Work Text:

It was around 1:00 AM - Neither Rin or Haru could sleep. They'd have been miles apart from each other for a long while now and if you asked Haru if it bothered him, he'd fake a smile and tell you no. Each day it was getting easier for Haru to just say words that would convince people he was happy. Even Makoto, Nagisa, Rei, and Gou - His best friends.

>>From: Rin
Haru! Do you want to skype tonight, babe? You know, on camera this time..

>>From: Me
Of course, my love. Call me in two minutes, 'kay?

And with that, Haru prepared himself for his video call with his boyfriend.
Would Rin ask him if he missed him? Does Rin miss Haru? Or is he going to break up with him for someone else? There's so many gorgeous people in Australia, Haru wouldn't
blame Rin for it. In Australia there were always better people.. People Rin could actually touch if he wanted to. His thinking was cut off by the laptop ringing, a message poping up with the words: "Shark_Bait153 is wanting to video chat. Do you accept?" Haru clicked yes, fixing his hair and getting under his covers with his laptop infront of him.

"Haru! Hi, God I missed you so much." You could see the excitement in Rin's face. He was truly happy to see Haru, even though he probably looked super tired. "Heh.. Hi handsome. I missed you too. How was your day?" Haru couldn't reply without letting out a small giggle, replying to his boyfriend's words.

"My day was good, I guess. I learned something new on the guitar, by myself actually. I wanted to sing it to you. May I, my prince?" With that said, Rin grabbed the guitar leaning over by his bed side, setting it in the correct position on his lap. "Of course you can, Rin! You know how much I love to hear you sing," A deep shade of pink appeared on Haru's cheeks, looking down with his hands hid beneath the over-sized sweater Rin gave him. "A-Alright.. I only know a few lines and the chorus, so..Yeah. Don't laugh, o-okay?" Rin had gotten ready to play for Haru as he gave him a quick nod, promising not to laugh even though he would never.

"And count the stars to form in lines and find the words we'll sing in time.
I want to keep him dreaming, It's my one wish, I won't forget this. I'm outdated, overrated, morning seems so far way.."

"So I'll sing a melody and hope to God he's listening, sleeping softly while I sing. And I'll be your memories, your lullaby for all the times. Hoping that my voice could get it right."

Right after Rin stopped singing, he was still struming his guitar, humming along to the melody of the song. Tears started to stream down Haru's face, falling down to his cheeks. He loved the way his boyfriend sang, it really was like a lullaby. So beautiful, yet calm as well. "Haru?! What's wrong? Did I did I do something?" Rin asked in a worried tone, setting down the guitar where it belonged. "I-I just missed you a-alot, babe..I thought you would f-find someone.." By the time he could even finish his sentence, more tears began to stream down his face. His covered hands now over his face, wiping the tears. "Better."

Once the word, THAT word, left Haru's mouth, Rin quickly answered back. "Haru, No one ever, ever, EVER could compare to you, Babe..You're perfect. Amazing. Everything I need and want in a partner, boyfriend, Husband..." Haru had looked up from his hands, a shocked expression on his face. "If i knew you felt like this way before hand, I'd come back for you. I don't even care about Australia anymore, I just want to be with you. And I'm going to. I'm coming down there tomorrow, Haru. I've kept it a secret, but now.. it's a good time to say it." Once again, Haru started to cry again. A hand covering his mouth once more before flashing a quick smile.

"H-Haru?! I'm confused right now, is that happy tears or bad tears?" A covered laughed escaped from his boyfriend's lips, wiping his tears and smiling at his screen. "Dummy. It's happy tears. I just can't believe you're going to be here tomorrow...I get to hold you again and eat-"

"No. We are NOT eating mackerel on our first day of being together again."

"Buuuuut, Baby!"

"No."

"No hugs, cuddles, and kisses for you then."

"I could live with that."

"No putting your hands on me either. And you know what I mean by that."

"Haru. Don't do this."

"Then say we can eat mackerel tomorrow."

"W-We...We can eat mackerel tomotrow."

A cheer came from Haru's lips, giggling behind his hands. "Yay! I love you, Matsuoka. A lot, More than you'll ever know."

"I think I love you WAAAY more, Nanase. I can prove it to you tomorrow, too. Just you wait, 'kay?"
