Disclaimer: If I owned the anime, Levi would be tossed off a building. In every episode. =D

Warning: YAOI! BOY X BOY! ACTUALLY, BOY X MAN! BECAUSE FRAN IS A FREAKING SHORTIE! AND BEL IS 25! (Oh, by the way, Fran's age is going to be 17 in here. Possibly 18 in later chappies if I decide to have a birthday but that's not on dahh agenda so don't get your lemon birthday hopes up. Ciao xD)

Pairings: BelxFran. I will probably mention some XanxusxSqualo, but not much because I don't want to dictate it away from the story and I also plan to make another fanfiction with this same idea except in Squalo or Xanxus' P.O.V. Tell me what you think!

Rating: T, it might go up to M if this gets really... bad. xD It's rated T for language and touching. Not in this chapter (not touching, that is) but in the future there will be. And more. Probably.

Beta: PocketRainbow *full information at bottom, check it out because she rocks my socks*

A/N: Hmm~ Wow, I got a lot more reviews than I would have expected, that's for sure! All in all though, I'm so so so happy with the amount! It's so much more than I'd expect or than I deserve, and it makes me so happy that everyone is enjoying the story so far.

ALSO!

I'm really tiring you guys with this big intro aren't I? D= I'm sorry... Well, I just wanted to sincerely apologize for my late update, but just let you know that it wasn't in vain and that I have the next chapter almost done so the update length shouldn't take as long.

Sorry ! Didn't mean to get all long introductionyy on you there = ) Works been hectic, shouldn't 16 year old sexy guys like me get a break?

No, apparently we don't.

Maybe I should go into modeling?

Oh my I'm talking to myself.

Muse (Zee): O___o couldn't you like, include some hott bondage between Bel and Fran instead of wasting your lovely readers time with THIS shit?

Horo: Now now, Zee, stop stealing Volt's spot light.

Voltrix: .__. Freaks. On with the fanfiction!

///Last Time, my absolutely gorgeous lovely fans ;]///
Fran had heard much more than he would have liked about some not so innocent activities from the two, and Squalo had rambled on quite an odd amount about what a 'fucking annoying bastard' the idiot Xanxus was, but all in all, it had been fun. That is, until it had become late and all three of them had passed out from sheer exhaustion. It never even occurred to him that he should walk back to his room. It was Lussuria's fault! Damn gay man, getting him drunk. Woah, that's pretty creepy when you think about it isn't it? Oh well, too much thinking. Too many words. Head too fuzzy. Must sleep.

///Not Last Time, a.k.a., present time///

Fran let out a long, tortured groan, squeezing his eyes shut even tighter. Okay, who was pounding at his head with a hammer? Because if it was Belphegor, Fran swore he might just murder the prince. Wait, it couldn't be a hammer, the pain in his throbbing cranium was consistent, not coming in jabs like a hammer might. So why did it feel like his head might tear in two?

He squinted open his eyes, to see if somehow the prince really was the one causing the horrible pain he now suffered, but found no one. Nope, instead he glared (Fran wasn't a morning person) into the worried looking gaze of a green haired man that seemed familiar, but he couldn't place his name.

Gahh... My head isn't working. I feel horrible.

But, his little phase of cluelessness didn't last long because soon he recognized the gay man hovering above him (which didn't process into his mind that a gay man really was hovering above him, because if it had Fran would have most definitely pushed Lussuria away) as his 'coworker,' or whatever you'd call someone who happened to work for the same circus as you do.

Soon he realized that the horrible ache to his skull must be one of the dreaded hangovers he'd heard his best friend- EX best friend- Mukuro complain about. How Fran had managed to become in the first place was beyond him, and he knew that it must not have been his decision because he didn't very well like breaking the law and drinking underage. It just wasn't something someone as self respecting as Fran did. Another thing he hadn't accounted for, apparently he was good at handling alcohol! Although he felt quite queasy, and more than a little sick, thankfully no urges to actually puke were present (at the moment).

Figures, even when I couldn't recall Lussuria's name when I first woke up that I'd already be wondering in what dreaded way the stupid blondie managed to mar me. Looks like my hate for him really shows through!

"Oh, my poor Frannie! You don't look very good! Was that your first time drinking?! Would you like me to go get Bel?! Oh you look absolutely dreadful!" worried the gay man, staring down at Fran with the look a mother might hold for a child. He completely ignored the last comment, for one finding it completely unimportant and for two he had something more important to divide his utmost attention to.

For instance!

...

What had Lussuria just called him?

"... Lussuria, I'd appreciate if you did not call me Frannie, it makes me feel like an old lady." Fran said coldly, his glare hardening even though his face was supposedly blank beneath his façade. Lussuria sweat dropped and scooted away.

"Why is that, Frannuuhee- errr... Fran? Is it because Frannie sounds like nanny? Or granny? Why you have such an adorable little name, Fran!" Lussuria had sounded nervous at first, even letting out an anxious laugh, but by the end his usual cheery hopelessly gay tone had returned, as he patting Fran's frog hat happily, once again moving closer to Fran.

He felt his eye twitch. "...Lussuria-san, please don't make fun of my name." He commanded calmly, turning away signaling the green haired elder that this conversation had been dismissed. Fran had sat up by now, and his head ache almost blurred his vision, and all he really wanted to do was snuggle back into the... floor? Had he actually fallen asleep on the floor?! Dammit! He was such an idiot!

Fran quickly started to get to his feet, but he hadn't walked more than a few steps before he realized he'd gotten up much too quickly and his head had apparently caught up with him, because his vision swam slightly with annoying dark clouds, and he stumbled when it was accompanied with the horrible migraine. Almost immediately the frog caught himself, leaning heavily (and thankfully) against the wall he'd been close to at the time.

"Fran-kuuuun~! You should bathe or something, it helps! Plus, we can't have you looking like this for tonight's performance now can we?!" Lussuria sang, making Fran's eyes widen in horror. Oh shit! He'd forgotten that his first performance would be tonight! But then again... it's not like he did much of anything other than stand there and let Bel pelt knives at him.

Wait, actually when I think of it that way I think I should get a raise...

Then something else occurred to him.

Am I even getting paid?!

He rubbed his head gently, trying to make the hangover go away magically before looking up at Lussuria tiredly, deciding to ignore his statement about the performance for now. "Shower... Ahh... yeah, I guess I'll go do that." He said, and glanced back at the bed he'd fallen asleep on the previous night. Squalo, apparently not an early riser, was still passed out, sprawled out over most of the bed.

Bed hog.

Fran thought with amusement, although there was no real malice behind the thought. The two elder men that seemed to have gotten him drunk the previous night (again, CREEPY) had grown on him, oddly. Almost like, as much as Fran hated to admit it, friends.

"You can use my shower, Franni- Fran!" Lussuria crooned happily, and Fran simply shook his head with a thanks anyways (he chose to ignore the slight mess up with his name for the moment).

Before he could leave the room though, once again the feminine man behind him spoke up. "Fraann-chan! Aren't you forgetting something?" Huh? Was he forgetting something? He turned around while racking his brain for the things he'd brought with him. Although, he wasn't left curious for long because as soon as he turned around his eyes were met with the sight of Lussuria wagging around a very despicable frog hat. Oh, how he hated that frog hat. Maybe Fran could try and say it wasn't his and walk away? But then again the gay man had already seen him wearing it yesterday. And Bel probably would murder him if anything came to the ugly hat. Joy.

"Ahh... Do I have to wear that ugly thing?" He complained, and Lussuria let out an offended gasp.

"Fran-chan! How could you say that?! It's adorable!" The other man whined, and Fran raised an eyebrow.

Adorable? Right.

"Plus Fran-chan! It suits you soooo well! Bel would be so sad if you threw it away~" Lussuria added with a sparkling smile, and Fran had to stop the edges of his mouth from quirking upwards at the thought of making the blond man sad. Oh oh, what a nice thought~

"All the more reason to get rid of it..." He muttered under his breath, and Lussuria put a hand to his ear.

"What was that, Frannie?"

"Don't call me that, perverted gay man."

"Awww but FRANNIE! It suits you so well! Like your cute hat!" Lussuria complained, the man's high voice starting to hurt his ears.

"I'm cute, eh?" He drawled, reaching a hand out and motioning for the gay man to throw it. Lussuria did and missed, but since Fran had quick reflexes, he still managed to catch it.

"Very cute, Fran! You're like a cute little uke!" Said Lussuria with a giggle, which caused Fran to stop and give the man a questioning stare. Sue him; he was innocent so obviously he wouldn't know what an 'uke' was. "Oh oh it's nothing, now be on your way! Bel-san probably misses you!" Once again, Lussuria was awarded by a quizzically raised eyebrow. Fran didn't respond, instead choosing to put his silly frog hat on his head, adjusting it so it was comfortable and turning around, raising his hand and waving without looking back.

And with that, Fran walked out quickly, heading back to his room. Well, that was his intent at least; you see that's when he realized he didn't exactly know where his roomwas. Even though he tried to retrace his steps, Fran always had been horrible with directions. It just wasn't his high point! He wasn't very observant. Sure, things were easy with a map and all but if not-

Oh shit, he'd let his mind wander and now he was most likely even more lost than before! Looking around, Fran sighed, starting into a light jog, wondering how on Earth a mansion could possibly be so huge that it was even possible for someone to get lost in. This place made Mukuro's apartment look pathetic!

While rounding a corner, he found himself knocked backwards so that he was sprawled onto the ground. The unknown identity of whoever he'd ran into stopped abruptly, apparently they were also surprised. He rubbed his abused behind, looking up after letting out a groan. There, in front of him was a beautiful girl that looked to be around his age, with black hair and shining red eyes. She reminded him of someone, although he couldn't put his finger on who it was. Also, she was looking at him with a slightly annoyed look and raised eyebrows. (A/N: Hey guys, this is our first OC, my lovely first reviewer Tuna1827. She's totally awesome xD Our next OC will be in the next chapter, or maybe the one after that. We'll see!)

Err... Well that was embarrassing.

He thought, while quickly rising to his feet. "Sorry about that~" He said as decently as he could, taking note of all her lovely features. He found himself wondering if she was single. (A/N: Don't worry, I'm not pairing him up with an OC, he's bi *he doesn't know it, after all he just met our lovely mad prince* so it's quite alright for him to be interesting in girls xD... even if it'll get him nowhere!) "You are?" He said dully, not wanting to seem too desperate.

She rolled her eyes at him, as if he somehow amused her, and then smirked slightly, and Fran found himself wondering what was so funny. "The mad prince is looking for you; you're Fran I'm guessing?" He nodded dumbly, choosing to ignore the first part of what she'd said, and once again he found himself thinking she was similar to someone he knew but he couldn't place who. "I see, well my brother sent me to go find Squalo." She muttered something that sounded a lot like 'lazy bastard,' and then went on. "And so, if you wouldn't mind getting out of the way." Fran quickly took a few steps backwards as he was hit by the realization of who her brother was.

"I didn't know Xanxus had a sister." He noted, trying to keep the conversation going a little longer. He was earned a bored look.

"Bye-bye, Fran." And with that she was off, in the direction Fran had just come from. He let himself smile slightly.The girl had been cool, even if she obviously held no interest for Fran. Then again, he never had been very good with relationships (ehem, he'd never had a girlfriend). He'd always been much better at making friends with girls, than actually having a romantic time with them. Even back at the orphanage, he'd only had girl who were friends! Wow, that almost made him sound gay. That was quite depressing.

She said something about the knife bastard looking for me, right?

Then he scolded himself for not asking the girl (who he still didn't know the name of) for directions towards his insane sempai. Finally, after a little bit of thoughtful indecision, he realized the smartest choice would be to just go the way she'd been coming from. He was really slow today! It had taken him almost a minute to figure that out! ... Damn hangovers (because that's obviously what it was). Hopefully his pounding headache would have faded by the time the show started.

After about 3 minutes of walking, he finally found himself in the somewhat familiar halls next to the kitchen.

Hnn... Breakfast or angry sempai, breakfast or angry sempai? ... Breakfast.

With that thought in mind, he enthusiastically headed into the kitchen. Although, as soon as he opened the door he kind of wished he had still been lost back in the confusing hallways because there sitting on the table, was a devilishly grinning prince.

"Ahh... Sempai, Xanxus's sister told me you were looking for me." He said in that monotone voice of his, and then for reputations sake, "I was really hoping you weren't in here."

Sadly though, the prince didn't seem to hear his insult because he was staring at Fran. Well, at least he thought the blond was staring at him, because the maniac was facing right towards him and Fran felt slightly paranoid like something disgusting was staring at him.

"What happened to you, idiot frog?" The insane blond asked, smirk looking a little wider than usual, as if his morning appearance somehow amused him.

"Ahh... Can't seem to remember." Fran lied, not seeing the bright side of telling Bel that he'd gotten drunk with Lussuria and Squalo. "Xanxus's sister said you were looking for me." He repeated, monotone.

The knife bastard's smile faltered, apparently surprised. "You ran into Maria [1]?!" He said, his voice truly sounding shocked. I found myself wondering why it was so surprising. So her name was Maria, eh? He'd always liked that name.

"Hai?" He mused, raising his eyebrows with obvious curiosity as to why it was a big deal. Maybe the girl was Bel's girlfriend? Something about the thought bothered him, and he classified it as jealousy that the blond was lucky enough to go out with such a pretty girl.. He gazed at the prince's smile, and found it, dare he say twitching. Oh, that was entertaining.

If Fran hadn't had good hearing, he probably wouldn't have been able to have heard the quietly murmured "She thinks she's too cool to talk to me but she talks to the frog, neh?" the blond said it with his everlasting smile still in place, but the green haired boy was entertained to notice slightly annoyed marks tainting the man's mask.

HAH! Serves you right, being the insane lunatic you are.

Thought Fran, holding back a smirk. "Did you say something, sempai?" he asked, ever innocent. The prince didn't answer; apparently keen on muttering things to himself. All of a sudden, the irritated blond looked up, looking back to normal. Well, that was quick.

"No no. Hey, my un-cute kouhai. Go shower, you look absolutely disgusting. Ushishi~" Fran didn't let the comment get to him, by this point deciding that anything that came out of the prince's mouth wasn't worth listening to.

"Ahh... I can't remember how to get back to the room." Well that was half truthful. Because he couldn't, although he said it mostly to annoy his sempai. The prince's hair twitched, letting Fran know he'd successfully gotten a reaction. Wow! Here he was, learning to be so observant~ Hanging out with an insane prince had an upside, it seemed.

"Don't expect me to babysit you, walk around. You'll find it eventually, ushishi~!" Oh god, that laugh was starting to make his sempai sound gay! Didn't the stupid blond realize that? Or maybe his sempai really was gay? No no, that was just too weird of a thought to think about. Lussuria was quite enough gayness for the entire Varia, that he was sure.

"Okay, although if I end up getting lost I'm telling the long haired shark it was your fault." Fran said, knowing that would get the knife bastard to show him to their room.

"Fine, but only because you asked nicely~ Ushishi!"

"You don't make a lick of sense, sempai."

--

Soon, they were both back in the room, and Fran couldn't help but notice his untouched bed and Bel's completely messy chaotic one. It made it look like indecent things had been going on in this room the previous night, to his amusement. As if! Bel plopped down on his bed, gesturing towards the bathroom in boredom as if Fran wasn't worth talking to.

Deciding the ignoring act suited both of them quite nicely, Fran didn't even nod at Bel before walking into the bathroom. He closed the door, not bothering to shoot a glance back at his sempai. The bathroom was nice, like the rest of their shared room, although once again it wasn't as fancy and nice as the rest of the house which made him feel quite jealous.

He peeled off his teal suit and black shirt slowly, taking his time.. The bathroom air felt warm, as if someone had recently showered.

... Oh.

Had Bel just showered? And Fran was going to shower in the same shower as him? Well that was.... awkward. Suddenly Fran felt a lot colder, as if the thought had had some strange effect on him (which really, wouldn't the thought of showering in the same shower as insane princes make YOU feel uncomfortable? Yeah, well Fran is no exception) and quickly stripped off his dress pants and socks before jumping into the shower.

He turned on the water, making sure it wasn't a lot hotter than most people would be comfortable with before letting out a sigh and relaxing.. He ran his fingers through his hair, rubbing his head gently, hoping that the shower might help his ever aching head. It felt great, he loved showers. It was probably a hobby of his. Isn't that embarrassing? But it was true! There hadn't been anything to do back at home, with Mukuro off at some modeling gig he hadn't had much to work with. And Fran never had been a huge fan of TV, and reading always made his head hurt. So shower it was! And so now, after hanging out with an insane prince for a day, drinking his ass off and suffering a hangover, there wasn't anything he'd rather be doing than letting the hot water run over his skin.

He let his mind wander as he let his hands travel over his firm but not particularly bulky chest with soap in hand.

What was up with this place?

Everyone was a freak! He wasn't exactly sure whether this place was actually a circus or a freak show, it definitely seemed like the latter. And he'd seen a lot of people! At least 20 people came in a day to see Mukuro and his magic tricks, they'd been quite popular. And he was positive that in all the time he'd worked as a little mini magician he'd only seen a few people that had come close to being as weird as anyone at the Varia. But, as weird as they all were...

It had only been one day but...

He really liked it here!

Everything was fantastic; it all had such a happy feel. Lussuria, Squalo, hell! Even Xanxus, Levi and Xanxus's sister, Maria! The twins were slightly scary, and he did hold a slight grudge against them for completely humiliating him with the frog hat, but hey, at least they were hot. Even arguing with the stupid prince left him with a happy feeling in the pit of his stomach! Although, that happy feeling was usually replaced rather quickly with one of firm annoyance and hate, but hey, we can't have everything neh?

Another thing; he was going to actually be in the circus! Well, it wasn't like Fran had his own act or anything, but it was better than nothing. Xanxus had said that after a few shows if he was able to come up with a good enough act then Xanxus would consider making him his own portion of the show. His current job was less than preferable, considering he was risking his life by letting an insane man throw knives at him, but hey, life is about taking risks~

He glanced down, wondering if he should use shampoo. He had slightly longer hair, and although he hated to admit it, he always loved the feeling of shampoo (or conditioner) running through his hair. Well, the one to the side must be Bel's. Would his sempai care? Oh well!

So after about 45 minutes that passed much too quickly and he'd washed his hair and managed to feel squeaky clean, Fran stepped out of the tub shivering. He pulled one of the towels around his shoulders, pulling another up to dry his dripping hair. Vigorously rubbing it clean, he realized with dread that he didn't have a change of clothes. What was he going to wear? Was he supposed to wear the clothes that he'd just had on? But that would ruin the point of the shower! Oh my, now he was started to feel like a shower freak, really. With a sigh, he pulled on the same clothes he'd just discarded. His throbbing temple had faded a bit so he was in a better mood than usual.

Without even bothering to pick up, he opened the door.

And his jaw dropped open.

Well, not literally of course. Except, his mouth did go slightly ajar with surprise and need for air. 'Why?' is the question on your mind right now, right? Oh, he'll tell you why.

Lying there, on the bed, is what appeared to be, a... s-sleeping Bel. With no shirt in sight. No! Fran wouldn't be fooled! Bel wasn't actually asleep. Dammit it! He couldn't know with the blonde's stupid bangs getting in the way. Oh, how he wanted to just brush those bangs away so he could look his sempai directly in the eyes. Don't ask him why, it's not like he wants to stare into them forever or something stupid like that. Curiosity just seemed to attack him whenever he glanced at the prince. And the fact that the prince was half naked didn't bother him. He'd seen Mukuro half naked, so why should he feel embarrassed by his sempai's smooth, firm looking, and naked chest? He shouldn't, so he wouldn't. That's why.

Realizing that he was gawking, he quickly closed his mouth, averting his eyes from the erotic sight on the bed. It wasn't important, now all he had to do was wake his sempai up and they could get going wherever they were on their way to.

"Sempai?" He asked coolly, slowly letting his eyes trail back to Bel, making sure to not let his eyes wander.

No response.

Fran scooted closer to the bed, this time speaking a little louder. "Bel-sempai? Wake up. You're boring me." He said, really honestly (right) hoping he wouldn't have to prod the prince to wake him up.

Still, nothing.

The blond was definitely messing with him! He doubted that his maniac teacher was actually a heavy sleeper; it didn't fit the prince's character. Hesitantly, with a painstakingly slow hand, he reached out, fingers a hairs breath away from his sempai's shoulder.

Then, he had a better idea. Well, if Bel was messing with him, then it served the damn prince right! With a confident hand, he gently reached forward and brushed away the blond locks, staring at the closed eyelids that belonged to his roommate. So Bel really was asleep, eh? His sempai looked... peaceful. It wasn't cute or anything, but it was a nice change from the smirk Fran had already become used to seeing.

"Mmm... Who's molesting me while I sleep...?" A sleepy sounding voice mumbled, and he immediately shot backwards and across the room, embarrassed by his sempai's choice of words. Sadly, the blond locks had dropped back down into their rightful place in front of the prince's eyes, so Fran no longer had a view of those closed eyelids, which he was disappointed about, oddly enough.

"S-sempai? You talk in your sleep. Did you know that? I've been trying to get you awake for the last minute or so now, about time." He said quickly, hoping that the prince had been much too tired to notice his slight falter of words. Fortunately, he was.

"Ah... You took longer in the shower than a girl would, so I figured you died and I could take a nap." Bel said with a cat-like yawn, stretching hugely before his trademark grin came onto his face. He gave his sempai a bored look, not amused by the joke. It was Bel's loss if the prince couldn't manage the find the wonderfulness of showers; that just wasn't something Fran was willing to argue about.

"No such luck, fake prince." He said, running a hand through his wet hair. The prince just continued grinning, apparently now in the habit of ignoring the nickname.

"Ushishi~ Are you wearing the same clothes as before your girly shower? How disgusting." Fran felt his eye twitch ever so slightly.

"I wasn't given any clothes to change into." He stated bluntly, face not giving away any emotion.

"Well don't expect me to let you wear any of my clothes~ only princes are allowed." The prince said his voice alight with amusement.

"I wouldn't want to." He stated honestly, putting his hands in his pockets in a rather bored manner. "Sempai, as entertaining as this conversation is, would you mind telling me what we'll be doing now?" The performance was tonight wasn't it? So didn't that mean they had to go prepare or something along those lines?

"Eh? Well, we go get the schedule from Maria. We usually have the last act, or close to it. They like to save the best for last, as they say~" Bel said, grin widening and a small 'ushishi' resounding from the back of his throat. With that, the blond stood up, once again stretching, his sleeves covering the end of his hands sloppily. He watched in disinterest, boring while letting himself look forward to seeing Maria. The girl had spunk! Just the way Fran liked it, not that he'd ever seriously be interested in her. He just didn't have very much- err- interest when it came to love. He figured he'd know when he'd found someone truly worth going after, so there was no point in looking for it.

"Best for last? Sempai, I really don't see what's so interesting about people throwing knives at each other." He said, letting his hand rub his head sympathetically as the pounding started up again. Probably the damn blonds fault!

"Then you obviously aren't a genius." The prince said with a happy smirk, and with that, he walked right by him, as if the conversation hadn't been going on but moments ago, and out there room door.

And well, what choice did he have but to grudgingly follow?

--

They'd gone and gotten a schedule from Maria, like Bel had said they would. Much to Fran's amusement and joy, he'd noticed that Bel had been blatantly ignored while Maria had paid sole attention to him. Bel had seemed to be very annoyed, making Fran quite smug in knowing that the prince was most likely jealous. Maybe he had a better chance with her than he'd thought? Although, somehow he knew that he wasn't being showered with attention on purpose, no he was pretty sure the girl held some sort of grudge against his sempai. Heh, they should form a club.

After that little meeting, he'd been dragged off by the Cervello twins and- don't tell anyone this or he'll kill you- been given a makeover. Yes, a makeover. New clothes that were exact replicas of his teal suit, black dress pants and frog hat, and... Yep, make-up. They'd even brushed his hair. He felt like a princess! And trust him, that wasn't a good feeling for a guy.

And now? Now it was time for the show to start, and he was feeling ecstatic! He was watching (from the shadows, where no one would possibly be able to see his make-up) Lussuria giggle at the crowd, saying 'I hope you're ready for some TRULY stunning everyone~!' The stage they'd be using wasn't really a stage at all, but actually a small platform with give or take 20 feet in the center of a huge huge room, and after that it reached the crowd which surrounded them on all sides. There was a door among the crowd members where the Varia members would enter when it was their act, and that, is where Fran was currently standing. He watched Lussuria coo at the audience. Technically, the show hadn't started yet, but to the gay man apparently this time was the best part. He'd asked one of the twins about it, they'd said that Lussuria was the MC for the show. Apparently the man had used to have had his very own act, but he'd grown bored and insisted that he wished to 'talk' to the crowd more. Subconsciously, he wondered how he and his sempai would be performing the knife throwing act when the crowd surrounded them on all sides. Wouldn't one side end up not seeing him nearly getting stabbed to death by an insane prince? Then, something else struck his thoughts.

"Hey, where is the fake prince?" He asked Squalo curiously. Did the blond really take that long getting ready for a show? If that was the case, Fran would definitely tease his insane sempai about it later. Sadly though, that was not the case.

"Voii! The damn bastard always appears at the last minute, saying that he was napping! He's just going to not show up one day, I swear." The shark growled haughtily, although he kept his voice down so as not to attract attention from the crowd.

"Sounds annoying." He stated absentmindedly, turning to fully look at his new friend, Squalo. Although the man had the tendency to yell too much, and most likely needed anger management, Fran felt himself considering him a friend. And that was really surprising, considering he gave very very few people that honor.

The man had quite the interesting costume, Fran was entertained to note. It was black and silver themed and the silver matched his eyes almost perfectly, even without the blue tint. He had one of those joker hats with 3 drooping arms/leg/whatever you'd call those, which was also black and blue. The entire outfit appeared to be something you might expect a magician to wear. Also accompanying the shark's silly (but attractive) outfit was make-up! Well, at least Fran wasn't the only one. Squalo's make-up was different; obviously, it was in the form of black tears trailing down the older man's face, almost like rain drops.

"VoOoOOIIiiI! It is, damn it! Then, if he's ever late to an act the fucking boss will blame mefor it!" The silver haired man grumbled angrily, but he seemed to be a little happier when mentioning the 'boss..' An idea prickled at the back of his mind and he forced myself not to grin, else give the idea away.

"You sure talk about the boss a lot, it's like you're in love with him." He noted, pretending to look at his nails absentmindedly.. When he got no response, he looked up in surprise to see a wide eyed, red faced Squalo. Wow, that was a surprise. Was the shark actually blushing? Oh, Fran had definitely found something interesting to play with.

"T-that's not possible. I'm not gay. Oh look, we're starting! Vrahahaha...~" Fran stared at Squalo, trying to convince himself that the shark hadn't just indeed said 'Vrahahaha.' Apparently it didn't work though, because the white haired man also seemed to become aware that he'd just done the silliest thing in the world because his profound blush deepened.

"Oh? Nice outfit by the way. Did Xanxus pick it out?" He teased, although still no emotion eased into his voice. Squalo looked away, letting him know that his boss had indeed had something to do with the older man's odd magician costume. Well, don't get him wrong, it was attractive! The pants were supremely tight, and a few buttons were done down on his shirt to reveal attractive Italian skin. But, not exactly the type of thing Fran would expect to see the stupid long haired man wearing.

"Did Bel pick out yours?" Squalo growled, making him blink blankly. What did the man mean by that? What a stupid question.

"No? Sempai, you're weird.. Xanxus is staring at you." Fran said innocently, looking behind the shark as if he was glancing at said boss. Immediately Squalo twirled around, wide eyes searching through the crowd. When the shark saw no blood red eyes, the angry white haired man turned back and glowered at him. Fran simply smiled innocently, eyes closed in mock. "What's wrong, Squalo? Disappointed? I'm sorry, I must have been mistaken." He apologized, a droning tone.

"You..." The other man snarled threateningly. "I will...." Sensing the danger to his life, he immediately bolted, letting out an actually amused smiled as he ran away from the seething man, chuckling under his breath so he didn't attract any attention. All of a sudden though, the older man stopped, staring back at the show which had just started with watchful hungry eyes. Ooh, creepy. Turning to see what his new friend was so enthralled with, he found himself rolling his eyes.

Of course.

"What's Xanxus doing?" He asked, faking a bored yawn which of course, Squalo took no notice to.

"Shut up, damn brat!" The shark said, not even bothering to look in Fran's direction. Finally, he too decided to watch the boss's act. After all, it was sure to be interesting.

So he turned his attention back to the performance, actually slightly impressed by what he saw. Standing alone in the middle of a small circular platform was Xanxus, a whip in hand. The black haired man looked quite threatening, dangerous even. There was a certain gleam in his blood red eyes directed at the being that held almost everyone in the rooms (could this huge cave like room be called a room?) attention. And what was that being? He'd tell you if he knew. Sadly, he barely knew what a lion and a tiger was. He hadn't had the best education growing up. So it makes sense that the sight of a 10 foot longer 'liger' didn't exactly scare him (he didn't even know what a liger was), more along the lines of befuddlement. Squalo though, seemed to be confident in the boss's talent so Fran figured he most likely had nothing to worry about. The said animal was locked in a black cage, looking extremely threatening as its eyes gleamed from the shadows. Without any warning, Xanxus flicked his wrist, the whip going flying brutally and knocking the lock of the cage, so that the door opened to reveal the beast in all its glory. He stared in awe, as the animal intensely strolled out, circling the around the platform but instead of glowering at the crowd the creature chose to growl at the crowd threateningly (which caused a few people to back away fearfully, while Fran watched rather entranced, fear not even coming to mind). His gaze turned to Squalo however, when he heard a slight intake of breath, informing him that something in the act was going to progress in the next few moments. And sure enough, before he'd even looked back at the presentation he heard quite a few intakes of breaths, and even a scream. Quickly, he reverted his eyes back just in time to see the liger jumping at Xanxus in fiery, while the red eyed man remained calm and bored, once again flicking his wrist and with a swoosh the liger was on the ground, the whip having traveled too fast for even the eyes to pick up. Fran's eyes were the size of dinner plates, and the crowd erupted with applause, but was silenced when the ring leader (Xanxus) held up a hand to silence them in annoyance. Ever so slowly, the man that was clad in gold (yes, Xanxus was clad in gold) walked towards the beast, slowly kneeling down in front of it. Fran didn't even notice himself leaning forward slowly, in awe by the act.

With such a calm that would amaze most everyone, his boss leisurely reached out, scratching the liger behind the ear gently, after which the hand traveled town and scratched the mammal gently, running his thumb and index finger along the line that was the animal's mouth. The great creature made no move to bite Xanxus; in fact, it leaned forward and licked its master tenderly. Fran wondered if this was how amazing all the acts were, they couldn't be considering him and his sempai's act wasn't nearly as life threatening as this was. Well, at least Fran didn't think it was. Finally, the obviously bored black haired man stood up, his pet sitting up with him. And with that, Xanxus bowed, leading the liger back to the cage gradually, not meeting any resistance from the well tamed beast. Once again, the audience beamed, camera's flashing and screams of applause resounding in the room, causing Fran to rub his head as he felt his pulsing hangover that had been almost gone before hurt his head just the slightest bit. Well, at least it was gone for the most part, even if his ears felt like hell because of the cheering now.

"Muooo~! Bossuu~ we were all so worried! Weren't we?" Lussuria asked, one hand on the gay man's cheek in that motherly way whilst the other was raised to wiggle at the crowd. Grins covered their audience's faces as a few bothered to reply while most just waited for the next portion to be announced.

Who would the next act be performed by? Fran hadn't the slightest idea. Squalo shuffled a bit, starting to walk forward. His eyes went wide as he whispered "Squalo! The next act- it's you?" Well no-duh. That made him feel a little silly, but it was the first thing that had come to mind. "Err, good luck?" He said quickly, and Squalo gave Fran a look that all but said 'don't speak, it makes you look like an idiot.'

"Now for our next act! Would everyone please give a warm welcome to my dear beloved friend Squalo? I've heard he's single, ladies!" And so, 'everyone' cheered, and a couple of the girls swooned as the shark walked out towards the platform with a raised eyebrow. He noted that the silver haired man's entire posture had changed, as if all doubts had been erased from the shark's mind and right now Squalo was behind a mask. Was this what performance did to people? Huh, well, the mass of people watching seemed to like it so it couldn't be too bad. Fran was behind a mask all the time, after all.

"VoOOii! Get ready to be amazed, damn it!" The man yelled vehemently at the crowd (oh, maybe the damn shark hadn't changed very much after all. Still had speech problems), causing them to nod and laugh. Wow, what an easy to please group of people. Something felt wrong though, in the pit of his stomach. As if someone were watching him, paranoid wasn't he? But all doubts were forgotten as Fran concentrated on watching his friends act.

"Lovely Squalo here has an absolutely amazing act! As you can see, our lovely Cervello twins..." On que, the two pink haired girls came out; rolling some sort of box that appeared to be around 8 feet tall out with them. "Have brought a box! My wonderful Squalo boy will be stepping into this box! After which the box will be closed and our twins will stab 15 swords into it, skewering poor Squalo! Well, that's what they'll try to do anyway~!" Fran shivered slightly, at the way the enthusiastic and seemingly easing-going Lussuria said the word 'skewer' with such cheerfulness. It was, for lack of a better word, creepy. The assembled people apparently agreed because a few let out gasps of horror.

"Oi, that's not all, damn it!" Said the silver haired man loudly, grinning wildly while striking out to stand in front of Lussuria. "Afterwards, enough water to fill the entire box will be poured in from the top! Someone can come and examine the box if they think this is a joke, of course." Fran raised an eyebrow at how threatening his friend sounded, and it came to no surprise when no one stepped forward. "I didn't think so!" sneered Squalo, and he marveled at how the girls seemed to love the stuck-up act (or not) that the shark had on.

"Awww! Squalo, you can't do that! Bossu said I'm the MC!" Exclaimed a put-out looking Lussuria.

"You were being too slow, ya' damn pedophile."

"Shhh! You're scaring the audience!" Fran let himself smile softly, knowing no one was watching. Well, there was still that prickly feeling as if a pair of eyes was on him, but since he'd long ago given up on pinpointing where it came from he'd labeled it off as his imagination.

"I'm pretty sure you're the one scaring people, honestly I'm surprised that people take their kids to this once they find out that you're here!"

"Waahh! Fran, Squalo's being mean to me!" Fran's eyes went the size of dinner plates as he was unexpectedly brought into the conversation. He felt himself sweat drop a little as Lussuria ran over, wrapping his arms around his waist as if the gay man were truly upset.

"I'm not involved in this." He drawled, putting his hands up in a bored manner as eyes turned towards him, although he didn't really notice, more focused on prying the said 'pedophiles' arms from around his waist with a simple look.

"Fran you're so cold~ just like-!" But the green and red haired man was cut off as one of the pink haired creepy twins coughed, reminding all of them that as entertaining as the short performance of banter was, it was time to get on with the show.

Gladly.

He thought, flicking Lussuria's forehead, whom grudgingly let go.

Before long, the act was finally starting, and Fran was watching with anxious interest. He wasn't worried, no quite the opposite when Squalo walked into the dark box. He was simply curious! The man seemed to have been here for a long time, so he really doubted that something would go wrong with the act after being performed for so long. Things like this intrigued him though, none the less. Supposed magic, tricks, they all held some sort of power over him, like mist. You just had to see through it and it seems impossible but in reality it was actually quite normal, and 'doable,' but it appeared quite different to eyes that didn't have the skill to see through such deception.

The entire room was silent as the two pink haired girls stepped forward, each with one sword in hand. It rose up further and further, and he was almost sure he could hear a few people take a quick intake of breath as it finally stopped. And then, without warning each were slammed down from opposite sides, slicing into the box with a 'shhk' sound (lmao, can we think of anything else that goes in with a shhk sounds?). No sound came from within the box, except for the ring that the sudden movement of swords piercing into something quickly had made, but that had soon faded. And what happened next? Well, 12 more swords were stabbed into the box, 'till Fran actually had trouble seeing the container. Finally, one of the twins (because he had never learned their names and even if he had he doubted he'd be able to remember which one was which) brought the final sword out of a thin package, and without wasting a second thrust it into the box that his silver haired friend dwelled. Everyone watched intently, waiting for the next move to be made. Lussuria's voice, of course, broke the quiet. "Muooo! It always makes me so nervous when Squalo does this! I still don't know if he's going to survive so many swords though, nehh? Now! Let's get onto the next part, drowning Squalo! That is, if he's still alive~!"

While Lussuria talked, the pink haired twin that had not shoved the last sword into the box rolled a ladder towards the box from the side, while the other carried in buckets (yes, buckets) of water. He almost laughed, thinking it looked slightly silly, but of course managed to hold it in.

He watched with feigned boredom, as if he'd seen this act a million times (when in reality he was completely sucked in by it).. One of the girls climbed up the ladder, opening up the top part of the box which had not been stabbed with any sword, and bucket by bucket she began pouring water in. The audience (including Fran of course) couldn't see past the top of the container, so the only sign that the carton was indeed filled with water was that once the last pail had been emptied into the box a slight sheen of water drizzled out of the side.

Everyone watched in silence, completely taken in by what was going to happen next. And what happened next? Fran would be glad to tell you.

Instead of the front of the box being opened like some people might have expected, one-by-one the swords were pushed out from the inside, with a resounding clatter as each landed on the ground. Finally, the last sword was pushed out, and to Fran's awe the front of the carton which concealed his friend was shoved open, revealing a grinning and soaked Squalo. In the silver haired man's hand was one of the 15 swords, and he immediately snapped his eyes over to where its companions lay wondering how in the world Squalo had gotten his hands on it. Clapping and whoops of awe echoed from within the room, making Fran unsure whether the boss' or Squalo's act had been more popular.

Either way, he could see why this place was so well-liked. He'd only witnessed two acts so far and he was actually smiling softly. And he didn't do that often.

"Squaloooo~! You're so amazing! See what I mean ladies?! Isn't he absolutely fantastic? I'm so relieved that my little Squalo's alright~!! Did you all enjoy his little act?!" Lussuria asked, not wasting a breath and managing to beam at the crowd warmly all at the same time. Really, he was amazed that some people had such happiness pouring out of them. Of course, the assembled people all shouted approval, optimistic and joyful in general. "Alrightyy! Quiet down everyone, time to get on with our next few acts!" Squealed Lussuria, not bothering to mask excitement. Really, Fran wondered how something could be so fun (even if it really was amazing to watch) considering the gay man must have seen both the acts over 50 times (if not more).

--

During the next half hour, Fran witnessed two more acts. The next two feats probably weren't as amazing as the first two acts, but really, the ringleader and Squalo's acts had been beyond astonishing (as much as Fran hated to admit it).

The first act had consisted of the twins performing some incredible gymnastics which involved dancing to some song. Quite impressing, when you added the fact they'd been on tilts and hadn't fallen once. Scary though! He didn't understand how girls managed to bend like that. Of course, Fran himself was slightly more flexible than most men, although he'd never confess it to anyone. Somewhere along he'd gotten lost in the acts, once again feeling that slight prickling paranoia, but managing to distract himself by watching the impossible looking cartwheels and backwards handstands that most people didn't even really comprehend.

The next act, what would it have been, the fourth? Had proved to be quite entertaining! Fran had been surprised when he'd seen Maria enter upon the stage, and although most of the actors (or actresses) that he'd seen so far that night had tried to act happy while performing, it seems that the red eyed siblings didn't share that quality and had been their usual cold but cool selves. Endearing, really. First, Maria had walked a tight rope, but not soon after he found her swinging around at a very dizzy-making pace on the trapeze. Twists and turns had caught his full attention and he'd noticed almost a million times that there didn't seem to be any net available for catching the girl if she were to fall. Meep! Damn, that was cool.

And then, there had been the next act. No, not his act. Except, this feat, whatever it was, had gone completely unnoticed by him. Nope, Fran had been completely determined on finding whoever seemed to be blatantly staring at him. He could feel it! On multiple occasions it had occurred to him that it could be the prince watching him, but he'd immediately crossed out that idea. No, the gaze felt much creepier than that.

So as you can imagine, when someone whispered 'boo' in his ear, he nearly had a heart attack.

Of course, nothing that sever had crossed his expression, but he had been caused to immediately whip around only to find himself face-to-face (or should he say cheek-to-cheek) with his sempai. Relief washed over him. It wasn't that relieving, but still, it was comforting to have a distraction from his current paranoia. Within seconds Fran had put five feet between him and the insane prince, and he held back a scowl as the blond 'ushishi'd.'

"Nervous, froggy?" Bel said, grin becoming so large it looked like it might split the prince's face. Haha! That would be hilarious; if that ever happened he'd definitely have to catch it on camera. At the moment though, well at any moment really, it just seemed creepy instead.

"Not really. Why?" He asked, holding a hand up and yawning into it as if the show was boring him and it would somehow prove his point.

"No reason~ Ushishi!" Was his reply, which really wasn't useful but then again, his sempai didn't ever respond with something 'useful.'

Uninterestedly, Fran turned back to the performance, only to find an audience clapping as the second to last act ended.

Oh wait.

Second to last.

Which meant that the next performance was-?

"Muoo! I'm so excited~ finally! Our final act ladies and gentleman! Don't they call these things finales? Oh my I don't know! Anywho~" Something Fran had noticed over the track of the performance: the older green and red haired man tended to get distracted a lot while talking. Probably not the best MC! "This deed will be performed by our very own prince, Belphegor! But we like to call him Bel because he's so cuuuteee! His assistant will also be performing, who actually is our newest member! So without further ado, I'd like to present Bel and Fran! Oh and girls, Fran-kun is just so absolutely adorable! I have a hard time resisting him~" Then there was that thing Lussuria tended to do: make gay comments all the time. There probably hadn't been an act so far that the older man hadn't cooed about how handsome the actors were (except for the performances including actresses, of course).

He wasn't nervous, no, quite the contrary. Just excited. He'd done way too many shows for Mukuro to get butterflies when he'd be simply acting as a performance. Still, he waited for the prince to walk ahead before him, slightly unsure of himself.

Bel, on the other hand, seemed completely at ease. The blond's smile grew with confidence, his ego apparently taking a supreme boost as he walked in the lights and into the 100s of viewer's sights. The way the prince walked, with such self-assurance, completely radiating with coolness. It actually had Fran pulled in slightly, and he had to force himself to follow his sempai out into the lights, his hands by his side as he plastered the adorable fake smile on his face that all the girls he'd met seemed to love. It was only once he'd gotten onto the stage that he noticed something different:

The thing that he'd be standing on the day before, the practicing platform that Bel had pelted knives at, it was different. On the bottom, just below the part Fran was supposedly supposed to stand on, were those... wheels?! And on the very top, those weren't handcuffs were they? Oh my, he was starting to get a bad feeling about this.

"So how this will work, you see, is that my dear little Frannie"-eye twitch-"will step onto this here platform! He will be handcuffed by his arms, and then one of our dear twins will take the honor of spinning this stand! While rotating at an amazingly fast pace, our cute little prince will throw knives at our poor defenseless frog!" Sang Lussuria, saying it all slowly as if speaking (singing) to a child.

Like the idiot he felt like, he let himself be pushed up onto the raised stage- podium- platform- stage- whatever it was, and handcuffed there. His smile never broke, but on the inside he felt like ice. Why the hell hadn't anyone mentioned this to him?! Oh, the prince was so dead.

... That is assuming that Fran himself made it out of this alive.

It was only then, standing up on the podium that could very well be the last place he stood before being skewered by the devil himself, did he notice the prince.

His mouth went dry.

H-he's wearing the same thing... as he was wearing in... the portrait...!

But the portrait had been different. In the picture, stage lights hadn't been directed at the blond, catching hid gold hair and slightly tanned skin and making it sparkle, contrasting deeply with his pitch black clothes and boots. His heart beat quickly, out of something he honestly hoped was fear.

And just as fast as the image of the devil had come, it was gone, and he was spinning. Fran hadn't even heard Lussuria say 'Spin away, twins!' then again, he'd been slightly caught up in admiring- no, not admiring, that was for idiots that actually like insane princes- Bel. He wondered vaguely if his ever standing mask that was always present when on stage had faltered at the sight he'd seen. He wouldn't be surprised, although he'd most likely never be able to look at himself the same way again due to disappointment if he had. Fran never had been one for anything spinning, so instead of keeping his eyes open to meet with the sight of the homicidal grinning prince, his lids slowly shut, waiting for an impact of a knife.

The first one was about an inch to the left of his head but not far enough to hit his arm, and the impact radiated across the board he was standing on although it did not stop the rotating motion. The next did the same, as if electrically charged as the shock of the blade colliding with wood had created a shock wave. The third one, this time by his upper right hand, the same. As were all the others that followed. Until, finally, the board had stopped spinning. Slowly, his eyes opened, slightly numb as he realized he hadn't been skewered. Silence reigned the entire auditorium, and Fran did something he hadn't done in a very long time.

He smiled.

Not the fake smile, a real, honest smile.

And the crowd burst with cheering, applause rang around him. Five impacts had been made, within inches of each of a limb each time. The anger that Fran had felt bubbling up at a certain insane prince had left, instead replaced with unexplainable happiness. It really made no sense! The mass of people around him weren't even really cheering for him, no they were yelling approval towards his sempai. But still, he'd done an act and helped with part of making people laugh merrily in amusement! It made him feel extremely stupid, getting so worked up just because he'd made a few people (100-250) laugh, but it was a warm feeling that didn't want to leave. What was better, all thoughts of paranoia and a certain blond man had left his head! To be replaced with nothing really, but that was alright. Smiling like an idiot who had just suffered the biggest ego boost of all time would be fine for now!

One of the twins quickly let him down (and he stumbled slightly from dizziness, thank god the hangover seemed to have faded or he definitely would not have been able to hold down anything in his stomach) and Fran found himself bombarded by a widely smiling Lussuria and a smirking Squalo. So this was the life of the circus eh? He could definitely get used to this.

"Not too bad ya damned brat, it looks like the fuckin' prince didn't warn ya' about the spinning part though? Yeah, he tends to not do that. It's fun to see the unlucky suckers annoyed expressions though, so we don't tell em' either." Squalo said with a grin, and Fran raised an eyebrow to show that he didn't take offense but he would be scolding the silver haired man for it later.

"Frannie! You were so brave!" Lussuria added on, and Fran gave a small grin that didn't completely break his mask but came awfully close. It felt good to be doted on, even if he didn't deserve it. The hall had cleared out by now; apparently someone working at the circus had motioned the audience towards the exit. Lazily he let his eyes drift over the now empty, auditorium, just to see how large it was.

"Not too bad, kid~ Ushishi. I was hoping the little froggy would piss his pants out of fear though, it would be fun to humiliate him." Bel said with his usual grin, talking in third person for some odd reason. But he spoke to deaf ears, because Fran's attention had been directed to one lone figure that stood, still remaining in the audience. His heart pounded in his ears.

"Fran-kun? Is something wrong? You look pale! Are you going to be sick?" Asked a worried Lussuria, although the faint and recent joy hadn't quite faded yet.

Slowly, the figure walked forward, grinning. No, smirking. The circus was loud from the actors and actresses, hell, even people working with lights. Apparently this had been the first show in the city, so everyone was excited that it was over.

Gradually, Lussuria and Squalo had caught that Fran was looking at someone though, so they too had turned around. Had he been paying attention, he would have noticed that a certain blond had noticed his discomfort even sooner and had immediately turned around to find the source. But that's just the thing, Fran hadn't been paying attention.

"Fran-kun~ My adorable little apprentice. Are you ready to come home?"

...

"Mukuro-sama."
