AoKuro

AoKuro is the Slash ship between Tetsuya Kuroko and Daiki Aomine from the Kuroko's Basketball fandom.

History
They met during their Junior high years after Aomine heard the rumor of there being a ghost, but it turned out it was just Kuroko, they immediately became friends and Aomine was Kuroko's "light", he even acknowledged Kuroko's basketball skills.

Season 1
Aomine later meets Kagami, Kuroko's new "light"and tells him during a one on one that his light is way too dim and he can't bring out Kuroko's full potential like he can.

During their Interhigh match, Aomine walks up to Kuroko and tells him to come out of the bench, so they can settle the match and to show him the new light and shadow (Kagami and Kuroko.) The benched teammates in Touou, after the match began talking crap about Kuroko because his team lost miserably, Aomine got extremely irritated by this and pushed one of the guys onto a locker.

Season 2
During a trip to the hot springs, Kuroko gets dizzy because of the steam and thinks its best if he gets out to go lay down on a hallway bench with a towel over his head where Aomine gives him a drink and says "here". Kuroko says thank you without realizing it was Aomine but then recognizes the voice and gets up quickly in a shocked manner. Aomine stares back at him and tells him "It's been awhile, Tetsu."

Before the Seirin vs Touou match in the winter cup, both Kagami and Kuroko walk up to Aomine, Kuroko has his eyes close and old flashbacks of their junior high years appear where Aomine tells Kuroko that they don't ever agree on anything else but they play basketball well together. Kuroko tries the Ignite pass Kai on Aomine and it succeeds passing him causing a shock to Aomine, he shrugs it off unfazed and tells Kuroko, it seems like he'll have fun with him too. After Kuroko tried to pull his vanishing drive on Aomine and fails, Aomine tells him that he can't defeat the light because a shadow cannot exist without light. A Kuroko who is pissed off by this comment, tries to pull off an ignite pass but is blocked by Aomine in an instant. He tells him not to disappoint him so much anymore.
