"Takao-kun, should I have not called you out to have a chat?"

A teal haired boy sat in front of a wincing hawk-eye while blinking innocently, but the later could see a hidden smirk playing by his lips. He sighed comically and grinned.

"Eh~ I'm pretty sure you would've came to my house and forced me out, Tet-cha- Ow!"

Takao rubbed his sore hip that was obviously overused from the exercise beyond closed doors yesterday, after they headed home from the love hotel. Shin-chan is truly a beast in bed slipped through Takao's mind as he ruffled through his bag, yesterday's events running through his mind like a movie.

"Takao…" Midorima growled, his voice already tainting in obvious desire as he grabbed Takao's wrist and jerked the smaller boy roughly into the house the moment the greenette had unlocked the door. Takao gave an undignified yelp as Midorima slammed the door of the Midorima household shut and pressed the raven-eyed boy against the door, his palm banging against the wooden piece of wood next to the smaller boy's face, forcefully trapping him into submission.

"S-Shin-chan?" Takao stammered, his voice going up by a notch and his pupils dilating wide. "Yo-Your parents! What about your siste-"

"My parents are on a five-day trip to Beijing, and my sister is currently staying with my grandparents in Hokkaido."

Midorima's usual clear eyes was replaced with one of hazy lust as he leaned closer to Takao, his face leaning closer to the smaller boy's blushing one.

"S-Shin-chan, wait-"

Midorima cut Takao off by pushing his leg between the smaller boy's legs, effectively shutting the ravenette up as he rubbed his thigh against Takao's clothed shaft.

"Ngh… Hah… Shin-chan… Mmph!..."

The smaller boy mewled uncontrollably, his face heating up even further as he tried to place a hand over his mouth to unsuccessfully muffle his moans.

"Takao-kun."

Midorima jerked the smaller boy's hand away from covering the sweet moans as he slammed both of Takao's hands above him with the use of only one hand, trapping him tightly and not letting go.

"Do not test my patience, Takao. I have seen how much you love it when I fuck you senseless and until you can't stop screaming my name while you cum."

Takao whimpered involuntarily, his hips pushing forward to search for the pleasurable friction yet again. Midorima complied easily, his hip grinding against the younger boy's hip.

"Hah, Shin-chan! Ngh- Aah!"

"Takao-kun!"

Takao's eyes blinked in surprise as his thoughts drifted back to reality. The phantom sixth man of Seirin sat emotionless as usual in front of him, but Takao could sense a hint of annoyance beneath the poker exterior.

"Ahaha, Tet-chan, don't be so mad, will ya?" Takao laughed jokingly as he shifted his position on the chair with a soft groan. Kuroko's eyes widened in surprise as Takao's collar shifted a little to the right, parts of his skin showing out in the open.

Kuroko chuckled lightly. My, my; how possessive is Midorima-kun?

Takao's eyes flickered towards the teal-haired boy, curious on what had gotten him to lose his stoic expression, even if it was just for a moment.

"Midorima really made sure to mark you, did he not?" Kuroko almost laughed, almost, mind you; the moment Takao glanced down to see his hickey-covered neck, chest and torso for the first time as heat pooled at the raven-eyed boy's face immediately.

"Are you kidding!? They weren't there this morning!"

The moment those words slipped out of Takao's mouth, he vividly recalled what had occurred in the morning at the Midorima household.

I like to move it move it, you like to move it move it-!

"Shin-chan… It's noisy…. I don't wanna wake up…"

The large figure behind him stirred slightly, his arm draped across Takao's body. Takao could already imagine the frown of disapproval on the older boy's face.

"Go get it, Bakao. That's obviously your phone."

Takao stirred groggily and winced, his hands instantly pressing against his hip.

"Aaah, Shin-chan, you were definitely too rough…"

Midorima's hands arm tightened on Takao's as he pulled the smaller boy closer. Takao chuckled at the action and stroked Midorima's hands lazily. The music finally died down as silence fell upon the two sleepy lovers for a moment, and what seemed like too quickly, the voicemail started playing out from Takao's phone.

"Takao-kun."

Takao jumped 2 inches from the bed the moment the phantom sixth player's voice rang out from his phone, his heart beating fast from the sudden unexpected scare. Midorima stiffened, his arms holding tighter on Takao.

"You have 15 minutes left."

The phone clicked shut as the voicemail stopped playing. For a blissful second, everything was silent in the room. By the next, Takao swore as he scrambled out of Midorima's warm grasp and onto the cold tiles. He quickly grabbed his phone and checked the time.

12:15a.m, missed call from Tet-chan \ (**\ )

"Oh, shit." Takao groaned as he struggled to find his clothes from the day before in the room which was currently messy from the pleasurable activities that they were doing yesterday evening and all night. "This is bad, this is bad. Oi, Shin-chan!"

Midorima sat up groggily from his bed and slipped his glasses on. It only took a glance at a naked Takao that was bending over to search for his clothes to make him decide that he couldn't sleep anymore, not with that round, perky ass up high in the air as if it was begging to be fuc-

"Takao. What the hell is wrong?" Midorima cut his own thoughts off as he growled, his voice slightly displeased as he slipped on his boxers and pants that was settled on the corner of the bed.

"I agreed to meet Tet-chan and Furi-chan by 12:40am in a family restaurant today! I'm totally running late right now- Shin-chan, what are you doing!?"

Midorima towered over Takao as he held Takao still and stared at the younger boy. A few seconds passed as Takao glanced all around the room, trying to search for his mysteriously-disappearing clothes. After what seemed like an eternity, Midorima let him go, but not without a small smirk dancing across his lips.

"Acceptable."

"What the hell is acceptable, Shin-chan!? I'm wasting precious time and you're not helping!"

Takao desperately wanted to smack the smug smirk out of the older man. Acceptable what? Did he mean my abs? Wait, did he just call my abs 'Acceptable'!? Just because he has nice abs doesn't mean he can insult mine!

Takao fumed. "What the he-"

"Your clothes are at the corner next to the door, Takao."

Takao blinked as he turned around, and there it was- the damned clothes had managed to get lie in the corner of the room without him noticing.

"Shin-cha-" Takao started, annoyance laced in his voice.

"You're running late, Takao. It's 12:19a.m already."

Takao growled as he stormed towards his slightly crumpled clothes and picked them up and proceeded to wear them without thinking too much. He hears Midorima make a satisfied noise but ignores it.

Fine, two can play the game.

Midorima sat back down on the bed and checked his phone. Everything was silent except for the ruffled sound of Takao slipping his clothes on. His thoughts slowly began to drift away as he scrolled through Oha Asa.

Before he could tap onto the screen of his phone to play Cancer's lucky item of the day, a hand grabbed his phone and settled it on the bed.

"Takao, what on earth-"

The younger boy ignored the greenette as he sat down on the shooter's lap, his legs spread open and his tongue rolling across his lips suggestively. Midorima felt his sentence die down in his throat as he growled audibly and leaned forward, lust hazing up his mind.

Takao trailed his fingertips down Midorima's hard stomach, satisfied that he had earned a delighted shiver from the older man. He rubbed his crotch suggestively on Midorima's thigh as the older man rained kisses on the smaller man's neck, which followed with several bites here and there.

As quickly as it started, Takao jumped off Midorima's lap the moment he knew Midorima was going to push him down on the bed. Midorima's eyes narrowed and his lips pressed down in annoyance as the raven-eyed boy staggered slightly as he bounded down the stairs. The only thing that was stopping him from hitting the smaller boy was the way Takao limped and winced slightly across the corridor, hips and legs obviously overused. He growled slightly when the smaller boy did not look back at him even once.

"What do you think you are doing, Takao?"

Takao picked up his shoes and slid them on with a small hum. Midorima felt his patience running thin because what the hell- he's hard; and Takao dared to just leave him like that?

The moment Takao's fingers reached for the doorknob, Midorima slammed the younger boy against the door. A surprised gasp came soon after as he towered behind Takao. Midorima's eye twitched in annoyance as he whispered darkly.

"I asked… What do you think you are doing, Kazunari?"

Midorima heard a muffled moan emitted from the younger boy in front of him. He smirked darkly as an idea came to him. Before Takao could say anything, Midorima slid his hand up Takao's T-shirt and rubbed the hard nubs.

"Ah…"

Takao whimpered and bucked his hips involuntarily as Midorima continued to play with his nipples, rubbing and pinching the swollen nubs restlessly.

When Takao was about to turn over and face Midorima, Midorima stopped his actions completely and removed himself from the younger boy. Takao whined disappointedly as he turned around to confide the greenette, only to see Midorima smirking at him.

"It's 11:25a.m, Kazanari. If we continue, you'll be late for your oh-so-important meeting with Kuroko and Furihata."

Takao stared at Midorima disbelievingly. Is this guy asking him to head outside with a hard-on!?

"Shin-chan…" Takao tried, "But- I- You-"

Midorima's lips twitched up in a lazy grin as he nuzzled Takao's cheek, his arms curled loosely on the smaller boy's waist.

"You can always wait until you come back here, can't you, Kazunari..?"

A delighted shiver trailed down Takao's spine and down to his toes as he tensed and whimpered, already aroused. He hugged Midorima tightly and breathed in his scent, already slightly wishing that he didn't need to go to the family restaurant anymore and just stay at home with Midorima. Midorima hugged him back as hard muscle pressed against his body and doing nothing to calm his erection.

Takao gave one last try as he mewled and looked up to Midorima, trying to beg the older male to take him. He could feel Midorima stiffen and the next thing he knew, Midorima's hot lips were on his as the greenette pressed the younger boy against the door. Their tongues battled for dominance but Midorima won with ease as he sucked the raven-eyed boy's tongue just right to the point where Takao couldn't stand straight anymore and almost collapsed to the ground. Midorima caught and steadied him without breaking the while pressing him harder against the door.

The kiss ended as Midorima pulled back, a strand of saliva connecting their mouths and Takao panting hard. Midorima licked his lips and smirked as he released Takao from his hold. The smaller boy blushed horribly as he leaned against Midorima's firm chest as he struggled to regain his breath.

"11:30a.m, Kazunari."

Takao glared at his smug looking boyfriend and cursed his 19cm height difference because he can't hit the green haired shooter in the head. Instead, he pulled the older boy down and kissed him on the cheek, threw him a rushed 'goodbye' and raced out of the house (while wincing) just in time to see Midorima's red face, widened eyes and a hand touching his cheek.

Takao blushed when his memories skid to a stop as he clutched the sides of his collar and he tried to cover the passion-filled marks. Kuroko chuckled lightly, his eyes filled with mirth as he stared at the flustered raven.

"Ah, Takao-san," A slightly panting voice rang out from the side of the table. "I'm terribly sorry I'm late, Sei just doesn't like it when I go out alone..."

"Aah, Furi-chan!" Takao grinned his billion watt smile at the younger male, his former embarrassment gone in an instant as he gestured Furihata to sit down. "It's good that you're here."

"Good morning, Furihata-kun."

Furihata's eyes widened at the sudden appearance of his teammate, Kuroko.

"Uwa-Uwah!"

Furihata stumbled backwards and winced from the sudden movement. Kuroko stood up, worry barely etched across his face as a hint of a smirk touched through the surface.

"I see that Furihata-kun himself had been engaged in some terribly steamy exercise yesterday…"

Furihata stuttered and blushed furiously, his voice fumbling slightly.

"Ooh? Furi-chan?" Takao joined in, happy to take the attention off himself. "Oh, I forgot to tell you and Sei-chan thank you for lending us the rooms."

Furihata nodded as he smiled, his face still slightly red from the teasing by the two other boys. "It's alright, really." He started. "Sei and I were room 100, and since Sei's father owns the motel it was easy to get the rooms for you two."

Takao grinned and leaned backwards against the comfortable chair the family restaurant provided for the three boys as he sighed contently, looking at his two friends in front of him. A waiter approached their table, and once they've ordered what they want to drink, the waiter backed to the counter to retrieve their drinks.

"I really can't thank you both enough," Takao started. "It's because of you guys that I finally-"

"-Yes, we know, Takao-kun." Kuroko smiled and Furihata chuckled as three of them exchanged knowing looks to each other.

"Speaking of nostalgia, I remember how Takao-kun was so afraid if Midorima-kun would not accept him." Furihata started as Takao blushed slightly and stammered.

"H-Hey, I was insecure, alright?"

Kuroko raised an eyebrow at that. "Even after I told you countless times that it would work out?" Takao glared at Kuroko and pouted.

"Fine, you were right, Tet-chan; but still!" Takao argued but was shot down instantly.

"Please, Takao-kun, you couldn't even stand properly the moment you exited the room." Kuroko started, expressionless as usual.

"Takao-kun, I didn't expect you to be so oblivious to the hot stares Midorima-san always sends to you when you bend over the table or when you bend down to pick up the basketballs." Furihata added as he drummed the table lightly.

"W-wait, wha-" Takao stammered at his two best friends, but they kept on going.

"Oh yeah, Furihata-kun, did you even see the amount of hickey's Midorima-kun left on poor Takao-kun?"

Furihata blushed lightly as he answered. "It wasn't hard to notice, actually. Since Izuki-sempai has had been training me to be a point guard, and now with Sei training me too on the weekends; it's well… Uh… It's not hard to notice some things."

Takao mouth fell agape as he (unsuccessfully) tried to cover up the obvious amount of hickey's plastered all around his body.

"Is it that obvious!?"

"Yes."

Furihata and Kuroko answered at the same time and Takao covered his face behind his hands in embarrassment.

The waiter from before stopped once again in front of their table, this time with their drinks as he loaded their ordered drinks off his tray and onto the table. After they paid the waiter the correct amount of money and the waiter left the table, silence flooded over the three boys for a moment as the drank their drinks. Takao felt his face slowly cool down to its normal temperature and sighed.

"Ah, Takao-kun, I forgot to ask you about the lube I gave you. Was it good?" Furihata broke the comfortable silence as he leaned forward curiously after sipping some of his hot tea.

Takao nodded enthusiastically, his earlier embarrassment forgotten as he put down his hot Latte on the table. "Oh yeah, that lube was so smooth! I even slid in 3 fingers while waiting for Shin-chan the slowpoke to arrive in the motel, and the moment I heard him open the door-"

"How do you guys not get embarrassed when talking about this in open and instead get embarrassed over hickeys?" Kuroko deadpanned as he sipped his vanilla milkshake with a content expression.

Before Furihata and Takao could reply (Most likely with a witty comeback from Takao), a familiar voice rang out from the entrance of the family restaurant.

"Kuroko!"

In front of Takao, Kuroko's eyes lit up like how fireworks would light up the night sky, and Takao could practically feel the happiness being radiated from the smaller man seated before him. Kuroko muttered a small 'excuse me' as he practically hopped –save for his wincing- towards his light.

Takao laughed at Kagami's usual over-reaction over Kuroko's mysteriously disappearing acts- which gained a few glances from the other customers situated nearby. Furihata chuckled as Kuroko walked back, his smile again concealed behind a careful façade.

"Heading home already, Kuroko?" Furihata asked and Kuroko's cheeks reddened slightly as he sighed. Takao chuckled amusedly as he leaned forward towards the table, indicating that he was listening.

"I am afraid that I will have to leave now, because Kagami-kun can't seem to be able to stand another second with Nigou at home."

Takao chuckled and pointed at the window. "But Kagami even bought Nigou here to meet you from home. It's an improvement, Tet-chan!"

Kuroko's expression softened visibly as he glanced through the window and rested his gaze on his boyfriend struggling to get along with his dog. Furihata chuckled slightly as Kagami jumped back by at least 2 meters the moment Nigou licked his finger. Kuroko sighed. Some things never change, and it was still a long way to go before Kagami fully accepts Nigou.

"I'll be going now, then," Kuroko breathed and stood up, holding a small bag with him. "I'll see both of you next time."

"Bye-bye, Tet-chan!"

"Goodbye, Kuroko!"

Furihata and Takao both waved at Kuroko as he bowed and left the family restaurant with an unmistakable spring –save the small cringe that escaped his careful façade for a second- in his step. Takao gazed at the two's back until they disappeared amongst the crowd of people.

"Those two are like an old married couple, aren't they?" Furihata said as drank the cup of water situated on top of the table in one go. "I think I have to go now; I promised Sei that I would be home by 2pm, and it's already 1:45pm. I would rather avoid another situation with Sei sending an entire search party looking for me."

Takao guffawed as he recalled the event like it was yesterday. Akashi was panicking because Furihata didn't text him for 30 minutes after Furihata told him that he was on his way home. Akashi had sent an entire search party and police force looking for Furihata; and Takao had been there too, with Midorima. In the end, it turned out that Furihata had forgotten about time while playing with the cats by the street.

Takao chuckled as he finished up his own Latte and grabbed his own bag next to him. "You really did give Sei-chan a fright though! I guess I should leave too; I'll head over to Shin-chan's house right now."

Furihata chuckled as he raised his hand towards Takao for a handshake. "If Midorima-san does anything wrong to you, find me and Kuroko and we three will kick his ass together." Takao laughed as he shook hands with Furihata.

"Deal."

Furihata laughed too at that as they parted ways, and before Takao exited the restaurant, he could see Furihata typing something into his phone with a smile on his face. Takao grinned softly and left the family restaurant.

Takao walked under the bright sun overhead as he strolled down the familiar road to a certain bespectacled greenette's home. He whistled a tune and scrolled through his phone while pushing up his bangs, wishing that he had a clip to hold it up. His body ached, but it wasn't as bad as when he woke up this morning.

Suddenly, his phone was pulled away from his grasp by a pair of big hands. Takao looked up instinctively as dazzling green filled his vision. Takao smiled at the man before him and pouted the moment he tried to snatch his phone back from his boyfriend in front of him, yet failing to do so as the greenette raised the phone higher than he could reach without his back hurting.

"Takao, how many times do I need to tell you to not use your phone while walking?" His boyfriend's deep baritone voice rang out in front of him as he pocketed Takao's phone. "I'll be confiscating this for now."

Takao whined as he pulled Midorima's sleeves, trying to get his phone back from the offending 195cm tall giant in front of him. When Midorima didn't budge, Takao gave up and retorted to just pulling his sleeve with one hand.

"Shin-chan, you're so mean…" Takao sighed and resumed walking with Midorima beside him. "So why are you in this area?"

"I-I just had some business here," Midorima adjusted his glasses and looked away. Takao burst out laughing at the Tsundere's answer.

"Sure, Shin-chan," Takao mused as he laced his arm onto Midorima's, and when Midorima tensed up, Takao grinned. "Don't fret, Shin-chan; hawk-eye, remember?"

Midorima adjusted his glasses again, a small blush apparent on his features. After several seconds of silence and walking with their arms around the other, Midorima muttered softly, but loud enough for Takao to hear.

"… I am only here to bring back what belongs to me."

Takao looked up to Midorima and smiled as the taller boy blushed and looked away. Takao laughed again as he recalled the events that occurred in the morning. When Midorima glanced at him, he smirked at the older boy and licked his lips. Midorima's eyes darkened instantly and growled softly the moment Takao spoke in that sultry tone of his.

"I believe we had a promise on what's going to happen when I reach your home, Shin-chan?"
