Hey, missed you, loved you, all that! MWAH!

Question: How long do you think this whole story should be? I'm new to posting stories on this site, so I'm not exactly sure when to stop and stuff. I'm thinking either seven-ten dates (including our lovely already done dates)? Leave me a comment telling your opinion. It counts! :D

And also, those who were asking to include BL and those who didn't want Boy Love...IDK. :/ I'm going to make it a light friendship kind of thing, okay? Leave me your opinion for that, too. :|


Title: Date Me!

Previously on "Date Me!"...

Hibari grabbed the nearest vase. "Tell me who you are, or I'll bite you to death."

"...your wife."
He widened his small eyes, and suddenly recognized who the lady in front of him was.

"Tre, due, uno.."

"Reborn!"


Date Me!:

Between the Nose and the Lips!


"Kusakabe-san told me that Hibari-san's been missing for a while."

"I'm pretty sure that's good news!"
Gokudera and Tsuna were sitting up in sleeping bags in Tsuna's house, having yet another sleepover.

"Don't say that! I'm just worried," Sawada stared at the television in front of them, which was playing the famous dating show on mute.

"W-would you worry about me if I went missing?"

"Of course! I would worry about everyone I care about!"
Gokudera silently 'kya-ed' in his mind, while Tsuna, oblivious to his guardian's feelings, searched for the remote so he could unmute the program.

"So Gokudera, who do you think will be the next date for Chrome-san?"

"I don't know," Hayato lowered his voice, "hopefully not you."

"Did you say something?"

"N-N-N-N-NO!"

"C'mon, Gokudera! Tell me!"

"It wasn't anything, tenth!"

"As your Vongola Boss, I command you to tell me!" Tsuna had said that, meaning for it to be a joke; but of course Gokudera had to take it seriously.

"I s-s-said..." the light-haired boy flushed a deep shade of red, "I-I didn't want y-you to go on a date with that g-girl because...to me, you're...you're...yo-,"

"REBORN!"

"Hey, the volume's working! Finally!" the young boss grinned, completely forgetting about his friend's confession. Gokudera slumped down in defeat.

"The screen is spinning! I wonder who it'll be?"

"Eep! Kyoko-chan looks so cute in that dress!"
Gokudera sighed at Tsuna's fanboy squeal. He watched Haru shout random comments into her mic. I bet that girl would be really pretty if she weren't obsessing over my Juudaime... What the hell am I thinking?

"Don't you think it'd be kinda fun if we got to be on the dating show?"

Definitely not. "Maybe. Why?"

"You get to go on TV! And you can get a free date! Plus, I could get to know my mist guardian better! Don't worry, Gokudera, I don't like Chrome-san! Haha!"

"You don't like her? Even though she kissed you?"

"Nope!"

He slightly smiled at Tsuna. I'm glad...

"Hahi? I feel so bad for you, Chrome-chan! I can't believe you'll have to go on a date with that guy!" Haru, looking a bit jealous, was hugging the eye-patch girl in sympathy.

He half-panicked. What if Tenth is the next date?

"It's not that bad, Haru-chan! You even said that he's actually pretty cute, once!"

Gokudera crossed his fingers under his blanket, hoping that Mukuro's vessel wouldn't steal his best friend away from him.

"I never said that! Anyways, we'll have to tell the audience watching through their televisions. The next date is..."

"Oh, this is so exciting!" Tsuna kept his eyes on the screen.
Please not him...please not him...pleaaassseee.

"Hayato Gokuderaaa~!"

Good, it's not him! Whew. Wait, WHAT?

"EHH? OH MY GOSH! IT'S YOU!" Sawada gasped loudly and pointed with both hands at his companion.

"N-no way! NOOO! Kami-sama, why?" Gokudera was dying inside.

"I can't believe it! EEK!"

"And let's see...the two'll be going on a tour of Nanimori Preschool!"

"Kill me now, Tenth! I can't handle this pain!"

"No, I can't! I don't know how to deal with this shock either!"

Ring, ring!

"Don't pick up the phone! It might be them!"

"I don't think I can pick up the phone, Gokudera! I'm too surprised!"


"Can't believe she's still doing this show," Chikusa glared at the crappy TV, "I'm so disappointed in her. What's gotten into Chrome-san? And her loyalty to Mukuro-sama and us has become...ignored! It's disgusting me!"

Ken raised his brows.

"Sorry, Ken. I'm not usually like this. It's just-," he let out a grunt-sigh, "it's getting a bit out of hand to me."

"Oh." The blonde yawned, "I'm going to bed. Good night!"
Even though he laid in bed for hours, he didn't get a wink of sleep for the whole night.

I wish Chrome would just go back to being Nagi.


"I can't believe I'm doing this," Gokudera grunted as he walked into the studio.

"I can't believe you're doing this, either! Tch!" Haru greeted him at the front, handing him a stack of stapled papers. "That is your contract. Since you don't know how to read, I'll explain for you."

"I know how to read, you old hag!"

"Silence!" she cleared her throat, "You can't harm Chrome-chan in any way nor the camera-men. Don't do what Hibari did; once we find him, he will have to pay large expenses. You can't damage the property of the equipment, or the property of the area in which you will have your date, unlike Hibari, who will have to apologize and pay the landowners of the burnt-up land. Also-,"

"ACK!" the boy next to her made a choking noise and fell to the ground.

"What the hell, now?" Haru made a frustrated glare.

"My brother's here!" Bianchi came running out of the dressing room with a mature smile plastered all over her face.

"N-no! Why? UWACK!"

"Oh, my! I forgot my shades..."

"KAMI-SAMA!" Could this day get any worse? "WHY DO YOU HATE ME, KAMI-SAMA?"

Thwack!

"That outta shut him up! Jeez!"


Where am I? Hayato woke up, vision blurry. Blinking, he realized he was in some sort of small car, laying down, nose facing the ceiling and head resting on something very soft and sweet-smelling.

"S-storm guardian! You're a-alive!"
A petite face came into view, a familiar one... Chrome Dokuro?

Gokudera was curled up, head in Chrome Dokuro's lap, both in a car, which is never a good place to be when you just woke up from being unconscious. What the fuck? He quickly jerked up, hitting his head on the roof of the car.

"Easy back there," the driver called.

"What the hell did you do to me? Where are you taking me?" the boy reached for small bombs, but they weren't there, "Where are my bombs?"
Chrome jumped, startled.

"H-haru-chan and Bianchi-san took them a-away from you!"

"What?"

"We're going on a date, r-remember?"

Oh, yeeaahh. SHIT. "Where are we going?"

"Nanimori Preschool. We're in a t-taxi, and the driver said that we'll be arriving soon," the girl looked away from Gokudera, who seemed to have a dark aura seeping off of him.

"Destination reached, miss! Don't worry about payin'; them producers already got me some 'um. Have fun, you two! Y'all look like a lovely pair," the taxi driver winked at them from the driver's seat, and waved his hand as if to shoo them out. Chrome blushed and nodded, opening her car door.

"Let's go, G-g-gokudera..."

Don't call me by my name, you vessel. "I'm coming."

They walked over to a wide building, which was supposed to look like a school for toddlers. A red-haired woman dotted with freckles, probably in her forties, approached them.

"Hello! My name is Miss Mary, the owner of this school! I'll be guiding you today!" she eyed the both of them and giggled, "My, you two look really cute together!"

"Th-thank you! My name is Chrome, C-chrome Dokuro!" the girl beside Gokudera replied a bit too loudly and quickly.

"Eh...Gokudera," he said it coolly, as if he didn't care. And he didn't really care.

"Let's get going!" the older woman led them inside the school to a classroom, "I've been running this school for ten years! I came all the way from America to start this business, and look at this wonderful school now! One of the top recommended preschools of Japan."

As the woman blabbered and occasionally scolded some random children running around, Gokudera took the chance to peek at Chrome. Not that he cared. Just curious.
She had her usual attire, without the trident, her eye beaming all around. He thought she actually looked pretty cute, if you hid the fact that she was missing an eye and some of her inner organs. He zoned out on watching her pineapple go up and down and up and down and up and down...then he felt pain on his right arm, the one that wasn't in his jean pocket.

"YOW!" Hayato glared daggers at his hand, where a little boy was biting, "What the fuck? GET OFF!"

"You said a bad word!" another toddler pointed an accusing finger at him. Gokudera shook the kid off, and a whole group of kids were suddenly surrounding him.

"GET HIM!" He was tackled to the ground by five-year-olds, squirming around like worms.

"Get off of me, you twerp! Cha!" The grown teen fought against the children harshly, pushing and hitting, ready to get out his ring and box any second. Where are the fucking supervisors here?

Then, he saw light. The kids lessened. A hand was pulled out in front of him.

"Are you okay?"

It was the one of the most glorious moments in his life (the first being Tsuna telling him that he could be his right-hand man). Chrome had saved him somehow, and the little students were scattered on the floor, twitching.
At that moment, the eye-patched, pineapple-haired, twig-skinny, white-pale girl seemed half as feminine and ten times more beautiful and girlfriend-worthy. He quietly took her hand and stood up, mouth slightly open and eyes glued onto her.

Should I say thank you?

"We should leave as quickly as possible. I-I think that Miss Mary-san wouldn't be very happy knowing that we b-beat up her children."

He nodded, feeling like he could hear his heartbeat race. I need to say something, before this gets awkward!

"Oi..."
Chrome looked up at him. Gokudera put on his game face.

"I'll race you out!"

"Hah?"

"Onetwothree-GO!" he sped off out of the classroom, as fast as he could.

"E-EH? NANI? W-WAIT!" he heard his companion's voice as she tried to catch up with him. He chuckled. He was going to win; men are proven to be faster than woman! Psh.
Out of nowhere, a large hole appeared in the hallway. One of her illusions?

"Ah-!" Gokudera fell in.

"Sorry, Gokudera-san!" her voice was closeby, it was about to come towards the hole he fell in... Then, he saw her foot attempt to jump over the hole (also gaining a nice view of her blue panties), so he jumped up to grab her foot and pulled her down.

"A-acha!" She fell into the hole with Gokudera.

Their joints were tangled, body pressed close together. They seemed to be in a very...complicated position. It was even more complicated due to the fact that her lips had landed smack in the middle of his nose and mouth, his lips resting on her chin.

Chrome and Gokudera stayed in that position for a while, due to shock, until he freaked out.

"G-G-GET OFF OF ME!"


"Kyo-kun! Where were you yesterday? Those game show producers just wouldn't stop knocking on my door! They searched my whole house for you! I felt so violated!"

"Hn."

"Plus, Hibird wouldn't sing the Nanimori theme song because you weren't there! It was horrible!"

"Hn."

"Kyo-kun?"

"Tetsuya. I'll be upstairs. I need to think. Do not disturb or I'll bite you to death."
Kusakabe gaped at the boy. Since when does that guy think?


"Ciassou, Tsuna."

"Oh, hi, Reborn."

"How are you doing?"

"I don't know. I'm a bit worried that Gokudera might freak out and kill Chrome on accident, vice versa."


Gokudera and Chrome were now situated on a bench in a nearby park, having a Chinese takeout.

"S-sorry again, G-gokudera-san..."

"You better be sorry.."

Obviously, the atmosphere was uncomfortable.
The pair ate in silence. But of course, silence is always broken by the shameless.

"OCTOPUS-HEAD?"

"Gokudera and Chrome-san?"

"VOII?"

"Chrome-chan?"

"Oh my~!"

Standing behind the bench were Ryohei, Yamamoto, Bel, Squalo, and Lussuria.

"LAWN-HEAD? BASEBALL FREAK? VARIA MEMBERS? What the hell're you doing here?"

"Well, me and this guy," Sasagawa pointed at Takeshi, "wanted to have an extreme battle of baseball and boxing combined together at the park, but then these extremely weird Varia dudes showed up, so we couldn't fight! Then we found you! This is awkward to the extreme!"

"What are you doing with Chrome-chan?" Belphegor asked, suspiciously.

"I'm on a date for that damn dating show!" Gokudera shouted, because everyone else was shouting, "and what're you doing here?"

"Oho! We were sent out to get some tequila and vodka at the liquor store for Levi and Boss! Bel-kun told Squ-sempai that going through the park would be a shortcut! Then we got lost and ran into these idiots!" Lussuria pointed at Ryohei and Yamamoto.

"Tell me the real reason why you're here, Grassy! You're here to train to steal my spot as the right-hand man, aren't you?"

"Extremely uninterested!"

"Yes, you are!"

Chrome sighed as she watched her date and Ryohei brawl, and eventually Squalo and Lussuria joined in.

"How was your date with Hibari and this freak?" Belphegor approached her.

"Interesting..."

"Not as good as our date, right?"
The blond prince obviously felt something towards Dokuro, and he thought that something would come out of their relationship and friendship. He felt like there was a magnet in both of them, because he would meet her wherever he went. He thought that his string of fate was tied to the one-eyed girl. Bel believed in that.

"Maybe," the purplette smiled.

"Oi, Gokudera! Don't leave your date waiting! Sorry, Chrome-san," Takeshi was pulling at Gokudera's arm and flashing a nervous smile towards her.

"E-eh? No, it's fine..."

"Tch! It's still on, Lawnmower! You'll never be his right-hand man!"

"I told you, octopus, I extremely don't care!"

"Whatever! Let's go, Chrome!" He pulled away from Yamamoto and yanked Dokuro away from Bel to leave the park and go home.

"Waah!" she squeaked, dorkily. They disappeared from the area, leaving their leftovers on the public bench.

"Haha, that was fun!" the baseball boy laughed in his slightly-annoying-happy-go-lucky laugh, scratching the back of his head, "let's go home, Ryohei! We can visit my dad's sushi bar!"

"Yeah! I'm hungry to the extreme!"

As soon as those two were gone, Lussuria finally screeched.

"Belphegor! You can let go of my arm, now! Your nails are killing me! Why are you even doing that anyway? Oww!"

"You were about to try to hit on Chrome-chan, weren't you? Ushishi~!"

"Wha-? NO!"

"Voi! You idiots! Let's go get the drinks before they get mad!"


"Isn't that Chrome-chan from that dating show?"

"Oh my gosh! She is!"

"And that's Gokudera, that hot hunk!"

"EEEK!"

Hayato and Chrome were stomping through the town, searching for the big studio.

"Where the hell is that place, anyway?" He seemed to be forgetting that he was holding her hand.

"U-um, you can leave me at Kokuyo Land; I'm sure y-you know where that is," Chrome quietly said, blushing slightly.

"Oh, I see Kokuyo Land right there!" They turned and arrived in front of Ken, Chikusa, and Chrome's house. "That was fast!"

"Thank you."

"Yeah."

The octopus and the pineapple stood in silence. They heard ninety's-Elvis-style music playing nearby, probably from a drunken teenager's car.

Chrome glanced at Gokudera, and thought hard to find a way to thank him for the nice date. Maybe a greeting? Like what I did to Boss?

He felt Dokuro's eyes burning holes into the side of his face, but he wouldn't dare to face her. Then, the scent of chocolate neared his face, tingling his senses. Through the corner of his eye, he could see her moving closer... Gokudera turned to see.

"Oi, what're you- mmph!"
Thanks to his dumb move, her lips, aiming for his cheek, had landed right between his nose and his lips. Again.

"Mm?"

"MMMMM?" Gokudera pulled away, embarrassed. "W-w-w-whaaa-? I-I'm-no-don't-touch-rah-! B-bye!"
The storm, red faced, ran off, stumbling a bit. Mist was flustered; the pineapple was a tomato. Hah.


Chikusa wasn't home. It was just Ken, being a lazy ass, feeding off of some chips and refusing to take a bath. He felt a little down in the dumps lately; didn't know why.

The blonde was watching a young girl help an old man across the street through the large, broken windows of his home.

"I'm so bored."

His voice echoed off the walls.
He frowned when he caught sight of Chrome and her date for the day, holding hands and arriving in front of his lair. They stood there for a while, until she leaned in and kissed him, from the angle in which it seemed like it was on the lips. Ken felt his heart break a bit more.

He watched them both turn red, and the boy run away.

I've known her the longest. Even before she met Mukuro-sama!

He heard the door open in the next room.

"Ken? Chikusa?"

Pretend you're asleep, pretend you're asleep!

"Ke-... O-oh, you're sleeping..."


"Hellooooo!"

"Welcome to the Greatest Dating Game Show of All Time!"

"With your hosts-,"

"Haru-chan and Kyoko-chan!"

"Starring-,"

"Chrome-chan!"

"H-hi..."

"First off, we'd like to say a big thank-you to all of those watching this show! It's getting quite popular in Japan!"

"Second, we want to tell Tetsuya Kusakabe and Hibari Kyoya that they will have to meet up with us and discuss something!"

"Third, this is to our recent date! Gokudera, you are in big trouble!"

"And lastly, let's see how our date went!"

"Hit it, Director!"

The audience faced the screen, but nothing played.

"I said, 'hit it, Director'!" Kyoko repeated. Soon, a man with a clipboard and headphones came out from behind the stage.

"Sorry, folks, but the camera-men said that in the beginning of the date, the boy had been fighting against some children, and kicked the cameras and camera-men on accident... the camera-men were in a state where they were unable to record the date and the cameras with the footage of the date already taped is broken. Sorry, again."

"Kya! Gokudera-kun is so feisty!" a fangirl from the audience was heard.

"Gokudera did what?"

"Calm down, Haru-chan!"

"I'm going to kill him!"

"N-noo! Um, let's just skip to the interview!"

The screen turned on, and showed a grumpy Gokudera.


Hayato felt a vein pop out of annoyance. Two men, one with a big ol' camera, were following him around everywhere.

"Get that camera outta my face!"

"We need to interview you, sir. It's part of your contract!"

He groaned. "Fine. What?"

"If you could rate your date with Chrome-chan, what would you rate it?"

Over nine-thousand... "Negative zero!"

"Sir, that's not a real number," the man with the mic scowled at him.

"So?"

"Well, now, umm... If you could rate Chrome herself, what would you rate her?"

Beyond infinity! "Five out of ten."

"Would you go on another date with her if you could?"

Tell him the truth.

"Sir, are you okay?

"Director, I think he's not breathing!"

"Yeah, he doesn't look to goo-,"

"Yes."

"What? Sir?"

"I'm not repeating!" Gokudera turned on his heel, and walked away.

"Sir? Gokudera-san?"

"Hey! Where are you going?"


"Weeelll. That was weird!"

"I know, right!"

Chrome nodded, confused.

"Anyways. We gotta find out who the next date is!"

"But this time, we're going to do it a bit differently! Chrome-chan is going to choose who her next date will be!"

"She will choose out of this hat of cards!" Haru lifted up a magician's hat.

"Her eyes will be closed, of course!"

"Okay! Are you ready Chrome-chan?"

"Y-yeah..."

"Then, reach in!"

Chrome shut her eyes as tight as possible, and stuck her hand in the top hat.
