Chapter 1: Aomine Daiki
"Just shoot!"
"B-But what if I miss?"
"Then just try again!"
"B-But this is my first time—!"
"I don't care just shoot!"
With all the strength he could muster up Hatori Shinji-kun shot the ball. His eyes were closed as he jumped as high as he could from the three-point line and slowly opened them just in time to see the orange basketball pass through the hoop with accurate precision. His eyes sparkled in glee at the sudden realization that he had made his first three-pointer ever. He turned to his friends, smiling brightly, awaiting their praise.
"I did it Aki!"
"…"
"…Aki?"
Aki looked pale as a ghost as he stared at his best friend. His hand was trembling when he pointed behind him. "A-A-A-Aomine-senpai…"
At the mention of the scary first-string member, Shinji froze and slowly turned to see his basketball a few inches from the resting form of the blue-haired ace of Teiko. He immediately noticed the bruise forming on the tanned male's forehead and squeaked in surprise when his eyes met a deadly glare. Aomine grabbed the ball and stared at the two third string players.
"Did you throw this?"
Shinji paled and began shaking when he stood up and began making his way towards them with slow and menacing footsteps. "I…I…"
Aomine threw the ball towards the ball rack to the side with much force that it rattled the metal container, He asked again. "Did you throw this?"
Shinji immediately bowed to his waist and shut his eyes readying himself for the beating that was sure to come his way. "I'm sorry senpai!"
Aki was about to scream for help when Aomine raised his hand. "Senpai don't—Eh?"
"Thank you!" Aomine was grinning like a fool and patting Shinji on the head like one would do a puppy who recently learned a new trick.
"S-S-Senpai…?"
"Thanks kid!" Aomine pushed Shinji by the shoulders so that he was standing straight and began patting him by the shoulders. "You made my day!"
"W-What?"
Aomine thanked him once more and ran towards the exit with a spring in his step. The two third string students could only watch in horror when the tall male suddenly began skipping towards the school building. A moment later the two found themselves collapsed on the floor, still staring at the exit half expecting the tanned male to burst in and start beating them half to death like they anticipated only he never did. A senpai from the second string found them an hour later still rooted on their spot under the hoop and was looking worried telling them that the whole third string had been going around looking for the two of them. They shakily stood up and allowed the senior member to guide them out of the school all the while telling him what had transpired earlier on with the feared ace of the first string.
"Oh… yeah don't worry about that guy, he's not gonna come after you or anything."
Shinji wouldn't have any of that. "B-But I hit him! Y-You should've seen the bruise I left him senpai!"
The senior could only laugh. "Like I said, don't worry. If anything he likes you now, and lord knows that's worse than being hated by him."
"W-Why?" Aki was still fearful for his friend's life. "I thought for sure Aomine-senpai would kick our teeth in!"
Senpai smirked. "Trust me. You just gave him a ticket to the nurse's office, getting back at you is the last thing on his mind right now."
"I-Isn't that a bad thing?"
Senpai stopped and stared at his two underclassmen. "…Haven't you ever been to the nurse's office?"
"No… Why?"
"Oh boy…" Senpai sighed. "You're missing a lot."
"Huh?"
Aomine grinned as he spotted the double doors leading to Valhalla. He pulled the door open and grinned at the sight before him.
"Sakura!"
"When did I give you permission to call me by my first name Aomine-kun?"
Sakura Haruno, Teiko's beloved school nurse.
Aomine smiled in bliss as he stared at the pink haired beauty sitting at the corner office of the clinic. She was reading a book, ignoring the world around her and a steaming cup of coffee was placed beside her. Aomine let his eyes wander up those long shapely legs that were crossed in a very enticing manner, contained by black short (very short) skirt. A red top with a low cut giving him a good eyeful of very generous breasts. Her delicate pink locks were swept over her shoulder gave of a very elegant look, and her emerald eyes met his in a very slow manner that caused the tanned male to blush even more.
"Really… You're such a kid," Sakura stood up and set aside the book. She made her way to the blue haired teen, eyeing the bruise with worry. "Did you hit your head again?"
Aomine grinned when the pink haired woman stopped before him, her face inches from him as she inspected the bruise with an annoyed expression. Her fingers felt cool from being inside the air conditioned clinic for too long, and he could smell her faint floral scent from the close proximity. He almost sighed in bliss but held it in when she ran her thumb softly on the forming bump at his crown.
"I-I got hit by a basketball during practice." He cursed at his stutter but sighed when her delicate hands caressed his forehead in a careful manner.
Sakura frowned and pulled him into the office. "Sit down while I get some ice okay?"
"Hai~"
"Geez, kids these days." Sakura muttered and went to the mini fridge behind her desk. "You know you're the fifth person this week to go here with a bruised head. I know that Teiko's sports department is the best around but I expected more responsibility from the athletes." She pulled out an ice tray and headed towards a large metal cabinet and pulled out an ice pack with a grumpy frown. "Out of all the schools I've been to, Teiko has the clumsiest athletes I've ever seen."
Aomine smirked. "Sensei, you can't expect athletes to grow stronger without getting a few scratches here and there."
"I know, but I swear you kids make it a point to get injured when I'm on duty" She sighed. "Honestly Kabuto-sensei is a better doctor than I am."
"Maybe, but Kabuto-sensei isn't as pretty as you are."
"…"
"…"
"…Heh," Sakura smirked and placed the ice bag on his head in a non-too gentle manner. "You're ten years too early to start flirting with me, Aomine-kun."
Aomine winced at the pressure and pouted. "That hurt!"
"You can't expect athletes to grow stronger without getting a few scratches here and there," She teased, throwing his words back at him.
Aomine blushed and tried to look at anywhere but the smiling woman in front of him. "…Stop teasing me."
Sakura laughed and pinched his tanned cheek. "Aww but teasing my cute little students is the best part of my job!"
"H-Hey stop it!
"Ara! Are you blushing Aomine-kun?"
"I-I'm serious—Sakura-sensei!"
She laughed once more and made her way to her desk, leaving a blushing Aomine on one of the beds. "Come find me when you're taller than me, brat."
"…Will you wait for me?"
Sakura grinned at the cheesy request and turned to look at the middle school basketball player, holding a hello kitty printed ice bag on his forehead. "It depends,"
Aomine looked hopeful. "On what?"
"Will you give me something to be proud of to say that you're my boyfriend?"
Aomine smirked in a cocky manned and jabbed a thumb to his chest. "You're looking at Japan's number one player, Sakura."
"Eh?" She placed a hand on her hip and stared at him with a teasing smile. "Number one you say? But a little birdy told me you haven't been to practice lately."
He shrugged. "Doesn't matter if I practice or not, the only one who can beat me is me."
Sakura hummed in mock fascination and walked over to the arrogant male, who only blushed when she finally stopped in front of him. She leaned forward in a very provocative manner that made the younger male conjure up some very graphic images that a boy his age seem to have trouble controlling, the teasing smile on her face didn't help one bit! He blushed when she brought her hand up to ruffle his messy blue hair.
"Arrogance isn't an attractive trait in a man Aomine-kun," She flicked his forehead. "And who knows, maybe someday someone who's working hard to be the best in the game will crush that ugly motto of yours."
"Wha—"
"And another thing," She brought her lips closer to his ear and a delicious shiver made its way down his spine. "Satsuki-chan is on her way."
"HAH!?"
Sakura stood up on full height and pulled out her phone from her pocket. A picture of Momoi was on the screen with a call button.
The door slid open with much unnecessary force. "Dai-chan are you skipping practice again!?"
Momoi stalked into the room and grabbed the taller male by the ear and proceeded on dragging him by the ear.
Said male cried out in pain. "Satsuki! Let go of my ear you stupid woman!"
"Shut up! Ahomine! Ganguro! Jerk!" She pulled harder. "Why are you bothering Sa-chan-sensei again!?"
"Satsuki-chan, please just call me Sakura-sensei."
"Sa-chan-sensei doesn't need you bothering her! You're not even injured!"
"Ow! Let go!"
Momoi pushed him out of the door and bowed in apology to the amused older pinkette. "I'm sorry Sa-chan-sensei, Dai-chan is a big idiot—" an indignant yell was heard "—and he keeps on skipping club practices."
Sakura laughed. "I'm sure Akashi-kun will punish Aomine-kun for being such a troublemaker."
A yelp was heard outside.
Momoi beamed. "That's right! Akashi-kun will be happy to know that Sa-chan-sensei is helping out with the basketball club. Well then, I'll drag Dai-chan back to the gym, see you later Sa-chan-sensei!"
Sakura laughed and watched the smaller pink haired girl literally drag the tanned basketball player outside the school building who was blushing to his roots. The sound of curtains being drawn back caught her attention and she grinned at the boy who was staring with a blank expression that conveyed his disappointment in her on so many levels.
She giggled. "Did I wake you?"
"You were being awfully loud."
She ruffled his hair and urged him to lie down once more. "Sorry about that, Aomine-kun was just doing his weekly visits."
"I really do wish you'd stop teasing them."
She laughed and kissed his forehead. "Don't take away my only fun."
He sighed and shook his head. "Honestly, you shouldn't play with an innocent middle school student's feelings."
"I'm not!" She sat by his head and began combing her fingers through soft baby blue locks. "I am looking forward to what basketball will do to that boy in a few years."
"…Pedophile."
Sakura laughed and poked his soft cheek. "Aww, Tetsuya-kun! You know I only have eyes for you~"
Yay!
Experiencing major writer's block but managed to squeeze this one in. I've been hooked on KnB fanfics for awhile now and decided to make a short one-shot series for this.
Next: Kise-kun!
