(Y/N) wasn't exactly sure what to expect when she stepped into her old pool area, but watching her two friends strip down to their swimsuits with such aggression it would make a priest blush was not on her bucket list.

"You wanna see the difference between the two of us now?" Rin tosses his shirt to the side, his hair sprawling out and tangling above his brows. "It's gonna be like night and day." A quick glance to the side is all it takes to boost his ego as he spots (Y/N) tracing his muscles with her eyes.

The teen's eyes catch, and the (H/C) girl quickly looks away to focus on Haru, which only makes Rin's grin grow twice as much.

Haru had already begun to peel his shirt off, his demeanor cold and stiff. "All right, go ahead and show me."

"This isn't a good idea.." Makoto mumbles from the side with Nagisa, before reaching out and quickly blocking (Y/N)'s eyes with his palms. "Haru don't take your pants off-!" His plea is cut short as his friend drops his trousers, his knee long swimsuit on full display.

"You never actually changed out of them?!"

"Great minds think alike." Nagisa comments, his eyes trained on Rin already in his longer, red stripped swimsuit. A long wolf whistle catches their attention and both Makoto and Nagisa turn to see (Y/N) peeking out from the taller boy's fingers, her lips twitching as she tries to control her laughter.

"(Y/N)!"

Said girl chuckles quickly before clearing her throat. "I'm sorry! This is just so stupid!" She pushes Makoto's hands away and folds her arms across her stomach before facing the two stretching boys in-front of her.

"We have to stop them." Makoto calls out in panic, and is left alone when both Nagisa and (Y/N) shake their heads together with their arms crossed to form an 'X'.

"No!" They both say, and the taller boy grumbles in defeat. He turns his head and watches with nervousness as both Haru and Rin take off towards the diving boards.

Rin snatches his goggles and pulls them down to his eyes. "Haru, get ready!" He yells, and jumps atop the dive board. "Three..two..

"Go!" His call fades out when both him and Haru stare down into an empty pool, the water having been drained years ago and replaced with rats, dirt and mold crawling up and down the edges.

A single snort draws their attention away from the swimming pool and towards the trio standing behind them.

They all watch as (Y/N) clutches her stomach, her knees wobbling slightly as she forces her laughter down. "They were so serious!" She manages to say, before throwing her head back and letting out a long sigh to calm herself down.

She faces the two embarrassed teens, her hair bouncing as she smirks at them. "At least you still have a good sense of humor, Rin." She laughs, and watches as the Maroon haired boy clicks his tongue before hopping down from the board and begins to walk away, his cheeks burning red.

"What the hell.." he grumbles, and leaves Haru standing on his own board to go collect his scattered clothes.

The group watch as Rin finals his jersey over his shoulder before picking up an all too familiar trophy. "You losers come to dig this up?" The award looked as new as the day they had all won it, its ribbon still neatly tied and the material shining bright.

"I don't need this thing anymore, you want it, it's yours." (Y/N) doesn't miss the way he grips the trophy one more time in his palm, before walking away and letting it clatter to the floor.

Her chest stings when Makoto and Nagisa rush to grab it, and her annoyance increasing tenfold when Rin disappears back into the shadows without another word.

The honey haired boy whines slightly before turning around, the trophy cradled in his arms as he approaches (Y/N). "He's not at all like I remember.." The (E/C) girl watches her friend's disappointed expression, and sighs before patting his head. "No.." she begins, and turns to stare at the direction her old friend disappeared through.

"He's not.."

"He's an asshole! That's what he is!" The group had since went home after the eventful evening, before meeting up back at school the next morning to discuss what exactly had happened. (Y/N) sits crossed legged on the grass just outside their classrooms, Haru's head resting in her lap.

The boys all listen as she rambles on, munching angrily on a piece of bread while her cheeks begin to turn a slight shade of red from how frustrated she was. "I mean that's not at all the Rin I remember!" She concludes, before turning and listening as Nagisa chimes in.

"It doesn't make any sense, Rin never used to act like that." Haru hums from his place, and opens his eyes slightly to stare up at (Y/N).

"..lookalike." He mumbles, and winces when the young girl purposefully drops a piece of her bread onto his forehead at his words.

"He just happens to know who we are and challenge you to a race?" Makoto bluntly asks his sleepy friend, which only causes Haru to turn over and push his cheek into (Y/N)'s leg.

He grabs the piece of bread from his head and flicks it away before closing his eyes and settling down to sleep. "Fine, a ghost." He dismisses the topic once more, this time receiving a poke in his cheek from the girl.

"But he was solid?" Nagisa asks. "Fine an evil Doppler ganger." This time (Y/N) simply sighs and rests her hands atop Haru's head, and listens to what her other two friends have to say.

"Oh like in the old days!" Makoto speaks up with a smile. "It's a game that we played as kids." He turns to (Y/N), and the two form their hands at their sides with wide grins. "Super-fusion doppelgänger !" Nagisa sighs loudly at the two, already grown bored of the conversation while Haru swats them away with his hand.

"Don't fall asleep!" (Y/N) yells, and quickly gets up so Haru's head rolls off her lap and onto the grass. Said boy couldn't care less and continues his nap while Makoto and the young girl try to get him interested in the conversation.

Nagisa scratches his cheek and stares up at the two, "What were we talking about again?" He asks cheekily, and Makoto tries to chop the top of the boys head with his hand. "You guys!"

(Y/N) watches the two with a small smile, happy to see the tension from last night quickly disappearing as if it never happened. The sound of chatter makes her turn her head towards two familiar girls standing just a few feet away from them, conversing but very clearly talking about them due to the not too subtle staring.

She begins to pick her hand up to wave at the Maroon haired girl once more, but watches in defeat as the girl turns to yell something at her friend before walking away. She leaves (Y/N) with her hand midway in the air, making this her second time being rejected by the girl she was just trying to say hello too.

'Am I that unlikable?!' The question rings in her head a few more times, and causes (Y/N) to turn wobbly towards her friends, her head pulled down dejected.

Makoto looks up and tilts his head in question. "(Y/N)?" He asks, and sweat drops when she picks her head up and comical tears stream down her face.

"Pretty girls don't want to wave at meee!" She whines, and the brown haired boy jerks back at the statement, slightly weirded out at his friend.
