" So he lost again huh" you sighed
" Yeah"
" But despite that he still challenged him for another game tomorrow "
Kuroko looked sideways at the H/c girl who leaned leaned against the wall with her arms crossed over her chest. A worried yet annoyed plastered on her face.
" Why is he so persistent on beating Haizaki?" You questioned
" He thinks that because he's the fifth member of the generation of miracles, he should be able to take him down. And if he does, he will have proven his strength" the blue haired explained calmly
" He still thinks that..." you gazed at the blond, who just dunked the ball into the basketball net.
But when he landed on his feet your eyes widen for a fraction when you noticed him frown.
Kneeling down the boy clutched his foot " Dammit"
" Kise! " you skipped over to him with Kuroko following behind " You okey?"
Taking a deep breath he looked at your worried expression " Don't worry its nothing"
" I know you wanna keep practicing for your confrontation tomorrow but resting is as equally important" you put your hands on your hips " So go change and head home" you instructed and pointed at the gym door
" Y/n chi I swear I'm fine-" he tried to convince you but when you send him a sharp look, he gulped and obeyed without a second thought
" Well well well, I see who's the man in this relationship" a rough voice mocked
Looking over your shoulder, you noticed Haizaki entering the gym trough the back door with a smug smirk on his face.
Deciding to ignore him, you asked Kuroko to help you clean up the gym " Say L/n, have you heard, about how this afternoon I kicked your boyfriends ass. Man you should've seen the look on his face."
Still pretending not to hear him you continued collecting the basketballs " He was literally on his knees and wouldn't budge a muscle. Talk about pathetic. "
Kuroko noticed how you gritting your teeth and digging your nails into your palm. Nudging you in the side you looked at him and he send you a small smile, telling you to stay calm.
With still no reaction from you, Haizaki rolled his eyes, bored that you didn't react to his provocations.
However before he left, the grey haired walked up to you and placed his hand your shoulder " What do you say we make a bet? If I win tomorrow then you'll go on a date with me"
Huffing you slapped his hand away " Yeah don't count on it" you begin to walk away but the Teiko player grabbed your wrist " Why not? Scared he's gonna lose?"
" Haizaki let go of-" Kuroko started but you held up your hand, signaling him to let you handle this
" Not at all. But one I don't like you and two...I believe in Kise" you grinned with confidence
" Will see about that"
***
The gym fell quiet as everyone watched Kise on his knees and Haizaki making snarky comments about his defeat
" Where is all that confidence now Kise?" he laughed out loud " I thought you said you would kick my ass "
Clenching your fist you hopped towards the blond and crouched down in front of him. Grabbing his hand the boy perked his head slightly up " Don't worry about it, you'll eventually beat him" you reassured him with a smile
