You didn't sign up for this.

You had come into terms with Victor being here and you were even a bit psyched that he had officially started coaching for real...but you sure as heck did not like the fact that you had to get dragged into a competition that you have absolutely nothing to do with in the first place.

You were all up for him teaching you a few things about skating but you didn't like having to perform along with the two Yuri's all of a sudden.

Stupid Victor and his crazy ideas.

Of course, he wouldn't have any of your excuses. Despite your protests, he wouldn't budge on his decision.

Just your luck.

The three of you were there by the skirting watching Victor carefully as he was about to skate to Agape.

It sent shivers down your spine just watching it.

Agape was in the simplest sense, unconditional love.

It was self-sacrificing and uncalculating. It was the sweet and innocent sort of love. It was love without restrictions.

The first thing that comes into mind when speaking of such love was a parent's love for a child.

You scoffed as soon as the thought came to you.

You were beginning to have some second thoughts about that.

Agape may be 'unconditional love' but to you, it also had a hint of doubt.

You did your best to focus only on the program. Victor's routine was soulful but at the same time it was also a difficult program.

You wonder how Yurio would manage to pull it off.

"It goes kind of like that. What do you guys think?" He smiled as he directed his question to the youngest of you three.

"Yeah. I pretty much got it," Yurio responded arrogantly. He confidently stared ahead as he leant against the railing.

You huffed, crossing your arms over your chest. The kid had to be knocked down a peg or two.

You were brought out of your musings when you heard someone start clapping eagerly.

"Wow! That was absolutely amazing!" Yuko applauded.

"Who the heck is she?" Yurio asked.

You slapped him at the back of his head. He glared at you as he rubbed the afflicted area, "Show some respect, brat."

"Well, this is Yuko," Yuri intervened, "She's one of the staff that works here. We all used to skate together years ago."

"I'm really sorry for interrupting practice," she apologised with a light blush tinting her cheeks, "It's just that it was so beautiful that I couldn't help myself."

"Tch. Whatever." Yurio grumbled.

You slapped him at the back off his head again.

"Ouch! What the hell?!"

"Alright pay attention, you three. Here's the next one," Victor called out.

Yuri tensed a bit but remained focus. He had to be. This was a program Victor had made especially for him to skate to.

With this in mind, he kept his eyes glued to the silverette, intensely watching each move he made.

The moment the music started, it all went downhill from there.

Eros was the other side of the coin. It focused more on sexual love. It was pleasure layered upon pleasure until you are left drowning in ecstasy.

Victor's rendition of Agape was nothing short of beautiful but this one takes the cake.

It was pure seduction.

You and Yuri were too transfixed with the man who was over flowing with sex appeal to notice that Yuko was on the ground with Yurio cradling her head. The woman was losing so much blood through her nose, it might have been unhealthy, "Um...I need a little help here!" Yurio called out but it fell to deaf ears.

"He's so hot...I doubt any woman could resist his charms..." Yuko mumbled incoherently.

You would be lying if you said you weren't even the least bit affected by his performance.

Even Yuri wasn't able to take his eyes off of Victor.

"Man...there's so much Eros in this routine that it could even get a man pregnant..."

You suddenly faced Yuri and raised a brow, "Wait, don't tell me that Victor managed to knock you up with his skating?"

His face turned a hundred shades of red and started flailing his arms around wildly, "N-no! I mean ye- no!" He nearly sank to the floor, "I can't do this..."

"And why not?" You asked, "I think you're more than capable of pulling this off."

He couldn't believe his ears, "Y-you really think so?"

"You just need to be a turn on, Yuri." It wasn't like he wasn't already a turn on. There were many little things that he did which catches your fancy. He just needed to have the confidence to flaunt it out more.

"But are you su-"

"I know so," you reassured, "I know that you're passionate and driven and maybe with just the right push," you licked your lips temptingly, "...alluring." You were trying to get a reaction out of him and Yuri didn't fail to deliver.

"(Y-Y/N)!"

You laughed. Yuri was just too cute for his own good.

He became a sputtering mess and the worst part was, he wasn't able to watch the whole of Victor's performance due to your little stint.

"Well Yuri," he placed one hand on his hip, making a simple pose look like a picture straight out of a supermodel magazine, "What did you think about that?"

Yuri was flustered, "I...err...I-It is very Eros!" He responded anticlimactically.

Victor seemed content with his answer...or lack there of. He nodded, "Alright then, let's move on to the program composition," he motioned for Yuri to join him on the ice, "which quads can you land?"

Yuri skated over to where Victor was and then stood at rapt attention, "Um...I could do the toe loop and I could land a Salchow in practice but never in a competition," he held his head high, "B-but I could try...what do you think?"

"I think you should just stick to your fundamentals."

"Eh?"

"I wouldn't like to waste time in teaching you something that you are not sure you could even do," Victor explained, "I'll go work with Yurio first."

You wanted to reprimand Victor for his choice of words. Weren't coaches supposed to be encouraging their students?

"You've shown me that you have got what it takes to win Yuri. What I want to know is why haven't you done so yet?"

He fiddled with his fingers and looked away, Yuri's voice was getting softer with each word, "I guess it is because of my lack of confidence..."

You frowned as he said this.

Confidence has never been Yuri's strong suit and he has always struggled with it. He was easy to be discouraged, always found himself to be under par and often compared himself to others (which was a habit that you wanted to get rid off).

You wanted to know just how is it you could help him with this.

Yuri was also left with a lot of hard questions to answer as well...and one of them was, 'just what does Eros mean to him?'.
