~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kuroko wonders if his decision to date Akashi was a mistake.

It was the redhead who first confessed to the bluenette.

It happened the night Seirin won the Winter Cup. As Kuroko and his team were returning to the dugout, Kuroko heard someone call his name from behind.

"Kuroko!"

The familiar voice immediately caught Kuroko's attention. He turned and responded. "Akashi-kun?" He was a bit surprised to see his former captain running after them. His team also stopped and looked at the redhead. "Do you need something?" He asked.

Huffing, Akashi spoke. "Can I bother you for a bit?" He requested with a smile which, Kuroko thought, was a smile of relief.

"Of course. I don't mind," Kuroko answered. He looked towards his coach and Riko just nodded, giving Kuroko her permission. The rest of Seirin proceeded to the locker room after that, leaving the two former teammates on the hallway.

It wasn't really unconventional like one would have anticipated. Akashi straight-out told Kuroko his feelings.

Expectedly, Kuroko was caught off-guard by the sudden confession. He felt... happy. To be honest, his former captain had caught his interest since the very first moment he saw him, which means since they were still middle school students at Teikou.

Akashi is just that. He's too attractive for his own good. Never did Kuroko thought that he would one day find himself and the redhead in the middle of an abandoned hallway, with the latter confessing to him.

Kuroko's mind was in complete disarray. He felt... a tinge of happiness inside of him, but his brain was countering his positive thoughts with negative "what if's."

Akashi was too good for him. He's like the skies, and Kuroko is the earth. The two aren't supposed to meet. They are left with the sad fate of just watching each other.

An amused laugh broke Kuroko's muddled thoughts. "You look weird right now, Kuroko," Akashi chortled.

"...This isn't a laughing matter, Akashi-kun. I don't know how to respond to your confession," Kuroko replied with a glare. His pout, which came with it, toned it down, though.

"Do you not like me?" Akashi asked with a smile, as if he already knew the bluenette's answer to his question.

"I... don't hate you," Kuroko murmured.

"Are you worried?" Akashi gently took Kuroko's hand, and held it close to his chest.

"Of course, I am," Kuroko lowered his head, not even fighting the redhead's careful advances.
