Chapter 11: Daiki-chan to Daiki-kun Continued. This is a time skip chapter.

Kagami laughed hysterically on the paddle boats. Aomine laughing trying to bail out water.

"It has a fucking hole! Damn it," Aomine cackled Momoi and Riko bailing out water giggling wildly as the boys paddled fast for the docks.

"That's it this isn't working. We're almost sunk anyways," Kagami said as it sunk lower water spilling over the top and then Kagami bailed out of the boat.

"DON'T LEAVE US YOU ASSHOLE," Aomine cried laughing.

"I'M NOT STAYING ON THE TITANIC WITH YOU PEOPLE!"

"KAGAMI-KUN THAT'S RUDE," Riko exclaimed.

"I LOVE YOU RIKO!"

"YOU ASSHOLE COME BACK HERE AND SAVE US," Aomine yelled laughing harder pedaling faster than the boat gurgled sinking completely. Aomine caught it by the edge to keep it from going to the bottom. "HELP ME PULL THIS UP AND FLIP IT SO WE CAN GIVE IT BACK!"

"URRGGHHH FINE," he flipped it with him then they put the girls on top as a float and pushed them along.

"Stupid titanic," Kagami pouted.

"What was the iceberg," Aomine teased.

"Akashi and Kuroko when they zoomed by us screaming they were sinking," Kagami cackled making the other three laugh.

They caught up the pair pedaling and bailing water minutes later.

"You assholes jinxed us," Aomine exclaimed.

Akashi started laughing with Kuroko.

"Don't make us laugh we're already out of breath," Akashi breathed.

"Hey...Dai-kun want to play pirates and take over that boat and pedal to shore?"

"...Yes."

They threw them over with a battle cry and stole the boat pedaling fast to keep it up longer and got to the peer cackling. They explained to the workers what happened making them apologize but erupt into laughter realizing they just stole the better boat from their friends. When the other four got there the boys chased Aomine. The girls ran after Kagami giggling and threatening him. He screeched with laughter when he ran into Kiyoshi and they made their longtime friend hold Kagami down and their boney little fingers tickled him senseless. A crowd watched recording his adorable laughter. It was the most adorable thing they had ever heard. He gasped for air when they stopped and sat up panting still in giggles. When he calmed he peered up but the crowd was gone although Kuroko and Akashi were recording him smiling. He peered up at Aomine who was standing still staring at him blushing.

"Why didn't you save me Daiki-kun," he spat smacking his leg.

"It was too cute...so so so cute."

"Was not," he complained blushing embarrassed.

"Right those people stood there recording you because it wasn't cute," Riko snorted.

"THEY DID WHAT," Kagami roared.

"Calm down. We need to go change now," Akashi dismissed.

They went back to their homes to change. Kagami went next door with food for dinner after.

"Aho! I brought you food open up," he called kicking his door lightly.

"Baka," he countered opening the door.

They teased each other eating dinner on his couch. The next day was like a dream. A very bad dream.

'It burns,' Kagami thought vision foggy. 'Burns,' he thought again a little girl screaming beside him through the haze. 'Fire...Call...House...little girl...floor collapsing...need out...' he thought groggily. He saw the beam on his chest the little girl wailing beside him pushing at it.

"Run," he croaked pointing at the door. "Be brave and run," he said shoving her toward it. She wailed running out of the house fire surrounding her figure his fire coat around her fluttering in the wind.

'Hurts. Burns. So hot. Need out,' his mind jumbled together as his vision faded. 'Need out...Daiki-kun...He'll be worried...' he thought as his vision went gray. 'Daiki-kun,' he thought as blue went into his vision. 'Daiki,' he thought seeing his screaming face above his twisted with worry.

"Daiki-kun," he murmured as his eyes shut head rolling to the side.

Aomine stared at his beautiful face bandages on it from burns and wrap around his chest and arms from other burns. He had tubes in his nose giving him oxygen to breath in.

"Daiki-kun," he whispered in his unconscious state every five minutes.

"I'm right here," he always responded gently holding his bandaged hands in his. After waiting all night, the next morning red eyes fluttered open sleepily. "Nice to see you finally awake Taiga-chan," Aomine said staring into his confused red eyes.

"Hey," Kagami said touching his face. "You were in my dream."

"Was I really," Aomine hummed grabbing his wrist and pressed a kiss to his palm.

"You were burning the food," he croaked grinning. Aomine barked out a laugh leaning over and hugging him.

"Yeah sounds like something I'd do."

"And you weren't letting me help you kept blocking me with your back so I couldn't save the food so I kept hitting your back and yelling at you. But you kept ignoring me," he continued.

"Definitely something I'd do."

"I know," he smiled.

Aomine nuzzled into his neck sighing.

"I was so worried." he murmured.

"I know. I'm sorry," he said quietly.

"It's not your fault. It's the floor's fault."

"Go beat it up."

"I WILL," he roared playfully making him go into adorable giggles.

"How did I go from sinking titanic pedal boats last week to blazing fires this week?"

"I don't know but you need a day off. No sinking no burning," Aomine chided.

"I'm going to get flooded next time," Kagami decided.

"No!"

"Life is going to find loop holes it's out to get me!"

"I can tell!" he exclaimed.

Kagami laughed as they kept making jokes about what was going to happen next to them since life was out to get both of them. Aomine was burned from barging into the burning house as soon as he saw the little girl run out with Kagami's flame coat on alone. She blubbered about the floor falling in and Kagami shoving her out of the way so it landed on him. Aomine was off in the next second despite the screams at his back. He managed to lift the beam off and pull Kagami out carrying him on his back out of the collapsing house. Aomine laughed as Kagami tortured the hospital until they released him after a few days.

"You are something else you know that," he laughed getting him home.

"I wanted freedom and I got it."

"You're stuck in bed for a few more days. I'll make sure you are in bed resting," Aomine shrugged.

"Fight me," Kagami said defiantly.

"Maybe later."

Kagami smiled over his fussing until he was healed. Aomine clearly worried over him a lot and wanted to take care of him.

"What are we exactly Daiki-kun," he asked that night when they were cuddling.

"Whatever you want us to be," he smiled. "I love you so I'll accept anything."

"I want to be…..an old married couple since you proposed to me when you were little," he teased rolling on him.

Aomine blushed and booped his nose with his finger playfully.

"Now you're proposing to me."

"No, I'm responding to your proposal," he insisted.

They bickered playfully over who proposed to who for thirty minutes until Aomine kissed his lips to shut the playful redhead up.

"I'll propose to you again sometime. Be patient. Then we can be an old married couple," he laughed cuddling him.

"Ok," he agreed beaming.

"Though you have to accept I'm the husband because I'm bigger Taiga-chan."

"No way!"

"Yes way!"

They started bickering all over again both laughing and beaming at each other. Despite not being married yet they were definitely already an old married couple.

I love my old married couple dorks! We'll say this is set about four months after their reuniting in the last chapter.
