"Man... This is ridiculous..." Aomine sighed to himself. "Fucking Rin..."
He should have known that cunning bastard would back out of the bet sooner or later and use trickery to get what he wanted. That guy was totally about to rat him out to Momoi! What a douche...
- 2 days ago -
"Of course! He is my closest friend here afterall!" A beaming Rin told Momoi.
Aomine held back the urge to smack the guy. He studied bio after all, only the strongest species stay alive. He needs to be strong and persevere in order to survive. Even if that meant Rin would survive too.
"Ohh! Is that true, Dai-chan?"
"Y-yea... I guess."
"OH I'M SO HAPPY THAT YOU FINALLY MADE A FRIEND OTHER THAN ME AND TETSU-KUN!"
"HAH?! WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! WHAT ABOUT KISE AND MIDORIMA AND AKASHI AND MURASAKIBARA AND THAT BAKAGAMI?!"
"I'll accept Kagami but for the others, you made friends with them before you turned into the mean butt you are now."
Rin snickered.
"WHAT ABOUT SAKURAI?!"
"Dai-chan... I don't think you know the meaning of true friendship. Sakurai was scared silly of you..."
"WELL... I-"
Rin chose this time to interrupt their fight. "You made friends with me."
Aomine looked at him then at Momoi. His fist clenched. "Yea. I guess." He practically growled.
- Back to present -
Rin was practically beaming, which was rare for anyone on a Tuesday morning. He managed to trick Aomine Daiki into hanging out with him! Since Momoi was going to check up on Aomine during the weekends, Rin was in complete control unless Aomine wanted to be castrated. What luck!
He walked down the hallways with a spring in his step. People stared at him, wondering what the heck made Rin Matsuoka so happy. He didn't need to keep counting how many chicks confessed to him anymore when the bet was off! The numbers were too much anyway. To be honest, he had forgotten how many confessions he had gotten by last Friday. Well, it all worked out in the end. Now Aomine didn't have a choice but to do whatever Rin wanted him to do!
"Ah, the power!" Rin beamed to himself. "So much power over one pers- OOF!"
Rin looked up to see the moving back of Aomine stalking angrily through the much rather crowded hallways. People moved out of his way as the 192 cm giant stomped past, fearing they would get trampled. I devilish smile graced his features. This was his chance.
"HEY, AOMINE!" he shouted over the noise people were making.
As if by magic, everyone stopped and turned to look at Rin. Rin never raised his voice, like, never. Aomine stopped and slowly turned around. His usual scowl darkened considerably. Rin paid no notice. He walked towards the dark man, people moving out of his way as he passed, eyes wide and mouth agape.
"Score!" Rin thought to himself, "I knew people would be in awe."
"You free today? Wanna come over and hang?" Rin drawled casually while on the inside, he was bubbling in excitement and anticipation.
Aomine's eyes narrowed but his expression stayed the same. "I'm busy."
"Ahhh... that's disappointing. Tell me when you're free, so we can go out and hang." Well, dang. That didn't work. But there was already an effect. There were already people whispering to each other how the two 'princes of the school' knew each other.
Rin smirked.
"That fucking guy..." Aomine thought to himself, "do it for survival..."
"Yea. Will do, dude." Aomine said in his usual lazy drawl and turned away, walking to the cafeteria.
Rin grinned after him and shouted a quick "DON'T FORGET TO CALL ME, PRINCESS!" In which Aomine responded with a middle finger without even glancing back.
"Oh yeah, baby!" Rin smiled to himself, "Plan make it seem like Aomine and I are friends have taken action." He smiled and whistled as he made his way to his fourth period lecture. What a good day.
On the other hand, Aomine was having a terrible day.
"That guy... making us seem so chummy... how annoying..."
Aomine yawned and picked up a spicy bread, leaving 200 yen behind before making his way to his lecture hall. He was already 10 mins late but at least he was going to show up. The professor can't complain. If he does, then Aomine is out of there.
He entered the hall and ignored the professor's glare, moving to the back of the room and sitting, or rather slumping, down into his seat. He sighed, this was going to be a very dull hour.
