I DO NOT OWN SLAM DUNK

Prologue

"Sensei! Sensei!" Hanamichi Sakuragi keep calling as he ran fast in the hospital hallway. He couldn't shaken off this nervousness he's feeling right now the moment he received a message the his sensei Nakamoto rushed to the hospital while he's having his afternoon practice.

"Hanamichi...calm down...don't shout we're in the hospital..." Youhei Mito said, running next to him.

"Shut up! Sensei is in danger...how can I calm down." He replied. He stopped and hold onto his knees as they finally reached their destination. He took a deep breath and open the door. "Sensei..." He whispered and saw the man sitting on the bed, reading a book.

"Hana-kun.." The man closed the book he's reading and welcome them with a warm smile as the redhead approaching him. "Did you get into fight again Hana-kun?" He asked when the noticed the bruises and few band aids on his face.

Sakuragi taken aback. 'Damn it...I forget about it' he muttered. "Sensei...what happen are you alright?" Sakuragi asked worriedly and to changed the topic as well. He sat next to him and touched the sensei's forehead. "Do you have a fever or something like that?"

"Relax Hana-kun." He chuckled. "Nothing to worry, I'm just tired that's all." He smiled sweetly. "Didn't you promised me the other day that you won't get into a fight with anyone again?"

"Hmp." Sakuragi pouted. He knows that this guys will never stop reminding about what they talked about last time. Always worried about him. But somehow,he felt relieved to see his sensei. "It's not my fault...those guys are- you see... They started it...right Youhei?" He defended himself. He looked at Youhei Mito, his best friend as if asking for help. "Right..right Youhei?"

"Ano Nakamoto Sensei...how shall I explain it?" Mito just scratched his head not really know what to say. "Coz...coz they..." He stuttered.

"Don't worry Mito-kun...you don't have to explained." He replied.

"Sensei...are you sure you're okay...?"

The man took Sakuragi's hand gently and look at him straightly with an obvious sadness in his eyes. "Hana-kun, to tell you the truth.. I ... I have to leave so soon..." And he averted his eyes from him.

"Leave? You mean for vacation?" Sakuragi asked innocently, tilting his head.

"I've always wanted to stay here longer with you... To watch you till you grow more older..." And leaned closer and whisper. "To witness and to caress your more mature beautiful naked body." He teased that made Sakuragi blushed.

"Why you perver-!"

"But I think I don't have much time as I need to leave soon. " he continued. He slowly leaned his head over Sakuragi's shoulder. "Hana-kun, please promise me that you will stay the same as you are...and keep moving forward to reach your dream..."

The redhead push the man and change his sitting position to face him. "Sensei...what are you saying... Are you saying you're not coming back here... If.,.if you want I'll go with you...I'll go wherever you are..."

The man just smile and gently holds Sakuragi's hand to put over his chest. He lean his forehead to Sakuragi's. "Hana-kun..please always remember that...no matter what. This...this is always belong to you...this heart of mine..."

"Hm.. Sensei I don't really get what are you trying to s-" he cutted off when the man slowly fell off him. He's too shocked to react immediately.

"Nakamoto-sensei! Oi Hanamichi" Mito called out as he noticed his friends reaction. He gently moved the older man to lay him on his bed and shook him. "Sensei..wake up...sensei."

Sakuragi cannot moved at all. He's terrified that made his body turns numb, while watching his bestfriend moving his sensei. His heart beats faster and louder. He's been facing a lot of scary looking dude before. But this is the first time in his life that he felt so scared. His eyes widened in realization that just now he noticed the changes in his teacher's appearance. The teacher became looked more thinner and paler. How come he never noticed it before, he thought.

"Sensei! Sensei! What's wrong...sensei? Wake up please!" He snapped and called out loud while trying the wake up the man. "Youhei...call the doctor...hurry... Sensei! Sensei!

4 years later...

"Sugoi..this university is really huge... Isn't it Hanamichi." Mito exclaimed with amazement. "Did you see their buildings and clubs...amazing right?"

"The fuck are you..elementary kid?!" Sakuragi replied in annoyance, not bothering himself about those stuffs.

"Man, you're so cold..." Mito said, looking at the back of his bestfriend. 'He really changed alot eversince that happened...'

"Come on let's go.. I need to check their basketball team..."

"Okay."

"Get out." Kaede Rukawa gritted his teeth and trying hard to hold his temper, starting the car engine.

"Ouch, how can you be so cold to your lovable onii-chan." Akira Sendoh complained, positioning himself at the passenger seat. "My car isn't ready yet..so let me go with you..ne Kae-chan..."

"Tch." The younger guy hissing through his teeth. 'Damn annoying' he muttered to himself. He knew that no matter how much he resist, once his older cousin sat on his car, he can't do nothing to let him out. How convenient and so damn annoying that they both ended up having the same profession and the same university to work for. He took a deep breath, knowing that it's futile to argue with Sendoh anymore. "Fine, just be quiet."

"Yey..thanks... Ru-ka-wa sensei." He replied happily with a teasing tone and put on his seatbelt.
