Rating: T

Warnings: BL and fluff

Summary to Ch4: The night before Kaijou's match against Seirin Kise makes an unexpected visit at Kuroko's place. Lucky him because Tetsuya's parents aren't home...

Sometimes Kuroko is grateful that his parents are rarely home. Especially when he hears the loud ringing of the door bell at nine in the evening and without looking through the eyehole he already knows who is on the other side. He sighs soundlessly and opens the door with the studied indifference on his face. He's welcomed by the loud and cheerful "Surprise, Kurokocchi!" and a joyful smile of the famous young model who once has been his basketball teammate in the middle school and apparently is his boyfriend now.

"I brought your favorite vanilla shake!" Kise chatters happily, showing him the white cup with the logo of Maji Burger on it and his amber gold eyes shine in happiness when he meets the gaze of Kuroko's unreadable blue orbs.

"What are you doing here, Kise-kun?" Kuroko asks in monotone and backs a little to let the blonde in.

"So mean~!" The other exclaims, coming inside and throwing off his shoes. "I've missed you so much! Isn't Kurokocchi happy to see me…?" His imaginary puppy ears drop and his lips form into a shape of a horseshoe.

"We've seen each other yesterday, Kise-kun," Kuroko replies dryly, showing no mercy to the Kaijou's ace.

"I just wanted to wish Kurokocchi good luck for tomorrow…," Ryouta looks down at his feet with a blush creeping up on his face. "We're finally going to be opponents again after all…"

Kuroko stays silent for a few seconds before finally answering, "You are unbelievable, Kise-kun," he sighs and smiles lightly, coming to the blonde. Kise is already on the cloud nine, his eyes sparkle and arms are open and ready to take Kuroko into the huge embrace but all the blue-haired teen does is slipping out of the bear hug and stealing the cup with his vanilla shake on the way.

"Kurokocchi~…"

"Would you like some tea, Kise-kun?" Kuroko asks, sending him a challenging smirk over his shoulder and heading for the kitchen.

Ryouta understands at once and sends back his wide grin, following his boyfriend. Suddenly a small black and white puppy runs inside the room and Kise almost stumbles over it.

"Nigou!" He exclaims and his eyes shine. The puppy waves its tail in response and barks happily, jumping into Kise's awaiting arms. "Good boy…," the blonde mutters, scratching the dog behind its ear and looking into the sky blue eyes of its, the same shade as Kuroko's.

Kuroko, seeing it, smirks a little and whispers under his breath that birds of a feather flock together as he waits for the water to boil.

Suddenly Kise's giggle grows louder when Nigou starts licking all over his face. "At least Tetsuya no.2 gives me a welcoming kiss…," he laughs, putting the puppy back onto the floor. He turns around and sees Kuroko with two mugs of tea in his hands.

"Shall we go to the living room?" The smaller teen suggests and Kise nods eagerly, coming first. Being countless times in Tetsuya's house already, he knows exactly where he should head for. "You're lucky that my parents aren't home tonight, Kise-kun," Kuroko murmurs, placing the hot beverages on the coffee table in the middle of the room. "They don't approve of late visits…"

"I knew they wouldn't be here," Ryouta smirks, sitting down on a cushion. Kuroko frowns at that.

"How so?" He asks, looking suspiciously at his boyfriend.

"Let's just say that your honorable mother has a weakness for the very handsome and persuading me," the blonde winks meaningfully, smiling triumphantly.

"What a manipulative person you are, Kise-kun…," Kuroko mutters, coming closer to the model with a spark in his baby blue eyes.

"No better than you are, Kurokocchi…," Ryouta replies and grabs Kuroko's nape to finally join their lips together. Their hungry tongues battle for dominance none of them is able to win. Suddenly Kise pushes Kuroko on his back and hovers above him. "I've missed you, Kurokocchi…," he whispers gutturally, his amber eyes burn with hunger.

"Don't be ridiculous, Kise-kun. It's been only twenty seven hours…," Tetsuya mutters back, playing with the blond soft wisps of Kise's hair.

The blonde model leans closer to him and whispers in his ear, "Every minute without you is like a needle in my chest, Kurokocchi… I just can't have enough of you…" he licks at the earlobe and then places a kiss on Kuroko's cheek.

"Kise-kun exaggerates, as always," Kuroko rolls his eyes and flips them around suddenly so that he straddles Kise's hips. "If Kise-kun thinks that something will happen between us tonight, he is mistaken…" the blue-haired boy purrs, leaning his hands against the other's torso. "We both need to be at full strength tomorrow…"

Kise smirks and sits up, wrapping his arms around Kuroko's waist and nudging their noses together. "Nothing's lost, I'll wait until I win, Kurokocchi…" he says with malice in his voice.

This time Tetsuya actually chuckles as he leaves a path of butterfly kisses on Kise's cheek, "Then you're gonna wait for a long time, Ryouta…"

Second Note: You know what? I love the AUs with Kuroko and Kise being in the same team! (preferably in Kaijou). Gotta write such fic one day :3
