Russia! Go figure, we are heading to Viktor's and Yuri's home. But definitely a cold place that bugged my knee so bad I had to stay in the hotel until the tournament started.
"You sure that you want to come along? I mean it's gonna be 56 degrees out." I looked over at Viktor and Yuuri, but shook my head yes. It should've been a no, because I got blasted with cold air when I left the heated hotel. I tried going back inside, but Yuri stopped me from blocking the entrance. "If you are going too leave, then you are not a professional ice skater." I looked at Yuri who was mostly looking into nowhere, and replied. "Says the one, who almost tried to cheat for the singles ice skating competition, wears animal print, and seems to get angry at littlest things." He scoffed at me and remembered his place as I did the same. But I bit my lip on the last comment I wanted to say. It was uh kinda rude and extravagant that I might get hurt from my brother so I kept it quiet.
Once we got to the ice rink, the whole place was packed. Again. Nothing new but guys who shouldn't by wearing too much makeup and feel too much compassion for one person. But honestly I couldn't care less because I'm not controlling them. I already have three control freaks beside me anyways. Besides, the point is, I was cold, we won second place, we went back to the hotel rooms, and of course talked about crap.
"Wait so Yuuri was never innocent?"
I looked over at Yuri and started to explain the whole thing. "Well ever since Viktor was ice skating, Yuuri was OBSESSED with him, he had posters in almost every corner of his room back home. Then he did the special move Viktor made and was going viral on the internet. It was funny to see him react through the whole thing. And when he was gone, his dream came true and here he is skating along side Viktor just like he wanted." I felt proud to explain that in front of Yuuri and make him speechless and blush a little bit in front of Viktor and Yuri. I felt proud for at least 2 minutes. "Then you came into play and started to think you can surpass your brother." I scolded at him and thanked him for ruining my happy moment.
We went to sleep, woke up, ate at a cafe near the ice rink. But I was dead tired because I was so used too waking up in the afternoon and not early morning. I just stared at everybody who ate and almost fell asleep in my food. "August, eat the food, it's really good." "No thanks. I'm too tired to eat at the present moment." I got up and left a tip while the three paid the bill. I went back to the hotel room and went back to sleep because I wanted to. Cause why the freak not. Sleep was my number one pal! I don't think sleep and I ever leave each other because I rather sleep than deal with other stuff that's in my life except my job, skating, and regular life I have been living for a while now.
I heard a couple of knocks and gotten cleaned up as if I was not asleep. Yuuri was at the door instead of all three. So I got ready for nothing. "Did you mean all of that back there? How your too tired." I blinked at him, thinking are you stupid or am I paranoid to what I said wasn't true. "Of course I did. YOU GUYS WOKE ME UP AT 5:30 in the morning to eat at the cafe! I would be tired because I don't skate because of this stupid injury."
I have to explain everything and felt like I shouldn't really be because Yuuri was older than me and more popular and better than me at ice skating. And that's one of the reasons why I want to surpass my brother because I'm tired of living in the shadows.
