Chapter 2

Chrome's almost finish to freshen up. She was very thankful that Tsuna even allowed her to use his shower. 'Boss is so kind' she thought. She was about to turn the shower off when she heard someone behind the door. Chrome looked at the door knob. "hm? Why is it moving?" she asked herself. Then, suddenly….. the door opened! Chrome's eyes widened. It's a man. A guy she does not know. She stared at him. While the man, looked paralyzed, just stood and did nothing. Then, he suddenly turned red and sweat covered his forehead.

"Who are you?" Chrome asked sternly, her eyebrows met. Kyoya still doesn't move. His face really looked in shock. Chrome got confused. "What's happening to him?" still unable to understand their situation. Then she looked at herself…. Then shouted.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Chrome covered her body with everything in the shower room.

Kyoya snapped into consciousness because of the shout. He immediately closed the door back. Kyoya was all wet with cold sweat. In seconds, he realized he needed to jump out the window… now.

It was another day. Kyoya started walking around Namimori. His face was blank, emotionless as usual, but actually, he was thinking about what happened last night. Kyoya never felt the feeling of being frightened. Yes— frightened. And yet, he experienced it last night. He was thinking waaay too deep he didn't notice he was bumped into someone—Sawada. He is still expressionless, as if he didn't plan to kill him last night. Sawada spoke:

"S-sorry…!" Tsuna said. He was about to give a friendly smile but when he saw Kyoya"s natural glaring eyes, he looked more frightened than apologizing. Kyoya didn't care at all. He's just in his same face.

"Boss..", someone from Tsuna's back called. It was a girl with a trident, Chrome. Kyoya's eyes widened in surprise. And with that, Tsuna, being a useless boss once again, got more scared and ran away as fast as he could leaving Chrome and Kyoya behind. Kyoya stared at Chrome.

"You…" Kyoya's almost speechless.

"Excuse me, mister? Do I know you?" Chrome asked in a sweet voice.

Kyoya was like "OK…" He didn't say another word. It's better if she didn't recognize him. Kyoya's doesn't know that Chrome has a really bad eyesight. Lucky for him Chrome wasn't wearing contact lenses last night. Kyoya turned his back and walked away without answering the girl.

"Mister…", Kyoya turned. "Sorry to disturb you but… do you know the way to Kokuyo Land? I'm lost and my boss just ran away."

For Kyoya, it's one word, "hassle"

"Turn left, then right. Go straight", Kyoya answered coldly.

"Can you… lead me there?" Chrome asked with her natural sweet voice.

Helping others is really not Kyoya-type. So, what do you think his answer is?

"No." He walked away and left Chrome standing alone.

Kyoya spent his day just by walking. He feels very relaxed when around Namimori. But this day is so much different. It feels irritating. Why? Because there is some girl who has been following him all day long. The irritation went up to his head. He stopped and turned.

"Stop there, or I'll bite you to death", he said in coldly, his face irritated.

The girl shook and decided to reveal herself from hiding and yeah—it's Chrome. She's almost crying.

"M-mister… P-please… I'm lost…" Chrome started, staring like a puppy abandoned by the owner.

For a girl her age, isn't it funny to be lost in the small place of Namimori? Kyoya just stared. "Herbivore", he told himself, looking at Chrome in distaste.

"Tss…" Kyoya turned his back and gave Chrome a sign to follow him. Chrome ran fast beside him.

"Arigatou gozaimasu", she smiled. "What's your name mister?" Chrome asked.

"Hibari Kyoya", he blankly said without even looking at her.

"I'm Chrome", she blushed. "You're so kind, mister…"

Kyoya stopped and looked at Chrome. It's the first time someone told something like that to him. Without any expression, he again looked away and never looked at Chrome anymore. Just like nothing happened. The day ended having Chrome led to Kokuyo Land by the 'kind man' Mister Hibari Kyoya.

Three weeks had passed. And within that three consecutive weeks, Chrome [always left behind by Ken and Chikusa] and Kyoya [ always around Namimori] always end meeting up. Can't help it. Chrome is always lost and luckily, she always finds Kyoya to help her. Lucky! ^^v
