Heart of Glass >> Yuri on Ice [On Hold]

Chapter 3

Hello lovelies! Sorry about taking forever to update, school is horrible T_T.

Also I need to explain a few things as you might be confused. I changed the story a bit. Orginally Yuri left and trained for 4 years before immediately going to compete, but I have changed it to he trained for a little over 3 years then came back to visit for a little more then half a year then left. Also he spent about a year away from home after competing which is when he gained weight so that's why Riya is so salty, cause during this time he never texted her. Also around 7 months of spending all day everyday around each other is plenty of time for Yuri and Riya to develop a close sibling relationship which is how I imagined it.

I hope this clears some things up if you were confused. I'll try to update more this weekend because during the week school is horrible and I don't have time for anything.

Riya's POV

I'm known to be a very kind person and it's my motto to always smile, but I do feel pain. And right now I feel a lot. I'm not mad at Yuri-san, but I'm hurt. For 10 months, almost 11 he didn't answer my texts. I only found out he was coming home from Minako.

I want to talk to him, but I feel like I shouldn't. If he didn't answer, doesn't that mean he's gotten tired of me? "Riya, why don't you come talk to Yuri?" Hiroko, Yuri's mother says. She means well, but I've always had a certain worry of not being enough. Hence the reason I tried so hard in music.

"He does want you over there. Yuri isn't very good at expressing himself, and worries about many things." I know she's right but looking over at him laughing and eating his favorite meal, I sometimes can't help but feel as if I'm intruding. But I want to talk to him.

"Alright I will. I know what you mean Hiroko." Smiling I get up to sit by Yuri-san. From behind me Hiroko says "My, I told you to just call me mom," muttering the next part "although I should be happy you even say my name without honorifics."

Smiling to myself I remember how it took months for me to call her by her given name without honorifics. "Yuri-san, may I sit here?" He jumps slightly at my sudden appearance, but once he sees me smiling normally he relaxes. "Hai Riya-onee-san."

"So why don't we have a proper conversation and you explain to us why you didn't answer Riya's texts and why you gained weight." Minako says this slightly menacingly making me worried for him.

_______________Time Skip_____________

Watching Yuri-san skate is one of my favorite past times. Seeing him skate to a choreography made by and for someone he admires, is amazing. The way he skates to it..... I don't have words. I've never watched his idol, Victor skate, but he must be a genius if he can make something this beautiful.

Yuri-san entrances me. The way he skates it is better than I could imagine. His innocence makes him more alluring, and the emotions he makes use of fill me with desire to see more.

And just for a moment, I can hear the faint sound of music in my head. Before it's gone.

I wonder.... would seeing his idol preform make me hear it again? Or does it simply need to be Yuri-san filled with emotion while skating? I don't know, but the music I'm so desperate to get, was there.

Before I know what's happening, I'm standing and clapping for Yuri-san who has just finished. I can't even hear the triplets who are saying all sorts of things, to busy thinking at a million miles per minute.

The thoughts of being able to compose again, to get my passion back, it's driving me crazy thinking of the possibilities. I practically run to the studio right next to the rink, to play again. Unlocking it with the keys the owner has so graciously given me, I quickly unpack my cello.

But I can't remember the music anymore. How did it go again? I can't.... it hurts. I start to sob at the thought of never being able to do what I want anymore. Falling to the ground, I can no longer silence my crying.

_______________Time Skip____________

After what feels like hours of crying, I pull myself together. As I walk back to the Inn, I hear yelling. "What's going on?" I ask while entering. "Riya-onee-san, help me! The triplets posted a video of me skating to Victor's choreography!" Yuri-san cries while clinging to my legs.

"What?!?!" I scream. Are they crazy?! He just got last in his first competition and they post a video? These kids have no idea what they've done. "Ok we need to calm down for now. He will obviously see it that's for sure, but you need to relax. Go to sleep and rest and we'll figure it out in the morning. Ok?" I soothingly pat his head while saying this.

This seems to calm him down. "Riya-onee-san, you're the best. Ok. I'll do that." He hugs me before heading to his room. I wish the rest of his family goodnight and try to get them to calm down as I leave. Walking home in the cold, I think about the chances of Victor coming and immediately squish the thought. There's no way he would come just because someone skated his choreography. No way

You're about to be proved wrong Riya. Finally Victor will be in the next chapter! I'm so excited. Hopefully the author's note at the beginning of the chapter helped to clear things up.

So glad to update and I'm sorry I made you wait so long. I think I might be able to update tomorrow (don't take my word 100% though). Please vote and comment as it makes me gain confidence to write more. See ya next time lovelies
