mixingbowl | Come on and take my breath away

[Too much? Yuuri honestly has no idea, even if he's looking a little overwhelmed. He ducks his head, smiling.]

I don't know. I've never really had anyone do stuff for me like this before. A bath sounds nice, though... [Yuuri peeks up at Victor this time, a hint of nerves showing. It's been a while since that time he'd asked for help unlocking his Eros, but Victor did just kiss him on live TV, essentially. Surely that means he's still interested?] Are you... going to join me?

[a bit of a devious look at that, Victor taking a bite of food himself, swallowing before answering]

The bath does fit two. So, yes, if you'd like.

[Yuuri nods eagerly--maybe a little too eagerly, he realizes a second later, though he can't really bring himself to care at the moment. Even if Victor's been free with his touches, they haven't been as close as Yuuri's wanted.]

Yes. If you'd like it, too.

Of course I would, so eat up. [Victor will continue to eat himself, giving a few pleased coos of "vkusno, vkusno!" as they try different things together. When Yuuri is slowing down, Victor will finish up quicker and excuse himself to the bathroom. He'll start running the bath, with a little flare because he's.... just so damn extra.

When Yuuri has had his fill and wanders toward the bathroom, it smells divine. Victor is lighting lavender and cinnamon candles, lining the edge of the bath with them quite whimsically. The large tub for two is steaming and cutely bubbly.]

Don't fall asleep in here, okay?

[Yuuri stops in the doorway, wide-eyed as he takes all this in.] Um, wow. You really weren't kidding about spoiling me.

And no promises about falling asleep. [Inhaling the mix of lavender and cinnamon as he shuffles closer, Yuuri feels himself relaxing already. He waits until Victor's lit the last candle before leaning in to press a soft kiss to Victor's lips, finally giving into the urge. Then he presses his face into Victor's neck with a soft sigh.] Thank you. For all of this.

[the kiss is returned, shortly, before Yuuri escapes to snuggle into his nape. Arms will reach around Yuuri to embrace him, loose without being dispassionate.]

You're welcome and you earned it. [his hands will slide down to the hem of Yuuri's shirt, fingers hooking there to begin pulling clothes off the man. It's not a fevered kind of undressing, it's really very gentle and caring. Yuuri gets a kiss to the forehead]

I enjoy doting on you, Yuuri.

[It's ridiculous how a simple kiss can send his heart pounding, but then again--it's Victor. And Yuuri's never really felt so strongly for anyone else before.]

It's... nice. [Yuuri stands there with an open, trusting look on his face as he lets Victor undress him. Come to think of it, he's never really doted on anyone like this, either, having kept himself so closed off for most of his life. Would Victor let Yuuri do this for him in the future? he wonders.]

Go on, I'll join you in a moment. [he'll nudge the now naked Yuuri along, helping him settle gently into the bath. The water rises nicely around him, it would fill to the brim, maybe spill some bubbles, once Victor joined. He'll waste little time to slide his own clothes off, giving Yuuri as good a look as ever at his naked form. He crawls up, nearly getting in before giving an "ah!" and retreating, switching the lights off. The candles flicker nicely for more intimate lighting.

Then Victor will get onto the edge, opposite end from Yuuri, looking across to him. He's surrounded by the candles, dipping his feet down. Nice an hot, good...]

Comfortable? [he couldn't very well recreate the onsen, so he decided something more romantic and personal was best]

[The hot bath seems to pull the aches right out of his body, and Yuuri sinks in with a happy sigh until the water's up to his chin. After the day he's had, this feels amazing.]

Very. [Yuuri smiles, eyes lingering on Victor as he appreciates how he looks in the soft light of the candles. Though Victor's never been shy about his body while using the onsen, it feels different seeing him like this when it's just the two of them.]

Good, good, here I come! [Victor will slide into the water, sending a wave of bubbles toward Yuuri with a chuckle. His legs settle around Yuuri's in a wide open stance, Victor relaxing quickly with a playful grin.]

Ooh, that is nice.

[Yuuri draws his knees up slightly to give Victor more room, then playfully flicks some water in Victor's direction.]

I'm kind of impressed. Ordering food is one thing--how did you find all of this in that short amount of time?

[Victor waves a hand back and forth to try and deflect the incoming water splashes, chuckling along with Yuuri's cute mood.]

China has everything! All I needed was the idea and to make some phone calls. [and leave it up to Victor to think of all that food, a romantic bath, and a massage before sleep]

[One last flick of water and Yuuri settles back against the tub with a laugh.] It's still a lot... [Even if Victor is sort of playing it off, Yuuri figures it still must have taken a lot of effort to get this all ready in time. He plays around with one of the candles, turning it in place as he glances over at Victor again.]

Victor... [Yuuri worries at his bottom lip for a second.] Can I join you on your side?

Not yet! [DENIED.

Victor is only being playfully cruel, at least. He reaches forward and finds Yuuri's feet, sliding them over to his side. He rests one in his lap and puts both hands on the other, slowly and carefully rubbing his thumbs over the tender skin.]

Your feet must be killing you. Allow me.

[Denied??? Before Yuuri can even begin to pout in response, Victor's pulling his foot into his lap and--Oh. The sigh escapes him before he even realizes it, water sloshing against the side of the tub as he leans back again.]

That feels nice. [He murmurs. His toes curl slightly when Victor's thumb finds a sore spot.]

Everybody enjoys a foot massage, but athletes need them especially. [he'd definitely looked up how to give a pleasant foot massage, a while back. The pressure is careful and he keeps Yuuri's foot in the warm water to help sooth the aches he's trying to rub away.]

[Brown eyes warm as he watches Victor, Yuuri shifts sheepishly, making the water ripple.]

I guess I've been neglecting that part. [Aside from applying ointment and bandages whenever the chafing got too bad, that is. He isn't that bad at looking after himself.] I should do it for you sometime, too. You're on the ice almost as much as I am when we're practicing.

Don't fret over me, I'm taking care of you, right now. [the joints on his thumbs press in circles around sensitive areas and the man's toes, paying all the attention he had to Yuuri.]

... this is rather funny, don't you think?

Doesn't mean I can't plan for later. [His eyes flutter shut as relaxes under Victor's careful touch, only occasionally wincing as his aches are seen to.]

Hmm? [He asks drowsily, without opening his eyes.] What's funny?

Not too long ago, you were scrambling away from my touch. [he smiles to point it out, really just... proud of their increase in intimacy. He couldn't happier about it, it's almost a smug feeling]

Funny to think how we got here! [from "omg, Victor Nikiforov, I can't believe it" to "lace my skates, babe" in a few short months]

[He ducks his head and sinks deeper into the bath water, remembering all too well how he'd reacted that first night.] You were really forward! I... I didn't expect it.

[Yuuri keeps his gaze down as he flicks at a little gathering of bubbles near him.] I like how we are now. [How can he complain about moments like these? All of them, and even that fight down in the garage, have made Victor more tangible to him, like Yuuri might have a chance to hold onto him.]

[Victor is switching over to the other foot, focusing his attention in much the same way, there. Firm, but still soothing touches]

I wouldn't have it another way, Yuuri.

Really? [A smile curls at his lips, a hint of his playful side.] Even the part where you told me you'd be my coach while standing in the onsen completely naked?

[He pauses, suddenly.] Were you hoping I'd find you in there? I always wondered.

I knew you'd find me there! I was waiting with so much anticipation for you to finally pop in. Though it's difficult to keep track of time in the comfort of the baths. [not unlike right now, where everything was so relaxing and intimate, it may as well be timeless]

[An incredulous sort of half-giggle escapes him before he can help it. If he's a little looser with his words and actions, he's blaming it on the mix of too-little sleep and the attention Victor's been lavishing on him.]

Shameless. [He tells Victor, not quite managing to achieve the scolding tone he was probably going for.] You almost gave me a heart attack, you know.
