A/N: I'm leaning towards SenKosh lately.. Hmm...
Chapter 1: Koshino
Sigh... Koshino let out an audible sigh as he waited for Sendoh to finish his serious talk with the coach. They were taking such a long time. "Probabaly scolding Sendoh for being late again.." The fiery lad muttered under his breath as he leaned against the gymnasium wall and closed his eyes. Practice was over fifteen minutes ago and they were still hanging out here. He was sweaty and exhausted. All he wanted to do was go home, eat something, take a long shower, and fall asleep on his bed. The truth was, Koshino had no idea why he was even waiting for the spiky-haired boy to finish. True, they were best friends but that didn't mean he had to wait like this.
He did not know whether he had fallen asleep or something but he was jolted out of his peaceful thoughts when Sendoh snapped his fingers in front of his face. "Huh? Wha?" Koshino uttered, rubbing his eyes and yawning. Yes, he must have fallen asleep. Damn Sendoh for making him wait this long. "What time is it anyway?" He asked.
Sendoh glanced at his watch and smiled apologetically. "Eight in the evening.." Koshino's eyes went wide. He had waited for a whole hour? Sendoh shrugged his shoulders with a carefree expression on his face. Koshino frowned and crossed his arms. "It's about time you were finished. I'm not gonna wait forever you know." With that remark, he stepped out of the gym to be followed shortly by Sendoh.
Their houses were right next to each other so they walked home together. Koshino used to think that it was such a cool thing because he could always come over Sendoh's house and vice-versa. Nowadays, it was only tiring him out. The spiky-haired boy walked a few inches ahead of him and Koshino took this time to observe his best friend. Sendoh was handsome. There was no doubt about that. All the girls went gaga over him and he was secretly pleased to know that he knew Sendoh since childhood. It was such a funny idea to realize you've just witnessed the transition of your childhood friend into a basketball superstar.
At the same time, he felt sad. Koshino knew that he would never be more than a friend in Sendoh's eye. The Ryonan ace was just too 'straight' to even consider the crazy idea. He would simply be a spectator in Sendoh's life. He envied the girl who would claim his best friend's heart. The girl would really be lucky because Sendoh was the most caring, loving and thoughtful person he has ever known. Sure he wasn't always on time for practice and sure he could be really annoying at times but Koshino loved him all the same.
"Hey, we're here already." Sendoh remarked. Koshino looked up. So, he was right. He didn't even notice how far they had walked since he was to preoccupied with his own thoughts. "I guess we'd better get home now. Oyasumi, Koshino." Sendoh said as he entered his own house.
"Oyasumi." Koshino replied, his voice barely above a whisper.
