Kuroko had told Kise of his school holiday trip to his home town and somehow it had circulated their group of friends. They had all insisted they would come much to Kuroko's displeasure. Akashi apologised he couldn't come and that's how Kuroko was now stuck with Kagami, Aomine and Momoi whiles the others stayed at the hotel. Momoi was clinging to Kuroko, while Kagami and Aomine were throwing insults at one another on their way to buy lunch.

"Will you both stop?" Momoi turned to face the bickering basketball players. "It's getting a little old."

"It's not my fault he sucks." Aomine sniggered.

"Hey, say that to my face!" Kagami growled, reading to punch him. Kuroko however had decided to poke him in the side a little harshly.

"Kuroko, what the heck?" He winced as his held his side.

"You're both annoying." Kuroko announced before he turned and started walking off. The three of them looked at each other before following him. Kuroko noticed two boys ahead leaning on the wall. He felt like he knew them from somewhere, not being able to pin point where from he shook his head and continued ahead. Then he stopped when he heard one of the boys shout.

"Haru-chan!, Rei-chan!" The shorter boy shouted, he followed the blonde haired boy with his eyes to see a boy with black hair, deep blue eyes and an annoyed expression on his face. He saw him mutter something and the blonde boy pouted and released the boy from his grip, turning his attention to a tall boy with glasses. The taller boy from the wall approached them and gave them a friendly hello.

"Hey, why'd you stop Testu?" Aomine asked, almost running into the back of him. Kagami however wasn't paying attention and slammed into Aomine.

"Watch where you're going idiot!" The tanned boy yelled.

"Maybe you shouldn't just stop in the middle of the walk way!" The red haired teen replied even louder. Kuroko sighed heavily and Momoi giggled.

"Tetsuya-chan?" The light haired boy turned to see the group of boys looking at them. The blonde hair boy face had lit up in recognition of him and was running over. Kuroko eyes widen when the said boy slung his arms around his neck and held him.

"Nagisa, let him go." The boy with hazel hair and green eyes sighed.

"Tetsuya-chan, do you remember me?" Nagisa smiled at him as he let go. Kuroko's eyes widen in realisation hit him. He could never forget that smile.

"Nagisa?" Kuroko asked in disbelief.

"The very same. I haven't seen you since primary school!" Nagisa exclaimed.

"Who's this runt?" Aomine asked pointing at Nagisa.

"This is Nagisa, we went to primary school together." Kuroko introduced him to his friends.

"And I'm not a runt." Nagisa pouted at the tall brown teen. The rest of his friends had approached.

"Do you remember Makoto and Haru-chan?" He pointed to them. Kuroko looked up to see familiar kind green eyes and dead blue eyes. One with a happy grin and another with a bored expression. Makoto smiled and greeted him warmly while Haru just grunted and crossed his arms. Rei smiled and pushed his glasses up upon his nose and greeted Kuroko.

"I'm Rei Ryugazaki, pleasure."

"Tetsuya Kuroko." He heard a girly cough behind him and noticed Momoi wanted to meet his childhood friends.

"This is Momoi, Kagami and Aomine." Kuroko introduced, Momoi waved, Kagami grunted in greeting and Aomine was looking at Haru.

"Staring is rude, you know." Haru pointed out, causing Aomine to gap and look away. Kagami chuckled and decided he liked Haru.

"You know what? We should have lunch together!" Nagisa suggested excitedly, tugging on Kuroko's arm. Still energetic as ever he thought to himself, a slight smile on his face.

They were all crammed into one booth at Nagisa's favourite cafe. Nagisa, Kuroko, Kagami and Makoto were facing Rei, Momoi, Aomine and Haru.

"So what are you doing back in Iwatobi?" Makoto asked.

"We're on break at the moment and I thought it'd be great to come back, everyone else wanted to come to." Kuroko explained. "So, here we are."

"There's more of you?" Nagisa grabbed his arm.

"Yeah, but they're back at the hotel."

"What are you planning to do? You could come swimming with us. We have practice later. You should totally come!" He tugged on him enthusiastically.

"You're swimmers?" Kagami raised a brow.

"Yup, for our school. It's just the four of us though." Nagisa pouted. "We're aiming for Nationals."

Aomine snorted. "Swimming is a lame sport."

Haru elbowed the taller male hard and he grunted in pain and growled.

"What was that for?"

"Haru." Makoto scolded him, the black haired boy stuck out his tongue and frowned at Aomine.

"Sorry, he really likes to swim." Makoto apologised on his behalf.

"That's an understatement." Nagisa laughed. "He'd marry the pool if he could."

"That's creepy." Aomine commented, receiving another elbow to his side. The food then arrived, the swimmers eyes widened significantly at the mountain of burgers in front of Kagami.

"You're going to eat all of those?" Rei asked.

"Yeah." He shrugged like it was obvious.

"That is so not beautiful." Rei muttered to himself, Momoi heard him a gave out a little giggle, causing the butterfly swimmer to blush.

"What is that?" Aomine pointed to Haru's dish, scrunching up his face in disgust.

"Mackerel and pineapple. Want some?" Haru put the chopsticks in front of Aomine face.

"I'm alright, thanks." Aomine noticed the tiny smirk on the smaller teens face as he popped it in his mouth. They finished their lunch and headed out, saying goodbye and heading their own way.

"So we'll see you in a couple of hours. Remember your swimmers." Nagisa jumped up and down waving as they left. The basketball players went back to the hotel.

"Kurokochii, you're back." Kise came running up. "It's been so boring. Midorimacchi and Atsushichii were just lazing around."

"We asked if you wanted to come." Kuroko sighed. "So suffer."

"Kurokochii is so mean." Kise started to tear up.

"So what are we doing this afternoon?" Midorima came to greet them.

"We're going swimming with some of Kuroko's old friends." Kagami answered.

"Friends?" Kise piped up, no longer sad.

"From primary school." Kuroko explained.

"They're insane." Aomine added, making a cuckoo gesture. Kuroko gave him a scowl.

"I thought you hit it off with Haru." Kagami teased the tanned male. Aomine lunged at him and they fell to the floor. The others ignored them and went to the lounge room, where Atsushi was watching tv with a bowel of snacks.

"Welcome back." He waved lazily, not taking his eyes off the screen.

"Get off your bum." Momoi swatted at him after she switched the tv off. "We're going swimming."

The basketball players stood in front of the Iwatobi swim club, waiting for one of the members to bring them in. They waited two minutes before Rei emerged and brought them inside, showing them the changing room.

"You guys made it." Nagisa cheered.

"This is Nagisa." Kuroko introduced him to the other three. They all greeted him and Makoto who approached.

"Where's Haru-senpai?" Kuroko asked.

"Where he always is." Nagisa sighed. "In the pool."

All their eyes turned to see a body slicing through the water. He made it to the edge of the pool, breaking the water, removing his goggles and swim hat, shaking his hair. Haru looked over and noticed more people. He sighed slightly, rising himself from the pool and moved over to the crowd of people.

"And this is Haru-senpai."

Just as he blinked, a blonde was in his personal space, sizing him up.

"What are you doing?" Haru asked, eyes widen a bit as the tall blonde lifted one of his arms.

"Kise-kun, stop bothering him." Momoi grabbed Kise by the ear and dragged him away from the swimmer.

"Wait senpai?" Kagami asked confused.

"Haru and Makoto are a year older than us." Kuroko explained. "They graduate this year."

"Can we go back to swimming?" Haru asked Makoto bluntly. The captain just sighs and nods his head. The basketball players watch as the free swimmer walks back to the block and dives in gracefully.

"That was beautiful." Midorima whispered, pushing his glasses up.

"I know right." Nagisa exclaimed. "Come on. Let's have some fun."

They played shoulder wars, while Haru swam with Momoi. Aomine and Kagami noticed Momoi giggling at what Haru would say. They both scowled.

"He's just like Kuroko." Kagami whispered to Aomine. "Naturally good with girls. S'not fair."

Aomine watched the way Haru would show slight confusion on his face when Momoi would laugh, his deep blue eyes shining a little. The way his arms and shoulders flexed when he moved. Shit, this isn't happening. He thought to himself. I like girls with big tits, not 5ft 9 swimmers with glistening arm muscles. Shit! Thankfully he thoughts were interrupted when Nagisa suggested they do a relay. Momoi, Midorima and Kuroko offered to sit out to watch. The swimmers let the basketball players fight over who's captain of one team and who gets to pick first. The massive purple haired monster sighed and swam towards the swimmers.

"This may take a while." He smiled. He joined Haru floating on his back.

After a few minutes of rock, paper, scissors, Kagami got first pick. Kagami, Kise, Makoto and Rei against Aomine, Haru, Atsushi and Nagisa. They all lined up against each other, Makoto and Atsushi in the water ready to start. Momoi blew the whistle and the boys started. Makoto flew through the water, but Atsushi kept up, his long strides were impressive. The sugar eater fell behind after the turn around. Kise dived in and was followed by Nagisa who caught up and hit the wall just after Kise. Rei who practiced powered through his butterfly, Aomine fell behind. Kagami was in the water as Aomine hit the wall, his breathe hitched and watched in awe as Haru dived above him. Aomine saw Haru slice through the water effortlessly and caught up to Kagami at the turn about. He bolted through the water ahead of the red head and slammed his hand on the wall. Aomine cheered with his team and offered Haru his hand. The boy's eyes widen a little but took the hand none the less and grabbed a towel. Everyone's heads turned when they heard the pool doors slam open.

"Haru-chan!" Kou called out, she was accompanied by her brother and Sousuke. Gou went bright red and stared at the muscular strangers in her presence. Her eyes sparkled and she hid her face. Haruka's eyes went straight to the hand holding tightly on an injured shoulder.

"What did you do?" He asked annoyingly, walking over and pushing the butterfly swimmer into a chair.

"I-" Sousuke began.

"I don't care. Just stay there." Haru ordered and left. He came back with a bag.

"That's mine." The swimmer pointed out, frowning.

"I know, I borrowed it...Permanently." He started feeling the sore spot and smirked when Sousuke winced.

"You enjoy me being in pain, don't you?"

"Sometimes."

The others were watching their interaction, Aomine watched the way Haru's hands massaged the new comers shoulder and wondered what those hands would feel like on his shoulder. He closed his eyes and frowned. Stop thinking stuff like that, what's happened to you? Snap out of it.

"Are they dating?" Kagami broke the silence. Rin snorted and clapped him on the shoulder.

"Sousuke and Haru?" He laughed, he pointy teeth showing, making Kagami cautious. "No way, they hate each other."

"Doesn't look like it." Aomine growled a little. Haru was slowly rubbing some cream in and Sousuke had an relieved look plastered on his face. Haruka taped his shoulder up and slapped Sousuke's head.

"They do seem close." Momoi pointed out.

"They do?" Rin frowned. Momoi nodded. They both walked over and Sousuke addressed Rin.

"I'm gonna head back with Nanase, he wants to make sure I don't injure myself further."

"You coming back to the dorm though, right?"

"Nanase offered me to stay the night." Sousuke replied a little flustered. Aomine raised an eyebrow and I told you so look was aimed at Rin. The red headed swimmer frowned a little.

"Okay, well I guess I'll see you tomorrow."

Sousuke grunted and bid everyone goodbye. Heading to the door where Haruka was waiting.

"Huh, well what do you know." Rin smirked.

The rest of Kuroko's holiday consisted of constant messages from Nagisa, arguments between Kagami and Aomine, continuous questions about his primary school friends and after school hang outs with Nagisa, joined with the other swimmers and team mates. On the last day of his holiday the boys had accompanied the swimmers to the beach. The basketball players made their way to the beach, just a road away.

"God, it's so hot." Kagami complained.

"We've literally just got outside." Kise sighed, pushing his sunglasses on. "Hurry up, I want see Haruchii."

"You call him Haruchii?" Aomine questioned. "You literally met him a week ago."

"What," Kise shrugged. "I like him."

Aomine scowled and started walking, Kuroko slipped up beside him.

"You could cheer up. We're on holiday."

"I'm fine." He growled. Kuroko raised an eyebrow. "Alright, fine. Sorry."

"Did you not want to come today?"

"Of course, I just... it... Kise is annoying."

"Because he likes Haru-senpai?"

"No!" Aomine snapped. "Don't be ridiculous."

Kuroko smiled knowingly at him, "Okay, well just try to enjoy yourself."

Aomine nodded and smiled at Kuroko.

"Haru-chan, come back!" All heads twisted to see clothes flying in the air and a dark haired boy running towards the sea.

"I guess they're here." Atsushi grinned, taking off his shirt and joining Haru in the ocean. The rest walked over to the waving swimmers. They spent most of the day at the beach, they all swam and played games, a reluctant Haru joined.

They were all laying side by side on the sand, exhausted, staring up at the diming sky.

"Let's have dinner together. To say goodbye." Nagisa announced.

"Sounds great." Momoi exclaimed.

"Let's all eat at Haru's house." Nagisa teased the free style swimmer.

"Haruchii can cook?" Kise's eyes shone with admiration.

"Will you drop the chii." Haru scolded.

"So Haru's for dinner then?" Aomine asked. Before Nagisa could say no, Haru answered for him.

"Yes." He shot Aomine a amused look. "I hope you like mackerel."

The basketball players were standing in front of Haru's door, when they heard a crash. Midorima knocked on the door. Rei appeared and invited them inside, they removed their shoes and was shown into the sitting room.

"There's been a bit of a situation, dinner won't be too long."

"What happened?" Momoi asked.

"Nagisa." Rei replied like that explained everything. Makoto appeared with a disappointed Nagisa in tow.

"I just wanted to help Haru-chan."

"I know, but you know what he's like." Makoto smiled, looking up to see the expected visitors. "Oh, you guys made it."

Before they knew it dinner was finished and the basketball players had to make their leave. Nagisa was clutching onto Kuroko, refusing to let go.

"Nagisa, let him go." Rei helped Kuroko untangle himself from Nagisa death grip and hid behind Kagami's big form.

"It was nice to meet you all." Makoto smiled sweetly at them. "It's a shame you have to go."

"Thank you so much, it's been fun." Momoi thanked them.

Atsushi was standing next to Haru, "Lets swim together when we see each other next."

Haru nodded, a small smile on his face. "I'd like that."

"Swim with me too Haruchii!" Kise exclaimed, tugging on Haru's arm. Aomine intervened, dragging Kise by the collar.

"See you Haru." He saluted him. "Let's go Tetsu, we'll miss the train otherwise."

"It's been great to see you guys again. I hope we may catch up soon." They started down the steps of Haru's house. "Bye."
