Kise's desire.

"Hey Kise!" Aomine said in a rather exuberant tone of voice.

"Oi Aomine!" Kise responded quickly, sizing up Aomine's lean, but muscular stature, giving a slight smile after he spoke.

The two gazed each other, each saw the want, the need, the craving in their eyes. Silence drifted over the atmosphere of the conversation, all was quiet, the room was warm, but humid, the lights were dim, barely illuminated. Despite Kise and Aomine's relationship with each other as equals, they seemed passionate, somewhat reluctant to express their feelings, which is what keeps them distant at times.

To break the silence Kise averted his eyes to a random spot in the room, a shadowy corner, foreseeing his fear of them two leaving. Aomine glared to the ceiling, foreseeing the dim light that he sees when Kise comes into his life, for Aomine has felt sad and alone for many years, and his blonde friend, brought light into it. The two chuckled quite softly, as two lovers do during a comforting time, Kise then spoke to break the silence.

"Hey Aomine.. say, want some tea? Kise looked at Aomine with a fearful gut feeling of being rejected, and his eyes screamed that he was worried.

"U-Uh, yeah sure!" He gave a reassuring smile, and a pat on the shoulder to Kise, knowing his friend standing in front of him, was looking for a yes.

As Kise prepared the tea in the kitchen, Aomine snooped around Kise's room, hoping to find something important, something he could find happiness in, a journal. Minutes pass, then a red journal revealed itself to Aomine under the bed, he immediately grabbed it and opened in, in awe he saw the words, "There was this guy.." at the written across a page in the left hand corner, along with some tear stains tainting the page, Aomine read quietly to himself for he did not want Kise to hear.

"There was this guy, he seems like a monster on the court, a beast if you will, but off court? He's.. really sweet and suddenly these past few days, it's been fun, we've been on good terms for awhile, I.. love him." Aomine let out a soft giggle then stunned at the next words he read, "I think, I like him." As the last lines were read, Aomine directed his eyes towards the door, for he heard footsteps and a knock on the door.

"Hey Ao-" Kise shocked, holding two cups of green tea, his hands shivering, eyes wide, mouth gaping at the sight of his friend, his wanna-be lover, reading his deepest secrets right in front of him.

"I-.." With no words able to form correctly from Aomine's mouth, he slowly closed the journal, focused on Kise.

"You.. Yo-" With his sentenced stopped, Kise's eyes rolled back, the cups fell and shattered to the ground, his body fell helplessly to the ground.

"Kise!" Aomine shouted, using his speed to countervail Kise's sudden fainting, he caught him just in time, the blonde haired admirer Aomine never thought of as more than just a friend, lays in his lap.

"I love you too.." The words whispered from Aomine shocked himself, filled him with a sense of pleasure, a meaningful time in his life, something he felt good for, something that made him feel, alive.
