*Clever felt terribly awful, instead of staying seated she got up and went upstairs, changed then went in pool.
Immediately she dove when she surfaced her face was wet, at least no one could tell you were crying in a pool.*

*Hikaru didn't even notice that Keira was there. He didn't look up and he didn't indicate that he heard Keira walk up. He shook his head and stared at the ground as tears hit the leaves below him. Why did Clever like Akito more? Why was that? He spoke outloud, to himself he thought.*
What is wrong with me?

*At first, when Akito heard Clever leave, he was relieved. He couldn't face her. However, then he thought that she might be upset. He didn't want that. Keira had gone off to take care of Hikaru, but no one was comforting Clever. He remembered how upset she was last night. He stood up and went to the pool where he heard her diving in. He stopped in the doorway and looked at her.*
Are you alright?

*Keira was almost on the verge of crying herself. She didn't know what to do. He looked so heart broken and she took a few steps foward not stepping on any leaves. As she hears what he says, she couldn't help but try and comfort him the way he comforted her with her father and such*
N-Nothing's wrong with you Hikaru...

"...yeah.."
*It was clear in her shaky voice that everything wasn't all right. She kept her back turned so he wouldn't see.*

*Hikaru didn't hear Keira until she spoke. At the sound of her voice he froze. He couldn't handle her seeing him like this. He wiped his eyes dry and looked up at her with a fake smile. His eyes were red and it was clear he had been crying and was very upset.*
Oh, hey Keira...Didn't see you there...Um...Why are you here?

*Akito heard her words, but he also heard the truth in her voice. He walked towards the pool and stood at the edge. He sighed.*
You sure about that? ... You told him, didn't you?

*She sniffled for a second, feeling helpless. Clever nodded*

*Akito heard Clever sniffle and knew that she was upset. Without thinking he slipped off his boots, pants, jacket, and shirt and jumped in the water. It was the only way to get over to her right now. He swam over to her and got in front of her so he could see her face.*
I'm sorry...

*Keira frowns and takes a few steps forward*
I...am here to see if you're alright. I know you were crying, I heard and can see it in your eyes. You don't need to put on a fake smile for me. You know me well enough to know I am the queen of fake smiles so stop it before I feel like I am not needed by you...
*keira was stern in her words, but they were not designed to hurt him*

*Hikaru tried to laugh but he couldn't even fake that right now. He sighed and looked away. His voice sounded beaten down.*
Fine...I...Clever doesn't want me...I'm no good...Looks like there was a reason I've always been such a flirt! It is the only kind of affection I'll ever get, heh.
*He picked up a leaf and starting tearing it.*

*Clever met eyes with Akito, it surprised her that he was in the pool. Hadn't he bee afraid to get in the other day? Still she didn't feel very happy*
"I didn't want to 'urt 'im.."

*Akito wasn't nearly as afraid of the pool as he had been his first time in it, but he was still a little nervous. However, he needed to see Clever's face to see how she was really feeling. He sighed, unsure of what to do to help her.*
I know...but you had to be honest...which is good...He'll be alright, maybe it will take time, but he isn't weak.

*Keira's worst fears came true. Clever had turned him down. But why she wondered. Was it only becuase he wasn't her type? Or did Akito saying something about her wanting someone else mean anything. Keira thought of all these things and took another step forward so that the two were only a few feet apart. When she speaks, her voice was soft and you could tell she was sincere in everything that she was saying*
Well...It's...uh...hmm. I uhh, don't think of it that way Hikaru. You are good for anyone alright? So she doesn't want you? So what? It's her loss right? Not yours. There are a lot of other women out there that will think you are for them. You just haven't found them yet you know? I...I mean I know hat's hard to really believe right now. You know with everything that has happened. I know it's easy to just resort back to your old ways. I know this. You can't keep hiding behind your flirting Hikaru. Stop being so afraid of hurting. Everyone hurts. It just takes a real person to show that they are hurting and are willing to start towards healing. The way you're talking now is not healing, but I understand that you are hurt right now and you need to let it out. I am here for that if you need me. Or...you can cry alone and no one wants to cry alone Hikaru. Everyone wants someone there and I don't care who you are. So...this is why I am out here. To show that you don't have to cry or go through this alone....
*Keira's face was strong but a little sad. She was doing the best she could to make him feel better*

" it doesn't make me feel any less like a bad person..."
*Clever sighed as she continued to look at Akito, it was nice to have him there. *
