Kuroko sat outside the doctor's office as he was told by Midorima's assistant, in wait for someone to escort him to Akashi's office. He didn't understand why he couldn't just walk there on his own; after all he did remember how to get there.
Kuroko sighed and looked down the long hall. It was surprisingly dark with only a few wall side lamps scattered on hall tables to light the way. The atmosphere felt ominous to Kuroko, almost like, in the darkness there was someone there, watching him. In this mansion, it could very well be. After all, Kuroko was someone new and unrecognized in the mafia's home. Kuroko sighed and looked down to his feet. He was so very used to being on edge. It's a survival technique, something that has kept Kuroko alive for years. In addition to his well peaked awareness, Kuroko also has sensitive hearing and a wide range of sight, all developed for the sake of survival, to keep himself from being raped, kidnapped, or killed.
Kuroko closed his eyes and awaited his escort. He knew that there were stairs at the end of the hall and he would be able to hear him coming, so Kuroko listened for the footsteps.
Kuroko was left waiting for a good five minutes before the footsteps were heard coming up the wooden stairs. Kuroko turned his head to the noise, waiting for the person to show up through the darkness. By the sound of it, the person was male. Their footsteps were too loud and heavy for it to be a woman. And the light jingle of metal hitting metal made him think ominous thoughts.
Kuroko watched as the man appeared from the shadows and into the light. He was a strong army like man. His body was built and toned. He wore army style pants and boots and a black tank top. Kuroko looked up to the man's face. He had red hair and eyes. Is hair though was nothing like Akashi's. It was much darker and jagged. And his eyes, his eyes were angrier than Akashi's. This man looked dangerous to Kuroko, but at the same time looked like a good pitcher (If you know what I mean.) Kuroko also noticed that this man was an elite, meaning this was someone he would have to lay. The tattoo on his neck was of a tiger, very fitting for someone as sexy as he was.
Kuroko smiled at the man and bowed his head. The man looked down to Kuroko and raised an eyebrow.
"why you bowin' to me? I'm just here to take you back to the boss." Kuroko raised his head and looked at the man.
"It's only polite to do so in the presence of an elite like yourself."
"Don't do it, I'm on the lowest scale of the elites, I was lucky to even make it in. I don't need the respect, although it is flattering."
After giggling for a moment, Kuroko raised his head and walked past the man.
"Well then, shall we go? Um…" Kuroko looked to the man hoping that he caught on to what he was asking for. The man smirked and walked to Kuroko's side.
"Kagami Taiga." Kagami smiled brightly at Kuroko.
"Kuroko Tetsuya, nice to meet you Kagami-kun. Now shall we go?" Kuroko watched as Kagami started walking down the hall.
"Yeah let's go. It's never good to keep Akashi waiting." Kuroko nodded and followed Kagami down the stairs and down the other hallways in the mansion. As they walked Kuroko stared at Kagami. His necklace, jingling as they walked caught Kuroko's attention. It was a silver ring attached to a chain. It Kuroko, it looked like a promise ring, something that he rarely saw in the city. The one time he did see one was when he was with a client who was promised to a woman in the other territory. He told Kuroko that his promise to her was that he would find her and bring her out of the territory. That was the first time Kuroko had ever heard of a promise ring.
Wonder who he's promised to? What was their promise?
Kuroko looked forward, trying not to stare too much. He found that walking next to the man was comforting, as if he was walking next to an officer in a bad neighborhood. He felt protected and most of all, safe. In a place full of people who could kill him, he felt safe next to Kagami. Akashi probably figured that Kuroko would be frightened of his new surroundings, so he decided that Kagami was the right choice to escort Kuroko.
Kuroko also knew that Kagami was chosen because of his intimidating build and scary eyes. Keeping Kuroko from running away or thinking he could run away was something Akashi also interpreted into his choice. Kuroko knows that he can't run away from this man. Kagami would catch him in an instant.
What a smart man Akashi is.
Kuroko smirked to himself. He knew he wasn't going to be getting out of here any time soon.
Kuroko and Kagami finally arrived to Akashi's office. They were greeted by Aomine and Kise who were still standing guard.
Kagami knocked on the door twice, paused and the knocked four times with a pause in the middle. His knocks were different from Midorima's. This gave Kuroko an idea of how the security worked around the boss's office. The guards were there to either allow people to knock or not. If they are allowed, then they knock their own personalized knock. Akashi has memorized all of the knocks and will know who is knocking on his door.
Sure enough, Kuroko heard Akashi say "come in, taiga."
The two walked in, faced to Akashi who was typing away at his computer. Akashi stopped and looked up to his guests.
"Ah Tetsuya, welcome back. How was your doctor's visit? Hopefully it went well; after all if it didn't then you won't need that paycheck anymore." Kuroko nodded his head and looked down. Akashi smirked and looked up to Kagami.
"Have you two been acquainted?" Kagami nodded his head.
"Yes we have sir."
"Good. Tetsuya, Taiga is your first client, please take good care of him for me would you? Not that you have a choice."
Kuroko looked up to Akashi with a surprised look in his eyes.
It's starting already?
"Eh? But Akashi-sama, I haven't been proven clean yet…" Akashi's eyes widened slightly before narrowing into a glare.
"I didn't mean now. I just stated that he is your first client. Have some self-control Tetsuya."
Kagami looked down to Kuroko and smiled. Kuroko blushed lightly and looked down to the ground once more. These men were too much for Kuroko to handle. Their personalities were just too different.
"Anyways Taiga, please take Kuroko to his room, here's the key."
Akashi reached into his top desk drawer and pulled out a key. He tossed it to Kagami who caught it with grace.
"Tetsuya, you have two days until your results or at least this is what I was told. Until then you are not to come out of your room unless it's to eat. Here we eat together as a family and no one is allowed to be late. Kagami will be guarding your room and escorting you to the dining hall. You will be seeing a lot of each other for the next few days so please be kind to each other." Both Kagami and Kuroko nodded and bowed to Akashi before leaving.
The walk to Kuroko's room was shorter than the walk to the doctor's office. In fact the room was only two hallways away from Akashi's office. The room's door was white, much more different than the other doors around it. A wall light illuminated a sign next to the door.
'Guest' huh?
Kagami fumbled to open up the door, but after a minute of struggling the door was finally opened. Kuroko opened the door and walked in. Kagami stayed in the hall and closed the door, locking it from the outside. Kuroko was now trapped in his room. Having nothing better to do, he decided to look around. In the center of the room was a large queen sized bed, with lovely black and gold coverings. The flooring was a beautiful amber colored wood and the area rug was a soft clean white, like sheep's fur. Kuroko opened up what he assumed was the closest but was surprised to see that it was a master bath. Everything was framed in gold. The mirror, the rim of the tub, the sink, even the towels were gold colored. Kuroko walked in and looked in the mirror. His hair was a little disheveled from having to take off his clothes in the doctor's office. He combed his hair with his fingers. As he did so, he noticed that his body was getting close to unappealingly skinny. He needed a decent meal; in fact, he needed to gain some weight if he was going to have eight clients to deal with every day. Kuroko finished combing his hair and walked out of the bathroom. Kuroko looked to the other side of the room and found two wall size mirrors that seemed to move. Kuroko walked over to the mirrors and realized that it was his closet. Kuroko slid the mirror to one side and looked in. the closet already had a few set of clothes hanging up. Kuroko picked a shirt off the hanger and looked at it. It seemed like it would fit him. Kuroko smiled and put the shirt back. Akashi had put some of his old clothes in the guest room for Kuroko to wear. Kuroko figured but didn't want to assume.
Kuroko closed the closet and walked to the bed. He sat down and took off his old black street shoes and tossed them to the side. He then took off his scarf and jacket. Kuroko was left in a black long sleeve, skinny jeans and his cute blue and white polka-dot ankle socks.
Kuroko fell back on the bed and let out a sigh. It felt good to lie on such a soft bed. Kuroko was used to laying on a hard box spring with only a single blanket and pillow. The bed he laid on now was like a cloud, so soft and bouncy. Kuroko curled up to himself and pulled out his cellphone from his back pocket. He opened up the lock and found that Momoi had texted Kuroko an hour ago. Kuroko opened the texts and read them. Momoi had been worried when Kuroko wasn't at his corner or at his apartment. She was asking if he was with a client. Kuroko texted back carefully, not to give away his location.
I got a really rich client today Momoi-san. He wants to keep me for a while. I'll be back soon enough. I will see you later.
Kuroko closed his phone and tossed on top of his jacket next to the bed. He sighed again and closed his eyes. He realized he might as well get some sleep before dinner, after all he's had a long day, and to sleep in a place where there are no rats having a party under his bed was a blessing.
In no time Kuroko had fallen asleep, only to be woken up later on.
