Title: Everyday Incidents

Thanks to adgenelia, Dragonblaze66, and Animefreak1145 for you reviews and thank you for the 20 favs and 25 follows!

Oh and for those asked, there is a link on my profile of a pic. of how I imagine the GoM to look like as girls.

Enjoy!

Hyuga, for his part didn't care that Kuroko Tetsuya was a girl. Nope, not a bit. It didn't matter because even though she was a girl, she was obviously a skilled basketball player and that alone was enough reason not to get worked up. Their coach was a girl so he was used to having a female around a group of men; from dealing with protective fathers to snide remarks from opponents that sneered girls didn't belong in basketball (here, they made sure they wiped the floor with whatever team they were playing. If they lost, Riko would kill them.)

He took it in stride and sure it took a while, but in no time at all, Kuroko blended into the team and the fact that the small blunette was a girl was easily forgotten.

Of course that didn't mean he had to like the jeers they often got when the opposing team saw that jersey 11 was a pretty girl. He felt his blood boil and his teeth clench in anger as he caught some little brat shamelessly raking his eyes up and down Kuroko's form (who had her back turned) during warm up and from the enraged growls and glares from his teammates he knows he's not the only one who wants to teach the little piece of shit some damn manners.

But instead of beating the crap out of the guy (despite Kagami being in favor of this, and had they been anywhere else, they would have gladly let him), they retaliate in the way any self-respected basketball player would- they ended the game with a score of 90-55.

And Junpei would be lying if he said that seeing the despaired face of the shitty little brat wasn't satisfying. Ha. Let it be a lesson for him and all other perverts who thought they could mess with Seirin's Kuroko Tetsuya, if anyone thought they could try and get away with it they would get torn apart.

And that was a promise.

"Are you kidding me?!"

"Fool, I don't joke. Besides, it benefits us both."

"How does this benefit me?!"

"Simple. I get a free ride and you get stronger. Now let's hurry up otherwise we'll miss the game." Midorima gracefully sat herself inside the rickshaw and looked at Takao expectantly and he knew that he wouldn't be able to deny the shooter anything. No matter how ridiculous or unreasonable. "Fine, as you wish princess." He through his arms up and got on the bicycle and was soon slowly peddling away from the school, in the back Midorima leaned back and enjoyed the wind pleasantly breezing on her face.

Yes, this defiantly beat walking.

Behind them, Ootsubo shook his head, "Damn kids…"

"Shin-chan! You left me in the middle of traffic, do you have any idea how embarrassing that is!?" He heaved, desperately trying to fill his lungs with much needed air. "It's your fault for being slow." Midorima huffed, pushing her glasses up. Kise turned to look around Midorima and smiled coyly, "Who's your new friend~?" Midorima narrowed her eyes, "He's my teammate. Whatever ridiculous notions you are making up in your imagination, cease now." Kise's sunny orbs glinted, "Whatever you say Midorimacchi. I'll just go say hello then~"

"Wait-"

"Hello Midorimacchi's teammate!" Smiling charmingly at the heaving boy, who stopped peddling to stare at her.

"Takao! Turn around and do not listen to this fool!" Midorima yelled from behind.

Takao grinned mischievously before returning a smile of his own, "Wow you're prettier in person, got any stories on Shin-chan~?"

"Thank you, aren't you nice~? Well there was this one time…"

"Kise!"

"Really?! Shin-chan's such a kl-OW! Shin-chan!"

"Eeek! Midorimacchi that hurts!" Both cried out as Midorima pulled both their hair's respectively, "Sh-Shin-chan it's okay! Next time you fall I'll catch you in my strong arms-Oww! Sorry!" He wailed as she tugged his hair harder in response.

"Midorimacchi's so mean!" Kise dramatically cried out.

Midorima would never make the mistake of letting these two meet. Ever.

"…Atsushi you have class today. You can't sleep it away." Gently prodding the girl's head from the live lump on the bed with his finger. "…Muro-chin I don't want to. Go away." Murasakibara curled up even tighter, Himuro frowned slightly. "Do you not feel well?" he asked, sitting on the edge of her bed. "…No, I don't feel good. Go to class without me." She finally answered, and Himuro knew that she was lying (when Atsushi lied she tended to shift her eyes from his, very much like a small child. But never not looked at him.) or not telling him everything. He would leave it alone.

For now.

"Alright then, I'll come check on you at lunch, I'll bring you some soup to make you feel better." Reaching under the thick covers and softly patting Murasakibara's violet hair comfortingly before getting up and softly closing the door behind him.

"Hey, is it me or does Murasakibara seem…sad?" Fukui commented in the locker room after practice, several days after she fell 'ill' and refused to leave her dorm room. "Was she? I did not notice anything different." Wei Liu replied; disinterest lacing his voice, but mentally trying to remember if the tall center seemed off at all during practice. "She was more difficult than usual today. Himuro do you know anything?" Okamura turned to the shooting guard and gave him a semi-sharp look that said 'if you know anything, spill now or else.' He was slightly annoyed that despite the combination of bribing and threats from Coach Araki, Murasakibara refused to do practice and in the end did less than the bare minimum of her regimen. She had left as soon as practice was over, not even bothering to change out of her practice cloths.

Himuro shook his head negatively, "No she hasn't said anything to me. No matter how many times I ask." He added the last part under his breath, some part of him thought that Atsushi trusted him a little more with her thoughts and feelings. "…Uhm maybe it's that time for her." One of the benchwarmers suggested nervously, shrinking back when the four starters turned as one to stare at him "Time for what?" asked Okamura a confused look on his face. Fukui face palmed, "Really Captain? You know, her time of month?" He groaned at the blank look his gorilla captain continued to give him. "We should not be talking about a woman-"

"No it's not her period; she already had it this month." Himuro cut off Wei Liu, ignoring the strange (horrified) looks his teammates gave him, "How the hell do you know that?" Fukui demanded, and was once again, ignored.

"Actually I might know what's wrong." One of the non-regulars said, looking slightly nervous at the sudden attention he was getting from the starters. "W-well Murasakibara-san and I have the same homeroom…and sometimes there are other girls who kind of…make fun of her." He finished somewhat lamely, backing up behind one of his friends when the four starters narrowed their eyes.

"What kind of things do they say?" Wei Liu demanded, it was hard to imagine Murasakibara of all people being...bullied. Her height alone intimidated people; it was very rare if people spoke up against the tall girl. "Well they mostly make fun of the fact that she's you know, tall. Or the fact that she's easily available for all the guys on the team-"

Himuro felt his hands clench at the implication. Really he shouldn't be surprised, they had no problem with having a girl on their team, and they got used to the idea. But everyone else, apparently the female population, just thought of outrageous and vicious lies about a lone girl holed up in team full of men and just assumed the worst of her.

"Does she do anything back? Hit them or something?" asked Fukui, even if he and Murasakibara weren't as close as she was to Himuro, he didn't like the idea of very false rumors spreading about her. She was still his teammate, and he looked out for his own. Even if was Murasakibara.

"You know how she is, she just calls them 'stupid' or to 'shut up' and 'I'll crush your heads' kind of thing. Usually she scares them into stopping."

"…So maybe Murasakibara isn't sad but annoyed?" said Okamura, it would be very weird if the violet haired girl showed any emotion besides disinterest and the occasional happiness when presented with a new treat.

Himuro chewed his lips a little, "Maybe, but if that's the problem than Atsushi should just ignore them." And even he knew that for Atsushi, sweet and child-like, that was impossible. As much as he loathed the idea of these girls continuing to harass the tall center, there really was nothing they could do to stop that kind of talk. Just as there would be people that didn't mind having girls on a boys' team, there would always be people that disapproved of having a woman in a (supposedly) man's world.

The question was how to get Atsushi to ignore the teasing.

"Muro-chin?" She stared hungrily at the small grocery bag full of her favorite treats, ohh some of those were some that she hadn't had in a while. Himuro smiled coolly, before holding up a hand to stop her from taking them. "I know about the girls that bother you Atsushi," Her eyes narrowed slightly, "the best way to deal with them is too ignore them." He continued, she gave him a small huff of displeasure,

"They're annoying Muro-chin."

"I know, so I'll make a deal with you. Every day that you don't pay them any attention I'll bring you a bag of your favorite snacks." Her dull violets shimmered into lavender at the promise of free food. "Do we have a deal?"

She nodded, "Deal."
