A/N: Heres another chapter... ^^;; Ehehe... hope you enjoy~
Kise couldn't stop himself from picking up the phone as soon as he got home from training that night. His eyes blaze with determination as he dials Aomine's number. After a few rings, the latter picks up.
"Who's this?" An annoyed voice growled immediately as a light sheath of static filled the receiver.
"Aominecchi! Are you always this threatening when you pick up the phone?" Kise's lively voice responds and he sweatdrops.
"Oh it's you." The blue haired boy deadpans,
"I'm hurt, Aominecchi!" Kise fake sobs,
"So what are you calling for?" Aomine grumbles, rolling his eyes.
"About the upcoming game of course? You're ready right? This time I'll beat you, Aominecchi!" Kise shouts into the phone line before clicking the end call button.
Aomine stares at the phone in shock. No matter how playful the blonde usually was, he had seemed serious with the last statement. He smiles for the first time in ages. He stares at the phone, trying to remember Kise's number, it had been a while since he last called the other.
Kise clenches his fists, he had chickened out again. He mentally bashes himself, and flops onto his bed, hugging his pillow.
"Sorry, Aominecchi..." He mumbles into the fabric.
For a while he stares his bedsheets, thinking about what he would say if he called Aomine again. He bites his lips as he tries to come up with something suitable.
"Aominecchi, I love you." No, that would be too straight forward.
"Aominecchi, Make me yours." No, that sounded downright weird- he didn't want to scare the other away.
"Aominecchi, Let's play basketball together!" He smiled at that phrase, but something in the back of his mind told him that he would never be able to use it.
"Aominecchi... I-"
Kise jumps as the sudden ring of the phone disrupts his sentence. He stares at the caller ID for a while, stunned, before scrambling to pick it up.
"Aominecchi?!"
"Oi, Kise, meet me at the basketball courts near Teikou as soon as possible. You know, the one we always used to go to together." He hears through the receiver.
Before he has time to answer, the call cuts off. Kise frowns at the noise and cuts of the beeping sounds. He shoves his mobile and a few coins into his pocket before dashing out the door towards the meeting point. He could barely hear his mother calling after him, asking him where he was off two at such a late time.
Aomine sighs as he reaches the basketball courts, eyes scanning for that familiar mop of blonde hair that belonged to Kise. He pushes open the black wire door that he had nearly forgotten after graduating Teikou, and looks around. The place had been taken over by flowers, or rather, yellow daisies which grew through the black wire of the fence surrounding the desolated courts. And the pinkish orange hue of the sunset only seemed to magnify their beauty.
"Aominecchi!" He hears behind him, and he turns around immediately.
Somehow, he had missed hearing that voice, and the faintest hint of a grin appears on his face. Before he could respond, a basketball hurls towards him.
"Lets play basketball together! I figured that you were stupid enough to not bring a basketball so I brought one." Kise beams.
"Once..." Aomine sighed, not knowing how to reject Kise since he was the one who brought the two of them to those courts in the first place. "I want to talk about... shit... after"
"Okay, Aominecchi." His enthusiasm becomes more toned down, but the eagerness in his eyes were obvious.
"So what did you want to talk about, Aominecchi?" Kise asks, after all debate about who won the one on one had dissipated.
"Dunno... Maybe about the game?" Aomine responds, rolling his eyes, though in truth, he really didn't know what he called Kise there to talk about.
"Eh? What about it?" Kise frowns, flicking some grass at Aomine.
"Well it is this tomorrow... And it is quite important... Touou verses Kaijou." he chuckles before continuing, "There'll be a lot of people there, don't ya think?"
"Well duh, its a battle between us two, isn't it obvious, Aominecchi?"
"I guess..."
For a long moment, there is nothing but silence as the two members of the Generation of Miracles think through what had just been said.
"Well... If that was all Aominecchi had to say, I'll be leaving now." Kise says softly, making a move to get up.
Aomine grabs him immediately, "Wait, I..." But the blue haired boy wasn't sure how to finish.
"I..." He is at loss for words, and his eyebrows furrow, trying to think of something to say.
Kise tilts his head inquisitively at Aomine, waiting for something to be said. But instead of continuing, Aomine presses his lips against Kise's, shocked by his own action. The two of them are frozen for a while before Kise quickly jolts away. He stares at the other in shock before quickly sprinting away.
"Stupid Aominecchi, playing with my emotions like that." Genuine tears are carried away by the wind as he runs. He tries to wipe the salty water away with the back of his wrist, but they kept gathering. Silent sobs shook his body and he finally slows to a stop, curling up into a ball on the side of the road.
As he stares after Kise's retreating figure, Aomine is frozen in place. He swallows the hatred towards himself and slumps back down. He runs his fingers tentatively through the yellow daisies growing behind him. Before long, he had fallen asleep in the comfort of those yellow flowers on the other side of the fence. He had fallen asleep right there on the basketball courts, right there where he had kissed Kise for the first time.
A/N: Well... R+R? ^w^
