Chapter 3: Meeting with the Tsundere Brother

Now it's the time, the time for the practice match against Shuutoku. The day before Riko gave them all a free day to prepare for themselves. Kuroko and Natsumi meet Kagami halfway and went together to Shuutoku. After they reached the front gate of the school they meet the others.

"Ohaiyou." said Kagami slightly grumbling. "Ohaiyou gozaimasu." said Kuroko and Natsumi with a slight bow. The others greeted them an they went the way to the gym. Natsumi was a little giddy because she knew that Midorima Shintarou went to Shuutoku and is in the basketball club. Kuroko who noticed the giddiness of his sister, took her backpack and told her she can ran ahead because they wasn't far from the gym. Natsumi looked at her brother with a bright smile and ran ahead.

"Why did she run?" asked Hyuuga.

Kuroko looked where his sister ran ahead. "She wants to see an old friend."

All of his teammates looked at him quizzically before shrugged it off and continue the way to the gym.

In the meantime Natsumi run full speed to the gym, stopped at the entrance for a moment to look around. After she spotted someone, who she knew and love like a brother, she ran with full speed to him. But nobody noticed her presence until...

"Uff"

Midorima Shintarou was preparing for the match mentally until someone tackled him from behind. He was ready to yell at the person but then he noticed the tiny hands around his waist and looked behind him, only to see a bright smiling Natsumi. Midorima's eyes widen for a moment. "Natsumi-chan?"

Natsumi tightened her grip a little and smiled at Midorima. "Shin-nii-chan I missed you." Midorima overcame the moment of shock before kneeing in front of Natsumi and patted her head with a slight smile.

"Long time no see. Natsumi-chan."

Before Midorima could've said anything further, someone appeared behind him. "What's that Shin-chan? You can be civil if you want." Takao said and laugh.

"Shut up Takao, naturally I can be civil but I don't bother to be it here."

"Wah how mean Shin-chan. Who's that?" Takao looked at Natsumi who hide behind Midorima's legs and had a grip on his jacket looking at him wearily.

"Kuroko Natsumi desu." introduced Natsumi herself silently.

"Kuroko? Ah are you a relative of the Phantom of Seirin?"

"She's his little sister nanodayo~" said Midorima in his usual stoic voice.

"HAH? I thought you can't get along with Kuroko why are you so friendly to his sister?"

"Because I'm his little sister too. Ne, Shin-nii-chan?"

"Ah." said Midorima with a little smile while he looked down at Natsumi.

"Oh Shin-chan has a little sister." cooed Takao before he began to laugh.

"Ne Shin-nii-chan?" She tucked on his jacket. After she's sure she has his attention she asked. "Is he your wife?"

After Takao heard the question he stopped laughing immediately and looked like Midorima shocked at Natsumi. "W-What gave you the idea he's my wife nodayo?" Midorima said after he regained his consciousness.

Now Takao looked at Natsumi with interest and amusement. "Well he's calling you Shin-chan without you protesting. And you told me I'm allowed to call you Shin-nii-chan because I'm like a little sister for you and the only one you would allow to call you by a nickname would be your wife."

Midorima facepalmed because he know that this declaration would blow up in his face someday. Takao meanwhile laughed his ass of because of her statement. After Takao stopped laughing he turned to Natsumi. "Natsumi-chan you get something wrong here, when I'm something to Shin-chan than I would be the husband."

Natsumi looked at Takao with a analysing stare before shooking her head. "You can't be the husband of Shin-nii-chan!"

"And why not?"

"Because you're not manly enough."

The Seirin team stood frozen by the entrance but not only Seirin but Shuutoku also stopped still after they heared the explanation. All in the room looked shocked at Natsumi besides Kuroko, who smiled and Midorima who has a smug smile on his face.

"Pff...Hahaha. You're really funny kid, but you're right. Shin-chan is manlier than I am." said Takao and patted her on the head.

"Natsumi-chan."

Natsumi looked to the entrance and ran to her #1 brother.

"Here." he gave her, her backpack, after she took it, she ran again to Midorima who walked to his bag. After she reached him he turned to her with a green ribbon in his hand. "Ne Shin-nii-chan what is this?" he didn't answer her, he kneeled down to her, took her hairband off and tied her hair with the green ribbon.

"That's your lucky item for the day nodayo!" Midorima told her with a smile. Natsumi brightened at this before she ran to Kuroko.

"Ne Tetsu-nii look it's my lucky item, does it suits me?"

"It looks cute on you." said Kuroko before he nodded to Midorima with graditued. He's relived that Midorima treat Natsumi like he has in Teiko.

"Ne Shin-nii-chan why did you have my lucky item with you when you didn't know that I were coming too?"

"Oha-asa told me to bring it with me today nodayo." said Midorima with a slight blush.

"Really? Oha-asa is awesome when she knows I was coming today." said Natsumi with a sparkling face. All in the room know that was total bullshit what Midorima said but smiled at Natsumis naivity to believe this story.

After the conversation about Oha-asa, Natsumi tucked again at Midorimas jacket, after he turned around. "Shin-nii-chan what is your wife's name?" She looked at him with innocent eyes while Midorima blushed again and kneeled before her.

"Natsumi-chan he's not my wife and..." but before he could finish his speech of denial Takao interruped him.

"Nah~ Shin-chan it's not nice to lie to a kid is it?" he said while he lay a hand on his shoulder. "Takao Kazunari desu, nice to meet you Natsumi-chan." he mockingly saluted to her with two fingers. Midorima gave Takao a death glare but was interuped by Natsumi.

"Ne can I call you Kazu-nii then?"

"You can call me whatever you like Natsumi-chan I don't mind." said Takao with amusement and slight bewilderment.'Are all kids nowadays so trusting?'

"Not all kids." said Kuroko beside him.

"Woah Kuroko since when are you beside me?"

"Since Natsumi-chan and Midorima went to the bench and you should train not to think aloud."

"Heh~ did I said it out loud? Well nevermind what were you about to say?"

"Natsumi-chan only trust people faster because she knows when you have any intentions to hurt her, she have at least six older brothers who would protect her with all their might and wouldn't mind much to use everything they have." said Kuroko with a near unspottable demon grin to Takao, while he observed how Midorima showed Natsumi his lucky item, a stuffed pink bunny.

Takao meanwhile took a step further from Kuroko with both hands before his chest in defense. "I wouldn't even dream to hurt Natsumi-chan because she's really a sweet kid."

Kuroko nodded and walked to Midorima and Natsumi to discus where Natsumi want's to sit during the match. In the end Natsumi sat on the banch by Seirin but Midorima told her to take care of his lucky item during the game and so it comes that she sat there with a pink bunny in her arms and observed the game.
