Kuroi was in her room when she heard a knock on the front door.
The raven haired girl got up and practically jumped half the stairs in order to get to the door before one of her parents. She made it just in time and pushed her mother away from the door. "I got it, mom. I'm going out now, I'll be back later! Love you." Kuroi spoke hurriedly. She even gave her mother a kiss on the cheek before slipping her boots on.
"Oh, but I thought-" Kuroi's mother, Kayate, did not get the chance to finish her sentence because Kuroi left hastily. The door slammed behind her which made Kayate jump. "Oh dear..." The older woman sighed.
Kuroi pulled Midorima away from her house in a hurry. It was not until they were a few blocks away did she stop dragging him. Kuroi sighed and dropped Midorima's hand. "Sorry. My mom is weird... I just, I don't think you should meet her yet." Kuroi told the green haired teenager.
Midorima just blinked before he turned away. He adjusted his glasses and mumbled, "Hmph. I didn't want to meet your parents anyway."
"Whatever you say, Tsunderella." Kuroi rolled her eyes.
The emerald green eyed teen looked as if he were going to object to being called a tsundere but fell silent when he noticed a snowflake land on Kuroi's hat. He poked it lightly and watched it melt almost instantly. "It's snowing." He commented.
Kuroi raised her head and watched the snow gently fall from the evening sky. "It is." She agreed. The two stared for at least another few seconds before Midorima shifted his attention back to Kuroi. Kuroi could feel his eyes on her so she glanced back at him. "Well, are we gonna go or not?"
"Of course," Midorima scoffed. He grabbed her hand and pulled her along with him. Kuroi allowed herself to be pulled by Midorima since she had just done the same to him not even five minutes ago.
Eventually the second year students ended up at a park which had a large outdoor ice skating rink. Kuroi grinned when she saw a whole bunch of people skating around, having fun. It certainly looked entertaining. The raven head looked up at Midorima, "I haven't been ice skating since I was little." She told him.
Midorima stared at her momentarily before looking away, his cheeks slightly red. "I- I haven't been ice skating..." He mumbled.
"Ever?" Kuroi asked with a raised eyebrow.
Midorima sighed. "Ever." He confirmed.
"Well, prepare for some major butt pain." Kuroi whispered gleefully. Midorima made a face, not sure of whether he should be scared over the pain or of Kuroi's happiness. The shorter girl only laughed at his expression. "Don't worry, Shinpachi, I won't laugh at you too hard when you wipe out."
"It's Shintarou."
"Hmn?" Kuroi tilted her head at him innocently.
Midorima's eye twitched. "Honestly, I don't know why I even bother..." He mumbled. That only earned him a small giggle. The corner of Midorima's mouth twitch but he resisted the urge to smile. He huffed and walked to the counter where they were able to rent ice skates.
When he got back to Kuroi, he found that the purple eyed girl already had her shoes off. "Aren't your feet cold?" He asked. Without waiting for an answer, Midorima gave Kuroi her ice skates. "Here, just put these on already."
"Okay, mom," Kuroi teased, earning herself a pinch on the cheek. "Ow."
Midorima sat down next to the black haired girl and changed into his ice skates. He glanced at Kuroi and watched as she laced up her skates. He followed suit. "Kuroi," He called softly.
"Yeah?" Kuroi asked, sounding somewhat distracted since she was focused on her task at hand.
Midorima looked away. "I... How about we make a bet."
"A bet?" The raven haired girl asked, finally looking up at the green haired male. "What kind of bet?" She asked in amusement.
"If I manage to not fall flat on my butt, then I get to meet your parents before Christmas." Midorima said, his cheeks tinged a rosy red. He told himself that it was the chill of winter getting to him.
Kuroi stared at him. "And if you do fall flat on your butt?" She pressed.
Midorima huffed. "Then I won't ask to meet your parents until you want me to." He whispered. Midorima did not want to admit it, but he was suddenly determined to win this bet because he just wanted to officially meet Kuroi's parents as her official boyfriend.
"Hmm. Okay." Kuroi grinned. She held her hand out, "Want to shake on it?"
Midorima pushed his glasses up and accepted her hand, "Yes." He smirked. "Just think long and hard about what you want to say to your parents when I come over next."
Sorry if you don't understand why Kuroi calls Midorima 'Shinpachi'... It's because it's an inside joke between my friend and I lol. Anyway, I'll let you decide if he won the bet or not ;)
