Yuri felt Viktor's lips on his. They were warm and so soft. For a moment his brain froze and he closed his eyes, allowing the silver-haired man's hands to caress his cheeks until they slipped down to his back.

Then Yuri reacted and realized what was happening. Although he was enjoying his lips a lot, he tried to push Viktor away, but it was in vain. The other man hugged him harder and then lay him on the ice and then continue without further problems.

"Yuri, don't be shy." He muttered as he parted to let him take a breath. "Breathe through your nose." He warned him and kissed him again.

Yuri's mind was chaos. On the one hand, his logic told him that it was more than obvious that Viktor was in love with him, because he was sure that Viktor wasn't the kind of person who tried to intimidate just with any person, but common sense told him that it was impossible, that surely Viktor was only playing with his feelings, then the logic strike him again. Visit him in his work every day with the excuse of buying bottles of water, when there is already a convenience store next to the skating rink; ask personal questions one after another, throw hints and pretend he wasn't disappointed when it didn't work, ask permission to send him messages with a face full of embarrassment... That kind of things wasn't something that someone who was just looking for 'fun' would bother to do.

Gradually his brain was calmed, more because his thoughts were occupied by those insistent lips. Not to mention that the ice began to travel into his body. So, using all the strength he managed, he pushed Viktor off from on top of him, then Yuri sit on his knees and hugged himself, shaking because the nerves and for trying to warm himself.

"Cold!"

"Ah, Yuri! I'm so sorry again!" Viktor exclaimed, wrapping his arms around him with crocodile tears in his eyes. "I shouldn't have pushed you on the ice! But you looked so cute that I didn't want to let you go so soon!"

"It-it's alright..." It was all he could say, his cheeks burning, and regaining heat thanks to his body. Then, without really thinking it, he asked. "You... you like me, don't you?"

Viktor's face lit up and showed the happiest smile he had ever seen on him.

"Of course I like you, Yuri! I like everything about you!" The dark-haired boy was breathless for a moment, unable to believe what he asked and then such an answer. "And you? You like me too, isn't?"

"... Y-yes ..." He murmured, hiding his face down, but Viktor used one of his hands to grab his chin, forcing sapphire and amber eyes to meet.

"I like you, Yuri ... Now you have tell me the same, looking into my eyes."

Yuri was dying of embarrassment, but it was difficult to deny the request of those blue eyes that looked at him with so much affection.

"... I-I like you, Viktor."

"Great!" Viktor exclaimed with his face completely red and a smile more than pleased. "I decided! Now you're my boyfriend!" He hugged him harder.

"B-but ..."

"You... You don't want that?" He asked with watery eyes, visibly distressed.

"N-no! I wasn't talking about that!" Yuri replied at once. "Yes, of course I want to! It's just that... we've just known each other recently. I don't know if you really want to be with someone like... me."

"I see. I understand." Viktor's features softened and he smiled again. "I'm going too fast, right? It's the first time I've felt something like that for someone, and I'm glad that this someone is a as sensitive and cute man as you. Yuri, I don't know if you are whom I going to spend the rest of my life with, but I really want to try it if you let me to. So, do you want to be my boyfriend? "

"...Yes, I want to."

Viktor kissed him again, now with more contemplation. When they finished, they separated for a moment to rise from the ice. Then Viktor asked him with a childlike face.

"And what do you like about me?"

"Well... You're a very kind and a funny person... and... I like the way you skate."

"Oh? I thought you had no idea about figure skating." He laughed.

"There is Internet and many pages of videos with your routines in them ..."

"So you have seen me skate... Maybe I should show you some moves then." He said putting his hands on Yuri's waist, giving him a suggestive look.

"Y-yes, but not now." He apologized with a polite smile. "My knees are numb."

"... My knees too." He said when he noticed that his knees ached from being in contact with the ice. He took Yuri's hand and they carefully slid back out of the rink.

"What happened to Yurio?" Yuri asked as he realized he wasn't coming back yet.

"Here I am..." Said the blond, huddled behind the protection fences, apparently he had hidden behind them. Yurio was crossed arms and his cheeks were flushed. "I think you have something to tell me... To make things easier for you; I saw you two kissing."

"A-ah, that ..."

"Yes! Yuri and I are now boyfriends!" Viktor said, taking Yuri from the shoulders and show him like he was a shiny medal.

"Congratulations. It was about time." Yurio smiled for a moment, then sighed in anger. "But please, I don't want to see you two kissing again. You are so cheesy..."

"We promise" Yuri agreed with a timid smile.

After recovering the strength in the legs, the boys returned to the rink for a while. And when it was time to retire, Yurio said goodbye to them saying that his grandfather was going to prepare his favorite food. Viktor (on incognito to avoid his fans) and Yuri were walking slowly down the streets, looking for something to do to spend the rest of the day together.

"Maybe we can go to my hotel room." Viktor suggested. He doesn't know the city yet, so he didn't know where they could go, but then he realized that it wasn't a good idea sinche he felt Yuri tensed. "Yu-Yuri! I didn't mean like that! I just want you to meet Makkachin and ...! And... O-Of course I want to do 'that' with you in a not-too-distant future, but- " He wanted to keep explaining himself, but Yuri began to laugh. It was the first time he had seen him so flustered.

"Ok. I get it. You don't have to say anything else. Maybe... you want to have dinner at my house." Now Yuri suggested with some embarrassment, not sure if Viktor would like the idea of meeting his family.

"You mean... I'll meet my parents in law and my sister-in-law?" He asked with bright eyes and hugged him. "Oh, Yuri, I promise I be the best son-in-law in the world for your parents!"

"I'm bet my mom will love to hear you say that." he murmured with a snort. "But... I don't think we should tell them about us... for now." He said hesitating. "I don't know how they're going to react."

"Yes. You're right. They don't know me yet. I can wait."

"I've actually told them a little bit about you ..."

"Really? I'm flattered!" He kissed his now-boyfriend on the cheek, then released him to continue walking towards his house.

It wasn't really a surprise to Viktor to see how kind were Yuri's parents. They welcomed him from the door with open arms. He even saw Yuri's mother smile and whisper something to her son who made him blush. He also met his sister, who looked at them with a mischievous smile. He already seemed to have the blessing of the family.

During the dinner there was a bit of initial tension, at least on Viktor, who wanted to make a good impression, but soon the conversation resulted in trivialities and laughter.

When the dinner was over, the silver-haired man, a little reluctant, had to say goodbye in orden go to feed his pet. But before leaving he asked Yuri to speak for a moment alone while he was waiting outside for the taxi to take him to the hotel.

"Yuri, I'm going to stay here, in this city."

"Oh? Are you sure about that?" He asked in surprise. If he remembered it well, Viktor still had other options for working in other countries.

"Of course! You're here."

"But... you shouldn't stay just because we're a couple now..."

"Umh... You are talking as if you've already finished the relationship we just started." He replied with a frown and feeling somehow hurt. "I will not stay just because you are here. I really like this place. And you're a very convenient plus." He smirk and cupped his cheeks to look into his eyes. "So whether you like it or not, you will not get rid of me so easily."

"S-sorry, I didn't meaning it to sound that way..." He mumbled distressed and a little regretful. "I only thought of what was best for you ..."

"For now, the best thing for me is to be with you." Viktor said before brushed their lips in a long, romantic kiss, but was abruptly interrupted by the sound of a cell phone taking a picture.

"Oh no. Please continue" Yuri's sister told them.

"Ma-Mari!" Exclaimed the dark-haired boy trying to snatch his sister's cell phone, but she dodged it while she laughed. "Don't show that to my parents!"

"Pff! Do you think our parents don't know about you two?"

"What do you mean?"

"Yuri, you haven't brought a woman into to our house in 22 years and suddenly you brought a very handsome man who has been fondling you during all dinner. Do you really thought no one will notice?" Mari gave a sigh of annoyance, but then she smiled at them. "Don't worry, Viktor. I'll make sure my little brother doesn't break your heart."

"Thank you." replied the silver-haired man with a laugh.

"I'm glad to know that my sister trusts me ..." he commented sarcastically. But the fact that Mari approached the subject so calmly caused him to realize that his relationship with Viktor could work.

"Yes. And I will keep the photo." The girl announced and quickly entering the house so her brother wouldn't follow her.

"As I said a few moments ago..." Viktor continued as he watched the taxi arrive. "I'm going to stay. That why I need a place to live now. What if we go out tomorrow and help me find an apartment? "

"You mean... like a date?" Yuri asked, unable to avoid a slight blush, and Viktor smile wided.

"Yes, a date. What do you say?"

"Of course, it will be fun."

"Then I'll see you tomorrow." He kissed Yuri again, hoping they wouldn't be interrupted this time. "Good night, Yuri."

"Good night, Viktor."
