Hey all, thanks for the follows! Do leave some comments too! Hope you like this chapter :D
On the way to Haru's training, Rin was telling Makoto about his training and how University was. Makoto didn't speak too much but nodded and smiled at Rin's story. With every nod and smile, a lot of effort went in it. He was a little light headed and took a sip of water to hide any discomfort. He was afraid he may not be able to meet Rin again and didn't want to ruin the day. Rin didn't think anything was off, as that was usually Makoto.
At the pool Makoto found Haru just finishing a lap.
Makoto held his hand out and said "Haru-chan"
Haru went wide eyed, took Makoto's hand and said "I told you not to call me that"
"Hai, Hai!" Makoto laughed.
"What are you doing here?" Haru asked, though he was happy and thankful. Happy because he got to see Makoto and thankful because he was okay. At least he looked okay? Haru started staring at Makoto.
Feeling his gaze, Makoto turned and handed a towel to Haru. "I tried reaching out to you"
"Gomen, I haven't seen my phone in awhile."
Makoto was thankful Haru got distracted.
"Nanase, take a short break" Coach yelled out.
"Hai"
Haru was walking to his locker with Makoto beside him. Makoto asked how his training was going and was happy to see that Haru was alright. Haru noticed that Makoto screwed his eyes shut longer when he smiled and that his face was flushed. Before he could ask if he was alright, Rin surprised him!
"Rin!" Haru went wide eyed and a smile grew on his face.
"Haru, not slacking off are you?" Rin pounced on Haru.
"As if" Haru retorted and they both hugged each other.
"Sashiburi Haru"
"Hai"
