Author's Notes: This is entirely
crazy_otaku911 's fault. Except for where the muses were yelling to be written. Sorry for the spam, gaiz 8(
Yamamoto starts skating for Tackey's team when she's fifteen. It's a big group and they have four coaches to handle them. She works harder than anyone because she wants to impress then-fresh-coach Yara.
When she's seventeen, she starts to stay later to keep practicing. That's the first time she meets the boy with the zamboni.
Ryu is younger than she is but he's good to talk to, lets her skate when he's done, on the new smooth ice. He also has a crush on her but she pretends not to notice that part. She has her eyes on the coach.
Title: Praise

Characters/Pairings: YamaRyo, Yara, Goseki, Ryu.
Author's Notes: YamaRyo smiles like sunshine? Idk.
"Yamamoto, good job today," Yara says, smiling to her. "You've almost got the jumps down now. You should be ready for the competition in plenty of time."
"Thank you, coach!" Yamamoto smiles back, bright as sunshine, because finally she's got the attention she wants. The smile is short-lived, however, as she sees Yara's girlfriend at the top of the bleachers. "Ah, Goseki-san is here."
Yara looks over his shoulder, smiling more genuinely now, and nods. "Keep working on it, okay?"
Yamamoto nods and doesn't miss the smirk Goseki sends her way. Ryu doesn't either but he pretends that he does.
Title: Crushes That Grow
Unit for Points: A.B.C.-Z
Word Count: 100
Characters/Pairings: YamaRyo, Ryu, Yara.
Author's Notes: This is more tragic than it should be. :|
Over the next two years, Ryu has several growth spurts and winds up towering over Yamamoto. She doesn't really notice because it's rare that she sees him standing and he doubts it would matter because she likes Yara, who's short as hell. And she just falls more for Yara.
Yara's seemed to notice this as well and he seems to have more interest in her now. He's still dating Goseki but he sees Yamamoto in a new light. She's nineteen now, a young woman and legal as well. Everyone can see he's interested.
Ryu can see it. But Yamamoto doesn't.
Title: Private Practice Plan
Unit for Points: A.B.C.-Z
Word Count: 100
Characters/Pairings: YamaRyo, Ryu, Yara.
Author's Notes: Yara is a bad boy.
"I was thinking that you should start having private practices."
Yamamoto blinks, sliding back and forth on her skates as she holds the railing and listens to Yara. "Private? What do you mean?"
"Just you and me," Yara says. To him, the implication is clear and the blush on her cheeks makes him think it's just as clear to her. "It would help you focus more."
She doesn't mention it's his fault she can't concentrate.
After, Ryu teases her. "Yama-chan has a crush on the coach~ I bet he'll try to do naughty things. But that's okay, I'll save you."
Title: Date-o I
Unit for Points: A.B.C.-Z
Word Count: 100
Characters/Pairings: Yara, Goseki.
Author's Notes: And now, some of these two.
"Yaracchi, where is your mind?" Goseki asks, looking put-out. They haven't been on a proper date in a while and even now, he looks like his mind is somewhere else. She's fairly sure she knows where, too. "Yaracchi!"
Yara snaps back to attention, blinking. "Sorry, I was just thinking about whether or not Ryo-chan got home safely."
That's what Goseki thought and she forces a smile on. "I'm sure she's fine. That Takahashi kid keeps an eye on her, ne? She'll be just fine."
"Of course." Yara nods. Ryu always takes care of Yamamoto. Soon Yara will take that spot.
Title: Date-o II

Characters/Pairings: YamaRyo, Ryu.
Author's Notes: This one is pretty fluffy. Sort of.
Yamamoto has fun with Ryu when they go to dinner. She's not really allowed to eat greasy food or too many carbs but Ryu insists on paying and greasy carbs are what he can manage afford to buy.
"I'll let you ride the zamboni one day," he promises, sitting on a park bench with her as they eat. "It'll be my gift to Yama-chan, since I can't buy anything fancy. And I'm not a tough buff coach either."
Yamamoto can't help laughing. "Whaaat? You're Ryu, it would be freaking weird if you were fancy or tough or anything like that!"
Title: Private Session I

Characters/Pairings: YamaRyo, Yara.
Author's Notes: Yara's playing games.
Yamamoto's heart is beating fast when she knocks on Yara's office door. She wonders if she's done something wrong. Maybe Yara heard about her eating greasy food or maybe he's noticed she's a little sluggish today. Her parents hadn't been to worried, since she called, but she wonders if they told him that she had been out with Ryu. Midnight bedtime and 5am preactice don't go together.
"Come in."
She's greeted with a smile when she goes in and Yara takes her hand, more suave than she knows him to be. "I thought we should arrange the first private session."
Title: And O! How it fails.

Characters/Pairings: YamaRyo, Yara.
Author's Notes: Only he doesn't play so well? I totally broke this ship tonight.
"U-um, I'm sorry!" Yamamoto says, stumbling back into the filing cabinet next to the door and blushing at the way Yara smirks. "I think I misunderstood what a private session was." He's a little too late, she's decided that she wants to give Ryu a chance now. If she gives into Yara, Ryu won't think any less of her or won't show it, anyway.
So she lets Yara kiss her. "Ryo-chan, you've become a beautiful woman."
She watches him shyly and returns the kiss before scurrying out of the office. "Thank you sir but I don't think this will work."
Title: Two for One isn't a special.

Characters/Pairings: Goseki, Yara.
Author's Notes: And then there were none.
Yara's still standing there in shock less than a minute later when Goseki struts in.
"Something wrong, Yaracchi?" she asks. She saw everything and she feels justified in smirking. It's what she calls justice, that there's been an intervention.
Yara allows himself to be pushed onto his chair, allows Goseki to straddle him. This is normal and the sex seems to shake him out of his disbelieving daze. Right after orgasm, Goseki gets her things together to leave. He stares. "Wait, where are you going?"
"Home," Goseki says simply. "You can't have two girls, Yaracchi. You're better off with none."
Title: Woman enough.
Unit for Points: A.B.C.-Z
Word Count: 100
Characters/Pairings: Goseki, Kawai.
Author's Notes: Kawai will take Goseki, even if Tottsu won't.
"Men are idiots," Goseki tells Kawai, voice slurring a little.
He doesn't know how much she's had to drink but counting the bottles on the table won't help because he's seeing more than there are. He thinks he might be drunk too. "Hey, I'm a man."
"I know. You're the biggest idiot."
"Then why are you telling me about your problems?" Kawai asks, a bit snotty in his drunk state.
Goseki's response is to shove him over and kiss him. Kawai doesn't really mind. Goseki might not be woman enough for Totsuka but she's more than woman enough for him.

Author's Notes: And the end. I'm going to sleep now e_e
"You're an idiot," Yonehana says.
"I know," Yara replies.
"The biggest idiot on the planet," Yonehana says.
"I know," Yara replies.
"You gotta get 'em when they're young or some kid'll sweep 'em of their feet," Yonehana says.
"I said I know!" Yara replies.
Yonehana turns to Machida to find her steadily eating her way through the snacks they bought to go with their drinks. "You'll get fat, you know."
Machida snorts. "I know."
"I hate both of you, you're depressing people!" Yonehana gets another beer.
Machida and Yara exchange a look behind his back, smiling a little. "We know."
