Second chapter, any review I've gotten at this point is appreciated, but since I don't know how to I can't reply to any :,u

The next day hadn't seemed to odd to Tatsuya, either. It wasn't as busy as the day before and the staff was different, but that was about it. Well, at least the manager on the second day seemed nicer.

In fact, he kind of knew her, she was the one who interviewed him. Momoi Satsuki, a nice woman with long pink hair she had put up in a bun, always ready with a smile.

When he'd gotten there that day she'd approached with a smile. "Himuro-kun! Ki-chan told me about your first day, sounded pretty successful."

"Momoi-san. I guess you could call it successful…" Tatsuya said giving an awkward laugh and rubbing the back of his head.

"You guess? Mukkun only listens to Akashi-kun and on occasion me! Plus actually getting Midorin to say he appreciated something?" Momoi took a breath. "Midorin isn't one to admit things like that too easily. Then again, Mukkun has been being particularly bratty lately…"

"I see." Tatsuya shifted in place. He knew absolutely nothing about how the shop usually ran. To hear what he'd done was apparently rare was a surprise. How did Murasakibara keep a job like that?

"Anyway, let me introduce you to a few more of your coworkers!" She exclaimed with a smile, turning on her heel and leaving Tatsuya to follow behind. "Dai-chan! Tetsu-kun!"

"Satsuki, stop calling me that already. We aren't little kids anymore." The blue haired man said and Tatsuya frowned. Was he Dai-chan or Tetsu-kun and where was the other one?

momoi rolled her eyes. "This is Aomine Daiki, Himuro-kun. He's kind of lazy so you might have to give him a kick or two."

"Satsuki-"

"Before their arguing gets too bad, I'd like to introduce myself." A shorter man said, making Tatsuya jump back. "I'm Kuroko Tetsuya, nice to meet you."

"Oh, uh, nice to meet you, Kuroko-kun." Tatsuya replied with a nervous smile. How had he not noticed the guy?

"Oh good! Well, from what Midorin said, you should have all the basics down so hopefully today will go smoothly." Momoi chirped upon noticing the other man had introduced himself. "If you need help, ask one of these two… I suggest asking Tetsu-kun, though."

"Thanks for the suggestion." Tatsuya said with a nod.

"I'll leave you to it then!" She turned on her heel, skipping off. Definitely seemed friendlier than that Midorima.

"Alright then...I guess we should just get to work then." Tatsuya mumbled, stepping behind the counter and around Aomine.

"And you're just like Tetsu, all work and no play." Aomine said with a roll of his eyes. "Of course you are. Damn, why can't they ever schedule me with Murasakibara or something?"

"If they did that nothing would ever get done, Aomine-kun." Kuroko replied, stepping behind the counter himself. "Himuro-kun, if you could, please man the cash register."

Tatsuya gave a nod, no point in arguing over who did what since he'd learned the way things worked. Two people making drinks for every one taking orders. Apparently he was that one.

He turned to the forming crowd, smiling at the man in front. He seemed nice enough.

"Sorry for the wait sir, could I take your order?" He asked after gaining his attention.

"Ah, yes well just a caramel mocha please!" The man replied with a smile.

"Alright, and your name?"

"Kiyoshi." His smile was still in place. At least he was pleasant, Tatsuya decided. Pleasant customers were kind of a nice surprise.

He turned to look at Kuroko and Aomine, only to almost trip over Aomine's sleeping form. Apparently most of the crowd in the front and Kuroko didn't care past a glance, though.

"What's the order and for who, Himuro-kun?"

"A caramel mocha for a Kiyoshi…"

Tatsuya stood up, brushing himself off before turning back to the front. Aomine sleeping on the job was going to be troublesome, wasn't it?

"Himuro-kun, I suggest you just call the orders to me from where you are for now." Kuroko said as the black haired man made his way back to the counter. "Aomine-kun can be hard to maneuver around."

Tatsuya gave the light blue haired man a nod before turning back to the counter.

"Hello sir, could I take your order?" He asked, his voice almost dying in his throat when he saw the man.

He was big, not tall like Murasakibara was, but...muscular. Almost to a ridiculous point.

"Large cup of black coffee." He replied, rubbing the back of his head. "Try to hurry it up too, I need to get to the gym."

"I can see what I can do, but first I'll need a name." Tatsuya replied with a forced smile.

"The name's Nebuya." He said with a yawn. "Ah man, I ate too much before coming here..."

Tatsuya said nothing in reply, instead turning to Kuroko. "Large black coffee for a Nebuya, Kuroko-kun."

The blue haired man gave him a nod and Tatsuya turned back to the crowd. It was going to be a long day, wasn't it?

As soon as the last customer filed out, Tatsuya turned with a sigh. At least now all there was was clean up and then he'd be homebound-

With a yell, he once again tripped over a now almost-awake Aomine.

"Hey, watch where you're going!" Aomine snapped, glaring at the black haired man.

"Not my fault you're lying in the middle of the walkway! How about you actually help instead of sleep next time?"

"Why should I? You and Tetsu had it under control." Aomine replied, moving to sit up. "There's never a reason for me to be up."

"You could help make the drinks or man the counter while I make drinks." Tatsuya snapped, standing up and brushing his pants off.

He needed to stop, he needed to keep a cool head. He couldn't blow up, he didn't have a temper like Taiga.

"Look...I should just go clean up the tables. It'd probably be better if we just didn't talk while working together." He said quietly. "Sorry for blowing up like that?"

"Yelling a little? You call that blowing up?" Aomine snorted. "Looks like you're soft, pretty boy… Figuratively and literally."

Tatsuya rolled his eyes. Aomine was just trying to get to him, he should just ignore him… Even if it'd make his job that much harder.
