Original Request: Alfred Jones has always been the bad boy of the US Figure Skating circuit. He's got loads of raw talent but lacks the discipline to follow through with it and honestly he doesn't mind coasting along with his fourth and fifth place finishes because his looks and attitude always get him laid no matter what the competition. He goes through coaches like water until no one else will take him on. He mistakenly thinks this means he can stop skating but his father has already invested a ton of money into him and his going to get something out of it. His father digs up some old guard Russian skater Ivan Braginsky who had won a ton of medals and had just gotten into coaching when one of his skaters suffered a horrible accident on the ice and he disappeared soon after. Alfred's father tracks him down and offers him enough money to convince even the extremely reluctant Ivan to take Alfred on as a client.
It's not exactly a match made in heaven they have totally different work ethics, life ethics, fight constantly and everyone thinks they're going to kill each other but slowly but surely a real transformation starts to happen and the results soon follow. Obviously romance and smut also following would be much, much LOVE.
Notes: Alternate universe.
Summary: Alfred, an undisciplined young ice-skater, has scared off his latest coach, and his father Arthur is at his wit’s end.
