I got the idea from the Bastille songs 'Icarus', and 'Things We Lost in the Fire', (hence the title).
Note: this is set a few years in the future, where the gang is all young adults (20-something - 30, I haven't decided yet since I don't see it as that important in this particular story, if you wanna suggest something comment, pm, or email me link to my email is on my profile)
Kuroko and Aomine are in an established relationship, but Aomine frequently gets drunk and cheats (sometimes even when he's sober) on poor Tetsuya. Akashi notices this when he brings home a drunken-Aomine, and shows Tetsuya pictures found on the red-head's security cameras. This may turn out to be the last straw for Tetsuya, as he was found earlier to be writing a letter with unknown contents. Will this be it for AoKuro? Will feelings spark between Akashi and Tetsuya, that leads to AkaKuro? Find out this, and much more in: Icarus, Theses Are the Things (We Lost in the Fire)
