Kuroko Tetsuya x Reader [1]

                                                                          *Birthday Special*

"[Last Name]-chan?" [Name] looked up to see Kuroko standing next to her.

Jumping in surprise, she exclaimed, "Gah! Kuroko-kun! How many times have I told you not to do that! And call me [Name]!"

"Ah, gomen [Last Na]- [Name]-chan. I was here the whole time." Kuroko answered back. He had corrected himself when [Name] gave him a pointed look. When he said he had been there the whole time, he looked away a little.

An irk mark appeared on [Name]'s forehead, "Don't lie! I know you weren't!"

Kuroko blushed slightly at the fact that he'd been caught in a lie, "Ne, [Name]-chan, happy birthday."

A small smile rose to [Name]'s face, "Thank you, Kuroko-kun..."

"[Name]-chan... Call me by my first name as well." Kuroko smiled back slightly, he knew she was having a bad day and that her smile didn't reach her eyes.

How could it though? Today, her birthday, was a horrible day. It has been for years.

For [Name], her birthday was a yearly reminder.

A reminder that her parents divorced on her 12th birthday. Her mother remarried on her 14th birthday. The same day, her father announced he was engaged.

On her 15th birthday, both her parents felt it was time to leave Japan. Her mother stated she'd be going to America with her new husband and step-children; it was where he had grown up and where most of his family were. That same night, her father stated he was taking his fiancee to Germany; where she had been wanting to her life with him.

So, [Name] had to choose who to go with. She couldn't bear the thought of leaving Japan, the home she grew up in. It was impossible. So she didn't go. She stayed in the home that she had been brought up in.

Thankfully, due to her parents having good financial skills, they had managed to pay off their home in no time, leaving only the basic bills; which they sent money for. They sent money for other things as well, such as food and clothes. Usually though, [Name] would get quite a large sum and a big happy birthday from both her parents and their family; the same for major holidays as well.

This year though, nothing. Nothing from anyone but a few friends from school.

"[Name]-chan?" Kuroko called, breaking her daze.

"Hm? Oh, sorry Tetsuya-kun. What did you say?" [Name] asked, a small blush forming on her cheeks as she looked away in embarrassment.

Kuroko sighed, "I asked if you wanted me to walk you home."

[Name] smiled at Kuroko, "That'd be nice.."

That night, [Name] wasn't alone on her birthday for the first time in two years.

Kuroko stayed with [Name], holding her tightly all night.

Since then, the two were always by each other; giving each other wonderful birthdays, holidays, and just normal days..<3
