Haru woke up to a mop of burgundy hair sweeping over a relaxed face, and a muscular arm pulling him in close. It would've been relaxing if Haru hadn't also noticed that his behind was rather sore...

Okay it was a lot sore! Rin had thoroughly fucked Haru through to next Tuesday. He'd lost count of the amount if times he'd climaxed, it was just so good!

Haru slowly peeled himself out of the other man's grasp and slipped out of bed. Haru hissed as he put pressure onto his foot. He was going to ache for years after last night.

Carefully, he moved his body to the bathroom and splashed his face with cold water. He didn't know what got into him last night. Once he started, he just couldn't stop, he was a moth draw to a flame. And what was worse- he wanted more! But Haru knew better than to stay around with this man. He couldn't do that to Makoto; it wouldn't be fair to greet his child one morning with the news that suddenly his father was gay and had a boyfriend, and to expect his son to just agree to it all. Hell, Haru wasn't sure he agreed with it all, it didn't make sense!

Don't get him wrong, Haru was not homophobic, he had just been sure that he wasn't gay. He'd experimented with guys during his schooling years, and that had done nothing for him, so naturally he'd assumed that he was into women and only women. And after that he'd met a girl and settled down, it was all like a fairy-tale. No complications.

But there were complications. And Haru had just stopped trying after that.

So why did it all change now? What was so different about Rin that meant all cards had left the table?

'Probably because he's hot.' Haru thought to himself as he stepped out of the bathroom, but even that thought weirded him out- he'd never found a guy hot before. Sure he'd noticed that Nagisa was cute, or realised Sousuke was good looking, but that wasn't attraction; that was just observation.

Haru sat down on Rin's bed with his head in his hands. What was he supposed to do now? Wait until this guy woke up and have an awkward conversation about weather? No, Haru suspected that he should leave. What was the point in him staying when he knew nothing would come out of this? Besides, He and Rin had already settled that this was a one night endeavour, not one night plus a morning full of awkward silences and small talk.

God, how he hated small talk.

Still Haru didn't want to be that guy. The one who got up and left without any notice.

So Haru dressed himself quickly and scribbled down a quick note leaving it on the pillow next to Rin's delicate sleeping face.

Glancing at the angel once more Haru turned and left.

He was doing the right thing. He was doing the right thing for his son- for Makoto. He couldn't be getting wrapped up in some booty-call relationship. And he sure as hell didn't have time for a real one; he had to give all his love and time to his son.

After a 40 minute walk, Haru finally arrived at his house. Using the keys to open the door he stepped into the quiet house and closed the door behind him. He turned and leant his head on the glass window, breathing shakily. He needed to compose himself for when Sousuke dropped Makoto back off after school.

Haru walked into the living room. Everything was as he had left it- messy and unorganised, things scattered everywhere. He picked up a soft orca plush that Haru had brought Makoto when he'd started having nightmares when he was 4. He remembers telling his son that it would stop the bad thought if he hugged it tight enough. A small smile appeared on Harus lips as he tucked the stuffed toy under his arm, using his free hands to clear up some of this week's mess.

Eventually the memories of that night, and of Rin, would fade from his memory. And Haru was sure that would happen…

Once his rear stopped aching.

Rin Matsuoka had had his fair share of one night stands. Usually when he could find a baby sitter for his sister when he was in his teenage years, and then whenever she went out when they were older, Rin would go out and hook up with anyone who took his fancy.

If he had to label himself, he'd say he was a slut.

But after getting a job to teach at his first school, Rin cut back on the sex and the carefree living and put all his effort into teaching. Which had worked out pretty well for him because with more money meant he could buy a larger apartment for Gou and himself. And when both siblings job offeres came in they both had enough funds for the moves.

It had been upsetting to leave his old school, but the job at Iwatobi Middle School had much better pay and some the best teaching supplies he'd seen. In other words he would've been a fool to turn down the offer.

In spite of the good factors that had come from his change in lifestyle, Rin still loved sex. He adored it! And he'd gone six months without it. Which was really hard (no pun intended) but strangely, he hadn't even felt the need to sleep with anyone for that time.

Until last night.

Rin didn't know why the blue eyed man had sparked the hunger inside of him; all he knew is that he wanted sex more in that moment than in his entire life. And couldn't believe his luck when he found out Haru was into men.

And Rin supposed he really shouldn't have been too upset at the fact he woke up to a note and not a fellow human. It had been his idea to have only one night.

Rin sat up and rubbed his eyes, clearing them so that he could read the small neat handwriting.

Rin,

Thank you for last night, it really was I regret leaving before you wake up, but it's probably best to forget this incident ever happened, for the sake of our personal and professional lives.

Good luck with your new job. I hope Iwatobi is a place you feel comfortable.

Haruka x

Rin tried to ignore the way his heart started to beat faster against his chest. The letter was brief and mature, but Rin couldn't help feeling like there was more to this note than just words of thanks. However, instead of delving into the hidden meaning behind certain words and that small kiss at the end, he put his feeling down to the hopeless romantic that lurked deep inside him.

Rolling over again Rin caught sight of the digital clock that resides on his bedside table.

7:05 am.

"Fuck!" Rin cried as he scrambled out of bed hurriedly. He was supposed to be meeting one of the teachers at Iwatobi today to show him round the school grounds and meet the classes he would be teaching. The head master had decided that he wouldn't start until the following Monday, but invited him to look around the school the Friday before hand to get a feel for the school and the students. That was today, that was in 55 minutes.

"Crap, crap, crap!" he mumbled as he grabbed his work clothes from his wardrobe, hurrying to the bathroom, and slamming the door, still cursing himself but not regretting a minuet of last night.

"Hi, Hi, Hello, my name is Rin. Rin Matsuoka, I'm the new English teacher." The red head wheezed, having run from the car into the building at his fastest pace. The time was 8:10. He wasn't on time, but he wasn't late either. He could blame the traffic if worst came to worst anyway.

The receptionist quickly typed something onto the keyboard, studying the monitor.

"Rin… Rin… ah! Yes, its here- The teachers' lounge is the first door down the corridor up ahead. There should be a man waiting to take you around. The P.E teacher- his name is Sousuke Yamazaki." She said, adjusting her thick glasses as she pulled a few loose strands of brown hair behind her ear.

"Thank you very much." Rin said, giving the receptionist a sly wink as she buzzed him into the building, a red blush spreading across her face.

Rin observed the décor of the school. The walls were a light cream colour with at least 3 blue or red decorated boards displaying the children's work. Pausing momentarily at a blue board with a red rim, he examined the small section of English work on the board. Most of it was roughly right, as expected of the age range, but he couldn't help but be drawn to a particular paragraph that was full of spelling errors and minor blunders. He looked at the name at the top of the page- 'Makoto Tachibana'. Rin smiled and hoped that he had that kid in his class. He really loved to help the children, especially the ones who struggled.

"Oi." Rin heard a deep voice call out to him, dragging him back into reality. "Are you Rin?"

Rin swallowed down the sarcastic comment that he wanted to throw the tall man's way, instead opting for a "Yes, I am. Sousuke, I'd assume."

In front of him, the man with teal eyes and black hair who was sporting a white and blue tracksuit nodded at him. "You're late." He stated bluntly.

"Yeah sorry, the traffic was really bad today." He grinned sheepishly as he brought his hand up to rub the back of his head- a habit from when he was younger that he had failed to ever break.

He caught the taller man's eyes flickering down to his neck and then straight back up to bore into his soul once again. "Sure," He uttered with a disbelieving tone. "I'm supposed to show you around today and introduce you to your students. You'll be teaching classes 6D and 6E, 7A, 8B and 8C to start off with. They don't all have languages on the same day, so you will have a variety of free periods in which to get marking done and prepare lessons or eat lunch. Obviously you're allowed in the staff room at free periods, breaks and lunches, but it's up to you whether or not you eat in your classroom or with the other teachers. Now should we begin the tour?" Sousuke said, unfazed by the amount of information he had been able to rattle out in the short space of time.

"Lead the way." Rin said, slightly impressed by the man's ability to stay calm and collected for a long time. But Rin wasn't sure he liked Sousuke all that much yet. His personality either clashed with Rin's too much or didn't fit at all, and the red eyed male wasn't able to place a finger on which it was yet.

Sousuke gave him a basic walk through of how the floors of the building were set out and which classroom would be his for the time being. He also made sure that Rin knew where the toilets and medical rooms were in case of any emergencies with the children.

"You'll only get chance to meet one class today. I apologise but Friday doesn't have much language lessons." The black haired man said in his dull tone.

"That's fine by me, it's always nicer to have an introductory lesson with new classes first. Well that what I think anyway…" Rin trailed off as Sousuke stopped outside class M14.

"Inside is class 8B. I think they're currently learning about colours? I'm not sure, my friend's son goes here and I looked after him last night and he wanted to revise the colours, so I assumed… well you see when we go inside anyway." Sousuke rapped lightly on the door, hearing a soft voice from inside call out 'Come in.'

The two men entered the class to see a room full of eager students, some writing in their workbooks and others talking in short sentences to each other. In English of course.

A woman with brown hair and hazel eyes walked over to the two men. "Good morning," She started cheerily. "You must be the new English teacher, they told me you were coming in to observe today. My name is Miho Amakata; it's nice to meet you." She smiled warmly and extended her hand out to Rin.

"Rin Matsuoka. Pleasure to meet you," He said firmly gripping her hand and shaking lightly. "You've been teaching English as a substitute right?"

Miho made a sound of agreement. "Yes that's right. The old teacher has to leave due to some family issues so I stepped in. I'm not the best at English pronunciation but I am borderline fluent in the language so they chose me, but thank god they hired you! I can finally start to work more on my actual subject. Japanese lit." she chuckled.

"So what is the class currently learning about?" The Shark toothed man asked as his eyes flicked around the room, seeing Sousuke walk over to a boy with brown hair and striking green eyes who was attempting to speak in English to the boy who sat next to him, who had pink hair and purple eyes.

"Ah… well… at the moment we've been focusing on revising the basics. Things like colour and animals and even clothing! They're all bright in this class."

"I look forward to working with them." Rin smiled genuinely.

"Well, feel free to talk to some of the students if you wish too. Look through one of their books if you want to see what we've been covering this past week." Miho said with a wave as she weaved through tables to get to a child at the back with his hand up.

Rin flipped through a few books and complimented the students on their work so far. The few he spoke too seemed to take an instant liking to him, which Rin was happy about. He could only hope his classes where as good as this one.

"Matsuoka Sensei," The shorter man heard Sousuke call out to him. "I have to go and plan for my next lesson, but feel free to stay until the end of class. You should probably go to see the dean before leaving too."

"Thank you Yamazaki Sensei, I will do." Rin nodded at the P.E teacher, who smiled softly in return, leaving the classroom.

Maybe Yamazaki want all that bad.

Rin's eyes shot back over to the two boys he had witnessed talking before, due to the pink haired child raising his hand and waving it eagerly. After seeing that Miho was still busy helping another student with her work, Rin made his way over to the table and crouched down so that he was eye level with the pupils.

"What are you stuck on?" Rin asked with a smile.

The purple eyed boy gasped. "Wow! Are those your real teeth?" Rin rolled his eyes; he was used to getting this reaction from people. Even he didn't know why his teeth all grew sharp and pointy, but he had grown to embrace it, even though he still felt a little self-conscious when people brought it up.

"They are indeed." Rin said, flashing a grin to prove that the teeth were his real ones.

"They look really cool Matsuoka Sensei." The smaller brown haired boy said softly with a smile.

"Are you our new teacher?" the more excitable boy said happily.

"Yeah, I start on Monday, just meeting some classes today, which is pretty cool. Is every class as well behaved as this?"

The brunet laughed and shook his head. "None of us really like 8C that much. They're the bad class."

"Oh Joy." Rin said sarcastically, causing both the boys to laugh.

"My name is Kisumi! And this is Makoto!" Kisumi introduced them both. "It's nice to meet you Matsuoka Sensei." They both said at the same time.

'Makoto… as in Tachibana?' Rin thought back to the work he had seen before, glancing at the kids handwriting he could tell it was the same student.

"Nice to meet you guys too, I hope I'm able to help you with your English studies."

After helping the two with some of their questions, Rin decided that it was time for him to visit the headmaster quickly before going home to start planning out some lesson suitable for what the children had been learning.

On his way out of the classroom he heard a chorus of over half the class yelling "Bye Matsuoka Sensei!" He chuckled as he waved and left the room, feeling extremely confident about his new job.

He just couldn't wait to get started!
