A.N : Awww! You guys are so sweet QAQ T-thank you! I'll do my best! I apologize for my very late update. As my profile told you, the exams is piercing me mercilessly QAQ Anyway, the shadows speak through his dreams, it doesn't mean that they could see what he does. Anyway, I erased the shadows about being easily provoked because.. e_e you know.. they didn't slaughter Kuroko in his dream(?)
Disclaimer : I do not own Kuroko no basuke
Warning : Shonen-ai
I hope you enjoy!
The teacher glanced every area of the classroom but could not find the teal haired boy. "Kuroko Tetsuya? Kuroko-kun?"
"Excuse me, I am here."
"Eh..? WUAAHH!" The students screamed as they perceived the small teal haired boy standing in front of the class.
"I don't believe it!"
"He's standing in front of the class and I didn't notice!?"
"It's like he's invisible!"
The class chattered noisily but ceased when a scissor flung in the air. They turned their attention to the heterochromatic eyes. "Shall we continue?"
"I am Kuroko Tetsuya, I hope we get along." He bowed respectfully.
"Tetsuya, sit hither." Akashi demanded arrogantly, the boy promptly walked to him and sat beside him.
The teacher was paralyzed and effortless towards their actions. "Uu..um.. V-very well! Please take your geography textbook out and turn to the last page." The students acceded to his instruction. "Kuroko-kun! Why don't you come here and show us where our island is located?"
"Kuroko-kun? Where are you?"
"I am here."
"GAAAH! Errmm." The teacher cleared his throat. "Would you like to show us which island is Japan?" The boy haphazardly pointed on the map, which was incorrect. The students burst out laughing at him. Kuroko tilted his head in perplexity.
"Ahahaha! That's so funny."
"He doesn't know!?"
"Is he stupid? Hahaha!"
"Oh my God!"
Czit
Czit
Cziiit
The scissor sounded, silencing the students. The redhead smirked sadistically. Everyone slowly turned their head to face the redhead, not daring to open their mouth.
"Uh, um. Alright Kuroko-kun, you may return to your seat." The teal haired boy stared at the redhead.
Strange
I should be scared, but why am I feeling secured?
The sun descended emitting dimness in the firmament as the bell chimed. Students left their classes lustily while the redhead and teal haired boy stayed in class tranquilly.
Kuroko's table was scattered with thick books. The boy stared at the messily table in disbelief. Silence filled the atmosphere.
"Tetsuya." Akashi broke the silence.
"Yes?"
"I need your answers."
The boy tilted his head. ".. What answers?"
Please do not ask me regarding those questions
"Where do you actually come from? And how did you encounter such atrocious injuries?"
I'm scared to answer the truth
The teal haired boy lowered his head and murmured noiselessly.
"Tetsuya, I'm waiting."
"I don't remember."
I lied.. I feel fearful
"Is that the truth?" Kuroko swiftly nodded. The redhead stared intently at his trembling lips. He knew he was lying.
I have this agitated feeling, there is something peculiar about Tetsuya. But he seemed desperate whenever I ask. I will not hurt him.
"Tetsuya, come here." Akashi wrapped his arms around the teal haired boy and brought his body closer to him feeling his soft pale skin in his arms.
..What is this feeling? My fear vanished just like that. And I feel warm
So warm..
"Akashi-kun." His eyes shut heedlessly. Akashi caressed his cheeks.
"Tetsuya."
If I am unable to perceive your past by asking, then I will discover inconspicuously.
The shadows again spoke to theor missing shadow in his sleep.
"Kuroko Tetsuya, are you disobeying us? We are merely giving you a chance to return home."
"I do not call that my home. Therefore I will not return."
"Kuroko, do you not realize what you have just said? Do you desire loneliness?"
No..
"There is someone for me."
I'm not sure..
"A human."
"Let us retrospect, shall we?" The shadows' tone raised causing the teal haired boy to quaver with fear.
"Kuroko, listen deliberately. Humans do not accept shadows. No matter how hard you try, they will not accept us."
"I refuse to believe that."
But Akashi ac—
No.. He accepts me only my appearance as a human
I am not a human..
"Have I not told you before? When you are discovered a shadow, they will leave you. They do not care about us. Humans are nasty creatures, aren't they?"
Why..?
"It seems that you are perplexed. Very well, we shall give you time. We know before that time, you would realize how cruel humans are."
I don't want to believe that..
It's hard to believe..
"Ah, let me remind you. Shadows do not have feelings. They cannot find love."
I don't have feelings?
What isfeelings?
What islove?
I'm confused.
"We will be waiting for youranswers, Kuroko."
Kuroko roused from his sleep and found himself in Akashi's bedroom. "I must've fallen asleep." The teal haired boy sighed.
What don't I know?
What arefeelings and love?
Do humans hate about us? Do humans not care about us? I need to reassure..
Because, I don't want to believe in that.
Those questions remain unanswered in my head.
Click
The door handle clicked. The boy turned his attention toward the redhead who has opened the door and now standing before the door. "Tetsuya."
"Akashi-kun."
"How are you feeling?" He asked with his eyes locked to the boy's blank azure eyes.
Confused, distraught
There are so many things I do not know which I have to keep it to myself
"I am feeling.. fine." He averted his gaze as he answered.
The redhead knew he was lying. "Tetsuya. Tell me what happened." He demanded.
"No, nothing happened."
"Tetsuya, do not lie to me."
I kept lying to him.
I'm sorry, I just can't reveal thetruth.
"I'm sorry. Right now, I cannot say."
"Why are you hiding from me?"
"I.. just had nightmares. I do not want to trouble you with trivial things, Akashi-kun."
Again, I covered it with lies
"Tetsuya, it does not matter how insignificant it is to you. If it affects you, it would also affect me." Kuroko could only blink.
..What does that mean?
Akashi sat on the bed the boy was lying on and lugged him to him.
"Now, tell me, Tetsuya. Do not lie to me."
His lips were trembling. "I.. Humans treat me as if I was worthless. I'm afraid that Akashi-kun will leave m—" The redhead drew his index finger to the boy's soft delicate lips to silence him.
"I will not. Mark my words."
The teal haired boy withdrew and smiled. "I believe." Akashi chuckled and embraced him.
Akashi-kun's warmth is again.. radiating in me
"It's already midnight, you should sleep soon."
Midnight?
The redhead watched intently as the teal haired boy's face turned apprehensive. He was murmuring inaudibly but the redhead comprehended his thoughts. "Tetsuya."
"Ah..?" The boy eventually came to his realization.
No.. I have to pretend to deceive Akashi-kun
"It's nothing. Nothing at all." He responded as he clutched onto the blanket. The redhead could not help but grew desperately eager since he had not discovered much about the boy. His mind was filled with vexation.
"Get some rest, Tetsuya." He stood apart from the boy. Kuroko's eyes dilated in surprise as he watched him slamming the door hard.
Why is he.. Angry?
Akashi ensconced on his large red armchair and folded his legs. He shut his eyes in frustration.
Tetsuya, why is it such a puzzle to ascertain you?
You are indeed intriguing.
There is something that has been bothering me by that time.
"Humans treat me as if I was worthless."
Humans? Is it not strange?
It is verily strange.
If he is not lying, no.. he is not lying. I can tell. He spoke in his feeling
I wonder..
Is Tetsuya a human? Or does he come from another dimension? I am aware that this is absurd, but I have no proof that he is a human. With such small body and strength he has, how could he manage to survive from the atrocious injuries.
And his thought along with his expression.. What about midnight?
Tetsuya, I will discover them soon. When that time comes, you need not hide from me any longer.
