We're all mad here (Kuroko no Basket fanfic, Mental hospital AU)

Chapter 2

Followed by Kagami, Hyuga walked straight to the first room in the hallway, to the white door on te left. The door looked really strong. Breaking it wouldn't be easy. It had just a little window on it, and the glass of it was probably bullet proof. 

That is necessary in a place like this. You never know what could be happening. 

"Good morning, Midorima-kun" Hyuga greeted with no warmth in the tone of his voice. The long male with green hair was sitting on his little bed, holding a little teddy in his arms, squeezing it tightly against his chest. He slowly raised his gaze to the duo who had just walked in. With taped fingers of his left hand he tried to place his glasses better on his nose. 

The male - who seemed to be called Midorima - was so long that for a few seconds Kagami was sure that the bed was too short for him. 

"Who's the guy with you?" he asked with his low voice. The way he said it, the cold tone would have been able to freeze someone to death. Kagami's lips froze together, and he therefor was not able to say a thing. 

"He's new in here. I'm just showing places to Kagami-kun. I really hope you can get along well" he started speaking while walking in the middle of Midorimas room, starting to collect the books laying all around the floor. 

Taiga couldn't help but stare at the green haired male as their eyes met.  Green eyes stared right back at him from behind his clear glasses, examining every inch of his body perfectly. 

"You," he started, asking for the new nurse's attention.  "What's your sign?" 

Kagami raised his eyebrows slightly confused, but he actually didn't doubt his question for even a second. While you worked with patients like him, you came across some strange questions once in a while, you couldn't avoid that.

"Me? I'm Leo" he answered in no time.  Midorima's gaze seemed to get even more intense as he still examined the redhead's appearance. It was like his mind was filled with thousands of thoughts he tried to get a grip of. 

"Interesting," his still so freezing voice said. "Leo and Cancer are neighbors in the zodiac and typically get along well as friends and colleagues," he suddenly started speaking of zodiac signs like he read it straight from some book. He had no pauses, he didn't stop for even a tenth of a second to collect words he should say. "So I do think I'm fine with you coming here," he added, finally turning his gaze away. 

With Kagami not being able to stay anything, Hyuga finally straightened his back. "Remember that the breakfast is in 35 minutes. You should brush your teeth and change your clothes before coming to the cafeteria," he said before walking past the other, back to the hallway. Redhead glanced at the guy still sitting on his bed over his shoulder before turning his back completely to him. 

"Try to avoid Aomine as much as you can! He's Virgo, as your compatibility with him is low!" his deep voice reached Taigas ears as they walked away, but he did nothing to react on his words.

...So that guy is into zodiacs, huh?

Hyuga kept silent.

So did the new nurse, as they walked towards the next room, the next white door on the right. 

The person in this room was still sleeping. Lights were turned off before the doctor in white coat turned them on, waking up the guy under the blankets. All Taiga was able to see was a purple hair coming from under the sheets. He squirmed, clearly not being very amused because of being waken up this early - the clock  on the wall told that it was just 6:25 AM.

"Wake up, Murasakibara," Hyuga raised his voice to force the one back to the reality from his dreams. "The breakfast is in 35 minutes. You can't get anything if you haven't gotten yourself ready before that."
