The morning sun brought a new day like it did every other day, but for Makoto; it was the first morning sun that brought the start of his relationship with Haruka. He stayed up the majority of the night texting Haruka. In the end he only got two hours of sleep, but it didn't matter to him. He had fun talking with his lover about random topics and sending random pictures of cats that Haruka couldn't deny were cute.

Makoto took a quick shower and changed into a green v-neck shirt that complimented his muscles perfectly and black pants that fitted to his lower body just right. Looking into the mirror, Makoto fixed his hair and wondered why Haruka loved him. In reality, Makoto didn't consider himself that good-looking and he was terrified of scary things like a child. He never understood why some girls and even some guys had crushes on him.

He did grow a lot throughout the years. He used to be smaller when he was a kid and always held onto Haruka's hand whenever he was scared or uneasy. Now that he was bigger, he wanted to be the one protecting Haruka from any harm that came his way.

Makoto put down his brush and looked over at his cell phone. He needed to contact Kisumi and tell him about Haruka now being his lover. He didn't want to break Kisumi's heart, but he didn't want Haruka to worry either and he needed to give Kisumi an answer sooner or later. Makoto grabbed his phone and dialed Kisumi's number. After a few rings, the call went to voicemail.

"Kisumi, its Makoto. I'm sorry if I'm calling you too early, but I want to talk to you. Let me know when you're free so we can meet up. Bye."

Makoto hung up the call and sighed out. He didn't want to be the reason for someone's sadness, but there was nothing he could do to make it easy. Makoto's phone beeped which startled him a little. He quickly looked down and saw that Nagisa had sent him a text. His heart beat slowed down and he smiled nervously. He wasn't the type to reject someone, so he was nervous and scared to face Kisumi.

"Haru-chan! Mako-chan! We thought you weren't going to come!" Nagisa yelled as he waved at the two who were walking into the pool room. They were lucky to get the pool to themselves for a few hours. Haruka was excited and told himself that he'd take advantage of being in the water until they had to leave.

"Sorry Nagisa. We left our houses late and then had to go change into our swimsuits," Makoto replied with a nervous smile.

"Ah, it's okay! It gave Rei-chan and me time to make out!" Nagisa responded with a smile. Rei's face turned bright red as he averted his gaze in embarrassment.

"Makoto…" Haruka glanced over at Makoto who looked back at him. Makoto quickly understood what Haruka wanted and looked back at Nagisa and Rei.

"Umm, Nagisa, Rei, there's something we need to tell you."

"What is it Makoto-senpai?" Rei asked with concern.

"Well, Haru and I are going out."

"WHAT?!" Both Nagisa and Rei screamed out. Haruka turned away from the three and was about to walk towards the pool. Makoto quickly grabbed his arm and prevented him from leaving.

"Haru! Don't walk away!"

"Finally! I almost thought this day would never come!" Nagisa yelled out. "Mako-chan and Haru-chan are together at last! So tell me all the details! Who confessed first? Did you kiss? Did someone cry? Did you two go all the way?!"

Haruka desperately tried to get away. He didn't want to face Nagisa and Rei. Makoto kept his hold on Haruka's arm firm and smiled nervously at his two friends. "Nagisa…Please don't go overboard. Haru was the one to confess first and then I confessed and kissed him. That's all that happened."

"Where did it happen? What made stubborn Haru-chan confess first?!"

"Umm…Haru was in the bathtub in his house."

"That sounds like Haruka-senpai," Rei replied with a slight chuckle. Haruka's face turned a brighter shade of red.

"And Haru confessed first because…" Makoto hesitated to say the rest which Haruka quickly caught and decided he should finish the sentence.

"Kisumi kissed Makoto and wants him…" Haruka said. Nagisa's and Rei's eyes went wide.

"EH?! Is that true Mako-chan?!" Nagisa said in complete disbelief.

"Yes, it's true."

"I don't know who he is, but have you told him about your relationship Makoto-senpai?" Rei asked with a slight hint of worry in his voice.

"I left him a voicemail and told him to call me so we can meet up and talk. I already told Haru I'd tell Kisumi directly about us so now I just have to wait."

"That's good. I wouldn't want Haru-chan to be worried about another guy trying to steal you away," Nagisa replied with a small frown. Haruka's eyes saddened a bit at the thought of losing Makoto to someone else. He stopped resisting and stood silent and motionless next to his new lover. Makoto looked at him and smiled.

"No one's going to take me away from you Haru. I told you already, you're the only one for me." Makoto leaned over and placed a gentle kiss on Haruka's cheek. Rei blushed and Nagisa nearly squealed his lungs out. Haruka smiled slightly and grabbed onto Makoto's hand, completely ignoring Nagisa and Rei.

"Let's go swim."

The Iwatobi beach was beautiful at night time. There was only the sound of the waves crashing against the shore. Makoto hurried to get there after he received a message from Kisumi to meet up. As soon as he got closer he saw the pink haired male sitting on the sand, watching the waves move closer and then further away. Makoto quickly ran up to his side.

"Kisumi!"

Kisumi turned his head as Makoto made his way over. "What took you so long?" Makoto sat down next to him and smiled sheepishly.

"I was out with Haru and my friends all day. We were out eating when you sent the text. I'm sorry for making you wait."

"No, it's alright. It's calm here, so it didn't seem like I waited that long."

"That's good."

"So…You wanted to talk. I'm assuming you've made up your mind."

Makoto tensed up a little and looked over at the water. "Yeah…The truth is…I've always liked Haru more then a friend. Last night he told me he felt the same way and…we're together now."

"Hmm…So that's how it is."

"I'm really sorry Kisumi. You're a really great friend and I don't want to lose you because of this."

"Idiot…You're too good to give up…Did you tell Haru about the kiss?"

"Huh? Oh yeah I did. He got really mad about it."

"I see…Makoto…"

"Hm?"

Kisumi quickly pushed Makoto down onto the sand and sat on top of him. He grabbed onto Makoto's chin and leaned his face closer. "K-Kisumi!" Makoto said in surprise.

"Are you sure Haruka wants you in a romantic way? He could just be scared to lose you as a friend if someone else comes into your life…"

"Haru wouldn't do that!"

"How can you be sure Makoto?"

"He confessed and kissed me! That's all the proof I need!"

"That's not enough. I'll show you that it's not enough…" Kisumi let go of Makoto and stood up. "I saw Rin today and you know what he told me. He said that he's in love with Haruka and that he was going to do whatever it took to be with him. Don't you think Haruka would rather be with Rin? What if he's using you as a replacement because he didn't know if Rin felt the same? These are questions you're going to have to think about Mako. If you need me, just call me."

Kisumi moved away from Makoto and walked off. He didn't look back. He knew Makoto was lying in shock after what he had just revealed to him.

Hurry up and take Haruka, Rin. I need to capture Makoto's heart as quickly as I can. He will be mine.
