Bromance: Singles unite! Forget the mush, your character invited mine over. How does the evening go?
The relay had taken most of the energy out of the swim team; Gou being no exception. Seeing all of their hard work paid off brought her to the verge of tears. It was so amazing, watching the four boys swim together. They finally swam free.
However, reuniting them had come at a price: the newest member who had yet to perfect the butterfly gave up his position in the relay for the sake of the team. He, like everyone else, wanted Rin to reunite with them. The younger Matsuoka was quite impressed with his decision, and figured it would be best to reward him in some way.
After much begging and pleading, Rei finally agreed to visit the redheads house for an “important meeting”. She wouldn’t tell him what it actually was, of course. It wouldn’t be fun if it wasn’t a surprise! Besides, he would never agree to do something so childish, so Gou kept the night’ spans under wraps.
“Ah, Rei-chan! Come in!” The girl called from within the house, as she was still busy preparing the room for his arrival. Hearing the scrape of the door sliding, she huddled to the hallway, quickly pulling him in. As she lead him to the living room, she lightly pushed him onto their couch, which Rin had got from Australia as a present, and then quickly hurried to the kitchen. As quickly as she left, she returned, placing a warm mug in the boy’s hands before resting on the sofa. “It’s this drink called ‘Milo’. Onii-chan got it for me! It’s like hot chocolate, but better!” She chimed, then turned on the television.
The rest of the afternoon was spent watching movies, building pillow forts, and throwing paper airplanes at each other. The perfect after-party.
