Hey my first own fanfic that's not based on someone else's :] So yeah this story is really OOC in some parts, just a warning.

Tap… tap… tap…
A faint tapping noise echoed from the back of the library. I averted by eyes towards the sound without turning my head. The noise began to fade as my eyes trailed the walls of the library. It was too quiet now. I was one of three people in the empty room. Or so I thought.
I placed the book I was skimming down onto the table and checked my watch. Seven o' five… it's too early to go to class. I stood up and grabbed the book carelessly, throwing it up into the air as it spun once or twice. Quietly, I reached the end of the library and replaced it with another.
Tap… tap… tap…
The noise began again, only louder. The hollow sound came from my left side. I placed the book I was flipping through down on the shelf in front of me, too distracted to place it back. Quiet whispers could be heard from around the corner. I slowly peeked to find a set of couches with someone sitting on one. The boy was tapping his fingers on the night stand next to him.
I silently stared at his face. Silky black hair covered his face, most just his forehead. His eyes slightly slanted upwards and half- lidded. I've never seen him before… he was beautiful.
"Now Hibari, you understand what you are suppose to do… correct?" a mysterious voice questioned from the second couch. I looked around the room for the source of the voice.
"Hmph…" Hibari looked away with an annoyed expression. His eyes slowly trailed to where I was standing. Did he notice my presence?
"You need to cooperate," the unknown voice continued, "or this mission will fail."
"Tch…" There was a long pause. His eyes glared and burned right at me. "What do I get out of this?"
"You don't have to follow how we execute the plan," Hibari raised an eyebrow. "As long as the result is how I want it. I don't care what you do to complete your part." Hibari slowly nodded, not moving his gaze away from the seat in front of him.
I gathered the information I had just heard. This student, who I have never seen before is part of a plan that is going to take place at this school. It's not much information, so I was still confused.
Suddenly, the mysterious voice chuckled. "Seems like we've got an unwanted listener…" Hibari abruptly stood up with his eyes straight into mine. I quickly turned behind the bookshelf trying to catch my sudden harsh breathing. My eyes began to close, unable to keep them from tearing up. This feeling… it's intoxicating.
I turned to my left again to peek back at them, but found Hibari standing right next to me. I gasped as he lifted a metal tonfa in his right hand. Is that even allowed in a school library? Right as he swung it at me, I grabbed a book from the bookshelf behind me and blocked his attack. My right arm twitched in shock due to the book being paperback. I quickly threw the thin paperback at Hibari, trying to grab another. But he deflected the book with his tonfa and took his free hand to grab my right arm. He pushed me against the bookshelf, twisting my arm. I hissed slightly at the pain.
"What are you doing here for, herbivore?" He whispered into my ear. His voice has a deep hidden anger. My face felt hot has his been only inches away. A situation like this could make any girl faint.
"I'm here to read a book like all people do in the library," I hissed back.
"Listening to others talk isn't reading a book." He twisted my arm further. The pain began to burn in my shoulder and wrist.
"Hibari…" The unknown voice began, "Bring the intruder over here. I want to look at her." I'm an intruder? It's a library!
He released my arm and pushed me out into the opening.
"Please sit down…" I walked to the couch Hibari sat on earlier and took a seat. I looked over at Hibari who leaned against the wall and crossed his arm.
"You interested in Hibari?" I whipped my head towards the voice, about to retort, until what I saw caught my eye and immediately widened them. In the couch in front of me sat a toddler, maybe the age of 5 or 6. He looked at me with a smirk.
"So, what's your name?" I looked at him confused.
"Isabella…" I pushed my bangs behind my ears, trying to look serious.
"My name is Reborn and that is Hibari," he explained. I nodded in understanding. "Now I want to ask you, how much did you hear of our conversation?" I fidgeted my fingers.
"Enough to know you guys are planning something. All I heard was Hibari's part is important and that is all." I looked over at Hibari. His eyes were closed and made an annoyed expression.
"Interesting…" Reborn commented. He thought for a moment. His eyes were on me the entire time, scanning my entire body. It was disturbing. "Would you mind being in part of this plan too?"
Hibari immediately opened his eyes and glared at me.
"Uh…" I thought nervously for a moment. "Tell me about the entire plan and I'll think about it."
"We can't do that. You see… if you disagree to our plan, we can't have someone who knows about our plans running around, can we?" Reborn smiled.
"True…You make a good point," I smiled. "I guess I'll join" I caught Hibari made a painful expression, it saddened me a little.
"You're a curious person aren't you?"
"I guess you can say that." My smile grew wider.
"Good, so let me explain." Reborn motioned Hibari to come closer. Hibari ignored at first but walked over and stood behind me. "Now what you probably don't know is there are mafia members hidden in this town." I shook my head. My parents probably mentioned it before, but I most likely wasn't paying attention.
"All members of the mafia have a child who will succeed their mafia positions and all of them go to this school."
"Well what does this have to do with you and Hibari?"
"Well, Hibari is a guardian of the Vongola family." I sat in shock.
"HE'S IN THE MAFIA?" I nearly screamed while pointing behind me. Hibari's expression towards was more annoyed than angry, but you can tell he's angry at me for that question.
"Correct." The child chuckled. I still couldn't believe I was talking about the mafia to a five year old. "And I am the mafia boss' tutor." I was speechless with wide eyes. A baby as a boss' tutor was brand new news to me.
Once I got my voice and mind back together, I looked at Reborn cheerfully. "Are the other members of this family here too?"
"Yes, every guardian transferred to this school today. I'd like you to meet them later, since you are part of the plan now." I nodded in agreement.
"Now these children of the mafia are pretty dangerous. They've had intensive training years earlier than our young boss. Our task sent out by the current boss is to befriend them and make them our allies as soon as possible.
"So what am I doing?"
"Your job will be identified later," Reborn smirked. Hibari scowled at his smirk. "For now you will be partnered with HIbari, and since you're going to be part of this, you'll need to stick close." I hesitated to react but in my peripheral vision HIbari faintly nodded. Hibari seemed to accept me as a partner, so I nodded enthusiastically.
"Good. Hibari, you have meeting with the others in room 223. Isabella, please go too. We're going to be identifying the members of the other mafia."
"By the way, what's their mafia name?"
"They're called Dattero di Mare." I held back a snicker. The name was a little funny to me.
"Now let's go. I'll meet you guys there." Reborn jumped off the couch and walked into the maze of bookshelves. Just like that, he was gone.
"Let's go, herbivore." I got up and followed Hibari out the door. He swiftly walked a few paces ahead of me. I stared at his form, his back, his hair…everything looked perfect. I've only met him for about an hour… but…
I want you to love me.
