Angel [Victor Nikiforov]

{Chapter 40}

The dark haired girl blankly stares at me before turning away.

'Huh, that's different.'

After taking my guards off, I step onto the ice, and head over to Victor.

"Are you ready?" He asks smoothly, placing his hand on mine.

My face lights up and I smile, "Yeah."

The Russian leans over and kisses me on the cheek.

There's a few murmurs through the crowd as he leans back.

A faint blush resides on my cheeks as I smile wider before going off.

I skate around, smiling at the cheering mass of people.

'Wow...' I think as I see many flags appear throughout the crowd.

Once I get to my place I let out a shaky breath and outstretch my arms.

When the music starts, I start to skate back, away from Victor's figure and slowly bringing my arms back to my sides.

I head to the right before quickly change to the left, making sure to keep in the beat of the music.

Landing the jump, I faintly hear the eruption of claps.

Smiling, I skate backwards before getting into a spin.

'Yokatta!' I think as I grin, getting to the step sequence.

(Alright!)

One sip, bad for me, one hit, bad for me, one kiss, bad for me.

I stop, tilt my head back before spinning and then kicking my foot up; kicking up ice in the process.

I then "push" myself to the right and raise my arms; linking them after as I spin forward.

I lastly wrap my arms around myself and walk back towards the middle.

The music quiets down and I stop, looking around.

Letting my arms fall, I wait for the next lyrics.

But i'm weak.

I rush forward and skate a little before doing a quadruple flip.

A loud cheer starts as I land without mistake.

I smile again and start skating backwards, bring my arms up in the process.

The words come back, signaling my to do a small hop.

Afterwards I get into a combination spin.

Standing back up I then skate back into a "squiggly" line; moving my arms constantly to the tempo.

As I reach the curving side of the barrier I do a quadruple toe-loop followed by a triple toe-loop.

I land both and start to spin with my arms up before hopping and getting into a flying sit spin.

I slowly raise my arms as I get back up.

I raise one arm up in a slow manner before turning, letting it fall with me.

Skating back, I turn to my right, lightly touching the ice with my hand.

'Yes... now I have to land the triple axel...'

My habits, they hold me like a drug. I promise I won't budge.

I freeze before falling back and then skate backwards; spinning around.

The chorus comes back and I raise my hand, letting it fall and spin a bit slowly.

One hit...
