She blinked, looking around.

"Um...Hibari-san?" She looked over at him. She had the T.V. on, though he paid no attention to it.
"Hm?" He looked up from the book that he was reading.
~mew~
"Ah?!" She jumped back as a small black bundle tried to climb onto the couch next to her.
~mew~
She blinked looking down at the big yellow eyes. "Hibari-san......is this...a kitten?" She picked him.
"Hm....it followed me home the other day..."
~mew~
It batted at Tsuna. "Do you want to play?" She got off the couch, placing the kitten on the floor. "Um.....let's see...." She looked around, trying to find something for it to play with. Why was this so hard? At her place there would be a million things for the kitten to play with, seeing as so many kids lived there. But here, it was so clean, and neat. "Hibari-san...." She looked up at him from the floor. "Is there anything that he can play with?"
He didn't answer. He just watched the small girl wave her hand back and forth as the small black kitten batted at it, trying to gnaw on it. A small, hardly visible smile appeared on his face, as he watched the small girl have fun. He really did hate not seeing that bright smile on her face, though he'd never admit it.
She played with the kitten for at least an hour, that big smile never leaving her face. Her eyes were big and bright again. She looked up from playing with the kitten when she heard a yawn. "Are you tired, Hibari-san?" She blinked at him.
"Are you coming?" He got up and walked towards the hall.
She jumped up, chasing after him. "But, Hibari-san...I don't have pj's..."
He walked into his room, but she stood outside. "Don't just stand there...aren't you coming in?"
She blinked at him. "Um...yeah..." She walked in shyly, still not believing that she was in Hibari's room. "Ah!" Another pair of clothing was thrown at her. "Um...Hibari-san?"
"They were mine too..." He walked out after getting what he needed. He closed the door behind him for the small brunette.
She blinked, holding out the pieces of clothing that she got from him. "Are these even going to fit...or are they just going to be too big like the rest of the stuff he gave me...." She sighed. "Oh well..." She unzipped the sweater, pulling it off of her. She then undid the pants, pulling them down her small legs and past her feet. She picked up the pajama bottoms that were given to her. "Why am I not surprised?" She sweatdropped. The bottoms were black. She pulled them on, tying the drawstring so that they wouldn't fall off. She then pulled the t-shirt over her head, tossing it to the side for now. She held up the shirt, which was also black. What a surprise. She placed it back on the bed in front of her. She brought her hands to her back, unclipping the clips to her bra. She pulled it off, placing it on the ground. She then picked up the shirt, which had long sleeves, pulling it over her head. She placed her arms through the armholes. "I knew it...." She looked down to see herself. The pants went a little past her feet and the shirt's sleeves went passed her hands again, just like the sweater did.
She walked to the door and opened it. She looked out. No one was there. She walked out, going back to the living room. "Um...Hibari-san...." She walked into the living room to see him reading again. He looked up for a second before going back to the book. "What do I do with the clothing you gave me?"
"Keep it, you do need something to wear tomorrow."
"Alright...um...where am I sleeping?" She blinked cutely at him.
"Take my bed..." He didn't look up this time.
"But...where are you going to sleep?" She looked away blushing. Did he just say that she was going to sleep in his room?
"Here." He looked up at her from behind his book. "Why?"
"J-just wondering...." She couldn't tell him that she asked because she was afraid of the dark and didn't want to be alone.
"Hm." He went back to reading.
~Tsuna-chan! Tsuna-chan!~
She looked up, seeing Hibird land on her head. "Um, where were you all night?" It's true. She didn't know where he was. Once she started playing with the kitten, she lost sight of him.
"He was with me." She jumped. She wasn't expecting him be listening, let alone speak.
"Oh..." She looked up, seeing that the small yellow bundle had fallen asleep. She giggled lightly, looking beside Hibari.
"Hm? What's so funny?" She shook her head. She smiled. It looks like Hibari-san wasn't that bad a person after all. There was a small black bundle curled up on the pillow that was next to the Cloud Guardian.
She let out a small, cute yawn. "Well, I'm going to go to bed, Hibari-san." She turned to leave the room. "Good night, Hibari-san...."
He didn't look over. "Good night, herbivore...."
She blushed, running off to his room. She walked into the room, closing the door behind her but not all the way, just in case Hibird wanted to leave. She walked over to the bed in the room. 'I can't believe I'm sleeping in Hibari-san's bed...'
It was late, but not that late. She looked over at the clock that was on the table next to the bed. 12:30am. She sat up, clinging to the blankets. "Why's it so dark in here?" She thought out loud. She looked over at the window, remembering that the curtain was closed. "Maybe I should open them......" Though she didn't want to. The curtains were further away from the bed then the door was. She really did want to go and get Hibari, but she was afraid to, looking back at the first time 'she' woke him up. She didn't want to get bitten to death, but she didn't want to be in the dark even more.
She took a deep breath, before she stood up. 'Alright....I'm sure he'll under stand....." She opened the door quietly, walking down the hall, trying not to wake him before she got there. "Um....Hibari-san...." She poked her head around the corner where the entrance of the living room was. She paused for a moment before going any further.
She smiled softly, admiring the sleeping prefect. He didn't look scary in his sleep. He actually looked....nice? Was that the word to use? Was Hibari-san nice? She shook of that thought and walked in quietly. Little did she know that he was already awake. In fact, he's been awake since she left his room.
She walked over to the couch that he was on, the kitten was now more or less sharing the pillow with him and Hibird who had joined them not too long ago.
"Hibari-san....."
His eyes snapped opened, though he didn't look angry. "Hm?"
"Ah! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to wake you!" She apologized. "Please don't bite me to death!"
"What do you want?" He sat up, making the kitten fall inwards, taking the spot where his head once was.
"I'm sorry! I really didn't mean to wake you!"
"Too late for that one...." He said, a yawn escaping his mouth.
She blinked. "You mean, you aren't mad at me?"
"I was awake once you left my room..." He yawned again. "I knew you were coming..."
"What do you mean!? It's not like I came her because I couldn't sleep because I'm afraid of the dark!" She tried to defend herself. "Cuz you know, that's not why I'm here!"
"Hm? Then why are you?" He smirked, already knowing he was right.
She went to open her mouth to answer but couldn't think of anything that didn't make her sound like more of an herbivore than she already was. "I've got nothing....." She replied, disappointed in herself.
"Thought so...."
"Um....Hibari-san...I was wondering......" She looked away, her face was a deep shade of red. 'Am I really going to ask him this?'
"Hm?" He was starting to look annoyed.
"Well....could you.......you know......sleep in the same room as me......and it's not because I'm scared or anything...I just......want the company....." Her face was even redder now that she had actually just asked it.
"If you're not scared, then what is it?" He asked mockingly, yawning once again.
"Like I said......the company..." He had to believe that, right?
He rolled his eyes at her, walking down the hallway towards his room. When the kitten noticed he wasn't there, he jumped up and followed. Hibird soon followed him too.
Tsuna's face went even more red now. 'Did he just agree to come?' She thought, walking to his room. When she got there, he was sitting on the side of the bed, his feet touching the floor. Hibird and the kitten had already made themselves comfy on the corner of one of the pillows, huddling together.
