A/N: Hey guys, since there were so many people that were looking forward to another part to this, I decided to write another chapter. I was going to write this yesterday (the last day I had for break) but I was super duper sick and barely felt like crawling out of bed. So I did this today instead.
Hope you enjoy it as much as the first part ~
Aomine sat there for a second blinking blankly at his cousin. "That's not funny Kuroko."
"Does it look like I'm joking?"
"…"
It didn't look like he was joking at all. Aomine turned to face Kagami and his mouth dropped open at what he saw. Red, gleaming eyes stared back at him, but that wasn't what surprised him. Instead of regular irises, they were slits, like a cat. And when Kagami grinned at him sheepishly Aomine could see the slightly sharpened canines. Kagami used his shock to his advantage and sidled up to Aomine before kissing him.
He licked into his mouth hotly, pressing his tongue against Aomine's, startling him enough to bring him out of his trance. Aomine was automatically lost in the warmth of Kagami's body and the desire came back hot and fast, pooling in the pit of his stomach. Eyes drooping, he groaned when the redhead sucked on his tongue with just the right amount of pressure. When he fought back with his own appendage and pushed it past Kagami's lips to take control he brushed against the sharp teeth, but it didn't dissuade him from going further. In fact, the slight pain just increased his eagerness.
Aomine's hand went to bring Kagami's face closer but started when he felt a few scales at the back of his neck. He broke the kiss, eyes blown wide with lust and some confusion. "You're the Dragon?"
"Uh, yeah. Is that a problem?" Kagami was looking at him with such hope that Aomine couldn't respond right away. Thankfully something disturbed the awkward silence. A pink haired girl skipped through the doorway. Her intelligent eyes assessed the situation before calmly blinking.
Suddenly she screeched, "OH MY GOD TAIGA IS THIS YOUR BOYFRIEND!?" The girl rushed over and went through some drawers before throwing pants and a black shirt at him. "I've been waiting for this day forever! You're always so lonely and never fail to protect me from those terrible knights, I'm so happy for you Taiga!"
Kagami sighed while Aomine gaped at the girl, "Whose this now?" He quickly dressed and Kuroko moved to let Aomine have his pants and shirt also.
"Aomine-kun, this is Princess Momoi Satsuki." The girl jumped at the sound of Kuroko and her eyes widened when she took in the small blue-haired mage.
"He's so cute~!" Then the princess preceded to glomp him, pressing him tightly against her chest.
"Wait a fucking moment!" Aomine scowled, pointing at Kagami, "If you're the Dragon," then pointed at the girl still hugging Kuroko, "And that's the Princess. Then how the fuck do you know each other?! And why was she calling you Taiga?" His heart clenched at the thought of someone being so informal with Kagami, and he wasn't sure how he felt about that.
A throat cleared next to him brought his attention back to Kagami, "Whom do you think cooks for her and takes care of the place? And this is a job, it's not like I'm actually keeping her for myself."
"Okay, now I'm just more confused. Job? I thought dragon's just stole princesses and took over abandoned castles? Like, isn't that their thing or whatever?" Aomine gestured his hands randomly.
Kagami's eyebrow twitched, "Where'd you get that from, a fairytale story? This is real life, you Aho. Dragon's are intelligent creatures, and we have three forms so most don't even realize that we live among humans, though we're still a rare species. And I took this job when I was able to leave my den two years ago. It's very simple, I look after Satsuki, and let through those I think are worthy, or that defeat me in combat."
Growling he glared at Kagami, "So is this what you do? Take random knights to your bed, then kill them?" He didn't like the thought of Kagami having sex with other people, his hands gripped tightly at the sheets.
Kagami stuttered, "N-NO!" Then a blush crossed his face, and he played with his hands on his laps, "I've never done that before. It was just you." As if realizing how demure he was acting his head snapped up and he said, "And you're the one that seduced me you idiot!"
"It's not my fault! You were being fucking adorable and shit," he snapped back, baring his teeth in a sneer.
Momoi seemed to have let go of Kuroko (who was still blue in the face from lack of oxygen, but Aomine could see he didn't mind) and she smiled brightly at them. "Taiga, what's your boyfriends name?"
They both stopped bickering to face the beaming girl, "This is Aomine Daiki. And he's… not my boyfriend." Aomine shot Kagami a look at the frown on his face.
"Boo! Don't give me that, you wouldn't just sleep with someone you didn't like." At Kagami's stare she sighed resignedly, "but I guess I can hook you up with my cousin! He's—,"
"No, he's mine." Aomine snapped and drew Kagami against his now clothed chest. He could still feel the deep warmth of the redhead, and he found he rather liked it. It was strange, he had just slept with Kagami, but it didn't sate his desire for him at all. Instead, it had only increased it, and just from Kagami being next to him his pulse picked up slightly.
Momoi's mouth slid up into a triumphant grin and Aomine had the notion that she had done that on purpose to rile him up. "Well, it's nice to meet you Dai-chan!"
"Dai-chan?" Aomine asked bewildered.
"Now that you're Kagami's boyfriend you're part of our little family! So that means first name basis. Right Tetsu-kun?"
Kuroko had been silently observing all that had been happening, his impassive face cracking a bit when he saw that Aomine seemed to be serious about what he had suddenly claimed. "Of course Momoi-san." She pouted at that.
While Momoi was trying to convince Kuroko to use her first name Kagami turned to look at Aomine over his shoulder. His eyes were questioning, "Don't I get a say in this?"
Smirking, Aomine pulled him closer, "No." Then he yawned deeply, still tired from their previous exercise. He gently touched the slight scales on the base of his neck that glittered red in the torchlight. Kagami shivered and his eyes fluttered shut at the feeling. Aomine kept caressing it softly with his thumb, slowly rubbing them, wonder in his eyes. They were silky smooth, but still hard as diamonds.
When the redhead was practically mush in his hands from the touches Aomine couldn't help the surge of masculine pride at the sight. He knew that Kagami's legs and thighs still ached from the way he was leaning on him, and damn if that didn't make him feel good. "Mmm… right there," Kagami breathed out.
"Ahem," a voice broke them out of their little bubble. "If you guys are done, I just wanted to let you know Taiga that I'll be back in the tower with Tetsu-kun~!"
A red eye cracked open, seeing Momoi practically dragging Kuroko out the door. "Mhm. Have fun. I'll make dinner in a while."
"Great! Same to you two! Remember to keep it down, the castle halls echo and you weren't exactly discreet last time." She 'tsked' and waved her finger at him. "I know this is your room, but you think you'd remember to put up the muffling runes."
Kagami blushed. She had heard them? "This is the first time this happened, dammit!" But Momoi had already left leaving him to shout at the closed door.
"Hmm." Kagami heard Aomine hum from behind him and shuffled so he was sitting next to him now. He felt kind of awkward now that Momoi wasn't there to buffer the silence with her random, bubbly talk. She always knew what to say.
"What?" Shit, Kagami thought, he totally sounded angry. Why does everything out of his mouth either come out angry or monotone?
Though Aomine didn't even notice, "This is your room?" He was glancing around with barely concealed interest. "I thought the runes were why it was so furnished, but I guess that makes sense."
"Ahh, they were already here when I arrived. I believe Satsuki's father had to do with it." He shrugged, "this is nothing. You should see her tower, he sure didn't spare any expense making sure she would be comfortable here. She always tells me it's been more like a home here than where she used to live. I don't know why, I cant see how being cooped up in a ruined castle could feel like home." Kagami turned and gave Aomine a dazzling smile.
Aomine's eyes widened, the stupid, innocent grin was doing things to him that he'd never felt. He figured out why Momoi thought of this as home, anyone would if they saw that angelic smile. Was there even such a thing as an angelic dragon? If there were, it'd be the redhead next to him. He really needed to stop thinking about that, because all that came to mind was a very domestic image of Kagami and him; Kagami cooking for him while he lounged around bothering him before sneaking a bite; Kagami and him relaxing in bed in the afternoon, too lazy to get up and just happy to be by each oth— Shit, change the topic.
"So you cook? Doesn't the girl usually do that?" There was a hint of teasing in the sentence; he was hoping that Kagami would fall back into the easy, fighting banter they had before. Yet Kagami didn't pick up on the tone in his voice at all, the baka.
When Kagami pursed his lips all Aomine could think was, fuck that didn't help at all! He's cuter now than before! "Uh, if you tasted Satsuki's cooking you'd understand why." He shivered, and whispered as if Momoi could hear every word he was speaking, "It's practically alive after she's done with it, squirming and moving on your plate."
He blanched, was it really that bad? "But… isn't it dead before she starts preparing it?"
The redhead nodded vigorously, "My theory is that it's so scared even in death that it comes back alive just to try and run away. And most of them are battle worn animals that I kill in the forest."
"Fuck… she a damn necromancer or something?" Pictures of a deviously smiling Momoi raising food from the dead were pouring into his head.
Kagami laughed, the deep sound filling the room, making Aomine's cheeks heat up at the sight. When he stopped Kagami seemed alert at something.
"What is it?"
"Someone's approaching the castle."
Aomine was surprised. "Really? Isn't it already dark out?"
Nodding he explained, "Uh huh, but there are some really stupid knights that think the dark will help them defeat me. Honestly it's the other way around. I usually get challenged three or more times a week, although it's rare to have more than one in a day."
"Haa? Beat a dragon in the dark? What an idiot."
Kagami sweat dropped, "Yeah, well you thought dragons stole princesses for fun."
Aomine's blush came back full force, "S-shut up! There's not much information on dragons okay!"
"Aww, you're so cute, is Sir Aomine getting flustered?" Kagami teased him, loving the redness on the usually suave, confident knight. Aomine shoved him and got up from the bed, showing him his back as he strapped on his armor.
"Aren't you going to face him?" He asked when he finished with his chest plate.
"Yeah, yeah." But he still hadn't moved from lying back on the bed. Kagami saw something flash in the corner of his eye and barely had time to lift his hand up to catch his sword. "What the hell? AHO! You could have impaled me?!"
Aomine smirked, "Already did that." Chuckling, he dodged all the pillows that were sent his way in a flurry.
"Let's just go." Although he was furious at the crude sentence (more like extremely embarrassed), when Aomine let loose a burst of laughter he couldn't help but smile as they left the room.
As Aomine stood in the shadows, concealed by Kagami's illusion magic, his heart beat a crazy tempo. He could feel it thumping against his chest; making his metal armor beat along with it. Just watching Kagami fighting with the knight before him was exhilarating. Aomine could feel the heat from the fire that breathed from his mouth and the wind from his impressive wingspan. It was beautiful.
Those red eyes shined so bright, with happiness and aggressive competition that it made Aomine wish he were fighting against him. His hands itched as they gripped his sword. He thought he would never have this feeling ever again, this feeling of desire to test out his strength against another's, to fight until both were sweating and gasping, but smiling from having such a good opponent.
And just with the sight of Kagami defeating the knight, turning back to his half-humanoid half-dragon state as he looked at where Aomine now stood, and grinning stupidly, he fell in love. He didn't know how he knew, but when his heart skipped as Kagami leaned in to kiss him lightly, it was obvious it could only be that.
Kagami went to break the kiss, but Aomine tipped his head further, and caressed the scales at the back of his neck. The air around them crackled with a force that made Aomine tug Kagami against him, drawing further into that warm mouth. He now knew where that slightly burnt taste came from, and moaned into him.
They were both breathing hard when they separated, their pupils dilated with want. "Enjoy the show that much?" Kagami smirked.
"Haa?" He yawned, "Could barely keep my eyes open." The redhead acted just as he thought, steam could practically be seen coming from his ears.
"Oh yeah?! Like you could do any better?"
"Tch. Easily."
"Hmph," Kagami scowled, but slowly a smile came to his face. Aomine narrowed his eyes at the twinkle in his eyes. He came closer to the bluenette before purring in his ear, "If you handle it with the same lack of skill you do with your other sword, I guess I'll end up disappointed again."
Gaping Aomine felt a spike of lust and anger go through him, his blue eyes turned dark and he shut his mouth quickly, "Ohhh? Well my lack of skill had you writhing under me, not even able to shout my name." This feeling of blood rushing through his veins was exactly what he loved, what he wanted. Kagami seemed to be the only person who could challenge him, in the bedroom and outside of it.
"Pft." Kagami let out a laugh, smirk still apparent on his face. "You have such a big ego that I couldn't help faking it. Kami knows what would happen to my poor Dai-chan if you didn't get your daily dose of an ego boost," he mocked playfully.
Before Aomine could retort there was a slam of the door closing. They looked up to see Momoi pouting at them. "Taiga! I'm so happy you're all right. I was worried since you usually tell me right after you defeat someone."
"Ahh, sorry Satsuki. I was kind of busy."
Momoi glared at him, "that's no excuse! What if they had beaten you and I had no way of knowing? How would I deal with that guilt for the rest of my life?! Huh?" At each end of the sentence she poked Kagami's chest as if to emphasize her point.
"I said I was sorry!" When she started sniffling he started panicking, "Shit, don't cry! Please don't cry!" She burst into tears at the thought of her poor Kagamin dying alone somewhere without her able to help him.
"Bakagami, you don't even know how to console a woman."
"Oi! I'd like to see you better."
Aomine scowled, but his pride made him try. He cleared his throat, moving closer to the hysterical girl, awkwardly patting her shoulder. "There, there. If Kagami lost, you'd be too busy with your wedding preparations to wonder where his body was." Momoi just started crying harder.
Kagami slapped the back of his head and dragged him away before he could let loose another idiotic line, "You AHO! That's the opposite of consoling! Kami, have you ever even talked to a woman before?"
The bluenette paused and tapped his chin, actually thinking hard on the question. "Well, most of the conversations go something like 'I want to fuck you' then she'll giggle and say something like 'You're so blunt' or if she was a forward type of girl 'Your room or mine?'. I leave the consoling up to Kuroko when I kick them out."
"Wow… that's fucked up."
"Yeah, well they're the ones that come onto me then act like they're married to me the next day! And they only have sex with me because I'm rich, and a prince, plus amazingly good looking of course."
Sighing Kagami pushed his fingers through his hair, and mumbled so quietly that Aomine couldn't hear him, "And I like this idiot?" When a particularly loud cry came from Momoi he turned back to the situation at hand. "Come on Satsuki, you know no one's going to beat me."
Aomine couldn't help tacking on suggestively, "Although if were being truthful here, I did beat you."
Smack!
Kagami rubbed Momoi's back soothingly as Aomine wheezed on the ground from the punch to his stomach. "I know you idiot! But sometimes you forget that I worry about you! Do you not care about me?" Her crying was slowly coming to a close.
A shadow spoke up next to her, "I don't think that's the case Momoi-san. Kagami-kun seems to care very much for you." Kagami jumped, but Momoi seemed to have been too tired from crying to do be surprised.
Momoi hiccuped, "Yeah? How can you tell?"
Kuroko's blue eyes gleamed in the darkness; they seemed softer than usual as he looked upon the beautiful princess, "The way that he holds you carefully in his hands, so as not to crush you. Or that he cooks for you and doesn't get mad when you call him an idiot, like he does with Aomine-kun. And the gentle tone he uses when he speaks to you, I'd say those are some very obvious reasons that he cares." Momoi brightens up and her teary eyes look back at Kagami.
"Aw! I love you Taiga!" She hugged him tightly around the waist.
"Tch…" He looked to the side and said lowly, "Love you too Satsuki."
Aomine cleared his throat, trying to break this whole love parade and bring Kagami's attention back to more important things, like him. "I'm hungry. Are we going to eat any day now?"
His insides twisted in glee as those red orbs pierced him, "Don't be so impatient Ahomine." Kagami turned to see Kuroko handing Momoi a cloth to wipe her tears. But from the look on her face it could have been a damn expensive jewel for how happy she seemed.
"Oh Tetsu-kun thank you! I'll treasure this forever!"
"Just don't use it to wipe your snot or else it wont last forever," Aomine said bluntly, his lack of reading the mood was astounding.
Momoi grasped at his ear and tugged, making the man yelp and she pulled him down to her level. "Don't you dare ruin this for me!"
"Ouch! Okay okay! I'm sorry—just, Kami woman! Let go of my ear before you rip it off!"
She snickered and let go of it, wrapping her arms through Kuroko's. "Taiga, we should eat, it's already past the usual time."
Kagami nodded, "Yeah, I can whip something up quick."
They were trailing after the pink haired princess and the blue haired mage when Kagami felt something brush his fingers. Blinking he looked away, shifting so his own touched Aomine's. A smile slid onto his face as Aomine slipped his fingers through Kagami's. When Kagami glanced at him he couldn't stop the laughter that bubbled up at the sight of Aomine still rubbing at his ear, pouting.
"Want me to kiss it better?" He chuckled, squeezing the hand in his.
Aomine's blue eyes focused on his lips, "Hmmm. I have something better that I'd like you to kiss."
Kagami hissed, "Can you stop with the damn innuendos! Satsuki and Kuroko can probably hear you!"
"Haa? Why should I care about that?"
"You seriously have no shame," he sighed. "Why do you have to say that stuff anyways?"
Aomine stared at him heat evident in his gaze, "Because…"
"Because?"
"Because I want everyone to know that you're mine, and they cant touch you." Kagami opened his mouth to retort, trying to be angry, but the admission from Aomine only made his heart speed up.
The redhead swallowed, "…Oh…" He coughed and was happy that they had arrived at the kitchen. "Come on."
They placed their big pieces of armor and swords at the door at Kagami's request. All of them except Kagami sat around the table after he lit the fire in the hearth. It provided warmth for them and also allowed him to cook delicious meals. The kitchen was also well furnished, probably so that the princess could get decent food.
Aomine watched as the red-haired dragon flitted around the kitchen, oblivious to the blue eyes that were etching the scene into his mind. The apron that Kagami had put on was not helping calm his libido. Kagami was gripping the knife in his hand expertly, easily grasping it with his long, slim fingers. Eyes darkened, and Aomine couldn't stop from wanting to see those fingers wrapped around his— a swift punch to his abdomen broke him out of his thoughts. "OW! What the fuck Tetsu?!"
"Stop thinking such dirty thoughts in the presence of a lady."
"Tetsu-kun~!" Momoi had stars in her eyes as Kuroko smiled at her slightly.
He just scoffed at the sight, murmuring under his breath, "The way she was tugging my ear earlier shows she's no lady." Kuroko's glare promised another jab so he rolled his eyes and gave a half-hearted apology. "Sorry that your 'pure' mind can't handle it."
Kuroko sighed, "You should be happy Momoi, I think that's the best he can do."
"Shut up Tetsu!"
Momoi giggled, "It's alright. I know my Taiga is a sight to see when he's in the kitchen."
Growling, he said, "your Taiga?"
"Oops." She laughed, "I mean your Taiga. Don't look at me like that Dai-chan. I have Tetsu-kun!"
"Huh?" He looked down at Tetsu to confirm this, but Kuroko's blank face gave away nothing. "Whatever." It wasn't worth the trouble of trying to figure out.
"So what are you going to do after this Dai-chan? I mean, Taiga's still protecting me."
Aomine paused at that, he hadn't really thought about it. "Uh…"
Kuroko broke in, "Yes, Aomine-kun. What will you do? You still need to either try and fight Kagami, or find a spouse."
Kagami's voice interrupted, "Dinner's done!" He set some stuff up on the table, and got utensils that they could use before setting the plates in front of them. "Eat up!"
"Itadakimasu!" They said in synch.
Aomine was looking at the food skeptically; usually he didn't eat others' food because he had only bad experiences' in the past. He suppressed a shudder at the thought of Riko's cooking. It seemed edible though, and from the groans of appreciation that Kuroko and Momoi were emitting it couldn't be that bad. Kagami watched amused as Aomine slowly picked up some food and placed it in his mouth. His eyes automatically widened, a blush coming to his cheeks and he looked almost reverently at Kagami.
"Marry me."
Kagami instantly spit out his food. "W-what?!"
A/N: ...Shit… I did it again. I meant to totally just end this as a sequel, but these two idiots just kept going and before I knew it I was ending it on a cliffhanger again… Sorry…
I know I'm going to end up continuing this, but it probably wont be a long story (I think).
Anyways, hope you enjoyed! Tell me whatcha think~
Reviews are love :3
