"Ah,Maki—Hurry up,or you'll be late for your gala!"Himuro warned as he knocked on the bathroom
"Ehhh?!Wait—I can't find my Jacket!"Maki was shouting on the other side of the door
"Jacket?What kind is it?"
"The one I got when I first became a figure skater,it's black with blue lines and has the Japanese Flag behind it..."Judging from Maki's tone,she sounded like she was about to cry
"I have it here,in my hands..."Himuro sighs as the door quickly opens and Maki steals the jacket out of Himuro's hands and hugs it protectively
"Mou~Why didn't you say so earlier,Tatsuya?"Maki pouted at him as he sighed
"Anyway,let's go now—Your partner is probably waiting for you"Himuro says as he gets in his car,Maki follows after and they drive away
Today,Himuro had finally agreed to watch one of Maki's–His girlfriend's–Performances
Normally,he wouldn't agree and would just stay at home,But today Maki pestered him for quite a while until he gave up
"What's this partner of yours called again?"
"Hey,It's rude—Don't you dare forget,Hanyu's name!It's Yuzuru Hanyu!"Maki scolds him slightly as they park
"Yuzuru Hanyu?What kind of girl is she?"
"Girl?..."Maki doesn't answer and just walk inside to her changing room
"Tatsuya,My skates..."
"Here you go~"
Of course,being the legendary Maki's boyfriend,Himuro was permitted to go inside the rink's private areas for skaters
"Maki!Is Maki here yet?!We're on in 10!"A male's voice shouted as he ran from person to person
Until he spotted Himuro,Looking at him,Hanyu walked to him and asked him
"Have you seen Nishikino Maki?"Hanyu asked,At first Himuro was quite shocked
He had black locks that were drizzled around his face cutely,and he looked hot too—His facial features were definitely worth looking at too
"Uhm,Maki?She's changing in here..."Himuro pointed to the door behind him with a sweatdrop
"Ah,Thank you–I was worried she wasn't here!"Hanyu breathed out a sigh in relief,that's when Himuro noticed his skating clothes and the skates he was wearing
"You're a figure skater?"Himuro looked down at his feet,gesturing to the skates he wore
"Ah,I'm Yuzuru Hanyu!I'm Nishikino Maki's partner but I do compete in the men's singles too!"Hanyu introduced as he smiled at Himuro
"You're Yuzuru Hanyu?!"Himuro looked shocked as he stared at him with his mouth wide open
"Anyways—Makiiiii!~"Ignoring him,Hanyu walked past Himuro and inside Maki's changing room,not even bothering to knock
"Oh,Hanyu–Sorry,I was late!"
"It's fine,It's fine!~Atleast you made it,We're on in 10 minutes"
"Eh?!W-Wait,I still need to put on my skates!"
"Take your time,Here–I'll help you!~"
"Ah,Thanks!Could you get them out from my bag over there?"
"No problem!"
Himuro was still shocked speechless,If he'd knew that Maki's partner was a guy all along,he surely would've tagged along in all of her matches
"Nishikino-san,Yuzuru-san—You're up!"One of the staff knocked on the door and Maki and Hanyu came out
