Kuroko sighed tiredly. Today, he has to attend class from the morning. It's kind of troublesome for Kuroko, but he won't skip the class. He is a good boy, after all.
But still, he feels kind of exhausted since he has to wake up earlier in the morning in order to attend this class. Honestly, he still wants to sleep right now. But that is a big no. Since he didn't want to miss the important materials from the lecturer.
How lucky Kagami is today. He has an afternoon class today. Now Kagami is still sleeping at the apartment. Kuroko feels kind of envious at Kagami's luckiness, but he shrugged it off. After all, both him and Kagami have morning class, after all.
"Okay. For this project, I want you to create a group. Each group has six persons in it. Remember, don't be lazy when working with your group. I will give you a good score if you were active in your group"
Kuroko stared unblinkingly at his lecturer. Groups? The students have to make groups to finish the project? Is it for real? Kuroko has a very low presence after all. Almost invisible. He's not so sure how he will join a group with his classmates. He isn't that close with them.
Kuroko was just about to raise his hand, in order to discuss to his lecturer. He prefers the lecturer to choose a group for him. Before he can even open his mouth, a hand touch his own hand and bring it down. Kuroko frowned and turn his head to look at the culprit. It was a girl. A pretty girl, to be exact.
"Hey. Do you want to join my group?" The girl asks politely.
Kuroko is surprised. Like, really? He didn't even know this girl!
"Umm… Who are you?" Kuroko asks.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Mitsuyuki Yukari" The girl replied while smiling sweetly at him.
"I see.. well, my name is-"
"Kuroko Tetsuya. I know that" Yukari cut him off.
Now Kuroko feels double surprised. She knows? But, how? Why? When? Isn't Kuroko usually went unnoticeable?
Seeing his shocked face, Yukari chuckles slightly.
"I know who you are because we share almost all of the class. And usually I sat right behind you. So, I often see you, Kuroko-san" Yukari explains.
Kuroko nodded his head knowingly. That's very reasonable, after all.
"So, do you want to join my group?" Yukari asks again.
Kuroko thinks for awhile. Well, this will means he get a group, right? He won't let the good chance disappear!
"Sure" Kuroko replied, giving the girl a very small smile.
Yukari blushed. Then she pulls Kuroko to her group. They start to discuss the project until the class is over.
Kagami yawns. He just woke up. Well, now time to prepare himself before he goes to university.
As he was just about to go to the bathroom, he hears knocks. He looks at the front door confusedly, still unsure whether he hears it right or not. But then, the knocks continue. Kagami sighed. Who visits their apartment at this hour?
In the end, Kagami went to open the door. He raised his eyebrows at the person in front of him. He didn't know this guy.
Said guy just smile at him, and looks around behind him.
"Umm… who are you?" Kagami asks.
"Ah, I'm sorry. I'm your neighbor. My name is Akashi Seijuro." The stranger – Akashi – introduces himself.
"I see… Well, my name is Kagami Taiga" Kagami introduces himself.
"By the way, why are you here? Is there something wrong?" Kagami asks.
"Nothing is wrong. I'm just looking for Kuroko-kun. He left his shoes in my apartment." Akashi replied.
Kagami looks at the shoes Akashi holds. Ah, right. That's Kuroko's shoes. And Kuroko did go to Akashi's apartment yesterday.
"I'm sorry but… Kuroko is in the university now. Do you want to place the shoes here? I will tell him later when he arrives home" Kagami offers.
"I see… So that's why I didn't see him at all today. Well anyway, I will leave the shoes in your hand. Please return it to him" Akashi said while giving the shoes to Kagami.
"Sure"
"I'll go back to my apartment now. Thanks for your help, Taiga" Akashi said, starting to walk back to his own apartment.
Kagami frowned. Why did this guy calls him by his first name?
Well. Whatever. He still needs to get ready to go to the university, anyway.
Kagami closed the door, places the shoes down, and continue to the bathroom.
Akashi stared at the schedule in his phone. Ah, that's right. Today Tetsuya has to go to the university from morning. So Kagami is not lying, huh? Tch. How displeasing. He cannot see his Tetsuya because of it.
Akashi pocketed his phone. Till right now, he is very unhappy to know that Tetsuya lives with someone else - A boy no less-. But no matter. In the future, Tetsuya will lives with him, eventually. He will make sure that will happen.
But now, Akashi turn his gaze at his laptop's monitor, time to make sure that Tetsuya will go back safely. Yes, he has hijack Tetsuya's phone so he can know where Tetsuya is.
Hmm… Seems that Tetsuya is still in the university. Glad that Tetsuya is safe, Akashi closes the laptop. Now, what to do now…
Ah, that's right. His Tetsuya loves vanilla milkshakes. He smirks. He will make vanilla milkshakes and offer it to Tetsuya once he goes home. Plus, Kagami will be in the university till night. So he can be together with Tetsuya without any disturbance.
With that thought in mind, Akashi walks to the kitchen
Kuroko yawns quietly. Finally, he can go home now!
He has received a message from Kagami, saying that Kagami will have classes till night. Well, no matter. At least now Kuroko can rest.
Kuroko walks to the apartment. Honestly, he was too tired to walks. He wants to ride taxi. But oh well, since he want to save his money, he got no choice but to walk. It will make him healthier, hopefully.
"Kuroko-san!"
Kuroko turns his head at the voice that call him. Ah, that's Yukari. Said girl was running at his direction, till she finally reaches him.
"Kuroko-san, may I visit your house? Maybe I have to be in your house to finish the project. So, may I visit your house to know where exactly it is?" Yukari looks hopefully at him.
"Sure" Kuroko replied, seeing no disadvantage at letting the girl knows his house.
Yukari smiles happily. They walk side by side after that, chatting all the way until they reach the apartment.
"Wow… Kuroko-san lives here? This place looks so luxurious!" Yukari said, looking at the building in wonder.
Kuroko smiles. He leads her to his own apartment. Yukari is still amazed by the place.
"Your own apartment is so amazing, Kuroko-san!" Yukari exclaims happily.
Kuroko told the girl to wait at the living room while he goes to make a drink.
After awhile, Kuroko return to the living room, carrying a glass of juice with him. He places the glass at the table, right in front of Yukari. Said girl said thanks, then star to drink the juice. After she's done, she places the glass on the table again. Then she turns her gaze at Kuroko and ask
"Kuroko-san, are you from a rich family? How did you manage to pay the rent of this apartment?" Yukari ask curiously.
"Um, no. I'm not from a rich family, Mitsuyuki-san. I can pay the rent because the landlord offered this apartment at a very cheap price" Kuroko explains.
"Aww… How lucky to live at such a beautiful place at a cheap price!" Yukari said, pouting.
Kuroko chuckles. "Well, I guess so"
"By the way, Kuroko-san. Do you want to discuss about the project now? I still have a lot of free time, after all" Yukari offers.
"Sure" Kuroko accepted.
They began to discuss about the project. They didn't even realize that the night has come.
