The whispers follow him out the gymnasium and into the hospital. The paramedics accompanying him in the ambulance ask questions about his pain level and about his day as they try to stabilize his knee and all he can hear is the great gust of the ground falling out beneath his feet.
The next time he blinks, he’s sitting in a hospital bed, knee wrapped in tight bandages and elevated above the mattress. There’s a doctor writing something in a clipboard who smiles encouragingly when he sees that Kiyoshi is awake.
“Young man,” the doctor begins, “you play basketball, right?”
Something like despair worms its way into his heart; Kiyoshi can already guess where this conversation is going. “I won’t stop playing,” he says more calmly than he feels. “No matter what.”
It’s either surgery with a stupidly long rehabilitation time—one that would crush any chance of playing basketball in high school, with Seirin—or a lesser recovery plan that would let him back on the court in under than a year but potentially cripple him for life.
Kiyoshi already knows what his choice will be.
“A basketball team?” Riko asks, eyes wide. “You’re kidding, right?”
Kiyoshi tilts his head. “Why do you think that?”
Riko does her best impression of a fish. “You have the minimum number for a club and you think that you’ll be able to pull a team together? If you aren’t aiming for the top, I want no part in it. Don’t waste my time.”
It’s a valid reason, and Riko is too clever to sign her name next to a team that won’t appreciate her talents. Kiyoshi’s team is rough around the edges, and some need a little more prodding than others, but the most important thing is that they all want to play. They may not be championship material yet, but the fun of it is etched in their very bones.
But just this isn’t enough to sway Riko. “What can I say to convince you?” Kiyoshi asks instead.
Riko scoffs. “I’ve heard of you, Kiyoshi Teppei. A talented player—they called you one of the uncrowned kings, and yet you’re here, at some no-name school that doesn’t even have a basketball team. How much do you even like basketball?”
“I love it.” The words tumble out of his mouth with little thought. A rush of joy flushes through his body when he remembers the weight of the ball in the palm of his hand. The wind in his hair as he jumps for a throw. The thrill of a team moving together like a well-oiled machine. Of victory and of loss.
Evidently, this is not the answer Riko had been expecting. She stares, as if trying to gauge the sincerity of his words. “…Love?”
“Love,” Kiyoshi agrees. Because there’s no other way to describe it, this feeling he has. “With all my being.”

This is it. This is your last game, maybe forever, but definitely the last with Seirin. The team for which you laid the foundation yourself with your own hands, carefully, to sit back on your heels and let Hyuuga and Riko and Izuki take the reins, to come back and see what they and all the others had built up, that the first-years had built on top of, so intricately and sturdily and beautifully.
This is not your middle school team. This is not the team where you were the only one who believed; this is the team where everyone else believes and pulls you along when your knee is sore and you’re not feeling too certain of anything yourself. You ask Riko in a roundabout way and, because she’s Riko, she knows what you’re saying and gives you the reassurance you need. You don’t have to ask Izuki, but he’ll invite you over for a meal with his family, and you can sit and eat a home-cooked meal and listen to them sling puns at each other and bicker and be a part of it.
You can go one-on-one with Kagami and know he’s giving it his all, that he won’t concede and he won’t half-ass it. You can ask Furihata for your stat line and he’ll give it to you. You can receive Kuroko’s passes, firmly in your hands, and dunk them straight through the hoop. You can jump, to shoot or block or get a hand in, and know that you won’t land surrounded by opponents with your teammates not even trying to get open or peel them away.
You can only give them so much; you can only give them all your being. Time runs out; you can lean on your leg until the muscles shred themselves, until you’re lying on the floor again and can’t stand on your own. And they will pick you back up, all over again. You’ll say, let’s have fun, and it will make them smile and agree, and they’ll run out on the court with you, not after you, not just at the same time as you.
You may win; you may lose. You’ve gotten this far, though, kept it going as long as you could. The end is here, but you’ll all face it together. This is a team, not individuals, not you and each of them. No matter the outcome, you’ll give your best, and your best will be damn well good enough.
