"So? You still have nothing to say? As expected from a stupid herbivore like you." the man said with annoyed mocking tone, glaring at poor boy in front of the black board. The brunette flinched and felt very uncomfortable when he heard his classmates laughing quietly, probably badmouthing him as always. He pressed his lips together, trying really hard to remember at least something from last class.

"Ehm, t-the e-equation….it's…-" he stuttered but still couldn't remember anything. He was just buying time but it was hopeless because this cruel teacher didn't fall for it.

"Stop pretending you're trying to remember when there's nothing in that empty head of yours." the math teacher clicked his tongue. "Herbivores like you should stop wasting their time playing games. Go sit down."

The brunette quickly rushed back to his desk and hid his face behind workbook. He was so embarrassed again! Seriously will this stop? He was sick of this horrible teacher and it was only two weeks since he came. How much longer must he withstand this? And why was he only mean like this towards him?! 'If this goes on like this I'll die for sure!' he thought.

Two weeks earlier…

"Tenth, good morning!"

"Good morning, Tsuna!"

The brunette turned to his friends waiting for him in front of his house and waved at them. "Good morning, Gokudera-kun, Yamamoto!"

"Have you slept well, tenth?" Gokudera asked him when Tsuna closed the gate behinds himself, smiling happily. The boy nodded and wanted to ask him too but as always Yamamoto said something he shouldn't, offending the bomber and triggering the argument again.

It was like this almost every morning. His private tutor Reborn would harshly wake him up, Lambo and I-pin - two kids who somehow ended up living in their house just like Reborn's supposed lover who was trying to kill him with her poison cooking, played around and made a mess out of his breakfast and if he wasn't late for school he walked there with his two friends who always argued because of stupid things. Well mostly it was a one-sided argument where Gokudera was the angry one and Yamamoto the laughing one.

Tsuna sighed and carefully touched Gokudera's shoulder. "Gokudera-kun, please, stop arguing with Yamamoto."

"But, tenth! It was him who started this!" the bomber pointed at the other boy. 'Like little kids...What am I? Mum?' Tsuna thought and shook his head, smiling nervously. "Does it matter? Please stop."

"Well if tenth says so…" Gokudera muttered and stabbed Yamamoto with his murdering eyes who obliviously grinned at him.

"By the way, you heard about the new math teacher, right?" Yamamoto looked at his both friends, who nodded.

"Who didn't?" Gokudera growled, still somewhat butthurt.

"I hope they will be nice." Tsuna mentioned quickly to hide bomber's bad mood.

"Hopefully the new teacher will be someone laid back." Yamamoto smiled at him.

"Well they will be here only temporarily so it doesn't matter, right?" Gokudera mumbled, frowning. Tsuna glanced at him but didn't say anything. His friend was right. The new math teacher was actually only a university student, training for being a teacher, so it meant it didn't matter what they will be like, if he's there temporarily.

The rest of the way to school was peaceful. Fortunately Gokudera's mood got better and luckily Yamamoto didn't anger him afterwards. In front of school they met Kyoko and her brother Ryohei, who greeted them way too energetically. Kyoko was nice girl and Tsuna really liked her for a while, all the time daydreaming about dating her and so on. However somehow his first love faded away with time and now she was a friend of his.

She smiled at him cutely, waving. "Tsuna-kun, good morning."

"Good morning, Kyoko-chan!" Tsuna returned her smile and blushed a bit. Even though he thought of her as only his friend he still got kinda nervous when she showed him that shiny angelic expression.

They went towards the entrance to the school and talked, enjoying their usual calm morning. It was boring but nice and Tsuna really liked mornings like these. Though most of the kids from school looked at him as if he was some useless bug which he probably was because he sucked at everything, he still had his friends, family and peaceful life without any conflicts and worries….well for now.

Parting their ways with Ryohei who went to his class, they headed to theirs. On their way Tsuna heard loud chatting and the main topic was of course their new temporary math teacher. no one really knew how long this so called teacher will teach them. Three months? Half of the year? Whole year? Well whole year seemed impossible because it's only training so there's no way they will be here for so long. 'Though it's a shame cause they can't be worse than our normal math teacher…' the brunette thought and sat at his desk, sighing.

The first class was literature so that meant the usual boring stuff as always. Almost falling asleep, the brunette shook his head and looked out of the window, wondering about the new teacher and praying for someone nice, kind and beautiful. When the class ended Tsuna's classmates got even louder. Excitement filled the whole room and the atmosphere couldn't get more nerve wrecking. Even Gokudera finally threw away his foul mood and looked really forward to seeing new face among teachers.

"I really hope it will be someone smart with whom I could talk about some interesting stuff! Not like the usual old fart who knows almost nothing about math!" the silver haired boy clenched his fist, his eyes sparkling.

"Hahah! Well I just hope it will be someone who's easygoing!" Yamamoto grinned with arms behind his head. "What about you, Tsuna? Wouldn't it be nice to have a teacher like that?"

"Well actually-"

"What a bullshit! Having someone who truly understands their stuff would be 100 times better!" Gokudera frowned at Yamamoto but his hateful expression immediately changed into puppy eyes when he looked at Tsuna. "I'm very sorry I interrupted you, tenth! I just felt that his stupid comment needed my answer. You can punish me however you want!"

"Hiee?! No! It's totally ok, Gokudera-kun!" Tsuna quickly calmed his friend and nervously rubbed his head. "Actually I agree with Yamamoto. Someone nice and chill would be alright with me." he admitted, upsetting the bomber.

"If the tenth says so then I guess it would the best…" Gokudera muttered with big self-denial. Tsuna wanted to say something but couldn't because of the bell.

Everyone returned to their seats, waiting dot the long-awaited new teacher. Finally the shifting door opened, letting inside two men. One of them was their class teacher and the other was a man no one recognized. No one said anything for a second because the man was unbelievably handsome. He wore elegant suit with purple shirt underneath, fitting him perfectly and showing everyone his strong and sexy physique. His dark sharp eyes scanned through whole class, piercing every student with stoic cold stare. Tsuna flinched when those eyes met his for a moment before they looked at another student. His mind couldn't work well as he gazed at the man whose messy black thick hair made his godlike beautiful face look even stricter. Just from one look he could guess that this man is no easygoing dude but dangerous carnivore.

Both men stopped in front of the blackboard and the class teacher, coughing a little, introduced the man before them. "Class, as you heard you will be getting new math teacher for this half of year. Let me introduce him - his name is-"

Suddenly the class teacher shut up when he noticed man's lifted hand. "I can introduce myself without your help so you can leave now. You're not needed here." he stated calmly, shocking everyone.

The teacher stared at him, unable of any reaction. Finally he got himself together and was about to say some angry comment but made up his mind when the man glared at him with eyes clearly telling to leave. He gulped and muttering something about good luck left. The class looked at the man and an excited murmur flew through whole room. Everyone was filled with disbelief and joy after the man humiliated their class teacher like that and couldn't think of anything but how happy they were to have someone so cool. However this atmosphere lasted only another second.

"Shut up!" the man said, watching them with deadly aura around him. Whole class immediately quieted down. It felt like the temperature dropped by few degrees. The man glared at them for a while before he turned around and wrote his name on the board. "My name is Hibari Kyoya. I'll be teaching your class for this half of a year. There are few rules you will obey so listen carefully because I'm not gonna repeat myself and who won't listen will be bitten to death."

"W-what? You can't do that! That's against-" A student who dared to say anything was silenced in an instant when Hibari appeared before him and with deadly speed swung his tonfa against him. He stopped his hand just few millimeters from boy's cheek.

"First - you are allowed to speak up only after I call on you and second - I don't care about your bullshit so keep it for someone who's stupid enough to listen to you, herbivore!" the skylark stated calmly. He turned around, going back before the blackboard. "Now listen, I won't tolerate latecomers so come on time or you will be bitten to death. Also I'm not gonna go easy on you so be prepared on every class I have with you. I'll call on some of you so don't try to slack off."

The whole class listened to the words of their new sensei numbly, too scared to say anything. Tsuna just watched him and couldn't believe how unlucky he was. He hoped someone nice would come but instead this teacher turned out to be total opposite. And now he even expects so much from them. 'I'm gonna die…"

"Alright, everyone understands, right? Break these rules and you'll be bitten to death." Hibari warned them and looking at each of them made sure they took him seriously. He didn't like talking so much but it seemed to him like the easiest way to make them understand cause all of them looked like pack of stupid herbivores. "Well then let's call on someone to review what you've learned so far."

The brunette gulped and automatically leaned down on his desk, trying to hide from this scary sensei. He definitely didn't want to be called on and the more he thought about it the more he wished to remain invisible from skylark's eyes. He knew that if he wants to have peaceful half of a year with this teacher he will have to blend in with the class as much as he can.

"Oi! You herbivore with that awful hair, come here!" Hibari glared at Tsuna, who flinched and panicky looked around himself, hoping sensei didn't mean him. The skylark sighed, annoyed. "You have 3 seconds."

"HIEE?!" Tsuna squeaked and quickly stood up but because of his sudden movement the chair fell on the floor, making loud noise. "Ah! Damn!" the brunette cursed and bent down, grabbing the chair hastily but when he straightened up he bumped into the desk behind him with his head. "Itteee…" he whined and heard his classmates laughing at him.

"There he goes, dame-Tsuna!" they mocked him and grinned. Hibari watched the whole scene and wondered if that herbivore was just overly nervous or extremely clumsy. Either way he was terribly slow. It irritated him.

"Get your ass here immediately!" he growled, scaring poor brunette. "H-hai!" Tsuna stuttered and rushed to the new teacher.

The skylark stared at him for a few seconds, still a bit confused about this peculiar animal in front of him. Even his look was kind of extraordinary - those gravity-defying spiky hair, small height for his age, big eyes with innocent stupid look, messy uniform and even behavior of his classmates towards him. What did they call him? Dame-Tsuna? Is he being bullied? Either way he doesn't look like the type who would do anything. He seems to be one of those whiny herbivores who can only call for help but do nothing on their own.

'Let's see if he can do anything.' Hibari thought and asked him to solve some easy logical problem. He noticed how the boy gulped and sweat-dropped. It was quiet and no one said anything. The brunette looked down with defeated eyes and Hibari knew he doesn't know the answer.

"You don't know the answer?" he tried to ask him and when the herbivore shook his head, he clicked his tongue, irritated. "You don't even know something so basic. What a simple-minded idiot. Anyone else who knows?"

Someone lifted their arm and when Hibari called on them, he glanced at Tsuna, who was on his way to his desk. He watched his back and felt something growing within him - feeling of anger and contempt for that particular herbivore. He despised him for being so stupid, wimpy, scaredy and easy to give up. Herbivores like him irritated him.

Hibari turned to the student before him while Tsuna sat at his desk, feeling completely humiliated in front of everyone. He thought that this was the worst but what he did knew was that the worst was just about come.

Hey there! :)

Sorry it took me so long to write another story. I was working on this one for some time even while I was publishing For the King I Love but somehow I lost an inspiration I had before and ended up not finishing it and taking this long "break". That's also why I didn't answer to some of your comments because I stopped checking my account completely. Well time passes by quickly and before I knew it here we are in the new year and without any new story...

Still I kinda missed writing so for now I hope you'll like this stupid fanfic :D it's probably not as good as the ones I wrote before and it'll be kinda smuty but I hope you'll still enjoy it at least a bit. I came up with this story while listening to my favorite band Cigarettes after sex and that's also why I named this whole story after the band. Try listening to their songs if you feel like it :) maybe you'll like them.

Well see you with the next chapter!
