“What are you doing?” You plonked yourself down next to Haru who shuffled away from you slightly and tilted his body to hide whatever he was doing.

“Nothing.” You raised an eyebrow at him but didn’t question any further, all you could tell was he was gently scribbling away in his sketch book and squinting at it like it was the sun.

Your feet swung over the side of the empty pool that you had been working so hard to clean up for swimming season along with the boys. Who knew manual labour was so tiring? Haru’s eyes flicked up to scrutinise you, glad that you were instead staring at the clouds drift by. His hand moved the pencil across the paper, creating lines out of nothing and building shadows along them.

“Are you sure you’re doing nothing? It looks like you’re very busy.” You commented, cocking your head at him, only getting a mumbled ‘nothing’ from him again.

You sighed in exasperation and your arms gave way from behind you, causing you to lie down on the pool side, your hands resting on your chest. White fluffy snails and babies drifted past in the sky, causing a cathartic feeling to rush through you and you suddenly felt at ease even if your company was quietly entertaining himself.

You started to hum calmly, joining in with the birdsong. It wasn’t anything melodic but it didn’t seem to upset Haru, instead causing him to become more invested in whatever it was that he was actually doing.

“Haru?”

“Yes.”

“Are you drawing?”

“Yes.”

“You’re good at art aren’t you?” He didn’t respond immediately, clearly trying to be modest. You had never seen any of the contents in his sketchbook but you had seen the wooden figures he’d made to try and promote the swimming club. “What’s your favourite thing to draw?”

“You.”

This took you by surprise and you sat up in shock. He, on the other hand, did not seem overly fazed by his confession, maybe a slight blush tinted his cheeks. You stared into his blue eyes, intoxicated by them and he turned his book around, revealing what he had been working on.

The page showed many versions of you, many of them snapshots of you around the pool area, either with a broom or pulling weeds; just mundane tasks that somehow he had made to look beautiful. In every photo you had a smile on your face or were laughing, did he really see you like this?

“Haru… they’re gorgeous.” Your fingers traced slowly over the pencil, in awe of his talent. It was like he had taken photographs, whilst your capability reached the artistic level of drawing a sun in the corner of a page.

“Like you.” For a second you swooned but for the most part you laughed, for some reason it sounded so strange coming from Haru’s mouth.

“I thought Rin was supposed to be the romantic not you.” You giggled and he half glared at you causing you to apologise.

“I can be romantic too.”

“I know I’m sorry.”

“Kiss me.” His tone was completely monotone and blunt, making you giggle more.

“What?” Now you were stammering and he shuffled closer to you, closing the gap that he had created
earlier.

“Kiss me.”

“You’re really not good at this romantic thing you know.”

“Kiss me”

Well at least he was consistent. You rolled your eyes and smiled, leaning in to capture his lips slowly. It was awkward at first but when his hands settled on your waist and neck the two of you relaxed. Gradually your arms moved to wrap around his neck and the two of you rolled over, finding yourself lying down again. His sketch book had been half discarded next to you and the pages of it flitted slightly in the wind causing them to turn and shuffle through the many sketches; featuring you on every single page.

Maybe he was a romantic after all.

“I knew it! Look Rei-chan I told you so!” Haru removed his face from yours and looked up from where he was sat on top of you, meeting Makoto, Nagisa and Rei with his usual poker face. You tried to turn your head to look at them and ended up seeing them upside-down due to your position.

“Hi!” You grinned goofily at them, slightly giddy. Makoto and Rei were both flushed Red whilst Nagisa was bouncing between them with excitement.

“We’re going to lunch.” Makoto blurted out before running away like a shy puppy along with Rei.
Nagisa winked at you backed away slowly. “I’ll let you get back to it.”

“Y/N do you want to go to lunch?”

“Are you kidding?” You raised an eyebrow at him and pulled him down by the collar, kissing him once again.

“Okay good. Me neither.”
