Title: Just Kidding

Imayoshi waved at the younger boy on the way out. He had a feeling it would anger Hanamiya, especially since he just lost.

The other boy regarded him coolly, hardly sparing him a glance. This flustered Imayoshi, but he wouldn't show it in front of his team. He hated how unaffected Hanamiya was to him. Or was he pretending to be that way?

"I'm sorry, but maybe you should try talking to him instead of taunting him." Sakurai said timidly.

"He has a point," Wakamatsu defended. "I know you guys know each other but…"

"Trust me," Imayoshi cut him off, "You don't want to be near him when he's angry."

"He didn't seem mad me." Aomine sounded skeptical.

"If it will make you guys happy, I'll go say something." Imayoshi rolled his eyes, though no one could see it. He was really just looking for an excuse to go see the time he caught up to Hanamiya he was about to leave.

"Go somewhere else." The boy snapped.

"I came to talk, not to make fun of you."

"Talk," he looked at the other almost longingly.

"Yes, about middle school." He knew that, that was the root of their problems at the moment. If he hadn't done what he did, they would still be together.

"I wanted to do the same for a while." Shoichi was surprised by Makoto's openness. It left him practically speechless.

"I want to get back together," Makoto continued, "I know you have your own reason for dropping contact with me, but I've really missed you, and not a day goes by that I don't…"

Imayoshi grasped the boys hands, "Makoto I…"

"Just kidding!" Hanamiya all but cheered, pulling his hands away, "Like I would say something like that you dumb ass. Go fuck yourself."

With that Hanamiya turned and walked away.

Imayoshi turned away as well, trying to pretend he wasn't upset. He really did miss the younger boy and does regret breaking contact with him. Though, he had a feeling Makoto wanted to be together again as well, he knew he wouldn't say it.

He swallowed his emotion before returning to his team. To his surprise Momoi hugged him the moment he got back, saying something along the lines of "he's not worth it anyways". Which means that the rest of the team saw the interaction that just happened. It was hard to act like he didn't care, because Makoto was worth the effort. He just wished he recognized it back then.

Meanwhile, Hanamiya sat on the bus with the rest of his team. His teammates didn't dare talk to him once they could sense his mood. He glared out the window hating both himself and that jerk. He knew better than to trust him again. He shouldn't of trusted him in the first place. That was what his gut had told him, and he should of listened. Now he was sitting here broken hearted and trying not to cry.
