DO NOT FORGET, kozume kenma

t w e n t y - t h r e e

It was after four in the afternoon, Kenma still hadn't woken up, but you wouldn't wake him up, after all, he didn't sleep for days and when he slept, it was for a very short time, so he deserved all the rest he wanted. You had taken a few hours' nap in the morning, and spent the rest of the day wandering around, most of the time, behind Kuroo. 

He was hurt but he wouldn't stop in place and he also wouldn't stop drinking, you even accompanied him on a few drinks, deny a drink wasn't like you, but at least you didn't get drunk. Kuroo also went to the shed at one point and you went with him, but this time, there were only you there, he just went to get his cell phone, saying he left it there. In a nutshell, so you don't get bored, you've been hanging around all day after Tetsuro. But now he was gone, maybe tired of you, but it didn't matter. You were in the living room, flipping through the channels on the huge TV in the room, sucking on a chocolate popsicle you'd found in the freezer.

—You're Y/N, aren't you? - a red haired boy appeared in the room, sitting next to him, but with a respectable distance. - Kenma's girl. 

—Yeah, its me.- you said smiling.- And you are..?

—Satori Tendou, at your disposal. - Said amused. - I need to talk to him, do you know where he is? 

—Sleeping. If you want I can call him.

—No, no.- He denied waving his hands. - I don't want to lose my head for having made someone wake him up.- You raised your eyebrows, laughing. 

—Does he scare you that much?

—No. We aren't afraid of him, but we do respect him. - He said sighing. - Kod has done a lot for all of us.

—Kod? Why do they call him that?

—Kodzuken. Its the name he is known in the streets and in the city. Only those close to him know his real name and those involved with the business, perhaps not even the police know who he really is.- Tendou dropped his head. - I'm surprised you don't know that. 

—He doesn't like to talk about these things with me. - you crooked your mouth. - I'd be surprised if he'd told me.- the redhead let out a small laugh.

—Well, he should. Communication is important in a relationship.- you stared at him, letting out an almost wistful laugh shortly afterwards. 

—I don't know if we have a real relationship. I have no idea what we have. 

—Oh... so it's complicated. Kuroo always said that Kod is difficult with these relationship things, both love, friendships, family and etc. He was always totally focused on work, never cared who stayed or remained in his life. The only exceptions are Bokuto, Kuroo and Hinata. Probably you now. 

—May I ask? - you said curiously, Tendou looked at you, squinting his eyes and letting out a laugh. 

—I will say only to the point where my life will not be in danger.

—Combined. - You laughed. - What exactly is his role? From what I've seen, he does everything. And I want to know how it works... on the streets.

—Well, they said you're curious beyond measure. - You arched your eyebrows, drawing a laugh from Satori. - In this business, it's like being divided by importance. First is Kenma, Kuroo and Bokuto. The three rule every other group and the entire city. In seconds we have us, me... Ushijima, Hinata, Tobio, Tsukki, Yamaguchi, among a few others, I don't know if you've met them all.

—I dont think so, I only remember a few.

—Finally, thirdly, we have the subordinates of those above, whoever is in that position is the one who does the most boring jobs, like receiving the money, distributing the drugs and other things. We don't call it "first, second and third", but it's the easiest way I found to explain it to you.- He chuckled under his breath. - You want to know how the streets work, right?
