Just a Fairytale [Kuroko Tetsuya x Reader x Nijimura Shuzo]{KnB}

[H.7] High School: Diary Entry Seven

A/N: Sorry for the delay. I had an editor's block... Not a writer's block, an editor's block. Like there were sentences I didn't like but also didn't know how to change them. Took a few months to get back into the groove of things. I mean, I also did write more of the high school arc. I'm pushing 30k words e_e; 

I promise more Kuroko soon so yeah, please enjoy!

[____]

Your face hurts from smiling too much. It's a problem you had never encountered before, but after seeing Kuroko, you feel as if this smile is permanently etched on your face. Just the thought of the boy causes heat to rush to your cheeks and an urge to let out your emotions overwhelms you.

You scream into your pillow as you hug it tightly. 'I'll be able to talk to Kuroko again tomorrow!'

The thought of facing him again has you resuming your fits of giggles and screams onto the pillow. You kick around your bed until you almost fall off, forcing you to find a more rooted position.

Your eyes wander around your room as you fantasize what he'll say. He'll probably ask to be friends again and for you two to start over. That's best case scenario, and judging by how he spoke to you today, you pray that it'll be the only scenario.

"OH!" you roll out of your bed and head straight towards the closet. With a loud hum, you scourge through it for the ideal outfit. "Hmm dress or skirt?... Or jeans..."

In a matter of minutes, your entire room becomes filled with outfit combinations. It's an unnerving amount of decisions, and you begin to try them all on, a wide smile accompanying each outfit.

As you're in the midst of dealing with your first world problem, you hear your phone vibrate and ring. Although it's late into the night, you don't question it and answer the phone with vigor. "Hiiii!"

"Woah, you sound way too happy for a person whose team lost and came in third."

You recognize the voice instantly and almost drop the phone. "S-Shuzo! I wasn't expecting your call!"

He chuckles at your renewed energy, and there's an airy feel to the way he speaks. "I had some time and decided to call and see how you were. I guess I don't have to console you about your team losing."

"Ah, it is a bit disappointing but I know we'll only get better." You forget about your search for the perfect outfit and flop on your bed with a grin. "Most of us are in our second year so we won't be losing most of the group."

"Good, good. You'll be head manager next year?"

"Nope, Yuuka is also a second-year. She'll maintain her position," you hum. "It's better this way."

"Maybe, but you're seriously responsible. You should have a higher position!"

"I think I'm good for now haha."

"So... What has you so giddy? I can hear that smile on your face."

"Oh, I took your advice and saw Kuroko today!"

"I'm guessing it went well," he chuckles.

You smile as you recall your memory of earlier today for the hundredth time. "He said he wants to talk to me after he wins against Akashi."

He pauses for a brief moment, and you can practically hear the doubt emanating from him. "You think he'll win?"

"I do." You don't waste a moment in answering him. "He will win."

"I see... Kuroko huh... I never thought he would get this far," Nijimura thinks to himself, but he appears to be in awe of the boy. "He's breaking expectations."

"Yeah, isn't he great?" you gush with a giant smile.

"He is... I never thought I'd hear you this happy, [Name]."

"W-WAH! Stop being so corny, Shuzo!" you gasp with fake concern.

"STOP SCREAMING AND GO TO BED!" your mom yells from down the hallway.

Nijimura laughs heartily, "Your mom has gotten better at screaming at you. I haven't heard that yell in a while!"

"Hehe yeah. Anyways, I'll call you back and tell you how it goes."

"Okay, good night, [Name]."

"Night, Shuzo." You hang up and drop your phone onto your bed. A sigh passes your lips as you think about tomorrow. "That's right, I should go with a dress for tomorrow."

You return to choosing your outfit until you decide on a casual mini-dress with an oversized cardigan, black tights, and ankle boots. A matching scarf and a ribbon for your hair will accessorize the outfit. With a small nod to the outfit, you head to bed in hopes of a fruitful day tomorrow.
