Hey yo ! :)

long time no see! Thanks for your reviews! :) This chapter mainly contains Kagami, Akashi, Murasakibara and also Himuro, in the next one everyone will be together again-oh man it´s really difficult to write about so much characters :D Alright, I´m not sure about this chapter, they all seem so OOC, I don´t know, maybe it´s just me, maybe not, please tell me haha. I find it really difficult to pinpoint Akashis character, I´m afraid I didn´t really got it right...

I´m sorry for the late update, I got lost in the bleach manga ( ah, ichigo my love *_*) and in Gintama (haaa, I´ve got so many Anime crushs right now, that´s not funny anymore :D :D) and university, but in two weeks I got vacation-yeey- so I´ll be able to write more *_*

Ahh, anyway, please enjoy!

Kagami sighed as he set the dirty dished into the sink and let the water pour down. It had been nearly a week since then and with a wince he remembered how he had exploded, shouting at them and laughing, calling them stupid before throwing every one of them out of his apartment. He still felt pretty bad because it hadn´t been their fault, they were just trying to help him but at that moment he had been unable to deal with all of them, so overwhelmed from all the things that had happened to him.

Tiredly Kagami stared up at the ceiling, just the sound of the pouring water now filled his apartment and it all seemed so empty. The whole week had been empty. Because he had made it perfectly clear that he didn´t want to see any of them of the next days, maybe even weeks no one had dared to visit him, not even Aomine who he might have expected to rub his presence into Kagamis face or maybe Akashi to punish him-oh god and how he shivered in fear because of that-for his highly inappropriate behaviour. Not even Kuroko came over to give him that "I´m really disappointed in you Kagami-kun" stare.

With automatic movements Kagami began to wash the dishes. But if he remembered the expressions they had given him it wasn´t that surprising because even if had been caught up in his own anger he could remember how their faces just showed understanding- no disappointment or even anger, it was just plain understanding. And that was probably what pissed him off the most, because now he had the feeling like he did something wrong-well, he maybe did, so he only had himself to blame.

He sighed and rubbed the back of his hand against his eyes. He was so tired for the last days, because those dreams kept him awake or woke him up at 3 am and he couldn´t sleep anymore because his heart wouldn´t stop pounding so hard and the sweat was cold and so nasty that he took a shower in the middle of the night. Most of the time he dreamt about the same building over and over again, saw how it crumbled down in flames and everything was so hot and red suddenly and he could hear himself screaming a name he couldn´t make out. Sometimes there was this man he remembered seeing in his first dream and sometimes not, most of the times he couldn´t remember the faces once he woke up and he didn´t want to remember because it was scary and even though Kagami didn´t believe in those supernatural whatever things it was not normal to have the same dream again and again in just two weeks.

And next to that the things that Midorima had told him didn´t want to leave his mind and even though he deemed the idea that he was the result of a human experiment as absolutely ridiculous the thought still haunted him and more than once he found himself looking through articles in the internet again and again, but he couldn´t find anything and in a way that was reassuring. So it was even more important to apologize to those guys because in a way he didn´t want to be alone with his thoughts and even though he didn´t want to admit it he was afraid what his dreams could mean and he was utterly afraid of the story that may stand behind his change.

Unsure he glanced over at his phone lying right next to him. Should he call Kuroko? Apologize? But then he needed to apologize to all of them… maybe invite them over for Saturday?

Would they even come? Sighing he put back the now clean dishes and dried his hands. Well he needed to do something because he was growing god damn bored and yes he felt quite bad for what he said but he especially felt so lonely. He didn´t know what Kuroko told their team mates but no one had contacted him ever since he didn´t come to school and even if he didn´t want to he felt a bit disappointed at that.

Chasing away those depressing thoughts he reached for his mobile phone. Should he call them? No, a message should be enough and if he would call everyone he probably wouldn´t be finished by tomorrow.

Still a bit unsure and actually embarrassed he typed in a short message, asking if they wanted to come over tomorrow afternoon and then nearly threw the phone away, not really wanting to look at it-he wasn´t that desperate.

So he did his best to keep himself busy-what should he do, how should he apologize to them? He was horrible with words-with a shudder he remembered the embarrassment from their game against Kajiou at the winter cup-and apologizing wasn´t really something he could call his speciality. So what was he good at?

Well basketball but he couldn´t really offer that, Midorima would just push his glasses up and say he would prefer to continue the book he read, Kise would say something about how he didn´t want to ruin his clothes, Aomine would smirk saying how Kagami would lose anyway, Akashi would say something about how he needed to teach Kagami a lesson for ignoring them and now suggesting something so plain as an apology would be unacceptable, Kuroko would agree with him and Murasakibara would complain about it being a hassle and how he wanted more food.

Food!

He grinned, that was something he was good at and how he could show that he was sorry. He would make everyone´s favourite food-something he picked up over the month he had already spent with those idiots-and they would understand it and Kagami didn´t have to actually voice it. Yes, he closed his fist at his decision and glanced at the clock-if he hurried he could still get all the ingredients he needed. Red bean soup for Midorima-well that was easy because Midorima preferred the canned one anyway- Teriyaki burgers for Aomine, he already did those before, tofu soup for Akashi-shouldn´t take long either-for Murasakibara… Kagami frowned, well Nerunerunerune candy wasn´t something he would offer that guy for lunch, so what should he do for that big candy monster? Kagami sighed, anyway-Kuroko would get that milkshake, because he probably wouldn´t eat anything else, maybe Kagami should make curry as an alternative? And for Kise onion gratin soup-okay he should be able to that.

With a rush of determination and the long list of ingredients running through his head he grabbed the long coat and the cap he used the past days to hide his ears and tail when he got out to buy food-he was pretty proud of himself for coming up with that solution because it made him feel so much more independent and just so much better-and slammed the door behind him, making his way to the next supermarket. A few things he could finish today, so he just needed reheat them tomorrow and the rest he would freshly make tomorrow. For the first time this week he actually felt good, he was outside, had a goal in his mind and work to do-Kagami never was one who could lay around and do nothing, he always grew all twitchy and nervous.

When he got back nearly an hour later, his mobile phone was blinking at him, telling him he got six new messages and his lips formed a small smile as he tied the apron around his body. So his apartment would be full tomorrow again-how nice.

Kagami had been busy for the whole day, tidying up his apartment, scrubbing the tables and cooking all the food. Now it was one in the afternoon and it was just two hours until a whole bunch of chaotic basketball players would invade his rooms and probably destroy all the work he had done, but that was okay-food was made to be eaten and tidiness was made to be dirtied. And Kagami was actually looking forward to it-they all knew how weird he looked so they had already overcome the awkwardness and even though they all were pretty different and difficult individuals it was always lively with the group and Kagami would never grow bored. He smiled lightly at the thought; it was nice having them as friends, but so weird to refer to them in that way. He sniggered-friend-what a weird thought indeed, the last friendship Kagami had ended with a punch in his face but they had made up and he had learned so he hoped that this time it wouldn´t end with a punch in his face-or worse.

So he still had two hours, so what-a ring went through his apartment, announcing a visitor and Kagami frowned in confusion-who could that be? He didn´t expect anyone else, so…? It rang again and Kagami made his way to the speaker, asking a bit out of breath "Who´s there?"

"Good afternoon Taiga, we´re a bit early but I hope you can let us in nonetheless."

Surprise written on his face he opened the door, a bit anxious waiting for Akashi (and someone else?) to arrive as he fidgeted from one foot to the other. Shit, he really had tried to keep his mind off the moment when they would meet again but now he was really nervous.

"Ah, Taiga we meet again", the surprising soft voice of the Rakuzan captain made Kagami look up from the floor and his eyes nearly popped out his head when he saw Akashi, Murasakibara and Himuro standing in his doorway.

"T-Tatsuya?"

"Good afternoon Taiga-you" a frown appeared on Himuros face and Kagami swallowed, well that much for no awkwardness.

"Uh, yeah long story, it´s-"

"Yes, Akashi-kun already told me about it but I didn´t think it would look so well on you, Taiga" Himuro smirked and Kagamis whole face exploded in warm red as blood rushed in his head and the embarrassment made his stomach tingle.

"Sh-shut up, it doesn´t! It looks ridiculous and you know it!" he protested loudly, but only began to stutter when Himuro just winked at him and ruffled his hair when he moved past him, following Akashi and Murasakibara inside who seemed to have grown tired to left be standing in the doorway.

Sighing Kagami closed the door and followed the three into the living room.

"And what are you doing here anyway? And why are you so early?" he asked as he went to fetch four glasses and soda from the kitchen.

"Muro-chin grew curious and I couldn´t shake him off" he heard Murasakibara mumble when the giant tried to make himself comfortable on the couch and Kagami winced slightly in empathy because it was difficult to even get his body in a comfortable position in front of the table and Murasakibara was even bigger than him, taller and broader.

"Of course, I grew suspicious when Atsushi acted so strange this week, he became all gloomy and he didn´t even eat all his snacks-not that it´s a real bad thing-"

"Muro-chin!" Murasakibara complained but was utterly ignored as Himuro just gave that small smile of his and turned to Kagami who was filling their glasses while asking himself what exactly Himuro was trying to say.

"but yesterday everything seemed to be fine again and he maybe let it slide that he was coming here, so I thought why not come with him since I didn´t got to see you for weeks."

Kagami fidgeted at the thought that he made Murasakibara feel gloomy as Himuro had put it and seemed to have a great influence on his mood and even his appetite and he couldn´t help feeling a bit guilty for ignoring the other guy.

"But I never could have thought of something like", Himuros eyes wandered over Kagamis face and up to his ears, "that… Akashi told me a few things already but… still, what happened?"

Kagami sighed as he sat down on the floor and took a sip from his glass as he glanced up to Akashi who had been uncharacteristically quiet for the last minutes and now was neatly sipping on his soda water.

"Uhm well I always mix everything up so maybe Akashi could tell-"

"I´m afraid I have to refuse, I already told him everything I know so there is no more to tell." Akashi interrupted him forcefully and Kagami slightly jerked at the cold tone in his voice. So he was angry at him… so much for integrating him into the conversation.

"Uh, alright-well, if you already know then there´s probably nothing more I can tell you, so…"

Himuro smiled gently despite the cold aura that suddenly seemed to erupt from the place next to him, "I thought so, but I had hoped you could tell me something about how it feels for you Taiga."

A bit surprised Kagami blinked at him for a few seconds and then gave an unintelligent sound, stumbling over the first words. No one had asked him that so far, so he didn´t really know what to say.

"Uhm, it got better I guess, I hardly notice it and although both the ears and the tail seemed to have grown I forget about them most of the time. Oh, but I went shopping the week!" he exclaimed proudly, "I hid them under a cap and a coat and no one noticed!"

He grinned at the three basketball players on the couch, hoping it would light the mood a bit, but his cheerful expression soon fell when he was met with rather… tight expressions. Akashi sighed and looked at him with a serious expression that made him gulp-oh shit.

"That is dangerous Taiga, what if someone would have noticed?" Akashis voice was softer than before, but still had a dangerous undertone that should have made Kagami think about what he was going to say, but as often that thought came too late.

"Well, but no one did!" he shouted and stood up with rushed movements, clenching his fists in anger. He wasn´t a kid, goddamn it-he could take care of himself!

"Do you know how fucking frustrating it is to stay inside the whole day? I don´t know if you can do that but I definitely can´t!" he was breathing hard, eyes probably blazing in anger and his whole body seemed to shake under the emotions running through his body. He groaned-God not again, it was like it was starting all over again; The conversation they had last weekend had been nearly the same.

"Sorry, I-"

"It´s alright Taiga, we understand you but we also worry about you." Akashi calmly said and his voice seemed to carry over a smile which didn´t show on his face but Kagami nearly sighed in delight when that gentle look came back.

"Y-you don´t need to worry about me, I´m a big guy you know? I can take care of myself!" He nervously twitched his hands in his lap when Akashis seemed to expose everything in Kagamis head just with his gaze, a gaze Kagami couldn´t hold so he watched how his finger intertwined with each other just to jump apart again.

"We also know that Taiga, but you have to admit that this situation is far from normal so it also needs a different treatment, don´t you agree?"

"Aka-chin is right, what would have happened if someone would have noticed?" Kagami glared at Murasakibara-even he was criticising him?

"They probably would have thought I was weirdo or a cosplayer or something like that anyway…" he mumbled more to himself.
Akashi sighed, "well maybe, but you don´t know that, so please don´t do it again, or at least not alone"

Kagami looked down on the floor-well it wasn´t like he had a choice this week, but he probably couldn´t say that since that had practically been his fault. "I´ll give my best…"

Akashi smiled at him, "That´s all we want"

Kagami sighed, "Why-why do guys you care so much anyway?"

"Because we care for you, is that so hard to believe?"

Kagami stared at him, heterochromic eyes looking back, showing nothing but sincerity at which Kagamis heart started to pound faster than it should and his skin seemed to tingle but he couldn´t avert his eyes or do anything against the soft and warm rush of heat that flooded his cheeks. God, Akashi was worse than Kuroko right now, spouting things like that out of nowhere-it had always made him uncomfortable, he was guy, he didn´t talk about feelings!

"Aka-chin´s right, Kaga-chin is nice so we need to keep bad things from happening to Kaga-chin."

He flustered at that and again stared at his hands-fuck, he had no idea what to say agains that-why were they suddenly so weird and embarrassing?!

"Atsushi, please stop, you make him all embarrassed" amusement dripped from Himuros voice and Kagami glared at him with piercing eyes but the other just chuckled and stood up. "I need to use your bathroom for moment, Taiga"

"Yeah sure, go ahead" he rolled his eyes, "just go if you need to-no need to ask"

"Yes, yes…"

Kagami ran his hand through as he watched Himuro leave and turned to Akashi and Murasakibara again. "Uh thank you-I mean I-ah-I care for you guys too…"

He looked away when he heard both of them slightly laugh and he just could feel how his face burned up again-honestly how could they say something like that and even though it sounded really cheesy it somehow seemed to fit in-well whatever it could fit in-but just when he said something like that it was just ridiculous and sounded so wrong and strange and argh-

"Taiga."

And he didn´t want to feel like that, for the last weeks he seemed so out of his own character it seriously pissed him off!

"Taiga."

And, argh it just made him so angry!

"Taiga!"

"Huh?" A bit confused at hearing his name he raised his head and flinched when he met Akashis stare.

"Wh-what?"
"Please join us on the couch, would you?"
Kagami clenched his jaw-as if that was a question.
"But Tatsuya…"
"Well he´s not there right now, so come here-Taiga"
And how could Kagami refuse when Akashi sounded like that. Kagami couldn´t really put his finger on it, but it sounded deep and soft, not demanding, more like suggesting but so subtle that it could be mistaken for a demand and Kagami found himself moving to the couch nonetheless and silently sat down between Akashi and Murasakibara.

Just as soon as his bottom touched the soft cushion Akashi pulled him down by his shoulder, a soft and graceful motion that disturbed Kagamis balance rather ungraceful and forced his head to rest on Akashis lap.

Kagamis eyes went wide as he stared ahead and his view suddenly was turned 180°. Swallowing the embarrassing sound that nearly made it out of his mouth he hold his breath, not daring to speak up as Akashis hand found his way into his way hair, softly brushing through the red locks-calm, firm and with so much control that it should scare him and Kagami would have fought against it, if it didn´t make him so sleepy-a condition he recently found himself in quite often. But before his eyes could even fall shut, despite being in such an uncomfortable position (his head was on Akashis lab while the rest of his body was mostly still in a sitting position) a big hand closed around his one foot ankle and before he could react pulled his leg up making him produce a noise Kagami would definitely deny making if anyone asked as he snapped out of this sleepy daze.

Shocked and surprised he looked up as his second leg was also raised, but before he could lose his balance it was placed next to the other on Murasakibaras lap-okay that was too much. He wasn´t fragile, he was alright and they surely didn´t need to baby him! Kagami struggled and protested-a bit weakly he had to admit-to get up but Akashi just laid one cool hand on his forehead and pressed him down again-and his body obediently followed.

"I don´t need you to babysit me!" he protested but just as before it lacked bite and Akashis hand just moved a bit harder through his hair.

"We don´t babysit you Taiga, you just look really tired so you shouldn´t sit on the floor." Slim fingers gently pressed down on his temples, messaging the skin and the stained muscles making Kagami sigh and he felt his eye closing.

"Yeah…" he murmured, "couldn´t sleep at all-stupid dreams."

"Dreams you say? What are they about?"

Sighing when Akashi fingers brushed against the area behind his human ear and wandered up to the cattish ones Kagami began to tell him about the crashing buildings, about the man he always saw, about the fire and the heat, about himself, how he always thought he could see and hear himself screaming a name but as soon as he woke up he wasn´t sure anymore, if he really saw himself or what that name was. The words seemed to tumble out of his mouth, unorganized because his head seemed all dizzy from Akashis scalp massage and he felt strangely at ease, the firm thighs beneath his head were slim and small, so different from his own or even Murasakibaras where his legs lay, with his feet dangling over the arm of the couch-too long to wholly fit on the cushions. But they still emitted warmth, so secure that it lured the red head into a strange trance of mindless babbling without paying really attention what he said or if it even made sense.

"Interesting…" Akashi murmured as he let his fingertips dance over the rim of Kagamis cat ears, to what the red head gave a sound similar to a purr and pressed his head closer to Akashis hand. The smaller one gave a small smile as he watched how those red eyes that always seemed so full of tension, just as the rest of the boy, and fierceness close shut again and a sigh left his lips.

"Mhm, it´s always the same-kind of scary, you know?"

Akashi smiled at that, "I guess it is, but maybe they want to tell you something. I myself try to restrain from believing in something as fluid and unreliable as dreams but maybe there is a hint of truth in them when they appear that often. Sometimes your mind wants to remind you of something you attempt to forget or to force you into remembering something long forgotten, because unfortunately times can´t heal wounds, just cover them with something new."

Kagami blinked up at the other boy-he could feel Murasakibaras fingers softly drumming against his legs and how the thighs of the purple head seemed to vibrate in impatience waiting for something Kagami could only guess-his first guess would be snack but you never know-and blushed as he saw the intense look Akashi gave him, the other should really stop doing something like that, it made him uncomfortable as hell. Not to think about all the strange feelings that seemed to have raged in him for the last days whenever he thought about these basketball prodigies who suddenly seemed to have gathered around him-with every intention to stay. Kagami wasn´t really sure what they could want and he really didn´t want their pity.

He sighed, "Are you talking about the things Midorima said, the last time?" he asked quietly and watched how Murasakibaras finger seemed to lose their drumming rhythm for a moment.

"Hm, we have no reason to believe that theory given the fact that there are no facts that support that idea, but nonetheless it may be possible that your dreams aren´t just made up fantasy and may have a true core."

"Hmh…" Kagami didn´t really care right now, he had thought about those things far too much for the last week-he didn´t want to think about it right now.

"Where´s Tatsuya anyway?" he asked and raised his head-he couldn´t have disappeared? Again?

"I´m here Taiga" a soft voice came from behind the couch and surprised the red head sat up and found his brother sitting on the floor thumbing through magazines that were scatter around his sitting figure.

"Eh, why didn't you say something?" he inquired with one arm leaning on the back of the couch, "you´re not Kuroko are you?"

Himuro laughed at that, "I guess so, but I didn´t want to disturb-you seemed to be in quite serious conversation."

Kagamis whole face went red at Himuros amused look, shit-of course, it must have looked weird, a big guy like him lying on the lap of someone who was heads smaller than him and getting his head petted. Oh god…

"It´s not-I mean, it´s…"

Himuro laughed quietly, "Don´t worry-I would have done the same" and while Kagami wondered which same he was talking about Akashis small hand pulled him down again so in the end he found himself in the same position as before and even though he really didn´t like being handled that way he felt himself getting all drowsy again. It really was funny, he thought as he gazed at Murasakibara under half lidded eyes , just a few month ago he would have laughed at the thought or the suggestion that he would ever have a good relationship with that big purple little kid who just seemed to grow and grow a bit more but stayed that little spoiled shit inside. How did that happen anyway? Led by the gentle hands running through his hair and the small sounds of Himuro flipping a page and Murasakibaras warm big hands running over his legs his mind began to wander back-oh yes, it was when Tatsuya came over and naturally brought that candy loving bastard with him, back then he was still "the double-eyebrow"…

"Oi Tatsuya, you´re early! ... And not alone…" Eyes narrowing in annoyance he glared at the purple head basketball player standing behind his brother.
"I´m sorry Taiga, I couldn´t shake him off", Himuro smiled apologetic and glanced at Murasakibara who was stuffing his mouth with a handful of candy.

"It´s the double eyebrow again…" he munched, glaring back at Kagami with just as much annoyance as he got and anger bubbled in Kagamis guts-how dared that bastard…

"What are you doing here!?" he shouted, stepping into the giants' personal space. Murasakibara just looked down at him-a situation that was really strange for the red head-and rolled his eyes, "Didn´t know that Muro-chin wanted to visit his annoying brother…"

"Who are you calling annoying you little-!"

"My, my Taiga please, I´m sorry but maybe we shouldn´t talk about this matter in your doorway and Atsushi I told you that I would be visiting Taiga."

"Mhm… don´t remember" Murasakibara mumbled, clearly losing interest in the conversation as he forced his way past Kagami into his apartment.

"Oi, what the hell are you doing? No way, I´m letting you stay here!" Kagami shouted and followed the other Ace on hot heels, "don´t just go into other people's houses!"

"Eh, why not, you invited Muro-chin anyway…"

"Just Tatsuya-not you!" Kagami backfired, clenching his fists in frustration.

"Taiga, Atsushi, please stop fighting, does it make any difference?" Himuro tried to calm the situation but just seemed to pour oil into the flame when Kagami exploded, that yes, it would make a difference, because he wanted to catch up with his brother, just the two of them, because he had missed him (Kagami still blushed at that) and he didn´t like Murasakibara!

Kagami smiled slightly at the memory, he didn´t know how long he had bickered with Murasakibara, much to Tatsuyas annoyance, but it had a really strange turn when the purple head had discovered the cake Kagami had baked. A caramel Appel pie and nothing Kagami would usually bake (he didn´t really had a thing for sweet things) but a friend from America had recommend him the receipt so he had wanted to try it out and let Tatsuya test his first try, just like when they had been young. He hadn´t expect the cake to be the reason Murasakibara would suddenly take a liking to him (not that he had ever expected to make friends with someone so lazy) but it still had worked.

"Who baked that cake Muro-chin?" Murasakibara asked, with big eyes and nearly drooling on himself as his eyes were practically glued to the cake standing on the kitchen counter. Kagami still couldn´t believe the way Murasakibara had suddenly stopped making comments over his eyes brows and how annoying he was to suddenly start sniffling and let his nose lead him into Kagamis kitchen-much to his horror, the red head had to admit.

"For that you have to ask Taiga, although I´m sure he baked it himself"

Big glassy purple eyes met with his and Kagami automatically took two steps backwards, because having that look originally directed at the cake, directed at him made him feel a bit strange (and maybe even frightened but not that he would ever admit it) and he found himself nodding.

"Uh, yes-I made that…" he mumbled and watched how Murasakibaras eyes grew even larger, if that was humanly possible, and glistering with delight that belonged in the eyes of a five year old but not really in the ones of a 16 year old basketball player who was also far too big for his age.

"I didn´t know Kaga-chin could cook…" he mumbled and now it was Kagamis turn to make big eyes at the other-"K-Kaga-chin, what the hell is that?!" he choked and desperately looked at Himuro who gave a short chuckled and rested his hand on his chin, leaning against the kitchen counter.

"It looks like you just climbed up at Atsushis friend rate"

"When did I get in there?!" he shouted. Kaga-chin? What was that?

"I want to eat it" An almost childish voice interrupted Kagamis thoughts and made him look at the other basketball player who seemed to literally tower over the cake and he sighed, well, why not. Cakes were there to be eaten.

"Yes, just wait a moment and let me set the table, do you guys want to drink something?"

"Water is just fine" Himuro smiled, obviously pleased with the turn of events and pulled a protesting Murasakibara back into the living room.

"Muro-chin, I want to eat that cake!" Kagami heard him complaining and then decided to ignore the two as he got the plates, forks and glasses and followed them into the living room.

"Could you two set the table? I´ll get the cake."

With a small smile he noticed that the speed with which Murasakibara actually laid the table could rival that surprising and powerful speed he also showed on the court and for a moment he feared for his plates but the purple head seemed as accurate as he was fast so when he got back everything stood perfectly in place and with big eyes he watched how Murasakibara practically devoured the cake, asking for seconds again and again. And people called him a glutton.

After that they had played all the various video games Kagami had, talked about nothing at all and actually had fun. Murasakibara had tried to convince him to become a chef just like he had planned and asked if Kagami would bake for him again and of course he had agreed, because even though he didn´t want admit it, it felt good to be complimented like that and he still fought a blush when he thought back at how Murasakibaras face had lit up at him agreeing to bake or cook for him again. He now kind of understood why his brother had taken a liking to the overgrown child. Tatsuya had once said that even though Kagami was such an idiot-something Kagame had protested against, of course-he was good at taking care of people and Murasakibara clearly was someone who needs to be taken care of-hell, that guy would probably eat nothing but sweets the whole day and Kagami didn´t want to see his teeth after that.

"Aka-chin is being unfair, we should switch now." The voice of the boy who had dominated Kagamis thoughts reached his ears and made him look up from his comfortable position, -he was still lying on Akashis lap and fuck was that embarrassing, but he didn´t want to find out how said one would react if Kagami again protested against that position. Murasakibara was obviously pouting and Kagami nearly smiled at the sight, he really was becoming soft.

"Kaga-chin should lay on my lap now."

Eh? With wide eyes he stared at the purple head who was sucking on a lollipop and send clearly dissatisfied glances at Akashi who just smiled, "he is laying on your lap" and his grip on Kagamis head seemed to tighten making him slightly wince.

"His feet, not his head. I want to touch his ears."

"Hey!" he protested. He didn´t like the way the two were talking about him at all, it was like he wasn´t even in the room!

"You should learn to control yourself better Atsushi, it´s not fitting for a person if he always get what he wants."

Kagami couldn´t supress the thought that Akashi probably had no experience with not getting what he wanted but even he could read the thickening aura around those two and even when he didn't really understand what was going on he didn't want to take any part in it so against his instincts he decided to get up, he was stuck in that embarrassing position for far too long anyway.

"Uh, I think I need to get up anyway." He said and mentally raised his fist in triumph when he managed to get out of Akashis grip without much hindrance. "Still need to set the table and…" he looked at the clock and his eyes nearly popped out of his head. "Fuck, already this late?" he ignored Akashis mumbled "language Taiga" as he stumbled into the kitchen, still a bit out of it as the warmness and dizziness still pulsed through his body.

"I´ll help you Taiga", he heard Tatsuya call from the living room and before he could shout back that it wouldn´t be necessary, that he was a guest, the bell rang, startling Kagami and took the words out of his mouth.

"Oi Bakagami, open the door!" Kagami glared against his door as Aomines voice sounded from the speaker. Of fucking course.

And with a "who are you calling an idiot Ahomine?" he slammed the door open, staring right into the smug face of that over tanned bastard.

"Yo"

"Hello Kagami-kun."

"Kagami-cchi, how nice to see you again!"

"Good afternoon Kagami"

So they were complete and the chaos was ready to begin.

"That wasn´t nice Aka-chin" Murasakibara complained as the pair listened to bickering at the door. "I wanted to touch Kaga-chin too…"

Akashi smiled at the pouting basketball player next to him, "I know Atsushi, but everything at the proper time, we wouldn´t want to scare him away wouldn´t we?"

The red head sighed when the other just seemed to sulk even more, "We talked about this, didn´t we? If we want this to work we can´t go all at the same time."

"But it´s still unfair, you got to touch him the whole time…" Murasakibara sucked on the lollipop and stared at his lap where minutes ago Kagamis legs had laid. He could still feel the warmth and he wanted more than that, Himuro always told him he was too greedy-when it came too sweets-but this was the first time he felt the same greediness, the same hunger for a person, he usually wasn´t overly fond of other people- with Himuro being an exception and even though they had tried being in a relationship it seemed the relationship they shared was different than the one Murasakibara now wanted with the red head. Even when he had to share him with five other people. Sometimes he wondered if a person could be worth all the fuss that suddenly emitted with these rising feelings and confusing sparks of pure lust-it was so tiring.

"Alright, I hope you´re all hungry but because you´re all far too early I still need to prepare a few things so, I don´t know, entertain yourselves, while I finish the food. But please don't break anything."

Murasakibara looked up at the smiling face of the boy that had begun to fill all of his thoughts-next to candy of course-and listened to his own pounding heart when he their eyes met for a moment and Kagamis smile just seemed to get wider when he noticed the gleeful look Murasakibaras eyes got when food was mentioned.

Nope, definitely worth it.

Alright, please tell me what you think :)

Lots of love, Anon!
