Chapter Text
"I'm so tired!" Closing the door, the famed skater Yuri Katsuki collapsed onto his bed, feeling the exhaustion setting in. He had practiced hard today, going over his program multiple times, making minute changes until his body moved in harmony with the music in the background.
Victor, who had seen how tired Yuri had become, had told him to go back to his home and he would bring them something to eat. At one point, the silver haired man even threatened to carry him back if he didn't go to rest. At the moment, Yuri was craving his favorite meal, a pork cutlet bowl. However, his family was out of town for a few days, and so he instead agreed to eat whatever Victor brought him.
Closing his eyes, the tired skater only got a moment of peace before it was interrupted again.
"Yuri! I'm home!" Hearing the door close, Yuri opened his eyes again, propping his head up on his hand to lazily look at Victor, who was now standing in the door.
"Hey, sleeping beauty." Even though he rolled his eyes, Yuri couldn't suppress a small smile.
"I didn't even sleep." Victor sighed, shaking his head slightly.
"You really need to sleep more."
Getting up, Yuri stretched, a small yawn escaping him. Walking over to Victor, he leaned against the wall, his eyes blinking slowly as he tried to escape the sleepy feeling taking over him.
"So, would you like some food?" Yuri looked up at Victor and nodded, smiling.
"That would be amazing."
After eating some noodles, Yuri felt a bit more refreshed. The fact that he could still use some sleep was still true, but he supposed that he could stay up for a little while.
Crossing over to the radio, Victor fiddled with the knobs, changing the music until a soft melody played.
"Yuri." Victor called, glancing over his shoulder at the younger man, who glanced at him, brown eyes sparkling curiously.
"Yes?" Yuri walked over to Victor, crossing his arms. The skater beside him stood up, and smiled brightly. Turning to face Yuri, he held out his hand.
"Dance with me." The look of shock on the other's face was one that he had seen before, but nevertheless never ceased to amuse him.
"Dance with you!?" Yuri asked, still a bit shocked. "What about practice?"
"You can practice a bit later." Victor said, taking Yuri's hand into his own. "Plenty of time."
Pulling Yuri a bit closer, Victor smiled. Humming along with the melody, he moved with Yuri in time to the music. It took a bit for the younger skater to get used to the movements, but in a few minutes, he had a smile on his face that he couldn't hide, no matter how hard he tried. Victor spun Yuri around and laughed at the amusement that was clear on his student's face.
After a while, they had switched the music and danced for a long time. However, soon Yuri felt his movements grow sluggish once more, and he yawned loudly, his eyes blinking sleepily.
"Okay." Victor chuckled, "Let's get you to bed. Can't have you falling asleep in the middle of a program."
Taking Yuri by the hand, he led him to their shared room, holding back his laughter at the fact that his tired protege had fallen asleep before he had even hit the pillow.
"Goodnight, Yuri." Victor whispered, laying on his own bed, which was connected with Yuri's. Closing his eyes, he listened to Yuri's breathing and fell asleep to dreams filled with colorful outfits, beautiful music, and himself skating alongside Yuri.
Forever together.
