'3' hi. I wanted to make this because I really love the free- iwatobi swim club characters. So, yeah. Here goes nothing!
I don't own anything from the anime and I may get things wrong. But oh well!!!
¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω
"Thanks Makoto-san for bringing me along!"
I say cheerfully as Makoto and I walked down the sidewalk to Haru senpai's house.
"You're welcome and you don't have to say 'san' after my name."
"But can I if I want to?"
"Sure."
I try to peek at his phone from behind, but he notices and blocks my view.
"Damn! Why won't you let me see who you're texting?"
"Because you don't need to know!"
He turned around and put his phone up with the camera facing twords me.
"Hey! Don't take a picture of me! I look horrible!"
"Heheh... I'm not! I'm taking a video!"
"Ugghh! That's even worse! Cut it out Makoto-san!"
I walked on ahead and he was still videotaping me.
"Hey wait up! You don't know where to go!"
He ran beside me and grabbed my hand and tugged slightly.
"What do you want?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Every time you hold my hand, you want something."
I slightly gave his phone a side glance of an annoyed look.
"Well, maybe there is something... Don't act like Rin's sister does when we are around Haruka, ok?"
"Oh? How does she act?"
"She starts to freak out and even got a nosebleed once."
I felt shocked for some reason. It was normal for her but still, I was worried I may do the same thing.
"I'll try not to!"
We walked along in silence for a while until I heard a phone go off.
This is how to be a heartbreaker!
Boy's, they like a little danger!
We'll get them falling for a stranger, a player,
Singing, I lo-lo-love you!
How to be a heartbreaker!
Boy's, they like the look of danger!
We'll get them falling for a stranger, a player,
Singing I lo-lo-love you,
At least I think i do!
"Ah! Damn!"
I pulled my phone out of my pocket to look who was calling me. It was Rei-san.
"Hello?"
"Hey Akiko? Are you and Makoto almost here? We all want to eat but Nagisa won't let anyone."
"Oh, you knew I was going to be there, too?"
"Yeah, Makoto told us."
"Darn. I wanted it to be a surprise! Oh well! We'll be there in a little bit I think."
"Ok. Well bye!"
"Sayõnara!"
I could hear him chuckle as I hung up.
"How much further, Makoto-san?"
"Just one more block."
------5 minutes later------
"We're here!"
Makoto said as he opened the door and yelled in.
"Guys! Sorry it took us a while."
"AKIKO!"
Nagisa came running from around the corner and grabbed my hand like an excited little child.
"C'mon! C'mon! I want you to meet Rin!"
I had heard a lot about him but never actually met him.
"O-ok but slow down! I'm gonna trip over som- ahh!"
I started to fall after my foot hit the corner of the wall as we were running. I felt strong arms grab me and prevent me from falling to the floor. I open my eyes to see Haru senpai in a blue apron over his swimsuit.
"U-uhhh... S-sorry! You can just drop me on the ground... I'd be used to it..."
Instead, he picked me up, still in his arms, and helped my regain my balance.
"It'd be rude of me to let you fall to the ground."
He let go of me and went back to where he was. He sat down at the table where everyone else was. I felt my face heat up more as I felt everyone stare at me. An awkward silence filled the room.
Then, we heard the front door crash open.
"HARU-CHAN! ARE YOU HERE?!"
It was Kou, Rin's sister.
"Would you please quiet down?!"
Rin yelled as he came into the room.
"Oh? Who's this?"
He walked over to me and crouched down so he was eye level with me.
"She's kinda cute!"
"W-what?!"
I started to stumble backwards until I felt a hand on the middle of my back.
"Try to keep your balance this time."
Haru senpai said so nonchalantly.
"S-sorry Haru..."
"I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT'S ALLOWED TO JUST CALL HIM HARU!"
Kou screamed as she got in my face.
"I-I'm sorry! I didn't know that."
"Just call him Haruka like everyone else!"
She managed to squeeze in between Haru and me and sit down. She leaned on Haru and he didn't seem to mind. I felt really jealous. I knew that they were dating but I couldn't stop myself from falling in love with him. Even though he was quiet, he was very sweet if you hung around him for a while. During middle school, he would come to me crying and I would do the same to him. We were best friends. Then, he joined the swim club and we hadn't talked since the first two weeks of highschool. When I saw him again, he didn't know it was me.
(Flashback)
"I hope you have a better day today Akiko! Bye!"
"Bye Shiro!"
I waved as my cousin went to her class. I was about to walk down the hall to my first class but something caught my eye.
"Ah! Haru?! Is that you?! Haru!"
I yelled and ran to catch up with him. He was walking with a guy with blonde hair and one with navy blue hair. He turned around and gave me a blank stare.
"Haru?"
I felt nervous. I was worried I had the wrong person.
"Yes. That's me... Who are you?"
I felt my heart break a little.
"Huh? You don't remember me?"
I tried to put on a smile but couldn't stop the tears from falling.
"Should I? Why are you crying?"
Hw seemed slightly angry.
"Are you alright, miss?"
The boy with navy blue hair asked.
"Y-yeah... I'm fine. I just thought I knew Haru... S-sorry to bother you!"
I started to run away.
"Hey! Wait!"
I heard footsteps running after me. I slowed down my pace until I was at a complete stop. I turned around to see the boy with blonde hair.
"I'm Nagisa. The other guy you met was Rei."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I am telling you this because now that you know who we are, you can come to us if you have any problems!"
He said with a cheerful smile.
"T-thank you... Nagisa-... San..."
"Hm? You don't have to say 'san' after it, unless you want to. Ok, I gotta go! Don't wanna be late for science."
He turned away and ran off.
"Thank you, Nagisa."
