Chapter One
Yes... It has finally come; my Kuroko No Basuke Fanfiction! Who-hoo!
Enjoy~!
Although Noa Hinata was only nine years old, she could be very wary for a child her age. After her older brothers had once dropped her in a pool without her knowing about it at first, after her mother had promised not to make those snotty nosed brats be her playmates anymore but the following day found the same snot nosed brats playing with her stuff, and her older sister taking her favorite popsicle just by saying that it was expired though it reality it wasn't, and almost everything she has been tricked into; Noa has become a rather wary person.
So when Ryōta Kise had come up claiming he wanted to be her friend after being kicked in the balls just the other day by herself, you really shouldn't blame her for being wary. No one in Musashi Elementary School wanted to be friends with 'Kowai Noa', they usually ignored her and went on with whatever they were doing. Not like she cared, she rather liked the others cowering away from her. Made her feel awesome.
"Really?" She asks once more, giving the boy a once over. Ryōta Kise, one of the smartest smartest in her class, stood with a determined look on his face. At her question, he nods his head vigorously, a slight shy smile coming to his face. "Why?"
"Because..." Well, he hadn't thought this far ahead. He furrows his blonde eyebrows, before exploding in a rush manner. "Because I want you to become my friend."
"Even though I kicked you in the balls?" Her mother would have surely by now pulled her tongue out and began to scrub it with soap if she had heard her. She could see that he was a little disturbed by her choice of words, clearly having been thought that such words are bad words. Nevertheless...
"Y-yeah..." He didn't really want to remember that experience. It was quite painful and he wished that he would never experience something like that ever again. But every time someone brought it up, he swore he could feel the pain once again. "Even if you did that..."
"Okay." Noa knew he was surprised by her answer, or how she quickly agreed to it. She knew it was those stupid students saying that she didn't want friends and would most likely beat someone up if they asked her. "I'll be your friend."
"R-really? Just like that?" Ryōta at first thought he would have had to do more than that to become friends with her. But he was right, Noa Hinata really was different.
"Yeah, I like you. You're the first boy to ever not hold my kicking you in the balls against me. I really thought you would hate me after I did that..." Noa trails off, looking over to where she saw the rest of their class were playing on the playground behind the school. She knew some were looking over to where she sat on the swings with the blonde standing in front of her.
"Uh... Can you stop talking about that?" Ryōta really didn't want her to keep bringing that up. He lets his mouth move into a pout, fake tears coming to his eyes. He stops this facade when he sees the girl had began to giggle before it became a full blown laugh. "Stop laughing at me!"
"No way am I ever gonna let that go, Kise-kun!" It didn't sound like a 'scary' person's laugh. It sounded quite normal to Ryōta's ears to be honest. But he didn't really focus on that right now, a girl who had kicked him in the balls just because he told her she had weird way of walking, was now his friend.
"N-Noacchi, stop it!"
"Ha, never!"
And that's really how their friendship had started.
Teikō Junior High School is an elite school that Noa will be forever grateful she was allowed to attend. It wasn't just because they were known for their curriculum which was rather impressive, if Noa had anything to say about it. It wasn't because she enjoyed her time in her all too awesome club whenever school was dismissed every afternoon, or because her best friend who was an upcoming model attended the same school with her. It was because of...
"I swear every girl that goes to this school is cute." Noa sighs while watching a group of giggling girls past by her, their black pleated skirts swaying with each step they took. "Don't you think so, Kise?"
"I guess..."
Yes, it was because of the cute girls; she didn't really care if she was one herself. She just thought that they were cute and due to Noa's rather petite form and long black hair and large brown eyes, a handful thought so too.
Looking to the blonde, she finds him staring rather bored ahead as they continued to walk. Noa was actually used to this state that Ryōta put on. She had dubbed it 'I can do everything I see and I wish for something new' look. Really, she knew the blonde all too well.
"Awh, what am I gonna do, Noacchi?!" Noa jumped when she was grabbed by the shoulders and was then shaken with vigor by the now whining boy. Her pale hands grasps his as she looked up at him to see tears forming at the edges of his eyes. Pushing his hands off, she fixes her uniform before continuing walking. "Noacchi!"
"Alright, alright..." Noa sighs while looking around. At the current moment, the two second years were walking to their class, and so this give Noa the chance to look around. Knowing her friend, he would most likely want to join a sports club. But, she also knew that he tried almost every club she could think about and usually got bored with them. Looking at the various fields, she began to drop the ones that she knew that he had already tried. "Hmm... Baseball?"
Ryōta shakes his head, clearly having tried that before.
"Right, you already tried that..." Her brown eyes moved onto the next one, but quickly crossed it off already knowing that he had tried that sport before. "You know, this is really hard."
"It's only hard 'cause you're lazy, Noacchi." Ryōta gives the girl a pleading look to continue. "I'll help you with your English..."
"What about-" She really needed that help. English was her worst subject and it just so happens to be Ryōta's best one. But her chance at getting to get the extra help slips from her the moment that stupid basketball hit the blonde's head.
"I still can't believe he won't help me with my English even though I helped him!" The black haired girl huffs, pushing the music sheets away from her, a pout coming to her face. The three other girls in the room sweat drop when the girl jumped up on her desk and began to pace by walking on each table in the room. "This is an outrage! I was cheated! He tricked me!"
"Uh... Hinata-chan, please come down before you hurt yourself." Maiko Ando, says trying to get the girl from off the tables before a teacher sees her. It was unlikely as their club room's door is closed, but Maiko knew that her friend had the worst of luck sometimes and a teacher might see her through the windows and come barging in at no time.
"Hinata, get down we still have this last part to go over." Miki Umeko must have thought of the same thing as Maiko as she not only voices that but tugs on Noa's hand to get her attention. "Besides didn't you say that you weren't the one to give him the idea of joining the basketball club?"
Noa pauses and looks down before dropping to sit on the table instead. Tsuda Teibi sighs in relief, truly having thought that her friend might have fallen off if it weren't for Miki.
"Still.." But Noa shuts her mouth seeing the look that Miki was giving her and instead picked up the last paper that held music notes on them, a pout to her lips. "I'm only calming down because you asked me to, Ume-chan."
"Anyways, let's continue?" The other two girl nod their heads at the short haired girl's suggestion as Noa continues to sulk behind the paper. "I think we should change the second line to..."
It didn't really take long and soon, the four members of the Chinese Music Club, dismissed for the day. They promised to meet once again on Friday to finish up the week.
"See you later, Hinata-chan!" The dark haired girl known as Maiko waves quite cheerily, as she quickly followed after Miki, seeing as they lived in the same neighborhood and always walked home together. Tsuda was the last to leave when her car appeared. Telling her friend a goodbye, Noa watches as she enters the black sedan before it drives away.
Stretching her hands above her head, Noa lets out a sigh. She isn't surprised seeing a certain blonde waiting outside, a rather cheery smile on his face. It was only a week after the incident with the basketball hitting him in the head and the boy was already practicing. He had told her he would be joining the club next week.
"Done with your sweaty training?" Noa wrinkles her nose playfully at the boy when she is in hearing range. Ryōta gives the girl a look which clearly tells her he didn't find what she had said funny.
"My training isn't sweaty! I don't sweat." Noa scuffs at the words but gives him a grin.
"Yeah whatever."
A month passed and it seems Ryōta had successfully joined the basketball club and was even in the first string. Noa was happy for her friend, but really she was just glad he was finally out of her hair so that she can finally focus on her own self. She really didn't mind that he seemed to be irritated due to someone known as Kuroko who was acting as his mentor.
"I think that you need to learn from someone 'weak'." Using air quotes, Noa says while they have their lunch. She ignored the oblivious envious stares headed her way, or the group of girls who clearly want to come over to where the two sat, but knew better than to come over.
Even though she was no longer called 'Kowai Noa', Noa could still cause the 'Kise Fangirls' to cower away due to what she liked to call her 'special ability'.
Ryōta doesn't answer her and instead glares into his lunch. It was one of the few times that Noa saw the tween serious and she quietly enjoys the quietness that came with it.
"Oh please, Noacchi." He scoffs. The sneer leaves his face as he puts on an excited look while looking at her. "You are coming to watch the practice game this afternoon, right?"
Right, the game he had with this Kuroko person this afternoon...
"Yep, already told Miki and she said it was okay." For once, she wasn't actually lying. She had learned her lesson the last time to not ever lie to Miki, she would never forget the wrath that was shown to her that day. Noa inwardly shivers.
Noa didn't like basketball and found it extremely boring. But she had made a promise, and she wouldn't break this one. But sitting on the hard bench and watching Ryōta be cornered by bigger boys didn't actually have Noa screaming out her encouragement, she would leave that to the girls present in the second string's gym.
But somehow, he was able to work through it due to the passing of a ball with blinding speed. She didn't know who really passed the ball, but she thought it was weird how she didn't notice the supposedly Kuroko. Ryōta had described the boy to her and Noa would know a blue haired boy any where. Even if Ryōta says he's quite short.
She wasn't surprised when Ryōta's team won the game. Noa just knew he wouldn't lose. He never has and she had always thought he never would. Noa, like she promised, waited while everyone else headed home. She had been listening to music when her friend had finally entered back into the gym looking fresh.
"Hope you didn't have to wait long, Noacchi." Ryōta grins, as the girl gets to her feet and slips the headphones off and placed them securely around her neck. She wasn't allowed to wear them while in school as it wasn't apart of her uniform, so Noa usually kept it in her bag until classes ended. It seems she could wear them when school was dismissed though.
"Nope. So you won, huh?" Crossing her arms across her chest, she raises an eyebrow a smile on her face.
"Of course I did-ssu!" Ryōta rolls his eyes seeing the teasing look coming to her eyes when she heard the slight tick, the smug look on his face never removing throughout the whole ordeal. "I was good eh, Noacchi?"
"I wasn't really paying attention." Noa says truthfully and Ryōta brown eyes widen in disbelief. "Tsuda had bluetoothed this really cool song early on today and well..."
"Noacchi!"
"Is this your girlfriend?" Noa thought she jumped right out of her skin at the sudden voice and looking to Ryōta's right, there stood a blue haired boy. He was staring right at her with an almost blank look except for the slight curiosity in his blue eyes.
"E-eh? When did you get here, Kurokocchi?!" Noa pauses hearing the ending.
'I thought he didn't like this guy...'
"I was here the whole time." The blue haired boy says plainly. Noa holds back her surprise at his words and instead tried to do the most polite thing at the moment.
"Hi. You must be Kuroko Tetsuya-kun, I'm Hinata Noa. Pleased to meet you." Giving him a smile, she reaches out to shake his hand. Kuroko nods and shakes her hand also. "And no, I'm not Kise's girlfriend."
"You are not?" Tetsuya was only curious as to why his blonde teammate would be around another female if she wasn't dating him. From what Tetsuya had gathered, girls usually that hanged around Ryōta Kise was to either gain publicity- due to his work as a model- or to be his girlfriend.
"Eh? You thought Noacchi was my girlfriend?" Ryōta blinks twice from surprise at Tetsuya's words before laughing. "Y-you thought Noacchi was m-my girlfriend?"
"What is so funny?" Looking to the girl, he sees she rolls her eyes at the reaction of the blonde.
"Here we go..."
"What's funny is that you don't know, Kurokocchi." Seeing his confusion, Ryōta calms himself down but the smile never leaves his face. "Noacchi can't be my girlfriend because she's a lesbian."
