The Connection//*DISCONTINUED*

Chapter 22

Hello hello! Back again with another chapter today.

Viktor's POV

Before I could react, Yuuri pushes Chris out the door, telling me to stay inside. The door slams in my face, surprising me and making me flinch. Standing up on my tiptoes, I peek out of the widow and look at Yuuri and Chris. They seemed to be in a heated discussion, their faces bright red, trying not to yell at each other. Regaining their composure, Chris starts to sneer at Yuuri, and they rotate until Chris's back is to me.

I open the door, deciding to sneak up and tackle Chris. Yuuri shoots glares in my direction, telling me not to do it. It seems that Chris doesn't notice, because he keeps talking to Yuuri about how he should join Anima Industries. I ignore Yuuri's glares and creep towards Chris. When I am behind him and about to grab him, he whips around and grabs my chin. His nails dig into my cheeks as he tightens his grip on my face, snarling at me.

"And you," he growls, "Viktor's pet." He tightens his grip yet agin and pulls me closer to him, baring his teeth at me. "He doesn't need you. Your completely useless. We should just use you for zombie experimentation." I try to wriggle out of his grasp, but he tightens his grip even more, drawing blood from my face. "Your just a little dog who can't do anything by himself. You-" He gets cut off by Yuuri, his fist slamming into Chris's face. I stumble back when Chris finally unhands me, and Yuuri crouches down to the ground where I lay.

Chris stands up and snarls again, and Yuuri stand up in front of me and growls at him. "Leave him alone. Don't ever lay a hand on him again, or I won't be so kind next time. Now get away." Yuuri spits at him and Chris leave, getting in a car along the road and driving away. Yuuri helps me off of the ground, leading me into the house, closing and locking the door behind us. He goes to the kitchen and comes back to the living room with a way washcloth. 

As the washcloth runs over my face, I grab Yuuri's free hand and squeeze it tightly, bringing it up to my face and kissing the back of it. I mumble an apology to Yuuri and he drops the washcloth, resting his forehead against my shoulder. I press our palms together, lining our soulmarks up, sending tingles throughout our bodies. Yuuri looks at me with a smile, pressing our palms closer together. I lean in and rub our noses together, making Yuuri smile and giggle.

"I'm sorry my love." He whispers, rubbing our palms together. I look at him in confusion, and he continues. "I'm sorry I didn't stop him earlier. Its just...I was filled with so much rage, and I just froze. I should've stopped him sooner." 

"Its okay, Yuuri. I forgive you. But, for now," I say, leaning in closer to him, pressing our foreheads together, "can you tell me whats wrong?" He looks up at me in surprise,  but I can see the pain in his eyes. I lean forward and press butterfly kisses along the edge of his jaw, and I look back up at him to see him smiling again, the pain still evident in his eyes. A deep sigh escapes from his lips, and he pulls me into a tight hug. He buries his face into my shoulder, and I rub his back to comfort him.

"I'm sorry for dragging you into all of this. I know that you probably don't want to be involved in all of this. I just feel so bad about all of this. If you had never met me your mother would still be alive." Grabbing his shoulders, I push him back by the shoulders and gently put my hand on his jaw. He looks up at me, no longer trying to hide the sadness in his eyes. I press soft kisses all over his face and he giggles softly, pulling me closer to him.

"My love," I whisper, leaning in to press our foreheads back together, "I don't mind going through all of this, as long as its with you." He smiles and kisses me on the cheek, pulling me into another strong hug. "I'll cook dinner tonight." I say suddenly and Yuuri just nods. I stand up and walk to the kitchen, deciding to make French toast for supper, with some bacon. I lay all of the ingredients on the counter, getting ready to make supper.

From the living room, I hear music and I brush it off until I hear Yuuri's beautiful voice singing along to it. I drift to the living room unconsciously, wanting to hear Yuuri's melodic voice some more. I enter the living room, leaning against the wall when I get there. my eyes widen in surprise when I see Yuuri playing.......a piano!?!? How did I not notice that before? His beautiful voice cascades from his mouth, filling the entire room with the wonderful sound of his voice mingling with the sound of the piano. My breath hitches when I listen to him, thinking about the lyrics of the song.

"Wise men say,

Only fools rush in,

But I can't help falling in love with you.

Shall I stay?

Would it be a sin,

If I can't help falling in love with you."

I walk over to him, mouth agape from hearing his beautiful singing and playing. He continues, unaware that I am in the room with him.

"Like a river flows

Surely to the sea,

Darling so it goes

Some things were meant to be.

Take my hand

Take my whole life too,

For I can't help falling in love with you."

He pours so much emotion into the song, and I can tell all of it is directed at me. All of his love flows through me like a strong current, bringing tears to my eyes. I walk up behind Yuuri, tears of joy steadily streaming down my face. I smile and fall to my knees behind him, wrap my arms around his stomach, and bury my face into his back. Yuuri flails in surprise, falling onto me. When we fall to the ground, I let go of him, turn him onto his back, and wrap my arms back around him.

"I love you so freaking much, Yuuri Katsuki. So freaking much." I bury my head in his shoulder and hug him tighter. 

Woooo another chapter, but its fairly short. Idk why I wanted to make Yuuri so skilled but I like the idea of him being good at a lot of things. Bye fam, stay sad, but not too sad!
