Me and Mitsuru headed for the pool. Hopefully no would be there, this was the chance to tell him how much he meant to me. Wow I'm so excited and nervous. On and off Mitsuru would be really nice, saying things like "Do you need help?" or "Want me to take you there?" but then one of the lunar members would say "Oh I'm heading that way." So then Mitsuru didn't see that there was a reason to take me. Oi! People…

But right now there is an awkward silence. I had my swim bag on my shoulder, a light sweater to cover the top portion of my swimsuit and a pair of pj bottoms. I "happen" to notice that Mitsuru was wearing jet black shorts, a white long sleeve shirt and black shoes. Hmm I could just look at him all day.

"What the hell are you looking at?" He interrupted my thoughts. I snapped back into reality and said,

"Nothing" and looked away. When we made it to the pool he opened the door for me. When I entered he started to walk away.

"Wait where are you doing?" I called for him.

"Dropping you off. What? You wanted me to stay?" I looked at him with the saddest puppy dog look in the world. He gave a huge sigh and said "ok". I got all excited and grabbed his arm and lead him in. The place was empty. The only person inside was Gale. She was not an old woman but not that young either. She was sitting there reading some magazine. She looked up when she heard me come in.

"Mahiru..Darling! I've missed you! Why haven't you come to see me?" she said with a pout

"Sorry Gale. I've been really busy. Hey is there anyone in there?"

"Nope, it's all yours. But, uh, I gotta ask you who is the fine looking man you got here? Are you uh, on a date?" How did I know she was gonna ask that. OOO I could kill her. But I answered,

"Mitsuru, no, and Thanks Gale!" And with that I walked to the door leading to the inside pool.

"I won't let anyone else in honey!" I heard her yell. Once we were in I closed the door and then Mitsuru looked at me.

"Wow how embarrassing for you. Hey this is a pretty nice pool. It's big. And there is a balcony. That's a plus." I just rolled my eyes and walked over to one of the benches and put my bag down.

"Thanks for coming and the commercial broadcast." I giggled. I took off my sweater and put that down and then I got my goggles. I didn't really wanna use my cap. I looked over to Mitsuru who happened to be a lot closer to me then I thought. He took my goggles from me and examined them. I snatched them back.

"You sure that you don't want to come in?" I walked past him and took my pants off by the foot of the pool. I placed one foot in and it felt like home.

"Hurry up and don't drown." He said as I put my goggles on.

"Don't worry if you fall in I'll save ya." I can't believe I just said that then I quickly went under. When should I tell him? I just swam and swam and swam and swam so more. I came up and at the shallow end of the pool was Mitsuru coming in! Oh my god what is he doing? Wow he looks really good with out a shirt. Jesus FOCUS!

"Uh What are you doing?" You can't swim." I yelled from the opposite side of the pool.

"Well it's not deep on this side." You could hear the fear in his voice.

"Come over here just in case I slip or some thing." I giggled to myself. So I swam over to him.

"Wanna learn?" I suggested.

"Are you kidding? I'm just relaxing and enjoying the cool water."

"Your standing in one spot."

"SO!…." he grumbled to himself.

"Fine then walk over there with me and if you go under then I'll help you. OK?" It took him awhile but he agreed to it. I started to walk toward the deep end but I stopped because he grabbed my hand. It was like he was holding on for dear life. Hmm the way it feels is really nice. I think that this is the right time.

"Umm Mitsuru?" the water was almost above our wastes.

"Hmm" he answered.

"There is something I have to tell you."

"What is it?" his grip got tighter when I stopped. But I never faced him.

"What happened that night, I never got to say thank you. But there was something that I wanted to tell you that mourning when I was in your room, but I got to scared. Mitsuru I think I'm falling in love with you. No.. I've fallen in love with you." Silence. Just plain Silence and then,

"Finally." I turned around to see a smiling Mitsuru. I looked at him with a questioning look.

"I'm in love with you Mahiru. I showed you that the night I took you to my room and when I said all those things to you." Duh! I'm so stupid! Then I stared at him and he moved closer to me but of course something happens. He slips. Falls on top of me and we go under.

Oh no Mitsuru! Wait, where is he? I look to see Mitsuru swimming towards the deep end! I follow him and surface when he did.

"I didn't know you could swim." He looked at me and then he smiled at me. He tricked me that bastard. Ops I take that back!

"Oh, I forgot to tell you." He pointed down and went under. This was suppose to be romantic and I get surprising and weird things instead. I followed him all the way to the bottom. He reached out his hand to me. I took it and he pulled me close and hugged me. Then he kissed my lips ever so softly. It was my first kiss with Mitsuru. We broke apart to go get air. When we got a breath, I looked over to him and giggled.

"Lets head home." He said as he kissed my fore head.

"We'll take a shower and get into dry clothes and talk." He said when he was getting out. I got my towel and dried and then got my clothes on again. Mitsuru dried and put his stuff back on. Then we walked out hand in hand. I was so happy.

"I'll be out in a minute, I have to sign out." I said and he nodded.

Gale had a huge grin on her face. I just looked at her and rolled my eyes. When I was writing she asked,

"So was it a date?" she said with a smirk. I put the pen down and put my bag on my shoulder then I looked at her with a smile.

"Yea I think so."
