Time to seriously be together please
Ch. 1
"Kuroko! Come on, let's go see the campus!" The taller of the two calls out, knocking on the other's bedroom door. Silence, 'is he still asleep?' Kagami thinks, thinking of knocking again he's taken by surprise when the doorknob moves. "Sorry... Kagami-kun, I don't think I'll be able to go... you can go by yourself..." kuroko suggest, only poking his head out of the door crack. "Hmm? Why? Not feeling well?" the other asks. "Nothing to worry about, just a slight headache. I'm worried it might turn to a fever later" he adds, his head already starting to retreat inside. "That's weird-" kuroko closes the door, leaving kagami's sentence unfinished.
'Weird? What's so weird about getting a little headache from lack of sleep?' Kuroko wonders, he wasn't able to sleep properly last night since he couldn't help think of what kagami did. He tried of thinking of something else to make him sleep but it kept going back to the kiss he received. He'd come up with a few reasons as to why the red haired teen did it. It was either a revenge for kissing him first or it was a mere greeting, but there was no need of that and kuroko already made it clear in his head that what he did was a mistake or out of impulse, maybe kagami hated it that much. Kagami said to think of it by himself, kuroko's eyes twitch, why the tiger just cant give a proper reason annoyed him. He leans his back on the door, hearing a thud from outside he wonders whether his roommate has already left. Opening the door he sees kagami kneeling in the doorway, a tray of food being neatly placed at the side. "Ah, I thought you'd be hungry" he explains "there's some medicine for headaches here too... you should eat some before taking them" he stands up, tray still in his hands and handing it to the smaller teen. Kuroko only stares for a while, making kagami feels awkward, he's already become used to it but due to yesterday it couldn't be helped. Kuroko finally grabs the tray of food, nodding a thank you and in the middle of going inside his room he states "it's kagami-kun's fault that I didn't get any sleep last night." With that, he disappears back inside his room.
Placing the tray on his bed, he hears a loud thud from outside. Curious to know what is was, he asks kagami through the door "Is everything alright?" Kuroko makes his voice louder; making sure the other heard him. He hears heavy footsteps stutter and another thud, probably on the wall. 'He fell? Tripped? And I thought I wasn't feeling well' "Yeah! I just tripped, I'm fine!" The other replies while he suppressed a smile.
He was thinking about it all night? Damn... kuroko, can't you figure it out faster? Kagami thinks, after three years of worrying so much about what the other teen felt for him and now finally getting very good signs of it, he couldn't help want things to progress more faster. He'd made a decision to wait though, thinking how amusing it would be to have the smaller teen confess to him. Knowing kuroko, he might simply just say the word with an unwavering straight face, seeing him stutter and blush while confessing was only something kagami could dream of. Either way, he'd fully accept the confession and quickly lift him up and head for the bed. Seeing kuroko blush and embarrassed had become one of kagami's goal ever since he fell for the teen. And he was sure that he could make Kuroko wear that expression as much as he wanted to… once, he confesses.
After a while, kuroko finally leaves his room to take the dirty dishes to the kitchen. He looks around the apartment, noticing that kagami was already gone. He really left… we'll both be attending college in a few days. I wonder what'll it be like… he wonders, entering the living room, apparently, the medicine Kagami gave worked fine. He sits on the couch, slumping to get more comfortable. Boring… I don't want to go outside… What should I do? Maybe I should've went with him and ignored my headache… I think it's better than waiting here. He must be staring at the college's huge gym right now… playing with some of our future teammates and getting introduces by the couch. I want to play basketball… I hope I can get along with all the other members, I'm sure they'll think that I'm weird at first but that can't be helped… I'll be with kagami-kun so it'll be fine…
I think I'm getting homesick… I hope Kagami-kun returns quickly… Kuroko thinks, letting his body fall on the couch. I wonder how the others are doing? I want to check on tetsuya#2… He sits up straight again, standing and heading to his room. He places himself in front of the computer and starts it up. Logging on to chat and ask about his pet.
He gets sight of #2 trough the webcam with his family, his parents didn't want the dog to be trouble while they were studying, so they refused to let the dog come with their son. After checking on his dog and family, he hovers the mouse to close the chat to log off, suddenly stopping when he gets a message from Momoi.
[Tetsu! You're online! I'm so happy!] Momoi sends, her unrequited love unwavering even after getting rejected by Kuroko when he announced to leave Japan.
[It's been a while, Momoi] Kuroko replies, happy that she seemed fine even after the rejection, it was nice to still be able to remain friends.
[Kurokochi! This is so awesome! Guess what, guess what! We're hasdfeigag] the teen receives the message, realizing the two was together at the time and probably fighting over the keyboard.
[Sorry! Kise is here, he's so annoying!] Probably, coming from Momoi.
[The two of you are together?] Kuroko asks.
[Wait! It's not what you think! Dai-chan and me were shopping and then we met Kise on the way! That's all!] She explains.
[Aomine-kun is also with you? You're all still so lively…] How nice…
[Tetsu… (T_T) We miss youuuuuu… You shouasfdewghl] Momoi's typing obviously interrupted.
[How's it been?] Kuroko receives, now Aomine was the one in control.
Ah… Maybe I can ask him about that… his and Kagami-kun's way of thinking are a little alike.
[Everything's fine, by the way Aomine-kun… can I ask you something?] He sends.
[Sure, what's wrong?]
With that, Kuroko tells them everything that happened. The group pestering for more detail, most from Kise and Momoi, Aomine was letting them type.
[It was a greeting! GREETING! DON'T KEEP THINKING ABOUT IT KUROKOCHI!] Was Kise's opinion, forced opinion.
[Don't go near him! No matter what, you don't need to understand… just always remember to lock your room when you go to sleep and and and… tetsu… I'm going over there! And and and… do something!] Was Momoi's reaction, probably in panic now and being calmed down by Kise or Aomine. Kuroko can only wait for a more proper reply.
[Tetsu…?] He receives.
[Yes?]
[I've… honestly been scouted.]
[What do you mean?] Kuroko wonders how the conversation ended up there. He doesn't wonder why Aomine got scouted though.
[What you told us just now… just got me to decide whether I should take it or not.]
