Chapter 3: Ghosts

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the story plot!

Kagami went and ate with Momoi after helping her shop one weekend and they tagged a post on Facebook and took a picture together. Both grinning cutely and innocently. They had grown fond of each other like siblings so he spent time with her time to time. Spoiling her like a big brother would. After they were on the bus they started getting calls from Aomine wildly.

"Hello," Kagami cheered.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN THAT TOWN?!"

"Eating food?"

"THAT IS MURDER CITY!"

"Oh…Does this mean I can't eat the….."

"YES, IT MEANS YOU CAN'T EAT THERE ANYMORE! THAT'S MURDER FOOD YOU ATE!"

"Aomine."

"What?"

"Murder food is delicious."

"I WILL KICK YOUR ASS WHEN YOU GET BACK!"

"NAH UH MOMOI-CHAN WON'T LET YOU AOMINE," he screamed cutely.

"I'LL KICK HER BUTT TOO!"

"I'LL TELL AKASHI," he cried.

"…"

"HA," he cheered knowing he won.

They got off at their stop later and saw Aomine with Akashi and Kuroko. He ran smiling cutely and hugged Akashi. Akashi hugged him back then pushed him away looking serious then scolded him wildly about going to dangerous cities making him pout cutely the whole time and looked sulky. Momoi hugging him squealing about his cuteness the whole time.

"Now promise Tetsu-nii and Sei-nii you won't do it again," Kuroko chided.

"I won't do it again. I promise onii-chans. I'm sorry," he pouted.

"When the hell were you two his older brothers?"

"Since just now," Kuroko said jabbing Aomine.

"OW! WHAT DID I DO?!"

"You doubted us. Now shut up," Kuroko demanded.

"I had an older brother in America once. It's like sometimes I can still hear his nagging. Taiga don't go to dangerous cities or you'll die," Kagami piped up beaming cutely.

"STOP TALKING LIKE I'M NOT HERE," Himuro erupted making him laugh as the other four roared with laughter.

"Kagamine don't tease him like that," Momoi laughed.

"But it's fun," he cheered.

"I'll show you fun," Himuro said fondly and tickled him until he apologized for what he did.

Akashi decided to take Momoi and Kuroko home. Himuro went home himself and left Aomine and Kagami alone.

"Well see you later," Kagami cheered walking away.

"No wait. Hold on. I'll walk you home," Aomine sighed.

"No, it's fine," Kagami smiled.

"But you never know what could happen in the night," Aomine insisted walking by him.

"DON'T SAY THAT! GHOSTS SCARE ME," he cried grabbing his arm tightly and peering at him with fear filled eyes.

"The night is kind of chilly. Perfect time for ghosts," Aomine deadpanned to scare him more for being oblivious that living people were the threat.

"WWWAAAHHH STOP IT," he cried hiding his face into his shoulder.

"They always attack when someone is wandering the streets alone. But since you're brave and you can walk yourself home I'll see you later," he said shaking him off his arm.

"I TAKE IT BACK! WALK ME HOME! WALK ME HOME," he wailed clinging to him.

"If you insist," he shrugged walking in the direction of Kagami's apartment with the other gripping the back of his shirt peering around nervously the whole way.

"Thank you for walking me home," he said sulkily after a couple of minutes into their walk.

"No problem," Aomine smiled amused.

"So, a ghost won't attack us," he questioned cautiously.

"That's right. They only attack people who are alone," Aomine shrugged. "So that means no more wandering to the courts at night alone or a ghost will get you," he said in a creepy voice.

Kagami whined hiding his face between his shoulders making him chuckle amused.

"How is someone as big and buff as you scared so easily," he teased.

"Just because I'm big and buff doesn't automatically mean I'm fearless. You're bigger and you have fears," he pouted.

"Which are," he asked.

"Um…..well I never heard them but I know you have them," he scowled.

"Says who? Maybe I'm fearless and you're just a big scardy cat," he teased.

"I am not! Shut up," he protested.

"Is that how you talk to someone that's keeping you safe," he smirked.

"I don't need you to! I can keep myself safe!"

"Then let go of my shirt," Aomine grinned peering back.

Kagami hesitated then let go and walked beside him instead.

"See," he scowled.

"Yes yes you're very brave," Aomine waved him off making him look smug. "WHAT IS THAT," he roared suddenly pointing.

Kagami screamed cutely hiding behind him. Aomine roared with laughter. Kagami shoved him away angrily.

"IT'S NOT FUNNY," he screamed storming ahead. "I'M SCARED AND ALL YOU'RE DOING IS MAKING FUN OF ME!"

"I'm not making fun," he laughed catching his wrist and pulling him back. "I'm sorry. I won't do it again. I'm not trying to make fun. Your reactions are just so cute to me I can't stop myself sometimes," he said hugging him.

"Cute," Kagami blinked then blushed. "Aho! I'm not cute! Whatever just take me home," he fumbled as his blush deepened.

"Alright," he shrugged and lead him along again.

When they got to his apartment Kagami peered off blushing again.

"Thanks," he mumbled.

"You're welcome. See you later Bakagami," he cheered walking away.

"AHOMINE," he cried after him and shut the door.

'Cute huh,' he thought as he went to his bedroom. 'Maybe this means…..he likes me back," he pondered as he got ready for bed.
