Story

Far away from Kasamatsu's apartment, Seirin high basketball club fell to full blown panic because they did not find Kuroko anywhere. They thought Kuroko would go back to their school when 'he' could not find them anywhere at Kanagawa so they went back to Tokyo without 'him'. Unfortunately, though they did not find 'him' at their school.

"Damn it! Where the hell is he?" Kagami shouted.

"Do you think Kuroko already at his home?" Koganei asked to no one in particular.

"Dumbass! How the fuck should I know?" Hyuuga went to his clutch mode. "How the hell did we forget to ask his phone number anyway?" Hyuuga went to look at Aida. "Coach what are you doing?"

"I'm calling the school." She answered and putting her index finger in front of her lips telling the members to stay silence.

"Ah hello… This is Aida Riko, one of Seirin high student. My student id number is xxxx"…

"Yes. I want to know about Kuroko Tetsuya's phone number."…

"Eh? You don't have. Oh? The home number is fine too… so the number is xxxxxx. Yes, thank you very much, sir."

"Coach?" Kagami asked.

"I'm going to call his home. I'm pretty sure that if anything happen he'll call his home since he doesn't have our number. So stay put all of you." Aida began pressing the number and put her phone to her ear.

"Hello. Good evening, Ma'am. I am Aida Riko, Kuroko-kun teammate. Has he already arrived at home?"…

"Not yet? Huh? At his friend house at Kanagawa? Kasamtasu-san?"…

"What happened?"…

"I see. Thank you, Ma'am."

Just as Aida snapped her phone shut, the members of Seirin high basketball club swarmed her with their questions. Although the meaning behind the questions was same, asking about their wayward teammate.

"Kuroko is at Kasamatsu-san home at Kanagawa. Apparently, some thugs punched him because they defeated the thugs at basketball game. And the punch re-opened his wound"

"Is he okay, coach?" Kagami asked a bit worried of the situation.

"Yes, he just got a minor concussion." Aida replied. "It's already late, we better go home now. Bye, guys."

Meanwhile when Seirin basketball club felt relieve because they knew that Kuroko was perfectly safe wherever 'he' was, the same could not be said for the captain of Kaijo high, Kasamatsu Yukio. After accidently seeing Kuroko nearly naked, the mentioned captain stayed rooted at his bedroom's door and looked blankly at the wall in front of him. It seemed his brain had malfunctioned.

At the bedroom though, Kuroko felt panic because she was afraid that Kasamatsu would tell Kise or someone else about her true gender. As a result, Kuroko hurried herself to wear Kasamatsu's clothes unfortunately the pants was still bigger to her so it always slipped from her waist. Deciding to discard it, she checked that the clothes although too big for her as well, it certainly could cover both of her top and bottom decently. The top of the shirt exposed her shoulder while the bottom reached her mid thigh.

Opening the door, Kuroko soon found herself fell backward because of a certain someone weight on top of her. For his part, Kasamatsu's brain began working again. Unfortunately, it was too late because he soon lost the place which he leaned on and propelled backward crashing to the unguarded Kuroko and soon found both of them crashing right to the floor. Kasamatsu who was at the top felt himself blushing because of the close distance of their face.

"Sorry!" Kasamatsu got up. "Are you alright, Kuroko?" and offered his hand for the smaller teen.

"I am fine, Kasamatsu-san." Kuroko accepted the hand and Kasamatsu helped her up. "Besides, I am the one who supposedly apologize. I did open the door." She bowed a little.

"I guess we can call it even then." Kasamatsu said, this time tough he looked at the other and widened his eyes at the girl's attire. "What are you wearing?" He asked feeling blood rushed to his cheek again.

"Your shirt." Kuroko answered without an ounce of discomfort at all. "I did want to wear the pants. Unfortunately, it was too big."

"It's the smallest I have." Kasamatsu said frowning a bit.

"Kasamatsu-san, have you tell someone about my gender?" Kuroko asked.

"I haven't." Kasamatsu answered trying to read the girl.

He was good at reading facial expression even the concealed one. That was why he was able to understand Kise who could easily fool many people into believing what he wanted them to believe. Kise's huge success at the modeling industry was the proof of such skill. Right now, Kasamatsu could see that Kuroko felt anxious, relieve, and a bit fear.

"Will you tell someone?" She asked.

"No. But I do want an explanation as to why you pretend to be a boy. Although there is no restriction in gender about playing basketball, there is one reason why many schools had female basketball team." Kasamatsu replied.

"Thank you." Kuroko said exhaling her breath in relieve. "It is not that I want to pretend to be a boy, it is at first just and error at admission when I registered myself at Teikou. Apparently that time they could not find a girl uniform for me so they gave me the boy's instead and promised to get me a female one as soon as it was available."

"…" Kasamatsu looked at the girl facial expression, he could see a twinge of sadness at the ice blue orbs.

"It seemed they forgot about me. At first, I wanted to complain to them but the situation a bit hard because at that time someone noticed me playing basketball at the third string gym and he immediately assumed that I was a boy since Teikou did not have a girl basketball team." She smiled sadly at this and continued in with her story.

"I was happy so I thought it was okay and promised myself to tell him as soon as possible but every time I tried someone interrupted until the regulars noticed me and then as you know I became the sixth phantom player. But then as you know we broke up. I thought that I should stop pretending but…"

"You love the game deeply so you can't give up." Kasamatsu added.

"That too and because I play with the boys for so long that I do not think many females can catch my pass easily thus reducing my usefulness as a player." Kuroko told him. "So, Kasamatsu-san please do not tell anyone about my gender not even Kise-kun." She bowed deeply.

"I don't think it's a good idea to keep silent, especially about your own identity." Kasamatsu replied.

"I understand. I will tell them when I can defeat them and set them back to be the one who love basketball just like before we become the winner of the third consecutive national championship." Kuroko said firmly.

"That's an awfully huge dream but I am glad today you beat us because now that idiot, Kise, won't object practicing again." Kasamatsu smirked. "I won't hold back though when we face each other again in the field. After all I still have a revenge to be fulfilled."

"Thank you very much, Kasamatsu-san." Kuroko smiled.

"Don't mention it. As long as you will tell them the truth I don't mind." He said. "Besides, I think you already manage to snap Kise out of his pedestal."

"I think you are right." Kuroko nodded smiling a bit at her accomplishment.

Seeing Kuroko's smile, Kasamatsu widened his eyes because Kuroko looked so different. She looked much prettier. He couldn't help but said quietly, "You should smile more. It's easier to notice you that way." Then he mumbled the last part, "Not to mention prettier."

"I beg your pardon?" Kuroko looked confusedly at Kasamatsu.

Kasamatsu shook his head blushing a bit at his outburst, "It's nothing."

Ding… Dong… The bell rang.

"Huh?" Kuroko looked at the door.

"Oh, our dinner." Kasamatsu replied.

And then an absolute silence followed. Remembering the incident of seeing Kuroko's nearly naked, both of them blushed like no tomorrow.

"Er… About before I am so sorry." Kasamatsu scratched his head awkwardly while avoiding eye contact with the girl.

"It is fine…" Kuroko replied. "As long as you do not see what you must not."

"…"

"You do not, don't you Kasamatsu-san?"

"O-o-of course not." He stammered.

"You are not convincing enough to me if you stuttered like that Kasamatsu-san." Kuroko replied.

"I swear I don't."

Ding… Dong…

"Excuse me, I am from pizza delivery. Is anybody home?"

"Coming." Kasamatsu yelled and opened the door then paid the man.

Closing the door, he told Kuroko that they would have pizza for the dinner since he could not decide what to buy for both of them so he thought that pizza was good enough which Kuroko actually did not mind at all. After dining, they began cleaning the leftover.

"Oh… Kuroko you can use my bed. I will sleep at the sofa later."

"No. You should use the bed Kasamatsu-san. I can use the sofa instead." Kuroko protested.

"You are still injured Kuroko." He replied. "So you use the bed. And no buts either."

"… Could you consider yourself Kasamatsu-san?" Kuroko relented and they went to sleep. "Sleeping at the couch is uncomfortable." Kasamatsu glared at Kuroko as to say 'You're not going to sway me.'

"Okay. I would use the bed." Kuroko relented. "Good night, Kasamatsu-san."

"Night." He replied.

In the morning after Kuroko's revelation and explanation, Kasamatsu woke up because of the sun shone through the thin curtain at his apartment. Standing up, he felt a bit stiff because of his uncomfortable sleeping position at the sofa so he tried to loosen his muscles when suddenly he heard a crashing noise from his bedroom and without further ado he ran at top speed to his room.

"Kuroko! Are you alright?" He opened the door.

"I think so." She answered but he could see the wound at her forehead bleeding again.

"No, you don't. The wound bleed again." Kasamatsu shook his head. "I will try to re-bandage it again. After that we should go to hospital."

"But, Kasamatsu-san shouldn't you go to school instead?" Kuroko asked standing up but nearly fell down again. Luckily, Kasamatsu managed to catch her in time.

"It seemed you have a light concussion as well." Kasamatsu led her to his bed and began to remove the bandage. "And no. Missing a day won't change anything."

"You must be confident of your grade." Kuroko chuckled a bit.

"Yeah I guess." He answered.

"You should be careful with Kise-kun though. He is not too good at studying." Kuroko said tonelessly.

"Speaking from experience?" Kasamatsu asked while he began bandaging again.

"I suppose so." Kuroko answered and grimaced a bit because she felt her wound hurt.

"Sorry." Kasamatsu said and sighed. "I need to tie it tighter than before since you seem to be an accident prone. Done."

"I am not an accident prone, Kasamatsu-san." Kuroko deadpanned.

"In just a day you receive two hits at your head and in the early morning on second day the wound re-open making it bleed." Kasamatsu replied in a matter of fact tone.

"…"

"…"

"Thank you." Kuroko said and promptly looked down.

"You admit it, don't you?" Kasamatsu asked. Kuroko did not grace that one with an answer. Kasamatsu chuckled at her, "You're welcome. In any case we need to go to the doctor soon though so you better get dress." And he went to his drawer to take a couple of clothes.

"Okay." Kuroko took her bag and went to the bathroom to get change herself.
