Yuri POV

Its starting to get cold out and my side still stings but I finally manage to get up and walk, well if you can call it walking.

I've been 'walking' along the beach for about a quarter of an hour now and I'm maybe halfway back to town but I'm already exhausted and considering sitting back down. Thats when out of nowhere a dog jumps on me, I fall backwards onto the sand and wince at the pain and the dog starts licking my face. There's a man running after the dog he's about 100 meters away and keeps yelling "sorry", I squint to see him past the brightness of the sunset and as he gets closer I realise the man to be, victor.

Victor POV

How typical of Makkachin to do something like this, I run as fast as I can towards my dog and today's victim. But then I see a mop of black hair over Makkachin's brown fur and my heart skips a beat. Could it be? "Yuri?" Oh ma gawd

Makkachin finally moves and I see before me the raven haired boy, dressed in my clothes. I look down at him and he avoids my eye contact.

"H-Hi Victor" he stutters. I drop Makkachin's lead and ball and engulf Yuri in my arms. I hear him try to suppress a groan and remember he is hurt so I let go but instead take his hands in mine, they feel like ice, he must be freezing. I take my coat off and wrap it around his shoulders and he smiles at me thankfully. I take his hands again and rub them until they're warmer then help the boy to his feet and wrap his arm around my shoulder holding him up so he can walk.

"Victor, I umm... I'm sorry about before-"

"I don't want to hear it" I cut him off "we'll talk later once you've eaten something and warmed up."

He nods at this and we continue to walk back towards my house, Makkachin plodding along behind us.

When we arrive home I lay Yuri back down on my bed and sit on the mattress next to him.

"You wait here, ill go get you something hot to eat" I say

I return a few minutes later with a hot bowl of soup and hand it to Yuri who is now sitting up looking around my room at the posters.

"Do you ice skate?" He asks in a soft tone.

"I used to" I reply

"Why did you stop?" He enquires

"It wasn't by choice if thats what you're asking"

"Please Victor tell me"

"I got hurt ok, I was stupid. Much like you today might I add. Climbing out of my window seriously Yuri what were you thinking?"

"Don't try and pin all the blame on me victor, you've been acting super weird lately. For Christ's sake you keep staring at me and then today I'm half NAKED and you think you can just go ahead and... touch me" Yuri yelled back at me.

I felt my face heat up at that last comment, I calm myself down and try and speak rationally "I'm sorry Yuri perhaps you're right. Do you think maybe we can put all this behind us?"

He looks at me sourly but agrees. I tell him to eat up his soup and he does. I go and wash up while he gets ready for bed, I then do the same.

"Victor" he says from my bed "if you'd like I could sleep on the floor?"

"No its fine you need the comfort more than me." I shout back from the bathroom.

I lay down on the smaller mattress on the floor and look up at Yuri, he doesn't appear to be asleep yet so I decide to talk to him. I want to know more about him...
