Although you were very aware you were not a psychic, you really didn't see this coming. You were about to kiss, yes kiss, Aomine Daiki; ace of Touou school, fearless delinquent with a bad attitude and an obsession with tits. You of all people were going to kiss him. And then out of nowhere, your elementary school friend, that you have not seen in at least 5 years, Taiga Kagami, ends up in the same restaurant as you and stumbles upon you about to kiss Aomine Daiki.
… Could things get any more embarrassing? Of course it could. This was happening to you after all.
As soon as Kagami saw who you were with, he went ballistic. Like a crazed tiger ready to attack his prey. And it wasn't just him either. Aomine stood out of his chair and you could swear you could see his blood boiling through his tan skin.
"Aomine, you asshole! What the hell are you doing here with [Name]?!"
"Haaah? I don't see how that's any of your fucking business, Taiga," Aomine replied, saying Kagami's name so low you could practically hear him growling. You immediately start to panic. If you remember correctly, Kagami wasn't the type to remember where he was when he was angry and always got into trouble. It seemed that Aomine was the exact same way. Others in the restaurant were startled by the two boy's outbursts and looked our way. You looked around, getting more embarrassed by the second.
"H-Hey, guys… let's calm down, okay?" You stand up from your seat and try your best to get them to relax, but it was to no avail.
"How the hell do you know [Name], anyways? And what were you about to do to her as well, huh?!" Kagami came in closer to Aomine, his hands balled into fists. You could see the vein popping from his temple. "T-Taiga-chan…!" Aomine scoffed and smiled. "Well if you didn't interrupt, I wonder what would have happened~?" That did it. Kagami grabbed Aomine by the collar, which in retaliation grabbed his wrists and soon they were grappling.
"Ahomine! Taiga-chan! Stop this! What are you doing?!" You shriek as you look at them pushing each other against the window, trying their best to overpower the other. The staff started to stir and you could sense that they were about to call the police. 'Ohmygod, ohmygod, these idiots! What do I do… What do I- OH!' You got an idea. What was the best way to cool down two hotheads?
You grabbed yours and Aomine's unfinished drinks and stood on top of the booth seat. You then poured both drinks over their heads, which made them stop immediately. "THINK OF THE TIME AND PLACE, YOU IDIOTS!" You screamed angrily. You threw down the empty cups onto the table and hopped down from your seat. You then grabbed your bag and headed out the door in a huff. You could never come back to this restaurant ever again. Well, you didn't mind that since you'd never eat here, but still! Careful not to make eye contact, you head out the door, leaving two distraught, confused and wet boys watching you leave. They both looked at each other and then released the grip they had on the other. They looked around the restaurant, suddenly reflecting on their actions. The manager of the restaurant came up to them and they started to issue an apology.
When you got home, you were relieved that your mother was not home and went straight to your room. You threw your bag on the floor and then yourself onto your bed and snuggled into your cotton [favorite color] comforter. You closed your eyes and tried your best to fight the oncoming headache that was itching to violate your skull. You don't think you've ever been this mentally and physically exhausted before. Were boys always this hard to handle?
You roll onto your back and look up at the ceiling. Your hand reaches towards your lips and a dark blush stains your cheeks. You were really going to kiss Aomine, weren't you? Your hand flopped to your side and sighed. This didn't really mean you liked him, did it? Wasn't it just you being caught up in the moment? And then there was Taiga...
You rolled onto your side, bringing the tip of your thumb into your mouth, biting it softly. Kagami had really grown since the last time you have seen him. He was so tall and built, you can tell through his uniform and he even still said your name the same way, just like when you were kids. You smiled. You were glad he didn't change. But how did the two know each other anyways? Were they connected by basketball by chance? You knew Kagami had a thing for basketball ever since school days, so it wouldn't be much of a surprise but, the world was small and it was getting smaller each second. You were startled by a low buzzing you heard from across your room.
You sat up slowly and looked at your bag by the door. Was that your phone? You groaned and climbed out of your bed and walked towards your bag. You bent down to open it and fish around for your phone. You flipped it open and read the caller ID. 'Unknown ID?' You were skeptical about answering the call, since you never really answered unknown numbers, but something told you to answer it. You pressed the talk button and raised the phone to your ear. "Hello?"
"[Name]."
You froze for a second, surprised by the voice at the other end but started to relax. "Taiga-chan?"
"Yeah, hey [Name]…" You could hear the nervousness in his voice. It was kind of cute and typical of him. "What do you want, Taiga?" You walked over to your bed and sat at the edge of it, leaning back on a free hand. You heard Kagami sigh as he tried to string his words together. "Look, [Name], I'm really sorry for what happened earlier. I just… I really don't like Aomine. And seeing you with him and well, I kind of lost it," he explained slowly. You nodded along with his words and lay on your back. "You would think I'd be still angry, but I'm not, so don't worry about it anymore." Kagami sighed again but it was a sigh of relief this time. "Hey, how did you get my number anyways?"
"I ran into Kirumi-san on the way back from Maji Burger." You rolled your eyes. Why was Kirumi where it was most convenient? Now you'll never hear the end of it when you go to school tomorrow. You start to rub your temples, dreading for what was to come. "Hey, [Name]. Do you still live at the same address?" You blink and were a little confused. "Yeah, why?"
"Come outside, would you please?" You sit up instantly and bolt to your bedroom window, opening the curtains all the way back. You look out and you see Kagami looking back up at you, smiling.
