    Summary

    Summary

    “Are you okay, though? I could call for help. You hit the tree really hard, and…”

    “No! No, no, no. I don’t do hospitals. I’m fine… it’s just, my car. My car is not fine.” And it wasn’t fine. It definitely wasn’t drivable.

    “No, yeah... How about I call you a tow truck?” Just then the wind picked up and almost blew them over sideways.

    Patrick’s face stung from the bitter cold wind. He swore he could feel ice pellets hitting him on the cheeks, and the other man seemed to be just as pained. He had a better idea. “Actually, uh, I live five minutes from here. Why don’t you come back with me and we can call a tow from there. I’m Patrick, by the way. Patrick Brewer.” He extended his icy cold hand, and the other man reciprocated with his gloved one.

    “David Rose.”

    Summary

    When Yuuri and Viktor wake up decades in the past, they don't know what to do. Does the other remember them, or are they doomed to try and recreate the relationship they were always meant to have?

    Luckily that particular question is quickly answered and resolved, but even then, there are obstacles in their way. The most important? Yuuri is only 14 now, hardly a good age for them to announce a relationship between the two of them, even if they keep it age-appropriate. So for the time being, they'll have to try and settle for long-distance.

    But it's hardly realistic to expect them to be able to react normally after their lives were completely messed up by this whole 'time travel' thing, and really, who can blame them for not being able to convincingly play the age (and maturity level) the rest of the world still expects of them?

     

    NOTE: As those of you who read the original version of this story as I was posting it probably noticed, I really rushed through it. After coming up with a whole bunch of things that I wanted to add to it that would've stood out if I added them so late, I decided to try my hand at re-writing the whole thing. I'm going to try not to rush it so much this time. Enjoy!
