Text me.

Day 16 and 17

"Thank you for dropping me off Tetsuya. You really didn't have to." I thanked him while we walked towards my door. "No it's fine. I don't want you getting hurt and it's late." He stated back. I smiled. Tetsuya has always been like this, he's always been nice, caring, fun and an all round good person. "I'll see you around, okay? Text me later." I smiled and hugged him tightly once we has reached my door. He wrapped his arms around my short lean figure and we let go after a while."I will. Good night." He watched me open my door and I waved before closing it.

I remember when Tetsuya was young. We were in the same class and never talked much before we had been partnered together in a project. I had never really noticed him like the others, and hadn't even cared to remember his name. During the days of the project I had a a lot of fun getting to know him. sure he seemed quiet but he was a very reliable person that I felt like I could really connect to. He saved me a lot of time and tears by myself. I owe him a lot.

I smiled thoughtfully at the memories and checked the time. Seeing as it was late I got to studying and eventually went to sleep forgetting all about Akashi.

The next morning I woke up on my study desk and realised I had slept on my chair. I checked my phone to see I had missed all my alarms.

"Crap!" I cursed and quickly hurried to dress. I tripped while trying to find my shoes and ended up crawling towards them in a hurry to save time, which only made it worse. Picking up my things and leaving without breakfast completely missing the note on the kitchen counter, I left the house forgetting my keys.

I rushed to school almost going to my bike which I then remembered was broken from an accident with kou. I shook my head and sprinted to school disregarding the stares I got from others.

I got to the school gates to be met with Akashi. "You're late." He stated. I noticed the phone in his hand but quickly averted my gaze back to his piercing eyes. "Yeah! Sorry.. Um.. I slept through my alarm" I combed my hair with my hands that was still a mess because I hadn't thought of combing it. "Follow me." Was the only thing he said. I walked a step behind him and watched his back. I could faintly see his figure through his shirt that fit well. I felt the wind brush through my hair and watched as his curl to the side with mine. I wondered if he did this often, I wondered how many he had to walk and get their names for a late pass.

Eventually we got to our destination and he asked the question I had dreaded. "Name and homeroom?" I shifted around uncomfortably. "Uhm. Yamakage usagi, 2-A" he looked down and wrote it on a slip and handed it to me. He looked normal, no reaction. I knew this would happen but was still surprised when it did.

"You can leave now." He stated, uncaring. It hurt me somehow that he didn't care on whether it was me or not, But I guess this was to be expected. This is Akashi seijuro, not kuroko Tetsuya. Had he already known? I wondered.

I left without another word and sighed when I did.
