shiver shiver // yuri!!! on ice

something about the way he looked in the cold, frigid air, completely compelled by the blistering white snow conforming to the ground, captivated me.

this was where he was comfortable, where he belonged.

even when we'd left the grueling temperatures to meet a flustered katsuki again, he shone with the energy of winter. it was like the cold fed him, powered him on

i didn't understand how someone as such could be so warm. but i suppose it wasn't my place to question, either.

katsuki seemed to be similar to him in this way. training in the harsh weather hardly phased him, the desperate desire to please Victor leading him on.

we were almost alike in that sense, though i could never hope to connect the way he and Victor already had. although he hadn't had much time with him yet, frantically trying to lose the title of "little piggy".

i could feel my time with Victor running out, slowly ticking down in the most frustrating way

not yet, please.

i wasnt quite conscious of how attached i was to my soulmate's side. not until the next night that week when our elbows bumped as we ate, and the look in his eyes was enough to make even me aware of the sick desperation in the atmosphere. silence ensued, broken only when yuri pleaded about why we looked so worried.

i left before my pork cutlet bowl could grow cold. Victor's nervous laughter danced from behind me.

what could i truly be so frightened of? was i ready to let him go that simply?

not just yet. i won't give you up, Victor. .
