Rise To The Top (victuri)

This is the one!

Victor's Pov:

I decided to take Yuri out shopping to look for a couple of sets of new costumes to go with our soon-to-be routines for the upcoming Grand Prix. Despite the large crowd of people and noise from the traffic, it was fairly peaceful being with Yuri again, and not having him locked up in our apartment for days on end. 

"Victor look!!!! What are these they look delicious!!" My thoughts come back to reality as Yuri grabs my hand and drag's me across the street to a small café. 

"They are Khvorost's (Angle Wings), a Russian delicacy, made out of a sweet dough and covered in powdered sugar" I could see his eyes beginning to widen with delight, I already knew exactly what was about to happen.

"Can we get some Victor? since I'm here I may as well dine in your cuisine" Yep exactly how I expected this to go, I begin to laugh and roll my eyes. Yuri can get distracted so easily.

"Ok my little piggy, but make it quick we have to get to the costume store before it closes" We enter the café and look around for a quiet table before taking a seat, we talked about potential ideas and storylines for our routines for about 10 minutes before a waiter came over to our table. 

"What can I get for you two gentlemen today", the waiter pulling out a small notepad from her pocket to take down the order notes

"Can we please get two chia teas and a serving of your Khvorost, thank you" Finishing up our order before she then walked away to the front desk. About another 10 minutes pass by before we both heard someone yelling at us from across the café.

Yuri Pov:

As Victor and I continued to talk over some hot tea and sweet treats all of a sudden someone was yelling out my name from across the store.

"Yurriiii!!!" both of us startles and are slightly embarrassed and turn our heads to the front entrance. It was Phichit, but what was he doing over in Russia he was meant to be training for the upcoming Grand Prix.

"Hey Phichit, what a surprise to see you here. Aren't you mean to be back in Japan training?"

"Oh shoot I knew I forgot to mention something, everyone has decided to join the duo's competition this year, you didn't think you and Victor could just run away from us could you" Phichit pats my shoulder while saying that last part of his sentence in an almost mocking attire. "Plus the first round of the competition starts in Russia". Russia? thinking to myself, I haven't heard anything about where the first round of competitions was..... I shoot a glare over at Victor knowing exactly what he kept the information from me. 

"Oh - yeah I must have forgotten" trying to save my ass from looking like an idiot.  "But what do you mean by everyone?" my curiosity took over my mind.

"Everyone from the last Grand Prix, Chris, Kenjiro, Jacques, Georgi and even Yurio. We all still have a dream to overtake the one and only Victor you know" Phichit laughed slightly towards the end of his sentence.

"Looks like we might have some competition then" standing up from my seat to give Phichit one last final hug before we departed we still had a few stops to get to before closure. 

We start walking down the shopping mall street looking for the shop 'Cool and whipping' which is the main costume shop Victor say's he gets all his costumes from. Supposably his cousin owns the place, so would make sense why all his costumes are fantastic.  We enter the store and I spot a small redhead girl behind the counter.

Victor's POV:

We enter my cousin's store 'Cool and whipping', she has made all my costumes since I began skating, the most talented sempstress I know.  "Julie" waving my hand walking close to the counter.
