The sun glazed through the curtains as the wind moved the trees in a groove. Birds chirped in the early morning and soft voices were heard outside, many families up and about as they were preparing for the day. Now, not everyone was up and outside enjoying the fresh air. As many know, there are couch potatoes, bats, leaches, etc. But these are metaphorical.
Somewhere in a house in a well known town in Namamori, lived a boy with his mother. He really didn't like doing work and spent his days locked in his room playing his favorite games while his mother tells him he's going to die of laziness, but he doesn't believe that. Sure he might get fat but he'll lose it somehow. So at 7:00 in the morning, the boy quietly opened the door to his room and stepped out, the wood creaked loudly as he moved to the staircase.
Wincing at his movements, he quickly walked the steps and headed towards the kitchen, flicking the light on and jumping as he saw his mother holding a cup of hot tea. She sighed and walked over to the fridge and opened it, grabbing a water bottle and tossing it to her son. "You know it's a school day right? Your last day to be exact so hurry up and get ready. Today after school I'm taking you somewhere."
The brunette just stared agape at his mother and nodded, rushing back upstairs and pulling on his school clothes and quickly saving his game then turning to off. Quickly he did his morning routine and washed his hands, flinching when he looked at his reflection, How long was he up? Oh well, he survive. Probably.
Jogging back downstairs, he popped a toast in the toaster and grabbed the jam from the fridge. His mother sat on the table and munched on her toast and eggs, flipping the newspaper as she glanced up at her son. Sighing, she handed him his bento and smiled softly as he kissed her forehead, muffling a goodbye as he placed his breakfast back in his mouth.
The teen rushed of to school as he opened his satchel and placed his bento in, running as if his life depended on it. Though it really did since Adel was quite strict over uniform and everything else that was not in place.
"Tsuna!"
A familiar voice yelled as the brunette neared the entrance of Nami High school. Smiling he greeted his friend as they gave each other a secret handshake. "Hey Enma," the two walked alongside one another as they headed toward homeroom and sitting in their seats, which were next to each other.
"Hey Tsuna, have you heard of the 'Reborn!'?" The redhead said as he leaned closely, the chatters of students somewhat blocking his voice. The brunette nodded his head and was about to speak but was cut off by the teacher coming in and hitting the board with a ruler, signalling everyone to quiet down.
"Alright class, Do page 27 number 1 though 10 for your warm up and we'll check it in 30 minutes."
The class was quiet, not including the various taps of the pencils. The brunette sighed as he finished almost 4 of them but wasn't completely familiar with diamond method or how to switch the numbers from positive to negative after the problem. So the boring yet frustrating class period droned on and the sun was now placed in full view to were birds chirped from the windows, making some look over and smile tiredly. Suddenly the bell rang for the next class and the kids stayed seated while the teacher readied their stuff and moved out and students groaned as a familiar science teacher entered.
Tsuna starred blankly at the board as 'Mr. Biology' talked about molecules and atoms and how they created the structure of life. God he hated the subject with all his passion but, he couldn't do anything but learn useless work for his future. Why the hell did they still teach even on the last day of school? Tsuna thought as he starred blankly at the teacher.
Finally after what seems like decades, the lunch bell rang and the sighs of all the students were heard as they chatted among themselves.
"I thought that would never end!" Enma sighed loudly as he stood up and stretched. The sound of the chair skidded across the floor while Tsuna nodded and pulled up his satchel that held his lunch. "You know, i feel like my mother will finally reach her limit from me sitting on my ass all day in front of the screen." The brunette opened his bento and sighed in delight from the smell, "True, i know Adel is threatening to take away my games if i keep at it with the nights of no sleeping and all, plus Koyo is getting on my nerves calling me a lazy potato and saying i'll grow mushrooms out of my head if i keep at it."
Enma opened his bento and pulled out his chopsticks and took a bite of his cut salmon. "Hey Tsuna, about the game i mentioned earlier, you should really look into it. It's so awesome! It's rated 5/5 stars on Nami-Feed!" Caramel colored eyes looked up and widened, "Ah crap!" The redhead flinched slightly as he saw his friend fist his forehead and sat there worried. "What happened Tsuna?" "My mom wanted me to go with her somewhere after school and it sucks because last week i promised we'll catch up on Mortal combat- I really wanted to kick your ass!"
Enma chuckled and shoved the other, "As if you could ever beat me, i'm the master at Raiden!"
...

The day dragged and it was finally the end of school as Tsuna departed from his beloved best friend, they then discussed they'd rearrange the game night for next week. The sun perched in the distance as Some birds fluttered through the air, Giving off cooling shadows from time to time. Nearing his humble abode, the lights were on, signalling mama was indeed home since her shadow moved across the place, what was she doing? Probably mother things.
The brunette took out his key and unlocked it and mumbled a 'I'm home' while taking off his shoes in the entryway. Though he heard no response, he sorta shrugged it off and carried on into the kitchen and retrieved a to-go milk box from the fridge and closed it with his hip as he punctured the straw and took a sip. "Mom?" Tsuna said out loud while walking toward the living room. Where was she? he thought to himself but screamed out loud as his mother stepped out from behind the wall, giggling to herself.
"Don't do that mom!" Tsuna said while his face heated up from embarrassment, who wouldn't? He was scared by his own mother! Nana laughed to herself and reached over to the bag and hid the object behind her back. "I'm sorry Tsu but it was probably the only chance i could get to see you scared. Oh how i remember your first time being scared, your father came behind you while you were watching TV on the floor and you screamed so high and wet yourself!"
"Mom!" The brunette yelled as he felt his face heat up more and looked anywhere but his mother, god she was embarrassing but that's the only thing he's got and he's thankful for that. "Oh alright Tsu and Surprise!" The light hared brunette outstretched her hand and Tsuna gaped as he saw the cover.
"Oh my god," he muttered to himself and slowly grabbed it, admiring the game before his eyes. "Oh my god mom! Do you know that everyone has been talking about it along with Enma! They say it's been the best game of the year!" Nana smiled as her son shook visibly as excitement coursed through his veins. He seriously couldn't believe it, he had to call Enma!
"But that's not all Tsu, i'm taking you to that gaming center tomorrow you've always wanted to go to and you could invite Enma if you want."
A yelp as heard along with a laugh as Tsuna hugged his mother, almost tumbling over as he did it. He really couldn't explain how happy he was at the moment but hell he knew that the smile plastered on his face wouldn't disappear for nothing. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, mom!" The older brunette giggled and patted her sons head. "Now let's go get some sushi and enjoy ourselves?" Tsuna smiled and nodded, placing the game on the table and dragging his mother out the door.
"Let's go!"
As they left through the front door and locking it, the game glistened in the moonlight as the eyes of the characters looked at the door and back into place. They've waited for too long.
