Your blood 》Yuri On Ice

Dripping

Victor Nikiforov

"Wow! That tasted amazing!" I clap my hands together and flash a satisfied grin to Yuri's mother, the woman who made this dish of the heavens.

"Isn't it wonderful!?" Yuri looks over the moon to see me enjoying the Katsudon. His favourite dish.

"Well its my favourite now too!" I chirp happily. For some reason, Yuris mother is giving me a strange look. have I done something strange? I shouldn't think so.

"Hey Yuri! Let's have this again after you progress to round three!"

There's no reply.

He fell asleep, snoring deeply into his clean bowl.

"I guess I've worked him hard today..."
I smile to myself as I pick a rice grain off of Yuris cheek and eat it. He's so cute when he sleeps.

"Why are you so kind?" I turn to his mum with a soft frown on my face, I wasn't expecting to be asked something like that.

"Whatever do you mean?" I tilt my head in question. I don't know what to tell her, that it's who I am?

"Its not in your nature to be kind, you're a predator" I can't help but smile at the shriveled woman's fierce words. I know what the issue is; she hasn't met any vampires with a healthy level of humanity like me. And for that, she's being prejudice.

"You'd be surprised how many of us are just like any other human Mrs Katsuki" I smile broadly at the suspicious woman as I stack all the plates on the table. In my head I know that vampires don't come like I do. And I don't think that because I'm special, I think that because I'm different.

"Listen up Mr Nikiforov; Yuri is a very fragile person, if you break him I won't forgive you" I turn my attention away from the threatening woman and to Yuri's sleeping face. She's right. He is fragile. But it's not me he needs protecting from, because I'll be the one always protecting him.

"Mrs Katsuki... I would never hurt your son, and if anybody tried to I would break their face" I smile so that my vicious words don't seem as bad. I wouldn't want her to know my vampiric side. The side that really is preditorial. The side that we all have.

It's a blessing and a curse.

"Could you tell me more about Yuri? About his past?" His mother sighs profoundly and looks me dead in the eyes before begging to speak;

"The only thing good in Yuris life is his skating.  He grew up with only Yuko as a friend, every other kid he knew bullied him. Ever since then his life has been a series of unfortunate events... last year... he lost his father, he lost his dog, he lost the Grand Prix and... he almost lost his life"

The whole world stops. Along with my heart.

Yuri could have died? There was a chance that he wouldn't be snoring right in front of me now? A chance that we wouldn't have met? A chance that he wouldn't exist on this planet now?

"What happened?" My voice is chocked, not to my surprise, i feel chocked. Suffocated.

"...He attempted suicide... He was so close... he was on anti-depressants, and one day he thought to pop six rather than one"

I don't know if I can listen any longer, hearing this, hearing Yuri has suffered so much... it's so painful.

"I'm sorry Victor... I've treated you so disrispectfully, when you're the one who saved my sons life" I blink away the water that is accumulating in my eyes and stare at her in shock. I saved him? I didn't even know him well.

"Just after he had put the pills in his mouth one of your interviews came on to the tv. I don't know what it is you said or did, but It stopped him from swallowing them"

Me? I stopped him from swallowing the vehicle to his death? I'm the reason he still exists before me?

I can no longer hold back the tears. I let them cascade down my face, and for the first time in years; I'm crying.

Yuri was going to die. And I saved him.

"Try not to mention this to Yuri. He wouldn't want you to know" I nod slowly, not taking my eyes off him.

"And I'll be staying with Minako as of tonight, Yuri worries about me too much. I don't want distract him from the GP." His mother slowly pushes herself to her feet and drags herself to  her bedroom door before turning around once more.

"Victor.  Take care of Yuri for me" and then she's gone, into the confines of her room.

I will take care of him.

To think such a precious person was so self distructive... it's terrifying. The thought of him doing it again is terrifying. I won't let that happen.

"Yuri... I won't let you do that again" I whisper to the sleeping beauty as I brush his hair out of his face.

I go over to him, hook my arm around his waist, and carry him into his room. I try my best to juggle carrying him and pulling back his bed sheet before laying him carefuly on his matress.

"Yuri, what is it about you that makes me care so much?  How did you capture my heart?"

AN: I apologize for the shortness. The chapters do get longer though. I'll update more to make up for it.

Also, I have a question for you; how would you feel about Yuri and Victor having some sort of sex in a future chapter? I'm writing it now and it's a good opportunity for it if you'd like to see it. Comment your opinions please! (Btw my smut skills aren't amazing so just remember that)

I'd also like to remind you that I love all you voters, commenters and readers. Just saying.

See ya in the next level!
