Figure skater

Ivan is an incredible figure skater, he’s been practicing since he first was capable of it and is soon competing in the Olympics.

You and Ivan started dating a little over a year ago, (much to his father’s disproval), and everything has been relatively perfect. You always watch his competitions and try to help him out.

With the Olympics coming up Ivan has been extremely stressed. He breaks down easily, lashes out and gets angry, he’s constantly frustrated and is an extreme perfectionist. His Russian father and coach treat the sport extremely seriously due to it being important to his families culture. They make him be perfect and put huge pressure on him.

After a long practice day you were there at the end to pick him up. It was dark and Ivan had been working all day everyday, you watched the last bits of his practice and he was beautiful. He was perfect.

You went into the locker room and sat at a bench waiting for him to come in. When Ivan walked in the doors he looked exhausted and frustrated, you frowned and stood up. He stared at you for a minute before walking towards you and collapsed into your arms.
