Dangerous Love

Day Twenty-Seven: Sarcasm


After dinner and saying goodbye to those who were leaving, Kasamatsu went up to his room. He closed the door behind him and peered around his new bedroom. He still had boxes of his old things to go through but the teen figured he would do that later. Now, he wanted to do something else.

Kasamatsu sat at his new desk and opened up his old laptop. There was a brand new desktop computer stationed under his desk and a monitor but Kasamatsu had yet to touch it. He was still happy with his old laptop. The noirette opened it and clicked on the browser. He went on google and stared at the page, his mind wandering back to before they ate dinner.

'What did Kuroko-san call them...? Something along the lines of... cava-… cavalieri di… guerra?' The steel-blue eyed teen thought. He focused back on the search bar and typed those three words in. The first thing he found was that when translated from Italian, it meant the "Knights of War". Kasamatsu swallowed the lump in his throat. 'How did dad get caught up with such a group?' He wondered, chewing on his lip, deep in thought.

The teenager continued his search on the mafia family that was after that USB. All together, there was not much information on them but Kasamatsu managed to find some things out. They were ruthless and did not hesitate to take care of their enemies. While they respected their allies, if they were betrayed... Kasamatsu assumed the result was what they did to his father.

A soft knock on the door made the noirette jump. He closed his laptop and spun around in his chair just as the door opened. The steel-blue eyed teen relaxed when he saw that it was only Luca. "Hey," He greeted, staring at the chocolate-brown haired man. "What's up?"

"I just wanted to return this to you. Properly." Luca handed Kasamatsu the USB. The teen accepted the small device and stared at it. "Takeru entrusted that to you, so I think you need to hold onto it."

"Thanks..." Kasamatsu replied. He wrapped his fingers around it and held onto it. He glanced back at Luca's other hand, which was holding his old bag from before. "You still have that?" The teen asked, amused. His bag was scuffed with dirt and slightly ratty from its long, dangerous journey. He assumed it was gone ever since Luca gave the leader of the Knights of War the fake USB drive.

The hitman handed him the bag. "Yeah." Luca responded, smirking. "There is still some valuable things in there." He told the teenager.

Kasamatsu raised his eyebrow and unzipped it. He found that same hunk of money that has been there since he first left with Aomine. "I may have forgot about this..." The noirette admitted, dropping it back in his bag. He stood up and put his bag on the bed. "I'll have to give that to my mom later." Kasamatsu made a note in his mind.

"Just so you know, Aomine and I are going out tomorrow." Luca announced after a brief moment of silence. Kasamatsu looked at him, eyes narrowed.

"Why? Does it have something to do with those Knight-guys?" The teenager asked, his fingers squeezing the fabric of his shorts. "Is-... Could I help?"

Luca gave him a soft smile. "It's all right, Yukio. You did your part, you got your family back." The hitman told the teenager. "Besides, Aomine and I can handle those bastards."

"Gee, thanks." Kasamatsu quipped, his voice laced with sarcasm. He crossed his arms defiantly, "I'm not some weak kid, you already know that since we went to the island."

"I know," Luca nodded. "But you need to stay here and watch over your family for us, okay?"

Kasamatsu rolled his eyes and fell back onto his bed. He stared at the ceiling. "Fine..." The eighteen-year old eventually gave in to Luca's wishes. He sat up quickly, his steel-blue eyes narrowed at Luca. "Just don't get hurt." He huffed.

Luca sighed, "I never get hurt, Yukio." He teased. "But I'll be sure to pass on the message to Aomine." The brunette gave the teen a pat on the shoulder.

Kasamatsu sputtered. "I- I don't care if that idiot gets hurt!" He objected, turning his head away from Luca. "Aomine's just an idiot." He realized he called him an idiot twice already but Kasamatsu did not care. It was true.

"Hmph." The noirette huffed.

xXx

The next day, Kasamatsu woke up to the sound of birds chirping. Streaks of sunlight streamed in through his curtains, illuminating parts of the floor. The teenager sat up slowly, still feeling tired and groggy. He yawned and rubbed his eyes. Kasamatsu got out of bed and went downstairs where he found his mother in the kitchen. He smiled.

It was like before the horrible turn of events. His mother cooking breakfast for everyone while Naoki lay in his bassinet. Yuuta hovered over their youngest brother, playing with him while Kazuki sat at the table, catching up on his homework. The only difference now was that Kazuki was reading a book.

Kasamatsu sat next to his brother, tilting his head to look at the cover of the book. "Where did you get that one?" He wondered, only because he knew Kazuki never owned it beforehand.

"I was exploring last night and it turns out we have a huge library. It's kinda like a study, too."

"Speaking of study," Aiko glanced at her boys after she flipped a pancake. "You all need to get back to school." She told the three. "Akashi-san told me to keep you all at home for the time being so that means home-schooling for Yuuta and online school for Kazuki and Yukio."

"Yay!" Yuuta cheered. He paused, shoulders drooping. "Wait, if I stay at home all day I'll never see my friends again!" The four-year old gasped. He pouted.

"It's just for a while, Yuuta." Kasamatsu told his kid brother. "I'm sure you'll be able to go to first grade in a year or so."

"Oh... Okay." Yuuta grinned.

Kazuki looked up from his book. "Oh yeah, those guys already went out." He told Kasamatsu, eyeing his older brother. "The ganguro said something about being back in a couple days or something."

"Kazu." Aiko warned. "That isn't nice."

"Whatever." Kazuki replied with a roll of his eyes. "I just wanted to make sure Yuki-nii knew, that's all." The fourteen-year old stood up from the table and stretched. He walked to the cupboards and rummaged around before he managed to find the plates. He began to set the table as their mother finished cooking.

"To be fair, Luca already told me they were heading out." Kasamatsu mumbled. 'Although he left out the part of being gone for a couple days.' The teenager shrugged and helped his mother dish out the food.

Aomine glanced over to the brunette, watching as he typed away on his laptop. "Did you get anything?" The royal blue eyed man asked after a few seconds.

"Nothing yet." Luca replied, eyes scanning the screen as he continued to hack. "The thing about Vincenzo is that he does not want to be found so easily." The emerald eyed man informed. He turned away from his laptop, staring at Aomine.

"But luckily for me, I know where one of his base's are in Tokyo." Luca said, a smug look on his face. He shut the laptop and stood up, tucking it back into his messenger bag.

"So do you want to start there?" Aomine asked as he pulled a knife from its sheath. He stared at his reflection on the sharp blade. He tilted it, imagining it stained with blood. Aomine put it back and focused his attention back on Luca. "We need to finish this once and for all."
