I didn't have to talk to anyone at home about how archery club went today. Knowing Morgan and my mother they would have thrown the whole thing with Brady out of proportion, especially if I mentioned him playing violin for me. Thankfully the dinner table conversation revolved completely about how Morgan confessed her feelings to Owain this morning, Mother giving her advice, Father trying to argue the point, and Mother immediately disregarding them as clearly her methods worked on him. Father wasn't exactly thrilled about one of his daughters having her first boyfriend, but he was close friends with Owain's parents so he wasn't too worried about the issue. Morgan did praise me for helping her out, talking with Lucina and Kjelle then finally getting Owain to speak with her, I simply stated that it's just what any good sister would do. Mother was frankly surprised, she said she didn't expect me to "ever get involved with affairs of the heart." I'm not exactly sure what she meant, but it may have been a compliment, so I won't question it.

The next day went on as usual; Morgan and I met up with Nah as we walked up the dreaded steps of doom. Morgan went off to find Owain, and knowing anything I said to Morgan would reach Mother, I decided to talk now.

"Brady took the fake arrow for you?! That's so romantic!" Nah exclaimed as I told her about yesterday's events.

"Nah shush! I don't want anyone to overhear and get the wrong idea," I decided to omit the part about Brady playing the violin, not only because I promised him I wouldn't say anything, but clearly Nah wasn't too good at keeping her voice down today.

"What's wrong about it, you two like each other right?" Nah asked.

"N-No! Where'd you get that idea?" I said.

"Well you two were kind of friends since kids, he joined the archery club with you despite really being bad at archery, and he jumped in front of an arrow for you, the story seems to check out Noire."

"He's just a good friend Nah, wouldn't you have done the same?"

"Well I'd have to jump. How exactly did you two meet as kids anyway?"

"W-We just, me and him were both in the Nurse's office a lot, I guess, we spent a lot of time together in there over the years. But it's just that, we've always been only friends." I try to explain.

"Hm, is that right? Then why is your face all red?" Nah asks.

"Wha-Wha- It is not!" I hope it wasn't.

"Whatever you say missy, let's get to class. Have you told this to Morgan, surely she'll tell you the same thing I'm telling you," Nah says.

"Exactly, which is why I'm telling you and only you, if I told Morgan she'd tell our mom, and those two together will make the whole situation much bigger than it is," I explain.

"If you insist," Nah says as the two of us enter class.

Morgan eventually joins us as she continues raving to us about how great Owain is, the usual stuff, and the day goes on as usual. Lunch was uneventful as once again Morgan went off with Owain while Nah and I sat and talked. Nah brought Brady up once again but I continued to assure her there was nothing between us. Oddly enough I had not seen Brady once the entire day; I didn't spot Inigo or Severa around either. However Nah broke my concentration with a question.

"Noire I need a huge favor," Nah said.

"Sure, anything you need," I assured her.

"I have my first swim meet today, can you please go see it?" Nah requests.

"Sure Nah, why wouldn't I, are you nervous or something?" I ask.

"Me? Nervous? Of course not, why would I be nervous?"

"Well you're making your nervous face."

"I am not!" Nah lies.

"Want me to bring Morgan along?" I ask.

"That'd be nice," Nah says as she rests her head on the cafeteria table.

The day finishes up like usual, Morgan agrees to come with me to watch her meet before Kjelle drags her off to get ready.

"Do you think Nah will win today?" Morgan asks.

"Well it is her first meet, but if she is as fast as she is on land she'll be fine," I say.

"I wonder what she'll look like in the bathing suit, I bet she'll look adorable!" Morgan says practically out of nowhere.

"I, I hadn't thought of that," In hindsight Nah's small frame will probably make the most sense in one of those one piece swim suits compared some of the other people on the swim team, she probably will look pretty adorable I must admit.

Eventually the two of us arrive at the swim meet, and compared to the track meet the turnout isn't nearly as extravagant.

"What's this like, 12 people? Oh is that Nah's mom?" Morgan asks.

"Yea that's her, you can hear from here," I say.

"Oh and look Laurent is on the other side," Morgan said.

I looked a bit surprised, he was at the track meet as well, but he's not really a sports fan, or so I thought, I wonder why he is here. "Well I sure hope Nah doesn't notice him."

"Why is that?" Morgan asks.

"I don't know why, but seems to have something against him, like he creeps her out or something, I know he isn't exactly the most sociable guy in the weird, but I still don't see why she's so weirded out by him," I explain.

"He's okay; he used to come to book club before the robotics club started," Morgan says.

"Well we can discuss it later, it's starting," I say as the first swimmers begin.

The event was certainly must quicker than the track meet, I guess as the first meet of their season it's not really that big of an event. Morgan and I did get rather restless waiting for Nah to go. Eventually it was finally her turn.

"See Sis I told you she'd look adorable in that thing," I really couldn't argue with Morgan on that one. The one piece suited her rather nicely, whether she would like to admit it or not.

Nah dove in the water with grace and finesse, swimming back and forth at a speed almost matching her running speed, but still only managed to get second for her round. Morgan and I begrudgingly stayed till the end, but only to talk with Nah afterwards. Once the event concluded all of our school's swimmers were drying off and mingling with some of the crowd, Lucina and Yarne were speaking with Kjelle, and Morgan and I made our ways toward Nah.

"Nah you look even cuter in your suit up close!" Morgan wasted no time.

"Ignoring that, how was my swimming?" Nah asked.

"You did real good Nah, I didn't know you could move like that," I say.

"Well when you're me-" Nah was quickly cut off by hearing someone say "Nah!"

The three of us turned and spotted none other than Laurent coming this way. "Nah, excellent showing out there, mind if I ask you-"

"Eeep!" Nah uttered behind quickly getting behind Morgan and I, "What are you doing here!?"

"P-Pardon, I was just congratulating you on a good race," He explains.

"Are you? Or are you just here to see me in my swimsuit you pervert!" Nah exclaims completely out of nowhere.

"E-Excuse me!? I am here simply because I write the athletics sections for the school paper and report on most of the schools major athletic events! Why they would assign such an unfitting duty to me is far beyond any of my vast knowledge but it is my duty nonetheless," Laurent says.

"Oh is that why you were at the Track meet?" I ask.

"Exactly."

"He was at the track meet!?" Nah mutters.

Laurent lets out a sigh, "Nah I am simply asking for a few words to comment on your meet, that is all."

"Well go ask Kjelle or someone!" Nah said, causing Laurent to walk away.

"Nah, was that really necessary, he really was just doing what he's supposed to do," I say, finding Nah to be overreacting.

"Did neither of you see him? He was undressing me with his eyes I tell you!" Nah says.

"Well can you blame him Nah, you're just so cute in that thing!"Morgan states once more.

"Sis you aren't helping," I say.

"Well it's fine, he's gone, my parents are waiting for me, since I made you two sit through the whole thing do you guys want a ride home?" Nah asks.

"That'd be nice, thank you." I say as Nah goes to change.
