Kasamatsu and Kuroko look at each other. They had never really been on different teams. Besides that, Kasamatsu was the only person they both knew that could catch Kuroko's passes. Kasamatsu was starting to tip toe towards Kuroko, but he could feel the eyes of Kise grinding into his back. The poor boy flinched when Kise touched his shoulder. Kise looked at Kagami. "Lets make a bet! the winning team can make the loosing team do what ever they want! and both people can ask the others a separate thing." Kasamatsu didn't like where this was going. Then, they started to play.

Kasamatsu and Kuroko stood still, near each other watching the other two. Then, Kuroko got the ball. He tried to pass it to Kagami, but he didn't catch it."What the fuck was that?" Kagami said. "No one can catch that!" He whined.

"But Kagami-kun, Yukio-san can." Kuroko passed the ball to Kasamatsu, and he ran to Kuroko's hoop, to jump and dunk.

"What? I bet I can jump higher, and catch Kuroko's pass!" Kagami said. Kasamatsu sighed. Kise just stood there, amazed.

"That was so cool! Kuroko, pass to me!" Kise said. As he was told, Kuroko passed to Kise. To Kasamatsu's enjoyment, the ball made a loud, hard smack! against Kise's head. It was rude to laugh at a alpha, so he had to hold it in. He looked away from Kise, looking at Kuroko. Both were trying not to disrespect kise, but a loud laugh broke the silence.

"Hahaha! you dumb ass!"Kagami laughed. Kise looked at Kasamatsu with a bloody nose, then soon got some tissues out and plugged his nose. Soon after that even, the game went on. After about three more passes, Kagami could catch Kuroko's passes.

It was soon getting late, Kise and Kagami had to stop. The game had ended in a tie, so everyone had the punishment. After the game, they sat in their teams on benches facing each other. Kise was very tired, and leaned on Kasamatsu. Kasamatsu was in pain. The bigger man was going to break his back.


Kagami: he forces Kasamatsu to a jumping competition. Kasamatsu won by about 2 inches. It comes from being a gazelle. Kise has to do all of Kagami's chores at home.

Kuroko: Kasamatsu has to cook tonight, Kise was forced stop leaning on Kasamatsu. Kasamatsu made a mental note to thank Kuroko later.

Kasamatsu: Kagami had to clean Kise up, and Kuroko had to do his laundry.

Kise, he took it over the top. Kise: Kagami was forced to do Kise's homework, and Kuroko was forced to hand over Kasamatsu's phone number.


Kasamatsu looks at Kise with blank eyes. 'Why are you like this' Kasamatsu thinks to himself. As Kagami and Kise walk away, Kise shouts,"call you later, Yukio-san!" Oh man. Kasamatsu just wants to run and kick him so hard, but he cant because he's to busy dying. Only Kuroko calls him that. On the way home, Kasamatsu thanks Kuroko for before. They talk like normal, and the day goes like nothing happened, except for the tasks given to them, and the call from Kise.

Everyday after that, they always met Kagami and Kise at the park. About 5 weeks have passed, and spring had passed in a blur. Over time, they had all gotten closer. The only problem was that Kise was getting to attached to Kasamatsu. He would be walking home, to see that Kise was following him. During school hours, Kise would call the poor gazelle. Not knowing what to do, Kasamatsu hit Kise. "Kasamatsu-san, I like you." Kise says. 'Like... like like? Or friendly like?' Kasamatsu thinks. He takes it as the 'friendly like' and just smiles. Or forces a smile. "But Kaaasamattsuuu-sann, I like you, show a different expression!" Kise says. Kasamatsu looks over at Kise, a blank face. Then, a frown appears on his face, as he walks away. 'He doesn't like me like that. he could never like me like that.' Kasamatsu thinks, walking away. Kuroko jogs, catching up with Kasamatsu.

"Yukio-san, What's wrong?" The blue haired boy asks.

"everything Tetsuya. Uhh i just wanted to be noormal~" Kasamatsu says, draping his arms onto Kuroko's shoulders. Kuroko is now dragging Kasamatsu.

"Yukio-san. We're almost home."

"Yea yea. I got it" He lets go of Kuroko, dragging his feet along his sidewalk, and into his house. He lays on his bed, thinking about what had happened. Kise cant like him, not yet. It has only been 5 weeks. It should take longer. Love at first sight isn't real. He skips dinner, and falls asleep.

Because spring has ended and they are slowly making their way through summer, Kasamatsu thinks about his winter activities. He normally ice skates so he keeps active and gains balance. He does hokey and figure skating to relieve stress and for exercise. He didn't feel like facing Kise, so he went skating. Putting on headphones, he skated across the ice. First the basics of hokey, they very fluent movement. he was getting ready for figure skating. he does different moves to practice balance. Kuroko watches, but soon leaves for some warm air. On his way out, he bumps into Kise and Kagami, coming from school. Kise sees Kuroko, and tells Kagami to follow him. As they follow Kuroko, they soon entered the skating rink. Cold air hit their faces as they rented out thick winter wear. Entering the rink, they could see Kasamatsu and Kuroko on the ice. Not many people were around because it was summer. Kuroko soon came off the ice, and walked towards them."What are you guys doing here?" Kuroko asks.

"We were passing by, when we saw this place." Kise answers. Kuroko just walks past them, asking the owners if they can play their music aloud on the rink. He agrees, as there aren't many people. Kasamatsu had taken his jacket off, and was now in a navy blue and white long sleeve with the arms rolled up. Different soundtracks from Yuri on ice! came on, along with some other songs. Kasamatsu's favorite song had to be either the YOI Soundtrack piece, or the YOI eros. Playing it along, he glides across the ice, hitting each jump and step sequence. Soon, Kuroko added new songs to the list and Kasamatsu's dance turned into improve. Then, Kuroko got back on the ice and they did a partner dance, along with a duet. Kasmatsu sat out for a bit while Kuroko skated. He was re-listening to the new songs, and started to choreograph. With headphones in, he couldn't hear Kise creeping up on him. Kise stole the notes, and looked at them. "very nice, and why didn't you ever tell me that you skated!?" Kise asked. Kasamatsu just shrugged and tried to reach for the notes. With skates on, he tried to jump, but fell instead. Kasamatsu braced for impact, but it never came. Instead, his chest was greeted with warmth. Kasamatsu opened his eyes, to see Kise staring at him. Kasamatsu pushed Kise away, and stole the notes back. He soon put the YOI Allegro appassionato on. One of the most difficult dances he's made. Kuroko soon realizes what the music is, and gets off the ice. By now, the other people around have sat out, watching the experienced skaters. Missing the second to last jump, Kasamatsu puts more effort the second time. Anger build up, as he starts to mess up more and more.

Drenched in sweat by the time they end, Kasamatsu takes his blades off to wash his face. Kise follows him. "That was very beautiful, how'd you learn to skate like that?" Kise asked.

"My parents. My real parents taught me. They told me, they had me so I could redeem the family on skates..." A silence fell.

"What do you mean by real parents? Don't you live with them now?" It stayed quiet, the only noise was the pants of Kasamatsu.

"Why should I tell you?" Kasamatsu asked.

"Because I like you, and I want to help you." Kise responded. Something inside of Kasamatsu sparked and cracked.

"They... They trained me."He started." And they tried and tried. But I couldn't skate like how they wanted me to. I couldn't get past their triple jump. It got to the point where, they hated me. They couldn't look at me. So I practiced, and practiced, and I finally landed one after three months. They put me into a tournament. "Kasamatsu was breaking. Tears flooded his right eye."I failed the jump, and the step sequence. They were yelling on the way back home. And bam. A car hit us from the side. My mother took all the impact, while my father had a neck stroke after three days in the hospital." Sobbing, Kasamatsu looked up."So, That explains your questions, right? I can see them on your face. Like, Why don't I just ice skate, or why don't I just coach? Because I cant. I don't want to turn into my parents. So I chose basketball, a new sport." Kasamatsu had large, ugly tears falling from his right eye. Nothing shed from his left. Kise looked at the smaller man, taking his right cheek in his hand, rubbing the tears away.

'What happened to your other eye?" Kise asked, touching their foreheads.

"it was damaged in the impact, I had to get a fake one. But it's never been the same. Nothing ever comes from that eye." Kasamatsu cried. Kise pulled hi in, taking him into his arms. Kasamatsu had never felt this feeling before. This warmth inside of him. Kise let go, to grab his face. Starring at Kasamatsu, he slowly inched forward, leaning into a kiss. Kasamatsu soon melts into the kiss, but soon realized what he had just done. He pushes Kise away, and runs out the bathroom.
