You Are My Sunshine. [[COMPLETED]]

Chapter 15

I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED THESE LAST CHAPTERS.

THE TIMES AND DAYS ARE OFF, BUT WHATEVER.

JUST PRETEND THAT EVERYTHING IS FINE.  

ALRIGHT ALRIGHT

~time skip to finals~

Rin was standing on the dive board and pulled on his goggles, snapping them in the back, before he bends over and gets in his ready position. (^((dive board)) is that what it's called? Idk, I swam for 4 years too lol)

The shot rang out and Rin dove into the water, swimming butterfly for his team.

Over the past few days Haru had been avoiding Rin, not necessarily avoiding, but, training, by himself.

He couldn't help it. He realized that he wanted to go to swim on the Olympic team, and to get there he need to do well in finals, and Rin was only distracting.

Haru didn't think Rin really cared, he was just as set on training as Haru was. He understood it was time to train.

Rin raced down to the edge of the pool, slowly pulling ahead of the other males swimming butterfly.

(I DONT KNOW WHAT ITS CALLED WHEN THEY DO THE FLIP THING AT THE END OF THE POOL, SO IM GOING ON MEMORY AND SAYING KICKFLIP AIGHT?)

He performed a perfect kickflip and rocketed towards the end of the pool.

Haru's time had improved by 6 whole seconds, but that didn't seem like enough to win, knowing that freestyle was the easiest stroke to swim, every swimmer was kind of fast at it.

He really wished now that he had taken up a second stroke instead of just going by his 'i-only-swim-free' bullshit. He really regretted it, although, deep down, he knew he would probably suck at the other strokes.

But, backstroke is like backwards freestyle, it might be easy. But then it's the exact opposite of what he loved. Besides Rin.

Haru shook his head and focused his attention back on his boyfriend, who had just placed first in butterfly.

"Go Rin!" The Iwatobi swim club cheered for Rin, as he pulled himself from the pool and waved at them, a broad smile plastered on his face.

"Oh shit." Haru had just remembered, he was swimming next. He hurriedly stood from his seat and ripped off his jacket, grabbing his goggles and swim cap, before jogging down the steps and to the locker room.

He fixed the swim cap, and made his way out to the pool, standing in line behind 2 other guys.

He nervously stood on the board numbered 4, and pulled on the goggles, trying to calm his nerves. This was never like this. He never had been this nervous in his entire life.

"Get ready." The coach yelled throughout the indoor pool, silencing everyone.

"Get set." Haru bent down, wrapping his fingers around the edge of the board.

"Go!" The shot rang off as soon as Haru took his breath, and dove into the calming water.

His nerves instantly cooled off, easing him through the water. Finally Haru came up for air and began his stroke, pumping his arms and legs down the lane numbered 4.

Out of the corner of his eye he could see himself slowly pulling ahead of the other males, but he didn't focus on it too long, not wanting to lose speed.
