One more round [Kuroko no Basuke] {M/M}

The morning for Hyuuga Junpei started badly. At first he couldn’t locate his glasses on the night table beside his bed. When he finally managed to find them, Hyuuga tripped over his blanket and fell down flat breaking his glasses in process. Hyuuga sat up and picked up the broken frame. He examined it carefully trying to find any possible way to fix it, but he knew he’d have to take it to an optician. He let out a loud sigh of annoyance while furrowing his eyebrows, making himself look fierce. “Maybe I should start keeping an extra pair just in case something like this happens,” he said out loud. “I guess there is no other way around it…”

“Captain is in a bad mood today,” Shinji whispered to Satoshi.
“Shut up cat face!” Hyuuga yelled throwing a ball at his teammates and getting Shinji right on the head.
“Ouch! Captain, why?” Shinji whined holding onto his head.
“Get back to training.” Hyuuga yelled.

“What’s with him?” Teppei sat down beside Riko, who was watching the team train thoroughly.
“His glasses,” she replied shortly.
“Glasses?” Teppei asked.
She nodded. “He broke his glasses and Hyuuga gets irritated when he has to wear contacts,” she explained.
Teppei looked at his captain. His eyebrows were furrowed and Hyuuga’s pale face looked like he was frowning the whole time. Teppei smiled sincerely scratching the back of his head.
“You seem to be getting along with Junpei better,” Riko noticed.
Teppei threw a look of amusement at her but replied honestly. “Slightly. He still hates me and does not miss a chance to tell me so.”
Riko finally turned to face Teppei. She sent him a long questioning look; as if she was trying to read his thoughts, as if she knew something he wanted to hide from everyone else. Teppei looked down not bearing to hold her gaze.
“He doesn’t mean it.” Riko finally said, pushing the strand of her short hair behind her ear. Teppei sent her a surprised look. A question kept drilling his mind, but Teppei kept quiet. Riko threw one last look at him and motioned for him to join the rest of the team.
Teppei nodded throwing his towel on the bench and running ahead.

“Why do we always end up walking together” Hyuuga groaned. Teppei smiled and looked ahead as they made their way to the optician’s.
“That is harsh knowing that we’ve crossed the ‘friendly’ boundary a long time ago.” Teppei replied, touching Hyuuga’s hand lightly with his fingertips. Hyuuga twitched and pulled away instantly. He glared at his teammate. The look in his eyes told Teppei everything that Hyuuga thought about him.
“Are you insane?!” He exclaimed. “We are in a public place. What is we were seen?”
His words cut like a razor blade, but Teppei decided not to comment. After all when he confessed his feeling to Hyuuga Junpei he knew very well that he was playing with fire. To his greatest pleasure and biggest surprise Hyuuga accepted his feelings and they’ve started dating secretly. Teppei watched his partner march ahead fuming. His broad back, slightly muscular arms and long toned legs made Teppei’s heart beat faster. More than anything he wanted to reach out and touch Hyuuga all over. He wanted to kiss his furious face and stroke his slender neck. Teppei bit his tongue trying to push the lustful thought to the back of his mind and save them for later. With a sigh he followed Hyuuga not wanting to make him even more furious.

As Hyuuga put on his glasses a sigh of relief escaped his thin lips and finally the furious wrinkles on his forehead flattened since morning. Teppei watched him from the corner of his eye thinking if it was the right time to ask if Hyuuga wanted to go to his house. He was so absorbed by his thoughts that he didn’t notice a couple of females bumping into him as he turned around.
“Sorry,” he mumbled with a heartfelt smile that always caught Hyuuga off guard. The girls blushed and giggled also apologizing to the tall guy.
The laughter and cheerful talk made Hyuuga turn around to see what the commotion was. His eyes narrowed when he saw Teppei chatting nonchalantly with two females that were clearly and openly flirting with the tall male.
A hint of annoyance tingled in his chest as he quickly paid for his glasses and made his way to the trio. Hyuuga cleared his throat and glared at Teppei.
“Is this the friend you were talking about?” asked of the girls. She was tall and slim with a nice face and beautiful long hair that fell freely on her shoulders.
“Yes, this is Hyuuga Junpei,” Teppei introduced his teammate while scratching the back of his head.
“Pleasure,” Junpei said through his gritted teeth. “If you will excuse us now,” Hyuuga said grabbing Teppei’s hand and dragging him out of the store before he could react.
When they reached a decent distance from the shop, Junpei finally released his hand and walked ahead. The captain was fuming but Teppei could not understand why. He walked behind Hyuuga with his head down not sure of what to say to make everything better.
“Do you have time now?” Junpei asked not looking back. Teppei swallowed the lump in his throat. His heart beat sped up as he replied a simple yes and walked after his partner.
