"Do you even love me?!" Akashi yelled as he turned quickly towards his lover.
Kuroko flinched back and couldn't form words because he had never seen the redhead this angry and he was scared.
"You think this is a game, Tetsuya? Do you think my feelings are fake?" The redhead questioned.
The blue haired boy knew that Akashi just had a little too much to drink but as the redhead threw everything off of the table and yelled, Kuroko didn't know what to do.
The blue haired boy tried. He pulled Akashi into a tight embrace to try and dull the anger within him. The redhead scoffed and pushed Kuroko to the ground.
Akashi felt angry. Not at the blue haired boy but he was angry at himself. So angry that he couldn't control himself as he picked up a chair and threw it at the mirror in their living room.
Kuroko flinched at the sound of the glass shattering and shards flying to the ground. Something seemed to click in both of them as they watched their broken reflections stare back at them.
Akashi's eyes widened at what he had just done. He stared at the blue haired boy's face which had a large cut on his cheek from when they were fighting. Kuroko took a deep breath and then ran.
He got up and ran. The blue haired boy slammed the door and heard Akashi calling out for him. Kuroko ran out onto the dark streets and didn't look back.
He decided to stay at a hotel for a few nights, just to stay away from Akashi. The redhead spent most of his days sitting in their room and regretting that night.
The redhead called and Kuroko never picked up. The blue haired boy had grabbed Akashi's jacket before leaving and that was all he snuggled with when he felt completely alone. The redhead would lie back on their bed and worry excessively about Kuroko.
"I'm sorry, Tetsuya. Please...please come back. I'm so sorry."
The blue haired boy listened to the message and teared up. He wanted to go back but he felt something holding him back. It was that simple question: "do you even love me?"
Kuroko rolled over onto his side and mumbled, "Of course I do."
"Tetsuya please. I miss you so much. I'm so sorry. I love you. I hope you're safe. Please come back home."
The word home hit the blue haired boy hard as he listened to the message. He wanted nothing more than to run into Akashi's arms and be held.
But he couldn't. Not until he was able to answer that one simple question. Kuroko was never one to really express his feelings. So when Akashi showed him lots of love, the blue haired boy felt shy and never said it back. It was no wonder Akashi was insecure.
"Tetsuya, I was wrong to fight with you. I was insecure and I didn't realize how ridiculous my actions and emotions were. Please come back home."
The blue haired boy cried, "You're wrong Akashi-kun. It's my fault. It's all my fault."
One day when the redhead called, Kuroko decided to pick up.
"Tetsuya? Tetsuya, did you just pick up?"
The blue haired boy took in a small breath and listened to that deep voice he loved so much.
"Tetsuya...please come home. I-I need you by my side. Please." Akashi's voice shook as if he was holding in tears.
Kuroko hung up.
When the blue haired boy decided that the hotel fee was too expensive, he wandered the streets for as long as possible before sleeping in dark alleyways. He felt like he deserved to not have a home. He couldn't even take care of his boyfriend.
The light faded from Kuroko's eyes as all he thought about was Akashi. The redhead kept calling him but eventually Kuroko's cellphone ran out of battery.
Kagami, the blue haired boy's best friend, offered him three days at his house before he would call Akashi to pick him up. Kuroko was reluctant but he desperately needed a place to stay.
The first day, he spent his time looking like a normal human being again. He ate properly, showered and got dressed in nice clothes.
The second day, he avoided the topic of Akashi all together and simply enjoyed his time at Kagami's apartment.
The third day, in the evening, he finally spoke up.
"Do I love him?" Kuroko asked to no one in particular.
Kagami's ears perked up at the first noise the blue haired boy had made in three days.
"That's a question you have to ask yourself, not me. I know you love him, Kuroko. You're just telling yourself otherwise."
"How do you know though? What if I don't actually love him? What if he regrets the decision to be with me?" The blue haired boy exclaimed, choking up slightly.
Kagami lightly pat his back and asked, "Well...if you saw Akashi with another person, would you easily hand him over?"
Kuroko immediately spat out, "No."
"Just think about it, alright? Think about what you're going to lose."
The next morning, Kagami was happy to see that Kuroko was gone.
Kuroko ran. He ran all the way back to Akashi's apartment. He ran all the way back to their apartment and threw open the door.
Akashi looked stunned, standing in the hallway with his cellphone in hand, and he simply stared at the blue haired boy.
Kuroko melted into the redhead's arms and let out a sigh in content. Tears streamed down his face as he held Akashi closer.
The redhead cried as well. He tightened his grip around Kuroko's waist and sobbed.
The blue haired boy pulled away and whispered, "I have my answer."
Akashi opened his mouth to say that it doesn't matter anymore, but Kuroko quickly continued, "I love you more than anything in the world. I love you so much that you are like my sun. I love you more than I can explain and I'm sorry I never told you these words. I'm sorry I made you feel insecure. I'm so sorry. But no more drinking and no more throwing shit around, got it"
Akashi smiled and smashed his lips over Kuroko's right where they belong. Their memories rushed back to them and they couldn't keep their hands off of each other.
The next day, they went to get their tattoos and then Akashi proposed to the blue haired boy.
As they spent their ever loving eternity together, they would always hold each other close at the end of the day and share soft kisses and "I love you"s.
They passed away several years later after a car accident.
