This was a random story I had in my mind so I thought I might try out and see how it goes. If it gets some views or reviews, I might continue it but for now, let's see how things go. I don't own the characters.
Haru woke to the crazy brightness of the room. He squinted his eyes as he looked around, wondering where was he. As he tried to get up, he felt a pounding headache forming in the back of his head as he lay back down with defeat. Geez, what happened to him? He was just doing something earlier… wait a second… what was he doing earlier again? That's weird…
"Haru!" someone shouted as they slammed into him. Haru turned to see a pair of green eyes staring at him intently before he was pulled into a hug. "Come on, Mako-chan. You can't have Haru-chan all to yourself!" Nagisa laughed from the corner while Rei held onto a fruit basket. Makoto smiled as he released Haru, who stared at his friends as he thought what had happened.
"Sup, Haru? Man you gave us a bit of a scare there," a voice came as a guy stepped from behind the curtains. He had a really apologetic look on his face as he walked over to Haru and bowed low. "I am so sorry man! I didn't mean to make you hurt yourself so bad! I was just kidding around until you slipped and fell. Man, I thought you died with all the blood pooling around!" he wailed. Wait, who was this guy again?
"Ah, Nanase Haruka-kun. You're awake now," the nurse smiled as she watched the guys bawling over the blue-eyed boy. Haru touched his head, feeling it heavily bandaged as he looked around. He realized he was in the hospital and was dressed in scrubs. "Makoto… who is this guy?" he asked as they stared.
"Uh wait. Don't tell me you can't remember your own roommate?" the guy how had apologized blurted as Haru scowled. "You would be a very notable person to remember so no, I don't," he said as Makoto grabbed his shoulders. "Haru, what day is it now?" he asked as Haru scowled.
"Don't get to me, Makoto. We're just about to start our first year at uni," he said as the boys gaped. Haru wondered why they were so shocked about what he said. He was pretty sure that the day before was spent getting prepped for school. "Haru… you're already in university for nearly a year now," Makoto said as Haru's eyes went wide.
As he stared out of the hospital window, he realized that he was no longer in the tiny seaside town of Iwatobi and he touched his head, wondering how in the world he managed to get into this mess. How could he not remember things. And also… there was something he felt was missing from his heart.
"So let me get this straight. You knocked your head on the floor and you've lost your memories? Wow, you're head is pretty soft Haru," the guy muttered as the other three boys glared at him. Hang on, Haru thought. He knew who Rei was but he didn't recall where… "Hey Rei. Where did I meet you again?' he asked as the bespectacled guy stared.
"Haruka-senpai. We met at the swim club. Don't tell me you forgot how ugly my butterfly was. I was flapping in the water and making myself look like a fool," Rei said as Haru quirked his eyebrow. "I do recall taking part in the swim club back in middle school but I thought our school didn't have a swim club," he muttered as Nagisa eyes went wide. "Haru-chan! Don't tell me you forgot all about how we went for a relay together! We met Rin-chan again, remember? He was in Samezuka!" he chirped.
Haru rubbed his hand on his head, wondering what in the world was going on. He couldn't remember what had happened and now they were saying that he was in the swim club. "Hold on. You say I can swim? I don't recall being able to do so…" he said as Makoto grabbed his shoulder. "Sit tight. I'll get the nurse," he said as he ran off.
Haru lay against the pillows, wondering what happened. He could swim… but he did recall taking swimming lessons with Makoto when they were kids but he didn't recall being good in them. And he remembered the middle school swim club… why wasn't he able to remember swimming?
….
"Ah, Haruka-kun is having a slight memory problem," the doctor said as the boys clustered around him. "He doesn't have the time to have this problem, doc! He has a competition in two weeks! How is he suppose to train when he can't even remember how to swim?" the guy from earlier blurter. Haru sighed, thinking how long winded it was to call him that.
"What's your name?" he asked as the guy frowned a little. "Dai. Been your roommate for most of the year now," he said as the doctor continued to talk. "Judging from what he said, he could be suffering memory lose form certain aspects of his life, which is swimming in his case. Odd, wonder why this happened," the doctor muttered to himself. Man, you're a doctor so shouldn't you know? Haru thought to himself.
"If you are desperate to bring his memory back, I suggest you take him to places where he would most likely be able to recall things. But let me warn you, this normally lasts for around a week but if you try to force it on him, he may end up not remembering altogether," the doctor said as he moved away to check on other patients.
Haru thought things couldn't get any worse. "Haru, the school holidays start tomorrow so I thought we could head back to Iwatobi and see if it could help jog your memory a bit," Makoto said as Haru stared. He didn't even know what day it was but judging from what was going on outside, it looked like it was summer since he heard some crickets sounding even thought it was in the city.
The others left after a while but Makoto stayed to keep Haru company. As Makoto talked about how his course was going, Haru let the conversation fly over his head as he stared out of the window. Something was missing in his heart but what was it? He couldn't grasp what he was missing.
"Makoto. I feel like I'm missing something…" he muttered as Makoto looked at him. "Relax for now Haru. When you get discharged, we'll go home and show you all the sights that you have never seen before," he said and that moment Haru felt a pang in his heart. A sight he had never seen before… where had he heard it… somehow it was very nostalgic… "Fine," he muttered as his best friend smiled.
