So, I'm back with another chapter. the way things are going, this fic would have more chapters than I originally planned for.

I own nothing, except for my OCs.


'I am unable to do the third sum.' Alvira said.

'Lucy. help Alvira with the sum.' the teacher said. Alvira sighed. Why did it always have to be Lucy?

Though Lucy was older than Alvira, the two of them were in the same class. And though Alvira was a prodigious ice-skater, she her genius did not extend to studies. Lucy, on the other hand excelled in studies.

Lucy smirked. 'Honestly, can't you do anything on your own?'

'Alvira!' the teacher chided.

'It is okay.' Alvira's friend Reiko said, in Japanese. 'Don't think about her.

Reiko had lived all her life in Japan, and so she knew very little English. Due to this, she appeared rather shy and withdrawn in the class. Though she had grown up in St Petersburg, Yuuri often spoke to her in Japanese, and she had been to Japan many times, so she was well versed in the language. So, she started talking to Reiko and managed to bring the girl out of her shell.

'I don't know what I' had done to make her hate me so much.'

'Lucy is just jealous of you.' Reiko said, not seeing that Lucy was standing right behind her.

'What did you say?' Lucy asked. 'I heard my name. You were bitching about me, weren't you?'

'I was saying that you are jealous of Alvira because she can skate better than you.' Reiko retorted.

'Reiko!' Alvira was shocked to see her normally timid friend speak so bluntly.

'ha. Me, Princess Lucy Leroy jealous of you? In your dreams.' Lucy said, and she made a strange hand gesture.'

'You are jealous.' Reiko said.

'Listen up.' Lucy said, looking at Alvira. 'I am sure I can beat you any day. how about we have a face-off.'

'A face off.'

'Yes. midnight at the rink. We can both skate, and Reiko will be the may be your friend, but I know she's fair. '

'Are you kidding? No way they'll let us go to the rink at midnight.'

'We won't tell anyone, stupid. We'll sneak out.'


'Truth or dare.'

Everyone had scoffed when Chris suggested that the group of grown up skaters play a game of Truth or Dare. However, after a couple of drinks, everyone was up for it. So, Otabek ended up reluctantly doing a handstand, Viktor had stripped, Seung-Gil had sung an awkward duet with Mickey and Mila had lifted Yurio up in the air, much to the young man's annoyance. There were plenty of truths revealed as well, ranging from funny ones like the one about how Phichit had accidently uploaded a recording of Yurio singing in the bathroom to downright tragic once like about how Georgi tried to kill himself after he had been dumped by Anya. Now it was Viktor's turn to ask and Yuuri's turn to answer.

'Truth.'

'Ah!' Viktor was overjoyed. he finally got the chance to ask his husband a question that had plagued him for years. Yuuri refused to answer it every time he asked. But this time, he couldn't refuse.

'Yuuri, how come you are such an expert in pole-dancing? Tell me, I am really curious.'

'Ah yes.' Chris said. 'Were you considering stripping as an alternate career option, like me?'

Yuuri turned red. 'Uh...I.' He paused. 'Very well. When I was in Detroit, I had signed up for a ballet class, in a professional dance academy to help with my skating. However, one day, I accidentally walked into the exotic dancing class instead. And...I felt too shy and anxious to tell the instructor I was in the wrong classroom. And...I...I went along with it. I discovered it was actually quite fun. I made a few friends there. Not all of them were wannabe strippers. Pole dancing is actually fun and good exercise. Since I enjoyed it so much, I started turning up every day.'

Viktor could not control himself when he noticed how blushy Yuuri had become. 'Oh Yuuri.' He said, and dragged him onto his lap. He started kissing him on the neck.

'Get a room.' Yurio said, rolling his eyes.

Okay, so things would get a bit dark from now.

Do review.
