A/N: While I should be updating all of my other stories, I have absolutely no idea and no inspiration to do so. *uses Tsuna as a shield* So please, don't kill me, but I had to write this. It was practically begging me to...so without furthur ado...the disclaimer.
All: ...
Ahem...?
Tenten: *sighs* Since I'm your favorite...Illienexis does not own Naruto or Katekyo Hitman Reborn. Otherwise, Team Dosu would have been fully playable in Storm Generations.
DAMN STRAIGHT!

-Tenten's POV-
Middle School. A place where kids ranging from age 12 to 15 spend eight hours in an 'educational' center.
Or, where kids can temporarliy relieve boredom for a few hours by goofing off.
Iruka-sensei's class was somewhat strange (seeing as we had the bloodthirsty Hibari Kyouya as class rep), but not as weird as Kakashi-sensei's.
Having the pleasure of having two kid prodigies in one class (though Mukuro and Hibari could arguably become ones themselves), Kakashi-sensei's class was the most advanced sixth grade class our school had seen since Itachi's year. Our class was the most advanced seventh grade class of the year, seeing as we mostly stayed together in the years.
I turned around, to see that Zakuro was once again, asleep and not paying any attention to the lesson. On my left was Hyuuga Neji, the prodigy of our class; and on the right was Leviathan, an annoying kid who worshipped the ground Xanxus walked on. In front of me was Sakon, a somewhat cute guy (if you ignored that lipstick) who leaned on the emo side of the spectrum.
Sabaku no Temari, my best friend, was up at the board doing a pre-algebra problem on the board; something to do with proportions. Hibari was staring a little too hard at her, confirming everyone's suspisions that he may have liked her. Sabaku no Kankuro was glaring at Hibari (overprotective little brothers), while trying to block out Squalo's screaming.
Suddenly, a pencil flew through the air and smacked Squalo in the face, causing him to let out a loud scream of 'VOI!' No had to look to know it was Xanxus, mostly because those two (according to Tayuya) were stuck in a bad romance. I rolled my eyes. Sometimes, this class was so predictable.
"Thinking about something, Tenten?"
I jumped a little, not expecting Neji to speak to me like that. I turned to my second best friend and gave a small grin. "Nah, I'm okay."
He gave me a look that said, 'Yeah right, I'm so questioning you later' and turned to see Iruka-sensei trying to get Squalo to sit back down and stop screaming already.
Again, this class was so predictable.
o-o-o
Lunchtime was the time of day everyone liked. I was sitting at a table full of girls, but I didn't mind that much, seeing as they weren't being overly girly. Karin was daydreaming (about Sasuke, I bet), Sakura was eating a sandwich, Hinata was poking at a plum, Ino was turned the other way talking to Bel, Temari was arguing with Tayuya, Shizune was standing in the lunch line, Chrome was being quiet, Kyoko and Haru were eating cake, and Kin was currently napping on the table.
"So, anyone know who the blonds are over there?" Ino asked, now finished talking to Bel. Sakura tapped her chin thoughtfully. "I overheard them in the office when coming from the nurse. I think the girl is in Iruka-sensei's class, and the boy is in Kaka-sensei's class."
Turning to get a look at the new comers, I saw a two blonds, one with blue eyes and another with pink eyes and glasses. The boy turned and smiled at me, so I smiled back.
"Well, I think I know who Tenten likes~" Ino cooed. I turned back to them, shock on my face. "W-what?"
Temari grinned. "Yep. Love at first sight, huh?" I shook my head in denial. "No way! He's only a kid. I don't like him."
"Explain the silly-ass smile then," Tayuya demanded. I rolled my eyes. "I'm only being friendly. It's his first day."
"Hey Ten, who's that blond kid coming for you?" Kin muttered. Looking back, the blond boy was coming over to me.
"Excuse me, but doth thou know where Kakashi-dono's class is?" He said. From the corner of my eye, Ino and Karin had bitten their lips to keep from laughing. Tayuya was outwardly laughing, and Kin had slammed her head on the table again.
"Oh, well, I'm not in Kakashi-sensei's class. But Ino is!" Ino stared at me incrediously. "I'm in Iruka-sensei's class, so I'm a grade higher." The boy gave a tiny smile, then said. "My sister Oregano is in Iruka-dono's class. My name is Basilicum. And thee?"
A gave an akward grin. "I'm Tenten. Is it alright if I call you Basil?"
His smile got bigger, and brighter. "A nickname? I would be honored!" He grabbed my hand and placed a kiss on it. A blush made it's way to my face, and I could hear Tayuya's snickering. Picking up a plastic knife, I tossed it at her head, making her swear loudly in rage. Basil looked up in confusion. I smiled. "Don't worry, she does that all the time."
The dirty blond-haired boy nodded in understanding, and looked up when a call of, "Basil, we have to go pick up our stuff!" came from who I believed was Oregano. He turned to me and smiled. "Thank thee for thy help, Tenten-dono. I'll see you later!" And just like that, he sprinted back to his sister.
"You've got it bad," Sakura commented. My face went aflame again.
"Do not!"
And from that day forward, things would not be as predictable in my life again.
