Chapter 4

Yurri arrive home just as the outdoor lanterns were being lit.

"Tadaima." he yelled as he entered through the sliding door.

"Okaerinasai." his mother yelled back from the kitchen.

"Oka-san have you seen Victor around?" Yurri asked as he walked through to where his mother was. She was currently in the process of making pork cutlet bowls and the smell made Yurri's stomach growl hungrily. Chuckling at Yurri's embarrassment at the sudden sound, she wiped her hands on her apron and turned towards him. "I saw him go into the living room about half an hour ago." she said with a cheery grin.

"Arigato Oka-san. Oh and Yurio won't be joining us for lunch today; he went out for coffee with Otabek." Walking out of the kitchen, Yurri made his way to the living room to look for Victor. As he approached, he saw that the lights were out. "Maybe he left already." He thought to himself. Suddenly, Makkachin came bounding through the door and bowled Yurri over, licking him in the face happily. He was so preoccupied with Makkachin, that he didn't notice Victor coming into view from the pitch black room.

Victor watched in amusement as Yurri was being licked to death by Makkachin. Yurri suddenly noticed him and let out a surprised yelp, making Victor chuckle. "I didn't mean to scare you love." He said still chuckling. Yurri just looked away, trying his hardest to hide a crimson blush that was presently making itself known. Victor reached out his hand and helped Yurri up. The two stared at each other for a minute before Victor, smiling, led Yurri to the kitchen.

After lunch, Victor excused himself from the table and disappeared back into the living room, this time turning the lights on but keeping them on low. Victor grabbed a blanket from a cuboard and wrapped it around himself, adjusting it here and there so that he was comfortable; finally sitting down with the FanFiction he's reading and starting on the newly updated chapters. After reading five chapters he found that his eyes were starting to droop and before he knew it, he was fast asleep.

Yurri, who had decided to take Makkachin for a walk after lunch, was currently on his way home when he spotted Yurio and Otabek sitting in a nearby café. The brunette couldn't help but smile when he saw Yurio doubled over laughing, presumably at something Otabek had either said or done. Suddenly out of nowhere, Makkachin's leash went taught and snapped as the poodle sprang forward to go after something Yurri hadn't seen. He stood there confused for a second as to what had happened before reality him like a brick. He soon found himself chasing after the poodle who was dashing after something. The poodle finally stopped, letting an exhausted Yurri catch up to him. "OI PIGGY, could you slow down already?" Panted Yurio from behind him closely followed by Otabek who didn't seem to even be breaking a sweat. Yurri looked up surprised. "What are you two doing here, I thought you were having coffee in that Café back there. "We were until we saw you sprinting like your life depended on it." Stated Yurio with his usual scowl on his face.

"Um excuse me but is this your dog?" Yurri turned around to face a stranger who was currently holding Makkachin by the broken end of his leash. "Uh yeah it is. I don't know what got into him he just suddenly bolted."

"Ah that was probably my fault sorry. You see I'm trying to train my puppy with a dog wistle and I guess your dog heard it." Looking down, Yurri noticed a small white labradoodle sitting by its owner's feet. The puppy looked up at Yurri, then at Yurio and Otabek before deciding to go off and sniff a nearby tree. After speaking to the stranger for a bit about random stuff, Yurri thanked them and took Makkachin's leash, tying the broken ends together. "I have to take Makkachin to get a new leash, are you guys going to come or are you going to go back to the café?" Yurri asked as he turned to Yurio and Otabek who, for some reason, still standing behind him.

Yurio looked at Otabek who just shrugged; "eh, we'll just go with you since we already paid the bill for the café and have nothing better to do."

The walk to the pet store wasn't long and only took them about ten minutes. There were so many different types of leads to choose from that it was hard to pick which one he wanted. Finally, with the help of Yurio and Otabek, Yurri chose a green and blue rope leash that he was sure wasn't going to snap any time soon. After paying for the leash, he hooked it onto Makkachin's collar, discarding the old one, and they headed back to the inn with Yurio and Otabek following behind them talking about getting some new motorcycle helmets. "hey Yurio have you notice how Victor has been distancing himself lately?" Yurri said turning to Yurio and Otabek. Yurio only grunted in response while Otabek gave him a questioning look. Finally giving in to Otabek's stare, Yurio explained the situation to him. By the time he was done explaining, Otabek had a grin on his face and was chuckling slightly. Yurri suddenly pulled out his phone and looked at the time, gasping when he realized that it was already 5:50 in the afternoon. He had only planned to be gone for an hour but it had somehow turned into almost four. "Yurio, Otabek, I'll see you back at the inn; I have to hurry cause I'm making dinner tonight and I'm already late." He yelled as he sprinted off in the direction of his family's inn.

Victor had woken up and finished the final chapter of the FanFiction he was reading; pretty soon though he was asleep again, still wrapped comfortably in his blanket. He was in such a deep sleep that he didn't even hear Yurri come barging through the front door, panting and in a huge hurry to get to the kitchen so that he could start dinner.

Yurri finally made it home and was in the process of making dinner when he noticed that Victor hadn't greeted him yet. Wiping his hands on a dishtowel, he went looking for him, heading for the living room because that was the last place he saw him. Entering, he found Victor passed out on the couch in a blanket. Suddenly, he spotted Victors phone and decided to see what it was that was making Victor distance himself from everyone. Luckily, Victors phone was still on and he hadn't exited out of the page he was on. Yurri read what was on it and immediately got flustered. It was a FanFiction about him and Victor that one of their fans had written. Not only that, but it had a lot of smut in it; enough to make Yurri turn off the phone and put it back down.

Victor woke up just in time to see Yurri put his phone down with a very flustered look on his face and realized that he had probably read some of the FanFiction that was on his phone. Letting out a chuckle at how embarrassed his lover looked, Victor sat up and stretched, effectively startling Yurri who hadn't noticed that he was awake. " This is why you've been so distant lately?" Yurri said turning to Victor who was now getting up off the couch. "What? It was a good story!" Victor said. Yurri could only stare wide eyed and mouth agape as his lover walked out of the living room with a huge cheesy grin on his face.

" Come on Yurri I'm hungry is dinner nearly ready?" Yurri just face palmed and walked after Victor to finish making dinner. Yurri didn't speak to Victor for two days after that and was very pleased when Victor literally showered him with gifts and apologies. Although he was pleased with himself for getting back at Victor, he still felt bad and in the end decided to read the FanFiction. By the time he was done, his face was redder than a tomato and he couldn't look at his phone for a week but was glad he had read it.
