Missing From My Life
Summary: AU. Barely able to pass High School, Dame-Tsuna could never keep a job for long due to his uselessness but despite all that, he had found a great use for his strangely good intuition. Gamble. [Pairing undecided]
Prologue
Walking down the evening street, Tsuna silently contemplate his life once again. He had been fired from his latest job for over a week now and had no luck in finding a new one. Barely surviving on his small savings with the month ending, he had to find some money quick before the landlord of his tiny apartment start scolding and threaten to kick him out again. He mentally cringed at that thought.
Turning to a corner of the street, he head towards a place where no normal citizen would have known and entered a seemingly plain building with tinted glass door in the darken alley.
He had found this place purely in coincidence when he was running away from the loan sharks that was chasing him for a loan he din't even borrow. He swore he will NEVER sign another paper again without reading it over repeatedly and detailly no matter who gave it to him. Damn colleague. He had dodge into this building in an attempt to hide from them. Miraculously they cease their chasing and only stood outside swearing colorfully. Not risking going out at that moment, he began wander deeper into the building that look so vastly different from the plain building outside.
Hallways floored by red plush carpet, walls filled with expensive looking pictures and beautiful mirrors, drawn ceilings with exaggerate chandelier and towards the end of it, a grand oak door.
The day when he found this place, Lady Luck must have been shinning on him. Perhaps too much and had gotten him too much attention that is better without.
Even after getting kick out of that place accused of doing something he din't do and with a pocket emptier than it has been, for the first time in his life, he feels alive. Finally, he had found a place where he can be great and belong.
He haven't dared to come back here until now with the last of his savings..
Looking over to the decorative mirror, he consciously check his wig to see if its out of place. Straightening his best suit once again, he mustered all his calmness and walk towards the door where the bellboy already awaits.
Yes, this is a do or die situation. With that in mind he open his eyes not noticing the change in color.
