Hi! So this is my first story for Free only. I don't really have much to say about it for now. Just that I hope you'll all enjoy it and please check out those two stories I wrote for Free and Fairy Tail.

Each chapter will contain the happenings of one day only. However they might refer to things happening at other days that are not included.

I apologize for any mistakes that might be and hope it is not too disturbing. It should be corrected though. (Most of it anyway)

Enjoy!

Monday - August 18th

It was a regular day at Iwatobi High. Tachibana Makoto and Nanase Haruka were walking down the hallway in the direction of the roof. Makoto was really excited to tell something and Haru could tell that from the expression on his friend's face.

Makoto took a deep breath to calm himself before speaking.

"So… My family are gonna go camping in two weeks. We're going to camp by a lake and my parents say that you can come along if you want," Makoto smiled already knowing the answer. He'd also told his parents that he most likely won't have to ask.

Haruka nodded.

They turned a corner and walked up a set of stairs. Makoto smiled. The nod was as good as an "I'd love to come along" when it came from Haru.

"I'll tell them that then. Though we're gonna leave on Friday morning so we'll miss school that day," Makoto said.

They were half way up the stairs when Nagisa came running towards them from the top of the stairs. "Haru-chan! Mako-chan!" he yelled. His face was shining so brightly with happiness it would put the sun to shame. He ran down towards Makoto and Haruka and hit Haru full force causing both of them to fall down the stairs.

"Haru! Nagisa!" Makoto yelled as he turned to see his two friends at the bottom of the stairs.

"Nagisa-kun!" Rei came running to the top of the stairs, when he saw Haru and Nagisa lying at the bottom of the stairs it didn't take him long to figure out what had happened and both he and Makoto rushed down to the two boys on the floor.

Haru had landed on the floor with Nagisa on top of him. He had a wrist stuck under him between the floor and his body. Nagisa had his head resting on the older boy's chest but now he sat up, his magenta eyes looked terrified at Haru.

"Haru-chan, are you okay?" he asked looking at his friend as he sat up and got off of Haruka.

"Lay off with the –chan already," was the comment before Haruka got up himself.

"Haru?" Makoto looked concerned at his friend. "Are you okay?"

Haru nodded letting that be enough to answer Makoto's question.

Rei was already in the process of inspecting Nagisa for anything that could've happened to his body during the fall. He was grateful when he found the boy to be unharmed.

Makoto also made an attempt to check Haru for anything that could've happened but before he could get very far with that, the other pulled away.

"I'm fine," Haru sighed.

"If you say so," Makoto said though he wasn't sure he really believed his friend for a change.

"You better take notes to what I'm saying," the teacher said causing everyone in class to grab a pen and paper. Their teacher said some important things and everyone took notes.

Makoto was eying Haruka through the corner of his eye. To him it appeared that the other had some difficulty writing though it wasn't easy to tell. The other's face was expressionless; the only way to see it was the way he held his right wrist.

As the afternoon went by the signs of something being wrong with Haru got more and more obvious. Makoto got more worried for each sign the other dropped and when school finally finished he'd made up his mind.

"We should have you checked out at the hospital," he told Haruka as they left the building on their way to the pool for swimming.

"I'm fine," Haru said once again. The phrase had started to annoy Makoto to no end because it was obvious to everyone that Haru was NOT fine.

"Let's see how practice goes but I can't help but worry that something's wrong," he sighed as they made it to the pool.

Haruka had only been in the water for half a minute or so when Rei walked up to Makoto with a worried look on his face as he would eye Haru every other moment.

"What's wrong with Haruka-senpei?" Rei asked "His style in swimming is different than usual"

Makoto nodded. "I don't know but I've noticed it too," he answered while looking out at his friend in the pool.

"Do you think it has something to do with the fall he and Nagisa-kun took down the stairs earlier?" Rei asked as Nagisa also joined the two.

"I'm afraid so,"

"Someone should stop Haru-chan," Nagisa said. "He's in pain,"

Makoto hadn't noticed until Nagisa pointed it out to them, but the younger boy was right. The pain was obvious on Haruka's face at this point.

"Haru!" he called out to the other. "Get out, we're going to the hospital."

Makoto didn't notice this but he had a strict tone to his voice that was unusual for him to have that caused Haru to get out of the water just at that point instead of waiting until he had finished swimming or thought they'd been waiting long enough.

Haru got out of the water and got himself dressed and only five minutes after Makoto had told him to get out of the water, he was ready to go.

Makoto apologized to the others for not being able to stay and practice with them to which they answered that it was fine and then he and Haru left to the hospital.

The walk to the hospital only took about twenty minutes and since there was nobody waiting to be checked out when they got there, they got to see a doctor within ten more minutes. Makoto was glad it went so fast because over the afternoon he had almost grown worried sick about his best friend.

The doctor scanned Haru's wrist which Haru had told hurt a bit and they didn't have to wait long for a result to come from the scanning.

"It's nothing too fancy," the doctor said. "It's just a broken wrist."

Even if it was 'nothing fancy' as the doctor so friendly put it Makoto was still worried about his friend and the news didn't help too much.

"What does that mean?" Makoto asked when Haru didn't say a word.

"I'd like to put your wrist in plaster, Nanase," the doctor looked at Haru who nodded knowing he didn't really have much of a choice despite the doctor made it sound that way.

And so the doctor put Haru's wrist in plaster while Haru barely even bothered to look but was much more busy studying Makoto's expression.

"You don't have to worry," Haru said causing Makoto look at him.

"I can't help it," Makoto smiled.

"It could've been worse," the doctor said. "The bone has only cracked. You only need to wear this for about a month from now on"

"Doctor?" Makoto looked at the doctor. "Is there anything we need to remember due to the plaster?"

The doctor nodded. "Even if the plaster is strong you shouldn't use your wrist too much, strain it," he said "But most importantly the plaster must not get wet, that means no contact with water"

Both boys looked terrified at the doctor but especially Haruka. He couldn't believe he could not have contact with water for a month. It was so much it was unbearable.

"So… can he still take a bath and such?" Makoto asked.

"That's permitted" The doctor smiled kindly at the teen. "But he has to make sure the plaster doesn't get into the water, that's what is to not happen,"

Even if it was just a broken wrist it seemed to be trouble enough for Makoto. In a school with a pool nearby, with Haruka's habit of soaking in the bathtub and with the camp by the lake coming up then what was he supposed to do?

I bet stories like these are nothing new to anyone.

Also another matter that I forgot about. I don't know what it feels like or what it takes to break a bone even if both a friend of mine and my younger sister have both had a broken wrist once (just like Haru) I have never really been able to understand what it was like. And I have never had a broken bone myself for that matter.

Putting all that aside, thanks for reading this first chapter of a much longer story. It will be continued on an almost daily basis (as much as it's possible) so that's about it. I've already written the entire thing.
