"Good morning!" came a voice as I stumbled into the kitchen the next morning, I turned to see Victor, my brain having to do some work to find the English words this early in the morning but I got there in the end.

"Good morning, Victor" I smiled "have you eaten breakfast yet?"

"No, not yet" he smiled at me "I didn't think it polite to help myself"

"You're our guest" I smiled "help yourself, okay? Can I make you something?"

"What's a traditional Japanese breakfast, I'd like to get to know the country I'm staying in as well!"

"I make a mean rolled omelette" I smiled

"Then I'd love that!" he beamed and chuckled, he was so kind "you're a very sweet girl"

"Thanks" I smiled as I grabbed some eggs out the freezer, there was a couple moments of quiet between us.

"I looked up why you don't skate anymore last night" he said abruptly

"O-oh?" I froze as I was about to crack an egg into the pan

"Looked painful" he said thoughtfully "are you alright now?"

I smiled slightly "Yes, thank you, I'm alright"

"You can't ever skate again?" he asked gently

"No, I'll wreck my knee" I sighed, flipping his omlette "so no, as much as I might wish I could"

"What a shame" he sighed sincerely "you're a beautiful skater"

I smiled "thank you, Victor" as I slapped his omlette on to a plate and slid it across to him

"Spasibo!"

"Huh?" I cocked an eyebrow

"Thank you" he smiled

I chuckled "douitashimashite"

He grinned as I spoke the Japanese phrase for you're welcome and started eating his omelette, I smiled slightly. I could get used to having such a nice ray of sunshine around. I walked up to my room to do some studying and check when my next shift at the cafe was next.

I sighed as I walked in from my shift a week later, stretching my arms above my head and hearing the joints in my back pop audibly. Morning shifts were going to be the death of me. I sighed as I noticed Yuri's lunch sitting on the table. He'd forgotten it. Again. I sighed, the skating rink had been jammed with people for days after it got out Victor was here helping Yuri, grabbing a hoodie from my room to conceal my face (I'd kept out of the eye of the skating community for years and I'd like to keep it that way) I grabbed his lunch to take to him.

As I got to the rink I saw it was jammed packed with people and groaned as I tried to push through, I managed to get to the front. The triplets saw it was me and let me into the building without too much hassle and I pushed me hood down with a tired puff of breath as I headed for the rink. As I pushed open the door I saw Victor and Yuri weren't alone as usual, they were with another boy - all three of them turning to look at me from the ice.

"Haru!" Victor said happily, picking up on the nickname usually reserved for people very close to me, I honestly didn't mind "to what do we owe the pleasure"

"Yuri forgot his lunch, sorry for interrupting" I said awkwardly

"Thank you for bringing it" Yuri smiled, speaking in Japanese to me as he skated to the barrier

"I'll just leave it with your bag" I said, moving away.

"Haru, have you met Yuri before?" Victor asked "you might of run into each other at Junior Competitions"

I looked over at the sour looking boy beside him "no, I don't think we have"

He clicked his tongue and looked away, I raised my eyebrows "Don't be rude, she won more medals than you did" Victor laughed and Yuri's eyes widened

"You're a skater?" he asked

"Was" I deadpanned "I'm Katsuki Haruka"

"Yuri Plisetsky" he sighed impatiently, I sighed in return and stepped away. Another skater who didn't have the time to make friends. Shocker.

"Won't you join us Haru, if you're up for it?" Victor asked

"I should go.." I said slowly "I didn't even bring my skates"

"At least stay to watch" Victor smiled "I'd like your opinion"

"O-okay" I stuttered, moving to take a seat at one of the benches at the side of the rink.
