Time to be together


"Ah, Good Morning Kagami-kun…" Kuroko greets with a plate of food in his hand, heading towards the dining table. "Uh… Good Morning…" Kagami greets back, baffled. Is he… could it be…

"That's rare… you usually wake up earlier than me…" the smaller teen continues, now neatly seated in front of the table. "Well… I actually woke up earlier but…" I had to freaking think of a hell lot of stuff to say to you once I see you damn it! And now you're planning on acting that nothing freaking happened last night? "Um… Kuroko, about last night…" Kagami tries to start the conversation, interrupted by the sullen voice. "Sorry…"

Huh?

"…I did it because you were annoying; I was just trying to shut to you up"

What? What is that suppose to mean?

"and…" Kuroko pauses, it was a long pause.

"Wha-" Kagami tries to ask.

"It's nothing… " Kuroko replies, or rather continues, looking at kagami straight in the eyes. "Let's eat" he gestures Kagami to take a seat. What was that? That didn't seem like nothing at all! It was definitely something! He's hiding something from me… also… why the hell is my plate all the way over there?

Said plate was placed one seat away from where Kuroko was, normally they'd just eat in front of each other. They ate quietly, kagami sometimes glancing at the Kuroko, getting caught each time. "Does it taste bad? Sorry, I'm not as good as you…" he tries to apologize, sounding rather sarcastic with his normal tone. "Not that… " The red head replies, switching his gaze from Kuroko to the food, he thinks. How can he act normal after that kiss just last night and damn do I want to remind him that HE was the one who did it! "It's good… normal"

"good…" Kuroko smiles, his normal attitude completely unfazed by what happened last night. It really is cruelly unfair if you're the only one who's in love… Kagami comically cries inside.


"TAIGAAA~!"

"Uwah! Ale-" Kagami tries to dodge, failing miserably. In the end, the beautiful foreigner was able to steal another kiss from the tiger. "I'm so happy! You really came back here! Why didn't you tell me before?" Alex questions, cheeks puffed, unhappy about being last to hear the news among Kagami's friends. "Didn't I tell you to stop doing that?" Kagami scolds, for who knows how many times he had, glancing over Kuroko, he seemed already used to it. "Oh, it's just a greeting! Nice to see you again too, Kuroko-kun!" Alex lets go of Kagami, making her way to Kuroko.

"Oi! We didn't come here for greetings you know!" Kagami blocks her trainer. "Huh? Of course I know that!" The blonde states, very aware of why the duo visited, she turns to head to the vacant court. The three were at a public park, one can count all the people currently present with their hands, and it was a perfect chance for some practice. "Though I'm really not sure what to teach you two anymore, after all you've showed me…" Alex admits, grabbing a ball. "…how about we have a match with the others here!" she declares, four more people appearing behind her. "A three on three... against Alex-san" kuroko whispers, glancing over Kagami with somewhat uneasy eyes, being caught by Alex and quickly turning away. "Interesting… Bring it on!" Kagami, as always, accepts the challenge.


In the end… they lost, it wasn't a one sided game where the other was completely overpowered by its opposing team, both teams were exquisite, gaining quite an audience on the breath taking match. They admit, Alex was definitely a very good player, the ones she had backing her up were very skilled as well. The other player the duo had turned out very reliable as well, adapting quickly with Kuroko's shadow play. "That felt gooood~" Alex stretches, playing in a match that really gets even the audience going definitely felt good, as a former player. "We should do this more often, Taiga!"

"…"

"Taiga?" Alex questions, about not receiving a reply.

"…huh? Nothing" Kagami finally answers, unfortunately out of topic.

"Something happened?" the blonde asks, worried for her student; she comes closer and looks at where the taller teen was gazing at. "Yeah" her student replies, not moving his eyes away from said 'something'. "You know…" Alex starts. "I've been hearing a lot but I didn't expect it to be true, I know how much you hold your friends dear but… is this one probably different?"

"It's one-sided…"

"Can you honestly say that after this match?" alex comments, patting the tiger gently in the back and silently waving a hand goodbye. It was true, they could have won. The reason that they lost was because Kuroko seemed distracted, his usually play was completely off. It was obvious to kagami since he has played with him for three years, it must have been quite a huge distraction to throw Kuroko off the game though. Kuroko was now looking at his hands; they were shaking, looking more sullen than usual. "Here…" Kagami approaches, two pocari drinks in his hand, giving one to Kuroko. "Ah, thank you very much" Kuroko accepts, grabbing the drink and gently placing it on his cheek to cool himself.

"You said… it was nothing" Kagami states, opening his drink "it's definitely something if it can distract in you in a game" he takes a sip, not looking at Kuroko "and I have to be stupid not to notice that something's wrong with you after all we've been through."

"It's weird…" Kuroko tries to explain. "I… can't seem to pass the ball to you properly…"

"It doesn't take a genius to notice that from earlier…"

"Hey… Kagami-kun can you feel it?" Kuroko asks, now looking straight at the red head.

"Feel what?" Kagami tries to act normal, leaving his face comically stern.

"My feelings…"

"There you go again with the weird questions…" Kagami, turns from the smaller teen, placing his drink down on a bench and walking towards a ball. Naïve… as usual

"It's an important question for me. Like, trust… "

"Trust?" kagami asks, taking a small peak of the sky blue eyes before turning back again.

"Like how you can feel how much the person trusts you when they pass you the ball… that they're very sure that you can get it in the goal… that they believe in you enough to entrust their dreams in your strength of winning a match" Kuroko explains.

"Why do I feel like you've said that before…" Kagami dictates, ball now in hand.

"…"

"Here…" kagami passes the ball to Kuroko. "Did you feel anything?" Kagami's face still very comically stern, holding back whatever emotion he was feeling.

"…" Kurko stays quiet. Looking at the ball in his hands and back at Kagami he speaks "that… that pass had nothing in it…" he states, wondering if he got it right.

"yeah… I guess, now pass it back…" the taller man orders, putting out his hands, ready for the ball.

"I don't want to…" Kuroko stares at the ball.

"…why"

"It's weird"

"…"

"I don't know why… but…"

"…but?"

"I'm… uneasy… about letting kagami-kun feel it… whatever 'it' is…"

"…"

"It's weird…"
