A/N: As promised, the KiKuro fic for Illuminate Rain! I apologise if I didn't take up any of your ideas but I'll put in a cute Kuroko trying to confess to Kise, just like what you wanted. This is a two-shot BTW.
And give a BIG shout to Ms. LycheeLove for her brilliant story, Invisible that helped me a lot in terms of reference for this story
Unbeta'ed as always! And BL
Summary: Kise drags Kuroko into modelling for just a one-time shoot due to desperation but the aftermath of it ain't really pretty, especially when their respective teams and the rest of the Generation of Miracles found out...

Kuroko was in a pinch right now.
It was a perfect Saturday morning, the sky was a lovely shade of blue with rolling clouds that blocked most of the sun's bright rays and the neighbourhood was peaceful. It felt like a good day to go out for a walk- that is- until he called.
"Please Kurokocchi?! Just this once! Please?!"
The sky-bluenette sighs heavily. "Why must it be me, Kise-kun? I have never modelled before."
"Don't worry about the little details! The makeup and hair stylists are really good and the wardrobe stylist as well and besides, at least they're not asking you to cross-dress."
Kuroko cringed at the prospect of that. "I will Ignite Pass you if you ask me to do that." The Phantom Player deadpans.
"Of course I won't! But please Kurokocchi? I really, really need you for this! My manager was thrilled about you when I showed your photo to him, he said you were the perfect model for this theme! PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE?"
The sky-bluenette sighs again. He didn't understand what exactly made him so 'perfect' for this particular theme. He is of average height, average lean built with slight muscles and of average looks? He knew that he wasn't attractive or so he thought? Kuroko never cared much about his looks to begin with. "Kise-kun, I'm not sure…"
"Please Kurokocchi, I'm seriously desperate right now. I would be eternally grateful to you!"
Kuroko contemplated for a minute but finally admitted defeat. "Fine, I will do it Kise-kun."
"Really?! YAY I LOVE YOU! Meet me at Majiba by ten, then I'll pick you up there. Thanks again Kurokocchi!" Then the line went dead.
The teen could only blink in surprise. Well, that escalated quickly...
At ten sharp, Kuroko was already waiting at the entrance of Maji Burger. He glanced around for a certain yellow-haired teen while checking his phone. 'Where is he?'
Then, a blur of yellow attacked his vision along with his ears with a very loud but distinctive 'Kurokocchi~!'.
Well, speak of the devil…
"Good morning Kise-kun."
"Kurokocchi, I really can't thank you enough for this! You've really saved me this time."
"It's alright and I really have nothing in mind today anyway."
"Alright, let's go! Hideaki-san must be waiting!" Kise grabbed the sky-bluenette's wrist and started running.
"W-wait, Kise-kun…!"
"Sorry Kurokocchi but we need to hurry!"
Kuroko didn't have time to argue back as both of them speed off to a sliver Nissan Teana. With someone waiting beside it.
This person was quite tall with luscious flowing bright yellow hair and equally bright eyes, long eyelashes, thick red lips, mildly-toned skin and with a figure to boot. She also looks really similar to…
"Ah Ryoucchi there you are! You're going to be late." The woman chided.
But wait, Ryou..cchi…? Sounds similar to Kise's way of calling people…
"Ah I'm sorry Nee-chan but I had to fetch Kurokocchi."
"Ahhh! Where is he?! Where is he?! I wanna meet the angel you showed me in your phone!" Her face dropped when she saw 'nobody' there. "Ryoucchi, where is he?"
"I'm right here."
The woman let out a shrilling and ear-piercing scream when Kuroko had spoken directly in front of her. "W-w-where did you come from?!"
"I was standing beside Kise-kun the whole time."
After calming down, she finally took in the sight of the boy. "OH MY! He's so cute! Just as you showed him the pictures and as you described him, Ryoucchi!"
"I told you." Kise smirked widely.
"Um…"
"I'm Kise Minami! Ryoucchi's older sister by four years. Nice to meet you, Kurokocchi!"
No wonder she looks similar to Kise-kun, she's his sister! Oh great, another person who's fond of putting the suffix '-cchi' in people's names.
"Likewise, Kise-san. I'm Kuroko Tetsuya, please to make your acquaintance." The teen bows pleasantly towards the elder one.
Minami was so awestruck at the boy's manners. "Ohhh! So polite as well! I LOVE CUTE AND POLITE BOYS!" She proceeded to hug the sky-bluenette, just like what her younger sibling always does…
The poor boy was being suffocated in the woman's death grip. "K-kise…-s-san…"
"Nee-chan! I still need him alive for today's shoot remember?!" Kise reminded his sister to which she released the sky-bluenette instantly.
"Oh my I almost forgot! We need to hurry. Get in boys."
They drove off, heading to Tokyo city, to Iris Models.
~~000~~~
Minami drops her brother and Kuroko off and the two headed inside.
And then, after Kuroko was done scaring the adults, introductions began.
Kuroko bowed to the man and introduced himself. "I'm Kuroko Tetsuya, please to make your acquaintance, everyone."
And again, everyone was taken aback by the boy's politeness.
"I'm Hideaki Akira, Kise-kun's manager. Please to meet you Kuroko-kun and I also apologise for dragging you into this but we really need your help just for this issue."
"It's alright Hideaki-san, I am free for today anyway."
"Thank you for taking it in stride Kuroko-kun!" A make-up artist added.
"But just to warn everyone, I am not very good at this.."
"Well this is your first time so of course! We understand, Kuroko-kun."
"Don't worry about the details as we will help you out." One hairdresser assured the boy.
"So Hideaki-san, mind explaining about today's session?"
"The brand we are using for today's theme is by LUKA, whose designs are sleek but also modern. Our theme this time is: BOYS' LOVE! Because of the Otaku culture that's been going around the world, we must match up to that! People are more into homosexual romance than hetero ones!" Kise's manager, Hideaki Akira, spouted at the agency, Iris Models, about his new theme for the next issue of Zunon Boy.
Everyone looked at each other, whispers and nods going around. True, lots of things like that are gaining popularity in Japan and the world. Japan does not recognise the same-sex marriage status but homosexual elements are predominant in anime and among others like gravure idols, models and even actors and voice actors. This is mainly used for fanservice purpose only but it always sells.
After nearly an hour worth of makeup and going through a variety of outfits, the photo-taking sessions began.
Despite some work on Kuroko's part, especially his facial expressions, many of the staff admire his diligence in making the photoshoot work as well as his figure which is more fitting of that on a model. Though Kise is not a surprise, many of them still wonder how Kuroko is a basketball athlete with that stature of his.
"Wow this Kuroko kid is really good! Has he never considered being a model before?" One makeup artist whispered to one of his colleagues.
"Yes he should! He's just a perfect match for Kise-kun!" He and the rest of the staff just watched in awe at their 'masterpieces' at work, the boys striking each pose in perfect harmony with their looks.
"Like the bright, shining golden sun in the vast, limitless light blue sky. That's how I can describe the two of them!" A wardrobe artist squeals in delight at seeing the two teens in her outfits.
Lots of snapping sounds, flashes, various lightings, props and tons of outfits later, everyone finally wrapped up the session.
"Good work today, everyone!"
After that, Kuroko and Kise went for some dinner before going home.
Both didn't tell anything to their teammates about the photoshoot so the rest of the week went well for both ex-Teikou students. Kise's teammates don't bother much about his modelling life anyway so he and Kuroko are safe from Kaijou. And the rest of the Miracles never cared about his career and hopefully, they won't pick up the next issue of his photo shoot.
But they weren't safe for long...
"HAAAAAH?!"
Were the simultaneous yells coming from none other than, the basketball team of Seirin High School who were having practice
The reason? Very simple actually but…utterly shocking for their young lives.
On the cover of the newest edition of Zunon Boy (which is also the magazine with the modelling agency Iris Models that features a certain sunshine-haired teen who had attended Teikou) that Riko had brought in because she had looked so frantic, causing the others to ask her what was wrong. Red faced, the brunette coach held up the magazine in front of their faces, had feature something they had not expected at all;
Their very own Shadow as well as the former Phantom Player of Teikou, Kuroko Tetsuya in a very eye-popping outfit or more like…just a plain but glittery white dress shirt but what made it odd was it seemed as if the size was deliberately incorrect. The shirt was definitely oversized as the sleeves went pass his hands, until his fingertips were almost overshadowed and the hem of it reached Kuroko's mid-thigh, his collarbone up until a bit of his shoulders, was exposed completely, giving him the 'boyfriend shirt' look! Though it can be seen that he was wearing a pair of black micro shorts underneath but his smooth, pale thighs were adorned in a pair of black thigh-high socks with a pair of penny loafers on his small feet.
Kuroko's usually blank features were enhanced with some natural-coloured makeup as his cheeks were painted a light tint of pink blusher to make it as seem he was flushed, his already long lashes were given a lusher shape and bringing out his eyes beautiful sapphire colour. His alabaster skin was contoured and applied with foundation plus powder in the right places thus giving his jawline and cheekbones much softer appearances than it already is. And his small but full lips were coated in a very light pink lip gloss that wasn't glittery nor sparkly so it looked perfectly natural but it harmonized with the shape of Kuroko's mouth.
But the nightmare didn't end there…
Kise's lean but muscular and (obviously) larger body which was dressed in a stunning black suit vest over a white dress shirt with a glittery yellow tie and black suit slacks, was hovering directly on top of Kuroko's much smaller and fragile one with the yellow-haired teen holding one of his legs up by the calf while Kise's left hand was gripping Kuroko's right wrist. His pretty face held a predatory look with a somewhat 'sexually twisted' (the best term Seirin could create at that moment) while the sky-bluenette's face was less passive-looking than usual as it showed him pouting erotically, being dominated by Kise.
The Kaijou player's face is already pretty on its own but this time, it seemed that the makeup artist didn't back down on the cosmetics as Kise's face had been contoured to show off his prominent, sturdy jawline that also accentuate his defined, pointed chin. His curly, long lashes were doubled with mascara and dark shadow was applied to his eyelids to give off the 'dark vibe'. His full lips were painted with a coral-pink gloss that went well with his toned skin but not enough to overpower the naturalness of his looks.
Both were on a bed covered in silky, satin-coloured sheet with a mixture of black and gold and aqua roses scattered all over the bed.
Oh how the horrors didn't cease as they flipped to the next page...
This time, both were shirtless, only wearing tight-fit jeans and covered in golden yellow and light blue...paint?!
Their pose wasn't any better.
The blonde was hugging the sky-bluenette close to his body, albeit in a position where Kise's head is tucked under Kuroko's chin with the former's face nuzzling the latter's chest, until no gap was left between them. The CopyCat of Kaijou was posing as if he was about to bite into the Phantom Player's white chest as the latter looked at the camera, expression was that of a pouting one. Kuroko was splattered in yellow colours while Kise was in blue.
"W-W-W-W-W-WHA..." Kagami couldn't form any coherent words whatsoever, Riko blushing like mad beside him and Hyuuga gaping with his glasses shadowing his eyes. The rest of the team stared wide eyed at the suggestive images.
The said person in question isn't there at the moment because he had to attend to after class clean-up duty along with some other classmates.
As the pages are flipped, more and more pictures came to view, getting more and more suggestive.
"How could Kuroko agree to this?!" Furihata shrieked while pulling at his hair.
"Maybe Kise blackmailed him?!"
"Don't be silly, Koga! He's not that low!" Tsuchida chided the feline-mouthed teen.
"Kuroko-kun is a quiet, reserve type. There's no way he would bathe himself under this kind of attention..." Riko said but her eyes never left the pages.
"But seriously, what's up with this month's theme?! It's so BL-ISH!" Hyuuga nearly screeched at the last part.
"Well Hyuuga, the cover does say 'Beautiful Boys, BL edition'…" Koganei pointed out.
"But still, these photos are too much!" Kagami's face was full-blown red, much like his hair.
"Hey, since when did Kuroko become a model?"
"HE'S NOT, KIYOSHI-D'AHO!" Hyuuga looked as if he was about to spontaneously combust.
Flipping to the last page to the final page, the last photo was definitely the final straw for them..
A very innocent and somewhat oblivious-looking Kuroko staring back at them but in a position that screamedsubmission,lying on a bed that was decorated in silky, red sheets, with lacy cushion pillows and even the blanket was frilly. He was on his hands and knees in a 'doggy-style' position with his perfectly round, smooth-looking buttocks, clothed in a pair of tight shorts, high up in the air and his chest and head were all the way down on the bed, supported by his chin. He was wearing the same outfit like on the cover but only this time, the shirt looked like as if it was about to come off! The collar of the shirt had slipped off his right shoulder with the collarbone baring in the light and a few of the buttons had been undone
And Kise?
The bastard (in Seirin's eyes), still in the same clothes minus the blazer, was positioned directly behind Kuroko with both his hands gripping the light-bluenette boy's hips and the face he wore was that of a sly fox.
"Wow, Kuroko looks really…" Kiyoshi gave an awkward smile when he looked at the last picture.
"Do you think the rest of the Miracles know about this?" Izuki popped a very interesting question, causing the team to look at him.
"I thought they usually don't care about that idiot's modelling career?" Hyuuga's grip on the poor photobook was almost killer.
"True, but with Kuroko on it? Won't that attract their interest?"
"Because Kuroko is in it?
"Well what they don't know won't hurt 'em. Besides, what are the chances of ANY of them picking up this issue?"
But elsewhere in various prefectures, there were others who had begun to recognise the very familiar face on the cover…
TBC..
