Author's Note(s):
- Title comes from Matsuoka Rin's character song.
- This was inspired by a paragraph from High Speed! 2 (High Speed is the novel the anime Free! was based from and a second book - about Haru's life in middle school and Rin's life in Australia - was released at the same time the season 2 of anime came out. There isn't a complete English translation yet, but I saw bits and pieces from tumblr) where Rin's grandmother was talking to Souhei, Asahi's (Haru's new teammate in his middle school swim club) father, and Rin's grandmother revealed she has heard about Haruka Nanase, saying:

"Nanase’s the boy Rin went so far as to transfer schools chasing, after all. You can’t imagine how shocked I was when I heard that was the reason!"

My shipping heart exploded.
