Hello world! I was about to go to sleep one day when I came up with this story! XD so now, I finally took the time to write it out, hope you like it~

Akane Hiyori, the 16 year old girl with charcoal hair that reached up to her waist. She had bangs that covered half of her face on the left side. Her heterochromatin eyes were of the colors onyx and blazing red. Her outfit consisted of a jacket that stretched down to her knees and was black. It had a wide cut making it look almost like a cape at the bottom. Hiyori always wore a pink shirt that only had thin straps as its support to match the girlish style. To follow suit, it was worn with black short shorts and black sneakers; making the only noticeable item that didn't blend in with the whole outfit her shirt.

As amazing as her heterochromatin eyes were, they mostly held indifference, bitterness, or resentment to the world around her. A look that matched her personality. Hiyori was darkly cynic; it was impossible for her to think that someone was kind to her just for the heck of it. Her past had not been kind to her which enabled this kind of thinking into her head.

Nowhere to go, she was a wandering soul in the streets of Italy. Looking up were the gray clouds, looking down was the gray pavement. Everything was so boring. To the left of her were people talking to one another happily and it was the same on her right. It seemed like everyone was happy, everyone but her. As she walked down the busy path, she heard some pitter patter and felt some droplets on her head.

Looking up, a drop of rain hit her in the eye causing her to close both of them and blink a few times. As she looked around, she saw that people were huddling under the small roofs of shops. Others had umbrellas and were well on their way inside some place be it their home or anywhere else, just away from the outside. Hiyori soon felt the wind blow past her, causing her jacket to follow it's direction. She then felt the cold wind reach through her knee high socks, touching her skin. She frowned at the feeling of goose bumps rising.

"It's raining and it's cold… what a horrible combination…" Hiyori thought to herself as she finally remembered to put her hood on. It didn't make things too much better since it was partially soaked but it was better than nothing.

She kept walking one direction until she was at the entrance of a great forest. Mentally debating whether or not to go in the forest, she decided that she would since she has nothing to lose. After a great deal of walking, her eyes fell upon a snail that was leading three other smaller snails under a leaf.

She crouched down to get a closer look. "Nee, Mr. Snail, do you need some help?" Hiyori asked, not expecting an answer. When she saw that all four snails were under the leaf she assumed her aid was not required. Right after that thought, she sneezed. When her focus was averted, she sensed those chilling winds again.

"Ano, are you ok?"

Hiyori sharply faced the source of the sound. Who she saw was a tall, Japanese looking boy that had fluffy brown hair regardless of the rain. He had large caramel eyes and held a kind smile. He was also holding an umbrella. The boy's outfit consisted of a rather expensive looking suit. When Hiyori stood up, she felt rather short compared to him. She snapped out of her observation when she remembered she had a question to answer.

"I'm fine; you really don't have to bother."

"U-um, you should have my umbrella; you look colder than I do." The person said as he held out his umbrella and shielded her from the rain, exposing him to it instead. "Yeah, I wonder what is it you want in return." She thought hatefully, but she kept a straight face.

"I'm fine…" She said once more but the boy didn't look convinced. "Haha it's ok, here." He said as he took her hand gently and handed the umbrella to her. Hiyori stared at him a bit confused.

"You shouldn't give me this; I don't want to be in debt to you." She said indifferently as she held the umbrella back to him. Her gesture was rejected however when the boy backed away. "Oh! Don't worry it's fine! I have more umbrellas so you don't have to worry."

"But…" Hiyori trailed off.

"R-really, it's fine. You should keep it." The boy insisted.

"But it's yours…" She said bluntly. The boy sighed in defeat.

"Alright, how about this? You can keep it for now and return it to me when you don't need it anymore."

"But… Where do you live?" She asked, taking all of the precautions as to when she will return it in the future.

"Haha, umm, I guess you could say I live at a house near the ends of these woods." He answered.

"And where would that be?" Hiyori asked looking more skeptical by the second.

"Hmm…." The boy paused for a second. "Well, haha I don't know how to explain it. You can't miss it; I mean you would have to be blind to haha. Trust me, you'll find it."

Just when Hiyori was about to ask the boy his name, she heard an unfamiliar ringtone. She then used his umbrella as defense. "Just who is calling you?" She asked cautiously.

"U-um… I'm not sure" He answered as he took his cell phone out of his pocket to read the caller ID.

As the boy held the cell phone to his ear, he immediately ripped it away from it. Someone was yelling on the phone. Hiyori looked at the boy with curious eyes as he was making hand gestures while he was talking on the phone. While he was busy talking, Hiyori stared down at the umbrella. Now that she got a closer look at it, the umbrella was pale blue with cute orange fishes around the bottom rim. It was so cute. Hiyori almost laughed out loud when she remembered who owned the umbrella. She covered her mouth with her hand before she could let out a sound.

"HIIEE! A-am I really that late? I was just going for a walk!" The boy cried, after his conversion on the phone was over, he quickly closed his phone and shoved it back in his pocket.

"I-I'm sorry! I have to go now!" He said as he ran into the forest. Hiyori was shocked, she didn't move for a bit and then she something hit her. She didn't get his name.

Looking back up to the sky, she saw the clouds clearing and warm rays of the sun hit her face. When she felt it, she smiled for a few seconds before she was back to her indifferent expression. "Now it's too hot." Hiyori thought as she took off her jacket. As soon as she did that, she heard her stomach grumble.

Sighing, she placed the jacket on the side of her arm and closed the umbrella. Hiyori looked back at the forest one last time before she turned around to head back to the main streets of Italy. Her mind was now preoccupied with the unknown boy she just met.

Unbeknownst to Hiyori, that boy was Sawada Tsunayoshi. He was about to become the Vongola boss very soon and so he and a few of his guardians, mainly Yamamoto and Gokudera were in Italy for the summer. He was now 17 and everyone else were a year older as well. There was only one year before he would graduate from high school and become the Vongola boss. Ryohei did not want to go since he was busy with an upcoming boxing match. Lambo didn't want to go because he didn't want to be separated from Nana; He may have grown a year older but he was still a kid. Hibari did not go because of reasons unknown; but nobody was going to question him unless they wanted to be bitten to death. Chrome had kindly rejected as she explained how there were many things she wanted to do with Kyoko, Haru, and the guys from Kokuyo for the summer. There was immense pressure on him; mainly from the sun arcobaleno, Reborn, but he was still happy.

As he got closer to the Vongola estate, he looked up and saw that the gray clouds were now cotton white and were scattered. There was the blue sky hanging above it. He smiled for a bit before he started running again. Tsuna burst through the doors of the Vongola mansion and as a result of his rush, he slipped and fell. He groaned as he held his head. "I-ittai."

"Tenth!" Tsuna heard his storm guardian, Gokudera Hayato call out. Gokudera quickly helped his boss up as he asked him. "Tenth, where have you been?"

"Haha, sorry Gokudera, I was walking around and I saw this girl and it was raining and…" Tsuna trailed off a bit as he was trying to find the right words.

"What? Who is this girl Tenth? Did she do anything to you? I'll kill her!" Gokudera assured as he was about to get his dynamites out.

"No! She didn't do anything to me Gokudera! I just gave her my umbrella and that's why the suit is kind of wet but it'll dry." Tsuna explained.

"Oh hey guys, Tsuna why is your suit wet?" His rain guardian, Yamamoto Takeshi asked as he arrived at the scene. Gokudera groaned and Tsuna sighed.

Today was the second day of their summer vacation and their second day in Italy. Tsuna didn't go anywhere out of the house yesterday because of jet lag so he felt more adventurous today. What he forgot was that Reborn had told them that there was going to be a party for their arrival and so they had to dress and act their best. He thought there was time to spare before the event and so he took his umbrella and headed out. What Tsuna wasn't expecting was to give away his umbrella to an unknown girl.

Now he thought about her again. "Just who was that girl? Ahh! I forgot to ask her, her name!"

Just as Tsuna mentally slapped himself, Yamamoto looked up to one of the clocks on the extravagant walls. "Hey guys, we have about three minutes left." He said. "We better head to the main room." And with that, the three were off.
