The walk to the rec center was a pleasant one for Haruka. All he could think about was Makoto. He wished the olive haired male was still in Iwatobi, and then the two of them could have gone swimming together along with Rei and Nagisa. The way Makoto swam backstroke was always a dazzling sight to Haruka. He never said it out loud, but he loved seeing Makoto swim. He loved it even more when Makoto came out of the pool dripping wet. The water running down his upper body was always a slight tease to Haruka, as if the water itself was telling him he wished he could be as close to Makoto as it was.

Now Haruka was as close to Makoto as the water had been. They had confirmed their love under the sheets and continued to express it through texts and calls. Sometimes Haruka caught himself wondering what the future would be like for them. Would they find a place together in Iwatobi? Would they adopt a small kitten and treat it as their own child? The thought brought a smile to Haruka's face. Just imagining Makoto coming home to eat dinner with him and then embracing him in bed once the day was over made his heart skip a beat.

Haruka's mind was so preoccupied with thoughts of Makoto that he didn't realize he had finally made it to the rec center. He quickly snapped out of his daze and put on his nonchalant facial expression. He was there to swim with Rin, Sosuke and Nitori as planned. The water would take his mind off of his boyfriend for a while. Haruka made his way into the building and walked towards the pool room. As he entered the room, he noticed Nitori was already swimming in the pool.

Nitori popped his head out of the water and looked up at Haruka with a smile. "Hello Haruka!"

"Hi," Haruka replied. "Are Rin and Sosuke still in the locker room?"

"Yup. They should be out here soon."

Haruka nodded his head and started to make his way towards the locker room. Inside he was surprised when he spotted Rin and Sosuke making out. Sosuke had Rin in between him and the lockers, and by the look of it, both of them were very passionate with their kisses. Haruka couldn't help but blush a little. He had walked into an unexpected situation.

Rin slowly started to open his eyes and noticed that Haruka was standing near the doorway of the locker room. He quickly pushed Sosuke off of him and steadied his breathing as best as he could. "Haru! I didn't hear you come in! Ah, sorry you had to see that!"

"No, it's okay…So the two of you are going out?" Haruka asked, still a bit embarrassed with what he saw.

Rin grinned, "No, we were just passing the time until you got here."

"What?" Haruka responded back. He suddenly felt himself being pushed further into the room. Sosuke took the chance to grab Haruka and kept a firm embrace so he couldn't get away. Nitori looked over at Rin who was still grinning as he watched Haruka struggle.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Haruka yelled as he glared at Rin.

"I wanted to show you what you were missing Haru. I bet Makoto doesn't kiss you like I was kissing Sosuke, right?"

"That's none of your business! Sosuke let me go!" Haruka screamed trying his hardest to break free. It was useless against Sosuke's strength, but even knowing that Haruka still put all of his energy into trying to slip away. Rin walked over to him and grabbed his face, forcing Haruka to look at him.

"I really wanted to seduce you into picking me over Makoto, but I see that you won't change your mind so easily. So, we're going to do something else. Unless you want Makoto to get hurt, you'll break up with him and become mine."

"Like I'd do that!"

"Oh, but you have no choice Haru. Think about it for a minute. Makoto could get hurt while he's in college. I might accidentally call someone up and have him get his friends to track Makoto down and hurt him a little. You wouldn't want that would you?"

"You wouldn't do that…" Haruka said back with as much anger as he could express. Rin leaned his face closer to Haruka's, making sure his fiery eyes were in direct contact with Haruka's ocean blue.

"Do you want to take that chance?"

Haruka grit his teeth in frustration. Any threat made towards his boyfriend was to be taken seriously. Haruka didn't want to be the reason Makoto got hurt. He slowly lowered his gaze and took a moment before he opened his mouth to reply.

"I'll do whatever you want…Just don't hurt Makoto."

XXXX

Makoto felt a chill run down his spine. He had just finished his last class for the day and was currently making his way back to his dorm. He still hadn't come across Kisumi, which was a good and bad thing. Makoto took out his phone and checked to see if he had any new messages or missed calls. There were a few new texts, but none of them were from Haruka. Makoto put his phone back into his pocket and continued walking.

As he turned the corner, he spotted bubblegum pink hair and automatically knew who it belonged to. Kisumi was sitting alone on a patch of grass, watching the clouds pass by in the sky. He had his basketball jersey and shirt on. Makoto hesitantly made his way over to Kisumi's side and sat down next to him. He could see Kisumi glancing over at him from the corner of his eye, but decided to stay silent for a while longer. Kisumi looked back up at the sky.

"What do you want?" Kisumi asked.

"I…wanted us to talk about what happened last night…Kisumi, why can't you accept that Haruka is the person I love?"

Kisumi scoffed out and laughed a little. "How would you feel if Haruka was in love with someone else and told you to accept it? It wouldn't be easy right."

"No, it wouldn't, but I'd try my hardest to make sure I didn't do anything to upset Haru."

"Hmm…"

Makoto wasn't sure what else he could say to mend their rocky friendship. He was about to say something else, but his phone beeped in his pocket, indicating a new message had arrived. Makoto took out his phone and saw that it was from Haruka. He quickly opened the message, expecting to read something like "I just got home," or "Have you talked to Kisumi yet?" What Makoto was currently reading wasn't processing in his mind or in his heart. Kisumi noticed Makoto's shocked face.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Makoto couldn't find the willpower to reply. All he could focus on were the five words in front of him.

Haruka: I'm breaking up with you.
