It was one of those rare occasions where Makoto managed to persuade Haru to leave the pool early to go on a date, but of course none of the others knew that. Now Nagisa and Rei were all alone since Gou had gone home to perfect the new training regimen. Nagisa was sitting on the edge of the pool dipping his toes in while Rei was still in the pool practicing his butterfly stroke. The blonde haired boy was completely under the spell of the blue haired swimmer. Rei was definitely improving on his swimming and Nagisa was most certainly proud of Rei for shaving more and more off of his original time. But Nagisa was more of less aware that his feeling of pride were more than that, feelings of deep admiration- no something more. Nagisa didn't think of Rei as a nerd because he certainly didn't look like one. The blonde haired boy's steady heartbeat picked up as he watched water droplets flow down his defined muscles and the setting sun shined perfectly on his lightly tanned skin. Nagisa was in love.
Rei finished his final lap to find the blonde haired boy looking down at him with his signature grin. Rei's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but smile too. They both hit the showers and walked to the train station. As they rode the train Rei and Nagisa stole tiny glances at eachother. Even as they walked the rest of the way Nagisa's magenta eyes fell upon the blue haired boy's deep violet eyes behind the red rims of his glasses. Then came the fork in the road, where both boys had to part ways. Nagisa looked at Rei and said good bye, god he was so beautiful oh how he wished he could ask Rei out without ruining there friendship. Suddenly Nagisa had a plan, but he was reluctant to follow through, he needed advice from his sisters.
~Time Skip~
" Sakura, Hana, Hinata! I need to talk to you in my room!" As soon as they entered the small bedroom Nagisa blurted out " How do I ask someone out without being a total idiot?!"
" Wait, does our little brother have a crush?!" Hinata smirked. Nagisa bit his bottom lip.
" Listen, I really like him and- he was cut off by his sister.
" Him?!" exclaimed Hana. The blonde haired boy could feel his face turning red as all of his sisters gaped at him. Suddenly a wide grim spread across Sakura's face.
" Please tell me you have a crush on Ryuugazaki-kun!" Sakura pleaded. Nagisa buried his face in his hands as his sisters giggled.
" H-How d-did you know?" he stuttered. The three sisters grinned and explained what happened before Nagisa got home.
~45 Minutes Earlier~
As soon as he and Nagisa parted ways Rei's head was immediately flooded with images of the blonde haired boy's face and thoughts of how he desperately wanted to kiss Nagisa's soft looking lips. A longing groan slipped from his mouth, he couldn't take not hearing Nagisa's sweet voice anymore. Rei whipped out his cellphone and dialed a familiar number.
" Hello?" said a voice. This wasn't Nagisa's voice, this one was as sweet as Nagisa's but it was more feminine.
" Um hi, is Nagisa-kun there?" asked Rei, masking his impatience.
" Ah no this is Nagisa's sister, Hana, I can leave a message if you want Mr..."
" Oh! Ryuugazaki, Ryuugazaki Rei," Rei heard voices slowly getting closer to the phone, most likely Nagisa's other two sisters.
" Oh! Rei-chan it's you!" exclaimed Hana. " I'll make sure to tell him that you called," she said.
" Okay thank you Hazuki-san" said Rei.
" Oh, by the way Rei-chan, the crush you have on my brother is soooo obvious," teased Hana. Rei was stunned, how did they know?, He never told anyone, was it really that obvious?!
" H-How d-did you k-know?! Was I really t-that o-obvious?!" Rei stuttered. A small gasp escaped Hana's lips and whispered to her sisters.
" I was just teasing," Hana giggled.
" Oh..." Rei immediately hung up the phone, worrying out of his mind.
~45 Minutes Later~
Nagisa was stunned, and yet filled with joy. Nagisa suddenly ran out of hid house, in the direction of Rei's. Rei, still worrying about the conversation with Nagisa's sisters, heard a knock on the door. When he opened it, Nagisa tackled him with a kiss. Obviously not knowing what just happened, Rei pulled back. As soon as realization dawned on him he tentatively pressed his lips to Nagisa's own. Both boys wrapped their arms around eachother , pulling eachother close. As Rei and Nagisa kissed they both reminded themselves to thank Sakura, Hana, and Hinata
~The End~
