Capter 2
"... I'm in love with her, Kagami."
Even though he knew what was coming, it hurt ... so much. He won't hear of it. He wanted to be out of here. He wanted to hide in his bed for days or at least for the rest of the day. Kagami was just about to come up with an excuse to go to as...
However, I don´t know how to tell her ... Can you help with, Kagami?
Kagami was shocked. He hadn´t expected this.
"I should help you to get her as your girlfriend..." Kagami muttered more to himself.
Kagami swallowed hard and continued to look at his trembling hands, which seem to shiver more than ever now.
I'm supposed to help him ... why me ...
Kagami didn't know how long he had been sitting here like this, gaze to the ground to not look at him ...it seemed to him like hours... days, but in reality it was perhaps only seconds.
Kagami could literally feel the eyes of the tanned male next to him while he waited for a response. Kagami sighed softly and thought about the two options he had. He could help Aomine to get the girl of his dreams, which looked exactly like him. Aomine would be happy and he destroyed.
Hmmm ... great would be like to voluntarily jump into a pile of knives ... who wants that ...
He could also just say no to Aomine ... tell him that he has no idea about this topic and it´s impossible that he can help him.
Great...
Kagami sighed again as he been aware of his 2 possibilities . Well... there is also a third possibility. Run away as fast as he can, never turn around and go home and hide under the blanket, ignore everything and let the dust settle on it.
The best is to book the next flight to America and disappear from Japan ... tell no one about it ... just leave and forget everything and everyone...
What´s a mess... As if I could do that ... run away ... impossible.
So only A or B remained. Kagami sighed again, the perceived thousandth time today. Help Aomine and destroy himself ... or not help him and make him possibly unhappy ...
While he wondered how he should choose, he wondered whether Aomine was still there. It was just too quiet.
Slowly he looked up and saw in midnight blue eyes which were staring at him full of expectation. Those eyes in which he could lose himself every time.
Kagami cleared his throat, hoping that his voice wouldn´t sound as weak as he thinks it.
Sorry Aomine... I simply can´t...
"I... I will of course help you ..."
"Really?"
"Yeah...", Kagami muttered and sighed. Crap. His mouth was once again faster than his head, but how could he refuse those blue eyes something?And if this answer triggered such a reaction in Aomine, he voluntarily jumps in the mountain of knives.
I am so screwed.
Aomine smiled his true, stunning smile and was so happy that he hugged Kagami.
"Thank you! You're really the best !" , said Aomine and Kagami could feel the giggling more than hear it. Yes ... Aomine hugged him and he couldn't believe it. He has never seen Aomine like this before. He was so happy and relieved...
Kagami´s heartbeat pounded a little faster and he could feel the heat rising to his face because he was never so close to Aomine before. Kagami could laugh and cry at the same time. For the first time he was so close to Aomine but at the same time also so incredibly far away. Unfortunately, it was just as fast over again as it happened.
"Thank Kagami ... really thank you"
"Yeah ... no problem ..."
"Soo ... what should I do? You know ... that's kinda new to me ..".
And this time Aomine looked at the floor.
"...of course ... I had a few girlfriends before but they were just different ... I haven´t really loved them ... it was just ... just ... boobs"
Kagami stared at him and couldn't believe it .. he really wanted to hit his head...or Aomine's? He didn't know.
Boobs ... for real?
"But now it's different ... I think she is the right one ..."
It hurts. Never before has he seen Aomine like this. His bright eyes and the smile that never leaves his mouth ...
Maybe I should have just run? damn!
"Well ... what does she likes?"
"Well ... she likes Bee."
"Bees?" Do you actually notice that you have almost nothing in common with her, you dumbass!
"Yeah ... I know ... don´t say anything ..." and Aomine sighed.
"She likes to read books, she is even in a book club but don´t ask me what's she doing there ... she likes to walk, preferably in forests or so and she has a sweet tooth. Her favorite are cakes with strawberries, vanilla and white chocolate."
Kagami was surprised at how much Aomine knows about...about...
"What´s her name?"
"Akane", said Aomine softly and Kagami felt the sudden urge to beat the bank.
He was jealous. Jealous of this Akane by whom the blue-haired told so enthused and Kagami has never seen.
Like if I want this...
But he couldn't be mad at her. She didn't know her and she hasn't done anything wrong ... She only has something or better someone what he wants .. Okay he did not know whether she wanted Aomine but she would has to be brainless and blind if she doesn't want the dark skinned man.
"Listen, you could go on a trip with her ... go for a walk somewhere or something like that. You could prepare a picnic ... or better I'm doing this and you watch out that you don´t drop the basket. I could bake a cake with her name or "I love you" written on it ... or whatever you want ..."
"You'd really do this for me?"
"Yeah ... believe it or not Ahomine .." I don´t understand myself.
"You are awesome Kagami! Thank" said Aomine and smiles at Kagami whose heart beats all of a sudden faster.
"I-"
Suddenly it thundered so loud that both winced.
"Uhh! When did it become so dark? Shit looks like rain. Bakagami, rather let us go home before it starts to rain. Oh please write only her name on it, okay? And if all goes well, I invite you to as thanks to the wedding! Or better yet, you'll be my best man!"
Aomine hopped off the bench, turned around one more time with his typical smirk before he waved goodbye and ran home. Kagami sat still on the bench and didn't move.
Best man, yeah ... that would be great ...
Nearly 20 minutes later, he was still sitting on the same bench, trying to figure out what has happened. Leaning of elbows onto his knees, hands dropping between them, he was so deep in his thoughts that he didn't even notice how it started to rain.
What did I do?... I should go home...
Only he couldn´t seem the strength to get up and go home.
Suddenly it started to pour and Kagami looked up at the sky. He couldn't care less about the rain ... actually, he was glad about the rain. No one could see his tears which he could no longer hold back.
Whether he was now completely soaked from top to bottom and sick tomorrow he doesn't care. He wanted to see no one and just crawl back under the covers...
"Kagami-kun, are you alright? "
"Hmmm ... ", muttered Kagami whose head was resting on the table all day long. In the meantime, he wondered why even no teacher had said something ... after all, it's the penultimate subject for today. The only thing he could feel all the time were the worried looks from the light blue-haired shadow behind him. Kagami sighed.
Why didn't I stay at home?
It was not even a day ago when he heard the terrible news but he went to school, because he hoped to arouse less suspicion. But Kuroko has noticed again that something was wrong with him. Okay ... that was really not difficult. He looked worse than when he has a important game next day and he couldn't sleep all night. His huge dark circles and puffy red eyes leave no questions about what he has been doing all night ... Cried. Cried under his blanket and tried to forget everything. Unfortunately, it was pointless... especially as Aomine sent him a sms that he would like to make the picnic on Saturday.
Great ... two days ...
In two days he would lose his chance completely ... not that he ever had one and it wouldn't make a difference whether it is in 2 days or 2 years ... but still ...
Kagami heard the sound of a shifting chair and looked up now. He found that Kuroko was sitting at his desk and looked at him with concern.
"Something happens, Kagami-kun?"
Kagami sighed. He didn't want to tell..never.
"No ... don´t worry. Couldn't sleep last night."
"Do you really think I believe this? Has Aomine-kun done something?"
...shit...
"No ... we just played basketball. "
"And? That can´t be anything!"
"Hach ..." Kagami put his head back on the table. He regretted to have come to school ...
"We played basketball ... I lost ... he said that he is in love with a girl ... asked me if I help him...", Kagami said so quietly that it was barely a murmur.
Unfortunately,Kuroko has heard it and his eyes widened a little bit in shock.
"... And?" Kuroko asked now even quieter and his concern was clearly heard.
"... will help him ..." Kagami muttered.
"You really help him? ... Are you stupid?"
Kagami jerked his head up. His eyes shimmered a little, as if he fought again with his tears.
"Kuroko ! That's the last thing I want to hear from you !" said he angrily.
"But that's true, Kagami-kun. Why did you agree to help him in your position?"
Kagami looked at his fingers.
"What was I supposed to do when he looks at me like that ..."
"I see. You're a hopeless case."
Thank you, "said he dry.
"And what do you have to do now?"
"Well ... actually I only have to prepare a picnic basket and bake a cake"
" ... You could poison the cake", said Kuroko with a serious face and Kagami was shocked.
"K-Kuroko, I cannot do that!"
" Hmmm ... then bake something very disgusting? "
" Kuroko stop it! It's not her fault ... "
" And until when? "
"... Until the day after tomorrow ..."
"The day after tomorrow?"
"Yeah great, isn´t it?" and Kagami give him a forced smile.
Saturday arrived unfortunately faster than expected. On Friday he baked a vanilla dream with strawberries inside the cake and small slivers of white chocolate on the top. With a strawberry syrup he wrote "Akane" on top and painted a little heart next to it. On Saturday morning, he had just finished with the basket as Aomine came to pick it up.
"Wish me luck," said the blunette before he was gone again.
Since then, hours had passed and Kagami just sat on his couch- knees on his chest and arms around his legs- and stared at the wall... he hadn´t eaten for hours ... but he wasn´t hungry. Suddenly, his phone rang and he stared at it.
"Do I really want to know? ..."
Kagami didn´t need to read, he knew what was inside. He looked 10 minutes at the flashing of his cell phone before he sighed and read the message.
Bakagami, we did it ! She said yes ! Thank you so much ! Really I couldn´t do this without you.
PS .: Your cake was a dream ! It was sooo good , I wanted to eat it all by myself!
Kagami didn't even bother to answer and let himself fall sidewise on his couch.
Time passed and it was not easier. Kagami tried to forget everything ... his feelings ... Aomine ... everything ... but it was not so easy. He wanted to see him as little as possible but somehow Aomine managed to push himself again and again in Kagami´s life. Sometimes he just stands in front of his door, no matter what time of day or night it was and demanded something to eat, a one-on-one, or he simply seized Kagami´s couch to read his "special" booklet.
Once Aomine even brought his Akane with too a one-on-one ... one of the worst days in Kagami's life. He just wanted to get away.
Akane was nice and she really looked like him. Nevertheless, he was annoyed that she came with , especially since she didn't like basketball. Kagami was jealous. Jealous of the attention the blue-haired gave her and his whole manner, when he was with her. But even now he could not hate her ...
It was months ago when Aomine and Akane came together.
Kagami just hoped the pain would go away at some point ... and rather sooner than later ...
Maybe I need to withdraw from him even further ...
Kagami was sitting on his couch, reading the latest basketball magazines.
Today was actually a good day. After he had slept through the night again (which was not always the case lately) he had breakfast at Maji Burger. Later he met with Kuroko and they went together to a nearby basketball court. There, they met their old Senpais and they played all day. Kuroko had organized this meeting and Kagami had as much fun as he hadn´t for a long time.
He could at least briefly forget the dark-skinned man. Kagami smiled to himself when he saw the flash of his mobile phone.
Maybe Kuroko?
When reading froze his smile...
"W-What?"
Hey Bakagami! What's up? Akane and I are getting married ! And I want you as my best man, understood?! The wedding ceremony is on-
Kagami couldn't continue. No way he would have thought that a nice day could turned so easily into a disaster.
"Marry ... impossible ...", murmured he as his cell phone rang next to him and Kuroko's name appeared.
"K ... Kuroko ..."
"Listen Kagami-kun! Aomine-kun has just told me ... and you probably too."
"Y-Yeah ..." whispered Kagami.
"All right. I can imagine how difficult it is for you now and you prefer to hide somewhere, never come out again and want to talk to anyone but-"
"sums it up very well ..."
"Look, there are always nice days like today, too."
"Until I got the message .. "
"Kagami-kun ... beautiful days will come back and eventually you will be able to laugh at everything. I know how hard it is for you right now, especially with the pregnancy of Akane but- "
"W-WHAT !" Kagami almost shouted into the phone.
"Pregnancy? ..." now it's just a faint whisper
"...Kagami-kun? I thought Aomine-kun told you about that? "
"No ... nothing of a pregnancy ... only from the wedding ..and I should be his best man", said Kagami no louder than a whisper.
"Oh .. I'm sorry, Kagami-kun. I didn't know that you don´t know it" and Kagami could hear the concern in Kuroko's voice.
"It's all right Kuroko ... not your fault ... look Kuroko ... I would now like to take a shower and then go to bed ... I'm pretty tired, you know? "
"Is everything alright? Should I come over?"
" No you don´t need to, I'm fine. Thank Kuroko."
"Okay Kagami-kun. I come over tomorrow okay?"
"Yeah, do that. Goodnight Kuroko."
"Good night, Kagami-kun. Sleep well."
Kagami suddenly felt so tired and his heart ached.
Getting married ... and pregnant ...
This informations were a great shock to him. This time he let his tears run free ... anyway there was no one who could see him ...
Suddenly he remembered a tip from Alex, that if you are sad, you have to listen to music to cheer yourself up. He quickly reached for the remote control of his CD radio and pressed play. Since he came back from America he hasn't even once listened to music ... he didn't even know whether a CD was in it. But it looked as if it would work and shortly thereafter the first sounds of Sam Smith "Not in that way" could be heard. Kagami sat back and stared up to the ceiling.
And I hate to say I love you
When it´s so hard for me
This CD is from Alex...
And I hate to say I want you
When you make it so clear
Kagami shots more and more tears in the eyes, which flowed slowly down his face. He closed his eyes and let out a forced breath.
You don´t want me
I´d never ask you
A quiet sob escaped from him.
What was I doing to myself? What had he done to me?
You´d say
I´m sorry
believe me
I love you
but not in that way...
On the day of the wedding ...
! Damn it !This Bakagami !" Why doesn´t he answer ?
Aomine ran up and down while he kept trying to reach Kagami.
"Aomine-kun, please stop it. Your back and forth is annoying."
"Tetsu ! Do you know where Bakagami is? I'm trying to reach him for days but he doesn´t answer his phone !"
"..."
"Come on Tetsu ! You know it ! Please tell me ! It is very important for me ..."
"... he's gone ..."
Aomine stopped immediately and looked into the emotionless face of his previous shadow.
"W-What did you say? gone? How gone ...? "and mild panic could be heard.
Kuroko sighed and couldn´t believe it.
"Like I said, he's gone Aomine-kun. His apartment is empty, he has left Tokyo."
But ... now was Aomine dejection clearly noticeable . Suddenly, his eyes no longer glowed and any smile was completely gone.
"Aomine-kun, I say this to you now as a friend but sometimes you are really dense."
Aomine looked at his feet and couldn`t believe what he had just heard ...
gone...
