A.N. Ok its a slightly longer one about 960 words. Enjoy :)

I bid Yuri farewell as I head to my first class, Geography. I'm completely terrible at Geography, and have no clue why I chose to do it. We have a pop quiz this lesson which we were supposed to revise for it but I got... preoccupied over the weekend.

The scores to the test come back and it turns out I did just as badly as I thought I would. I got asked to stay behind after class by the teacher who interrogated me about why I had done so badly. I just told him that I had had a busy weekend and didn't have much free time "I'll do better next time" I say.

"Victor, you're failing my class, I know about your home situation and about your accident a few years ago. And I know I can't pretend to know what its like because I'm sure it isn't easy. But you need to get serious, you've already been held back a year and unless you want to end up a 40 year old man sitting at the back of my class you need to pull yourself together, put a little effort in and do some work."

"You know nothing about me." I retort and storm out of the classroom.

I have history next, good. I look up and see Yuri waiting for me leaning against the lockers on the other side of the hall, I let go of my anger and feel a smile return to my face. I walk over to him and wrap my arms around him burying my face in his neck, he hugs me back then softly brushes my hair out of my face to look me in the eye.

"Victor? Are you ok?" He says sweetly.

"Yes I'm fine" I say whilst moving my hand slowly towards his and intertwining our fingers. I pull his hand up to my mouth and kiss it gently before I start walking towards our next class dragging him along behind me.

The day ends and I walk to go and meet Yuri outside his class. But as I approach I see Yuri walk out of the classroom but also see JJ moving towards him from the opposite direction. I run as fast as I can and make it just as JJ lays his hand on Yuri's shoulder. I shove him off and stand between them pulling Yuri behind me breathing heavily and trying to stand as tall as I can.

"Hey?! What gives?" JJ yells.

"You don't lay a hand on my Yuri." I say in a harsh tone gritting my teeth.

"Your Yuri?" He sniggers.

At this comment I completely lose it and punch him right in the jaw. He collapses onto the ground but I don't stop, I kick him in the gut over and over again. People try to pull me off but I struggle, hitting them also. I don't process anything, I'm just so angry...

Until I hear a voice.

"Victor. Stop. Victor... Victor... Stop" I snap out of it and Yuri stands there holding my fist, I look into his eyes and he looks... scared. Scared of me. I look down at my fist and my knuckles are bloody, I step backwards and fall against the lockers looking down at the floor. A teacher comes running down the hallway screaming "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!"

I freak out, turn and run, hearing Yuri calling out behind me. I run out of the school gates and slump down to the floor just outside. I close my eyes and see Yuri's hurt face, scarred in my memory, my eyes tear up and I start to cry.

Yuri POV

I run after Victor and find him sitting down leant against the school gate, he's crying. I wipe the tears from his face and he looks up at me.

"Yuri, I'm-I'm so sorry. I don't know what happened I just snapped" He sniffs and puts his hands up to his face hiding the tears from me.

I reach down grab one of his hands and pull him up but he makes no effort and as soon as I let go he falls back down.

"Victor come on, get up" I plead but he doesn't, he just sits there looking at his bloody knuckles crying. I didn't know he was so fragile, I've never seen him like this before, he had always been the strong one protecting me.

"Victor please" I beg again, but he still takes no notice of me. I suppose that means i'll have to force him to notice. With that I crouch down in front of him, pull his hands from his face and my lips collide with his. He seems shocked at first and doesn't kiss be back but then I feel his hands on my waist and he starts to put some pressure into the kiss, it was a kind, loving kiss. A minute passes and I pull away, he is no longer crying and his beautiful blue eyes are fixed on mine, searching for an answer as to why I did that.

"I-i... ummm, Victor I'm not saying what you did back there was right or that it was entirely called for. But you did it to protect me so... thank you."

"Is JJ alright?" He asks looking back down at the floor.

"He's no worse off than I was a few days ago" I say smiling "And please Victor don't blame yourself because I don't blame you, he was a bully and deserved it." I lift my shirt slightly to show victor the still present bruise on my side. He reaches out and touches it looking sadly into my eyes.

"I guess I should go and face the music." he says and leans in gently kissing me again. He then gets up and walks back towards the school leaving me on my own.


A.N. Ok so im wondering how long this story should be, should I spread it out and take a while on it or try to get to the point quickly? Plz comment thoughts.
