arroogant:
JJ glances up to Yuuri, offering a gentle smile as he nods to the male. It was nice to have comfort. Even when you didn’t ask for it. “Thanks, Yuuri.. but I don’t know.. I’ve always had a tendency to want to impress. JJ Style’s still got a long way to go! So I’ve got to keep it up and impress.” JJ offers a gentle shrug. Pressing his lips together and sighing once more. “I’ve had to go through many coaches and people in order to get where I am.. it’s been hard.”
“I had a very good coach, back in Detroit.” Yuuri murmured as he looked up at the ceiling. “You can tell, by how far Phichit has grown since last year. Even I made it the the finals, even if I hadn’t been that good.” He closed his eyes, the memory still a hard one. “I fell many times, I let my mind get the better of me; I couldn’t shake it off. No matter how good my coach was, I was wrapped up in my mind and my anxieties, I just couldn’t move past my failures, and I ended up placing last.
He shuddered a little.
“I was ready to quit, to give up; and then Viktor came along.” Yuuri’s smile returned, a soft loving smile. “He pulled me out of my mind, and allowed me to shine. Not as someone else, but as my true me.” He looked over at JJ. “I think, no matter how good a coach is, if they can’t help you be your true self, then they aren’t the coach for you.” He smiled a little brighter. “Your parents love you very much, I can see that. I think they suit you very well.” He paused, his cheeks dusting a soft pink. “And I happen to like your JJ style the best.”
