But at some point it got too hot for me and I got out of the tub. Shortly I showered with cold water, before I dried myself off and I tied a towel around my waist.

I opened the door and smelled something. But I smelled no fire, only food and it smelled pretty good.

,,Aomine?" I yelled through the half apartment. I didn't want him to see me like that.

,,Good is almost done." He only yelled back and it sound far away, so I dared to come out of the bath and quickly walked into my room.

I immediately closed the door and dressed myself as fast as I could. Aomine apparently didn't know how to cook, when he walked into a bedroom, which I already had experienced.

I quickly pulled my underwear on and my shirt, when the door opened.

,,Bakagami, are you ready?" He just came in and I sighed loudly.

Of course he just came in without knocking.

,,In a minute. I just want to get in my pants." I sighed again, but Aomine just grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the bedroom.

,,You are wearing something. Don't act like a girl." He said and I blushed again. Normally I wouldn't care, but this was Aomine.

SoI let him pull me into the living room, where I stopped a bit surprised.

Aomine had really managed to cook. And he even set the table.

,,Woow." I said stunned. ,,That looks good."

,,I know." He grinned arrogantly and pulled me to the table.

,,If you can cook yourself, why do I have to cook all the time?" I sighed, when we both sat down.

,,Is that a joke?" Laughed Aomine. ,,Because your food tastes a hundred time better."

Again I blushed and quickly look down at the plate, before he could see it.

The food didn't look perfect. Some food needed a few minutes more, while some other food was already slightly burned, but it didn't taste bad.

And I was incredibly happy and loved it, that he had made it.

If someone would have told me last week, that Aomine would cook for me, I would die from laughing.

Although the same would probably happen, if someone had told me, that I would develop feelings for him.

Again I sighed louder than I really wanted.

,,What's wrong? Isn't it good?" Asked Aomine now worried.

,,No no! It tastes great!" I smiled sadly at him.

That's what I didn't want to happen.

We had a great day together and had a lot of fun, but my thoughts were somewhere else.

I probably acted really rude towards him, but I couldn't help it.

,,So? What's wrong with you then?"

,,It has nothing to do with you." I smiled at him.

,,I'm just have something in my mind." I sighed and stood up. ,,Sorry, I need a moment for me." I said with bowed head and went out onto my balcony.

I felt, how Aomine's eyes followed me, what made me even sadder.

Outside und I exhaled loudly.

Since Kuroko had said these things to me, all I could thing about was Aomine.

I wish it wasn't like that, but I had to accept it.

I liked Aomine.

I wish I could hide it and just be friends with him, just like the last few days.

I sighed again and looked over the rooftops.

I wondered what I should do now.

Should I say it Aomine?

Should I talk about it with someone?

And more importantly: Should I go on distance?

But just the simple thought of it let my chest hurt.

,,Kagami?" I heard suddenly heard the balcony door open and how Aomine walked out.

,,Is really everything okay?" He walked now beside me and also looked over the city's rooftops.

I sighed again. ,,Sorry... I'm just thinking too much."

,,You can think?" Aomine grinned now at me with his arrogant and teasing smile and I really don't know why, but I had to start laughing.

,,Asshole." I hit him gently against his arm and smiled at him.

,,I like you better like that." He smiled at me, whereupon I blushed again.

We both looked forward again and were silent. No one said a word, but the mood was not bad.

It somehow felt great to be here with him, like we were actually pretty close right know and understand each other, even without words.


,,Don't be such a bitch!" Said Aomine annoyed at the other side of the telephone call.

But I just sighed again.

Two weeks had past, since we last saw each other.

He had asked me several times, but I always said, that I had no time and even aswered shortly to his massages.

I just hoped that my feelings would disappear, when he didn't have much contact, but that didn't work.

I missed this arrogant asshole.

,,Normally you never miss a basketball match!"

,,But I really-" I wanted to say an excuse, but Aomine didn't let me finish talking.

,,Murasakibara and one of his team are also there."

,,Tatsuya?" I asked immediately.

,,I-" Said Aomine a bit surprised about my answer, but this time it was me, who stopped him.

,,All right! I'm in. See you there." I ended the call happy.

I hadn't seen Tatsuya in forever and always learned something new.

I got ready and went to the basketball court, where Aomine, Murasakibara und Tatsuya already had a little match.

,,Oi! Bakagami." Yelled Aomine, when he saw me.

,,Hey!" I waved at them and put my stuff on the side.

,,Finally!" He smiled at me and threw the ball at me.

,,Sorry, something retarded me." I smiled and threw the ball at him, when I stopped in front of them.

,,Tatsuya." I smiled and walked to the black haired boy.

,,Taiga." He smiled at me and ruffled through my hair. ,,Have you grown taller again?"

,,Maybe a little." I laughed happily. I had really missed spending time with him. I just noticed that.

Suddenly I felt a pain in my back and turned around. ,,Ouch." I said painful and saw Aomine, how he caught the ball again.

,,Hey! What the fuck are you doing?" I asked him angry. This asshole had actually thrown the ball at me.

,,If you are finally finished with flirting, we can start playing now." He said annoyed and let the ball circling on his finger.

,,What's wrong, Ahomine? Jealous?" I grinned provocatively.

,,Tz!" He hissed me only and threw the ball in the basket in front of him.

,,What's wrong? Is he really jealous?" It came now from Murasakibara. Tatsuya and I looked at each other briefly before we started to laugh.

,,I'm not." Bleated Aomine when he came back with the ball.

,,I just thought, that we are here to play basketball, that's all." He said arrogant and now looked at me.

,,Yeah, that's the Aomine I know." I sighed only but had to smile.

The Aomine, who had cooked for me and was worried about me was great, but that was the Aomine in which I fell in love.

,,Oi, what's that supposed to mean?" He asked me immediately.

But I just laughed and waved him off.

,,So who plays with whom?" I smiled now in the round.

,,You're asking that?" Aomine now walked now beside me and put his arm around me. ,,We're gonna destroy them." He looked now at Tatsuya.

I looked skeptical at him. Something about his eyes were different, but I couldn't say what.

,,What? That-" Wanted Murasakibara complain, but Tatsuya interrupted him.

,,No problem."

,,What? But-"

,,Don't worry. Together we will defeat these two easily." Smiled the black-haired at his teammate, who nodded.

,,Good! Then let's get started." Grinned Aomine now and threw the ball in the air, while Murasakibara and I jumped to reach the ball.

,,I can't anymore." I said breathlessly and sat down on the ground.

,,I'm totally exhausted." Sat Tatsuya down beside me, breathing heavily.

I don't know how long we played, but it seemed to me like hours. I barely had the power to stand on my legs, while Aomine and Murasakibara looked still pretty fit.

Aomine tossed alone a few baskets and Murasakibara was gone to buy sweets.

,,They are monsters." I sighed and looked at Aomine.

You could say about Aomine what you wanted, but the way he threw his baskets was special and it never got boring to watch him.

,,Say Taiga, what is actually between you two?" Cracked me Tatsuya suddenly out of my thoughts.

,,What do you mean?" I looked at him, confused.

,,Since when are you two friend and understand each other so good, that Aomine gets jealous?" He grinned.

,,Oh you mean about earlier." I was slightly red and laughed. I thought, that he had noticed something.

,,That was just a joke."

,,Oh really? Aomine's eyes told me something quite different."

,,What? Do you-" I wanted to ask him, but I a voice I know jolted us out of our conversation and we both looked aside.

,,Tatsuya! Taiga!" Beamed a blond woman and walked towards us.

,,Do you two know that chick?" Walked Aomine now to us.

,,Yeah." Sighed Tatsuya and I nodded.

,,She is our master." I explained.

,,What? Master?" Looked Aomine surprised and we both nodded.

Alex stopped in front of us and smiled.

,,Hallo Alex." Smiled Tatsuya.

,,Alex." I smiled also at here. Normally I would stand up, but my legs had no power anymore.

,,Oh and you have to be the famous Aomine Daiki, aren't you?" Smiled Alex.

,,Yeah, I am." Looked Aomine skeptically at her.

,,I am Alexandra Garcia. I have seen a few games from you. You're really good." She smiled at him.

,,Tz, of course I am." He grinned arrogantly again and I just sighed.

Yeah, that was the idiot, in which I had to fall in love.

,,Aomine, you should not-" I wanted to warn him, that he should better not go so close to Alex. but it was too late.

Alex came closer to him and kissed him.

,,What the-" Pressed Aomine her away and brushed his mouth up with his arm.

,,Alex has a kissing bug." I laughed and Tatsuya had to grinned easy.

Aomine walked behind me and sat down to hide behind me like a little girl.

,,What's wrong with you? It's just a little kiss!" Asked Alex completely innocent.

,,Not everyone wants that." Smile Tatsuya about the reaction of Aomine and took his water bottle in his hand.

,,He's right." I agreed and also drank some water from my bottle.

,,Taiga! I missed you!" He Alex now knelt before me and came dangerously close to me, but before I could press her away, intervened Aomine.

,,Forget it, Lady!" He put his hand on my mouth.

,,That's what I meant." Laughed Tatsuya at me, while Aomine and Alex began to argue, while Aomine even more pressed me against him.

I didn't know if he did it on purpose, but actually I did not care. I enjoyed the proximity to him.

Also this time he radiated heat and I loved it.


,,Why exactly are you here?" I asked my counterpart skeptical.

,,You said, that you would go shopping today." Looked Aomine now skeptical at me.

,,Yes, I will but why are YOU here?"

,,Aomine-kun?" Asked now even Kuroko surprised, when he suddenly appeared beside me.

I screamed surprised, when he suddenly stood beside me.

,,Kuroko!" I shouted mad at him, but he ignored me.

,,What are you doing here, Aomine-kun?" He only asked him.

,,I'm here to pick Bakagami up.

,,What?" I asked surprised, but before I could disagree, grabbed Aomine my arm and pulled me after him.

,,See ya, Tetsu." He wave at Kuroko again, before we turned around the corner and he let go of me.

I stopped shortly and also he stopped.

,,You're serious?" I asked skeptically.

,,What?" He asked me arrogant.

,,Do you really want to go shopping with me for the Party.

,,Of course. Otherwise I wouldn't have pick you up from school, Baka!" Grinned Aomine and started walking again.

,,Asshole." I sighed, but followed him.

I never thought, that he would come to my school to pick me up.

Yesterday, I had texted him, that I would go shopping today after school for Kuroko's party, but I never expected, that he suddenly would pick me up and come with me.

But if I'm honest, I found it incredibly sweet.

And some help was never bad.

The party was tomorrow and I still needed to prepare a lot.


Annoyed I sighed and tried to make some space for me.

Once again it was the best time to take the train. I hated it, when so many people were in one room.

Although I was big and strong, but in situation like that it didn't reslly help much.

What was even more distressed me was, that Aomine was incredibly close to me. He could not help it, after all, the train was full, but it was uncomfortable. I didn't want to be so close to him. My heart almost jumps out of my chest, so quickly raced it there.

,,Oi!" I heard him talking and looked at him.

,,What?"

,,Why-" He wanted to ask me something, when he was suddenly pushed from behind and came even closer to me. He quickly drew his hand behind me, so that he couldn't fall onto me.

Great, now he was even closer.

I quickly looked away, hoping that my face wasn't as red as a tomato.

,,Oi!" Said Aomine now a little louder and I looked at him again.

,,Why are you avoiding me?" He asked me suddenly and I opened my mouth, surprised.

Had he really just ask me that?

,,W-Where did you get such an idea?" I asked still surprised.

,,You answer hardly on my texts and you are always saying no to an one-on-one." Looked Aomine me now deep into my eyes.

,,What are you talking about?" I tried to overplay my nervousness with laughing. ,,We played last week against Tatsuya and Murasakibara."

,,You know exactly what I'm talking about!" Remained Aomine steadfast.

Again, I sighed loudly.

,,I told you, that I have a lot to think about lately, that's all."

,,Oh, come on!" He got a little angry. ,,That can't be everything!"

,,Aomine please." I sighed again.

I didn't want to have that talk and the worst was, that I couldn't go away.

,,Okay fine. If you don't want to talk about it. It's your business."

,,Tanks." I smiled sadly at him.

,,But tell me one thing." He looked now seriously at me and came a bit closer.

,,W-What." I gulped.

,,If I did something to you, you have to tell me." Firdt I looked speechless at him, before I started laughing loudly.

,,Oi, what's so funny!" Asked Aomine immediately and the people around us looked funny at me, but I couldn't stop laughing.

He could be such an idiot sometimes.

,,Hey! If-" He wanted to complain again, but stopped, when I put my hand on his shoulder.

,,Aomine, you're such an idiot." I said with a big grin on his face, before I laughed again.

,,Hey Bakagami! I'm serious-" But again I interrupted him.

,,This has nothing to do with you. Don't worry." I smiled at him

,,Are you sure?" He asked skeptical.

,,Yes." I smiled again.

,,Good. Because I don't like saying it, but I started liking you." Got Aomine a bit red and turned around.

,,Wait, what?" I also blushed, trying to turn Aomine back around, but he refused.

Had I just heard right?

Had Aomine said that he likes me?

,,That's our stadion! We have to get out of here." He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the train, when the doors opened.

,,I like you too..." I stammered, but Aomine looked with bis eyes at me, before he turned around again and we both blushed even more.

I tried shortly to pull my hand away, since it was kind of embarrassing, but Aomine only increased the pressure and I stopped it.

The stadion was full, so nobody would notice it anyway. Even if someone would notice it, I didn't mind.

I was so happy and was kind of afraid, that my heart would stop any minute.


My thoughts were like blown away.

I just wanted to get out and wanted to bring continents between us, but that was forgotten.

Of course I had somewhere a few jitters, that something might happen and that he would notice my feelings, but I repressed these thoughts-

Aomine himself had said, that he would like me. Of course I knew that he meant it in another way, friendly and not like I like him.

But I was so happy that he liked me, that I didn´t mind that at the moment.

We were silently walking through the station and for a moment I was afraid, that it would remain so weird between us, but on the way to the shop everything had relaxed.

We fooled around, insulted us, exactly as before and I was happy. And if I was honest, I had missed that.

The last days I was really afraid, that it would never be like that again, but that was over now.

Aomine sat down in the shopping cart, but I dumped the cart just slightly, whereupon he fell screaming out of the cart.

The people in the store looked annoyed at us, but I laughed, when Aomine slowly got up from the floor and looked angry at me.

,, Sorry, but I'm not your Mam and you're not my child." I grinned and walked with the shopping cart past him.

,,Tz." He hissed angry and walked offended after me. ,,You at least hadn´t to push me out." He muttered.

,,Stop bitching." I laughed again.

The people always thing, that Aomine is arrogant and an asshole and sure, is that, but most of the time is like a little kid.

And I loved that about him.

There weren´t many people, who knows this side of him and it meant a lot to me, that I was one of it.

,,Tz, whatever." He nudged me in the side.

,,Ouch." I looked angry at him, but forgot my anger quickly, when he smiled at me.

,,Idiot." I sighed and we walked side by side through the store.

,,So what do we need?" He looked at me.

,,Moment..." I searched in my pocket after the note I had written yesterday and handed it Aomine.

,,So much? You wnat to buy the whole store?" He looked a bit shocked at me. The list was quite long.

,,20 people are coming, of course we need more than usual, idiot." I laughed and nudged him slightly into his side.

Aomine just looked at me with his arrogant look and I had to laugh again.

,,Don´t be like that and bring me the eggs. I´m looking for the meat." I grinned and went on with the cart.

Meanwhile I had already such a good mood, that I even started to whistel, when I took the meat in my hand to look at it.

It was for Kuroko´s birthday Party and I wanted to do something special, so I also wanted the better meat.

,,Oi, Bakagami." Aomine interrupted me and I turned around to him.

,,Aho?" I asked.

,,What eggs do you want?" He asked me and showed me two egg cartons in his hand.

,,The quail eggs." I laughed and turned around again. I also started whistling again.

But Aomine just looked confused at the cartons.

Satisfied, I put the meat into the cart and turned back to him, but he was still standing there, looking at the boxes, confused.

,,The blue box, you idiot." I started to laugh, whereupon he only turned angry around.

,,Shut up, Bakagami." He looked at me but I only laughed.

I was wrong. He was worse than a child. He couldn´t even give me the right eggs.

,,Yeah Yeah, Ahomine." I grinned and took the box, put it in the cart and started walking away.

,,Tz." I heard him, before he walked after me, just like a little offended dog.

I thought it was cute, when he was like that.

But most of all I loved him, when he was like always. The arrogant and idiotic asshole.

Although he was an effort and an ass, when he was like that, but it was the true Aomine.

Of course, he also had other sites. I had seen some sweet and some frightening sides and all belonged to him, and I liked them all.

It was official: I was completely and irrevocably in love with Aomine.

I loved him, every side of him.
