The Scorching Sea

Ensuing Coincedences

Author's note:

***This chapter is almost entirely dialogue and friendly fluff between Rin Matsuoka and Sousuke. No smut this time around :/ SOWWY***

  >>>upcoming MakoRin. Rin is kinda OC. but hey this is fanfiction what did you expect?<<<

<<<Also I know wattpad says this is the last updated chapter, but I added a few more steamy paragraphs to The Stunning Encounter (aka the chapter before this one)>>>

I made a reference to the theory of Haru's sexual attraction to water: aquasexual

Also made a few Japanese weaboo references                                                                                                        For those of you who don't know                                                                                                                                  Tsundere: (ツンデレ ?, pronounced [tsɯndeɽe]) is a Japanese term for a character development process that describes a person who is initially cold and even hostile towards another person before gradually showing a warmer side over time.                                                              Shōjo, shoujo manga: (少女漫画 shōjo manga ?) is manga aimed at a teenage female readership. The name romanizes the Japanese 少女 (shōjo), literally "young woman". (Typically romantic blushy and fluffy shit)
 

Sousuke Yamazaki:

Today was Monday. It had only been three days since that goosebump-inducing massage was given to him. He decided to treat the incident as a sudden burst of friendliness towards Yamazaki's team for letting the Iwatobi team have joint practice with them. Nonetheless it had been a good massage, and his shoulders felt loads less achey, and heavy. Because of Nanase's gifted fingers, the space between his trapezius muscles behind his shoulders and neck opened up a lot. It was making his 100 yard butterfly stroke a lot smoother and less painful for him. 

He was going to owe Haruka for this. He knew his shoulder harness and icy hot packs only did so much to relieve his shoulders, and make swimming less agonizing for him. He had never stopped to think that maybe a massage or something of the likes would have helped him so much. Especially with those added whispers, and exchanges of words in between them. Those had done the very opposite of "loosening-up" certain parts of Sousuke's body. 

He'd never liked Haruka. But after that strangely arousing experience last Friday, he was seriously re-considering his favor for the little, big-eyed boy. Not to mention his eyes weren't the only thing that were big. The swimmer had a way of always unsettling something in Sousuke, but never like this. He'd always find himself sighing in frustration at Nanase's constant silence, but for the first time he'd shared more than two sentences with Yamazaki within a span of 30 minutes. They didn't truly converse as friend. More as a conversation between a professional doing his job, and the miserable customer looking for some help. Haruka did the job of offering future massages whenever the others weren't around to glare. Sousuke hesitantly replied that he'd take up the offer when the effects of the massage wore off again.

Yamazaki lay in his bed, pondering all of this when a fire truck red-haired, butt-naked, boy ran into his room, twerking wildly. This thoroughly burst his little bubble of thoughtfulness.

"OIII RIN!!! WHAT THE HELL!!??"

The boy turned around, seemingly suprised and his eyes locked in with Sousuke's. His eyes were filled with absolute glee and his razor-sharp smile spread before his eyes.
