"GOD DAMMIT!" Kuruno-kun slams her fist into the water. I flinch, she punched the water. she PUNCHED the WATER! KURUNO-KUN HIT THE WATER AND THE WATER IS A MERCILESS DEMON WHEN MAD!

"N'aww! You sad Kuruno?" Hikari sneers from the poolside.

"Meh, you win some you lose some." Aka-kun nods.

"Aoi currently posesses the record for backstroke." Ami-chan states.

"AOI-CHAN!" Nito' waves his arms around, he's holding the stopwatch.

"Aoi-chan!" Kaito calls.

"Aoi! You did it!" Fubuki exclaims.

"What? Won?" I cock a brow.

"No, that win was clear. You got Kuruno-kun by a second and a half!" Hikari shakes her head.

"Nito'! Let me see the stopwatch!" Mei-chan orders.

"Hai!" the silver haired boy hands my original rommate the stopwatch. She glances at the stopwatch and then to the stopwatch. Her topaz eyes light up.

"KYAHH!!" she jumps into the pool, having dropped the clipboard and stopwatch.

"Eh?" I cock a brow.

"What NOW fakey fakey captain?" Kuruno-kun rolls her forest green eyes.

"AOI-CHAN YOU JUST DESTROYED YOUR PB!" Mei-chan hugs me.

"I did?" I gasp. "I was comfortable. Usually it hurts to push myself beyond a PB." I muse.

"Haha!" Hikari and Aka laugh. Mei's eyes narrow as a figure cuts through the lanes.

"Ryugazaki-senpai! Ryugazaki-senpai!" Mikoshiba Momo exclaims.

"Hey Momo." I smile.

"Hi Momo." Mei shoves her brother a step aside.

"Hey there Minishiba." Ami-chan waves.

"Hey might-as-well-be-shiba." Momo makes a peace sign.

"What's up Momo?" I ask.

"Ryugazaki-senpai! You are amazing! I've seen you swim at contests before! Man, you're amazing! TEACH ME HOW TO BEAT YOU SENPAI!" he begs, knocking me over so I slip in the water.

I bump my head on the floor, grateful to still have my hair piled up as a cushion for my head.

"Senpai! Holy crap! I've killed my senpai." Momo exclaims.

"What's wrong Momo?" Rin growls from the poolside.

"Momo, one hit of the head won't stop Aoi! A hit on the head is her competition signiture!" Mei-chan laughs. A lot.

"You thought her hitting her head would kill HER." Fubuki laughs.

"Her brother maybe but not her!"

"Not the time to remind me about what Aki did Nito'!" I reprimand.

"Gomen Aoi-chan!" Nito' yelps. I smile, hoisting myself out of the water.

Kuruno-kun is out of the water too, I approach her as she passes the bleachers where Hikari and Aka are laughing still.

"Good race Kuruno-kun." I hold my hand out of her.

"Tch." she storms off.

"Can't take it!" Hikari snorts through gasps for air.

"Of course not!" Aka exclaims.

"Oi, Aoi; are we meeting you guys at the main gate. Since it's Friday and all the gates are open for ys longer." Hinata calls.
