STEPBROTHER (HAIKYUU X KUROKO NO BASKETBALL SUMMER CAMP)
8

Akashi dribbled the ball he was holding while running fast, he seemed to enjoy every sound of the basketball reflection hitting the floor. Many times he dribbled the ball and carried it around as if he was passing through some enemies with ease. And did not wait long, he immediately shot the Ball and put it right into the Basketball Ring. Along with the sound of the ball bouncing a few moments after falling from the ring that made the entire flow of Akashi's blood stir without realizing that now all his clothes had been wet by sweat droplets.

It seems that Akashi enjoys playing basketball individually, even if he was in the Basketball court almost half an hour ago. And for him, solitude is something that is fun enough to increase his concentration of training.

Until the sound of footsteps from outside began to sound clearly bouncing in the quiet room, so quiet that Akashi himself could realize the presence of others there that makes him no longer alone at this time.

"Let's dinner soon, Akashi." 

"Ah, yes. Thank you for reminding me, Shintaro." Akashi immediately finished his training and returned the Ball he had held back into the Basket.

Then he walked calmly to Midorima who had been waiting for him in front of the Building Door, it was clear that Midorima was still busy listening to the radio from Oha Asa about the star prophecy today.

"So, how's your star forecast today Shintaro?" akashi asked as he grabbed a bottle of water from Midorima's grasp that Midorima had been deliberately providing since.

Akashi gulped it down quickly, until the water in the bottle had run out without remaining.

"Thank you for bringing me a drink, Shintaro." Akashi smiles while returning the bottle to Midorima, or rather he wants Midorima himself to throw the bottle away.

"Cancer is ranked first, I think tomorrow is my victory to train against Murasakibara."

"You look so confident, Shintaro. Then, have you prepared the Lucky Item for tomorrow?" tanya Akashi who walked first left the Basketball court, followed by Midorima who balanced his steps with Akashi.

"Tomorrow is a Doraemon Doll, fortunately I already had it a week ago when Takao invited me to buy a souvernir for his nephew." Midorima seemed to blatantly explain everything he experienced to Akashi, he was indeed one of the members of Kiseki no seedai who also felt very comfortable when near Akashi. Moreover, Akashi is known as a leader who is very respectful of its members and never once hid his caring feelings to them.

Midorima had days of fever from exhaustion and caused Midorima's schoolwork to pile up. But thanks to the presence of Akashi who defended the stay at Midorima House, finally all Midorima's duties were completed also because of the help of Akashi who was willing to do all Midorima's schoolwork. Though come to think of it, they were both in different schools, Midorima also had quite a bit of intelligence so for him it was not a problem for him to do when he recovered later. But it seems that the captain still insisted on taking over Midorima's schoolwork on the grounds that he did not want Midorima to get sick again just because of the piling up schoolwork.

"Oh yes, Akashi. You still remind me of my promise that wasn't fulfilled at the time?" ask Midorima.

Akashi smiled, lately he was more often smiling after his defeat of the Winter Cup at that time.

"I remember very well, Shintaro."

"Even if it's just a match practice, but I'll stick to it. Although Kuroko actually managed to defeat you, but still it was a different thing. You understand what I mean, Akashi?" asked Midorima who still could not move on from his defeat at that time and how embarrassed he was to remember his promise at Junior High that time who loudly voiced himself that he would defeat Akashi one day later.

"To be honest I don't want to lose any more, but I will wait for your promise. Although I think this time you'll have a hard time making it happen, Shintaro." Akashi stops his steps, he reaches into his pants pocket and pulls out a necklace decorated by one of the shogi Pions to Midorima.

"If so, you can put on my necklace and return it back to me if you succeed in defeating my team" Akashi said.

"You sure? Not that this is the necklace of your late Mother," asked Midorima hesitantly.

"You're the person I trusted the most all along, so it wouldn't hurt to leave this necklace to you?" akashi's backlash was answered by Midorima.

"It's good that you understand" Akashi said, patting Midorima on the shoulder, which was actually much higher than him, but he was willing to force himself to balance Midorima's height.

"Sei-chan! Just now we want to pick you up, let's eat now!" mibuchi shouted from the doorway of the Dining Room. Incidentally the distance between Akashi and Midorima with the Dining Room was not too far away, they only needed to turn left and walk a few meters to be able to arrive into the Dining Room.

"I'm sorry to have you waiting for me, Senpai." Akashi immediately walked up to Mibuchi, not to forget also followed by Midorima who immediately wore a Necklace owned by Akashi which is now his responsibility.

Meanwhile, Mibuchi immediately embraced Akashi's shoulder as soon as Junior's snag arrived, "They've been waiting for you, Captain. Let's eat, because Nebuya is already very hungry."

"You're right, Mibuchi Senpai. It's not good to let Nebuya Senpai have to endure hunger because of me," said Akashi who clearly made Mibuchi to grumble at Akashi's adorable behavior. He never once had a classmate who was very considerate and respected him like this, so it is undeniable that Akashi is the favorite sister of the three Kings without the crown.

"Akashi finally came too" Nebuya said, sounding relieved.

"Akash! Finally you came too, I couldn't hear Nebuya's starving stomach sound like a gorilla." Hayama could not hide the look on his face towards Nebuya.

Akashi could only smile, "I'm really sorry, so let's eat until we're full and get enough rest today."

"Good meal" said Nebuya who directly ate the food.

"Good, Akashi. Have a good meal, "lead Hayama too, before finally eating his meal.

"Let's eat, Sei-chan." Mibuchi immediately threw himself down in the seat next to Nebuya, and then he went to eat his food with pleasure. But not with, Akashi, it seems he has realized that Mayuzumi has not yet arrived there at this time.

With a slightly agitated feeling, he immediately sat down next to Hayama while sipping his drink.

"Oh yes, Akashi. So, where's the last person who's gonna complete our team?" asked Hayama after chewing the rice in his mouth.

"It seems like he hasn't come yet" Akashi replied.

"But you're a hundred percent sure he's coming?" asked Hayama again which made Akashi silent for a moment, Mibuchi stopped for a moment of dinner. He felt that Akashi was not usually hesitant like this, it was indeed the person who managed to make Akashi become this self-confident.

"Just calm down, Sei-chan. That guy must have come, maybe he's in a traffic jam or there's some unresolved business out there." Mibuchi tries to calm Akashi's doubts, however, their captain is only Junior who needs the support of seniors like them.

Akashi nodded, then began to pick up his spoon and fork. "Then, let's just continue eating first."

Akashi immediately ate his dinner quietly, he was hungry but his habit at home made him still able to be dignified and cool when eating though. He was indeed a young master who looked like fantasy stories in the comics, although he sometimes showed confusion and doubt like a young teenager in general.

"Excuse me, can I sit here?" ask Satori Tendo who out of nowhere suddenly strayed into the circle of friendship Akashi.

Akashi glanced at Tendo, he did not recognize the figure of a tall man with a sharp grin. Except for when his memory of Akashi is fixed on the Volleyball Team who are also there to attend the Summer Training Camp.

"You're the Volleyball team, right?" asked Akashi who immediately put Spoon and Garpunya next to the Plate neatly, he seemed to have ended his dinner or rather the appetite of the captain Rakuzan was lost a moment ago.

Akashi calmly sipped his drink, then rubbed his mouth using the tissue available on the dining table.

"That's right, Seijuro-chan." Satori seemed excited to answer Akashi's question, even he just casually made an adorable nickname for the person he just talked to.
