Bad Cop, Good Cop
Cop AU. Aomine has a discussion on who is going to be the Bad Cop and the Good Cop with his new partner Kasamatsu.
"Who the fuck is this?"
That was the first thing that Aomine could possibly blurt out upon seeing his new 'partner'. The expression that graced the shorter male's face before the guy literally smacked him upside the head shocked him, making Aomine stumble back and touch his head where he was just smacked. "The hell…" He muttered darkly, eyes narrowing at the guy.
A sigh escaped from Imayoshi's mouth, his arms folding over his chest. "Honestly, Aomine. I told you that I was going to give you a new partner since you… scared away your last." Imayoshi mumbled the last part, causing Aomine to smirk at the memory.
Poor, poor Sakurai. The brunette just could not handle how Aomine was. That was why Aomine preferred to work alone and not have any partners. But apparently the station he worked at always partnered cops together, mostly because of the neighborhood they operated in.
"Anyway," Imayoshi cleared his throat, motioning to the short, black haired and steel-blue eyed man beside him. "This is Kasamatsu Yukio. He's two years older and he has been a cop longer than you have, so show him some respect."
"Are you saying that he could handle me?" Aomine snarled, glaring at Imayoshi. The chief only smiled at him, shrugging nonchalantly in the fashion that made Aomine's blood boil. The dark skinned cop scowled, eyeing up the shorter male standing next to Imayoshi. "I don't buy it."
"Believe what you want to, brat." Kasamatsu spoke, walking past Aomine in order to get to his new locker. He stripped his sweater off and placed it on the hook inside his locker, taking the uniform that Imayoshi handed him. "But we're partners now. Nothing is going to change that."
"Tch." Aomine huffed out, glaring at Kasamatsu, mentally wishing that the man would just burst into flames. Much to his dismay, his new partner did not burst into flames and instead just continued to change into his uniform. Aomine looked away, intending to demand Imayoshi that he cut the shit out of partnering him with people, but then noticed the glasses-wearing man had vanished. "Damn." It took Aomine a moment to realize that Kasamatsu had asked him something but he had not been paying the new guy any attention. "Huh?"
Kasamatsu frowned, repeating his question, "How long have you been in narcotics?" He asked.
Aomine made an 'o' shape with his mouth before walking out of the room, following Kasamatsu when he left. "I guess two years and maybe… six months. Give or take another month." Aomine shrugged.
"I see. Were you always at this branch?"
"Yeah. Where were you before?"
"Kanagawa Prefecture."
"That isn't that far…"
"True. But I had to leave my previous partner just to be with your sorry ass."
"Hey," Aomine stopped walking, glaring at Kasamatsu. "You can't talk to me like that…" The blue haired man muttered in a dangerously quiet tone of voice. Kasamatsu stopped walking as well, tilting his head to the side to peer at Aomine out of his peripheral vision.
"Says who?" The steely-blue eyed cop asked, continuing forward down the hallway and towards the small rec. room.
Aomine blinked stupidly but growled quietly, "Me." He caught up easily to Kasamatsu, turning his head to glare down at the shorter male. "I'm the best they have here. Even Imayoshi lets me do what I want."
"Let me guess, next you're going to say something along the lines of "The only bad guys who can beat me is me", or something, right?" Aomine sputtered, halting in his steps once more. He stared at Kasamatsu, shocked and feeling somewhat suspicious of the man suddenly.
"How-" Aomine fell silent, noticing the amused smirk on Kasamatsu's face.
"I read your file. Calm down, you idiot." The raven haired cop stated, not once breaking his pace.
"Not an idiot." Aomine retorted quite childishly, frowning at Kasamatsu. He had to jog to catch up to the older male, and once he did, he noticed a small scar on the side of his cheek. Without much thought, Aomine reached forward and touched it gently, watching Kasamatsu still. "What happened here?"
"Nothing too bad," Kasamatsu muttered, glancing up at Aomine. "My old partner was being the usual idiot he was and I had to save him from some drugged out criminal."
"He pulled a knife on you, then? The criminal, I mean." At Kasamatsu's brief nod, Aomine looked away. He may do things his own way, being rash and without giving the end result much thought, but he was never injured on the field. In fact, the more he studied Kasamatsu's features, the more small scars and cuts and bruises he noticed on the man. Aomine suddenly felt dumb and out of place, but he frowned and pushed those feelings away and instead stared straight ahead of him and Kasamatsu. "You said your partner was an idiot?"
Kasamatsu snorted, "Yup." He said without missing a beat.
Aomine smirked, taking his gun out of its holster and grabbed a cloth from the table he sat down at. He began to clean his gun, for a lack of anything better to do until Imayoshi sent them out on the streets. "Did that make him the Good Cop and you the Bad Cop?"
Kasamatsu arched his eyebrow, "Not really. He is an idiot and he always acts innocent and nice around his friends, but outside he is pretty cold and… drastic."
"You're the Good Cop?" Aomine had a hard time believing that, considering how the older man had smacked him and insulted him. Not to mention the aura he gave off could even scare the pants off any criminals in the neighborhood.
"I can do both." Kasamatsu replied simply, shrugging. He sat down as well, staring at Aomine from across the table. "I already know you like to play 'Bad Cop'." Kasamatsu stated, thinking back to the multiple paragraphs of information on Aomine.
Aomine scoffed, "It suits me."
"That's because you're narcissistic and arrogant." Kasamatsu quipped.
"Gee, thanks." Aomine replied dryly, cocking his gun before placing it back in its holster. There was a comfortable silence that followed, despite the insult that was thrown at Aomine previously. The dark skinned man found it kind of amusing how Kasamatsu treated him. Usually he was feared and avoided by many, his partners never lasting because they just could not stand him.
"You know, I didn't think that you were this capable of having a decent conversation."
"… Thanks."
Haha~ Don't you just love it when these two converse? xDD I just sit here and grin like an idiot when I write about Aomine and Kasamatsu. (Also, I think we all know who Kasamatsu's previous partner was, right? Please tell me you do. *slapped*)
