Lost Green

by SPChan

Waiting for the train that would take him to a new life in Tokyo, Makoto remembers his last moment in Iwatobi when he confessed his love for Haruka, finding out that it was a one-sided feeling. What the owner of the lost green eyes doesn't imagine is that, not so far from there, they are the only thought in Haruka's mind.

"Understanding
How affection, it changed
Will able to see
Before it slips
Behind this dark lost green
Behind this dark all the... Please"

— Haru... I... Love you... I Just wanted you to know that, because... We know everything about each other, so… I wanted to tell you one last thing about me…

— Last thing? — Asked Haru, confused.

— Yes... I'm going to Tokyo... — Said Tachibana.

Moments of silence passed until a whisper was heard:

"I'm sorry... Makoto..."

He felt his chest tight, sadness escaped from his eyes warming his heart at that cold station where he was waiting for the train, remembering his confession. He had given his best. Haruka now knew about his feelings.

"Hey, Haru-chan... Why don't we join the swimming club?"

No, it's boring. Do it yourself.

But I wanna go with Haru-chan. It's meaningless without Haru-chan…"

In his bathtub, Haruka had a small blue dolphin between his legs and that memory of his childhood and the lost green of Makoto's eyes on his mind.

— Makoto! — Haruka grabbed Makoto's back at the station.

— Haru...? — Makoto didn't have the chance to finish, Haruka's lips sufocated Tachibana's words in a desperate kiss.

— I understood your feelings, Makoto. I… love you too…
