Haru-chan -5-

Domo! Reader-Chan^^
I'm really happy having you here :3
This Chapter was quite difficult for me to write it may be
short I know... But I thought it was nice idea to give you
a chapter only with Haru and noone ells
Thank you for reading my story :D

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Haru was pointing a bench in a small park not really far from my house. His face looked cool and serious as always but I could clearly see that his body was tensed. It's the first time that the two of us are alone after I met them again. But at my surprise I was quite calm. We reached the bench and sat next to each other. It was strange for him to talk first –He actually asked me to use the bench together - So that means that I have to do the next move?
"Whoa! I can see the ocean from here!" I just noticed, the view is stunning. I saw a light smirk on Haru's face. How cute! As I was enjoying the view my eyes went to the sky... "So many stars" I must look like a toddler who had his first experience with stars with my mouth wide open in amusement.
"They are more visible now, the weather is getting warmer" Haru added, he was staring the dark blue water, as expected.
"I'm looking forward to swim in this part of the ocean again." I said with a light smile on my lips.
"Ocean is nice" His face was dead serious, I giggled a little and I saw that he was staring... way more than normal...
"Haru? Is everything ok?"
"Yeah..." He probably said that everything was ok but it didn't seem so...
"Ne! Haru...my Oba-Chan...told me about your...you know" I wanted to talk with Haru about his grandmother's death
"I wanted us to talk about your Oba-San, I wanted to talk to you about that, when we would be alone, and here we are. My Oba-Chan told me what happened two years ago, in a letter of hers." I saw Haru lose his cool... not dramatically, but his expression soften a bit so I thought it was a good idea to continue.
"Well... it must be horrible for you back then; it was her that she actually spend more time with you anyway"
"Everything is ok now, all that, was two years ago" His eyes still on the ocean.
"I don't know what will I do if I lose Hiroko Oba-Chan" I wanted to cry; even the thought of it terrifies me.
"If you ever want to talk to someone, well I don't think that there would be such a possibility it's you who talk about, but I want you to know you can talk to me, about everything." I saw his little smile and I smiled back.
"I would be more than happy to help you." I said still with the smile on my face. Oi! Come on! Something is bothering him I can see that. Why can't he just tell me what's going on? Well this is Nanase Haruka after all.
I wanted to ask him; why did he stop swimming? I didn't want to upset him, but I wanted to know, I want to know what happed. I stayed silent for a minute or two. I couldn't find something to tell him. It felt strange to be alone with him, in the middle of the night, but the silence between us was not awkward.
"What's wrong?" Wait what? That's my line...
"I'm ok" I said nervously. What was the meaning of this? I will try to act cool nothing tricky is behind this question...
"You haven't said a word quite a while, its unusual for you, I guess..." This was blush on his chicks? His eyes didn't meet mine. Ook... he is nervous about something... I have to calm him, I'll ask something casual...
"Well... How are your parents doing? They aren't in Iwatobi as usual?" Ok maybe I overdid it with the casual thing but what said are said...
"Yeah...they are...fine I guess...we don't talk much they will be here for autumn..." He didn't usually talk about his parents I'm surprised that he gave me some kind of an answer.
"Do you sometimes miss them?" I didn't think before asking. He probably thinks that I'm annoying...
"Yeah...I guess, Do you?" Now he turned to face me with some concern in his eyes. It was absolutely rare for Haru to add emotion to his face I suddenly felt lucky...
"It's too soon to tell, but I feel relaxed to be in Iwatobi again, I waited too much to feel like home again..." The last thing I said came out of my mouth accidentally. Haru's eyes turned to normal and his lips formed a light smile.
He is serious again he opens his mouth to speak
"Why did you choose our school?" his tone was blank.
"What do you mean? There is only one actual high school near my house... did you mean why did I choose the swim club?" I paused, waiting for him to response. He nodded. "I have no intention to lie, especially to you... I went to your club Haru, because all of my old friends are there, I may not be much of a help but I want us to be like we used to" I felt my eyes teary I wanted to hold back but it was impossible.
"If you want me to go in another club I won't blame you, we have to see each other for years and suddenly I come back after all this time, asking to be as we used to, like it is something easy for all of you. I don't know what you think of me, but to me back then you were my..." I speaked so fast that I'm not sure if he could clearly hear me. Large tears were escaping from my both eyes making my vision blur.
I feel something tickles behind my waist, before I screamed (coz this is what I was planning to do) Haru's arms are around me, dragging me on his chest, it was not gentle but not rough at the same time. I couldn't say a word, I hugged him back just laid there watering his shirt with my tears. I felt his head resting on mine, when he suddenly talked;
"I didn't get exactly what you said but for you to cry like that, it must be really dump" I giggled as my tears stopped; I felt my head burning on his cool chest, wait...chest? Haru's...oh my god hopefully its dark and he would not notice my redness.
A few minutes have past and we were still hugging each other... It was strange, generally I didn't share long hugs with other people especially with boys, and for some reason I couldn't imagine Haru hugging depressed girls on his free time, but here we are... hugging each other, without a word, just us. He wasn't much taller than I, but the difference was noticeable, my tears were long stopped and I raise my eyes to face him. His face expression was weird, his eyes seemed like surprised his mouth was sat and I could see his light blush (it was dark after all :P)
"Haru... Thank you" There wasn't something ells that I wanted to say. His face was just adorable he slowly looked away. Still having his arms around me.
"No problem" He whispered. I didn't want to end the moment coz he would soon took his hands of me and I couldn't even think that, especially before-
I didn't stand and think about it before I do it; It was more like physical reaction... I placed my hands on the back of his neck to take him closer, slowly I tacked gently the right corner of his lips with my eyes closed. I sensed his body tensed and his arms tightened around me; he didn't expect that, good! I opened one of my eyes to see him, His eyes were closed, good thing. Softly I went back to see his face with both of my eyes
"Practically this was my first kiss you know..."
He opened his ocean eyes; they stare straight inside my (eye color) ones... He didn't do or say anything, I 'm starting to worry if he heard me, I definitely can't say that again.
He suddenly placed his hand under my jaw. As he came closer to my face he closed his eyes. He kissed me gently at the beginning but after a few seconds it became rougher or maybe passionate is the right word. When we separated for air I hearted him saying
"It's the same for me"
I smiled a bit he did hear me...
We were on the way to my house again... After we left the park, almost nothing was said. I don't know for him but I felt like flying in the night sky.
I was just following Haru... like he was leading me somewhere, until I saw the front door of my house, I got out my keys to unlock the door. I turned to look at him, he had his eyes on me without saying a word. He blink once and I hugged him so tight that when I realized it, I wasn't sure if he was ok... he hugged me back and I couldn't help but smile.
"See you tomorrow?" I said as I pulled away. He nodded and he turned to leave
"Goodnight"
"Goodnight! Haru-Chan" I knew he didn't like to call him like that but I couldn't resist ( shameless reader-Chan :P)"How many times I have to say to all of you cut of the –Chan"
His face were serious but I could see his voice was playful (as playful as possible, it's still Haru we are talking about after all)
"Goodnight Haru-Chan"
but this time the -Chan was almost a whisper. He already turned the corner so he was not on my vision.
I was smiling like an idiot to myself; I had my first kiss today.
I went inside the house, my Oba-Chan was hopefully sleeping, so I went to take a shower. I didn't know how I would face Haru after what happened but I don't have much of a choice... It was just a kiss, right?
I must try to sleep coz I won't make it. Tomorrow I also have to go to the university a tiring day awaits me.
