"Damn it all!" Beniko yelled as she panted. Sweat gleamed from the parts of her body that wasn't covered by her white tank top and her combat pants. She stared at the mess she has made. Punching bags were everywhere. Their chains had been broken by the immense force she had placed into her punching. The school would end up paying for those, probably, but that was the last of her worries right now.

It sucks not having female friends to talk about, she thought as she gripped her chest, this. She frowned as she blushed.

No! No! It can't be!

"Beni-chan!" she froze when she heard the voice of a certain silver haired boxer walking up to her.

Shit there it is again, she thought as she heard her loud pounding and fast heart beats. She turned to meet the eyes of her upperclassman. Her emerald eyes were fierce and were locked into a glare as the man approached.

"I see you have been training to the extreme!" He yelled with passion. Beniko could have sworn there were flames emitting from his eyes. She sweat dropped and finally grimaced. There's no way.

"Everyone! Look at Beni-chan's extreme passion towards boxing!" He yelled and grabbed her wrist. He held it up as everyone in the boxing club sighed, obviously used with Ryohei's antics. She sighed and removed her wrist from the male's hands.

"I'm going to go home," she murmured and went to change.

Beniko wiped the sweat from her forehead with her towel and drank her water. She stared at the empty pathway before her and sighed.

"If I were to fall in love I wish it'd be with someone smarter," her eyes widened as her thoughts merged with the voice, "and someone cooler."

She turned to see a baby in a suit looking at her with a smile tugging on his lips.

"That's what you are thinking right?"

"But," she stuttered, "How?"

"I have mastered the art of reading minds," he smiled, "but never mind that, Beniko."

How'd he know my name? Beniko thought staring at the baby intensely.

"I have a proposal for you," he continued, "How would you like to join the Vongola family with Ryohei?"

"Vongola family?" That doesn't sound Japanese at all.

"Yes, actually I'm asking you to join the mafia?" What the hell is a mafia?

"Wait why should I trust you?" she asked raising a brow. Then a yell from a distance caught her attention.

"Reborn!" A brunette ran up to the two. He had spiky hair and looked about her age. Sawada from 2-A?

Tsuna looked up and was shocked to see Beniko. "B-beniko-san!"

She's the boxing club's golden girl! He thought, don't tell me Reborn is-

"So are you interested?" Reborn smirked, fondling with his fedora. "Tsuna here will be your boss."

Loser Tsuna? She thought, upset with the thought.

"But consider that you'll be spending more time with…"

"Fine!" Beniko yelled as she blushed. I'll be dead if anyone else finds out. "But understand that I'm not joining because of HIM!"

With that she ran off. While running her thoughts were scrambled and her heart was racing. Her long legs brought her to her home fast and she felt her sweat somewhat dry because of the air.

When will love bring happiness? She yelled in her head. Isn't that what everyone says?

She opened the door to her house and yelled I'm home with what was left with her breath. She entered her living room to see her sister watching a soap opera.

"I'm happy enough that we're friends now," Beniko turned to listen to what the main character was speaking, "because that means that I'd always be beside him even if he wouldn't love me like I love him."

She froze and stared at the TV dumbfounded. Her little sister turned to see her. A smile places itself on the 8 year old's lips.

"You're home Nee-san!" Beniko's sister lulled her head to the side and followed her sister's gaze. "Ah! Mari-chan decided to join Jirou's group and be friends with him."

I-i could achieve happiness like that? Beniko thought as a smile crept to her face. Love isn't so bad after all.

"If that's the case," she started off as soft then eventually became louder, "THEN PREPARE YOURSELF SASAGAWA RYOHEI! I'M GOING TO BE YOUR BEST FRIEND!"
