Chapter 3 - The Perfect Date Preparations
"Juuudaime!!," yelled a loud, rude teenager outside Tsuna's house. Tsuna woke up and opened the window in his room and scratched his eyes, trying to see who was outside.
"Gokudera-kun? Doushita? Is something wrong? It's pretty early," Tsuna said. He remembered last night, and what happened with Yamamoto. He smiled a bit, his eyes still groggy and sleepy.
"I...I need your help!!" Gokudera said, rushing upstairs. Finally reaching Tsuna's room, the octopus-haired teen went on his knees and begged Tsuna for a favor. "I REALLY need your help!"
"What is it? I'll help any way I can," Tsuna asked. Now this was getting interesting. His competition for Yamamoto's love was begging him for a favor. He was thinking about not helping his right-hand man just to smite him, but he couldn't do that. Not after everything Gokudera's done for him. But still, things were worrying him. Tsuna kept telling himself Gokudera's way better looking than him, way smarter than him, and way more charming than him. If it came down to it, he knew the baseball idiot would choose Gokudera. Of course.
"Judaime! Please help me get a date with Yamamoto!!" Gokudera yelled, practically making the whole house hear him. Downstairs, Bianchi and Fuuta were playing cards, and all of a sudden are interrupted with Gokudera's yelling.
Bianchi, a little confused, said to herself, 'What the hell? Hayato's gay? I never saw that coming...or maybe I did...the way he always clings to Tsuna like that. Whatever.' Fuuta only smiled, like he usually does. Nana, Lambo, and I-pin were also a little disturbed by the fact, but, well, its not like that was the craziest thing that happened in that house. The little bastard of a home tutor heard it too. But, to Reborn, this only intrigued him further.
"G-Gokudera-kun! That's too loud!!" Tsuna said, a little worried that everyone downstairs heard. "And besides, why ask me? I don't know anything about dates."
"Judaime, please!! I don't feel right asking Haru or Kyoko!!" Gokudera said, worried that his boss might turn him down.
"O-Okay. Just let me get dressed," Tsuna said. He was wondering how all of this would turn out. Would Yamamoto get together with Gokudera? Tsuna knew inside he didn't want that, but at the same time, he had to help his right-hand man. He didn't feel obligated to do it because the white-haired teen had saved him so many times, though. It just felt like it was the right thing to do.
A little later and Tsuna and Gokudera were shopping around Namimori looking for some clothes for Gokudera. The biggest shock of his life so far had just hit him an hour ago, and now he was trying to get Gokudera the perfect outfit to wear for his date. Although...Tsuna really didn't know what the hell Gokudera should wear.
"Judaime! How about this?!" Gokudera asked, picking up a retro-fashioned shirt. It didn't seem to go with the teen's style, but, nonetheless, the idiot picked it up.
"Uh, Gokudera-kun, that's...um...no. Just no," Tsuna answered. It really looked bad on Gokudera. It just wasn't punk enough, y'know? This whole shopping thing wasn't getting anywhere of course. Gokudera was hopeless, and so was Tsuna. It seemed like only God could save this trainwreck. Either that...or a pair of girls they knew who were conveniently shopping around Namimori as well.
"Tsuna-kun? That's you, right Tsuna-kun?" Kyoko asked, popping up in front of Tsuna with Haru in tow.
"Kyoko! Haru!" Tsuna said, suprised. Those two could help them. He just didn't know if Gokudera would let them.
"What are you two doing here?!" Gokudera said, growling afterwards. He still felt that Haru was a good-for-nothing stupid woman. And as for Kyoko, if she didn't meet the boss' expectations, then she just wasn't good enough.
"Wait, Gokudera-kun! They could help us!" Tsuna said, trying to persuade Gokudera.
A little later, and Kyoko said, "Oh, so that's it! We'd be glad to help, right Haru?"
"Yeah!!" Haru said, her face bubbling with energy. Now was her chance. She'd buy Gokudera a seriously humiliating outfit and make him pay for all those times he called her stupid. An evil grin had suddenly popped up on her face, followed by a small evil laugh.
Tsuna noticed this and was a little terrified, thinking to himself, 'Oh no, Haru's gonna make fun of Gokudera...'
However, his anxiety went away when Kyoko pulled Gokudera away and told him that she found a nice little outfit that reminded her of him earlier. Haru followed, trying to catch up, saying, "Kyoko! Wait!! What about my evil plan?!"
Tsuna followed them, wondering how this would turn out.
Meanwhile, Yamamoto met up with Hibari again today at his office in Namimori High. It was just like the man to be at school even when he didn't have to be.
"Kyoya!" Yamamoto said, bright with energy.
"Didn't I tell you not to call me that?" Hibari said with a fierce tone. Even if he sounded harsh, he didn't mean to sound too harsh. Scaring away the swordsman was one thing he didn't really want to do. Hibari grabbed Yamamoto by the waist and pulled him in for a deep kiss. As usual, Hibari took command search every centimeter of the baseball nut's mouth. Yamamoto moaned a little, but that only gave Hibari even more incentive to tangle their tounges. Yamamoto parted their lips, and removed Hibari's hands from his waist all together.
"Um, Kyoya, we should stop before any of this gets out of hand, you know?" Yamamoto said. He'd been sleeping with Hibari for two weeks now. It has to stop somewhere, and probably this was the time to do so.
"I see," Kyoya said. It didn't harm him much. They weren't really going out anyways. The one thing that bothered him though, was the fact that he might not get any for a while. Oh well. Yamamoto left the room, giving Hibari one last smile before he did so.
Elsewhere, Tsuna and Gokudera walked back to Gokudera's house with shopping bags in their hands.
'I'm really glad Kyoko and Haru helped us out. This would've been a lot worse if they hadn't...' Tsuna said, letting out a small sigh. Back at the white-haired's house, Tsuna set the shopping bags he was holding and said, "Gokudera-kun, have you actually thought about where to take Yamamoto?"
"Eh? Well..." Gokudera said. Now that he thought about it, he hadn't. He was completely lost.
"Well, Yamamoto's really simple and easily amused. Just take him out to some fancy restaurant and you're fine!" Tsuna said, smiling to reassure his right-hand man.
"A fancy restaurant? Okay!!" Gokudera said. But he knew inside he had to do something more to win over the baseball nut. But what?
Meanwhile, while walking home, Yamamoto heard some fight chants from a loud teenager who happened to be doing his daily jogs. They got louder and louder as
time went out.
"Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!!" the chants said, each one louder than the one before it.
'I wonder who that could be,' Yamamoto thought. Suddenly, he saw a fast gray blur coming for him. Ryohei was running at his fastest, his gray jumpsuit being the cause of the blur's color.
"Hya!!" Ryohei yelled, not stopping. Soon, he bumped into Yamamoto, who fell down because of the collision. Ryohei, who got up as fast as he fell down, responded by saying, "Sorry about that!!"
Ryohei helped up Yamamoto and then said, "Oh? Yamamoto? I'm really sorry about that now!"
Yamamoto laughed it up, saying, "It's fine senpai! Exercising?"
"HAI!!" yelled the teenager, still fired up. "Come on! Let's go run!! GO! GO! GO! GO!!" Ryohei started running, tugging Yamamoto's arm and insisting that he run with him.
"Ahaha!" Yamamoto laughed. It has been a while since he had a good run.
Elsewhere, Gokudera tried on the outfit that Kyoko had helped him buy earlier. It looked good on him. The dress shirt was a little fancy, but it was short-sleeved, which made it somewhat appropriate to wear on casual occasions. Its simple black design did the trick too. Along with some black skinny jeans, a torn-up red undershirt, some wristbands, a few buckles, a red arm band around his right arm, a new pair of crimson shoes, and a prominent maroon red belt, it made the whole outfit complete.
"This should do it. Right?" Gokudera asked. He wasn't too sure if his crush had really liked the way he dressed. Maybe it wasn't really appropriate for a fancy restaurant either. I guess this whole day was somewhat of a waste. He felt bad, since he dragged Tsuna into helping him. But the octopus head had to focus on creating the perfect date for Yamamoto...
There ya go! Its basically like a set-up chapter, so please bear with me.
