Chapter Text
“Viktor! I need you to take a trip to Katsuki and give this to Phichit.” Says Viktor’s father as he’s holding out a scroll. Viktor took the scroll, held it up and smiles,
“Of course, I need to get away from all the duties you gave me,” his father shook his head slowly and wave to shoo Viktor away.
“Your son takes his leave.” Viktor bows and quickly runs out the door to the portal between all the places of the heaven. He traveled to Katsuki Palace, a heaven where all the wine and medication being produced for the immortals. Viktor is the crown prince of the Nikiforov, where all the official duties and affairs take places.
Viktor arrived at Katsuki’s palace where he met with Phichit who is an expert of wine making medicine, who is also second in line for the throne. Phichit comes running to the door and greets Viktor, “I didn’t know that crown prince is coming. If I’ve known, I would’ve prepare something for you,”
“No need. I just came here to give you this and leave once the job is done,”
“This is?”
“Not sure. Imperial father told me to give it to you. I didn’t peak what’s inside.”
“I have trouble you.” Phitchi bows.
Viktor turns around and walks out of the palace. On the way out, he thought it wouldn’t hurt to take a trip to the explore the mortal world as a reward for himself for all the duties his imperial father gave to him.
He passed the barrier between heaven and earth and landed on a mountain full of cherry blossoms. He walked a round for a bit when he spotted a boy sitting under one of the cherry tree. When the boy senses that there is someone behind him, he turn around to see Viktor. The boy stands up and smiles innocently, causing Viktor to walk up to him.
Viktor took a flower petal that was stuck on his hair out. “Let me ask what your name is.” He said.
“I don’t have one,”
Viktor thinks for a second an responses, “Eros. These two syllables suits you perfectly.”
“Eros. Okay! Then my name will be Eros,” Eros then looks up to Viktor and ask: “What is your name?”
“Eros, come here.” He extended his hands out, “Viktor.” Viktor took Eros’ hand and spell out “VIKTOR” on Eros’ palm.
“Viktor,” Eros repeated, smiling softly. “Ah! The sun is setting I need to get back before it gets dark,” Eros turn his back, ready to head back to his small cottage when he felt Viktor grabbed his hand preventing him from leaving him alone. “You don’t have anywhere to go to?”
“...No.” Viktor lies. If he wanted to go back home, all he had to do is jump then he would end up in his room at the Nikiforov Heaven’s palace. But he lied so that he can stay with Eros longer.
“Then you can stay at my place!” Eros take his hand and headed to the small cottage near a hot spring.
Once they got into what Eros call his home, Eros’ stomach grows. Embarrassed he put his hands on his stomach and looked away blushing. Viktor smirks before walking to the kitchen that is probably 4-6 feet away from where they are. Viktor open the cabinet of nothing, Viktor turn to Eros asking, “How many day have you not eaten?”
Eros purse his lips, refusing to say that he doesn’t know how to cook. Viktor smirk once more and ask, “Start the fire for me? I’ll go look for something outside.” Eros look at Viktor with puppies eyes before nodding. Viktor step outside and a snap of a finger, pork, onion, soy sauce, etc shows up. Viktor head back into the kitchen to see Eros’ standing next to his fire looking very proud of it. Viktor puts the ingredients on the table and starts making a dish call “Katsudon” while Eros is behind him peeking through his shoulder.
Once viktor finished cooking, Eros also finished setting up the table. Viktor put a piece of the katsudon on Eros’ plate, “You haven’t eaten for sometimes now, you should eat more.”
“Mm!” Eros nodded then proceed to stuff his face with his food. Viktor sat across of him watches him with a smile on his face. “How can someone be this cute?” he thought.
Once they finished eating, Eros jump into the hot spring while Viktor take care of the dishes. After Viktor is done doing the dishes, he completely forgot that Eros is in the hot spring, he took off this clothes and tied his hair up then step into the hot spring.
Once he open the door, Eros was drying his long hair. He had his all hair to the side revealing a plum blossom birthmark he had on the back of his neck. Eros felt someone was behind him, so he turned around to find Viktor standing behind him. Eros quickly covers himself and turns his face away blushing, “At least knock on the door!”
Viktor stood there in daze for a few seconds before saying, “I haven’t experience sharing a bathroom with someone.”
“I’m done anyways.” Eros says before rushing out. Viktor touches earlobes. When someone is hot, subconsciously they would touch something colder.
“Why is he so cute?!” Viktor said out loud.
Once Viktor is done bathing, he went to the bedroom to find the bed is nicely made and Eros is asleep on the chair near it. The cottage that Eros lives only has one bedroom and since Eros doesn’t want guest to sleep on the floor, he offered his bed to Viktor.
Viktor approach the sleeping Eros then carries him to the bed. After Viktor place Eros on the bed he climb into the bed too. He proceeded to cover both of them with a blanket.
Eros turn to face Viktor and put his arms around Viktor’s neck. Viktor turned his head to look at Eros’ sleeping face. He slid his hand up to hold the arm around his neck. “You’re an unmarried person yet you’re sharing a bed with the crown prince… If I don’t marry you, I’m afraid no one else will dare to come near you.” Viktor said softly.
