The girl was completely engulfed in fire. Xanxus got up and jumped on stage.
Boss?! All the Varia thought. What was he doing?!
He grabbed the girl, the flames burning his hands until he noticed that the flames were actually sky flames. He was confused. Why were they elemental flames? These flames are like his! The flames slowly burned down and he stared at the girl. She was completely unharmed!
"Ah!" she let out.
What was going on? Why was she completely okay? She stared at him with her big brown eyes, surprised.
"Xanxus!" Vongola Nono called out from the audience.
He looked at his father confused.
"Excuse me, sir." Takeshi let out and Xanxus turned to him. "I'm sorry if you were surprised, but this was only a magic trick." Takeshi laughed nervously at what to do.
Xanxus froze. A magic….. Trick? He looked at the girl and she froze too.
"A magic trick?" Squalo repeated relieved.
"What a sham," Mammon added.
There was silence until Bel and Lussuria started laughing.
"Oh, Bossu! You were so worried!" Lussuria cooed.
Xanxus' face grew darker each moment until he lost it.
"AAAAAAAAGAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHH!"
The girl squeaked at the guy holding her and started screaming. He threw her where ever and started going ballistic, tearing the place down.
...
Vongola Nono sighed. His son just completely destroyed a huge section of the mansion and had to apologize to all the guests. Though it wasn't about the money, he could pay for that or the guest he was worried about. It was his son again. Why did he get so upset? He tried recalling the previous events. Suddenly, he remembered Xanxus' actions. The way he stepped up to the stage without a second thought and his face. His face! Priceless! It was the face of someone worried about another person! That and it was pretty funny with his face when he figured out it was all fake. He laughed.
I think I just found something.
...
In their guest room, Tsuna was glad to take off his head piece and flung it to the basket.
"That was horrible!" he yelled out exasperated. "That guy completely raged at the place!"
Takeshi laughed behind him as he unbuttoned his shirt.
"It was pretty funny though. I didn't think anyone would react to that."
Yamamoto fiddled with his sleeve. The original act was that Tsuna covered himself with his sky flames to fool the audience he was on fire. Then, he'd use one of his water attacks to "put out" the fire as Tsuna takes away his flames. Then, he'd throw a smoke bomb so Tsuna could run undetected and hide underneath the stage, leaving a pile of ash in his place. Later, he'd appear again in the back of the room surprising every one.
"That guy was kinda heroic huh?
"What?!" Tsuna yelled. "That guy was just crazy!"
"Haha. That, or he was really into Tsukiyo." Takeshi teased. Tsuna blushed. "Hey," Takeshi called out as he tugged at his sleeve again, "can you help me take this off? It's stuck."
"Hm? Sure, hold still"
Tsuna grabbed his sleeve and tugged but too hard that he fell back, dragging Takeshi and landing on one of the beds. Yamamoto slammed his fist on the bed, and found himself on top. He was so close that his face almost touched Tsuna's. Tsuna blushed bright pink.
"I-I'm sorry Yamamoto-san!"
Tsuna covered his face with Takeshi's shirt still in his hands and the other boy laughed. The door suddenly burst open.
"GET OFF HIM! JYUUDAIME!"
Gokudera pushed Takeshi off and helped Tsuna up. "Are you alright Jyudaime?! Did this pervert do something to you?!" he glared accusingly at Yamamoto.
"I didn't do anything," Takeshi smiled.
Hayato growled at him like a guard dog.
"Calm down Gokudera! He didn't do anything!" Tsuna hurriedly tried to explain. He was still red from seeing Takeshi so close. Tsuna looked at Takeshi and he gave him a quick secretive look that he blushed even more.
"Ah!" Hayato yelled, "Are you sick Jyuudaime?!" He felt Tsuna's forhead but he brushed it off.
"I'm fine! You don't need to worry!"
"So, Gokudera," Takeshi butted in. "How come you're here? Aren't you supposed to be in the other room with Bianchi?"
Hayato turned purple and froze. "I'm not sleeping anywhere near that woman!" he yelled.
"Hm? So why are you here Gokudera-san?" Tsuna asked.
"Ah, well it seems that stupid cow wandered off again and we can't find him. He took one of the performer's keys with him so now they can't go into their room until we do."
...
"NAnana— ,nann,na"
Lambo walked around picking his nose, unknowingly having a key stuck to his hair. He saw a door and wanted to explore so he opened it and saw a man sleeping in a huge bed.
"What's that?"
The man had something in his hair, - a tail and feathers. Was he sleeping on an animal? He wanted a closer look so he went in.
"Lambo!" Tsuna yelled, grabbing the little child. "What are you doing here?!"
"Tsuna!" Lambo called out in surprise. He was still in his kimono and wig but no head piece. Didn't he change yet? "There's something on that man's pillow!"
"I don't care! You're not supposed to be here! Stop wandering off by yourself! We have to go back to others!"
"No!" the kid cried, "I have to see!"
Lambo started squirming and hitting the older kid.
"Gah! Lambo, stop it!"
Tsuna accidentally let go and he flew to the man's face.
"Ah!" Lambo yelled. He pulled a feather but it wouldn't budge. "Huh?" He kept pulling even harder until Tsuna came and pulled him off.
"Lambo!" he cried. Suddenly an arm pulled him down and he let out a scream.
Tsuna just laid there frozen. What just happened? Lambo squirmed from his grip and went to the door.
"I'll go back now. See you back at the rooms Tsuna!"
"Lambo!" Tsuna called out. "Lambo!"
He already left and he was stuck there. A muscular arm tightly held him so he couldn't get out. Who was this though? Suddenly , the person moved loosening his grip so that Tsuna could move but still not get out. He turned to his other side so see who it was and his mouth opened holding in a gasp (or a yell).
It was that guy from earlier that came up on stage! Out of all the rooms, he slept here! His heart started beating faster and the guy's arms held him tighter. Tsuna looked at the guy's face. The only light his eyes could gather was from the slight crack from the door that he left open. He looked a little angry even while his sleeping but his expression was calm. He had a mature muscular face and he was lucky that that the man had short hair so that it didn't cover his face. In fact, everything was so masculine about him. Tsuna could feel it being so close. His chest that breathing up and down was hard and his arms that trapped him were big. They were complemented with wide, strong shoulders and he was tall. Yeah, Tsuna had more growing to do and this man is definitely older than him but he couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
The man moaned and nudged his head deeper to the pillow. Tsuna almost made a sound, surprised by the sudden movement and his heart started pumping even faster that his whole body heated up.
...
Xanxus woke up, feeling something warm in his arms. He drowsily opened his eyes to check and he saw that one girl again. She was still in her red kimono and she was sleeping, cradled in his arms. Her face was so serene. He must've been dreaming. He closed his eyes and let himself be taken by sleep.
