With Love, Yeah Right

Chapter 7


Kuroko was prepared to see Kagami and act like the past months had never happened, or at least didn't mean anything. He showed up at practice just like he normally would every other day, Kagami wasn't there though. And for some reason, that really made Kuroko angry. So what if they had a big break-up? Kuroko was the one who had to limp home and practice the next day, not Kagami. If anything he should be the one missing! So why was Kagami not here?!

"Kagami, I hope your really enjoying your day off right now, because when I see you again I'm going to kill you." Riko muttered softly to herself, talking about quadruple and maybe six times practice.

Kuroko dribbled his ball, "maybe you should do ten times, and make him make 30 three-pointer shots every day after practice or else he can't leave."

"Good, that's good start Kuroko. I'm thinking more like 50 though."

Kuroko shrugged, "why not 100?"

"Guys! You're really planning on killing Kagami!" Hyuuga said shockingly.

"Kill, scar beyond recognition, whatever makes him suffer more." Riko said before she started discussing punishments with Kuroko.

Where was Kagami? Was on every minds as they steered clear from their captain. Where was he? With his mind fucked up, his heart acting weird, his urges even worse than before, and scowl scaring off everyone within a mile radius, Kagami was trying to calm down by relieving some of his stress. The nurse had been in her office this morning, so a supply closet was the setting instead. It didn't matter where though today, Kagami just needed some help.

"Kagami-,Kag-ahmie! S-stop!"

It wasn't working.

"Kagami!"

He was even hard, there was nothing.

"Fuck Kagami! Will you stop ramming into me!"

Kagami quickly pulled out and got redressed, leaving the room. It wasn't the same, nothing was the same. There was no release, no feelings, though the urges were still there. No, they weren't urges anymore, but more like cravings. His body, they didn't crave these random males, they craved Kuroko. He wasn't an option anymore since they... they...

"FUCK!" Kagami yelled punching a locker.

Kuroko had screwed him over, he had really screwed him over. Falling in love with a third player wasn't apart of their deal, only seeing each other wasn't apart of their deal either though. It was completely unfair! Kuroko had basically said to use him instead of everybody else in Kagami's life and what had he done in the end? Fucking stabbed him in the back. Kagami was pissed, he was pissed beyond pissed, and it was strange. This wasn't the first time he's been dissed by a male who suddenly found their other half, but the fact that it was Kuroko rubbed him the wrong way.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!"

What was wrong with him?! Why did it only have to be Kuroko now?! Why did, why... why... Kagami took a deep breath and sighed out when he heard the school bell ringing. Without a second thought he started walking towards class. Sitting in the desk behind him though, staring out the window was Kuroko. Kagami's chest started feeling weird as he felt an erection coming on. No though, Kuroko was a bastard. Fuck him.

Those eyes turned and stared right into his. It was only for a split second before Kagmai ran, that second was enough to send shivers down Kagami's spine. Memories of their last time together said his brain into haywire and he simply had to get away. He had to, he had to, he had...

Kuroko was acting weird that day. Very weird. Thinking back on it he probably didn't want to sleep with Kagami, he probably just wanted to break things off with him there but felt pity for the large man.

No, Kuroko wanted to be in charge. If that was true then he would have just let Kagmai fuck him. No, Kuroko was the one in control and it felt... different. Everything felt... deeper, the kisses, the connections, and warmer too. Kuroko was acting weird, it wasn't because of the goodbye though.

Kuroko had called him a fucking idiot.

He had confessed seeing someone else.

He never loved him.

...

Love? Where did that come in from? Love wasn't even in this category, or maybe it was if Kuroko loved the someone else. When did he have time to see someone else though? Everyday the two of them would be together, whether it practice or screwing or even kissing, so when did this other random guy come in? There was a secret, a reason why Kuroko did all of this. If he hadn't caught Kagami that one day, none of this would have happened. Everything would have been the same as it was before.

Kuroko had saw him though and almost immediately after wanted to be with him.

Kuroko wanted him.

Did he find him attractive?

Secret... secret...

Did... a secret he couldn't tell, it wasn't the one where he confessed his sexuality, it was one that he couldn't tell Kagami... something personal... something special... something that had to do with him. He had to do something to earn that secret, what was it he had to do though?

Did it even matter anymore though? They were done, everything was over. That one pleasure of his was gone. The only thing left to do was forget about it all. Forget. Forget it all.

He didn't care that much about Kuroko anyway.


Kuroko gave up too quickly. He realized that as the days passed into weeks. Kagami could never love him, maybe he could have one day. Maybe it was just regret. He had given everything to Kagami only to end up with nothing. Things were back to normal between them though they rarely talked, life was the same now. Kuroko had lost something though. Not his light, but his heart. He should have fought more. He's fought harder for basketball, did he just not love Kagami enough? Was his love not that strong? He was still bothered seeing Kagami around those other men, well maybe not see but he knew. He had returned to who he was once between, so Kuroko returned to being clueless.

There was a regret there though and alone, Kuroko would remember everything. Those touches against him, those kisses all along him, his breath, his hair, his eyes. Now someone else was enjoying all of those. It was going to happen soon, Kuroko was going to come crawling back. He could feel it in his bones, feel it deep, deep, inside of him. Kagami had left a mark too deep to heal and hide. Until the feeling became too much though, Kuroko was going to try. Try and try and try until one day, he was standing outside of Kagami's apartment building. He took a step forward, a step back, two steps up the stairs, jumped back down from them. He turned to leave, looked back, pivoted back, ran a few steps away, and had this whole dance before he started running.

He had lasted so long, he couldn't give in like this. No, he could last more. Maybe he could find release in other people like Kagami had, it didn't have to be him. It didn't have to be him! Kuroko tripped and skidded across the ground. He stared at the asphalt, tears stinging in his eyes as he cried silently to himself.

It did. It could have only been him because Kuroko loves him. He loves him. Kagami was more than a light, more than a friend, a fuck buddy, a teammate. Kagami meant so much more than all of those things and Kuroko never had the chance to tell him because he was scared. It didn't hide that fact that it wasn't true though, that even more than basketball Kuroko had seemed to fall that deep in love with Kagami.

"Why the fuck are you doing lying on the ground?"

Kuroko's whole being froze. His body instantly stiffed up and he tried to use his vanishing drive to make him invisible enough to get away. Kagami had grabbed his hand though when he tried to run and tugged him roughly back.

"I asked you a-... why are you crying?"

"It doesn't concern you." Kuroko answered chilly, it did nothing due to his tears though.

Kagami watched his tears fall, watched as his noticed him bleeding from several spots and finally noticed that he was trying to hide himself. From him or from the people around him, Kagami had no idea. He simply tightened his grip on the boy and started tugging him to his apartment.

"Let me go Kagami." Kuroko growled.

"You're bleeding."

"I'm fine."

"Okay, your fine. I'm still going to patch you up, we certainly can't play if one of our star players is fucked up."

"No Kagami! Let me go! Let me go! LET ME GO!" Kuroko yelled shoving him away.

Kagami nearly fell and turned back to Kuroko with a fierce glare, it vanished though as he saw how crippled Kuroko looked. His body was shaking, his eyes wide, more tears falling as he shook his head and looked like he was trying to defend himself.

"I can't go in, I can't go in." He whispered.

"Look all I'm trying to do is help! I respect that you found someone, I won't try anything if that's what your worried about! Just let me help you."

"But if I go up there, I'll want you back."

Kagami's heart beat through his ears while Kuroko started taking steps away. He couldn't resist, his body was yearning out for Kagami's touch again. It wanted him, it wanted him badly. Kuroko couldn't give in though, he had to leave.

"WHAT KIND OF FUCKED UP SHIT IS THAT?!" Kagami yelled.

He wasn't about to let his prey escape. Oh no, he reached out and yanked Kuroko's shirt towards him, holding their faces inches apart.

"YOU CAN'T BREAK UP WITH ME AND THEN SAY YOU WANT ME BACK! SHIT LIKE THAT DOESN'T WORK KUROKO! IF YOU WANTED ME IN THE FIRST PLACE, THEN WHY THE HELL DID YOU LEAVE ME FOR ANOTHER MAN!"

"THERE WAS NO OTHER MAN! I ONLY SAID THAT BECAUSE YOU WOULDN'T HAVE ACCEPTED THE TRUTH!"

"WHAT TRUTH? THAT YOU'RE GAY? THAT YOU'VE BEEN CHEATING ON ME?! ENOUGH WITH THE BULLSHIT, IF CHEATING ON ME WASN'T THE TRUTH THEN WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME?! TELL ME WHY AND I'LL LET YOU GO!"

"BECAUSE I WAS IN LOVE WITH YOU!"

Kuroko gasped and covered his mouth. He wanted to be honest for once to him, he didn't mean to be that honest though. No, he didn't. Kagami's grip seemed to loosen up a little bit as he stared confused as hell at Kuroko.

"Huh?"

"I told you the truth, now let me go." Kuroko struggled.

"Fuck that, what the hell did you just say?"

"I love you, okay? I was in love with you, that's the only reason why I wanted you to chose me to be your fuck buddy. I was in love with you. But it turned out you weren't gay and then it turned out you had this phobia of being gay, but then you started changing. I thought it was for me, I made myself believe it was because of me, that you were actually falling for me, but then I had to wake myself up and realize that I was nothing but an easy lay to you. A place to store your cock for the winter, and I couldn't put myself through that anymore. I couldn't. So I had to leave, because I want love Kagami. I don't want this, I never wanted this. All I wanted was to be close to you, to have a piece of your heart. You aren't willing giving that out though so I can't stay and let my heart break every time I realize this. Now let me go."

"You can't just say that out of the blue like that."

"It wasn't out of the blue, you just never cared to notice."

"I did notice though!" Kagami yelled.

Kuroko's eyes widened, "then why didn't you ever do anything?"

"Because I only just noticed after you confessed!" Kagami confessed.

He felt it, all those feelings had a name for them. Love. It was love. Kuroko loved him. A male loved him. It was weird, strange, not normal. Kagami wasn't gay, he didn't go that way, why did he keep telling him these things though? Why did it matter if he was gay or straight? Love was love, no matter what shape, size, or form, and Kagami... Kagami... He didn't know.

"I don't know." He said squeezing his eyes shut.

"I didn't expect you too."

There was tug on his hand and Kagami quickly realized Kuroko was leaving him again. Only this time, he knew the truth about everything. He knew how to stop it too.

"I don't know what to say, I can show you what I feel though Kuroko." Kagami said looked down at him.

"Please, you've shown me enough. I don't want this anymore Kagmai." Kuroko shook his head as he was pulled into his chest.

"Please." Kagami begged pressing their foreheads together.

"If you do it I won't be able to leave again." Kuroko cried.

"You won't want too." Kagami said before pressing their lips together.

It was soft, gently. A little experiment as Kagami simply pressed their lips to one another, because he licked Kuroko's bottom lip and it became more. A hand reach out to clutch Kuroko's hair, tugging it softly so he'd open his mouth and let Kagami in. Tongues danced with each other and Kagami pulled Kuroko closer to him, closer than humanly possible he'd like to believe. Kuroko was stuck there against him, crying out tears of he didn't know what.

"You showed me your love last time Kuroko, let me show you mine now. Please." Kagami whispered against his lips.

He didn't leave time for an answer as Kagami dragged Kuroko into his apartment building, waiting in the hellish elevator for a minute before making it into his apartment. There Kagami slowly wrapped his arms around Kuroko's waist, sprawling his hands flat on Kuroko's stomach.

"From the first moment we ever did it, I've always felt something here." Kagami sighed out in his ear.

Kuroko flinched lightly as his hands started working their way up his shirt. Lightly, his fingers traced his abs, a gently touch and tickle, working their up to his ribs.

"There'd always be a knot here, and it'd move up, all the way up." Kagami whispered lightly kissing his neck.

Kuroko flinched again and raised his hands up as Kagami pulled his shirt off of him.

"Just thinking about you Kuroko would turn me on, just seeing you sweat during practice made me want to jump you. It was the reason why I screwed you so many times at school, I just couldn't keep my hands off you."

"Ka-kagami." Kuroko started shivering.

His hands trailed back down to his pants, brushing against his member. Kuroko moaned as he slowly pulled the zipper down, letting his pants slide off along with his boxers.

"One time wasn't enough, I needed to have you again, and again, and again." Kagami said stripping his clothes off with ease.

Kagami lifted Kuroko up and pressed their lips together, slowly teasing and taunting him, gnawing on his bottom lip as he led them to the bedroom. Gently, he laid Kuroko down and exhaled loudly in his mouth, pulling back.

"Is this what you felt every time you were with me?" Kagami asked, his eyes shining diamonds.

Kuroko made a face Kagami had never seen before, a sort of sad and confused face. He reached out to stroke his cheek, tracing his bottom lip with his thumb.

"All those times, I never saw. I treated you like nothing more than a sex toy, I never once tried to..." He sighed pressing their foreheads together.

Slowly he started kissing him again, more, more, harder and harder. Their teeth banked together, their saliva fusing, Kagami craving more of Kuroko's taste. The kisses turned heated, breathless. Kagami didn't want to part so he didn't, exhaling loudly out his nose. Kuroko cried and wrapped his arms around Kagami, kissing him back just as fiercely.

"I love you Kagami." Kuroko cried out.

Kagami looked down as he covered his eyes with an arm, tears streaming down. There was a small smile on Kagami's face as he positioned himself over Kuroko, slowly pushing himself in. Kuroko mewed and spread his legs out wider, Kagami leaning down to kiss his tears.

"I won't make you cry anymore Tetsuya, I promise." Kagami said as he started moving.

Kuroko stiffed and closed his eyes, focusing on the butterflies in the pit of his stomach. They started off slow, just like Kagami, but they took off when the pace started getting faster. Kuroko moaned and panted, meeting his strides. Every time Kagami would move, Kuroko would lift his hips up and meet for a steady rhythm. Kagami never took his eyes off him and Kuroko tried his best to do the same, he couldn't stop this overwhelming feeling though.

"Kagami- Kagami I'm gonna-" He cried out.

"I know, it's alright." Kagami said leaning down.

He sealed them lips together as he moved even faster, wanting to release with him. Kuroko cried, thinking to himself I love you. Through the kiss he had a feeling that Kagami was answering his reply, giving him an I love you right back.


The team all stopped what they were doing and turned their attention to the new couple that walked inside the gym hand in hand. Kuroko had his usual face, if you really looked there was a hint of a smile, while Kagami was looking elsewhere, scratching the back of his head. It was silent for a long time before Kagami looked back and glared.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ALL LOOKING AT?!"

Everyone flinched and went back to practice, all except Riko who raised an eyebrow at the two and walked over.

"So this is the reason why you two have been acting so weird lately, I should have known better. Kagami was being an asshole of a boyfriend, wasn't he Kuroko?" Riko asked.

"HEY!" Kagami yelled.

Kuroko shrugged, "pretty much."

"No wonder you helped me figure out his punishment for ditching."

"WHAT?! KUROKO YOU-"

"I assume that everything is okay again?" She asked, the two of them ignoring Kagami's rants.

"Better than okay, forgive us for our performance. We're willing to work even harder to make up for our slack, six times practice if you so desire."

"Kuroko! Why are you negotiating-"

"I like the sound of that, tell me if Kagami ever acts up again, I'll give him ten times the practice. Glad you two finally came out the closet, go ahead and get changed. We have a lot of work to do." Riko said then blew her whistle.

Kuroko started walking towards the boy's locker room, dragging Kagami with him.

"What the hell was that Kuroko?! We would have been fine if we just stayed quiet, six times practice! Are you trying to kill us?! And what's with the punishment?! Were you the one who told coach to make me stay after school until I made-"

Kuroko silenced Kagami with a short kiss against his lips, "enough of the past Kagami. Let's focus on the here and now."

Kagami pouted lightly and glared at the smaller man, leaning down to press their lips together again.

"You owe me, I'm expecting you to pay back with interest as well."

Kuroko rolled his eyes and opened up his locker, placing his bag inside before he started stripping off his uniform.

"We never did it in the boy's locker room, have we? It'll be a start." Kagami said looming behind him.

"Kagami-" Kuroko stuttered feeling his body get pressed against the lockers.

"I like this scenario a lot." Kagmai said.

"I can tell." Kuroko said, feeling his member against his back, "but we have to practice."

"It'll be just a quickly, I won't hurt you. I love you, remember?"

"What if they come in?"

"Everyone's practicing, we could have been done by now if you stopped complaining." Kagami said loosening his belt.

"Ka-kah-kagami!"

Riko, along with everyone else in the basketball team, all stood outside the boy's locker room with an ear pressed against the door.

"S-should we rea-really be listening to this?" He asked, his face a bright red.

"If they didn't want us to hear, they wouldn't be doing it in the locker room." Riko said, blood dripping down her nose.

"Wow, they are really going at it." Kyoshi chuckled.

All of a sudden the door slammed open and everyone fell down, face to face with an extremely pissed off Kagami with his pants on and a shy Kuroko in the corner of the room, a pair of boxers on.

"You're dead." Kagami glared.

"RUN! PRACTICE IS CANCELLED FOR TODAY!" Riko yelled running away.

"GET BACK HERE YOU PERVERTS!" Kagami yelled.

Kuroko stayed in the room and shook his head, placing a hand over his mouth as he shook his head.

"I'M GOING TO KILL EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU!"

What else did he expect if they did it in the locker room was everyone else was still there?
