Just a Fairytale [Kuroko Tetsuya x Reader x Nijimura Shuzo]{KnB}

[H.33] High School: Diary Entry Thirty-Three

Each step feels as if you're walking on molasses. Your gaze remains on the sidewalk as your mind races to process what had happened back in the meeting room. A million different scenarios play out in your head, a million different ways for you to have reacted differently.

Regret pulsates in your veins. How can you tell Kuroko what happened now? If you had yelled and screamed for someone to come in or if you had socked the man when he touched you, then you could have faced Kuroko with your head held high. But you froze and did nothing.

"Are you going to tell me what happened?" Yuuka speaks up. You send her a defeated stare and shake your head. "[Name]... I'm walking you home, the least you can do is open up."

You aren't sure if you agree with her reasoning, but you're thankful enough to comply. "Would you believe me if I told you why?"

"Why wouldn't I?" she tilts her head.

"Because it has to do with Ikeda-sensei and for some reason, you never believe what I have to say about him," you spit out as you halt your travels home. The both of you stand in front of an empty park in your neighborhood. Due to how late it is into the evening, the kids that occupy the park are long gone. Only silence and darkness remain.

She hesitates with her answer before supplying it. "Tell me."

"He touched me." You respond quicker than you had intended, but the desperation to tell someone breaks the dam that keeps your secrets. "He touched my hair last time and smelled it. Now he touched my hand and touched my leg. He even went up my skirt."

The admission brings tears to your eyes. You feel dirty, violated, broken with no one to tell. Hopefully, Yuuka accepts your confession to help you find some inner peace. If she accepts it, maybe Kuroko will too?

"Were you two fooling around before this happened? Maybe it was a joke?"

Your eyes widen. "Yuuka, you know me well enough. I don't joke around with guys that I don't trust well enough."

She grits her teeth, and you can see the cogs in her brain working to come up with something more plausible for her to believe. "I... I thought I could trust you with him."

"I... Are you blaming me?" You feel like you're in the twilight zone. Your dark thoughts have always made you the sole cause of all your problems, but Kuroko's words usually brought you back into a more positive light. To hear Yuuka reaffirm those dark thoughts brought terror into your system.

"You're always seducing the men around you. You know they can't say no to you... You can have ANYONE you want," she cries out. You step backwards but she pushes forward. "You already HAVE someone, but you cheat on him to have my boyfriend!"

"H-How is having him touch me, unwillingly too, cheating?"

"It isn't unwilling. Ikeda-sensei only advances if you consent, he isn't... He isn't like that... but you, you're always allowing--" She spots the confusion on your visage and anger wells up. "Stop acting like an innocent person! You're not! You pretend to be afraid and ensnare others into your trap."

"Yuuka." You try to even your tone, hoping your reasoning can return her to her senses. "Please don't say that. You've always been there to support me through my anxiety. You know me. You don't KNOW him as much as you know me."

The sound of a slap reverberates across the empty park, and the sting of pain ensues on your cheek. You stare at her stunned as your skin reddens. "You have everything, yet you want me to separate from him to have him to yourself. You're a real... A real whore, [Name]."

The word brings back a flurry of memories and tears slide down your cheeks. How can a friend that has known you for almost three years say these detrimental words? She understood your condition, she understood you the most, but somehow love has blinded her to the point of not having any cognizance. 

"I thought I was too ugly to have a boyfriend, and Ikeda showed me that inner beauty was what mattered. Now I see that you don't have that inner beauty that he speaks of. That you're just a shallow person who thinks they're better than others because of how pretty you look." Her words harbor a lethal dose of venom that punctures your heart.

When Yuuka sees the damage she's done to you, her eyes waver until she turns on her heel and flees. You collapse to the ground at the sight of her retreating form. Tears and snot mar your face and clothes, and it isn't until you're tear ducts dry up do you return home.

A/N: I feel like we're playing a game of 'how much lower can Yuuka sink?' and maybe we hit rock bottom of it? Mature teenagers? Never heard of them. Yuuka is so involved with her first love to really care about her friends' feelings. Ahhh I feel so bad for making the reader-insert go through a lot, and this isn't even the peak of things. No worries though, Kuroko is very observant and will get to the bottom of things!
