What? Working on two stories at once? WHAT IS THAT?
Inconsiderate...its inconsiderate...but OH WELL inspiration comes when inspiration comes!

Disclaimer: I don't own Kuroko no Basket...there would be SO MUCH ROMANCE if I did :0


Kuroko blinked and stared blankly at the scene in front of him.

His old basketball coach was on her hand and knees in front of him.

"Please, help me Kuroko-kun!"

"Eh?"

Kuroko gently helped Riko into his daycare center and offered her a juice box. "Sorry, that's just about all we have"

"Ah, no...Thank you, Kuroko-kun" Riko whimpered, taking the box with a slight bow of her head.

"Do you mind explaining what you need, Riko-san?"

Riko gulped, tears began to flow, "Its those damn Generation of Miracles"

"Generation of Miracles? Ah, that group of middle school basketball players? Weren't you in charge of recruiting them to Seirin?" Kuroko mused, cocking his head to the side in thought.

"I did recruit them!" Riko whinned, "but now they're threatening to leave! They're threatening to transfer to different schools with better offers!"

"But doesn't Seirin have the best basketball reputation? You've won every competition pretty consistently."

"...a reputation you helped build" Riko smiled up at her old friend.

"You're too kind, Riko-san. Now, why would they want to transfer schools?"

"The Miragen were given their own dorm house near the campus. They have a more lenient schedule and living situation than anyone else. They're even given a house keeper to cook and clean for them...but they keep running off everyone I hire!" Riko started to tear up again.

"Ah, they're high school students shouldn't they be able to take care of themselves?"Kuroko shrugged.

"You would think, wouldn't you?! But they're completely incapable, I mean I wouldn't even step foot in that place! It's so messy and the GOM...they're...they're just evil!"

"You shouldn't call your students evil, Riko-san"

"You haven't met them!"

"I stand by what I said"

Riko sighed, "Anyway...the Principal is threatening to fire me if I don't keep the GOM happy..."

"Eh?" Kuroko looked at Riko with surprised eyes, the rest of his face staying neutral.

"I don't care about losing my job! I can get another one easily, I mean...I have an amazing reputation...it's not the job...its the place. I've worked there since we graduated...its where I met you, Hyuuga, Teppei, and that Bakagami...Its...It means a lot to me" Riko looked away hiding the blush on her face.

Kuroko could understand where she was coming from. They had all been through a lot together and Seirin is where their friendships had started. To think that the principal would fire her over such a thing was ridiculous to Kuroko. 'That fickle, fickle man' Kuroko thought with a sigh.

"So what exactly are you asking of me?"

"If anyone can tame the GOM it's you, Kuroko!"

"I'm sorry...what?"


He couldn't believe he had agreed to this...this was ridiculous. Kuroko sighed and looked around the GOM house...he certainly had his work cut out for him. The house was rather sizable, bigger than Kuroko thought it would be, though it would make sense at 5 grown men were expected to live there. The house was filthy...even the kids in his daycare knew how to pick up after themselves, how was it that 5 grown men didn't? He sighed looking at the massive dust build up and the large amount of trash spread everywhere, 'better keep my shoes on for now...' He thought as he began to wander the home, picking up the trash he could. "What is this?" Kuroko wondered outloud touching a rather sharp looking axe splayed on the living room coffee table.

"Don't touch that!" A voice barked. Kuroko took a step back to see a tall man with green hair snatching the axe off the table.

"Ah, you noticed me?"

"Idiot! Like I wouldn't notice someone touching my lucky item!" The man retorted, adjusting his glasses.

"You must be Midorima-san. A pleasure to meet you, my name is Kuroko Tetsuya, I will be your house keeper for the time being. You're not going to bring such a thing to school, are you?"

"What? Of course I am, as I said, its my lucky item for today"

"But you would get into trouble for bringing it into a classroom would you not?" "No one will say anything about it, its fine. What do you care anyway?"

"It could be dangerous"

"So what? Who asked you?" Midorima barked turning to leave when suddenly Kuroko appeared before him. "What the..."

Kuroko put a hand over Midorima's on the axe, "Pardon me, I know your fascination of the occult, and I mean no disrespect, in fact I find having a passion or hobby such as this to be rather charming, but I cannot allow you to bring an object like this to school, it is dangerous"

Midorima gazed into Kuroko's eyes, 's-so...blue' he blushed and shook the thought from his head. "I can't just leave it here, now get out of my way"

"Your fortune for today, what did it say your lucky item was, exactly?"

"an...an axe"

"Then something like this will do as well right?" Kuroko reached into his pockets and fished out an inflatable axe. He unraveled it and began to inflate it. "Something like this will be much safer"

"That...why do you have something like that with you?!"

"I run a daycare center, inflatable toys are a good way to keep children entertained"

"Are you comparing me with small children?"

"I wouldn't dream of it" Midorima carefully examined the other's face. He was stoic, no sign of ridicule or mockery. "Will you trade with me, Midorima-kun?"

"I-it's not like I'm doing this because you asked me to! This just seems like less of a bother to carry around" Midorima blushed.

'Wow, a real life tsundere' Kuroko thought with a smile, "Yes, I understand. You are a very considerate man, Midorima-kun" Kuroko bowed slightly.

"Wh-whatever!" Midorima mumbled before taking his leave. 'Somehow, I think it would be fun teasing him' Kuroko chuckled.

"Are you the new housekeeper Riko-san hired?" Kuroko turned towards the source of the voice. A short man, around Kuroko's height, with blazing red hair and beautiful heterochromatic eyes was leaning against the door frame, eyes fixed on him.

'Will all the GOM be able to see me? My, no wonder they're considered so remarkable...but first...' "Ah, yes I am. You must be Akashi-kun. A pleasure, I am Kuroko Tetsuya" Kuroko bowed his head slightly at the man before him. Akashi approached Kuroko, now standing about a foot or so from him. "Shorty..." Kuroko said before he could stop himself. He kept his face impassive, gauging the red head's reaction. Akashi had a vein popping out from his forehead, his eyes staring into Kuroko's sky blue ones with a ferocity Kuroko had never seen before.

Akashi lifted a hand, gripping Kuroko's head with his hand, "You've got some nerve, Tetsuya" Kuroko looked at the man with the same emotionless face and pinched Akashi's hand, who immediately remove it from Kuroko's face.

"I am a great deal older than you, Akashi-kun, please refrain from touching my face and please don't call me Tetsuya"

"You may be older, but you work for me now, right?"

"I work for Seirin" Kuroko replied simply. Akashi stared at the shorter man, he had been surprised, initially. The man had almost no presence, if he had not seen him talking to Midorima he might have not even noticed him. Besides that, those beautiful sky blue eyes and that ridiculously soft looking sky blue hair. Add in the fact that the man had dared to pinch him and had actually stood up to him...well, the young Akashi heir was interested, indeed.

"Pardon me, Tetsuya" Akashi smirked. "But it seems like I am going to be late for school if I linger any longer. Please have my laundry done and folded in my room by the time I come back, and I would like to have tofu soup for dinner. Goodbye now" Before Kuroko could protest the man had already left the house. Akashi walked to school with a sinister smile on his face. 'Breaking this one will be fun'

"Ah I don't have enough snacks for today..." Kuroko heard someone mumble from the kitchen. Curious, Kuroko made his way there to find a gigantic man with purple hair and lazy eyes searching through the cabinets. "Ahhh noo...I guess I'll have to be late to school...I have to go to the snack shop..." Kuroko heard the man mumble.

"That's no good, Murasakibara-san" The giant turned his head to the source of the voice but couldn't see anyone.

"Ara...maybe I'm imagining things?" He pondered aloud. Kuroko sighed and gently tucked on the giant's shirt sleeve.

"Over here, Murasakibara-san"

"Eh...cotton candy?" Atushi wondered picking Kuroko up and holding him close, he sniffed his hair and slightly cocked his head to the side. "How strange...it smells more like vanilla..."

"Please put me down, Murasakibara-san" "Ah, sorry"

Kuroko sighed, straightening his clothes. "My name is Kuroko Tetsuya, I am your new house keeper. Nice to meet you, Murasakibara-kun"

"How do you know my name?"

"Riko-san gave me a short synopsis on each of you. You're taller than she said you were"

"hehhh...are you making fun of my height? I'll crush you, you know"

"No, not at all. In fact, I wish I was as tall as you...I'm barely 168 cm" Kuroko replied as stoic as ever.

Murasakibara examined the little man, "It's good to be short, you look cute, Kurochin" Murasakibara gently pat Kuroko on the head.

"Such a thing is not something a man is happy hearing" Kuroko sighed batting the hand away. "What were you saying about being late for school?"

"Ah, I dont have any snacks left" Murasakibara mumbled pointing to the empty cabinet.

"Do you need snacks to get to school, Murasakibara-kun?"

The giant nodded, "Or else I'll become testy...and want to crush everyone"

To Atushi's surprise, Kuroko simply nodded, "I also have a bad temper when I am hungry. Will these carry you over till you reach school?" Kuroko reached into his bag and pulled out a bag of vanilla hard candies.

"Wah...are you giving me all of these, Kurochin?"

Kuroko nodded, "Now please go to school. I expect you will be on time if you leave now."

"Eh...will you be here when I get back, Kurochin?" The giant asked cocking his head to the side and popping a candy into his mouth.

"More than likely" Kuroko replied with a soft smile.

"Ah, that's good. I'll share snacks with you when I get back, Kurochin" Murasakibara smiled heading toward the door. Kuroko waved a small goodbye and sighed.

"There should be two more..."

As if one cue, a man with blonde hair and golden eyes came running into the kitchen. "How meaaaaannnn...how come no one woke me up too!?" The man was crying. Kuroko raised an eyebrow, unsure of how to deal with him. "Nyaaa why are they so cruel to me?" The man continued to cry as he gathered his things. Kuroko sighed and walked over to him, gently patting him on the head. "eh...what the?!" He flew back in shock, "a ghost?!"

"I am not a ghost, Kise-kun" Kuroko sighed. He always thought such personalities were exhausting.

"H..how do you know my name?! Are you a stalker?!" Kuroko sighed, "Kuroko Tetsuya is my name, I am no stalker. I am your new house keeper and I would appreciate it if you would not yell so early in the morning Kise-kun"

"Ah...sorry" Kise mumbled. "You-" "If you don't leave now, you will be rather late, Kise-kun" "Ah! You're right! Bye Kurokochi!" Kise ran for the door. 'Eh? I called him Kurokochi? But I don't know him...why am I showing him respect?...Ah...but he was kinda cute' Kise thought as he ran to school.

"Right...then the last one should be..." Kuroko mumbled making his way up the stairs. He passed the rooms until he found one labeled 'Aomine Daiki' Kuroko stood in front of the door, he placed his ear to it and could hear the gentle snores of the sleeping teen. Kuroko attempted to open the door and sighed when he found the door was locked. He quickly pulled out the lockpick he kept in his bag and began to work on the door. 'Good thing the kids often lock themselves in - or else it would be impossible for me to get in' He thought with a smile. Once in the room, he approached the sleeping ganguro. "Please wake up, Aomine-kun" Kuroko gently shook the man, but he merely grumbled and flipped over. 'He's as bad as Kagami' Kuroko thought after the third gently nudge. 'Ah...then I wonder if...' Kuroko gently kneeled down and place his mouth near Aomine's ear and blew a short breath into it. Aomine immediately jumped up from the bed, rubbing his ear against his shoulder.

"Argh! What the hell was that?!" He cursed. "Eh...no ones in here?" Aomine looked around.

"I am here, Aomine-kun" Aomine fell back and screamed. "What the hell? Who the hell? How the fu-"

"Please refrain from using such crass language in front of me, Aomine-kun." Kuroko sighed. Aomine let out another scream when he realized Kuroko was standing directly in front of him. Before he could scream a third time, Kuroko lifted a hand, silencing him. "My name is Kuroko Tetsuya, your new housekeeper and you are late for school, Aomine-kun"

Aomine rolled his eyes, "It doesn't matter if I go to school. I just have to be at the games. Now let me sleep" Aomine yawned crawling back into bed. Kuroko's eyes lowered and he delivered a swift jab to Aomine's side.

The teen yelped and fell off the bed. "What the hell, Tetsu?!"

"I understand if school is not your thing. There are many paths in life, and school just isn't for everyone. I get that, I respect that...however.." Kuroko knelt down in front of Aomine, a severe look in his face, "You are allowed to live in this house because the school allows it. By accepting housing here you give your word to the school that you will, at the very least, act like a student. It may have been unspoken, but you gave them your word, you gave Riko-san your word. A man doesn't go back on his word, Aomine-kun. Now please get dressed and go to school. You are already late" Kuroko stood to leave the room, stopping in the door way to look back at the stunned Aomine, "And don't call me Tetsu"
