Chapter 3

As Tsuna had expected, when he finally arrived to school, the front school gates were already closed shut except for the one-person entrance which was being blocked by no other than the head prefect of the Disciplinary Committee, Hibari Kyoya. Tsuna swore he felt chills crawling up from his spine when those steel blue eyes looked up and landed on his pitiful form.

"G-g-good m-morning, Hi-Hibari-san! I-I… uhm…" Tsuna stuttered as he tried to come up with an excuse as to why he was a minute or two late.

Hibari's passive eyes stayed on the brunet so fixatedly that he could almost, almost feel the smaller teen trembling so pathetically beneath his gaze like a weak animal he is. He opened his mouth to speak; inwardly smirking when he saw the brunet flinched at the mere action and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Sawada Tsunayoshi, you are late. Classes are already in session."

Tsuna swore he could just die from heart attack at any moment. Even though he knew the prefect through Reborn, his English teacher and tutor who likes to drill his teachings to his brain and has considered him as his friend (the prefect even comes to his house to tutor him in Reborn's stead sometimes!), Tsuna can't help tremble in fear whenever he face the person alone, "A-ah! Y-yes! I-I'll just be on my way then..."

When the brunet was about to take a step past the prefect and go to his merry way, Hibari blocked his path by extending his arm. Before Tsuna could open his mouth to speak and ask in a timid voice if the prefect needed anything else, Hibari beat him to it, "As punishment for being late, you are to help arranging books in the library after classes are finished. If you plan to run away, however, I will bite you to death."

"Y-YES!" Tsuna shrieked and dashed straight to his classroom as soon as Hibari had finally let him off.

Hibari watched as Tsuna disappeared into the building before turning around and glared at the person who had just come out from the same direction Tsuna had come from.

"You're late, herbivore."

Luckily for Tsuna, when he arrived to the 1-B classroom, their homeroom teacher was nowhere in sight. That means he wasn't late! – Tsuna smiled at that thought– Too bad he had to stay after school to do some errands for the head prefect, though.

As Tsuna walked towards his seat near the window at the first lane on the third row, he perked up when an intriguing topic was heard from a classmate who had just come in right after him and gossiped about their class having a new student.

At that, Tsuna's eyebrows shot up to his hairline as a thought suddenly came in to his mind. Could it be?

Not too long after, their homeroom and English teacher arrived and announced the beginning of the class which made everyone went to their respective seats and behaved like little angels in front of their devil teacher while Tsuna was lost in his own thoughts.

Meanwhile, blood-red – with a kanji of six in it – and cerulean-blue eyes scanned the vicinity as if looking for something or rather someone, as the owner of those mismatched eyes languidly followed the aloof prefect to god knows where.

He lazily stretched his arms and clasped them behind his head as he looked around the hallways some more. There aren't that much students seeing as it's already class session. The walls were painted in pure white and the hallways were wide, wide enough to fit a truck.

The school is very much ordinary with ordinary-looking students and teachers. Unlike his previous school which was somewhere in Italy, everyone there were practically part of a high status, like having a doctor as a parent and the likes.

Honestly though, he's actually glad that he could get out of that hellhole. He didn't like how girls in his previous school could give him looks like he's some piece of meat. Ah, but then again, he was born with such good looks that any girl would want to offer their virginity to be taken by him. Mukuro made a disgusted look at that thought.

Five minutes or so, they finally arrived at their destination. Mukuro looked up at the sign on the door and arched one his eyebrows up at it as he glanced warily at the aloof prefect.

"Go inside, herbivore or I'll bite you to death."

Mukuro softly chuckled as he entered the empty room a while after the prefect, closing the door with a soft click and stood meters away from the prefect's desk. Amused mismatched eyes silently watched as the prefect studied his school records, grades and whatever information within the folder on his hands.

When the prefect finished analyzing the data, he opened the drawers of his desk and took out a half-sized paper with information of the transferee's class schedule in it; he placed it on the desk and slid it forward to the transferee, signaling for him to take the paper.

Mukuro, with his long limbs, took only a few steps from his position and closer to the desk and grabbed the thin paper from the prefect's desk, putting it closer to his handsome face as he read what was written on it with mild interest.

"Your class is in 1-B. Kusakabe Tetsuya will show you the way." Said the prefect in a monotonous tone as his steel-blue eyes narrowed and continued in a deep voice, "If you break any of the school rules, you will be severely punished. Understand, Rokudo Mukuro?"

Mukuro flashed him a grin and said, "Yes, yes. It was nice meeting you, Mr. Prefect~" before opening the door, stepped out of the room and then closed it behind him, as he turned around to meet the man who will guide him the way to his classroom.

I have a feeling something good will happen today.

Mukuro smiled inwardly.


A/N: Why do I always tend to make the pairings fall at first sight in any of my fics... OTL. If anyone's curious about their ages, Mukuro and Tsuna are both 15 years old while Hibari is 17 years old and Reborn is in mid-twenties xDD

Oh yeah, if anyone wants to get updates and snippets of any of my fics, you can stalk my page in facebook with the same username as here. Just search for XRYUCHAN27 :)) I post other things too like scanlation projects, drawings and other useless stuff. Heh.

Anyway, that's it for this chapter! See you next chapter... don't know when I'll be able to write the next one... If you want me to write more faster, go and leave me a review! Or I won't write... Reviews boost my motivation. If I don't get 5 or more reviews, well... you know what will happen.
