I let out a sigh as school was finally over. I couldn't wait to get home to my heated house and relax inside. Away from the cold weather. Though as I was placing my shoes back on I saw Karamatsu rush out of the school. I hum and raise an eyebrow before quickly following him. Ever since winter started Karamatsu would leave school immediately once the bell rang and whenever I tried to hang out over the weekend he would say he was busy. He has also been carry two bags with him nowadays.
I wanted to find out what he was up to. I follow him to the park up to a lake that was frozen over. I hum in curiosity and hid myself as he places his bags down before rummaging through one. I hum as he pulls out a pair of ice skates before he places them on. I flinch and almost rush out as he steps onto the ice. I stop myself and watch in awe as he starts to glide across the ice.
I could tell he had been practicing as he didn't trip or wobble at all. I watch as he twirls around on the ice. My breath hitches as he jumps but I sigh in relief as he lands safely after spinning in the air. I walk out from my hiding spot and walk over to watch more closely. Though when he saw me he let out a squeak and trips. I flinch as he fell on his butt and he turns to me with a blush.
"I..I can explain." He stammers as he pushes himself back up. I hum and place my hands on my hips. "What is there to explain? You are an amazing ice skater." I say and he hums "how long have you been practicing?" I ask and he blushes "Since I was 15...every winter I come out here to practice." He says and I nod "Soo why are you practicing?" I ask and he chuckles nervously.
"There's this team I really want to join." He says and I smile "Well you want some good news?" I ask and he hums "What?" He asks as he steps off the ice and I walk closer. "I'll be your first supporter." I say and he blushes while looking surprised. "I mean I'm assuming your family doesn't-" "Yeah they don't know about this." He cuts me off and I nod with a smile before I hug him.
"Then I'll be the support you need."

"Come on Kara! You can do it hon!" I cheer as Karamatsu went on with his performance. I had high hopes for him. As his coach and his girlfriend I was praying that he would get his first medal tonight. Though I have no doubt he will. His form was perfect and his performance was so elegant. Plus the crowd was cheering him on as well.
I watch in awe but my breath hitches as he goes to end his performance with a triple axel jump. I held my breath but scream in joy when he landed it. "Yes! He did it! He did it!" I shout as I jump with joy. "Y/n!" I turn my head to Karamatsu who gave a quick bow before making his way over. I smile and rush over to the entry gate.
When he was close enough I lunge at him, capturing him into a hug and kiss him softly. I'm just lucky that he didn't lose balance. He pulls away and hugs me tightly before stepping off the rink. "You actually landed it. I was so worried." I say and he smiles before we head to the back room to rest before they announce the top three.
I am now overjoyed. Karamatsu managed to win over the judges with his performance and won first place. The joy I felt for him I can't even put into words. To celebrate I decided to treat him to dinner at one of my favorite places. Though when we exit the arena we saw his brothers.
Karamatsu and I try to get away without them seeing us but..
"Karamatsu-niisan!"
We both flinch at Jyushimatsu's voice before turning around. I could sense Karamatsu's nervousness as his brothers just stared for a bit. But what happened next surprised the both of us. "You did a good job out there." Osomatsu says and the others nod in agreement. "Yeah your moves were incredible and you could skate on the ice so easily." Todomatsu says and Karamatsu blushes before smiling.
"Heh. Well I'm glad you enjoyed the show my brothers and, if my y/n is okay with it, I would love to discuss this over dinner. If you'd like to join us." He says with a smirk as he wraps an arm around my shoulders. I smile and nod "I'd love to have them join so how about it?" I ask and they look at each other "oh and I'm paying so no worries." I say and they hum before nodding.
So in the end Karamatsu had no reason to worry about his brothers not supporting him.
Turns out that they support him entirely and even wanted to see more of his performances in the future.
