I come bearing more Evander Nash
lol. Yes. Love it.
This is only and extra scene that I ended up not putting in his storyline when I was making my final draft. I can't remember exactly why I didn't put it in anymore , but I kept thinking about it. So I decided to write it this morning and get it donesies
I think is because I didn't want to have too many 'daily life arc' chapters, and also because I don't like my chapters to be under 4,500+ words. Just a personal preference for my work, so please don't take offense to the statement fellow FFnet authors.
Protocol:
word count: 2,159
[I do not own any KHR characters]
I take claim of Evander fucking Nash.
this is an extra, so no beta work for it.

.Captain.
With a big smile on my face, I walk down the neighborhood road and lick my lips again. That whole fiasco may not have ended with sex, but the way her mouth worked? I shake my head, feeling the hop in my step; her head was an eight point five. Corker scale high. My mouth is pretty much numb now, but it's totally worth it. I had to return such a wonderful favor.
But now I'm lost.
I first let out a sigh and try to remember any landmarks. I laugh because I know that I don't remember any. My focus was all on that Tsukyomi girl. So my eyes dart up to the sky for a little guidance. The sun shows me that I'm heading northwest. "Too bad that doesn't fucking help in the city."
A little more wandering, with a couple more idle sighs, and I find a park. Right now is a great time to take a break. As I pass through the little gates, I watch a small group of kids play happily. My smile fades. Kids… I just avoid them and head for the closest shaded bench I can find.
My hand grips onto the green, plastic-covered bench as I lay myself down. I let one leg just hang over the edge of the seat's armrest while the other just bends. Staring at the leaves hanging above me, my gaze starts to darken with the closing of my eyes. A small wind blows, and I can feel myself falling asleep. I rest my hands under the back of my head until…
"GAHAHAHA! LAMBO-SAN FOUND A SLEEPING MONSTER!"
I feel something crawl on top of me, and feel my ears start ringing. I also can smell sugar. So I open one eye to see the weirdest looking and most terribly dressed kid—in my life. Someone needs to take this kid back to the thrift store and get his or her money back.
I just mutter, "Get lost afro cow."
"This ship belongs to Lambo-san, you get lost."
What an ornery little shit. I'm really tempted to throw his ass in the river basin behind me. I just try to ignore him and close my eye again. Now, think of happy thoughts to sleep to.
I feel something plunge in my nose.
My body whips up, and the kid slides down from my chest and into my lap. "What the fuck!" I glare. "You are goddamn gross!"
"Gahaha!" He shoves his finger in his mouth.
I shudder violently, and then proceed to gag. Fucking kids…
"Lambo!" "Lambooo!"
Girls. I turn my attention. "Kyoko? And…" Dammit, what's her name? Goofy park girl… "And Haru?"
Kyoko's worried expression turns to a smile while Haru cheerfully says, "Ah, Ebi-kun."
I want to grumble… fucking kids… fucking shrimp… But I just rub both of my hands over my face before smirking at them. "How are you ladies?"
They both trample closer only to reveal more kids. Part of me really just wants to leave, but I know if I walk Kyoko home, I can get home. Her walk from her house to mine is definitely stored in my memory since she goes grocery shopping with me. So I just take a deep breath and offer them the entire bench. There's five of them and one of me. Kyoko and Haru sit down, but an older boy that came with them runs off. He runs all the way to the swings and starts having a good time by his self. I would have given Kyoko and Haru the bench no matter what, but the kids are getting it lucky today.
Of course, Kyoko takes the really nasty kid away from me, and a little girl sits in my lap in his place as I sit back down. Haru immediately shows amazement to the fact that I knew she is a girl. I didn't understand how it was amazing; she smells like lilacs and her hands are shaped in a way that you can tell they'll be dainty later. She has the potential to be pretty. A little bit of freckles add charm to a girl. I just sighed and let the girl sit my lap. At least she isn't trying to pick my nose.
"So why are you all the way over here Ebi-kun?"
I laugh, not wanting to answer that question. "I was just about to ask you two the same thing."
Then the cow kid yells, "Lambo-san's servants are treating him to ice cream!"
Kyoko and Haru both chuckle, but Kyoko responds to him. "Lambo, we had ice cream earlier."
"Lambo-san wants some more." Then the kid eyes me. "If you get me some ice cream, I'll give you this grape candy wrapper."
I look at him smugly. "Thanks kid, but I'm not a goat. I don't eat just anything. Better up the ante."
The girls laugh.
"Lambo-san will let you be his servant."
I raise a brow. "Shouldn't you be the one serving me? I am the one buying you stuff."
The Lambo kid looks at Kyoko. "Lambo-san doesn't like this guy Kyoko-nee, he's stupid."
While the girls start giggling again, my fist clenches, and then unclenches with a sigh.
And then Haru chides him. "Lambo, you shouldn't talk to people like that."
The kid sticks his tongue out at me.
After that, the older boy comes over and convinces the nose-picker to go play with him, but the girl still sitting in my lap only stares at me with a smile. I just smirk back, not really knowing what to think of it. It doesn't seem like she's crushing on me like little girls do, but she just keeps smiling at me. It's kind of weird.
Despite the weirdness, Haru, Kyoko, and I just keep talking about stupid stuff while the boys play. A little bit passes until the little girl Haru and Kyoko call I-pin runs off to play with the two boys. While the three of us banter more, I watch Lambo pick on I-pin. I point to a 'rare bird' sitting in a tree behind the girls. They look back, and I peg the kid with a rock. The little asshole needs to be taught a lesson. I laugh more for the fact that only I-pin caught me. She says nothing.
Then Haru asks, "So did you ever find who you were looking for?"
"Ahh, yeah. I forgot I told you about that. Yeah, I found Hayato. I'm not sure what to think of him…"
Kyoko looks at me. "You and Gokudera-kun are very different, but you have some similarities." Then she smiles.
Similarities? What?
"You were looking for Gokudera-kun?"
My brows furrow. "You know Hayato?"
Haru exclaims, "Haru lives next door to Tsuna, and Gokudera-kun is always over at Tsuna house."
"Tsuna-kun?" Like I know who the fuck that is…
Kyoko chuckles. "Sawada Tsunayoshi."
I nod. "Oh, you mean Sawada." Then it clicks. "When Hayato says 'Tenth' is he referring to Sawada?"
Haru decides to answer this one. "Yep, because Tsuna is going to be a Mafia Boss." Now her eyes are getting this really dreamy look to them. "And I'm going to he his Mafia Wife."
She likes Sawada? What the hell is up with that kid, he's like everyone's loser friend. Well, he may be a loser, but he sure as hell can network. I guess we all start out somewhere—wait. Did she say…
"You said Mafia Boss?"
Haru smiles wildly. "Yep! He's going to be the Tenth Boss of the Vongola!"
This guy is a loser that fills people's head with crazy lies. I kind of like him more. That one is pretty good. Just about as good as the shark lie with Gokudera's fan club. I see Kyoko just giggling to the statement, so I just nod and go along with it as well. No sense in killing a girl's fantasy.
The suns starts setting on us as we talk more, and I'm interrupted. We all look over. Sawada and another baby are running into the park. That rascal Sawada looks really out of breath. Wait… where's the baby that was with him? Sawada approaches us and starts his wailing before I can really look.
"Uwah! I didn't know Kyoko-chan and Nash-san were with you and the kids Haru!"
Whoa, they're on a first name basis? Actually, I guess it isn't a big deal since I'm on a first name basis with her too. But I can tell that his intentions are different than mine. He looks at her with puppy dog eyes.
Kyoko speaks. "I heard Haru was going to watch the kids for you Mom today, so I asked to join her."
These are all Sawada's sibilings? Shit… I need a wife that loves playing the nudy games* as much as she obviously does. I've seen five kids already, and three of them look pretty fucking young.
I decide to add. "I was wandering around town, and I ran into the both of them here. We've all been hanging out since."
He looks at me rubbing the back of his head. "Well thank you. You and Kyoko-san both for helping Haru out."
"It's whatever."
Well I don't really know how, but after this, I got sucked into helping them walk the kids home. I ended up carrying I-pin. Sawada mentioned how weird it was, saying the she's normally really shy. I just shrugged it off as she gave me another smile.
"Well, at least she's not acting like she does when she sees Hibari-san."
I ask, "What does she do then."
"She blows up." Then he freaks out slightly.
I give him a skeptical expression.
Haru hugs him. "Hahaha, Tsuna you're always saying goofy stuff."
He flinches. "Uwahh, don't get so close Haru!"
My dubious feeling doesn't leave. That's some weird shit to say, he didn't come off as if he was lying either. In fact, how he freaked out after saying that has me thinking he regrets saying that. I look away, snort, and decide to just act like it didn't even cross me as weird. We all have our quirks—Sawada's is that fact that he says weird shit.
Plus, I don't want to get sucked into anyone else's crap.
Ten minutes more of walking, and we get Sawada and his rat pack home. As Haru is bidding Tsuna farewell and Tsuna is thoroughly refusing her, my skin crawls. My eyes shift around me as I rub the goose bumps off the back of my neck. I feel like I'm being stalked. That shit freaks me out. Reminds of me of when I was a year tenner in Melbourne; that creepy fucking chick who stalked me after that one party. A deep breath pulls in and pushes out with a crack of my knuckles. I'm probably just freaking out.
I haven't fucked with anyone weird enough to stalk me.
Looking back to the group, I watch Haru scrunch her face to Tsuna's denial. It's a cute expression. I mean, Haru is really fucking cute, but like last time I met her, she has been deemed untouchable. Innocent. Virgin. I'm not crazy about either one of these adjectives. They attach and cling, and stealing v-cards is necessarily cool either. It also helps that virgins aren't good in bed; they don't know how to go with the flow.
My forte isn't teaching the basics—let me teach you the shit that'll make you scream.
But I don't know, watching her hug and cling like she does is cute. I want to just laugh at her honestly, but I shrug my shoulders and look for Kyoko. She's pretty much watching from the outside too. But she's watching Tsuna. Damn, what the fuck is going on with these loser Japanese kids pulling these hot girls? It's kind of bullshit if you ask me. Before I can get too annoyed with Tsuna's 'loser-swag*,' I decide to get Kyoko and I out of here. I'm pretty sure Ryohei is looking for her right now, and I also want to head home.
"Hey Kyoko. It's getting kind of late. Let me get you a bite to eat (since I can't remember my last meal) and get you home. I'll call Ryohei and let him know too."
"Alright then."
After some quick goodbyes, a call to Ryohei, and another crawling of my skin, Kyoko and I leave. Kyoko leaves with a smile, and I leave with a scowl. Not only am I buying Kyoko food, but Ryohei decided that he's meeting us at the Udon shop too.
That fucker is always broke.
*nudy games - lol, sex
*swag - sex appeal (it's mentioned a lot in rap songs)
+And anyone notice the I-pin stuff? If you can guess what this alludes to, then I will make you a one-shot (which is a rarity these days), but you have to be pretty spot-on. PM me you guess+

Nice to Meet You, Misako-chan~
