The morning commute back to Iwatobi was nowhere near peaceful for Haruka. He had to put up with Kisumi chatting away with Makoto and purposefully keeping the green eyed boy's attention away from him. Haruka gazed out of the window, trying to tune out their conversation. It was harder then he thought. Makoto's laugh would tune him back in. He wanted to be the only one that could put a smile on Makoto's face.

As if sensing Haruka's annoyance, Makoto turned away from Kisumi and looked at the raven-haired young man. "Haru, are you okay?"

"Yeah," was the only response Haruka gave in return while he kept his attention out the window.

"My parents said you could come over and eat dinner with us. I'm sure Ran and Ren would be happy to have you there."

"That'd be nice."

"Nagisa also said he wanted us to go out with him and Rei tomorrow."

"Does it involve water?"

Makoto chuckled a little. "Yes."

"Hey Makoto, you didn't forget about our plans with Hayato, Ren and Ran did you?" Kisumi asked with a sad puppy face. Haruka wished he could kick him off the train.

Makoto looked back at Kisumi and smiled. "Of course not. I'm going to hang out with Haru and the others afterwards." Leave it to Makoto to always be considerate of others. That was a quality Haruka loved and hated. It showed that Makoto was willing to sacrifice his own time to be with others which he liked, but it also kept Makoto away from him, which he disliked.

The rest of the train ride home was mainly Kisumi and Makoto chatting away about different professors, classes, Kisumi wondering if he should join a fraternity and practically begging Makoto to join one with him. Haruka didn't know how he had the self-control to remain calm and collected, but inside he was screaming and forbidding Makoto from joining one of those wild college boy groups.

"I'm home!" Makoto yelled as Mrs. Tachibana opened the door for him and Haruka. As soon as Makoto's voice filled the house, Ran and Ren ran as fast as they could, passed their mother and embraced their older brother with a hug each.

"You're finally back!" Ran cheered.

"I thought you'd never come home!" Ren said as he squeezed Makoto tighter.

"Now, now, you two. Let Makoto and Haruka go rest for a while. We'll be able to catch up during dinner once your father is home from work," Mr. Tachibana said with a warm smile. Haruka loved the Tachibana family as if it were his own. They always made him feel welcomed.

"Okay…" the twins replied in unison as they reluctantly let go of Makoto and walked off. Makoto turned back to look at Haruka with his signature warm smile.

"Let's go to my room Haru." Haruka nodded in response. The two made their way up the stairs and into Makoto's room. For the first time, Haruka felt a bit nervous being alone with Makoto in his room. After Nagisa bragged to Haruka on how amazing it felt to be with Rei intimately, he couldn't get the image of himself with Makoto doing the same thing.

Makoto walked over to his bed and placed his bag on the floor. He looked over at Haruka. "You can put your bag down here for now. Are you tired?"

"No…I'm fine."

"Ah okay. I think I'm going to take a little nap before dinner. You can draw or read a book if you want. I'm sorry Haru, I would rather do something with you, but after that long train ride I feel exhausted."

"It's okay. Kisumi kept you talking for the whole trip. Just go to sleep. I'll wake you up when dinner's ready."

"Thanks Haru."

Makoto went to lie down on his bed and closed his eyes. Haruka looked at him for a moment before he walked over to one of Makoto's shelves and picked up a notebook. He took a pencil out of Makoto's bag and sat on the bed next to Makoto, wondering what he would sketch. Makoto moved a little in his sleep until he was sleeping on his back, a nice view that Haruka couldn't help but stare at. He slowly started to sketch the sleeping figure, making sure to get every detail of Makoto's face and body structure.

Haruka didn't realize how much attention he was putting on Makoto's lips until he saw that he kept darkening Makoto's lips in the sketch. He looked over at his sleeping friend and smiled at Makoto's handsome face.

"H-Haru…" Makoto said in his sleep. Haruka's eyes went wide with surprise. Why was he saying his name? "Your body…It's…"

It's?! What about my body?! What are you dreaming about Makoto?!

"Don't do that Haru…I know it feels good, but…!"

Haruka stared at Makoto anxiously waiting for him to continue. His heart was racing within his chest and a crimson blush had made its way onto his face. Was Makoto having a certain type of dream with Haruka in it? If so, that meant he felt the same way Haruka felt, right? Haruka continued to wait for Makoto to say something, anything else, but to his misfortune, Makoto fell back into a deep slumber and stopped talking.

All Haruka wanted to do was lean in and kiss Makoto. There was nothing in his way from doing it and Makoto would never know. If Makoto was dreaming of Haruka, then he wouldn't mind if Haruka let part of his dream come true? Slowly, Haruka began to move closer to Makoto. His lips were inching their way onto Makoto's but before he could finish, Makoto started to wake up. Quickly, Haruka moved away with a blush on his face. Makoto yawned and rubbed his eyes.

"Haru, is dinner ready?"

"No…Not yet," Haruka replied, trying his best to sound calm.

"Oh okay. Ah! Haru! I dreamt about you!"

Haruka froze up. Was Makoto actually going to tell him about it? What was Haruka going to do in response? Makoto lifted himself up, oblivious to Haruka's inner turmoil and continued. "I dreamt that you were swimming in the aquarium with the dolphins! You kept telling me it felt good to be in the water, but I kept trying to get you out. Your body also got really wrinkly after being in the water for too long, but you still didn't listen! Promise me you won't do that when we go to the aquarium with Nagisa and Rei, Haru!"

Haruka didn't respond and remained silent. He was completely taken aback by the revelation of what Makoto was really dreaming about. He felt stupid for thinking Makoto had an interest in him and deep down it hurt. On the other hand, he felt like hurting Makoto for talking in his sleep. Makoto noticed the dark aura appearing around Haruka and winced a little.

"Umm, Haru…Did I say something wrong?"

You have no idea.
