Hi there! I just felt the need to write more Rintori cause hot damn I just love these two dorks.

Disclaimer: I don't own Free! :'(

Rin was not in a good mood today, and it was all Nitoris fault. That boy just did not understand how cute he was. Especially to other guys besides Rin. Today for example in swimming practice he overheard a group of guys practically confess their love to the small grey haired boy. They all gathered around him and started to praise him on his sweet innocent looks. One of them even invited Nitori out on a date! Right in front of Rin! They knew that Nitori was his, but that didn't stop them. Rin swore that the guy that invited Nitori out met his eyes right when Nitori said yes.

He wasn't exactly sure of the date details. That's why he decided to 'tag along'. He invited Makoto because he felt that he was the only one capable of the Iwatobi group to actually getting some work done. Nagisa was too loud, Rei was too obvious, and Haru... well Haru was Haru.

"So why is he here!?" Rin hissed, pointing his finger accusingly at the blue haired boy who looked unamused and slightly pissed off.

"Well today was our date night, and Haru didn't want me to leave." Makoto confessed, offering a gentle smile at the pissed off redhead.

"You can't take him from me." Haru mumbled as he clung possessively onto Makotos arms.

Rin rolled his eyes. "Whatever! Just keep it down. Nitoris already here." He looked over to see Nitori meet up with the guy who asked him out. "I can't believe this guy asked him on a date. It's clear that he is mine. Who does he think he is?"

"You confessed to him?" Makoto asked, surprised that Nitori would go out with another man when his beloved senpai just confessed.

"What? No! Why would I confess to him?" Rin screamed as a heavy blush spread across his face.

Haru placed his hand over Rins moving mouth. "Shhhh they're moving."

They all began to suspiciously follow the inconspicuous grey haired boy to a nice cafe.

"Why are you surprised he's going on a date when you haven't even told him how you feel." Makoto whispered as they hid behind some shrubs right next to the cafe window.

"Well... uhmm I just haven't gotten the chance to. You know with my busy schedule I can't waste much time on personal affairs." Rins eyes followed Nitoris slim figure as a waiter sat them at a table. He felt a wave of jealousy pass him as he saw Nitori laugh at something his date said.

"What do you mean you have no time? Your his roommate." Haru held a satisfied smirk as he watched his friends head snap away from his crush. "I bet your too afraid to even confess. Not like me and Makoto" Haru moved over to Makotos lap to prove that he wasn't afraid. Makoto blushed furiously, but didn't push the blue eyed beauty away.

Rin rolled his eyes "Well it was so obvious that you guys liked each other, but it's not the same with Nitori. We haven't been friends for years, and I dont even know of he likes me." He looked away from the two boys who looked like they were having a silent conversation through their eyes.

Makoto offered Rin a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "It's okay Rin, though I am pretty sure Nitori likes you, but next time you see him you definitely have to confess, or else he will never know how you feel."

Rin shrugged and avoided eye contact with both boys as they got out of the shrubs and followed Nitori to his next date destination.

"What are they doing in a women's clothing store! That guy better not be a pervert! If he's gonna make my Nitori dress up in some weird shit I swear I am going to kill him!" Rin tried storm into the store but was stopped by a pair of strong arms pulling him in the opposite direction.

"Now now maybe they have a men's section too. We should check it out first." Makoto kept his arms around the redhead until he calmed down enough to stand on his own. Haru on the other hand had his hands on his hips and looked extremely pissed.

"Why the fuck are you mad?!" Rin gestured wildly to the blue haired boy. Haru rolled his eyes and walked away from the lively pair.

"Wai- Haru-chan! Sorry Rin, but I should go follow him." Makoto waved goodbye as he ran away from the confused redhead.

"Guess that leaves me on my own." He mumbled under his breath. Not knowing what to do he grabbed a shopping cart and walked through the doors.

"What the fuck?!" He looked at the clothes hanging on the racks. This definitely was not a women's store. These small frilly things were not made for grown women. He picked one up and curiously inspected the small clothing.

"12 months eh? Why is Nitori looking at baby clothes?" He shook his head as a stupid thought crossed his mind.

Men can not get pregnant.

He continued his way deeper into the store where he saw a flash of grey through the shelves.

"Ah! This looks like it will look nice. Do you think she will like it?" Rin tried to shoo away the chills that came with Nitoris soft sweet voice.

"Eh? I don't know? That's why I invited you to come. I really don't know kids well, and since you seemed so childlike I thought maybe I should invite you." Nitori let out a little groan at his friends words.

"Well I don't mean that your not manly, but you know since your so cute I just thought that you would know what to get for my niece. I mean I am not flirting with you cause I know you and Rin are in a relationship, so I don't mean to interfere. I know it bothered him that I invited you. He was shooting daggers at me when I asked you to come, but it was really my last resort. I just don't know what to get my niece for her birthday."

Nitori let out a little shriek "You think me and Rin-senpai are going out? What do you mean? He doesn't like me." Nitori turned toward the shelf to hide his face from his friend.

Blue eyes met maroon through the thin shelf.

"Rin-senpai?"

Rin froze and looked around nervously. Not seeing any other option he grabbed a baby hat and set it on his head. He began to quickly walk away from Nitori who was at his heels.

He felt a small hand grab his shoulder and turn him around. "Rin senpai is that you?"

"Uhmm no. You must have me confused with someone else. Rin tried to avoid eye contact, but was pulled in by Nitoris enchanting gaze.

"What are you doing in a store like this?" Nitori pulled Rins hat off and chucked it aside. Rins breath hitched as he felt Nitoris warm hand brush across his face.

"Oh you know just shopping for Gou. She really likes this stuff." He picked up a tiny shirt and showed it to Nitori to prove his point.

Nitori looked at the shirt suspiciously, but didn't object to Rins reasoning. "Okay... Well since your here would you like to join me in finding Takuya-sans niece a present. She's just a baby so he didn't know what exactly she would like. That's why he asked me if I could help him." Takuya reluctantly came along with his cart and greeted Rin

"This isn't a date?" Rin asked trying to keep his relief contained.

"N-no. I am just helping Takuya out." Nitori looked expectantly at Takuya who nodded his head vigorously.

"Y-yes I would never get between you two." He added, pointing at the two boys who were blushing horribly. "As a matter of fact I already found an outfit for her, so I am just gonna take my leave. Bye bye thank you for helping!" Both boys watched curiously as he grabbed a random outfit from a rack and payed for it without turning back.

"I think he grabbed a boys outfit."

"Yeah..."

They both stood awkwardly in the store that was quickly getting crowded with blubbering kids and stressed out moms.

"You wanna get out of here? We could maybe grab an ice cream?" Rin offered lamely. Saying he was uncomfortable in this feminine store was an understatement. And sure enough he and Nitori were getting strange looks from the surrounding women.

"Sure but I don't have any money on me." Nitori patted his empty pockets and tried to hide his disappointment. Takuya promised that he would pay for Nitoris meal so he decided not to bring any money. He silently cursed his unpreparedness. A chance like this did not come every day.

Rin sensed Nitoris uneasiness and put his arms around the smaller boys shoulder. "What are you talking about Ai? I'll pay for you...kinda like a date? I m-mean only if you want it to be!... Do you want to go out on a date...with me?"

Nitoris head snapped up at the mention of the word date. "D-date? With Rin-senpai? Yes! I mean yeah sure whatever you want I don't mind." He silently chastised himself for getting too excited. It was well known that he was a bad liar, and he was sure that Rin saw right through his horrible facade. He was just to kind to point it out.

"Okay then. Let's go." Rin kept his arm around Nitoris shoulders as he ushered him to the small ice cream shop. He was very happy when Nitori scooted closer to him so that he wouldn't get lost in the crowds of people. With them being this close he was able to smell the sweet scent of Nitori. It was something like lavender with a hint of chlorine. He didn't know when he grew so fond of the smell, but just the thought of it calmed him to the point of putting him in a daze.

"Rin-senpai? Rinnn-senpai? Hello?"

"Wha- Nitori whats up?"

"Well were here at the ice cream shop already so I don't know if you want to order or..."

"Order. Yes yes I will order for you. What do you want? And dont worry about price it's my treat." He patted Nitoris head and patiently waited for an answer.

Nitori fidgeted nervously and started playing with his fingers. Rin had to resist the urge of kissing him when he began to nervously bite his bottom lip. "Well I was kind of thinking of sharing one l-like the couple over there." He pointed with shaking hands at a lovey dovey couple sitting in a corner booth feeding each other ice cream from a huge bowl.

Rin blushed and tried to hide his excitement. "Oh yeah. Sure. Yup. Totally. We should do that. I mean this is a date, right?"

Nitori nodded his head vigorously. "Yes it is."

"Well then I will get that bucket. Is vanilla and strawberry fine?"

"Yes!"

"Okay... I am gonna go in line then." He left Nitori with an awkward pat to the shoulder.

Nitori looked around the shop curiously occasionally meeting Rins expectant eyes. He gave a small smile and laughed as Rin pretended to choke the loud children in front of him. He shook his head and wagged his finger at the laughing red head.

"Sir? Sir! What would you like to order?"

Rin turned around and realized it was already his turn to order. "Sorry uhmm can I have the l-love bucket? With vanilla and strawberry?" Rin shook his head. Out of all the names on the board he and Ai had to pick out the most embarrassing to order.

The cashier chuckled. "Sure thing. Would you like one spoon or two spoons?"

"One spoon please."

Another chuckle from the cashier. "Okay sir enjoy your date."

Rin walked away happily with the bucket of ice cream and one spoon in tow.

Wait.

One spoon?

He turned to the table and then to himself. There was obviously two of them. Why did he only get one spoon? He was about to turn around to get another one when he realized how long the line had gotten. Surely by the time he gets another, the ice cream would already be melted.

"Rin-senpai! Why are you just standing there? Get over here." Nitori motioned across the shop for the redhead who reluctantly walked over.

"Well... the thing is I kind of only got one spoon cause I am used to just ordering for me, so two spoons didn't even cross my mind."

Nitori blushed bright red. "Well I am fine with it, but only if you are. I don't wanna force you if you don't want to share." Nitori really hoped that Rin couldn't see his excitement. This was just like an indirect kiss, and he might even get the chance to feed Rin! It was just like a dream he had once, and he did not want this opportunity to pass him.

Rin smiled his signature shark tooth smile. "Of course I want to share! Well then you can go first. This shop is famous for their fresh taste." He took a seat and passed the bucket to Nitori who hesitantly brought the spoon up to his mouth. One bite was all he needed to believe Rins words. He didn't know that ice cream could taste like this! Rin definitely had to try it. "Rin-senpai! It's delicious! Here try it!" Nitori brought a spoonful up to the redheads mouth. He was leaning across the table so that he wouldn't drop the spoon.

Rin opened his mouth and took the spoon in. He had already been to this ice cream shop so he knew how good it was, but he didn't want to let Nitori down so he asked for another spoonful. Nitori nodded his head and quickly drew another dollop of ice cream from the bucket.
"Here you goooo." He sang as he put it in the blushing redheads mouth.

"Maybe you should come to this side so that you wont have to stretch across the booth." Rin offered lamely. He didn't want to make it too obvious that he wanted the grey haired boy closer to him.

"Ah okay! Good thinking."

Nitori walked around the booth and came to the other side where Rin was waiting with one arm up. He slid in gracefully and sat flush with Rins side where a warm arm wrapped around his stomach. Unknowingly he let out a sigh that he had been holding since he met his beloved senpai.

"How about I feed you some ice cream?" Rin asked. Nitori nodded his head and opened his mouth expectantly. With eyes half lidded Rin tried not to have a nosebleed right at the moment.

Oh yeah the ice cream! He picked up some vanilla and clumsily dropped some on the boys cheek. He also put too much of it on the spoon so he watched as some of the sticky white stuff dribbled off the smaller boys lips. And that was it. That was all it took for him to grab Nitoris head and lick some off with his tongue. He felt Nitori stiffen beside him, but he never pulled away. Taking this as permission Rin brought his lips to Nitoris and gave him a soft sweet kiss which the other boy quickly returned. They kissed for as long as they could hold their breath. Which is a good amount of time considering both boys were competitive swimmers.

Rin was the first to pull away so that he could look Nitori in the eyes. "I like you."

Nitoris eyes widened in surprise. Even after the passionate kiss he was still surprised to hear the words coming out of his senpais mouth. "Senpai! I really like you too!"

Rin smiled and held the smaller boy against him. "Well I hoped so. I mean you didn't hold back from that kiss."

Nitori blushed against Rins chest. "Senpai!" He squeaked embarrassed by his actions.

"I am just playing. I am just playing."

Nitori pulled himself away from Rin and sat up from the booth. "Well I think we should make our way back to the dorms. It's already getting dark."

Rin nodded and grabbed Nitoris hand. "I don't want you to get lost, so I think it's best if I hold your hand." Nitori nodded in agreement and they slowly made their way back to their shared dorm.

Nitori hoped Rin wouldn't feel uncomfortable being alone with him since the redhead now knew how he felt. He glanced nervously at Rin who was watching him curiously from his bed.

"Why are you so nervous?"

Nitori jumped up from his stiff position. "Eh? What do you mean?"

"You keep on glancing at me uneasily and I am started to get worried. I wont do anything if you think that I am."

"No that's not the problem!"

"Then what is?" Rin stood up and cornered Nitori against the wall.

Nitori looked down and bit his lip. "Well I just don't want senpai to feel uncomfortable since he knows I like him now."

Rin sighed and rubbed the back of his head. "Ai... I like you too! Why are you doubting that? I know I am not the best at expressing myself, but I wouldn't lie about that!" He walked back to his bed and let out a long sigh. "Come here."

Nitori walked over and stood awkwardly next to Rins lying figure. "Y-yes?"

Rin suddenly grabbed his wrists and threw him on the bed. He pinned Nitori under him and started nipping lightly on his ears.

Nitori let out a shaky breath, but didn't stop the redheads actions.

"Nitori."

"Yes?"

"I like you, okay? There's so much I want to do with you, but we can't just yet. So I don't feel uncomfortable being alone with you. As a matter of fact you should be the one feeling uncomfortable with me cause boy do I have to restrain myself around you." He looked down at Nitori with serious eyes.

Nitori smiled and freed his hands from Rins grip. "Okay." He wrapped his arms around Rins neck and brought him down for a nice long kiss.

"Can I sleep with you senpai?"

Rin laughed and held the smaller boy closer to his chest. "Of course. I was just about to ask the same thing."

Rin got up and switched off the lights to the small bedroom. He bent down and got on his bed in one swift movement. Nitori scooted to the wall to allow him more space.

"Nitori come closer to me."

Nitori wiggled around until he was closer to the daunting maroon eyes that so often haunted his dreams.

Under the moonlight Nitori looked like something from a fairy tail. His blue eyes were glowing against his pale skin and his grey hair was spread across the pillow like a doll on display. Rin didn't know that someone could be so beautiful, but Nitori was known for surprising people.
Nitori smiled at Rin through his bangs. It was about time for him to get a haircut, but he enjoyed the feel of his bangs across his forehead. He also felt closer to Rin like this. Since he failed so miserably at snapping his goggles in place like Rin. He figured this would be the second best option. Rins hair had grown so long that he was now able to hold it in a ponytail, and oh how Nitori loved those ponytails. He had always wanted to run his fingers through that feisty red hair. Unintentionally he started doing just that, but instead of pulling away Rin scooted closer to the outstretched hands. Nitori smiled and began to massage the larger boys scalp with his fingertips.

Rin felt himself falling. Not only to sleep, but in love. He never knew how much sentiment he could get from small actions like these. He grabbed Nitori and kissed the top of the boys head.

"Good night Ai."

Nitori giggled and hugged Rin back.

"Goodnight senpai."
