Haru has to distract Sousuke and with the help of Rin's suggestion Haru manages to do just that.


"He's not listening," Haruka spoke harshly down the phone as his head turned to the perfectly trimmed bush, the barely visible red sticks of hair shaking a little in distress.

"Try harder." Rin's voice speaking fond harshness in his ear.

"What am I supposed to do?"

"Something drastic."

"Like what?" Haruka rose a brow in amusement as Rin's head popped up from his hiding place.

"I don't know, um." Rin turned to his right to find a lovey dovey couple making out then turned to his left to see a husband gently pecking his wife on the cheek. Without even bothering to think it through Rin spoke without hesitation. "Kiss him."

"Kiss him?"

"Kiss him."

Haruka disconnected the call biting the inside of his cheek as he turned to the direction of his target, standing in front of a shop window was the broad back of Sousuke Yamazaki, he was hunched slightly examining the trainers that were on display. The ravenette hitched a breath in readiness before he confidently stalked over to Sousuke, prodding his shoulder to once again gain his attention.

"What Nanase?" Sousuke grumbled impatiently having thought their interaction had ceased moments ago after their brief chat. Haru didn't flicker in hesitation before he grasped the man's faces and dragged him down, closing his eyes before he let his lips connect with Sousuke's. Sousuke was too gobsmacked to pull away and did nothing when he felt Haruka's slowly twisted them around. Haru quickly let a hand fall from Sousuke's jaw and motioned for Rin and the others to hurry across as he let his tongue poke out and run tastily over the teal eyed mans bottom lip. Haru sensed Sousuke twitch a little at his tongue and felt him unconsciously opened his mouth a little.

"Holy shit. He's actually kissing him." Rin was staring in disbelief, astounded that Haru had even considered his rather rushed suggestion.

"Come on." Momo pulled at Rin's arm causing the red head to notice Nitori and Kou already crossing the plaza and shook himself from his stunned state. Haruka finally opened his eyes seeing the glimpse of red skid around the corner before his eyes found Sousuke watching him in bewilderment. The ravenette swiftly pulled away, pushing the teal eyed male and waited awkwardly for Sousuke to recover.

"What was that?" Sousuke spoke his voice cracking a little, the teal eyed male watched the ravenette as he bit his lip before answering.

"You weren't paying attention to me."

"So you kiss me to get it?!"

"Yes." Haruka folded his arms in defiance furrowing his brow at Sousuke who was looking at him in confusion.

"Well, you've got my attention now." Sousuke shrugged one shoulder, his mind focused on the plump lips in front of him. "What do you want?"

Sousuke could tell by the way Haru's eyes widened a little and his mouth opened slightly that the ravenette really had no idea what he wanted. Sousuke tilted his head a little a rather smug smirk making its way to his lips as Haruka mentally muddled an excuse in his mind.

"I..er...I wanted to know if you wanted to have lunch with me?"

"Lunch?" Sousuke repeated. "With you?"

"Yes," Haru nodded attempting to keep his face neutral and not face palm himself in disbelief at his horrifying lying skills.

"I know you just made that up but just for the sake of things, why not." Sousuke's smirk grew wider at Haru's heated cheeks and almost chuckled when the ravenette pinched his brow. "Food court?"

Haruka nodded silently and shamefully followed the butterfly swimmer to the court where the two bought similar sushi and sat opposite one another. A strange silence filled the void between them that seemed to cut the loud and various voices and screams of the other shoppers. Sousuke chewed on his rice eyeing Haru as his timidly bit into his seaweed and continuously flittered his eyes around the court not daring to meet Sousuke's gaze.

"So what was before all about?" Sousuke broke the silence his brow rising as Haruka sighed heavily and finally looked the man in the eye.

"I'd rather not talk about it."

"I mean the lying was one thing but that kiss." Sousuke let out a low whistle attempting to embarrass the free style swimmer.

"It can't have been that bad." Haru countered the little quip of a smug smile reached the corner of his mouth. "You didn't pull away."

"True." Sousuke all but offered. In all fairness, Haruka was a pretty decent kisser, after taking away from the initial shock of a surprise kiss from the last person you'd expect it from Sousuke enjoyed Haru's lips on his. They had been soft but determined, plump and the ravenettes tongue had been almost too much for his restraint.

"Which part is true?" Haruka rose a brow in surprise, a slight panic to his features as Sousuke rose from his spot readying to head out and not answer his question.

"Which part do you want it to be?" Sousuke glanced behind and replied with the question, the question they both knew the answer to. Haruka was quick to follow him knowing Rin would kill him if he let the butterfly swimmer walk off by himself, that and he found himself drawn to the large build of the male and the egotistic smirk that seemed to increase his heart beat ten fold when it was directed at him. To Haru's surprise Sousuke was stalking his way to the exit and the ravenette shadowed closely, giving the man his full attention as they stood opposite one another in the mid day sun. "So, I don't mind you following me but why are you stalking me?"

"I'm not stalking you." The ravenette replied defensively, turning his head away sharply. "Maybe I just wanted to be with you."

The way Haruka had worded his sentence had him shaking his head both a little in amusement when the colour drained from Sousuke's face with the teal eyed teen just staring at him stunned but also with eagerness to put the misunderstanding to rest.

"I mean hang out," The free style explained before continuing his explanation unknown to him that Sousuke wasn't listening. The butterfly swimmer was miles away, his brain on overload, his eyes plastered on those never ending pools of blue before letting his gaze fall to the moving mouth that suddenly seemed more tantalising than before.

"Nanase- Haru," Sousuke called out after he zoned back into the conversation, furrowing his brow as Haruka continued his incoherent chatter. Sousuke didn't register it when he moved but when he felt himself press his lips against the rambling ravenette's and the said boy silenced and for some unknown but not needed reason kissed him back did Sousuke move away.

"What was that?" Haruka covered his mouth his eyes wide and taken aback.

"You weren't paying attention to me." Sousuke mimicked Haru from earlier which caused a small smile to grace the ravenettes face.

"Well, you have it now."

Sousuke let a short gruff chuckle as he leant his forehead against Haru's and gently let the tip of his nose brush the ravenettes. Haruka closed his eyes for a moment revelling in Sousuke's warmth at it coursed through him before opening them and found teal watching him closely.

"What?" Haru inquired a little self-conscious to Sousuke intense gaze.

"Hmm it's just-" Sousuke hummed lightly cupping the ravenettes jaw, kissing the boy full on the mouth for a few moments before running a thumb over Haru's lips, his eyes lost in the glazed over irises of the ravenette. "-Maybe I just want to be with you too."
