Aki Live! (Yuri on Ice Fanfiction)

The Cup of China

I was watching them from a while away. They were really just blobbs, but I could hear what they were saying. Nagisa was sittibg on my shoulders, and had his 3DS resting on my head as hell was enfrossed in Mario cart. Then the blond one just got a bit too close to my brother. I stormed over. The closer I got I noticed where his hand was. I approached them, pulling my brother away, and stabbing between the two with my arms crossed. Everyone around was confused, except for Yuri, he was embarrassed.

"Aki!" it took a moment before he reconized me, but Phichit did, and came over and gave me a hug. "I didn't know you had a kid?" Nagisa and I laughed in synchronization.

"This is my coach's kid," I told him. Like me having a kid, like I am a kid.

"She's my sister," Yuri said a bit too loudly out of embarrassment. I turned to find my brother talking to the swiss skater. I remembered him from watching skating, Chris. Appeariently he oozed sexiness, as Mari puts it, I don't see it though. He was looking at me with surprise and contemplation.

"Don't even think about it," I hissed at him. He took a step back. Smart.

"Ah, Akira," Victor walked up to us, "Did you grow taller?" He joked, commenting on how Nagisa was sittinf on my shoulders.

"Hey I'm short, I get it," I commented, not really caring about the joke, "It just means I'm closer the where it hurts." I said it with the most innocent look on my face.

"I'm I the only one who gets reminded of someone by her?" Phichit asked. The other skaters nodded. They all just stopped and looked at me.

"Yurio!" Victor decorated, he was the one most familiar with my best friend.

"Well people do tend to act like the others they are around a lot," I shrugged, causing Nag is a to almost fall. He didn't care though. I then realized the mistake I made. I spun around to see my brother and the Russia with wide smirks.

"You vet been spending a lot of time with Yurio?" Yuri asked, making sure they heard me correctly. I just glared at them. I was getting out of there.

"Alright, screw you two," I sighed, "Yura says hi, and good luck on your performance, Im going to go find Naomi now."

"Yura?" they asked at the same time. I groaned and walked away. For someone who loved teasing people, I hare being teased.

I was pacing back and fourth in the girls bathroom. I had my headphones in and was listening to my short program song on repaeat I needed tobget into my system. Not to mention I just threw up from nerves. I hadn't eaten anything that morning, so it just consisted of clear, bruinf stomachs acid. I could still taste it on the back of my throat.

I was running through my program in my head, every step, every spin, every jump. The hardest jump I was allowed to do was triple, as no other female skater ever did quads. I was running what everyone was expecting from me through my head. A couple stumbles, probably a fall. Should I do what's expected, or should I do what I can to surprise the audience. Yeah, surprise them, make them remeber me. Cause I was only ever me on the ice. Gesh, I'm turning into Victor.

Someone entered the bathroom. I turned on my heel to find my coach. I pulled out on ear bud to hear what she had to say. "Keep it in," she hissed at me, not wanting me to have a panic attack, "But it's almost time for you to go." She wrapped an arm around my shoulder and led me through the halls. She had taken my glasses from me so I couldn't see all the people around me. Once we were beside the ice, I scanned thr crowd. I was looking for a blob of gray hair, Victor, since I knew my brother would be with him. I couldn't find it, before Naomi pulled my head away from the crowd. I saw her shaking her head in a scolding motion.

The skater before me got off the ice. I was up. I shed off my jacket and pulled out my headphones. "Use you're sigh to you're advantage," she told me, gripping the side of my face so I would only look at her. "It's just you, the ice, and the music." I nodded. The ice and the music. The two parts of me. My heart and soul.

I skated out to the center of the ice. and got prepared. Once the music started so did I.

Music. "You got it!" Yuri cheered. I had just played my first entire song on my violin from memory. We were both just happily dancinf around in the main room.

"Maybe you can start playing music for the guests," Dad joked. We both just glanced at him a bit. We knew he ment well though.

"No, she's gonna wrire a song for me to skate to!" Yuri declared.

Skating. I glided across the ice, moving one foot across the other, and gladiator back, causing me to speed up. I then lainched myself up, and spun once, landing on my left foot.

"You did it!" Yuri and Yuko cheered. We had been working on me beinf able to land jumps for over a month now. They both skated over to me and picked me up in a group hug.

Music. "That was amazing!" Yuri declared, "If we weren't on the roof I would have gotten up and danced." I had just played him the firsr song I ever wrote. It was solely on my guitar, but it was my baby. "You should write more."

Skating. "Did you do what I think you just did!?" Yuko freaked out, and helped me off the ice.

"Yeah," I nodded timidly, "I've been trying to do a quad for a while now. I still can't land them."

"Screw landing," she shrugged that off, "You had enough rotations. If you just get right back up, who cares. You've done enough. YOU CAN DO QUADS!!"

Music and Skating. "What are you doing?" Mari asked me. I froze, hoping she was like a Trex and couldn't see me unless I moved. She didn't.

"I want to see if I can skate to my song," I told her timidly. It was ten at night, and I snuck out to the Ice Castle.

"Then skate," she told me, pressing play on the Ipod I had conected to the speaker. I started skating. It felt like notjinf I had ever done before. I was finally myself.

I heard applause around me, and I scared my blurry vision across the crowd. I waved and smiled as I made my way to the kiss and cry. "You didn't fall!" Naomi freaked out, grabbing my shoulders and shaking me.

After the competition was over I was walking out to go find Naomi and go back to the hotel. "Hey Akira!" someone called out to me I turned to fibd one of the other female competeors running up to me. Her name was Jena of I remembered correctly. She had long blond hair and stunnibf blue eyes. She was from France if I remebered correctly. "Me along with some other girls are going out for hot pot, want to join us?"

I was slightly paniced, but quickly thought through it. "I need to check in with my coach, but sure." I shrugged.

"Great," she said with a false smile, "We'll wait for you at the entrance. Ah revoir." She then ran off with a stereotupical giggle.
