He had backstroke for days when no one else did- Makoto x reader

The begining

it was a cold winters day in (town), the snow was falling and all the neighborhood kids were out playing in the snow. "Hey Makoto, how are you on this beautiful winters day?" I said smiling. Makoto looked at me trying to look mad but as usual he broke and started laughing. " I am great, how are you (y/n)? you look a little pale." I looked at him intensely to let him know that I was fine and he didn't need to worry. He still did look worried, but the look passed. "(Y/n), I need to tell you something." I looked at him and smiled "Yeah Makoto what is it?" I was worried for what he had to tell me he never looked this sad. "I need to move, the school I am going to is called Iwatobi and I am so excited! They even have a pool for me to practice my backstroke in!" I looked at him I was so sad to hear that "I am so happy for you! I know how much you want to swim." Makoto looked at me and gave me a hug and started to smile "you have always been so supportive!" I looked at him and smiled "what are friends for! When are you leaving?" the smile on his face disappeared "today, I would have told you sooner but I didn't want to hurt you." I looked at him and pulled him into a hug "its ok thanks for sparing my feelings. I'm really going to miss you!" he looked at me as to tell me he would miss me too but the words never came out. With a blink of an eye Makoto was gone.
