Hi! I'm Katsuke Yuuri! Since the Grand Prix Final, Viktor has been my coach and closest friend. Yurio decided to stay as well. If you asked me, I don't think he could bear leaving us behind, though, I could be wrong. We stayed at the Yu-topia Katsuke for a while before finding a house at a decent price and moved into it. The move was because it was cramped and the overabundance of fans. We still went to the Ice Castle to practice. Yurio seemed to be more eager to practice unlike before. When it came to food, though, Yurio usually ate before us, Viktor and I would have meals together. Something was different though, I couldn't quite name it, but it was on the tip of my tongue.
I found myself staring at the the matching rings Viktor and I have, smiling to myself. Viktor never noticed, at least I don't think he ever did. He seemed to do the same, or if he did notice, he smiled too. Nonetheless, we never took them off.
Today, something felt off. I wasn't sure what. It was off, yet it felt normal at the same time. At breakfast I found my eyes wandering around the room. It was a rather simple room for two figure skaters and a coach. Well, a coach who was a five-time world champion, that is. Even now, I tend to fanboy over Viktor. Old habits are hard to quit.
My gaze eventually settled on Viktor. Somehow, I found him graceful both on and off the ice. His every action graceful in its own beautiful way.
Yuuri, what the hell are you thinking?! Half my brain screamed.
"What? I'm not going to deny he's beautiful. Look at him, he's perfect." I whispered to myself, hoping he hadn't heard anything. I didn't want him to know that's what I thought of him.
"Yuuri, did you say something?" Viktor asked. Damn, he heard me.
"No." I said. He sighed.
"We should go practice. I know we don't have to be ready for a while, but we want to be prepared." He said after a while. "Choreography and music takes a while, we can't have you dancing to Eros again, can we?"
"But I kind of like Eros now. It grew on me." I said. Viktor smiled at my comment.
"I see." He said, it seemed as if he couldn't wipe the smile off his face. "I wonder if Yurio grew close to Agape, then." He chuckled. I loved his smile.
Yuuri, when you're done fanboying over Viktor, I believe you should stop and think about what you're thinking. That same half of my mind said. I knew what I was thinking. I've come to terms with my feelings, knowing, he's only my coach. However, just saying "coach" kind of hurt. I'd taken more of an interest than I though I would Initially. I deemed it okay only if I admired in secret and never mentioned it But, it became more than just me fanboying over Viktor very quickly. Different thoughts filled my head, reminders of things that happened during our climb to a gold medal in the Grand Prix Final. Too bad we only ended up with a silver one.
I remembered Viktor's warmth and now, often used that as motivation.
Repeat that sentence, shouldn't you do something about it?
I used Viktor's warmth as motivation...
Oh. I should probably tell him those feelings, shouldn't I?
DUH!
