Uhm hi, it's been a while since I wrote anything. This is just a short little fluff piece.


KagaKuro: Oneshot


Kagami Taiga let out a mighty yawn as he switched off the headlights and turned off the engine. Stretching his neck to release the tightness of a 2 hour drive, he looked to his left; Kagami Tetsuna was quietly sleeping with her head resting against the window, all but dead to the waking world. Their 3 year old son didn't fare any better; Kagami Taichi was also asleep in his booster seat. Taiga smiled at the little line of drool dripping from his son's mouth. He too also used to sleep like a log after a day at the beach.

Unfastening his seatbelt, he leant over to his wife of 4 years.

"Tetsuna." She stirred at the whisper of her name, frowning as she reluctantly opened her eyes before quickly squeezing them shut once more.

"Mmm…" Tetsuna brought up a hand to stifle a yawn before looking behind her to see their sleeping son, whispering, "What time is it?"

"A little over ten," Taiga gave Tetsuna's thigh a prompting pat. "Come on, you get the stuff, I'll take the little guy to his room.

Tetsuna gave her husband a perfunctory nod before getting out of the car, inwardly wishing that they hadn't chosen a beach so far away to spend their Saturday at. She grabbed their bags, the cooler, and a bucket containing several live crabs and headed into their suburban house, just managing to hear Taiga complain about their son's drool on his shoulder before she went out of earshot.


While Taiga brought Taichi upstairs, Kuroko was in the kitchen, peering into the bucket, staring at the six palm-sized crabs she and Taichi had caught that day creeping at the bottom.

"Tetsuna…" She heard Taiga call. "Tetsuna, where are you?"

"I'm right here."

"Gaah!" His right hand flew to his chest, fingers out in a fan against the breastbone. "Tetsuna," Taiga began upon regaining his composure. "You're like a ninja".

Tetsuna gave her husband a flat look through half-lidded eyes. "Would you like me to wear a bell?"

"You would do that for me?" He said, astonished.

Tetsuna responded with a moment of silence, before turning away to face the sink again.

"Aw no, don't get mad at me now," Taiga pleaded lazily as he hugged Tetsuna from behind, wrapping his muscled arms around his wife's petite waist. "Come on, let's go to bed, I'm so tired I could pass out."

"I'm leaving you on the floor if you do."

Taiga smiled, "You would."

"What should we do with the crabs?"

"Just leave them in the sink and come to bed," Taiga tugged at Tetsuna's waist, urging her.

"What if they crawl out?"

"Stop worrying so much," Taiga protested with a sigh as he took the bucket and unceremoniously dumped its contents into the kitchen sink before dragging Tetsuna to bed with him.


"'Stop worrying so much' he says…" Kagami Tetsuna muttered under her breath as she stood in front of the kitchen sink that morning.

Five crabs in the sink.

There was a loose crab in the house…


A few minutes later, Taiga came down the stairs to find Tetsuna on all fours with the lower half of her body sticking out from under the dining table.

"Hey, not that I don't appreciate the view, but are you looking for something down there?"

"Crab."

"What?!" He walked over and squat down next to Tetsuna.

"Crab," Tetsuna repeated with a sigh of irritation. "We're one crab short."

"It climbed out of the sink?!" Taiga let out a bark of laughter. "No way hahaha…"

"What's so funny daddy?!" Taichi joined the conversation, running down the stairs toward his parents.

"It's nothing Taichi, your daddy's just being a bakagami," Tetsuna straightened and gave her son a gentle pat on the back of his head. "Listen, Taichi. You know the little crabs we caught yesterday at the beach? If you see one somewhere in the house, come tell mummy and daddy okay?"

"Huh? Why?" The pyjama-cladded 3-year-old asked.

"Your mummy lost one of them," Taiga grinned.

"It was your 'bright' idea to leave-,"

"HERE CRABBY CRABBYYYY!" Taichi started shouting repeatedly while running all over the living room.

"Say honey," Taiga began. "Crabs don't have ears right?"

"Hmm, I don't know," She admitted. "Why don't you pull up a Wikipedia page on crabs?"


Aomine Daiki, Aomine Satsuki, and their two children – 4-year-old Tomoyo and 9-month-old Daisuke – stood in front of the Kagami residence at half-past-nine that morning with pet Nigou in tow.

"Woof!" Nigou barked the moment Tetsuna opened the gates.

"Good morning," Tetsuna greeted with a smile.

"Hi!" It was the pink-haired Satsuki who spoke first. "Sorry we came early. Tomoyo was really excited to play with Taichi."

"It's all right," Tetsuna patted the little girl's head. "Please, come on in."

"Hey." Daiki greeted once the rest of his family entered the house. "I'll just leave these in the kitchen yeah?" He said, motioning to the bags of groceries he was carrying.

"Yes, please. Thank you."

"Where are the redheads?" he drawled.

"Looking for a missing crab."

"Huh?"

"NIGOU-CHAN!" Taichi shouted as he came running towards the Alaskan malamute.

"Woof! Woof!"

"Gak!" The six-foot plus fire-fighter stopped dead as soon as he walked into the living room. "Nigou…"

"Nigou-chan is so cute mummy!" Taichi said as he hugged the friendly canine.

"Taichi, you need to greet uncle and auntie first." Tetsuna's words fell on deaf ears.

"Can we keep him mummy?"

"Nigou-chan is our doggy!" Tomoyo objected wilfully.

"Nigou-chan used to be our doggy first! Right mummy?!" Taichi asked, eliciting a few light-hearted chuckles from the adults.

"Yes he was Taichi, but we can't keep him here," Tetsuna said in a soothing voice.

"Why not?" The 3-year-old whined.

"Ask your daddy."


While Tomoyo and Taichi played throughout the house with Nigou like the hyper little kids that they were, Tetsuna and Satsuki fawned over baby Daisuke in the living room and their husbands got started on lunch in the kitchen.

"He's gotten so big." Tetsuna was kneeling in front of the 9-month-old baby boy, holding both his hands, and walking him towards her.

"Yeah," Satsuki agreed. "We've been told that he's big for his age. It's a little troubling," She emitted a tight laugh. "I keep thinking he'll be bigger than me before he's even finished elementary school."

"I know the feeling. It'll probably be the same with Taichi," Tetsuna empathised. Her energetic red-headed son would've been a carbon copy of his tall father if not for his lack of fear of dogs. "I kind of miss the times when he was this age," Tetsuna continued as she lifted the cooing baby off the play mat and bounced him in her arms.

"You could always have another one," Satsuki suggested with a cheerful smile.

"…" Tetsuna paused for a moment. "Hmm…"

"Ehh?" An impish smile registered on the pinkette's face. "That response is pretty ambiguous."

"What are you two so hush-hush about?" The tanned police-officer inquired casually as he exited the kitchen and handed his wife a bottle half-filled with baby formula.

"Nothing," Satsuki said. "Just some girl-talk."

He raised an eyebrow. "You weren't talking about that mummy-porn you've been reading, were you?"

"Mummy-porn?" / "Dai-chan!" Their shock was simultaneous.

"50 Shades of Grey is not porn!" Satsuki defended with her palms over Daisuke's little ears.

"Trust me Satsuki. It qualifies." Daiki laughed. "Shit movie though." He said as he disappeared into the kitchen once more.

"I rented the censored version," Satsuki whispered to Tetsuna. "He doesn't know."

"Okay," Tetsuna nodded, her lacklustre reaction having more of an impact on Satsuki than she intended.

"Tetsu-kun!" Satsuki said, flustered upon realising what her husband had just carelessly disclosed. "It's not porn." Her hands still firmly protecting her dear baby's little ears.

"Okay." The bluenette nodded again.

"What's not porn?" The masculine voice coated in an aromatic shroud of home-cooking drew their gazes.

Satsuki let out an exaggerated sigh as Taiga, donned in what was clearly Tetsuna's baby-blue apron, walked toward the dining table, expertly balancing four freshly-cooked dishes in his arms.

"Nothing," Tetsuna began, tilting her head as she continued. "Have you finished cooking already?"

"Nah," He shook his head. "Aomine's still working on the karaage, but it won't take much longer." He leant forward against the back of the sofa, shrinking his considerable height. "He sleeping through the night yet?" Taiga asked.

"Haha… I wish." Satsuki patted Daisuke's head while the baby boy drank from his bottle. "You're a naughty little baby aren't you? You're always bullying okaa-chan and otou-chan!" In response, the infant shook his bottle up and down and gave his mother a string of laughter that sounded more like coughing. In other words, heaven with a little bit of spit thrown in.

Taiga looked at his wife's face, wearing a soft smile that reached her eyes as she said, "He's so cute."

"Tetsuna," Taiga began, placing his hand across the side of her face to caress her left cheek, his ring finger almost touching her lips. "We can have another baby."

If Tetsuna was taken aback by her husband's off-the-cuff suggestion, she sure didn't show it. Her pink-haired friend, however, had her mouth agape, wondering if Taiga had possibly overheard their conversation from before, and, more importantly, how Tetsuna would respond to that statement.

Yet, before the scene had a chance to play itself out, it was interrupted by the cacophony of a 3 year old boy's shrill call for his parents, the thudding footsteps of two young children, and a dog's bark, the last of which made Taiga take three steps backward.

"WE FOUND CRABBY!" Taichi broadcasted to the world.

"It's in the bathroom!" Tomoyo chirped.

"Woof! Woof!"

"The bathroom?" Satsuki repeated.

"That's almost 3 rooms away from the kitchen," remarked Tetsuna.

"What's going on?" Daiki asked as he exited the kitchen with a plate full of crispy fried chicken.

"Crabby was on an adventure!" Taichi declared.

"Huh?"

"Come! Come! Hurryyy!" The kids echoed each other, dragging their parents by their hands to the bathroom where they found the curious little crab nestled in Taiga's trousers, which had fallen off the rail.

"Of all the places…" Tetsuna trailed off.

"Kinda makes sense if you think about it," Taiga laughed. "It was looking for water."

Tetsuna gave her husband a sideways glance, "It was in the sink… I doubt that would lose to your pants in a water supply contest."

"Lucky you Taiga," Daiki gave the redhead a slap on the shoulder, "You could've kissed your chances of having another kid goodbye. Just imagine the damage that little guy could do to your-"

"DAI-CHAN!"


Um.. Sorry that was a bit shit. I'm very out of practice. Thanks for reading anyway.

Bye bye.
