Makoto

“M-Makoto?! What are you doing here?!” Aoi asked, her face turning bright red.

“I’m guessing for the same reason as you.” Makoto said, smiling as he was dressed in the standard male school swimsuit.

“I doubt it…” Aoi said quietly.

“What?”

“Nothing!”

“Well, I like to come here after night because it’s empty and calm, and it’s a nice way to unwind. And get some exercise.” Makoto said with a laugh.

“R-right…” Aoi said, her look turning into one of horror as Makoto started walking towards the pool. “H-hey, um…can you like…umm…close your eyes? For a second?”

“Huh? Why?” Makoto asked. Aoi tried to think of a reason why, and so Makoto walked to the pool, and slowly got in. Aoi felt herself move up against the side of the pool as Makoto started swimming towards her. “Hey, wanna race? I know you’ll win, but I’d like to try-“

“N-no!” Aoi cried out, and Makoto stopped, surprised. “I-I mean…I…like my space, so…”

“Oh! Sorry, but…I thought you liked doing group activities?” Makoto asked, confused.

“W-well when I’m by myself, I like to have my own area.” Aoi quickly explained, and Makoto nodded, finally moving away from her. She breathed a sigh of relief, and considered her options. She could just try to get out, with him probably seeing her, she could lie and say she lost her swimsuit, and escape while he’s looking for it…or, she could splash him in the face and hope he would be stunned enough for her to get out.
