Chapter 5 🎉

- - - -

"Yuri?", Yuuris voice suddenly echos through the ice rink. I turn around to look at him. He was wearing his training clothes and it looks like he has just finished a run. "I thought you would call us to come and pick you up at the airport?", he asks confused.

"Shut up! You two would have made a fuss and soon I would be all over the news again! As if I want that!", I snap back and grab my crutches.

Yuuri chuckles quietly. "Well, at least let me call Victor to come and get us."

"Sure.", I mumble.

"It looks like you're feeling good?", he says nonchalantly and walksnext to me. He grabs my suitcase and bag and we step out of the icerink.

"Yeah."

"It's nice to have you back.", he smiles and lays his arm across my shoulders pulling me closer. I stumble surprised not prepared to move so suddenly.

"Oi! Stop it! Argh!", I fight back, when he ruffles through my hair. Dammit I wasn't five minutes with this stupid pig and he was already annoying me. "Let go of me already!"

"Yeah yeah!", he smiles and let go of me.

We wait in silence for Victor to arrive. During the car ride he and Yuuri are talking none stop, but after a few moments I stop listening to their conversation and return to looking out the window. It only takes a few minutes until we arrive at the onsen.

"Yuri! My mom made katsudon! Come and eat.", Yuuri calls while I was laying in my room. Unlike last time I have my own room now. It is Victors old room. Since he was sleeping more often in Yuuris room, than his own, they decided to move into one room. I was more then grateful to not have to live in the closet. And the privacy was definitely something I would need. Slowly I get down stairs, already smelling the abnormally delicious food and let my self fall down next to Yuuri. I couldn't hide a smale smile at the memory of this food.

"Yuuri. My mom made it as a welcome gift for you.", he explains. I start to eat and it's just as perfect as I remember it to be. "Tell her Thanks from me. It's really delicious."

After eating I go back to my room. I take out my small notebook and open the page my doctor wrote my trainings menu down. I sigh when I read all the different work outs. It will be rough to do them especially in the beginning. Tomorrow I will start with all this.

Before I can think of something else I lay down onto the bed and fall asleep. Somehow I was unnaturally tired. Probably because of all the action today.

After a few days I finally found some kinda routine. Every time when Yuuri and Victor went out to train at the ice castle I stayed back and trained on my own. Afterwards I would shower and go back into my room, calm down and do some light stretches. Most of the remaining time I thought about my routine. I would probably will change some jumps and there was a possibility that I won't be able to do some of my old moves.

Right now I was slowly and exhaustively making my way to the bathroom. After my work outs I still needed my crutches and sometimes I could barely put any pressure onto my left leg. Sadly I realized it will take some more time to get used to all this activity and motion.

I lean my crutches against the wall and get out of my clothes. Carefully I step into the shower, turn the water on and let the warm water rain down on me. Its just awesome. Refreshing and calming. During every shower I'm reminded that I still haven't told them about my secret. It has already been over one week and I didn't had the courage to tell them. Well, there hasn't been any good moments but that is still no excuse. I just got no idea how and when to tell them. It wasn't some normal news and I never told anyone before. The only ones that now are my grandpa and my doc. It became my big secret, sometimes it has been so natural to lie that it was hard to tell for myself. There has been times when I believed myself that the lie I was telling everyone was the reality. But this lie collapsed together with me when I had that accident. I decided and promised my grandpa to stop hiding and show my true self. But somehow it was harder then I imagined it to be.

How will they react? Will they treat me differently after they know? Will I change when I tell them?

I turn of the water, get out of the shower and dry myself of. I pull on some underwear and grab my crutches. I go back to my room and let myself flop down onto my bed. I close my eyes for a few moments and just try to think of nothing. Not ice skating, not Yuuri, not Victor, not even my grandpa and in no case my secret condition. My breath goes slow and even and I feel like I could fall asleep every second. Only held awake by the fact, that I was laying here half naked. If I fall asleep now there was a possibility of Yuuri or Victor come in. There was no way I would let that happen. If they are going to find out, then because I will tell them myself!

One week later I made a decision. I was sick of waiting even one more day. My individual work out went well, I could walk without my crutches and the most movements didn't hurt at all. It wouldn't hurt to get used to being on the ice again. At least I could do some light skating and maybe some easy step sequences.
