Hi~ This one is a little bit longer than the others,so yeahh.
I actually realized while writing this that I can really identify to Kuroko. Feeling like he's the worst,even though he's trying his best.
I have lately felt really bad...Well,I didn't get to any schook where I applied. So yeah...I'm pretty down about that.

But yeah,hope you'll enjoy.

One of the streetlamps blinked at the late night. It was silent,only some quiet sobbing was heard. Only a boy,crying alone at the streetcourt.

So this is really the end,huh...?

"I'm sorry Aomine-Kun..."

~~~~~

The bouncing sound was heard at the gym as the tall boy ran trough the court and shot the ball to the basket. As the ball fell to the ground,Aomine turned to look at the clock.

"He's really late...He's usually never late at the practices" He mumbled.

Right that time,the light blue haired boy entered quietly to the gym. Aomine had gotten used to the lack of his precence,so he didn't startle at all as he noticed the boy. More like,he was really worried and curious why he was so late.

"Yo,Tetsu!" Aomine bid as he jogged closer to the boy. "You finally came,I've been waiting for you like an hour,where have you been?"

He saw the boy still wearing a school uniform as he jogged closer the latter. As he saw the boy closer,he noticed Kuroko's weird expression.

"Wait,why do you have your uniform on? Are you feeling sick?" Aomine asked many questions with a worry.

Kuroko kept his gaze at the floor. He gulped,trying to not cry. He couldn't say a word as his throat was dry.

I felt really bad. After all that we had done. I had to dissapoint him. "Let's share the same court someday,Tetsu!" That sentence... I had to tell him the truth. That I suck and I can't improve at all.

"Tetsu...?" The boy started to get really worried. Kuroko got confidence to open his mouth. "A-Aomine-kun...I..have to quit basketball" "Huh?! What are you talking about,Tetsu? But you love basketball!"

"No...It's not that. I do love basketball,but...it seems like I can't be of any use for the team...I'm s-sorry" The boy closed his eyes tightly.

After saying that,my heart hurt so much. I just wanted to cry. I was afraid of what the boy was going to reply.

But for my suprise...

"Nobody's completely useless for the team. Even if you couldn't play in the games... Someone who stays later than anyone else to practice can't possibly be completely useless!"

Kuroko opened his eyes and raised his gaze to Aomine with a confusion.

"I won't say you'll definetely make it if you don't give up. But if you do give up,there's nothing left"

Kuroko stared at the boy. He couldn't say a word.

Aomine looked like he was going to come closer or open his mouth and say something,but suddenly someone called his name.

Aomine turned to look "Akashi?" Behind the red haired and short one,were purple and green haired ones.

"I thought I hadn't seen you for a while,you were here?" "Yeah,since the other gym's pretty crowed,the two of us always practice here"

"The two of you?" Akashi turned to look at Kuroko,who he hadn't noticed first. "Haah?~ Was there someone like this on our team?" Murasakibara asked.
