Swan Lake - When Ice Touches the Chords (On Hiatus)

9: |Breath|

A whole week had passed. Where Blue and Cyan were enjoying their own holidays, Zhan and Yibo were struggling to convince Kate to let them go to the nearest rink. After those few days of nagging and all that, finally Kate let Zhan and Yibo to leave for the ice skating in the nearest one. Both got a long lecture and numerous conditions before finally leaving for it. At first they didn't want this matter to be known in public but since they needed to have genuine informations so Kate had to tell Marina about this. When Marina heard the whole story, she was just one step away from fainting. After a lot of excited screaming and crying in joy , she gave all the details that she could gather in the few days.Under Marina's supervision, Yibo and Zhan along with Kate and Marina not to mention the two bodyguards left for rink to see and show Yibo's jewels.

They left for the rink in the evening after the the rink officially closed to avoid any kind of publicity. With all possible kind of safety and everything, they went into the there. Marina's childhood friend was the caretaker of this rink.
Zhan didn't expect that a rink could be this beautiful in it's own grandeur. When lights were turned on, Zhan couldn't help but gasped.

His mouth agape but when his reverie broke when he heard a clank clank sound on the floor. It was Yibo. He was coming towards him to enter the rink. Goodness!

The music was turned on. The whole place was empty as only Zhan, Yibo, Kate and Marina with two bodyguards and the caretaker Zhao Mi, the old friend of Marina. She was generous and not a crazy fan like others. Even if she was really happy to see both Yibo and Zhan in her place, she's mature enough not to make any fuss of it.

The music began.

And Yibo flew. Zhan couldn't take his eyes off of him. Commenting him as Beautiful would be an understatement. The tall chiseled figure was skating, flying on the ice.

"Anyone can say, he improved a lot right?"

"Yeah, after that last performance in the semifinals. He has terribly improved. I wonder what has gotten into him."

Hearing the praise of Yibo, for an unknown reason Zhan felt proud and smirked. No doubt, he had the best inspiration.

As soon as the music ended, the whole hall bursted into the applause of those few persons. Yibo smiled and bowed to everyone and then shifted his gaze to his Zhan ge.

Words are unnecessary for them. Their eyes can tell. Their minds are in a same harmony, belong to the same garland.

This became even clearer at the very next action. Thanking everyone who were present there, Yibo then went to Zhan and looked straight in his eyes, only to say this:

"Zhan ge, I have a request."

"What is it? Yibo." Zhan said warmly. Even the ice was cold, their hearts were boiling.

"I want to skate to your music."

Zhan's eyes widened. He clearly didn't expect that coming.

"Sure, I will make a piece for you when I go ho..."

"I want to skate to it now. "

"But how? I didn't bring an.."

" But I did." Kate said from the distant. She was holding a violin case in her hand. Zhan once looked at Kate and then at Yibo, to which Yibo smiled.

"How, why?" Zhan was dumbfounded and then Yibo cleared the cloud.

"It was pre planned Zhan ge. I told Kate to bring your violin case. As you know, that you haven't played Violin to me yet. Shouldn't forget your promise ge. And I thought this is the best opportunity to make you remember your promises." Yibo grinned.
