Akashi slept well past morning into early afternoon. He was already accustomed to sleeping extremely late and with everything that happened yesterday, he was exhausted more than usual.

Kuroko was exhausted as well, spending a lot of his energy pleasing Akashi. He held him close in his sleep, snuggling close and yawning slightly.

Akashi woke up first, shifting a bit and grimacing at the feel of dried cum on his body and sore butt. He sighed a little before he closed his eyes and lightly dozed off, just enjoying the feeling of being with Kuroko.

Kuroko felt Akashi shift a bit and he woke up slightly. He yawned, before opening his eyes and looking at Akashi. "Akashi-kun?"

Akashi didn't bother answering, just hummed to show he was awake, keeping his eyes closed as he nestled closer to Kuroko.

Kuroko slightly smiled, holding him close. He closed his eyes a bit, before sighing. "What time is it?"

Akashi rolled further on top of Kuroko so he could look at his clock with bleary eyes just to stiffen when he saw that his shift was soon. He felt too sore to work though and he certainly wouldn't be able to dance later that night.

"Almost one." Akashi replied as he reached over to his nightstand for his phone. "Please let me make a quick call."

Kuroko let him roll over him, taking a deep breath before yawning. He was surprised by the time, but they did stay up late. He nodded, letting him reach for his phone. "Go ahead."

Akashi dialed the tea house, waiting for Maria to answer, explaining to her that he wasn't coming into his shifts for the day. He put the phone on speaker and closed his eyes, resting on Kuroko while she rambled and reprimanded.

He was nearly asleep again when she finished, compromising that he worked two late night/morning shifts which he reluctantly agreed to before hanging up.

"Hard to believe that my parents own this entire place." Akashi said in amusement as he hung up but didn't leave his spot on top of Kuroko.

Kuroko idly stroked Akashi's hair softly as he listened to Marie ramble on, staying quiet. He felt a bit guilty for making Akashi promise he would do those night shifts, but he couldn't completely regret what they did.

"Just think of it like a family business, I guess. That's what I would do." Kuroko said slowly, closing his eyes.

"It is a family business." Akashi said with amusement as he shifted around a bit, gauging how sore he was. He rolled off of Kuroko and looked down, grimacing a little when he saw his new kimono soiled a bit from their activity last night.

"I didn't mean.. Nevermind." Kuroko said, shaking his head. He sat up once Akashi got off, and looked at the kimono. "Oh, sorry.. That was probably my fault.."

"It's fine." Akashi said as he carefully bundled it up and got out of bed, stumbling just the barest bit. He walked over to a small basket he had in the closet and placed the kimono there, making a note to clean it later.

"Be careful." He said, noticing him getting up and wAlking to a basket in the room. He stayed on the bed, stretching a bit.

Akashi hummed as he also stretched a bit, looking down at the dried cum on his body with clear disgust.

"I'm going to take a shower." Akashi said as he looked at Kuroko.

Kuroko looked at him, smiling a bit in amusement. "I see. Go ahead, unless you want me to join you?"

"Why don't you join me?" Akashi asked softly, with a small smirk.

Kuroko blinked, seeing his smirk, before continued smiling. "Then I guess I have no choice."

"Good, then come on." Akashi said with a chuckle, grabbing two towels for the both of them.

Kuroko nodded, slowly standing from the bed. He stretched again, before walking over to Akashi.

Akashi smiled at Kuroko, kissing him on the cheek, before he led him over to his medium sized bathroom. Since he was already naked Akashi walked over to the shower and turned it on, making sure the temperature was perfect.

Kuroko followed him, still smiling. He stood by the shower, watching him turn on the water and get a certain temperature.

Akashi pulled Kuroko in gently, kissing him on the lips before he began rubbing his stomach, trying to get everything off of him.

Kuroko got in with him willingly, and couldn't seem to stop smiling softly. He watched Akashi for a second, before began to clean himself off carefully.

Once enough was gone, Akashi grabbed his shampoo, pouring a lot of it in his hands. He began washing Kuroko's hair, running his hand through wet locks and massaging his scalp slightly.

Kuroko paused for a moment, before letting Akashi wash his hair. He hummed a bit, closing his eyes.

Akashi tilted Kuroko's head to make sure none of the shampoo got into his eyes as he continued to work on Kuroko's hair, lathering it up. A few minutes later he gently pulled Kuroko under the spray to rinse off before he began working on his own hair.

Kuroko let Akashi continue, and once he was done, he decided to return the favor. He slowly moved Akashi's hands away from his hair, before he began softly rubbing the shampoo into his hair, being gentle.

Akashi moved his hands to Kuroko's waist, bring him closer as he hummed at the comforting feeling.

"I didn't ask, how are you feeling?" Akashi asked.

"I'm fine, but I should be asking you that. Are you okay?" Kuroko asked, tilting his head. He continued softly washing Akashi's hair, more focused on brushing his hair rather then washing it.

"Mhmm." Akashi hummed as he leaned against Kuroko slightly before reaching over for the soap and washcloth. He lathered up the cloth before he began running it over Kuroko's body, taking his time.

"Watch your eyes." Kuroko said, as he slowly moved them so he could rinse Akashi's hair. He let him use the washcloth to clean him, not minding one bit.

Akashi paused a little, tilting his head to get all the shampoo out of his hair, before he continued to take his time washing Kuroko. He watched as the cloth ran over Kuroko's smooth skin, running it over every contour of Kuroko's body. With a small lick of his lips, Akashi knelt down and ran the cloth over Kuroko's lower body.

Kuroko watched Akashi, biting his lip a bit as he knelt down to get lower, but closed his eyes and relaxed. "I want to wash you too, when you're done washing me."

"Okay." Akashi said but his movements were unhurried, running the cloth over Kuroko's butt, his legs and even his feet, placing kisses on the skin every so often.

Relaxing again, Kuroko kept his eyes closed, sighing softly. This was nice, taking a shower with Akashi after they woke up for the day.

Akashi finished up, running the cloth up Kuroko's body as he stood back up, licking Kuroko's lips playfully.

Kuroko opened his eyes, smiling a bit at Akashi, before giving a small peck to his lips.

Akashi smirked as he rinsed Kuroko's body off, taking the time to run his hands down his body some more, his fingers continuing their exploration to commit Kuroko's body to memory.

"If I didn't know better I would be thinking that you wanted more from earlier." Kuroko purred out slyly, smirking slightly himself.

"What would you do if I did?" Akashi asked playfully as he pulled Kuroko closer to him, lazily kissing Kuroko's lips, his eyes content as he looked at Kuroko.

"Then I'd comply to your wish." Kuroko said, licking Akashi's lips a bit in the kiss before pulling away. "Because you looked really pleased when we did it~"

"Oh?" Akashi said with a small smirk as he placed his hands on Kuroko's hips before backing up against a wall, pulling Kuroko along with him. He moved his arms around Kuroko's neck and leaned over for another kiss.

Kuroko hummed a little, smirking a bit. He followed Akashi, moving his hands to his waist, before moving forward to meet up in the middle with Akashi to kiss.

Akashi hummed happily, smiling into the kiss as his fingers idly played with the hairs on the nape of Kuroko's neck. His eyes slid closed as he enjoyed the feeling of Kuroko's lips against his own, feeling like he could never get enough.

Kuroko closed his eyes, enjoying the kiss. He tilted his head a bit, deepening the kiss slowly, sighing happily.

Akashi eagerly assisted Kuroko in deepening the kiss, his arm wrapping around Kuroko's waist in a attempt to get Kuroko closer to him.

Kuroko saw the attempt, and moved closer until he made Akashi press up against the wall. He slowly tugged at Akashi's bottom lip for access.

Akashi immediately opened his mouth, eager, his eyes opening once more to just watch and appreciate Kuroko's face. His hands moved and trailed up and down Kuroko's body.

Kuroko slipped his tongue into Akashi's awaiting mouth, roaming excitedly. He opened his eyes slightly, looking into Akashi's heteromatic eyes, smiling softly seeing them.

Akashi met Kuroko's tongue with his own without any hesitation, allowing Kuroko to explore his mouth with a moan. His eyelids lowered and he gave Kuroko a sultry seductive look when he saw Kuroko looking at him.

Kuroko stared at him, before he slowly sucked on Akashi's tongue again, smirking a bit. He moved his hands down, rubbing the skin on his thighs, just around the crotch.

Akashi's eyes closed momentarily before he opened them, anticipation now in his eyes as he silently watched Kuroko. He pushed Kuroko's tongue out of his and into his own mouth so he could explore Kuroko's mouth.

Kuroko let him explore his mouth, groaning a bit. He closed his eyes again, as one of his hands lightly grasp Akashi's member. The other moved around, slowly prodding at Akashi entrance, wondering if he would be willing to do it again. If he didn't, then he would back off of course.

Akashi didn't even pause or hesitate in his movements, instead he moaned eagerly, moving his hips back and forth to push Kuroko's finger inside of his still slightly loose hole and to thrust into Kuroko's hand.

Kuroko opened his eyes in surprise, before smirking slightly. He made sure Akashi wouldn't fall since the floor was wet, and began thrusting his fingers into Akashi, while moving his hand up and down around Akashi's member quickly.

Akashi broke the kiss in order to tilt his head so it pressed against the wall behind him, moans and gasps leaving his mouth as his eyes shut. He continued to move his hips, pleasure running rampant through him.

Kuroko leaned down, lapping at his neck happily. Only he would be able to get this side out of Akashi. He added another finger, moving it inside faster and harder, and moved it around.

Akashi moaned loudly when Kuroko brushed his prostate and he bit his lip savagely in order to stifle anymore loud noises from coming out. He didn't necessarily need the preparations because of last night but it felt so good to feel Kuroko's fingers in him.

Kuroko smirked against his neck. "Hopefully I'll be able to make you scream this time." He said, before removing his fingers. He let go of Akashi's member as well, looking at him to see if he really was okay with continuing.

"You can try." Akashi said with a cocky smirk before pausing, wondering how they were going to do this since they were in a shower.

Kuroko huffed playfully, before turning. "Looks like I won't be washing you for a while then, all well." He said, turning off the water. He then carefully pulled Akashi out the shower, moving Akashi's arms around his neck before he slowly picked him up.

Akashi gasped a little in surprised, tightening his arms around Kuroko's neck. He relaxed a moment later, trusting Kuroko to not drop him, although he did look at him a bit nervously.

Kuroko kept a tight grip on him, walking him out the bathroom carefully, making sure not to fall. He quickly dropped him onto the bed, before he could drop him, and looked down at him.

Akashi gave him a slow seductive look, crawling up to his knees before pulling Kuroko's hips towards him. He lightly licked Kuroko's member as he looked at him with lust filled eyes.

Kuroko stared at him in surprise, before he softly brushed Akashi's wet hair. "At least you aren't being impatient." He said, smiling softly.

"No, not at all." Akashi said before he moved back. "Now, how do you want to do this?"

Kuroko slowly moved onto the bed. "Turn around? We could do it like that. It'll be easier too."

Akashi nodded as he obediently turned around, on his hands and knees, looking at Kuroko with lust filled anticipating eyes, beckoning Kuroko to him. A hand reached back and parted one of his butt cheeks, revealing his hole to him.

Kuroko watched him, blinking in surprise. He then licked his lips, moving closer to Akashi. "I am still determined to make you scream~" He purred out quietly, slowly taking hold of Akashi's hips.

"Like I said, you can try." Akashi said determinedly, his eyes narrowed in challenge. His hand let go and went back to supporting him, his back arching in anticipation.

Kuroko huffed a bit, but shook his head. He hesitated a bit, wondering if it would be painful if he just went in forcefully. His hands gripped Akashi's hips a bit tighter, before he quickly moved inside Akashi, aiming for his prostate.

Akashi swore loudly as he clenched his eyes closed, feeling both a sudden rush of pain and pleasure at the exact same time. He clenched around Kuroko tightly, trying to get himself under control before he pushed back, impatient.

Kuroko paused for a moment, letting him adjust before he began moving already. He went slow at first, but his hard thrusts made up for it.

Akashi didn't have much to adjust to, after the first initial thrust the pain melted away and he began moving his body to Kuroko's thrusts, a string of moans leaving his mouth.

Kuroko kept his hold on Akashi's hips, and helped him move back into his thrusts. He went a bit faster, leaning over Akashi slightly to go deeper. He nibbled on Akashi's shoulder a bit, watching Akashi's reactions.

Akashi continued moaning, not bothering to hide it, his eyes still closed as he enjoyed the feeling of Kuroko pounding inside of him. He moved his legs wider in hopes to give Kuroko more room, his walls clenching around Kuroko's member every time he thrust inside of him.

Kuroko clenched his eyes closed for a second, feeling Akashi get tighter every time he thrusted, knowing it was on purpose. He then opened his eyes, determined to win his challenge.

He made Akashi move his arms, so he laid on his chest, and held his arms in front of him. He could now go deeper, and he sped up his pace and increased the force of his thrusts.

Akashi shook under Kuroko, loud embarrassing noises leaving his mouth, saliva managing to escaped and run down his chin. He looked at Kuroko with glazed eyes, not able to do anything but endure the torrents of pleasure overtaking his body.

Kuroko looked at him, tilting his head before smirking slightly. He immediately slowed down to a painfully slow pace, his thrusts light and missing Akashi's prostate a few times. He kept a hold on Akashi's hips so he didn't push back. Maybe he just wanted to drive Akashi mad this time.

Akashi whined before he could stop himself, writhing under Kuroko, his eyes looking at the other male desperately. He tried to move, tried to push back because it just wasn't enough, he needed more.

Now he stopped all together, staring down at Akashi. He continued smirking, slowly pulling out but not all the way. "I don't hear you saying anything."

Akashi whined again, his body completely writhing and bucking against Kuroko, trying to get fight Kuroko's grip, desperate noises escaping from the back of his throat.

"Please.." Akashi finally broke down and begged. "Tetsuya...Please..."

Kuroko watched with amusement seeing Akashi try to get more, but he kept a tight grip, preventing him from getting much. "What was that Akashi-kun?" He asked mischievously.

"Please Tetsuya!" Akashi cried as he clutched the blanket under him tightly, his body shaking in his desperation.

Kuroko tilted his head, humming a bit. "What are you begging for me to do?" He asked slowly, his smirk only getting wider.

"Damnit Tetsuya!" Akashi snarled, glaring at Kuroko angrily, renewing his efforts to break out of Kuroko's hold.

Kuroko saw he was getting angry, and shook his head. "Alright alright I'm sorry." He said, before he began moving again, not wanting Akashi to be angry with him. "I'll continue, even faster, harder.. deeper.. if you start screaming like I wanted you to~"

"Alright." Akashi said as he closed his eyes, moaning when he felt Kuroko beginning to move again, letting the pleasure flow through him once more. "Just..please.. Tetsuya I need more.."

Kuroko smiled, nodding a little. "Then I'll give you more." He said slowly, before beginning to return to his previous pace before he had stopped to make Akashi beg. He moved inside Akashi harshly, aiming for his prostate, going as deep as he could.

The sounds bursting out of Akashi's mouth were loud, not quite screaming like Kuroko wanted, but getting close. The pleasure was getting overwhelming and all he could do was shake and writhe under Kuroko, pleading words in between his loud moans.

Kuroko kept up his pace, doing his best to increase the speed and force, panting a bit from effort. He slowly reached around, grasping Akashi's member. He held the tip with his thumb to make sure he didn't come too soon, before he began moving his hand up and down quickly.

This time Akashi did scream a little as the pleasure grew too much to handle almost. He was pounding so hard and deep inside of him, hitting his prostate perfectly and then hand was racing up and down his member so quickly. Tears of pure pleasure watered his eyes, saliva still dripping down his chin as he let out loud noises.

Kuroko smiled hearing the loud shouts and a scream here and there. It wasn't what he had in mind but it was good enough. He leaned over him, squeezing his member a bit as he kept thrusting and moving his hand. "What does it feel like, Akashi-kun? Am I making you feel good?"

"Yes!" Akashi sobbed as he shuddered hard, his breathing coming in gasps. "I-t feels s-so good!"

Kuroko smirked a bit, nodding slightly. That's what he wanted to hear, Akashi shout words of pleasure. "Tell me how much it feels good.." He said, closing his eyes as he felt the pressure building in his stomach.

Akashi clawed the bed, gasping, looking at Kuroko with desperate glazed eyes. "I-I've never f-felt this good before...IIt's..." Akashi broke off, shouting as a particularly hard thrust. "A-almost t-too much!"

Kuroko hummed in happiness, quickening the pace of his hand so Akashi was ready to cum once he let him go.

"I'm guessing you.." He paused for a bit, closing his eyes tightly to push down the pleasure for a minute. "Y-you love me going hard and deep into you, huh?"

"Y-Yes!" Akashi fought the word out of his mouth as screams began erupted out his mouth. It was too much, way to much, he couldn't keep this up. The pleasure was just too much, his vision was blackening around the edges from it as he couldn't get enough air into his lungs.

Kuroko glanced at him, thinking that was enough. He slowly let go of Akashi's member, but kept his thrusting at the same pace and force. He hummed a bit, holding back from cumming before Akashi.

Akashi screamed loudly, louder than all the noises that had passed his lips before, his body convulsing as he came hard. His eyes rolled back and he completely blanked out as unimaginable pleasure tore through him. He clenched so tightly around Kuroko, as if it make sure he wouldn't leave.

Kuroko stared in surprise at hearing Akashi's scream, but didn't think much of it. He clenched his teeth, trying to hold back but failed and came hard and deep into Akashi. He still thrusted his hips a bit through the pleasure, before settling down. He panted heavily, extremely tired.

Akashi collapsed, his body wracked with tremors from the aftermath of so much pleasure, his eyes still glazed. He breathed heavily trying to get more air, before he completely passed out.

Kuroko looked down at Akashi, hoping he didn't over do it. "Akashi-kun, are you alright? Did I over do it?"

Akashi remained passed out for a few long seconds before he opened his eyes slowly, still breathing heavily, his heart racing.

Kuroko looked at him worriedly, turning his face a little to look at him. "Akashi-kun?"

Akashi looked at Kuroko, a little shyly at being seen in such a vulnerable state, his hand reaching up to touch Kuroko's face, caressing his cheek.

Kuroko slowly lifted his hand, placing it over Akashi's. "Are you okay, Akashi-kun?"

Akashi didn't answer he just placed his other hand on Kuroko's other cheek, pulling him closer so he could kiss him gently, his eyes half closed.

Kuroko let him, leaning down and kissing him softly. Though he pulled away, looking at Akashi as he started to slowly pull out.

Akashi shuddered as he felt Kuroko pull out, biting his lip harshly at the feeling, clenching his eyes closed. He hated that feeling, would always probably.

He paused, still half way inside Akashi. "Akashi-kun, are you okay?" He asked again, this time referring to his tightly closed eyes and lip biting.

"Yeah." Akashi said softly, his throat a bit sore from all the screaming, and he opened his eyes, trying to give Kuroko a reassuring smile.

"I think I over did it. I'm sorry, Akashi-kun." Kuroko said, before he fully pulled out. He frowned a bit when the heat and tightness left from around his member, but he didn't really care.

"No, it was good." Akashi said with the same soft voice, pulling Kuroko to him once more, kissing him, silently demanding affection almost like a cat.

Kuroko stared at him, before softly returning the kiss. He was glad that Akashi was pleasured, but he was still unsure about the consequences. After all, Akashi will be sore for a while.

Akashi's eyes slid closed and his kiss became a bit sloppy but his arms wound around Kuroko tighter, not willing to let him go.

Kuroko felt that he couldn't pull away since Akashi was holding onto him tightly, and he sighed slightly. He continued returning the kiss softly, as best as he could since it was a bit sloppy.

Akashi eventually just pulled away, loosening his arms from around Kuroko, his eyes opening just a bit to see what Kuroko would do.

Kuroko looked at Akashi, before smiling softly. "You should get some sleep. You must be sore."

Akashi nodded, his eyes already sliding close, and before he knew it he was fast asleep, completely drained of energy but satisfied in a way he never knew he could be.

Kuroko slowly laid down, pulling him close. He sighed a bit, seeing him asleep already. He closed his eyes, falling asleep as well.

They slept for a long time, completely satisfied in each other's arms. They would have continued to sleep if it weren't for a phone ringing. Akashi's cellphone, the one he kept on the nightstand by the bed, vibrated loudly against the wood.

Kuroko slept peacefully until he heard that damn phone. He groaned, reaching over since he was the closest. He grabbed the phone, shaking Akashi awake. "Akashi-kun.. Your phone.."

Akashi sighed softly, not bothering to open his eyes but he reached out with a hand. He waved it around a bit before he touched Kuroko's hand and he took the phone, flipping it open and answering it without even looking to see who it was.

"Hello?" Akashi answered tiredly, a bit grumpily, his voice still a bit rough.

"Seijuro Akashi." His mother's voice rang out and Akashi's eyes snapped open, jolting up to sit, wincing and cringing at the pain that brought.

"Okaachan." Akashi said with wide eyes.

Kuroko couldn't help but smiled slightly, seeing Akashi tiredly look for his phone. He helped him by putting it into his hands, and watched him answer.

Seeing him suddenly sit up, he sat up as well, rubbing his back seeing that split second pained face.

"Okaachan?.." He asked quietly.

Akashi didn't reply at first before he turned to Kuroko and mouthed "mother" with his lips. He put a finger to his mouth before he put the phone on speaker.

"It's been a long time since we've talked." Akashi said as he moved closer to Kuroko.

"Enough small talk Seijuro!" His mother snapped. "So, when we you going to tell me you were gay and have a boyfriend?!"

Kuroko nodded in understanding, and looked at the phone when it was put on speaker. He jumped a bit when Akashi's mother suddenly yelled, but then he frowned.

He was about to reply, but stopped himself, remembering that Akashi motioned him to be quiet. He just pulled Akashi closer protectively, staring at the phone.

Akashi tilted his head. His mother was yelled yet she didn't actually sound angry. No, when she was angry she got misleadingly quiet, her words sharp and dangerous.

"Okaachan?" Akashi questioned with a small frown.

"You would THINK my own son would tell me first! But no, I had to hear it from Marie!" His mother shouted. "Honestly Seijuro! I know we don't live in the same house but this is a need to know subject don't you think?!"

Kuroko still didn't like the yelling, though he was surprised by her words. He was now confused. Was she angry or not? And Marie told her?

He looked at Akashi, laying his head on his shoulder. "Akashi-kun, I'm confused.."

"...Who was that?" Akashi's mother inquired and Akashi bowed his head, chuckling nervously. "Oh! Are you the boyfriend?!"

Kuroko scooted closer to Akashi, holding onto him. "...Yes, I am.." He said slowly, not knowing if she'd get mad.

"Well it's nice to meet you!" His mother said happily. "My name is Sayu Akashi, tell me, what's your name?"

Kuroko blinked, looking at Akashi confused. He then looked back at the phone. "..Kuroko Tetsuya. It's nice to meet you, Akashi-kun's mother.."

"Just call me Sayu." His mother said flatly. Akashi smiled a little, grabbing Kuroko's hand and squeezing it. "Young man don't you think you're off the hook! How could you not tell your own mother? I'm so hurt. I just want to cry."

"Okaachan..." Akashi said and a fake sniffle came from the phone. He sighed a little although his eyes were fond. "What can I do to make it up to you?"

"You can bring him over someday!" His mother chirped. "Not anytime soon, you know your father, but someday! Oh Tetsuya, the pictures I could show you of Seijuro!"

Kuroko watched Akashi and listened to his mother. He smiled a little, seeing how they spoke to each other. It was a really nice thing to wake up to.

"I could also show you a few pictures of Akashi-kun, he looks absolutely beautiful in each and every one." He said, looking at Akashi truthfully with a soft smile.

"Yes but nothing beats the picture of a five year old Seijuro kicking his birthday cake!" His mother chirped and Akashi looked mortified. "Or when he started crying his eyes out at his second birthday because he thought his cake was on fire! I also got some-"

"Okaachan!" Akashi barked out loudly, a small blush on his face while he avoided looking at Kuroko.

Kuroko blinked a bit, before covering his mouth, lightly laughing but trying to cover it up. "It's sounds very cute.. Sayu-San. Though mine are nothing like that, just Akashi-kun in his kimono's, dancing beautifully with his fans.."

"Oh yes, it's something he's done since he could walk! Takes after me." His mother said with pride and Akashi just buried his head in his hands, wishing they would change the subject. "Ah, your father will be home soon I must be getting off. Do call some more Seijuro, and please do bring him home at a later date."

"I will goodbye okaachan." Akashi said before he closed the phone, hanging up on her. "Well...There's my mom."

Kuroko smiled lightly, saying his goodbyes before Akashi hung up. "I like your mother. I'm glad she accepts us well." He said, slowly taking his hand.

"You're not meeting her." Akashi said as he fell back on the bed, keeping his hand where it was in Kuroko's. "Not letting you see those pictures."

Kuroko pouted, squeezing his hand slightly. "But I still want to meet her, I'll convince her to not show the photos?"

"She'll throw it in your face." Akashi moaned playfully, his eyes showing he wasn't serious, a small smile on his face. He was actually very relieved his mother had accepted it although his father was probably still adjusting or she would have ordered him to bring Kuroko right then and there.

Kuroko chuckled slightly, laying down beside him. "It was nice to wake up to that though." He said truthfully, smiling at Akashi.

"Yeah, I haven't spoken to her in a while." Akashi said thoughtfully. "You know, I've worked so long at this tea house I tend to forget about other things."

"You should get out more then." Kuroko said, before humming a bit. "You should get a mini vacation or a raise. Just some time off to relax, maybe take a few pictures, some dates~.."

Akashi rolled on top of Kuroko, a smile on his face as he kissed Kuroko on the lips, surprisingly elated with the idea. He never had much of a childhood, content with working at the tea house, but now maybe he should take a bit of a break, enjoy life with Kuroko.

There was a grumbling sound and Akashi blinked in surprise as he looked at his stomach before looking at the clock, seeing that it was late evening. When was the last time they ate?

"Here, I'll cook us something." Akashi said as he got up and stood up, wincing a tiny bit at the pain that blossomed from his rear.

Kuroko smiled, returning the small kiss. He hoped that Akashi took up his offer of getting a break. It would be great for them to have a little bit to relax, be together, maybe get some pictures done. Which reminded him, he would need to develop his pictures soon.

He blinked when he heard the rumbling noise, and looked at Akashi's stomach. He chuckled a bit, looking back up at him. "I can help, since you need to be careful moving." He said teasingly, standing up slowly.

"Sure." Akashi said with a small smile. "I was just thinking of rolling up some sushi, I have fresh fish in the fridge."

He walked to the kitchen with a small hidden limp, turning to Kuroko to get his opinion on dinner.

"Okay." Kuroko agreed, following Akashi. "I can help if you'd like."

"Alright." Akashi said as he went to the fridge and pulled out an assortment of seafood, mostly different fish. He also pulled out a container of rice and a bamboo mat to roll the sushi. He passed Kuroko a knife and began to slice the fish into skinny strips.

Kuroko stood by, watching him, wondering what he could do. Though once he was handed a knife, and Akashi shown what to do, he began doing the same to help him.

Akashi began rolling the sushi, bringing out seaweed which he wrinkled his nose at as he rolled everything up into sushi, cutting them into pieces.

Kuroko glanced at him, smiling as he saw his reaction to the seaweed. "You don't like seaweed huh?"

"No, but I don't mind it in sushi." Akashi replied as he got a plate and placed the pieces on it strategically so it looked good, almost as if made in a restaurant.

"I see." Kuroko said, walking over. He saw the plate and pouted. "You don't need to make it look fancy, I wouldn't even care if you just threw it on there."

Akashi gave Kuroko a scandalous look as if the mere thought offended him before he walked over to the table in the adjoined dining room. He then ushered Kuroko to sit down while he got two small plates and chopsticks for them.

"So, will you be staying here or going back home?" Akashi asked curiously.

Kuroko blinked, before sitting down as Akashi seemed to want him to sit down. He watched him, tilting his head. "What do you mean?"

"I mean are you spending the night again?" Akashi asked neutrally as he passed Kuroko chopsticks before using his own to grab a piece of sushi distractedly.

"Only if you want me to." He said, taking the chopsticks, thanking him. He took a sushi, studying it for a moment. "I wouldn't mind staying over again, but I will need to develop those photos soon, so I don't forget."

"I wouldn't mind seeing you do it someday." Akashi said as he looked at Kuroko as he popped a sushi in his mouth.

Kuroko blinked, before slowly taking the sushi into his mouth, chewing and tasting slowly. "..I You can see one day." He said, once he finished chewing.

"I would like that." Akashi said with a smile. "Well why not stay the night and then develop them tomorrow since I have to go back to work tomorrow."

Kuroko looked at him, before nodding. "Alright, let's do that. I don't have any problems with that." He said, taking another sushi.

"Alright." Akashi said happily as he took another piece of sushi. He ate his sushi, feeling completely content with Kuroko, a smile on his lips that refused to fade.

Kuroko smiled back, seeing that he was happy. "Are you really happy about that?" He asked softly, not in a rude way.

"I really like you, I like it when you're around." Akashi said softly, not looking at Kuroko and instead focusing on his sushi.

"I do too, but you'd really want to see me develop pictures? It might be boring and long." Kuroko said with a bit of amusement.

"I don't think it will be at all." Akashi said as he looked at Kuroko, curiosity clear in his eyes. "I want to see how you make your beautiful pictures."

Kuroko blinked in surprise, before smirking slightly. "They're only beautiful because you are in it~" Well, he did have some other beautiful pictures, but some of his best were of Akashi.

"No...It's not that." Akashi said with a frown, thinking of the other pictures he had seen. "It's like...You can take something ordinary and bring out its beauty in your pictures."

Kuroko tilted his head, before looking away shyly. "..I just take pictures. No talent in that. It's just pressing a button.." He said slowly.

Though he thought photography was so much more. He was used to hearing "Beautiful photos!" Or "Those are amazing!" But that was because of business. He never heard a compliment like that before.

"I don't believe that." Akashi said flatly. "I've seen pictures, and they are just that; pictures. Things I've seen before all the time, nothing that interesting. But when you take pictures it's different, you see things with different eyes almost. You just know how to capture the pure beauty of things..."

Akashi trailed off, looking away and continuing to eat his food, a bit embarrassed at rambling so much.

Kuroko looked back at him, eyes a bit widened. He wasn't expecting that, and he slowly moved an arm over his nose, hiding his cheeks which became a bit pink.

"... If you say so. No one has ever explained it that way.." He said softly, not looking away from Akashi.

"I just really like your work." Akashi said simply quietly, not looking at Kuroko. He finished eating and put his chopsticks on his plate, waiting for Kuroko to finish as well.

Kuroko noticed, so he didn't question it further. He just set down his chopsticks, Boeing his head. "Thank you for the food. It was good, Akashi-kun."

"You're welcome, you helped." Akashi said with a smile as he collected the dishes and putting them in the sink with the promise to do wash them later. "So what now?"

Kuroko stood up, smiling slightly. He then hummed in thought. "We can do anything you want."

"Let's just go and relax for now." Akashi said as he pulled Kuroko to his room. He was still tired and he wanted to relax with Kuroko in his arms.

"Yeah, that would be smart and relaxing~" Kuroko agreed, following Akashi willingly.

Akashi smirked as they entered his room and he pulled Kuroko onto the bed, curling his arms around the other male, getting comfortable. They spent the majority of the night just relaxing, touching each other innocently with small caresses. They also talked, learning about each other until they eventually fell asleep.
