A/N: Okay so last chapter I do admit was a little short but this one is better I promise! We get a surprising new character in this one, whom I guarantee you will all hate profusely by the end of the story.

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the mentioned characters, only the plot. I don't even own the new OC coming in, cause she's my beta-reader. (I swear, she held a knife to my throat, threatening to cut me if I didn't include her, so blame her not me ._.)

Chapter 2

When Yamamoto got to school, the first thing he noticed was Tsuna and Gokudera standing around talking. He grinned and ran over to them.

"Morning Tsuna, Gokudera." They both ceased their chatter and Tsuna greeted Yamamoto's presence happily. Gokudera frowned and mumbled out a slightly incoherent, "Che".

"Oh! Yamamoto-kun, we were just talking about a new student apparently coming into our class today. I think her name is Sarah," Tsuna exclaimed excitedly. The three boys were chattering away happily (well, two boys and one grumpy Gokudera) when a shadowy figure approached. Tsuna was the first to notice the person inching towards them. When he realised who the person was, he broke out in a cold sweat. Yamamoto noticed a faint blush painting his cheeks too. He turned to see who was coming towards them and saw it was none other than the feisty, meat-loving prefect, Kyoya Hibari-san.

"Tch. Herbivores." Hibari narrowed his eyes first at Gokudera, then Yamamoto but when he reached Tsuna's shy, blushing face, his eyes turned red-hot. Tsuna's eyes widened and he looked away trying to hide the obvious blush covering his innocent face. Yamamoto and Gokudera were slightly puzzled at the strange connection between the two boys. The staring contest went on till Hibari grabbed Tsuna's arm roughly and told him that he had earned himself detention. Before he dragged Tsuna away, he looked over at Gokudera.

"I forgot to tell you, Herbivore, the new girl will be your responsibility. Her name is Sarah Meraz; don't corrupt her mind with your idiocy please." Gokudera growled under his breath and let out an audible 'humph'. He watched as Hibari stalked off, holding Tsuna close to his side and whispering things that Tsuna seemed to be afraid of.

Soon after Hibari and Tsuna had left, the bell rang. Gokudera said something about going to the office to find the girl, so Yamamoto just made his way up to class.

Gokudera P.O.V.

When I got to the office I saw a sassy-looking girl sitting in the chair with her legs crossed. She was looking around as if she was scared that some stranger would come kidnap her. She appeared to be okay so I approached her quietly. When I was in front of her, I let out a small 'Hn' to get her attention. She looked up at me and in a slightly shy voice, muttered her greeting.

"O-Ohayo gozaimasu." When she pronounced the 'su' sound on the end of the word like 'soo', I almost burst out laughing, but kept control over my giggles. I think she noticed though because she looked slightly pissed at me. I decided I would give her a little scare by pouring out long phrases in Japanese. She looked at me, embarrassed that she had no clue what I had said. That time I really did burst out laughing.

"Hahaha! How gullible of you, you look like such an idiot, all embarrassed like that!" Her mind soon registered that I was speaking English and she stood up quickly, fuming.

"You mean you could speak English the whole time!" She gave me an aggressive shove to my shoulder that ceased my laughter. Once we had calmed down I asked her what class she was in and she said she was in 1-A. I decided I may as well show her what I can on our way to class.

As we were walking, I could feel her eyes on me. I tried to ignore it, but I felt the sweat forming in the palms of my hands. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see she wanted to say something and she would turn to me and open her mouth but then shut it again. It was starting to get irritating so I stopped in the middle of the hall. Surprised, she whipped around to face me.

"Look Sarah, I know I'm handsome but please, stop staring." I said sarcastically. She rolled her eyes and put her hand on her hip.

"That's my point exactly; you're too pretty to be straight. You're gay aren't you?" she asked. I was shocked. I mean, I didn't walk around wiggling my hips teasingly at all the cute boys in the school. Unless I did, then that's just stupid. I murmured out a little grumble and she walked up to me and put her face inches away from mine.

I was only a little spooked when she stroked my cheek but when she pulled up my shirt and poked my stomach, I was officially scared.

"W-what are you doing! Stop touching my stomach!" I pushed myself away from her and hugged my torso. She just looked at me flatly and tried to explain.

"Your stomach is as flat and girly as I thought. Not even a snail trail, did you shave it off?" She smirked and poked below my naval. I couldn't stop blushing from embarrassment of someone finding out that I like guys, especially someone who doesn't know me well at all.

I brushed her hand off and she chuckled. "How about you tell me about all the boys you like?" I watched with irritation as she wiggled her eyebrows suggestively. I thought about all the guys I'd ever liked but one stuck out the most.

"Yama…" I said his name under my breath and sighed. I always felt like a fool, falling in love with someone who would never love me back. And more so, he was a boy. Sarah's grin only widened and she began to giggle.

"Look, shut up and get moving, any longer and the class will be over." Sarah sighed dramatically but followed me anyway. She kept cracking jokes to me about my sexuality and I decided to just let myself joke about it too. It was pretty funny and by the time we got to the classroom, I had a silly smile on my face.

Yamamoto P.O.V.

It was about 40 minutes into the lesson when the door slid open slowly and in walked Gokudera. He was sporting a strange look on his face. It was similar to how he acts around Tsuna yet seemed more… goofy.

This fact didn't sit well on my stomach and a wave of worry washed over my body. Something didn't feel right about the way Gokudera was smiling. Soon after, a blonde haired girl walked in. Her chocolaty-hazel eyes were partially covered by big, thick lensed glasses. She looked almost overly happy and it made me feel somewhat insecure. I wondered what Gokudera and that Sarah girl had been talking about on their way here.

The teacher saw her and smiled gently. "Class, today we have a new student joining us." She turned to the girl and motioned her to step forward. "Why don't you introduce yourself to the class?" the girl smiled and turned her attention to the class.

"Hi, my name's Sarah Meraz, I'm from Australia. Nice to meet you all!" She smiled cutely and followed Gokudera to the seat next to him. Yamamoto was seated in front of the two of them and so, heard all the fuss they made all lesson.

Regular P.O.V.

Yamamoto could hardly focus when right in his ears; he could hear giggles from the two of them. It would be that Gokudera leaned over to Sarah and whispered something while she held her hand over her mouth and giggle or Sarah would make some sort of witty remark and Gokudera would let out low chuckles. Saying that it drove him insane was an understatement. He was so jealous that he could nearly feel it pressing against his body, constricting him. He went through the whole day in a grumpy mood and when Tsuna questioned him at lunch time he just huffed and walked away. He didn't pay attention to where he was going; he let his feet do all the work.

Yamamoto soon found himself at the baseball field and just being in the air of the sport, he started to feel much more relaxed and less tense. He sat down on the hill and just took in the atmosphere. Soon enough, he found himself falling into a slumber.

Meanwhile, Gokudera had left Sarah with Kyoko so that he could go take a wander around the school. He walked over near the sports grounds when he saw someone lying down on the hill. Out of sheer curiosity, Gokudera walked down to where the figure lay and crouched down to get a good look at their face. He lightly nudged their shoulder and they turned over almost instantly. Gokudera squeaked and fell back. Deeming it the sleeping person's fault that he fell, he looked angrily at him. When he noticed it was Yamamoto there, his facial expression changed.

Yamamoto was sporting a creepy looking grin and of course, leave it to Gokudera and his surprisingly perverted mind to make something dirty out of the situation. So there it was. Yamamoto grinning devilishly and Gokudera sitting there blushing, trying to ignore the tingly feeling washing over his body, settling in his lower abdomen.

As Gokudera kept staring down at Yamamoto in awe, said boy started to stir. When Gokudera noticed this, he got scared and stood up so fast, he got a little dizzy. He felt dazed as he slowly looked down at Yamamoto who was still rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. He scrunched his eyes over a few times and looked up at Gokudera confusedly.

"G-Gokudera? What're you… What time is it?" Gokudera did the first thing that came to his mind, shoved his hands down to cover himself, looked at Yamamoto with wide eyes and pursed lips before shaking his head furiously.

Now Yamamoto was even more confused. Gokudera looked feverish so he stood up, put his hand on Yamamoto's shoulder and then leant in to press their foreheads together. When Yamamoto pulled away, his face, too, was slightly pink from the passing warmth and the realization of what he had just done.

Gokudera felt so extremely shaken up that when Sarah came running up to him, he hadn't even noticed. Sarah looked between the two of them, puzzled about the situation happening before her.

"Er… Gokudera, come on. You look sick; I'll go with you to the infirmary. Sorry Yamamoto, I'll take over from here so you can go relax, okay?" Yamamoto was still dazed but when he was turned around and pushed towards the main building, he came to his senses. He watched Sarah leading Gokudera up the hill and called out after them.

"Hey, wait!" he called. Sarah turned her head, grinned slyly and winked at him. Yamamoto felt flushed and yet again, irritated. 'I know Gokudera technically isn't mine… but I feel like I'm losing him…' he thought to himself. Deciding that he wasn't in the mood for school anymore, he made his way to the school gates and began his walk home.

END CHAPTER

A/N: Gokudera you sly son of a taint. I'd just like to clarify here and now, that what indeed Yamamoto was dreaming, was not a wet-dream. He was actually dreaming about Sarah falling in a hole and dying, because he was so jealous. Who knew Gokudera had such a dirty mind though? ;)
