I Can Skate [YurioxReader] ~Completed~

Bonding time

Dat U

The echoes of constant beeps were ringing through my ears. As I gently open my eyes, adjusting to the light, I notice a particular blond sleeping on my lap. I looked at my surroundings. I was in a hospital.

As if on cue, a nurse came in, " oh you're awake!!!" She said in a very lively and cheerful manner. "How do you feel?!" She said, coming right up close to my nose.

"J-Just fine, thank you. Could you tell me why I'm here?" I ask, still uncomfortable and groggy.

"Why, you were in an accident my dear."

Wait WHAT?!

"Wait and accident!?" I say jolting up. "Am I dead? Is this heaven? Who are you? Are you Jesus?! Ow! That hurts!"

"No dear, you are luckily still be alive, but you have broken several bones and got yourself many other injuries." The nurse says softly.

"Oh, well, what injuries do I have?"

"You have two broken ribs, a broken ankle, a few dislocated fingers, several cuts and bruises, and you suffered a slight coma." She said.

"Wh-What do you mean by 'slight coma'?"

"Why, you've been asleep for a few days, 4 to be exact. You were competing in the Grand Prix, so I believe the Final competition is tomorrow. But, due to your injuries-"

"Does that mean- DOES THAT MEAN I CANT SKATE ANYMORE!?"

"Not for a while, no. It will take several months for you to heal up. You should be back in shape in around six months, so in June. Or so we hope. We wouldn't want to keep you from your passion, of course."

"That - that means I can't skate in the Grand Prix!" I say as my voice begins to break.

"Dear, do you remember what happened?" The nurse says. I think for a while, until it hit me. The car, Yuri, the screams, the tears. Oh my God, where is Yuri!? The body that was sleeping on my lap begins to stir. They start to rise. I can't see their face, because their blonde locks are covering their face. Wait, YURI! I see his face, and he has bags under his eyes. The stress is clearly reflecting on his skin. His eyes seemed so empty, until they focused on me and they lit up.

"NIKO!" He cried out, and began to sob as his arms wrapped around me. "You fucking idiot! I thought you died!" He said between sobs (sorry if he is being a little OOC).

"Hey, hey, Yura, I'm okay now. See? I'm not dead. I'm fine. Besides, it could have been you who would have been hit by that car, and who knows what would have happened then." I say softly, trying to reassure him.

"But I don't care. You could have died and I would have never forgiven myself for being so careless and stupid." He said, in the quietest and softest voice I have ever heard him. I pull away from the hug and turn to see him. He was looking down, so I cup his cheeks lift his head up with my small hands and look him in the eyes. He looked so... vulnerable. His eyes were overflowing with tears, shining their beautiful green colour. He looked worried, scared, sad, happy, and angry. He looked into my own, tears still streaming down his face. He violently wiped away his tears and sat there looking blankly at my plushies which had been brought by my visitors.

"If I had been hit," Yuri starts, "You would have kept thinking to yourself that you could have helped. You could have done something to stop me from getting hurt. Is that right?" He asks looking up at me. I nod. "Well just think about how I have felt for the past 4 days. I felt stupid for not moving out of the way. I felt like a fool for not looking where I was going. I-" I stop him from speaking further by shoving some of my sweets I found on my bedside table into his mouth.

"Ok enough of this sentimental crap. I don't know how much of this I can take. I can't take this much at once." I say, my eyes starting to tear up. "SO!" I shout, "let's do something like 21 truths or whatever you wanna." I say, trying to light up the mood. I see Yuri smile and nod.

After some quality bonding time, Viktor, Yuri, Mimi and a few other competitors come and join us. As Viktor bawls his eyes out, I receive plenty of "How are you"s and "I hope you get better soon"s and "does it hurt"s. I say I'm fine, when really it hurts a lot. Not just the injuries, but the feeling that I won't be able to finish the competition and stand in that podium.

As the nurse comes in and guides the visitors out, I grab Yuri's hand indicating to him that I want him to stay a little. I'm a bit flustered that I grabbed his hand, I mean. Even though I might have been denying it a little first, I feel like I might like him. Like, like like him.

"U-Um Yura." I say meekly.

He turns and faces me, slightly surprised.

"Yeah?"

"Since I won't be competing in the Grand Pix Final", I start, taking a deep breath, "please! Show me something beautiful tomorrow!" I finally shout. My hand is still holding his, and my head is down, hiding my tears even if it is making them more obvious than they already are. "I-I hate being in this hospital bed when I could be skating, but what I hate even more is seeing people go down because of me! So please, show me something I won't ever forget." I say looking up and trying to give him my best smile.

As we are both in tears, I let his hand go as he turns to leave. He stops at the doorway and says, "Don't worry, I promise I will give you a beautiful performance that you won't ever forget."
