A/N:Well, what can I say? I recently started reading Kuroko no Basket and I just got hooked on it. And when I saw that there were not nearly enough fanfics for this awesome fandom, I became inspired to contribute this fic of my own. I hope you all enjoy it!

Summary: When Aomine accidentally steals Kuroko's first kiss, he must 'take responsibility', aka take Kuroko out on a date. But when the rest of the Generation of Miracles and the Seirin basketball team find out, there's no doubt that the date will be anything but normal.

The Date Plan

Swish!

The basketball curved a graceful arc through the air and passed smoothly into the net, barely touching the rim as it made its way down.

"Not bad, Tetsu," Aomine said as he easily caught the basketball with one hand. "It looks like your Phantom Shot is now accurate around 8 out of 10 times. That's a pretty good improvement."

Kuroko gave a small smile. "I certainly could not have done it without all of your help. Thank you very much, Aomine-kun."

At the sight of the smile, Aomine had to turn away, muttering a quick, "No problem," as he did so. Inwardly, he cursed at himself for acting like a one of those shoujo manga schoolgirls. (Don't get the wrong idea—it's not that Aomine usually reads shoujo—it was Momoi who forced him to that one time.)

Recently, Aomine has felt that he has been harboring more than just platonic feelings for a certain blue-haired basketball player. Heck, who is he kidding? He's probably had this crush on Kuroko ever since their Teikou days. Perhaps this explained why Aomine was so disillusioned with basketball ever since Kuroko left the Generation of Miracles. Basketball just wasn't the same without his reliable shadow to support him.

But now that they had more or less reconciled with each other after the Winter Cup, the past feelings that Aomine thought he had lost have now come back with a vengeance. And it didn't help that he and Kuroko would get together nowadays to practice basketball, talk about school, or just to hang out. It made Aomine feel as if they were reliving their old middle school days.

Kuroko threw a curious look at Aomine, but did not question his friend's actions.

Aomine mentally gave himself a prep talk, Get a grip on yourself, Daiki!, before he turned back to Kuroko with a smirk. "Say, Tetsu. How 'bout a quick game of 1-on-1? Who knows, maybe you'll be able to score at least 5 points against me today," he added cheekily.

Kuroko raised a hand to decline. "No thank you, Aomine-kun. I think I would like to practice shooting a little bit longer."

"C'mon, Tetsu! It'll be fun!" Aomine balanced the basketball on his index finger and began to spin it.

"You mean, it will only be fun for you, Aomine-kun." Kuroko deadpanned.

Before Aomine could reply to that, both teens were alerted by the sudden barking behind them. They turned around. "Number 2?" Kuroko said, eyes widening slightly when he saw the familiar husky dog running toward them, barking happily all the way.

Aomine scratched his head. "What's your dog doing here, Tetsu?"

"I'm not sure. I left him at home, but I suppose he must have followed me here." Kuroko bent down to scratch #2 behind the ears with a small, serene smile.

Aomine coughed into his hand and quickly averted his eyes when he saw the smile again. "Anyways, your dog's gonna be in our way so your should..." #2 gave another happy bark and began to run circles around Kuroko just as Kuroko was about to take a step forward. Aomine realized too late what was going to happen.

"Oi! Tetsu, watch out!" He yelled. But Kuroko's foot had already hooked onto #2's body, causing him to trip over his pet. Losing his balance because of the sudden stumble, Kuroko's body pitched forward and he began to fall.

"Ah." Kuroko said. His expression was still impassive even as he was in the midst of falling.

"Tch!" Aomine quickly brought his hands up to Kuroko's shoulders to stop his fall, but he underestimated the combined weight of Kuroko and gravity. Aomine only had time to curse angrily to himself (Shit!) before he and Kuroko both went hurtling to the ground.

Aomine landed on his back—hard—and he muttered a few choice words in his head before he pushed himself up to a more comfortable sitting position. It was only then that Aomine realized that Kuroko was sprawled atop of him and that a pair of warm lips were pressed firmly against his own.

Aomine prided himself as being a (fairly) level-headed individual in any kind of circumstance. So he did what anyone else would have done in his situation: he promptly freaked out, nearly shoving Kuroko off of him in his haste to get up from the ground.

Did I just ki-ki-kiss Tetsu? Aomine had never been more grateful for his darker skin because he felt as if a full blush had just erupted on his cheeks.

Kuroko slowly picked himself up from the ground. He raised a hand to touch his own lips, an odd look entering his eyes. "That was my first kiss, Aomine-kun." He stated calmly—much too calmly for anyone in this situation in Aomine's opinion.

"I...uh...shit." Aomine said, eyes widening in horror. He tried to suppress the side of him that was celebrating how he was the one who took Kuroko's first kiss. "Look, Tetsu. I didn't mean to..."

"Please take responsibility."

"I...wait. What?" Did Aomine really just hear what he thought he heard or did that fall damage his hearing as well?

"Please take responsibility, Aomine-kun." Kuroko repeated calmly. "Do you happen to be free this Saturday?"

"Yeah, I...wait, what does that have to do with anything, Tetsu?" Aomine asked, confusion growing by the second.

"Very well then. I will meet you in front of the park at 9:00 this Saturday." Kuroko gave a slight bow. "Until then, Aomine-kun." He leaned down to pick up #2, then turned to leave as if nothing out of the ordinary had just occurred.

"What the hell?" Aomine muttered to himself. He ran his hands through his hair. Did Kuroko Tetsuya of all people, just ask him out on a date?

As soon as Kuroko got home from the court, his phone began to ring.

Kuroko looked at the caller ID before picking up his phone. "Hello, Momoi-san," he said.

"Tetsu-kun!" Momoi's cheerful voice immediately poured through the speaker. "I was thinking of going shopping this Saturday. I tried calling Dai-chan earlier, but he wouldn't pick up!" The pout was evident even in her voice. "So would you mind coming along with me instead?

"I apologize, Momoi-san, but I already have plans this Saturday." Kuroko said. "Perhaps another time."

"Aww...that's too bad." Momoi looked out the window of the restaurant she was currently in. "So what are you doing on Saturday, Tetsu-kun?"

"I have a date."

"Oh, I see. So you have a date, Tetsu-kun." A pause. "Wait, you have a DATE?" Momoi screeched. The restaurant occupants immediately threw her a dirty look, but Momoi was too shocked by the news to care.

"Please do not yell into the phone, Momoi-san." Kuroko said, voice still as monotone as ever. "I think I had nearly gone deaf."

"Sorry, Tetsu-kun!" Momoi lowered her voice to a more appropriate level. "But you said that you had a date this Saturday?" She repeated in a furious whisper.

"Yes, that is what I had said." Kuroko replied. "My date starts at 9:00 at the park, so I will not be able to accompany you on your shopping trip. I apologize for that."

"It's...okay, Tetsu-kun." Momoi felt faint. Her precious Tetsu-kun was going on a date? A date without her?

"Is that all that you wanted to ask of me, Momoi-san?" Kuroko asked, not aware that he had very nearly dealt Momoi a death blow with his previous words.

"Ah, yes..." She said listlessly.

"Alright then. I will talk to you later. Good-bye, Momoi-san."

"...Bye, Tetsu-kun..."

Momoi slowly hung up her phone, the expression of shock still etched upon her face. She stared blankly in front of her for a few minutes before she suddenly burst up from her seat and ran out of the restaurant with a loud cry of, "Tetsu-kun! Whyyyyyyy?" The restaurant occupants stared at the departed girl and shook their heads. Teenagers nowadays.

Momoi ran out into the streets, not noticing the surroundings as she was so distraught by the news. The pink-haired girl was so focused on her own jumbled thoughts that she ran right into a person in front of her.

"Ouch! Excuse me! Are you okay?" The stranger asked. He seemed to take a closer look at the girl. "Eh, Momoicchi?

Momoi looked up. "Kise-kun?"

"What happened, Momoicchi? Are you okay?" Kise asked, referring to Momoi's teary eyes.

"It's...Tet-Tetsu-kun." Momoi managed to bawl out.

Kise immediately flew into panic mode. "Did something happen to Kurokocchi? Is he okay?"

"He's...he's..." Kise leaned in closer to hear. Momoi gave a dry sob, before delivering the death blow. "He's going on a date!"

"Eh?" Kise was sure that he had misheard. But when his brain finally processed the news, "EHHHHHHHH?" He cried out dramatically. "What? Kurokocchi's going on a date? Without me?" He quickly pulled out his phone and frantically dialed a number.

"Ryouta?" The voice at the other end of the line said. "What reason do you have for..."

Kise yelled hysterically into the phone. "Akashicchi! We have a serious problem!"

Seirin's basketball team had just finished their daily practice. Kuroko sat on the bench and reached for his towel to wipe off his sweat. The rest of the club members had already left for the changing rooms and Kuroko was the only one still left on the courts.

As Kuroko turned to walk toward the changing rooms as well, he suddenly heard a voice behind him. "Kuroko-kun, a minute if you please."

"Was there something you needed from me, Riko-san?" Kuroko asked, turning around to address his coach.

"Yes. I've already passed this message on to everyone else earlier." Riko smiled. "We're having a team hangout of sorts at Hyuuga-kun's house this Saturday, Kuroko-kun. Everyone else is free so I'm hoping that you can make it as well." She shot Kuroko a thumbs up. "Think of it as a reward for everyone's hard work!"

"Thank you for the offer, Riko-san." Kuroko said. "But I apologize as I will have to decline. I have already made plans for this Saturday."

"You already have plans?" Riko pouted. "But what can be more important than your team, Kuroko-kun? Can't you reschedule or something?"

Kuroko gave a slight bow. "I sincerely apologize, Riko-san, but I cannot just abandon my date like that."

Riko sighed. "I see. I guess I'll just have to...wait a second." Her eyes widened as she realized what Kuroko had said just now. "Did you say date?"

"That is correct, Riko-san. I am scheduled to meet up at the park at 9:00 in the morning for my date, so I will not be available on that day." Kuroko explained calmly. "If you would please excuse me, I think I will go get some water outside right now." He gave another bow to Riko before he left.

Riko was left frozen at her spot. She shook her head and seemed to recollect herself after a few moments of stunned silence. Almost immediately, she ran toward the boys' changing room and stuck her head inside, completely ignoring the protests of the boys who were still changing.

"Hyuuga-kun!" Riko yelled for the team captain. "We have an emergency!"

Come Saturday and a majority of the Seirin basketball team was assembled at a set destination. But instead of gathering at Hyuuga's house as planned, they were staked out at the park's entrance, dressed in what they deemed to be 'inconspicuous' clothing. In their case, it meant long (suspicious-looking) trenchcoats, tourist hats, and of course, sunglasses. They were all so intent on their 'staking out' that they didn't notice that a majority of the park occupants were staring openly at them. Inconspicuous indeed.

"Everyone, we're on a serious mission here." Riko said, gesturing for the team members to press closer against the tree they were hiding behind. "Operation 'Infiltrate and Find Out Who is Kuroko-kun's Date' is a go!"

Kagami snorted. "That Kuroko's got himself a date? I don't believe this for a minute."

"It's not that unbelievable." Hyuuga said, adjusting his glasses. "Remember Momoi-san?"

"Ooh, Kuroko's a sly one, isn't he?" Izuki cut in. "But really, you wouldn't think that he would be a lady's man at first glance."

"Shh!" Riko shushed, flailing her hands dramatically. "I see Kuroko-kun!" And sure enough, the rest of the Seirin basketball team could vaguely make out the blue-haired teen standing in front of the park's entrance.

"That means we'll be able to see who Tetsu-kun's date is pretty soon, huh? (sigh) Tetsu-kun looks so good in casual clothes. I wish I was the one going on a date with him!"

"Yes, Kuroko-kun's date should arrive soon," Riko answered without thinking. "That's why we must..." Her words faded off when Riko realized that the person she was answering was distinctly female. She slowly turned her head to her right, only to see a person that she definitely didn't count on being here.

"Momoi?" Riko hissed. "What are you doing here?"

The pink-haired girl looked just as surprised to see the other female. "Riko-chan?" she said. "And the rest of Seirin's basketball team? What are you all doing here?"

"I asked you that first!" Riko shot back.

Kise suddenly popped out from the nearby bushes. "We're stalking Kurokocchi on his date, of course!"

"Ryouta, what are you doing? You just blew our cover." Akashi reprimanded, strolling out of the bushes as if he had originally planned to do so in the first place.

"Really, do you honestly not understand the meaning behind the words 'think before you act'?" Midorima added, also appearing out of the bushes.

"Kise-chin must be really bad at hide-and-seek, huh?" Murasakibara said, nonchalantly munching on a large bag of chips, even as he suddenly emerged out of the bushes as well.

"...And it looks like the rest of the Generation of Miracles is here as well." Riko commented dryly. "We certainly have quite the crowd."

"...Just how many people can that bush hide?" Izuki wondered aloud.

"I'm really starting to regret coming along to this trip." Hyuuga said, sighing.

"It's not like I wanted to come to this pointless venture," Midorima said, scowling. "But my horoscope said that I would have an unlucky day if I didn't listen to a Sagittarius today." He threw a glance at the smirking Akashi. "And while we're on that topic, today's lucky item is this penguin plushie." He held up said item.

"Well, Aka-chin said that this would be interesting." Murasakibara said simply, still munching away at his chips.

"But Aominecchi isn't here!" Kise whined. "He wouldn't pick up his phone no matter how many times I called him!"

"He wouldn't pick up my calls either!" Momoi said. "Stupid Dai-chan," she muttered under her breath. "Why did you disappear at a time like this?"

Kiyoshi laughed in his usual carefree way. "Is this the party you had planned for us, Hyuuga-kun?"

"Not at all..." Hyuuga muttered.

As usual, Kiyoshi ignored the current situation went with his own opinions. "In that case, let's have fun~"

"No! Why are you treating this like a party?" Momoi suddenly cried. "This is a serious situation! We have to protect Tetsu-kun from this...this girl he's dating!"

"Momoicchi's right!" Kise exclaimed. "We can't leave my poor Kurokocchi alone with some random girl!" He elbowed the person closest to him. "You agree with me, don't you, Kagamicchi?"

"Don't call me 'Kagamicchi'!" Kagami snapped. "Besides, why should I care who Kuroko dates?"

But Kise didn't let the topic drop. "Aww...but aren't you even the least bit curious who it could be, Kagmicchi?"

"If we don't stop this senseless chatter," Akashi started in a misleadingly innocent tone. "We will miss Tetsuya's date before we even have the chance to observe it. So I want all of you shut up." He pulled a pair of scissors out of his pocket. "Now." The scissors glinted ominously in the sunlight.

Everyone immediately did as told. There were a few moments of tense (forced) silence.

"Look, someone's coming..." Riko said hesitatingly, throwing a wary glance at Akashi's scissors.

The assembled people leaned forward for a closer look as another person approached Kuroko.

"Who is it?"

"I can't see, move over."

"Ouch! You're stepping on my foot."

"You're stepping on my foot!"

When Kuroko's date finally came close enough for everyone to identify who 'she' was, there was a moment of stunned silence.

It was Kagami who voiced everyone's thoughts aloud. "The hell? It's Aomine?"

"It's...Aominecchi?" Kise said disbelievingly.

"So that's the reason why I couldn't reach his phone!" Momoi exclaimed. "Dai-chan, you traitor!"

"Kuro-chin and Mine-chin?" Murasakibara said, throwing a handful of chips into his mouth. "I can't say that it's completely unexpected."

"Are their horoscopes even compatible?" Midorima sneered, pushing up his glasses.

"What's Kuroko-kun doing fraternizing with the enemy?" Riko cried, outraged.

"This is not what I signed up for." Hyuuga groaned.

The rest of the Generation of Miracles threw a cautious glance at their leader, who had yet to say a single word after finding out who Kuroko's so-called date was. Akashi surprised them all by chuckling, though it was an eerie chuckle that sent shivers up and down their spines. "Daiki, you've picked the wrong person to go after." Akashi said. He opened and closed his scissors with an sinister sounding snip.

Collectively, the Seirin basketball team and the rest of the Generation of Miracles suddenly felt it necessary to pray for Aomine's soul.

Akashi chuckled eerily again as he twirled his scissors. "Well then, let the date begin."

A/N:I just love the character interactions in this manga/ anime so much. Especially amongst the members of the GoM. And now with the Seirin basketball team AND the rest of the GoM planning to interfere (read: wreck chaos) on Kuroko and Aomine's date, what's going to happen next?

Please let me know of your thoughts so far! Thanks!
