... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

There were many things that Kise had set out to do when he had gotten out of bed that morning, but this certainly wasn't it. Here he was, in the hospital, beside a bet that held his precious Kuroko, who had just gotten surgery for appendicitis, and was now absolutely high off his ass off of morphine. And the best part? Kuroko was feeling chatty.

"What if I was a strawberry?" Kise laughed softly at the bluenette's musings. "Then you would be a very sweet strawberry." Kuroko clapped his hands, his face completely straight as he said "I could be a giraffe and beat people with my neck." Kise blinked. "Kuroko, are you alright." "It's raining lemons, how could I possibly be alright?" Kise covered his mouth, trying not to laugh. It was the fact that Kuroko was as monotone as ever while spouting this nonsense.

It only made Kise love him even more.

Kise listened to Kuroko say something about tomatoes and cucumbers and whatever else he had on his mind. Eventually, the subject came around to basketball. "I loooove basketball." He made a barking noise like #2 would. Kise laughed, leaning back in his seat. "Kurokochii, you're so cute!" Kuroko looked right at him, and, in his monotone voice, said "I know, I'm fucking adorable."

Kise grinned. "Kurokochii~" "What is it, unicorn?" Kise snorted, then grinned mischievously. He decided to use this to his advantage. "Kurokochii, who do you like?" Kuroko tilted his head. "Who do I like? I like basketball-kun." Kise laughed softly. "I mean, who do you like-like. Who do you love?" Kuroko let a smile cross his face, making Kise's heart flutter.

"Kise-kun. I love Kise-kun."

Kise didn't believe his ears at first. "Who?" Kuroko looked at him. "Kise-kun. I love Kise-kun. Could you tell him for me, unicorn? I'm too worried he'll say he doesn't like me."

Kise had never been so happy. He pulled Kuroko into a hug gently, being mindful of his stitches, and whispered "I love you, Kurokochii."

"Kise? Where did you come from? Did the unicorn tell you?" Kise laughed softly and kissed the blue-eyed boy on the nose. "Yes, the unicorn told me."

"Good. I was worried that he might tell Akashi instead."
