Chapter Text
It was past nine in the evening and most of the Samezuka students are already inside their dormitories. Rin finished his rounds and made sure to lock up the pool to make sure that no one will trespass it like Haru and the others did last year. He entered his room and found his roommate in front of his desk, focused and blushing like a girl in a shoujo manga. The sound of keys being tapped repeatedly has annoyed Rin for these past few days.
It’s not like he doesn’t want Sousuke to have a love life or something, but he’s been hearing this tapping constantly and he dreamt about these sounds last night already. He doesn’t know if he will ask Sousuke on who is the mysterious person or not. Rin shrugged and just went to the bottom bunk and tried to sleep.
Thirty minutes had passed and Rin still cannot find his sleep. Why? It’s because of those evil noises that he’s been hearing. He rolled on his bed, facing Sousuke’s back. He is about to shout at his best friend when he heard an incomprehensible sound of “Teehee” or so he thought.
“Nah, Sousuke can you stop typing and start sleeping?” demanded Rin, his chin resting on his right hand.
The tapping stopped and Sousuke turned around, “Rin, you’re here already? I thought you’re going to make your rounds and take a shower around eight?”
Rin breathed deeply, “Idiot, do you know what time is it already?”
“Eight?” replied Sousuke with an annoying innocent look that made Rin want to throw him out of the window.
“GO TO SLEEP SOUSUKE! IT’S FREAKIN’ HALF PAST NINE ALREADY!” shouted Rin to his bestfriend.
Sousuke was quite surprised, “But I’m still talking to him. I can’t just say good bye now.”
“Him?” inquired Rin.
The look on the captain was so grim, he knew that he needs to answer correctly or else, “I’m still chatting with Tachibana.”
The redhead’s eyes grew bigger. Makoto? Huh? When? What? Why? Really? What the hell happened? When did they…? “Makoto?” Rin sighed, “Whatever you are talking about is none of my concern, but you really have to stop now. I’ve been hearing your keyboard noises for days and I am not patient whenever I don’t get enough of my sleep!”
“Why didn’t you tell me?” replied Sousuke, he turned back to his laptop when he heard a notification tone, “Wait a moment Rin.”
Rin gave up and rolled back to his previous sleeping position, “At least turn off the lights, you idiot!”
Sousuke did what he was told and turned off the lights. He went back to his laptop and read the message:
We can meet up tomorrow if you want.
That single line put a smirk on Sousuke’s face.
We have practice tomorrow until ten. I don’t mind if we meet up after.
Seconds later another reply came in.
Hmmm….lunch then? We can eat out somewhere.
The smirk grew into a grin.
Lunch is perfect.
Sousuke knew that he really owed Haru now.
