Arabian Nights (Free! X Male!Reader)

Three

Haruka walked right beside you, stealing glances from time to time; you both have walked all night non stop, the sun about to rise to the sky. You guided (C/n) trying to distract yourself from the awkward silence that accompanied you some hours ago after taking off; you side glanced at the taller male beside you. He seemed to be lost in thoughts, you couldn't blame him; he was going back home after being away for months, now that you remember the conversation you had with him at the tent, he didn't mention why he left or what he was searching for during his journey. You returned your eyes to the front and saw a huge sand dune you had to cross. 

"Haruka-" "Call me Haru" That sudden interruption startled you a bit, but you continued with your suggestion. "Haru, we should surround the dune instead of climbing it." He denied by shaking his head. "The only way to get to the town is by climbing it, the Sultan is very weary of strangers so he placed traps at the sides."

You mentally sighed and filled your eyes with determination; at least the sun shined lighting the way, but not enough to heat the land, you should hurry before that happens. You nodded at Haru and started to make your way up; pulling (C/n)'s reins close to you. The sand sinks a little bit every time you step on it, making you curse lowly; Haru seemed to have the same problem but his stoic demeanor remained. When you reached the top, you had to support yourself by placing your hands on your knees, your breathing was uneven, your cheeks were flushed and sweat ran down your skin; Haru liked seeing you this way for some reason, it also gave him tingles on his lower region. Recovering yourself, you lifted up your head and gasped at the sight; a huge castle was the first thing that caught your eye, below the town's houses, it all was enclosed by a stone wall. "Woa..."

Time Skip.

After walking through the entrance, you were guided by Haru, you followed him closely trying not to distract yourself by everything that was going on around you, (C/n) behind you. The sun shined intensely on town, while you squished your way through the streets; eventhough you weren't in the market the place was full of merchants who sold the most beautiful cloths you've seen so far in your life, although you didn't see anyone selling water... Haru stopped walking, you accidentally collided with his back, making you stumble back a couple of steps."Sorry Haru." He turned around, looked at you from above since he is taller than you; his hand touched your nose that was a bit red by the impact, you glanced and locked your (E/c) eyes with his blue ones. Your cheeks flushed at this and your lips parted slightly; Haru almost melted at the sight.

He just met you a day ago and he felt so attracted to you, it confused him to no end; he wanted to taste your pink lips so bad. His hand moved slowly to your cheek and cupped it. It's the first time for him to feel desire towards something else that wasn't water. "Haru, is that you?" A voice interrupted you both, you searched for the voice's location, which was at your side. A man was looking at Haru, from a window or more a hole in the hardened sand wall, he had dark blond hair and green eyes. Haru pulled his hand away from you.

"Makoto."
