Author's note: this is just a story I thought up while I was bored. This is AoKise set in Teiko is a oneshot divided in two parts.

Part one

Aomine's POV

A friendly match somewhere in Kyoto. "Time's up !" the referee whistles. Finally... " Players of both teams please gather ! 32 points vs 116 , the winner of this match is Teiko ! Line up ! " I looked at the faces of our opponents, some of them were crying but I also received some hateful , I swallowed a chuckle but failed to cancel a smirk that didn't go unnoticed.

" Hey you, are you mocking us ? " One of the players yelled at me. "So, do you have a problem with it ?" I spat back. "Yeah you should respect us !" " Pfff, I snorted, I will respect you when you will be a match for us" " You-" the bastard grabbed my shirt. I was still unimpressed. " I hate little arrogant shits like you, I will teach you to respect us" He raised his fist " Come," I provoked him," I will kick your-" "Daiki, enough " Akashi intervened.I was gonna reiterate my provocation but the icy look Akashi gave me calmed me down quite a bit. "Please excuse the rude behaviour of my teammate, he is hot-headed. As his captain, I beg your pardon" The asshole sighed and let me go " Hmmpf okay, I will let it slide for this time". He looked at me, then added " You got lucky for today jackass !" to which I flipped him off. "Daikiiii..." Akashi warned. I waved my hand in the air " yeah, yeah, sorry". It was better to leave it at that, not that I was really scared of our captain, just that this silly argument was pointless.

That guy was probably a sempai, that tried to save the face of its teams despite having been crushed at home. Their basketball club was strong but it was no match for us. Seriously... why did Akashi insisted in coming here ? In the locker room, Akashi and Satsuki lectured me about my supposed "immature" also explained me that Todou middle school was also infamous for its fighting and ruthless delinquents and so I shouldn't 'start a fight with them'. I didn't argue, there was no point in arguing against both of them when they teamed up againt me. Ugh, I dreaded the punishment Akashi prepared for me when we get back to our training camp.

" Say, Akashichi ! " chirped Kise " How about you give us our day off ? " Midorima pushed up his glasses "Are you serious ? We are not here to play " " Come on..." he pouted. " We are in Kyoto for God's sake. They are so many things to do beside training and we are the strongest anyways, it's not like one day off training is gonna kill us." "Well,you have a point for the day off. Do what you want for the afternoon. " "Yeees ! Thank you (in english) Akashichi" "Hmmpf , Kise really acts like a kid" said Midorima. " Yes.. a kid really" I added. I didn't show it but I was relieved that my punishment was postponed for a day. " So what is everyone is gonna do ?" Kise asked excitedly. " There are some castles, I want to visit " Akashi explained. "Let me go with you" Midorima proposed. "What about you Kurokocchi ?" I almost jumped. It's so easy to forget he is there. "Hmmm I guess I will go with Midorima and Akashi" he answered. " Then, can I come with you? " Satsuki asked blushing. "You're welcolme Momoi-san." Tetsu... he was good at hiding his emotions but I know that he was depressed lately, that and he was avoiding me. I clenched my fists, I miss him and yet I didn't have the courage to face him yet. " Say Aomine, how about we go together to Maji's ? I am starving" Kise asked it got me out of my gloomy thoughts "Ah yeah" I answered lamely. " Mine-Chin, Kise-chin count me in too, I 'm hungry ~~" Murasakibara exclaimed. "Yeah let's go !" Kise chirped. I will never understand where all of Kise's radiant energy comes from. "Seriously, what's the point of visiting Kyoto if it's to eat at a fastfood ?" Midorima remarked. "It's still better than training." Kise darted his tongue. "Whatever. Let's meet later at the training camp. The curfew is at 9 PM . Tomorrow we have to train early so don't be late, especially you Daiki" Akashi narrowed his heteromatic eyes on me. I swallowed.

2 hours later at Maji's

"... and so next week, me and my agent are gonna go to Europe for a special photoshoot..." I didn't listen to Kise's excited rambling and continued to swallow my fries and my burgers just like Murasakibara. "Hey are you listening ? " Kise pouted. "No I'm not listening" I answered frankly " Mmm what were you talking about already ?" Murasakibara lazily asked. Kise falling expression made me chuckle. " Whatever, Kise, don't ya have more exciting stories for us ? " I asked slyly. " Like ...what ?" "Well,ya know.. hot stories between you and your female models friends." Kise looked flustered at my insinuation. "You know, I'm not like that Aominecchi" "Heh" I smirked "What about you and your male models friends then ? " Murasakibara almost choked on its food and Kise blushed harder. " W-well, n-no..." he stammered. I laughed internally : teasing Kise was so much fun. "So what's yer type then ?" Kise opened his mouth to say something but Murasakibara cut him " Well, I gotta go ~" . "What already ? You don't wanna come to the arcades with us Murasakibaracchi ? " "Nah, now that I ate my fill, I'll go back to the training camp. See you later. " And just like that Murasakibara exited the restaurant leaving the two of us alone." Umm, Aominecchi, about my type I...I" I looked Kise, he still looked flustered but also oddly determined. A red flag raised in my head. This is no good. "Yeah, yeah I was just joking" I dismissed him. I took my food tray and put it on his place. "Let's go to the arcades Kise" Kise closed his mouth for the second time that day. I had an inkling about what he was gonna tell me but I didn't want to hear it. Definitely. I sighed, so much for teasing him. We both exited the restaurant.

As we weren't familiar with the area, Kise asked our way to an old lady who gladly helped us. Apparentely, Kise's charms worked on old people too. And so we walked for at least 30 minutes, when I noticed something weird. "Kise" I whispered walking closer to him " don't turn around we are being followed" He looked at me with an expression that screamed 'what !?' I looked at him with expression that screamed: 'Don't panic'. He seemed to calmed down and resumed our mental conversation.I felt their steps getting closer,I frowned, it was the ideal place for an ambush. The shortcut the Obaa-chan showed us included this narrow empty street. I placed my hand in front of Kise who eyed me curiously. I looked at him and mentally told him 'let's run in five. four .three' Kise gulped and my fingers continued the countdown ' Go !'. We both ran as fast as we could.
