Haru lives in a colorless world. The only color he has to savor is his best friend, Makoto. What a hopeless romantic Makoto is, despite his efforts. Haru can fall in love as soon as the touch of a hand- the hand he's been holding for almost eight years now. Falling into the hopeless abyss we call love is hard, but so is loving the one who you would never think you had a chance with. I DO NOT OWN FREE! IWATOBI SWIM CLUB OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS.

Summary: Haruka wasn't sure if he'd missed a step in the process, or just been born completely outside of it. He'd thought on several occasions, if only his parents had married for love and not money, maybe he wouldn't be this way. Maybe if he had been born from the passion of lovers under a starlit night sky, he too would have grown into love the way everyone else did. "That's gross!" As far back as elementary school, Haruka had sealed himself away. "...What?" There was something so fundamental about the way everyone around him thought, something so innate that no one had ever bothered to give it a name. Something unspoken, perhaps it was a feeling more than a thought. Something, whatever it was, Haruka did not have. "Boys can't love each other! Don't be gross." ___________________ Pairing: Makoto Tachibana / Haruka Nanase Fandom: free! © MsKirishima & FangirlTakeover Warning: Yaoi

A MakoHaru Fanfic c: After Rin is threatened by his Homophobic parents that he should either chose Haru or Swim, the indecisive teenager ditches his boyfriend to continue his promising career as a competitive swimmer. This act leaves Haru torn and helpless. His heart was annihilated and with no support, Haru starts to lose his mind. That was until Makoto discovered the damage that had been done. That was when everything changed for Haru, he was no longer alone. Makoto's kindness towards Haru sparked something within him; a tingling sensation that he couldn't pinpoint but he knew that this sensation was definitely more than just friendship...

A MakoHaru Fanfiction. Makoto has always had feelings for his beloved friend Haru. But as time goes on, will Haru feel the same? Will Makoto have the courage to tell Haru his real feelings? Will there love go unnoticed?

Haru is scared of his feelings towards Makoto, so he keeps them hidden. When Makoto finally opens Haru up and gets him to admit his love for him, things might finally turn out the way he's always dreamed, and he can finally be truly free. (I do not own the Free! franchise. This is just a fic I wrote to express my love for them. Also, the cover is courtesy of Pinterest so thanks!) p.s. there is some inappropriateness (I know, that isn't a word) which is why it's rated pg-13. Well, yaoi basically. Just thought I would warn you in case you aren't into that stuff, that way you don't have to read it and be shocked or anything. So enjoy!!

Apparently there's a "MakoHaru Festival" from Febuary 14-March 14 this year, so, as they are my otp, I decided to join in. The event was originally on tumblr, but why not share my stuff on here, too! :3 There's a different prompt for each day, (writing them in advance because I'm lame lol) so I'll be making a short story for each. Hope you enjoy! (PS my tumblr is jaegerbombswagstic)
