I don't own Kuroko No Basuke
Warning: Future Yaoi (boy x boy) rating might go up.
Its been two months since his talk with Kuroko, and four all together, since Kagami was pronounced comatose.
Since his talk with Kuroko, he let himself believe that the red-head would wake up, but in a way it made him more impatient.
Each day he kept begging the red-head to 'please just wake up' and each day he didn't, made his resolve become weak.
Kuroko and Satsuki made an effort to keep his mind busy, but he had never been one to lose himself in anything but basketball. So their efforts were more of an annoyance than helpful.
Sure Kuroko tried to play basketball with him, but his pace was still too slow for Aomine and he usually ended up frustrated with the need to have his idiot there to quarrel and play full-out with. Kuroko tried to get Kise to play with him, but the blond was usually busy with his modeling job or being with his team's captain.
The times he would play with the blonde, although challenging in its own way, was just never enough.
It just was never enough!
Without Kagami the flame was tame; there but barely alive.
He was the only one that made his adrenaline spike and feel like the old him; giddy and childlike.
Most of the time, when those two weren't trying to help, he spent it at the hospital and it was the only way to keep himself from doubting the red-head ever waking up.
Still, he didn't tell the other two, but he was starting to have nightmares.
Or at least he thought he was.
He never remembered his dreams, but he would awake with a racing heart and would be sweating profusely.
He was positive it was about Kagami.
He was all Aomine thought of now.
The longer it took for Kagami to wake up, the longer each passing day felt. He just wanted him to awake.
He wanted to hear his name being said by those lips.
More than anything he wanted to kiss the shit out of him.
Aomine sighed as he made his way to the hospital. He decided to go by himself; needing some space from the other two. Also because he felt as if he was intruding in their time together, he knew for a fact Satsuki wanted to be with Kuroko in a romantic way and their constant worry was delaying that chance.
"Aomine," he heard a soft sweet voice say. Confused, he looked around thinking that it was maybe Satsuki or a girl he use to play around with, what he did not expect was to find a red-headed woman looking at him with a soft smile.
Kagami's mother had come immediately from America after getting the news of what happened to her son. He remembered that day clearly, her face clear with worry and eyes puffed from crying too much. She almost collapsed as the doctor told her the news, but her wrenching sobs stayed with him as he watched her crumble on the floor.
If he was devastated by the news he couldn't even imagine how she must of felt.
Kagami's father had been more stronger, probably to be the rock for his wife, but he was just as devastated only that held it inside.
"Are you going to visit Taiga?" she asked knowingly.
He scratched the back of his head as he nodded a bit shyly. It was odd really. Aomine wasn't exactly the most respectful when it came to adults. He was respectful of his own parents and Satsuki's, but he never cared for others.
It was definitely different when it came to the red-heads parents, especially the mother. Aomine was pretty positive that she knew about his feelings for her son and it made him feel a bit afraid. He had thought she wouldn't like that sort of affection he had for her son, they were both male after all.
"Before that, do you think you can accompany me to grab something to eat? Have you eaten?"
"No, I planned on doing that in the Hospitals cafeteria, but sure I'll accompany you... Um Ma'am."
She chuckled at his attempt at politeness and told him that he didn't have to be so formal.
Surprisingly they went to Maji Burgers and for a second he wondered if she was going to order a stack of burgers like her son, it would explain where Kagami got his endless pit of a stomach, but she ordered a normal portion.
After they ordered and got their food, they sat at a booth that was furthest away from the other customers.
They sat and ate in silence for what seemed like hours, but it was probably because he was nervous of what she might say. Like to stop visiting her son and he really didn't know how he would be able to survive if she forbade him the one thing keeping him sane.
"You know when Kagami decided to move to japan I was completely against it," she said with a fond smile as she stared out the window.
"But he wanted to come so badly and he has always been such a daddy's boy that he was able to convince his father, who then convinced me."
Aomine smirked at the thought of the idiot being a daddy's boy and if he had known this before the accident, he probably would have messed with him.
"Of course I made him learn every house chore before he moved, and he didn't seem to mind, but he is my only child so it was hard to let go."
"It became apparent that he enjoyed living here, especially when you came along," she looked at him and smiled at the shock look he gave her.
"He called you quite a few colorful words, but you became an increasing topic every time he called and for that I wanted to thank you."
"T-thank me? Why?" he asked.
"For making my idiot son happy," she said, her eyes becoming watery.
"But also," she paused as her voice quivered.
"But also for loving my son. I just really wanted to tell you thank you, and if you can, to please continue to love him," she gave him a smile, even though her tears were now overflowing and he noticed how that smile was similar to Kagami's.
He smiled back at her before saying:
"I always will."
I love the thought of Kagami's mother and Aomine having a heart to heart. Cause really what mother wouldn't be happy to see someone so fully devoted to their child? Anyway I hope you guys enjoy the new chapter and thank you to all who commented/followed/favorited makes me happy :).
