Chapter 4: Kagami's First Decidedly Non-Boyfriend Was Midorima

It all started with a game of one-on-one. Kagami ran into Midorima when he was doing errands one weekend, and a couple dozen insults and curt sentences later, they were headed towards the nearest basketball court. Despite the fact that the last time they faced each other, Kagami won. Seirin beat Shutoku. Midorima still manages to say things that imply he's better than Kagami.

"I beat you last time. I'll beat you again." Kagami snapped

"Your confidence is foolish. Today is a different day. One-on-one is a different game. I won't lose again. Besides, today Cancer's ranking is number 2, far above Leo. You don't stand a chance." He clutched a small keychain plushie panda in his left hand, which must be his lucky item.

"Whatever." Kagami rolled his eyes. No one wanted to 'get into it' with Midorima when it came to his horoscope obsession.

They were playing furiously for quite a while, and even though Kagami's jumps allowed him to stop Midorima, it was even easier for Midorima to defend against Kagami whose shooting average was nowhere near as high. Blocking his dunks were easy too, so either of them making a basket was a matter of speed and accuracy.

Kagami was fed up with Midorima's insults combined with his calm playing style, in which he was currently winning by 5 points. When Kagami knocked the ball out of bounds, Midorima went to fetch it. Kagami bruskly followed and shoved Midorima against the fence.

Midorima had a nasty grimace on his face in a 'how dare you' sort of way. Midorima put himself above all 'physical' altercations.

"Tch. A basketball idiot is useless in a battle of words, when he can only react with violence." With abrupt force he knocked away one of Kagami's hands. Kagami still had a tight hold on Midorima's collar. "Now remove your other hand." He glared at Kagami in such a way that he seemed taken aback by his expression.

"Not when you keep ragging on me."

"Then either prove me wrong, or accept the truth. Any other course of action is utterly pointless." Midorima said with his monotone voice that always carried an air of disdain to it.

Kagami snarled, his grip tightened. Anything Midorima would choose to say will just piss him off. Midorima grew tired of this. An idiot is no good when it comes to words. He didn't have the patience for conversing with idiots. Midorima decided a slight demonstration of force may be necessary to get through his thick skull. He got a firm grip on Kagami's wrist that was still holding him back, and in a single motion brought down his other arm where Kagami's neck met his shoulder, and managed to flip their positions around, pinning Kagami against the fence and freeing himself—somewhat.

The sudden movement took Kagami by surprise and he had a partial dumbfounded look on his face. Kagami was now the one trapped but he still had a firm hold on Midorima's collar.

When a brief silence settled between them, Midorima became overly aware of how heavy both of them were breathing. And even though Midorima never put himself in these kind of physical altercations that seemed common for Kagami, he was just a little bit excited. It was a lot of anger, rage and annoyance, but no one else brought these feelings out as fiercely or as easily as Kagami could. His mind went blank, something that he never really experiences. And before he knew it he was leaning forward and firmly pressing his lips against Kagami's. He vaguely thought he felt Kagami jump just a bit, but then Kagami began kissing back with equal force.

Kagami still had a firm grip on Midorima's collar, but was now using that to pull him close. Midorima pressed against him, pinning him to the fence with his whole body, and with his tongue pried his way into Kagami's mouth: the taste, the warmth, drinking it all in his mind was just swirling fog. They both reached a state of 'do anything that feels good.' This was new for Midorima. They took deep panting breaths in between each wet and forceful kiss. With his free hand, Kagami clung to the fence, his knuckles going white from gripping so tightly. Midorima threaded one hand through the fence and he dug his fingers into Kagami's thigh with the other. They got all the way to grinding against each other, but it wasn't enough.

Midorima broke the kiss with frustration, his face still unusually close to Kagami's, both of them were flushed, and their eyes darted this way and that. Midorima gritted his teeth. He couldn't bring himself to say out loud what he was clearly thinking about.

In a low gritty whisper Kagami mumbled "My place isn't far from here." Midorima's eyes stopped darting around and he was staring at the fence but listening intently. Then Kagami lowered his voice to a bare murmur in which Midorima managed to catch the words "live" and "alone." It didn't matter what the other words were.

They finally broke apart, and kind of fumbled about in a hesitant sort of way, starting in one direction, stopping, and continuing in that same direction. They grabbed their stuff and walked an incredibly brisk pace down the street. Kagami only slowed down when he started to fumble with his keys. Midorima growled "Hurry up," right next to his ear when he caught up to him.

Kagami scrambled to unlock his door, taking longer than he usually would. Inside his apartment they lay down their stuff on the table. Midorima politely removed his jacket and set it on a chair, and the second they made eye contact again, Midorima pinned Kagami to the wall in a flash began sucking away at his neck. Kagami let out gasps in between his panting breath, and dug his fingers into Midorima's hair, pressing him against his neck more than he already was, egging him on.

They slowly sunk lower and lower as they wrestled pieces of clothing off, and dug their fingers into each other's backs. The only sounds that filled the room where their heavy breaths and the squelching of their sweaty bodies rubbing against each other. Out of sheer pride, Kagami refused to let himself cry out and muffled himself with his hand.

They never had an official arrangement. It was more like one sought the other out for "one-on-one" but their time always ended at Kagami's place. There was never a pattern to it. There was never a warning for the other when one would show up outside their school after practice.

It was Kagami who ended their little "not a relationship" for good. After he and Kuroko reached an understanding that they were gonna come back stronger since losing to Tuou, he just felt the need to put a nail in this particular coffin.

He and Midorima had one more night together, and it felt as good as ever. But after they were done, and they both were getting dressed, Kagami sitting on the bed with his back to Midorima said, "This is the last time."

"Hm," Midorima said in response indicating he'd heard him. There wasn't anything to say. This relationship didn't revolve around conversation.

Kagami was surprised when he felt a hand on his wrist, and turned around. Midorima was sitting behind him, dangerously close. "Only fitting to make the last time longer." Kagami couldn't help but smirk, as they quickly sunk into a heavy makeout session. Midorima kept pressing against him until he fell backwards onto the bed, allowing him to climb on top.

Midorima traced his tongue down Kagami's chest, nipping here and there, leaving tiny marks. Each nip made Kagami shudder. He hated to admit it, but Midorima was really good at this. He gasped and groaned as Midorima teasingly traced sensitive spots with his fingers.

"Hm, are you sure you want to keep going?" Midorima asked and you'd think they'd never had sex before with his tone of voice.

A vein popped in Kagami's forehead. "Hurry up and fuck me, you idio—!" He was cut off when Midorima inserted his finger into him, and Kagami let out a gurgle, and continued gasping with every tiny movement Midorima made. His hands bunched up in the sheets, holding them as tightly as he could.

Kagami's finite statement had spurred them both on. Usually they spent a little less than an hour together whenever they did this, but tonight they made it last a few hours. Making sure to do each of the things they'd ever tried. It was actually quite late when they ran out of steam. Midorima would have to come up with an excuse as to why he's returning home at this hour.

He got dressed but Kagami was still laying on the bed, quite out of it.

"Oi, Kagami!" Midorima snapped in his usual tone. Kagami dazeley lifted his head to let him know he was listening. "The next time you lose, it better be to me." He said haughtily, pushing his glasses higher on his nose.

Kagami just let out a single tired laugh. "Yeah," he said weakly, scoffing in a 'yeah right' kind of tone.

And Midorima left, and that was it. And, Kagami was left with trying to figure out an excuse as to why he probably couldn't practice with the team tomorrow.

NOTE: there was nowhere to really fit this detail in, but in my headcanon, Midorima at the point of his first time with Kagami was definitely no virgin, AND definitely been with other boys before. Cuz he knows what he's doing a little too well. And I think that fits.
