(Video from my newly created YouTube channel)

//Hehe.. sorry for late posting. No ideas you see, I got writers block.

this chapter is more like a filler in my opinion, and getting to know our newly introduced Kuroko

The classroom was filled with chatter as each pair of students got to know each other, right away  talking to their partners.  Akira sat at his seat entirely focused on his name tag, and ignoring the person who sat next to him and kept on prodding him. He was quite annoyed at this person by now. Why did he have to suffer at this point?

He didn't know himself.

He was happy that his and his sister's classes have merged, but why did it have to turn out this way? Fumiko didn't want to sit with him, them he was paired up with an extremely annoying person who kept on staring daggers into his head.

He absolutely despised it!

...

But then again, Fumiko would do the same.

It would even matter who was it.

How do he manage to score such an annoying and disastrous partner?

He honestly couldn't believe it himself.

~~flashback~~

Akira sulked in the corner of the room, mentally crying after what Fumiko said.  She knows that she is pushing his boundaries, she knows he doesn't feel comfortable with others, she knows about his social anxiety, so why?  He does know that  she wants him to become comfortable with others, but what if he isn't capable of doing that?

Well, technically he is.

He did become friends, cough cough, classmates  with Midorima and was able to talk to him.  It should be fine!

..

No.

Never.

Akira shrieked quietly when he felt a tap on his shoulder.

"Ack!"

Akira stumbled back even further into the wall without looking up.

The person  doubled over in laughter. Akira noticed the figure sliding onto the floor and rolling around in laughter. Akira sweat-dropped.

Welp, time to escape!

Or not.

Akira was tugged down through sheer force. He tumbled down and face planted onto the ground. Groaning, he sat up and rubbed his face.  Turning over to the "innocent" girl who had done this to him, he glared.

"What was that for?"

"Be my desk mate"

"No."

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes"

"No"

"No"

"Yes- wait no-!"

"You said yes so you are my partner now!"

"Nooooooo!!!"

~~flashback end~~

Right, that's how it happened.

That was down right horrifying.

Akira shivered at the mere memory of it.

Reminder to self, never trust a person who is dying of laughter,  now red flags shall appear if something starts laughing at self.

Yeah no.

For now, he was quite screwed, stuck with such an annoying brat. .. What was her name again? Right, it was Mastudora Rin.

Let's just stick to Matsu-chan.

_______

Midorima wasn't sure on what to make of this situation. His partner that sat right next to him  had the dame colored  hair as him, nearly the same eye color, a last name that nearly matched his first name, and nearly the exact same personality as him. Both snarky, annoyed easily, and silent. His green eyes glanced over to the girl besides him and flinched when their eyes met.

"What are you doing io?"

"What are you doing nandayo", Midorima shot back.

The girl leaned back and then glared even harder.

"Stop copying me, io!"
"You stop copying me nandayo!"

The girled turned away with her hands crossed.

"hmph"

Midorima turned away corssly as well, huffing in annoyance.

Mr.Shinsu watched the two, amused.

'What a funny pair..."

He shifted his gaze towards the rest of the class, who were all talking animatedly.

'Well, time to explain the project...'

Mr.Shinsu clapped his hands, making all the children's eyes shifting over to him.

"All eyes on me."

Everyone's eyes shifted over to Mr.Shinsu, except for a few people, those being Midorima,Taro and Akira. Mr.Shinsu's eyes scanned the room and frowned playfully when he noticed Akira, Taro and Midorima weren't listening.

"Sawada-kun, Midorima-kun, and Taro-chan, please listen when I speak."

Akira jolted from his memories and apologized over and over again.

"Sorrysorrysorrrysorry-"

"Sawada-kun, it's fine."

Akira stopped right away and looked into Mr.Shinsu's eyes. Mr.Shinsu smiled then frowned when he saw that both Taro and Midorima were still not listening.

"Taro-chan? Midorima-kun?"

Midorima heard the faint calling of his name but did not listen to it, instead staring at Taro, who in return glared at him with her most furious look,  Midorima copying her.

Akira switched his gaze over to Midorima and sighed.

This was going to be a long day.

________________________

Mr.Shinsu wiped invisible sweat off his brow in relief and annoyance.  Thanks to the "Taro" children, the class had been delayed for a extremely long time.  They had lost around 20 minutes of time where he could have explained their first "project" to them. Now they only had around an hour to get started on this project.

Then, it would  be lunch time.

From experience, lunch time was the most chaotic, and he absolutely despised it. It sucked. Children from varied classes would all come to his class to eat lunch, especially all his former students. Sometimes, his students that graduated would come by for a hello.

Yes, it was that chaotic.

He did have to tell his students beforehand, so they could escape the horror. Facing towards the class, who had all eyes on him, he cleared his throat.

"Ok, now that that is all settled, let's get started!"

Mr.Shinsu held up his example of the name tag.

"I'm going to explain my icebreaker, the name tag. The Raven class have already started this already so they are free to start their project."

Mr.Shinsu could feel half of the eyes dispersing and looking back down again.  Akira looked down right away, while listening to the small bits of silence he could get, ad Mr.Shinsu's talk.

"So, first, we need our colors, and a paper, which i will hand out to everyone. For this, we will write our name in the pencil crayon or marker color of your hair color, for example, my hair"

Akira looked up to see Mr.Shinsu pointing at his own colored hair, than picking up the marker.

"See?"

Akira watched as the everyone nodded quickly.

"Ok, good. Next you will draw things you like, dislike, hate,love, and basically anything about you, or anything you want to draw, as long as it is connected to you, and your interests.  understand?"

A hand was raised.

"Yes, Mokito-chan?"

"Can we write words?"

Mr.Shinsu's mouth twitched up into a smile.

"Yes, you may, if you have the vocab."

The girl nodded and put her hand down, feeling satisfied with the answer.  Mr.Shinsu looked around for more hands.

"Any more questions?"

After a moment of silence, Mr.Shinsu assumed that there were no more questions.

"Ok-"

Fumiko's loud voice suddenly pierced everyone's ears, making Akira quite mad, and annoyed, Midorima more madder, Momoi frighted and Mr.Shinsu  flinching from the loudness of her voice.

"Kuroko-kun had a question Mr.Shinsu!"

Akira watched as Mr.Shinsu's facial expression twisted from confusion, to guilt.

"Sorry Sorry Kuroko-kun, what was your question?"

Kuroko was too stunned at the fact that Fumiko did that for him, that he didn't register that fact that Mr.Shinsu had asked  him a question until Fumiko poked him.

"??"

Fumiko nudged him to face the teacher.

"Mr.Shinsu asked what your question was"

Kuroko nodded silently before speaking up to the class, who was listening quite intently.

"how is this an icebreaker?", Kuroko asked bluntly, making Akira sweat-drop. Fumiko only laughed and pat Kuroko on the back, surprising him.

"Mr.Shinsu hadn't explained that yet!!"

"oh ok."

Mr.Shinsu looked around, before reconfirming that he didn't miss anyone else, and that there where no more questions. Then, he turned back to the class and continued to explain.

"Ok, now that's dealt with, let me explain the icebreaker part of this. I would advise the Ravens to start listening again."

Midorima's head snapped up at Mr.Shinsu's comment, along with Akira's.  Midorima noticed Akira's head movement and only slightly glanced at him before turning away while muttering a small," Not like I care, nandayo."

The speaking had paused for a couple of seconds to let the Raven class to start listening, then soon started up again.

"So, for the icebreaker, we are going to first pair up with your partners, than find another group to talk with. Then you are too trade your papers with each other, look at them, then give them back. I will give you some time to do this, then I will explain the rest later."

Mr.Shinsu looked at his watch, and then back at the class.

"We have around 55 minutes left to start working on the projects, I will come around to pass the papers around, if you have any questions at all, please feel free to ask me up at my desk. Understood?"

Chorus of yeses and nods were scattered around the room.

"ok, that's good, let's get started."

__________

Akira focused on his attempt at drawing his favorite book, Harry Potter. It was a fascinating book about magic and fantasy combined. It was also a tough book for him to read, so it was taking him a while to read through the book. The main character  Harry was a magic person whose parent's had died and was now living with his evil aunt and uncle. He greatly enjoyed this book and was attempting to draw the book out, and draw Harry Potter as well if he could. Akira was so focused that he didn't notice the stares he had accumulated from his desk mate.

Matsudora stared knifes into her desk mate's head, but he didn't budge. Matsudora huffed and glared even harder, cheering mentally when Akira turned around with an annoyed look on his face.

"Stop"

Matsudora's face fell when Akira turned away right away to focus on his work. Sulking, Matsudora slumped back into her chair, while mindlessly drawing on her paper. All she wanted to so was become better buddies with her desk mate.

Oh the misery that her partner didn't talk at all.

How did she even get such a boring partner?

Oh right, she did this to herself, she asked him to be partners.

She slammed her head into the table and groaned, causing Akira to look over, than look away emotionlessly.

'What a weird girl..'

___________

Fumiko popped in and out of her consciousness as she listened to Kuroko babble on endlessly about some random stuff. Usually she would be babbling endlessly, but it seems as if Kuroko had decided to take that idea away from her. She didn't know herself, but to her it looked as if Kuroko took a liking to her. Is this how Aki felt whenever she talked?

nah.

She never talked that much.

Glancing at Kuroko's paper, she noticed a horribly sketched picture of a book.  Taking this as a chance to stop Kuroko's babbling, and take lead of the conversation, Fumiko spoke up.

"You like reading, Kuroko-kun?"

Kuroko's ramble instantly stopped as he turned towards Fumiko to respond. Fumiko mentally cheered.

"Yes i do."

Fumiko nodded, noting that down into her info on the Kuroko memory slot.

"Which type of books do you like? My brother likes fantasy."

"I like books without images."

Fumiko gasped dramatically.

"Cool! How can you understand books without images? I don't know how my brother does  it, every time I ask, he just tells me I'm stupid! "

Fumiko then started to ramble, making Kuroko sweat-drop at the slight irony. // the irony being taht it was him first rambling but the roles were reversed

He returned to his work, attempting to block out her rambles, and failing.

This was going to be a long hour.

..

Or not.

___________

The rest of the hour flashed by within seconds. Both Akira and Fumiko could swear that the time passed so fast that they didn't realize that it was lunch already. So the both of them were quite startled when the lunch bell rung.

"Ehhhh, it's lunch already?", Fumiko complained to her brother as soon as she reached his desk.

"Yeah I know", Akira replied in a monotonous voice.

" I do agree with the two of you."

The twins jumped in fright and turned to face their tormentor, who stared back at them emotionlessly. His light blue hair flopped to the side as he tilted his head in confusion.

'What did I do?"

"You just.. you know what, never mind"

Fumiko nodded her head excitedly along with Akira's statement.

"Yeah yeah, Kuroko-kun, stop sneaking up on us like that! It's like your invisible!!"

Kuroko's head drooped at her statement. His eyes subtly started to well up with tears.

"Really...?"

"Gah, sorry!! NO DON'T cry!"

Fumiko ran round Kuroko while attempting to soothe Kuroko.

At his desk, Akira deadpanned at his sister's craziness.

"Your sister is crazy, nandayo."

Akira flinched at the voice before calming is racing heart at the remembrance of the voice.

"Midorima-kun, why are you here?"

"Because i am."

Akira sweat-dropped at his answer.

"Do you need something?"

Midorima pushed up his glasses.

"Let's eat lunch together, not with your annoying sister though, she looks busy nandayo."

Akira glanced over to Fumiko who was talking animatedly to Kuroko. He smiled gently then turned back to Midorima.

"Sure"

Bonus scene:

Fumiko whipped her head to not see Akira anymore.

"Eh, where did Aki go?"

"He went with Midorima-san"

Fumiko shrieked , then looked over to see Kuroko deadpanning at her.

"Stop doing that Kuroko-kun!"
