Chapter Text
When Ai signed up for swimming, he never considered the fact that one, he was the smallest person he knew and two, no one willingly signed up for the swimming class and it was extremely small. Heck, he only signed up because he needed more credits. He had somehow convinced his friend Makoto to sign up with him, probably because Makoto was to kind to say no to him.
As it turns out, the class was indeed small. In fact, only two other people signed up for the class besides him and Makoto. He found this out from his roommate, Momo.
"Hey, you signed up for the swimming class, right? You and Makoto?"
"Yeah, I did. Why? Regretting you didn't sign up with me?" Ai teased. He had begged Momo for days to do so, but he persistently declined.
"No, not ever gonna regret that," Momo laughed, "but, I did hear a rumor that some people were forced to join, or else they would be kicked out."
"Of the dorms?"
"Out of the school." Ai's eyes widened a little. What did these people do to be in this much trouble? Ai suddenly really wished that he never signed up for the class.

"Makotooo," Ai moaned through the phone. "I don't wanna go to swimming anymoreee." He suddenly light up with an extrordianry idea, in his opinion. "Why don't you go to the first class and tell me how it is!"
"Ai, don't be scared of a little rumor, they can't be that bad," the older tried to reassure the younger. "You know our school is strict with punishments."
"You're right," Ai still seemed wary. "But could you just check it out, just to make sure?" Makoto sighed.
"I can never say no to you, Ai."
"Yay! Makoto, you're the best!"
"Yeah, yeah. I'll tell you about it tomorrow, then. Talk to you later?"
"Thank you, Makoto! Bye bye!" Makoto hung up. Ai's worries lessened, but where still very much there. He was dreading the class, and it was bad enough that he had to attend two times per week, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
He signed and got up to make himself a cup of mint tea. Momo would be coming home soon and he wanted to spend his time the right way, by becoming a blanket burrito and watching a show.
