This is a roleplay story done by KurokoTetsuya101 and The Lucky Bell.

The grey haired male kneeled down as he eyed Kuroko walking out of the school. Teal hair, teal eyes and the adorable/beautiful face. He remembers is all too clearly. However, this is not how its suppose to be. No. Not like this!

Haizaki Shuugo, the said teen watched as Kuroko made it out of the school grounds and onto the pavement, heading to the other direction from him.

Haizaki remembers the time he first met Kuroko. If he could clearly remember, it was about 10 years ago at the kindergarten. The boy was simply beautiful. From the first time he saw him, Haizaki fell in love. His poor little heart couldn't stop beating every time he gathered the courage to interact with the teal head.

In kindergarten the two of them became friends but then soon everything changed. Kuroko started getting popular and by popular Haizaki means REALLY popular. Girls and boys alike would approach him to ask him to marry them in the future. Even if it might have been a children's joke at the time, Haizaki took it very seriously.

At that moment, Haizaki changed completely. He started acting... different towards Kuroko to the point of bullying him and making his group of friends do the same. By the time, everyone bullied poor Kuroko who didn't even know the reason why.

One day, the young Kuroko walked towards Haizaki with the intention to play with small car toys but when he did, the grey boy threw the toys away and pushed Kuroko to the floor.

"You're so ugly! You should hide your stupid face so that nobody sees it!" Haizaki laughed historically as the poor little Kuroko started to cry, making the teachers come to see what's wrong.

At the time, Haizaki smiled, his goal accomplished. 'Now nobody will fall in love with Kuroko when he hides his face', Haizaki thought and hoped that's what Kuroko would do. And just like Haizaki had planned, Kuroko did. The small boy's hair began to grow from shoulders to chest length with time, completely hiding his face away. Not long, Kuroko started wearing glasses as well.

Haizaki felt achievement and victory. Now the only thing left is to approach Kuroko and confess. During playtime, Haizaki did just that as he gathered the courage and went to confess to his love. However, when he got there, he didn't even get to finish his first word when he saw... Kuroko crying.

When the teal head had seen Haizaki approach him, he started to cry for his life. It hurt Haizaki to get such a reaction... He certainly did not plan this! Not knowing what to do, Haizaki turned around and ran away, out of the classroom and straight home.

He didn't care if the teachers would run after him. All he could see were those beautiful hidden teal blue eyes crying... BECASE OF HIM! That day Haizaki spend the rest of his day at home, thinking back at what he had done.

The next day, Haizaki ignored Kuroko completely, not willing to even approach him. The others would still bully him but Haizaki didn't care anymore. 'If I can't have you then nobody can!' he told himself as he sat in class.

Time passed and everyone went to different middle schools. Haizaki heard that Kuroko would go to the Seirin middle school but decided not to do anything. Maybe he'll just forget about Kuroko and move on?

Now onto the present day, Haizaki sees the very person that has stolen his heart from day one. Kuroko Tetsuya, walking casually on the street and with his hair short! To top it off with no glasses! Haizaki was shocked but knew the reason why.

Yesterday, he was walking by from his school and saw Kuroko for the first time in years with a redhead. Judging by the way they were acting, Haizaki guessed they are dating. This redhead has changed HIS Kuroko completely and now he's set back to get retrieve what is his.

Haizaki clenched his fists as he walked up to Kuroko. When he reached the tealette from behind, Haizaki placed a hand on Kuroko's left shoulder, out of nowhere, before shoving him onto the wall of the school fence.

Kuroko gasped slightly, more in surprise than in pain. He closed his eyes tightly, trying to shake off the pain. Who grabbed him? Kagami? Didn't Kagami already leave? He didn't remember Kagami ever being so rough...

"Kaga-" Kuroko stopped short when he opened his eyes. It wasn't Kagami but some stranger. A stranger who oddly seemed familiar... However whether they seemed familiar or not, this was a stranger who already had him pinned.

His mind raced, trying to find out who this could be. Maybe it was someone Akashi's father hired? But they solved that problem long ago! Why would he make a move now?

He didn't say anything at all, not knowing what to say. Should he call for help? Should he try to hit the other away? No, he couldn't do that. Not only did he hate fighting, but the other was definitely bigger than him.

Haizaki stared at Kuroko wide eyed. He didn't change at all! Those beautiful eyes... they didn't change! Haizaki felt a small blush come to his cheeks the longer he kept looking at the teal teen.

"Haha... haha... You didn't change at all... Not at all!" Small laughter escaped his lips as he put his right hand on his face to hide it.

Didn't change at all? Did this mean they met before? But Kuroko didn't recognize this person at all! "I'm sorry but... have we met?" He asked, staring at the familiar face. Why did the other seem so familiar?

Haizaki stopped laughing but when he raised his head to look at Kuroko, he had to wipe some tears from his eyes. He looked at the teal boy in silence, memories of the past surfacing. He doesn't remember? Kuroko doesn't remember him?

"Does the name Haizaki Shuugo ring a bell?" He asked, leaning in closer to Kuroko's face mockingly.

At first Kuroko was surprised. Haizaki? Then he finally remembered. Haizaki from so many years ago. The Haizaki that bullied him for no reason when he was so young. THAT Haizaki?!

He wanted to move away as his heart started racing fast, but he had no where to go. The memories he tried to forget for so long, the memories that Akashi actually made him forget for these few months, resurfaced. Haizaki was the one who bullied him to the point where he hid away from the world, hiding behind his hair and glasses.

He remembered all the pain he went through that he had to learn to hide, even from his parents. Haizaki was the main reason why he continued to get bullied, even as he went into middle school and eventually high school.

Why was he back? How did he know he was here? Did he perhaps recognize him from the winter cups?

Kuroko stared up at Haizaki, unsure of what to say or do. He didn't want to be near this person. "I-I need to go…"

Haizaki immediately grabbed the bluenette's hand and pinned him back onto the wall when he tried to escape. "You're not going anywhere. We have some catching up to do~" he said as he licked his lips, looking at the teal head predatorily.

Kuroko immediately felt 10x more terrified when Haizaki pinned him. It was bad enough he was on the brink of having a panic attack or something. Now Haizaki had to scare him more? "W...What do you want then?"

"I told you. We need to catch up on things~" Ha said as he looked at the scared Kuroko. It's true that Haizaki's love for the boy didn't disappear. He confirmed it when he saw him for the first time at the Winter Cup from the sidelines. When he saw the bluenette playing, the love resurfaced. No... He probably never stopped loving him.

All this time Haizaki was dating girls. Many, many girls! You wouldn't even be able to count them on two hands! But then again when he thought back about it... it was probably just a way to make him forget whom he really loves. Haizaki was trying to fall in love with someone else but he couldn't do it.

The day when he had met Kuroko Tetsuya for the first time was the day his heart had been stolen. But now that Kuroko's right in front of him, Haizaki is at a loss.

He knows Kuroko is dating that redhead... he feels betrayed. He leaned further down to Kuroko's face.

"Do you remember kindergarten? Back when we played with toys and did all kinds of stuff. We were best buddies but now I feel hurt Kuroko. Didn't you miss me?"

Kuroko didn't miss Haizaki at all. He was trying to forget Haizaki for so long and he managed to forget about him for a year or two. Why did he have to show up now all of a sudden?

"I remember kindergarten." All the good and bad memories. Eventually all the memories further in his school life just became awful. It was all thanks to Haizaki... "I don't know why you feel hurt but I really need to go now. We can always... catch up at another time." And by another time, Kuroko actually meant never.

The grey head tightened his hands on Kuroko's arms, feeling even worse. Kuroko is sacred? So be it! He will have him either way. "Tell me Kuroko... No, Tetsuya. Why do you think I bullied you? Do you even know why you were bullied? Enlighten me. What do you think was the reason?"

Kuroko winced at the slight pain in his arms but then his eyes widened, the pain forgotten. No one except Akashi and his parents can call him Tetsuya. "Don't call me Tetsuya." Kuroko said firmly, pulling at his arms a little. "Let me go now."

Haizaki completely ignored Kuroko's plea and went on with his point, "Why do you think you were bullied all this time! You don't know? Then let me tell you why. It's because of me! I told everyone to bully and beat you up! But I had my motive for doing so…"

"We were just kids and you..." There was no reason why Haizaki should have done that. But wait... If Haizaki made those people bully him... Did they think he was hideous like Haizaki did or were they just following the leader? "Nothing should have made you do that... I don't want to hear it!" Kuroko struggled more, uncaring about the pain.

"I'll come clean and tell you then." Haizaki paused for a moment, his heart beating furiously fast but he hid the blush down. "I-I told everyone to gang up on you because I didn't want anyone to fall in love with you." Ha paused, Kuroko confused.

"You were beautiful... so I couldn't have anyone else fall for you. But what could I have done? I had to do something... and I did it. I told everyone to bully you so that you would hide your face. And just as planned you did!"

"You thought... I was actually beautiful?" Then why didn't Haizaki just say so? Why didn't he just confess? Why did he have to bully him and trick him into changing his looks? Because of Haizaki, he went through so many years of bullying, pain, and crying alone at night. So many lies were told to his parents about his bruises, so many people hated his looks and bullied him to no end. He didn't understand anymore.

What was real any more? Everyone hated him for how he looked and now that he changed his looks a while back, everyone liked him all of a sudden. With the exception of Kagami of course. And Akashi. Akashi said he fell in love with him even when he hid his face. But everyone else... He didn't know what to think about them anymore. Images were so stupid and stressful, they even hurt him.

"Why... Why didn't you just tell me that then? Do you know what I've been through? Even after kindergarten, the bullying continued and it wouldn't stop..." Kuroko's hands tightened and he took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself since he felt like crying.

"I couldn't do that. I felt guilty for doing it I admit but... my original aim was not accomplished." Haizaki clenched his fists. He had to get the truth out now. "I love you Tetsuya. I love you." He finally said, twice as if to reassure himself that he had actually said it. After all these years...

"I fell in love with you the moment I laid my eyes on you. Love at first sight you could say. I didn't have the courage to confess so I didn't say anything. But then I got scared... What if someone else falls in love with you? I couldn't have that!" Haizaki raised his voice, startling the poor bluenette.

"So I thought 'Hey! If I can't have him then nobody can!', so I told everyone to gang up on you to make you hide your face. And you did. After that, I gathered up the courage to confess but when I approached you, you started crying. I realized what I had done so I had ran away and never talked to you again." Haizaki looked down onto the ground.

"Now that I met you again... I confirmed it. My love for you didn't disappear. It never did." He looked up again.

"I love you Tetsuya."

Kuroko just stared at Haizaki. What was Haizaki trying to accomplish? He knew that Haizaki was just a kid back then and didn't know better, but did he really expect him to tell him he loved him back?

Maybe if he didn't fall for Haizaki's plan and didn't get bullied, and maybe if he didn't fall for Akashi, just maybe he would have fallen in love with Haizaki. But he loved Akashi and he definitely didn't love Haizaki.

"I... I'm already with someone, so I can't return your feelings..." Kuroko tried not to feel guilty. He hated hurting people's feelings.

'Someone... The redhead!' Haizaki thought as he once again tightened his grip on the bluenette. "Break up with him." Haizaki said, his voice cold, void of any emotion or sympathy. Why should he care if Kuroko loves that damn redhead? He loved him first so Kuroko is his right?

"Break up with him" He commanded again.

Kuroko almost gasped at the pain but once again, he pushed back the pain. "Break up...? I'm not going to break up with him." He said with confusion but also a little irritation. This almost reminded him of his situation with Akashi's father.

"No, when I say you break up, you'll break up." Haizaki looked at the bluenette intensely but not nervous. On the contrary, he felt really confident and calm.

"I'm the leader of the biggest gang in the city. We're called 'Grey Ash'~ I'm sure you've heard of us in the news or somewhere. We're quite famous~" Haizaki smirked when he saw Kuroko's expression change with the mention of the name 'Grey Ash'.

"Who knows~ Don't blame me if something happens to your redhead~ I don't know... maybe an accident of sorts?" Haizaki's smirk widened.

"Don't!" Kuroko said, a bit too quickly for his liking. He couldn't have Akashi hurt. Not by such a dangerous gang. "Please, don't... Don't hurt him." He pleaded softly.

"Haha!" laughter escaped Haizaki's large grin as he leaned in further to Kuroko's face. Just at the crook of his neck and whispered, "Then break up with him~ You'll be my bitch in the gang~ I'll introduce you to everyone else~" He sarcastically said as he licked Kuroko's earlobe.

Kuroko shuddered, pushing down his feelings of disgust when he felt the lick. It took everything in him to avoid trying to hit Haizaki away. "But..." He loved Akashi. He couldn't just break up with him just to be some... plaything! But if he didn't, Akashi could get hurt, maybe even killed!

"...I'll..." Kuroko closed his eyes tightly, feeling the guilt inside him rise. "I'll break it off tomorrow…"

Haizaki's smirk widened, content to have things his way. "Good boy~" He licked Kuroko's ear once more, deciding to tease the bluenette further.

"But how will I make sure you don't escape? When you go back to school, how will I know if you won't run away with your redhead?" he sadistically said but thought of an idea. "What's his name?" Haizaki asked. If he has a name, then it would be easier to track that person... more harm could be done.

"I won't run away, I promise. You don't need to know his name." Kuroko insisted. He didn't want to get Akashi hurt. If Akashi got hurt and it was all his fault... He didn't know what he'd do with himself.

Haizaki suddenly grabbed Kuroko by his chin, squishing his cheeks with his hand. "You'll tell me his name. You're mine now so you have to obey me." he squeezed, silently telling him that worse could happen if he doesn't give a name.

Kuroko felt the pain again but he refused to tell Haizaki. He didn't care if he got hurt. He just didn't want Akashi harmed. "Promise not to hurt him."

"Promise~" Haizaki promised, but his voice had a playful tone to it.

"Promise me seriously." Kuroko said firmly, staring down Haizaki.

Haizaki stared down at the bluenette. He grinned. He will play along~ "Promise" he firmly said.

Kuroko was still hesitant but then sighed. Hopefully Akashi won't get hurt now. "It's... Akashi Seijuuro…"

"Akashi" Haizaki tried the name on his tongue and hated the feel. The name of the man that fell in love with what is his. They won't get along... that's for sure. Perhaps he could show this Akashi who rules this city~

He looked down onto Kuroko before smirking. After all those years, he's finally his for the taking. He is his!

Once Haizaki let Kuroko go, telling him he can go home now, Kuroko didn't waste any time trying to get home. Even with his weak stamina, he ran all the way home. He felt so awful. He was Akashi's. They were together for a couple of months and they even went further in their relationship not long ago. Then the person who ruined his life showed up and is trying to take that away...

He had to think of something but... what if Akashi got hurt? He'd have to play along until he thought of a plan.

Kuroko didn't get much sleep which was unusual for him, but he didn't question it. Today was the day he had to break things off with the person he loved just to be with a person he hated. He just hoped Akashi would understand...

He went to school and tried acting normal. It was easy since he hid his emotions well for so many years. You know, thanks to Haizaki. When he made it to his class, he forced himself not to avoid looking at Akashi. He slightly smiled at the other as he sat in his seat but he just didn't feel happy like he used to when he saw Akashi. Just thinking about what he had to do... It made him so angry yet devastated.

Akashi's eyebrow raised at Kuroko's smile. When Akashi lifted his hand to wave at his lover, something felt wrong. Not by the fact that Kuroko seemed down, or by the way his head was looking downwards just before he came into the class.

What gave Akashi the strange feeling came from that unnatural smile. With his Emperor Eye it was easy to spot. Plus, he has known Kuroko for quite some time now to tell that something is wrong. Akashi was about to stand up before...

"Lesson is starting class! Please be seated!" the teacher entered the classroom and started arranging his notes and books on his table. Akashi sat back down with a sigh. He will definitely ask Kuroko what is wrong after the class.

The teacher arranged his notes and pushed his glasses upwards before he faced his students, "Today an exchange student will be joining us. He will be staying here for some time so please give him a warm welcome." The teacher's announcement made everyone gasp in surprise. Who could it be this late in the semester?

Suddenly the doors, opened to reveal an all too familiar figure.

Kuroko didn't even bother to look up. He knew who it was and he didn't want to see him. He shook a little and tried to calm himself. Not that it would matter since most people wouldn't see him.

"Let me introduce Haizaki Shougo. He'll be joining this class. Please introduce yourself Haizaki-kun" the teacher passed on the word to the grey head.

Haizaki didn't say anything at first, making everyone confused as to why he wasn't introducing himself. The teacher fidgeted, not knowing what to do with the silence.

"E-Ehem... Alright Haizaki-kun, please sit down. There's an empty seat at the back of the class next to Akashi-kun." the teacher pointed to an empty desk to Akashi's right, Haizaki pleased with the seat choice.

He walked towards his desk, getting stares along the way and finally sat down. He glared at Akashi, the redhead returning the look but confused as to why he was giving it.

"Alright class, let's begin the lesson." the teacher picked up his book and began his lesson but Haizaki uninterestingly yawned and looked at his now 'lover', who was sitting on the other side of Akashi. Ironical, how the redhead was seated between them. As if symbolizing that he is a thorn, an obstacle in the way of his relationship with Kuroko.

Haizaki smirked, suddenly standing up. The teacher and everyone else turned around when they head the creak of the chair as Haizaki stood up and picked up his chair.

He brought it over next to Kuroko's desk and lazily sat down next to his 'lover'. When he did, Haizaki smiled as he put a hand over Kuroko's shoulder. "Continue teach~" he said as he leaned in and leaned Kuroko closer to whisper something.

"I wonder what face he'll make when he finds out~" Haizaki sadistically whispered, a wide smirk on his face as the teacher continued on with his lesson. The tension and uneasiness still in the air.

Kuroko wished he would never have to see that face but it had to be done. He refused to have Akashi hurt and if breaking up was the only way... He'd have to do it.

Why did Haizaki have to do this? If he really loved Kuroko, he'd let the boy love and be with whomever he wanted. At least, that's what Kuroko thought.

Kuroko made Haizaki remove his arm from his shoulders so he could lean over to Akashi. He tried not to show any emotion as he whispered to him. "C-Can I talk to you in private? During lunch would be fine."

Akashi glared holes onto Haizaki. What was he doing sitting next to Kuroko? And why did Kuroko just accept it? He raised an eyebrow at Kuroko's sudden question. Fear... he could sense pure fear in Kuroko's voice, as well as sadness.

Akashi abruptly stood up from his chair, the whole class returning their attention on the three again. "Let's talk" Akashi said, exchanging challenging glares with Haizaki who smirked in return. Haizaki stood up and followed Akashi out of the classroom, all of the students and the teacher speechless at their bold act but they could sense something was going to happen due to the tense atmosphere.

Kuroko didn't know what to say when the two left. Most people stared at him when they left, probably looking for answers on why the guys sitting beside Kuroko just suddenly got up and left.

Unable to take the stares and the thought of Akashi getting hurt, Kuroko stood up too. The teacher didn't even try to say anything as he walked to the door and left the classroom. He had to make sure Akashi was alright. He just sighed in relief when he saw that the two weren't fighting or something.

Haizaki and Akashi stared at each other for a while when Akashi finally spoke up. "What do you think you're doing?" Voice as sharp as a knife.

Haizaki smirked as he leaned on the window, "What? I can't cuddle with my bitch?"

Akashi clenched his fists. Anger almost taking root of him if he didn't have enough will power to control himself. "Call Tetsuya that one more time and you won't live till tomorrow."

"Haha! But he is! He's mine now! You're officially dumped!" Haizaki laughed the words out when both of them noticed the sliding doors and Kuroko appearing from within.

Haizaki's smirk widened as he went to stand next to Kuroko, his hand thrown lazily around the bluenette. "See? We're a thing~ He loves me and only me~"

Akashi, holding onto the last strings of his control approached the two, forming a fist but hit the air beside Kuroko as Haizaki evaded. "Don't you dare touch him." Akashi said with pure venom in his voice.

Kuroko wanted so badly to go to Akashi; to hide behind him and hope Haizaki just disappeared. He wanted to say that he didn't love Haizaki and he only loved Akashi. He just wanted to be with Akashi.

But he couldn't. If he did any of that, Haizaki would hurt Akashi. He wouldn't live with himself if he got Akashi hurt. "Please don't fight." He said instead, looking at Akashi then Haizaki. "Neither of you. Please don't fight now.."

Akashi stood protectively in front of Kuroko, facing Haizaki head on. "Don't worry Tetsuya. Its alright." he said but when he did, Haizaki let out a chuckle.

"Haha! You really don't know what's going on here don't you! Come here Kuroko~" Haizaki waved his wrist for Kuroko to come to him. Akashi looked confused but didn't back down. Kuroko wouldn't possibly walk up to Haizaki like nothing?

As much as Kuroko wanted to stay beside Akashi, he couldn't disobey Haizaki. If he did, Akashi could get hurt, or worse.

Kuroko slowly made his way to Haizaki, hugging himself with his arms. He didn't look at Akashi. He was too ashamed to look at the other. When he made it to Haizaki, he didn't look at either of them.

Akashi looked at Kuroko in disbelief, "T-Tetsuya?" He managed to say as Haizaki put his arms around Kuroko one again in victory. "Haha! See! He's mine now~ You better back off big boy~" Haizaki mocked but none of it reached Akashi's ears. All he is looking at right now is Kuroko and Kuroko only.

"T-Tetsuua... W-Why?" Akashi was left speechless. He couldn't believe this was happening at all.

"I'm sorry..." Kuroko mumbled, still refusing to look directly at Akashi. He felt like crying again but he held back. He didn't want to do that in front of Haizaki and Akashi. "We can't... be together anymore." He wanted to say that he still loved Akashi and that he didn't want to do this, but then Haizaki would hurt Akashi.

"Haha!" Haizaki began laughing historically while Akashi stood in place. His whole body losing strength. He still believed that this is a dream of sorts. Kuroko wouldn't... he can't...

Haizaki saw the change in Akashi's expression to panic. He licked his lips in amusement and enjoyment of seeing Akashi suffer. Maybe he could...

Haizaki smirked before grabbing Kuroko, positioning him so that he faces him. Then suddenly, out of nowhere, kissed the bluenette deeply. Akashi widened his eyes in shock.
