Hey everyone! Thanks for the reviews from the last chapter. For Aglio – Saggezza's question, at first I thought the same thing. But recalling my history of choosing names, I'm very terrible at it. When I was thinking of names, Matthew was the first one that came in mind. So, I guess Nana's friend came from overseas if that helps. For Anon-sama, I'm sorry for not making the story more realistic. I'll do my best to work on it. And thank you for your advice. I'm still getting the hang of it. But thanks again, I appreciate it. I suppose I have a long way to go haha. And thanks to xXDante-kunXx for the idea. So, here's the new chapter for the week.

Chapter Two: Shopping

It's been a week since Matthew entered into Yamamoto and Tsuna's lives. As the days pass, so did the supplies. As his mother said in the letter, they receive the money daily. But that's something Tsuna isn't worried too much about. Apparently, the baby's supplies are running low so that would mean either Tsuna or Yamamoto are going shopping. Unfortunately, Yamamoto is busy with baseball practice; so he is out of the question. Tsuna slowly adjust Matthew to the stroller. Thank goodness that Tsuna doesn't need to buy that. Matthew then proceeds to coo to himself as he wiggles on his seat. There is also some information that his mother wanted to mention. It says:

Dear Tsuna,

How are you and Matthew? Are you both eating properly? Your father and I are enjoying ourselves with the rest. I forgot to mention that Matthew is one years old. His mother mentioned that he should be able to say a few words. Oh, and don't give him too much sugary juices, he would have trouble sleeping. And his birthday is on February 14. Isn't that interesting Tsuna? And I think it's coming up in a few days, isn't it? Matthew is a Valentine baby. That's about it that you need to know about Matthew. Take care and good luck to you both.

And that was about it. Nothing more; nothing less. Not that he's expecting anything out of his parents. And he's definitely not expecting something from Reborn. "Are you ready to go shopping Matthew?" Tsuna asked, playfully. The small child giggles excitingly. Tsuna couldn't help himself from smiling. Having Matthew around may be stressful, but he brings joy ever now and then. After settling the necessary equipment, he locks his home and made way for the store. During that Matthew fumbles with his fingers.

Looking through aisles and aisles seems like it is going on for eternity. It's been an hour and Tsuna still couldn't find a single thing. How does his mother deal with this stuff? Just when he was about to give up, a rough familiar voice reaches his ears. Tsuna turns to see Ryohei running directly at him. He let out a terrified scream while protecting the stroller. Matthew even stopped his cooing to see what was going on.

Ryohei stop midway and slides to the two males. He smiles happily before greeting the young brunet. Tsuna nervously stands up with a horrified smile.

"Big brother, what're you doing here?" Tsuna asked nervously.

"I'm checking out to see some of the new extreme boxing equipment." He said with pride.

The conversation continued further on when one topic went to another. While that was happening, Matthew just watches with interest. At the same time in discomfort. Who is this person that's talking to Tsuna? Why is he getting friendly with Tsuna? He doesn't like it. He prefers Yamamoto being with him and Tsuna rather than someone else. Speaking of which, where is Yamamoto? A lot of questions enters Matthew's mind dealing with 'where is Yamamoto?' and 'who is this person?'

"How about I extremely help you? I did what I needed to do so I have some time!" Ryohei offered loudly in excitement.

Tsuna smiles as he agrees. With a helping hand, he can get the things he needs and get out so he can take care of Matthew. Thank goodness that today is a Saturday. And that Gokudera is stuck on a family trip with Bianchi. He would have made a scene if he was here. All that played out while Matthew wasn't paying attention. The motion of his stroller moving yanks him out into the real world. He smiles happily. 'Tsuna must have said goodbye to that stranger already.' Matthew thought with joy. Now, he can spend his day with no one bothering them.

But it all crash down when the baby saw the boxer following them. Matthew frowns angrily. One thing that popped into Matthew's mind was that Ryohei is a stalker. Not only that, he's an evil person that's trying to get Tsuna away from him and Yamamoto forever! He needs to think of something to get him away.

Matthew burst into tears. Tsuna halts the stroller and bent down to see what's wrong with the baby. Matthew held out his hand, gesturing that he wants to be picked up. Tsuna complies by doing so and rubbing the child gently on the back. Matthew quickly calms down in comfort. That ended when he saw Ryohei coming closer. Matthew, once again, burst into tears. Tsuna was taken aback by the sudden action. He tried cooing and saying that everything is okay. Alas, it didn't work. Instead, Matthew cried harder and harder which made it difficult for Tsuna.

Ryohei, seeing the brunet struggle, decided to help out by taking his place. Before the boxer could even get close, Matthew slaps his hand away and gave him a glaring pout. Now it's Ryohei's turn to be taken aback. Did Matthew just hit him? Of course he did! Anyone can see that. Pretending that didn't happen, Ryohei tries again. As a result, Matthew cried even louder, hit Ryohei's hand, and glares angrily at him.

"What's the matter Matthew? Is there something wrong?" Tsuna asked as he tries to calm the baby down.

But Matthew didn't. Now, surrounding people watch in pity and disappointment at how poor Tsuna is dealing with the situation. Ryohei took the chance to back away to keep his distance from the baby. Fortunately, Matthew settles down slowly. Now, the boxer moves closer. And Matthew begins to cry. Taking a hint, Ryohei kept his distance from the two.

"I don't think he extremely likes me Sawada." Ryohei pointed out.

"That's crazy Big Brother. He's just not used to you yet."

Ryohei took that as a hint to move closer. Alas, to his dismay, Matthew cries once more. The boxer steps away. "Yeah… He doesn't like me." He scratches the back of his head. Tsuna speculates curiously as to why Matthew is behaving differently. Normally, he's very well behaved and doesn't cause a scene like this. So why out of sudden?

"Mama… Papa…" The baby mumbles.

Did he just say Mama and Papa? Oh, now he gets it. Matthew misses his parents. Tsuna soothe Matthew's baby in order to make the baby to sleep. But he isn't complying. Instead, he squirms in the brunet's arm whenever he receives a rub on his back. He continues on in hopes that it would work.

"Hey it's Tsuna, Matthew, and Sempai." A familiar voice called out not too far from them.

Tsuna and Ryohei turn around to see that Yamamoto is approaching them. He was wearing his white t-shirt, light blue jacket, and sweatpants. He's also carrying his equipment bag with a baseball bat poking out of it. Tsuna smiled. Thank goodness Yamamoto showed up. "Yamamoto." Tsuna called out.

"What are you guys doing here? It's kind of strange to see you two together." He asked with curiosity.

"Matthew was running out of things so I decided to do some shopping and bumped into Big Brother." Tsuna explained.

Yamamoto only nods his head, "So did you get anything done?" He became confused when he saw Tsuna's face pale. Did he say something he shouldn't? The baseball player's attention roams to his boxing captain friend as he was closing in on him.

"Sawada and I are having extreme trouble with it since that baby doesn't like me."

Yamamoto blinks blankly, dumbstruck. He turns to Tsuna silently to see if it was true. Tsuna merely nods his head in agreement. The baseball player simply shifts his bag firmly onto his shoulders. He held out his arm towards Tsuna. The brunet could only tilt his head and arch a brown in confusion. Yamamoto smiles sheepishly.

"I'll take Matthew while you handle the shopping. I'll handle Matthew until you're done. So, don't worry too much Tsuna." Yamamoto offered happily.

"Thank you so much Yamamoto. That'll help me a lot." Tsuna smiled happily.

"No problem. I'll be on the playground on the top floor."

"Okay, thanks again."

Tsuna waves goodbye to the two and goes along with Ryohei. Yamamoto waves back, waiting for the two to be out of his sight. Matthew pouts with disappointment. The stranger made Tsuna go with him. The baseball player looks down to see the silent baby being upset. "What's wrong Matthew?" He asked. Matthew only replies with an angry coo. The taller male got the hint as to what was going on.

"Don't worry. Tsuna will comeback. And we'll go home together."

Matthew looks up to the cheerful father-figure. At first he was doubtful. Later, he became happy once he realizes that it's true. Yamamoto places the baby down to the stroller. He makes way to the elevator but was stopped. Matthew was holding out his hands to reach for something on the aisles. Yamamoto bends down to see what it was. "Is there something you want Matthew?"

Matthew coos as he points at the stuffed lion. Yamamoto picks it out and sees the price tag. Seeing that it wasn't too much, he decides to buy it. He first hands it down to Matthew. "Let's go buy it okay, Matthew?"

"Thanks for the help Big Brother. I managed to get what I needed."

"No problem Sawada. I just want to extremely help you."

"Well, I'll be going now."

Tsuna waves goodbye to his boxing companion as he leaves. But he was stopped before he could move an inch. He turns around to see that Ryohei was holding him back. "Um, is there something wrong Big Brother?" He asked out of concern.

"No… I want to extremely say that we should hang out more."

Tsuna blinks out of surprise. He nods his head and says goodbye once more. The brunet rushes to the elevator. He presses on the last number to go to. If he remembers correctly, Yamamoto and Matthew would be on the top floor. It's unbelievable that the mall could fit a miniature park for children. He quickly steps out once the doors open. Tsuna easily spots Yamamoto sitting on a bench with a stroller next to him. The brunet smiles and runs over to them.

"Yamamoto, Matthew, I'm done with the shopping."

"Oh, Tsuna, you're back. Matthew is asleep right now."

Tsuna sits himself down on the bench besides Yamamoto. He looks to see that Matthew is really sleeping. The brunet smiles gentle before putting the purchase items aside and leans against the bench. It was a long day for him in his opinion. Thank goodness Reborn is on that trip with everyone. "It's nice to have days like these every once in a while." He said aloud.

"Yeah, it's nice and quiet."

"Let's stay here for a while." Tsuna mumbles as he close his eyes.

I'm so sorry that I haven't been updating for this story. I was busy on Missing Tsuna. I wanted to finish that before starting on this. But I saw how this chapter was almost finished so I decided to do so. So, I was writing and focusing on this for now. But my main focus is on Missing Tsuna. And on some up-coming stories that might come out soon if I finish it. But don't worry. I will work on this bit by bit. And I'm sorry for not making any scenes of 8027. I will make it up to you guys next time.
