[ Viktor makes a pleased sound in his throat, enjoying the sensation immensely. He also puffs out a quiet breath against Yuuri's skin, and a faint smile is hinted at in his voice. ]

Did I wear you out that you slept so soundly?

[nextlevel]

[ Yuuri keeps going then. ]

Mm-hmm. Safe and tired both.

[fourlevels]

[ The arm around Yuuri's torso tightens briefly, fingers grazing along his side. ]

That's the best way to be tired. There's so much I'd like to do with you ...

[nextlevel]

We will. We'll get there. And if I have to be patient with you this time, that's only fair.

[fourlevels]

[ Another puff of not-quite laughter. He appreciates the change of subject to get his mind off of the dream. ]

I don't think I could wait that long again.

[nextlevel]

[ Yuuri's can be emotionally competent when he wants to be, okay. ]

Was it that bad? I must have seemed completely different from the banquet ...

[fourlevels]

Completely different. I was so surprised when I came to Hasetsu and you kept wanting to avoid me.

[nextlevel]

I didn't know what I'd done. For me you just showed up out of nowhere because of a viral video.

[fourlevels]

And I thought you just wanted to forget it happened at all so I didn't want to bring it up or ask. You were already so awkward with me ...

[nextlevel]

What were you expecting?

[fourlevels]

[ Viktor tilts his head up to look at Yuuri, resting his chin on Yuuri's chest. ]

Not quite what I saw at the banquet since you were obviously drunk. But maybe ... more boisterous? More confident certainly, with the way you challenged Chris and Yurio like that.

[nextlevel]

And then you came to Japan and I was a pile of mush.

[fourlevels]

Not mush exactly. But certainly in need of someone to listen and just be there.

[nextlevel]

I got more confident later on, at least.

[fourlevels]

Mm, you just needed to get out of your own head to find the confidence that was already there.

[nextlevel]

So I can do the same thing for you now?

[fourlevels]

[ He blinks up at Yuuri, for a moment confused a what he means. ]

... Ah?

[nextlevel]

About your skating again. About us.

[fourlevels]

[ The open, confused expression stays for a moment before melting into something much softer. ]

I'd like it if you did.

[nextlevel]

Good. Then I'll be your coach, Viktor.

[fourlevels]

[ His expression softens even more as he slides up in the bed, bringing his face closer to Yuuri's for a kiss. ]

[nextlevel]

[ Yuuri returns it gladly. Careful to keep his mouth closed. ]

[fourlevels]

[ Good call. Viktor might have been tempted to try, but he's somewhat relieved when Yuuri doesn't give him the choice. He leans their foreheads together. ]

Don't go easy on me even if I am your fiancé.

[nextlevel]

You think being my fiancé means I'll go easy on you?

[fourlevels]

[ He chuckles while kissing him again, then settling next to him. ]

I certainly hope not.
