Kuroko no Basket Collection

A/N: Hi guys, I'm back after a month long break. Sorry but I come bearing gifts, the gift of a MidoTaka story.

Standard disclaimer applies [the usual I-do-not-own-KnB stuff], and I'm sorry if this sucked. Please read and take 30 seconds to review, let me know if it sucked, since I haven't written in a month.

Dedication to Aella-senpai, for sharing my views on TeniPuri (the not-fond-of-Ochibi gang) and KuroBas, and assuming MidoTaka is her OTP. Keep on writing senpai, and stay awesome.

Midorima Shintarou x Takao Kazunari

Overflowing impulses strike our hearts

And now, our story begins to come alive

With the help of a fortunate crash, the colorless world

Brilliantly, in a second, is lit up with color

Our future is going to shine

It was only 7.15 AM, the sun has not completely risen from the horizon and yet a tall, green-haired boy was already heading towards the train station, making his way to his school.

"Good morning, Shin-chan…" A cheerful voice greeted from behind him.

"Good morning, Takao." The boy replied curtly to the newcomer.

"It's a beautiful morning, isn't it?"

"Hmm."

"Say, Shin-chan. Are you free this weekend?"

"Why?"

"It's been a long time since our last date, and I was hoping that we'd spend the day together. The weather has been beautiful lately."

"I'll think about it."

"Thank you, Shin-chan. You're the best!" Takao shot him that brilliant smile of his and for that, Midorima Shintarou couldn't help but smile a little at his boyfriend's compliment.

Most people wouldn't believe that the stoic number one shooter of the Generation of Miracles, Midorima Shintarou would actually commit himself to a relationship, much less get himself a lover who's a MALE to boot. Even his former teammates from Teiko found it hard to accept the fact that he was dating someone, to the point Aomine and Kise once had a debate over the fact that whether Midorima was actually asexual or not.

Not the he could blame them though. He never showed the slightest interest in anything besides his studies, basketball and his ridiculous obsession with horoscopes. Confessions from admirers became something of a norm for him ever since he entered middle school but he politely (and firmly) rejected them all, saying that he has no interest in committing himself to anything else other than basketball and his studies. He thought it would be easy to ward all of them off, as long as he stuck to his plans and kept on rejecting every confession he received until he finished high school perhaps.

But even so, there are some confessions that he found hard to turn down. He was basically conned by Takao to go on that date with him, by targeting his male ego saying that he was too afraid to accept Takao's challenge and forcing Midorima to grudgingly accept the challenge.

One date will not change anything, I will prove him wrong, Midorima promised himself, gritting his teeth at his smirking partner.

That was the first time his predictions backfired outside the basketball court. Not only did he enjoyed his date with Takao, in fact he found himself agreeing to another date about a week later (much to his surprise).
