YURI!!! ON ICE ~ One Shots (Multiple Ships)

Mistakes (Otayuri)

this one is one i legit dreamt about

Description: Yuri and Otabek haven't talked in months after a massive argument. When something happens during Yuri's programme, Otabek is the first by his side.

"Don't fucking talk to me again!" Yuri slammed the lid of his laptop closed, letting out a frustrated sigh and he brushed his fingers through his hair, his heart pounding in his chest.

The Russian had just been in a rather heated argument with his best friend Otabek, the two arguing over something neither one understood. Well, they did understand it, they just chose not to. Otabek had commented about how he thought Mila was a very attractive girl, and that he might try get with her. Now, this is where it takes off. It is quite known that Mila has no interest what so ever in men, and has her eye on a certain Italian skater. Otabek had meant it as a simple joke, but Yuri blew it far out of proportion. Yuri has a rather massive crush on Otabek (the Kazakh knows this, Viktor accidently told him.) and was disgusted to even think about him with another person. That's when it all blew up. After a 10 minute screaming match Yuri ended the call with slamming the lid shut, bringing us back to where we started.

The tears threatened to spill, but he would not allow it. He quickly wiped as his eyes, taking in a few deep, calming breaths as he closed his eyes. He reopened them seconds later, feeling a lot calmer over the incident. The Russian looked at the time, a sigh escaping his lips. Midnight exactly. It'd be best to head to bed now, but Yuri's mind was a wander, not being able to rest and let him get some sleep.

The months seemed to drag on by, and not one of the pair would make any attempt to talk to one another. It effected them both in skating and every day life. Yuri once again snapped a lot more, turning into a nasty and vile person like he used to be when he was a 15 year old. Otabek refused to talk to anyone he didn't have business with.

At competitions they would walk past each other like nothing ever happened between them. They acted like complete and utter strangers to each other. Everyone saw it, everyone hated it. The most beautiful friendship they had every seen blossom was now a wilted rose in a garden of thorns. Not one anyone would want to venture into.

Everytime they crossed paths, Yuri would hope and pray that Otabek would stop him and pull him to the side, hopefully to talk things out. Otabek hoped the same for Yuri, but neither one ever did it in fear the other was over them. Viktor and Yuuri often commented on the matter, and had months and months grying to rekindle the two's friendship. They'd talked to both sides to see what exactly had gone on between the two, and it seemed ever so stupid. Yuuri knew that Otabek had the fattest crush on Yurio alive; he'd told him personally and asked for advice on how to whoo the blonde. Yurio had accidentally told Viktor that he really liked Otabek, but also told him that tere was no point in trying to work anything out between them as Otabek clearly wasn't interested in him.

After all, who would be interested in someone who was foul-mouthed, nasty and an all around immature asshole?

Otabek, thats who. He saw past all that. He managed to see past his flaws and see Yuri behind the shield he had created. The side of him where he was soft and cared, where he talked endlessly about Yuuri and Viktor, adding in insults every now and then to make it seem like he didn't care. The way his face lit up when he talked about something he liked, and the way he smiled whenever Otabek complimented him on something. He saw through that. Yuri was a rose; his thorns put up a protectove barrier, but once you get past that you see how soft and beautiful he really is.

Now, after almost half a year of no communication, they were back in close range. The Rostelecom Cup, where skaters from all around came to compete in high level skating. It was pressure filled and you could feel it from the moment you stepped into the rink. Even the most skilled of skaters had their nervousness about them, but everyone looked wonderful.
