell back onto the ice. JJ just stood there in shock.
"BABA WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" Yuri yelled. He had gotten up and was glaring daggers at Mila. "Aren't you supposed to be resting today?!"
"I went looking for you and Yakov said you guys were here and.." Mila started, but ended up going silent. Yuri stormed off the ice and headed for the locker room without another word. JJ skated over to the rink exit, then put his blade guards on, and grabbed Yuri's.
"Look, Mila, I think Yuri's trying to figure out how he feels. He might also be scared of the judgement that might come off of all this. Please don't tell anyone what you saw." JJ said, grabbing their skate bags.
"Alright. Just make sure you don't break his heart, or I'll break you Leroy." Mila giggled. She sat down to lace up her skates as JJ took off towards the locker room. He came in and found Yuri in the furthest bench from the door.
"Yuri-Chan? Are you okay?" JJ asked, sitting next to Yuri and dropping their stuff on the floor.
"I don't know.. I'm sorry about what I did out there, I don't know what-"
"Yuri-Chan, are you falling for me?~ Because, to be honest, I've liked you for quite some time now." JJ said, looking over at Yuri. Yuri looked up at him, his green eyes wide.
"You.. I.. Yeah. I am. I don't know why, but it started when you showed up at Worlds. When you touched me, I freaked out because I didn't know what I was feeling. I didn't want to tell you because I was scared you'd turn me down.." Yuri said, blushing a bit. JJ pulled Yuri in close for a hug.
"Oh Yuri-Chan, I could never turn you down~" JJ whispered, gently stroking Yuri's hair. "Even though you were always mean to me, I still liked you~"
"JJ.." Yuri whispered, shifting to look up at the Canadian. He kissed JJ's cheek then rested his head on the older boy's shoulder. "What are we going to do?
Keep it a secret for now?"
"I think that'd be best, especially considering our age difference." JJ said. After all, he was 21 and Yuri was only 16. It'd look really bad on JJ's end, but the press and fans might also attack Yuri over it. They'd think he was only using JJ for attention or worse, money. Which, both of them were extremely well off on their own because of their skating.
"Yeah. Oh fuck. What about Baba out there, what if she-"
"No worries, Yuri. I already told her to keep her mouth shut about it~"
"Thank you JJ~" Yuri purred. They hugged for several more minutes, then changed out of their skates and headed home.
