Free! Eternal Summer x Reader (ON HOLD)

Late [Makoto Tachibana x Reader]

Makoto was a well liked person in his neighborhood, siblings, people, school, and adults. Everyone simply adored his pure intentions and forever polite gestures. It's not surprising that a ton of girls are basically in love with the tall male. Heck, anyone could fall for Makoto. Even you. It never came to you how you fell for him. It all happened so suddenly. One moment you were both just two regular friends. But before you knew it all his gazes, smiles, and touches reddened your face and made your stomach churn with dragons. You have always considered confessing to him. But why would you? You always thought there was someone better for him, that he would be better off with someone else. Obviously, you wanted Makoto, but you were sure on the fact that he wouldn't return the feeling.

All the kids had left and all that were left was your little brother, who attending swimming lessons with other kids, all coached by Makoto himself. Makoto bent down to see the little boy's sad expression.

"Don't worry [B/N]-kun, your sister will come soon," he assured him gently.

"But everyone's gone and I'm the only one here..." He replied sadly.

"I'm here aren't I?"

"Yeah, but what if she never comes?" [B/N] said, his voice shaky and on the brink of tears.

"Don't worry okay? I promise to stay with you until she arrives," Makoto promised the little boy with an angelic smile, causing the smaller one to return a hopeful smile.

"[B/N]!" A feminine voice called out. The two looked down the hall and saw you running towards them.

"I'm so sorry for picking him up late!" You bowed, not seeing who the coach really was. You bent down to see if your brother was alright.

"It's okay, Makoto-sensei was with me!"

"Makoto?" You questioned and looked up to see the guy you had a crush on, smile down at you.

"M-Makoto?! You're the coach?!" You exclaimed.

"Haha, yes I am, [F/N]-chan," he replied kindly at you, making you blush a bit.

"W-Well that's nice then. But I apologize for giving you trouble and making you wait for me to pick up my brother,"

"Ah, no no, it's not your fault. This happens all the time so it's no trouble at all. And I couldn't leave him anyways," he smiled.

"I still feel bad though. Is there any way I could repay you?" You asked innocently.

"If you insist, how about me and you go out somewhere on Saturday?" He asked as your eyes widened.

"Y-You mean on a d-date?"

"Yup! I'll pick you up if you like," he offered.

"Sure, that'll be good," you agreed with red cheeks.

"Then it's settled! It's a date. I'll meet you on Saturday morning!" Makoto said excitedly, secretly celebrating inside because he finally had the guts to ask out the girl he's liked for so long.

You and [B/N] had to leave and on the way home, [B/N] noticed how happy you looked.

"Wow, onee-chan you must really like Makoto-sensei if you're this happy," he commented in awe.

"I do indeed," you smiled.
