dial tone
Rin's fingers thud impatiently against the hollow suitcase. Boarding calls for other flights echo in the background; he checks briefly, and ignores. "japan airlines flight 5840, non-stop service to hong kong..."
Dial tone still. "c'mon haru."
On cue --
"hi." Curt.
"hey, haru. how's it going?" Rin sees Haru staring off into space, probably in his tub.
"okay -- " he pauses briefly " -- you?" The water sloshes as Haru repositions himself.
A sigh. "i thought i told you not to answer the phone while in the water! you'll destroy your phone." Another sigh, and silence.
"yeah, you did." Haru looks askance again.
Rin laughs, and looks around uncomfortably at the other nearby travelers. "i suppose it's unfair of me to ask that of you. i know you feel most comfortable in water." Haru won't respond, but Rin says it anyway. A beat, and then, "so, uh, haru, i'm calling because, uh." Rin stutters, mouth drying. "as you know, i'm moving to australia to train. and you know this too, but my plane leaves today."
"have a safe flight, rin."
"i will! but i am really calling you because -- " and a pause and a do it rin in his head and "because i wanted to thank you for all you've done for me. you provided me with a true rival and a true friend as a kid, and you brought me out of the funk i was in when i came back from australia. you pushed me to places i wouldn't have found on my own. so, thank you." He chokes a bit on the end while swallowing the last unspoken words.
There’s a long pause on the other end before Haru says, "i... thank you, too. i was stuck. and it was you that propelled me forward." It's not what Rin wanted, but any emotion from Haru is a victory. Rin smiles.
"i'll see you in the water again. we'll compete in the olympics. we'll compete in the world championships. our dreams will come true. whenever you hit the pool with that spark in your eyes, i know i'll see something i'll never forget." Rin rambles, searching for words.
"yeah. we'll race again." Haru’s voice is smooth again.
"but i suppose i ought to let you go. my flight is leaving in forty minutes and we're boarding soon. good luck and i," and another pause and another do it rin and another swallow and "wish you the best of luck."
"take care."
"bye." The dial tone sounds again as Rin hits end. He finishes his sentence under his breath.
"good luck. i love you."

hi idk how this turned into porn i'm so sorry, this is also my first time writing porn outside of an RP I'M SO SORRY DSKJGLKSJGDSLKJGD
lips crash against each other like lightning meeting earth. rin lets out a moan of pleasure as his best friend deepens the kiss, his shoulders tensing as haru’s hands grab hold of them and shove him onto the bed. they’re both smiling into each other’s mouths, he can feel it. it’s been so long since they last saw each other that even haru can’t hold his smile far from his lips: it’s difficult to get a hold of your best friend when you’re living in different countries and training for the olympics. rin is the first to break the connection, pulling away to gaze upon his best friend.
“it’s been a while, haru.”
two pairs of nimble, rough fingers make quick work of each other’s shirts. rin traces against haru’s pecs, mapping out every memorized curve and line, while haru quickly dips a pair of hands down the sides of rin’s jeans. rin moans once again, relishing in the sensation of familiar hands on his hipbones, haru’s grip steady and strong while he rubs rough circles into rin’s flesh.
he crushes his lips against haru’s again, rougher, faster, every fibre of his body wanting more. haru gnashes his teeth against rin’s bottom lip, sending peals of excitement coursing down his spine; rin reciprocates by toying with haru’s nipples with his thumbs and forefinger. their motions are known but not memorized, well-practiced but fluid. rin reaches down and bites the space between haru’s shoulder and neck, fingernails digging into the skin of haru’s back.
rin tries his best not to squirm too loudly while haru deftly unbuttons the button holding his trousers up, pulling his jeans down once and for all and following with his boxers. now he definitely can’t resist moaning, not while haru’s deft hands are massaging the area around rin’s crotch, teasing the area around the beginnings of an erection with that bemused look in his pool-blue eyes. he’s so easy, easy for haru. this is friendship, isn’t it? they’re best friends. best friends who sometimes kiss and occasionally, when they haven’t seen each other in a long time, fuck. rin’s breath hitches in his throat, trying to ignore the pulsing sensation in his cock as he speaks.
“j- just boys being pals, huh? bros being bros.”
haru rolls his eyes at the statement before pressing his lips to the tip of rin’s erection. rin’s back arches with arousal and he digs his fingernails into the bed, squeezing his eyes shut. they are friends, yes. to say “just” friends would be doing it a disservice too: that would imply that their friendship meant anything less than the years they’d spent swimming and training with each other, both together and apart. haru laves his tongue around rin’s cock and rin lets out a gasp.
he knows that haru knows that they are more. rin's okay with this for now.

It was hard, having to do this again.
Rin looked pretty similar the first time he was going to Australia, too…
But Haru knew he’d be happier this time. He could tell, from that radiant smile, from the light in his eyes. He looked hopeful.
“What’s that face for, Haru?” Rin asked, giving him a smirk.
Haru turned away, his cheeks reddening slightly. “I’m not making a face.”
“You are.”
“I’m not.”
“Aw, are you gonna miss me, Haru?” Rin said, practically singing and smirk still going strong as ever.
Despite not wanting to give Rin the satisfaction, a quiet “yes” ended up slipping from his mouth before he could turn away, face burning and not meeting Rin’s gaze.
“…Hey, Haru?”
Haru stayed quiet, slightly shifting his feet on the tiled airport floor.
“Haru.”
And despite the crowds of people in the departure lounge around them, Rin moved even closer, cupping Haru’s chin in his hand and lifting his face ever so gently.
“…What…?” Haru grumbled embarrassedly, still not looking Rin in the eye.
“I-I’m going to miss you too, Haru.”
Surprised by Rin’s muffled-sounding words, Haru finally locked eyes with his boyfriend.
…Only to see his eyes growing a bloodshot red, tears prickling in the corners of them.
Haru gave a sigh, gently wrapping his arms around Rin (which wasn’t an easy task, considering the huge backpack on his shoulders).
“Don’t cry, Rin,” he muttered into his shoulder, not sure if Rin had even heard him through the din of the airport.
Rin gave a weak chuckle, hurriedly rubbing his sleeve over his eyes before wrapping his arms around Haru. “Yeah, sorry…”
They stayed like that for a few moments, wrapped in each other’s arms and breathing in each other’s scents, savoring it because they both knew that, being professional swimmers who lived oceans apart, they couldn’t be like this all the time. But Haru wasn’t worried about that. He knew that, as long as both he and Rin kept swimming, they would definitely see each other again.
Inhaling one more time, Haru finally let go of Rin, who didn’t seem all that pleased about it.
Haru smirked. “You’re the one making a face now.”
“I’m not!” Rin sputtered, cheeks tinging red.
“You…you should go now. You’ll be late,” Haru said, his smirk quickly fading away.
“You’re pouting again, Haru,” Rin said, quickly pressing a kiss to Haru’s cheek.
Haru looked away, because yes, he knew he was pouting, but what was he supposed to do about it? After all the times he’d had to say goodbye to Rin, Haru thought it’d get easier. Truth be told, it was still just as hard. It was hard saying goodbye to someone you loved, even if you knew you were going to see them again.
“Well, I’m off now!” Rin gave Haru a quick little hug before letting go, smirking. “Don’t slack off because I’m not there, Haru. You’d better keep up you’re timings, or I’m gonna beat you!”
Haru couldn’t stop a small smile from forming on his lips. “We’ll see about that.”
“Oh, we’ll definitely see!” Rin said, waggling his tongue the slightest bit before turning around, pulling his suitcase over to the check-in area. They’re eyes met one more time before Haru lost sight of Rin in the crowd, but he could’ve sworn Rin had been smiling.
Haru sighed, turning in the opposite direction and walking towards the airport’s exit. He felt that lingering sadness, of course, but he also felt something else. This…hopefulness. He knew Rin was swimming, and he knew Rin was happy, and that was honestly enough.
He’d wait until he saw Rin again.
(Hahh, this is probably the shittiest thing I've ever written :'D)

in this dark room, rests two souls
the moon’s luminous presence
acts as the only light source
soft inhalation and exhalation
of respire, a comfortable rhythm
a peaceful still-painting, only
soiled by morning’s departure
the lax grip tightens in anticipation
sleep waves decrease their amplitude
bringing them back to reality
overturned suitcases and bags
stuffed with sweats and hoodies
lay on the floor, to be packed away
daybreak threatening over the horizon,
and yet for this relaxed atmosphere
one occupant of the room wishes
for the moon to not yield to the sun,
to extend their time together
oh how lucky one could be
to have someone that makes
saying goodbye so hard.
