The cafeteria on campus was enormous compared to the one Haruka had experienced in high school. He was still upset that they didn't serve mackerel, seriously they should put it on the menu, but he was still enjoying his time with Makoto. It was a little weird having Makoto introduce him to some of the people he knew on campus. But it wasn't that much of a surprise that Makoto knew a lot of people and every few seconds someone would say hi or try to start up a conversation with him. Makoto was a very likable person after-all.
By the time they got some food and made their way to an empty table near one of the corners of the room, Haruka let out a sigh he didn't realize he was holding back. Makoto noticed and smiled. "Sorry Haru. That always happens when I come here."
"It's okay. People like you. I can't be mad about that," Haruka replied as he took a sip of his soda.
"Sometimes I wonder why they like me. I find it a little odd."
"What do you mean a little odd? You're a nice person." Haruka had the urge to knock some sense into Makoto. How could he not see what an amazing guy he was? It wasn't just his sexy outer appearance, but his gentle and loving personality. Makoto only smiled at Haru before he started to eat the food in front of him. Haruka didn't talk much after that but Makoto knew he was listening to him ramble about classes, how his parents and siblings were doing, how Nagisa and Rei were doing, and so on.
It wasn't until they finished eating and started to walk back to Makoto's dorm when Haruka ask what he thought about Rei and Nagisa dating. Makoto took a moment to think before he actually answered. "I'm really happy for them. Nagisa sounded really happy when he told me on the phone. I think they make a cute couple."
"Hm," was all Haruka could say in response.
"What about you Haru-chan? What do you think about them?"
"Interesting."
"Interesting?"
"Yes, interesting."
Makoto smiled at Haruka's vague response but understood the underlying meaning behind it. Haruka was happy for his friends, but at the same time a bit envious because that's what he wanted for him and Makoto. Nagisa whined and told Haruka that he had to confess in order for something to happen, but Haruka couldn't find it in himself to do it.
The two made it back to Makoto's dorm and went inside. Kisumi was sitting on his bed and using his laptop. He looked up and smiled. "How was dinner?"
"It was fine. Were you able to finish that project?" Makoto asked as he closed the door behind him.
"We just need to put some final touches, but that can wait until after break. We'll have it submitted in time so there's nothing to stress over."
"That's good. Umm, Haru, do you want to sleep in my bed while I sleep in your sleeping bag?"
"I didn't bring one."
"EH?! Then what did you bring in that big bag?!"
"Clothes and a toothbrush."
"Haru!" Makoto couldn't help but whine. What he didn't know was that Haru did it on purpose. He thought it would give him the chance to sleep in the same bed. Kisumi closed his laptop and smiled at the two.
"Haruka can sleep in my bed. We can share yours Makoto."
"Share my bed?"
I'm not going to let that happen. Haruka thought. "I'll share a bed with Makoto."
"Eh? But Haru, won't you be uncomfortable?"
"No, it'll be okay."
"O-Okay, if it's alright with you."
"Well that's disappointing. I was hoping I could share a bed with Mako-chan," Kisumi said as he put his laptop on his desk.
"I don't see why you'd want to Kisumi-san. I take up a lot of space," Makoto replied nervously. This time Haruka and Kisumi both wanted to knock some sense into Makoto for not understanding the hidden meaning. But they supposed that was one of the things they liked about Makoto.
"I'll take you to the bathroom Haru-chan so we can get ready for bed."
"I'll go with you. I'm about to go to bed too," Kisumi replied. The three grabbed their toothbrushes and toothpastes and headed towards the community bathroom in the hall. Luckily, no one else was taking a shower or using the bathroom so the guys had peace and quiet while they brushed their teeth.
Once they got back to the dorm and turned off the lights, Kisumi went to lie on his bed and Haru went to lie on Makoto's. It took Makoto a while to figure out how not to take too much space on the twin sized bed, but had to press his back against Haru's while they were lying down. Haru could feel Makoto's tense body and decided to give Makoto a soft kick to let him know that everything was okay. Eventually Makoto started to relax, said his good-nights, and drifted off to sleep. Sleeping in the same bed with Makoto was different then sharing a bed with Rin. With Makoto, Haru felt nervous but at the same time happy. He wished Makoto would turn around and wrap his strong arms around him.
Haru thought about doing it himself, but quickly changed his mind. It would be too soon to do something out of the ordinary. Haru looked at the other side of the room where Kisumi was sleeping with his back turned to Haru. Of all people, Makoto just had to be roommates with the pink haired boy Haru couldn't stand. If he could, he'd kick Kisumi out, kiss a surprised Makoto, and live happily ever after. If only things were that simple.
Closing his eyes, Haru began to day dream of a future with Makoto as his lover. They would still act the same way towards each other. The only thing that would change would be kissing and doing other stuff couples do. Haru wondered if Makoto would be able to find it in him to do certain things with Haru without being shy or paranoid that he was hurting Haru. But Makoto wouldn't be Makoto if he wasn't like that.
Drifting off into dream land, Haru dreamt of swimming with Makoto at his side, eating mackerel and cuddling in a bed after a long day.
