A/N: I don't usually like the openings and endings to anime, but Free! has good ones, it's hard not to love them, especially the ending. Therefore, this is based sort of on the ending and the idea is that Rin gives Haru water whenever he comes to visit on his never ending journey through the desert. Anyways, I hope you enjoy this and let me know what you thought. :)

Pertinacious
"Beg."
A disgruntled whimper escapes Haruka's dry, chapped lips as he can feel the other man's calloused hands tighten their already threatening grip on Haruka's throat. Their faces are mere inches apart (Haruka can feel the other's hot breath dancing on his skin) and the tattered scarf covering Haruka's mouth, the item hiding exactly just how parched he is, is slipping down to reveal his watering mouth. A vicious grin full of razor sharp teeth appears on Rin's visage then as a snarky laugh emits from him.
"Say it."
The resistance in Haruka's mind is breaking down more and more and when he feels his eyes closing, he finally submits and groans in a raspy voice,
"Please."
"As you wish," Rin growls and carefully lifts a vase filled to the brink with sparkling water. It swishes round and round and occasionally drips onto Haruka's face which causes him to blink rapidly from the shock of the cool water on his burning face. The situation is torture to Haruka as Rin is, as usual, being tantalizingly slow in delivering his promised gift.
Soon, oh soon, water is cascading down Haruka's face in the image of a waterfall and it is such a refreshing feeling that Haruka finds himself opening his mouth and lapping up all the water that he can manage – it has been nearly too long since the last time Haruka was able to ask Rin to give him water after crossing the desert with none. All the while, Rin wears an even more smug smirk as he watches the last drip of water roll down Haruka's cheek.
Rin revels in the sight before him that even when that water is gone, Haruka's lips remain parted and eyes half lidded in a mix of pure pleasure and silently wishing for more to come. The opportunity is too grand that Rin cannot help when he leans down and ghosts his lips against Haruka's in a sensual manner.
"See you next water time," Rin cruelly chuckles and wastes no time in retreating to the connecting room, sparing but one look at the pathetic image of Haruka drenched in water and panting. And yet, it is the loveliest sight he has ever laid his bloodlusting eyes on and cannot wait until the next time Haruka stops by to ask for water.
