-AND DON'T CALL BACK UNTIL EVERYTHING'S IN PLACE!
*slam of telephone*
Seriously, can't those idiots do ANYTHING without me?
Oh.
What do YOU want?
What?
You want to know how Dino and I met?
That's personal info, you know.
Well, if you already know that, why are you here asking about my love life for?
What?
Harrison sent you?
What for?
*sweatdrop*
Because he was too lazy to tell you the story himself?
Yeah, I know you said that he said that he was too busy, but that usually means that he was just too lazy.
You threatened him with a gun?
Hmm.
Well, if you're that desperate to know, I suppose I could tell you.
It's not like it's a secret or anything.
And everybody else including Dino himself would probably twist the story.
Yes, they're the type of people who would do that.
Let's see...
Dino and I first met each other maybe two years before we met the Vongola Tenth.
It was at a Mafia convention, of course.
We had allied ourselves with the Vongola, and although the Wafia was technically still a young family, we were already extremely powerful and influential.
I still remember…
When Dino first saw me in the halls before the meeting, he patted my head, smiled his angelic smile, and said, "Little girls shouldn't be wandering around the halls without their mommy or daddy."
I punched him so hard, he went flying through the walls, leaving Dino-shaped holes.
I'm just really glad that the other Wafia members hadn't been there, or I would have never lived it down.
…Although now that I think about it, they DID giggle a lot more than usual that day…
…Shit.
So anyway, getting back to my story…
An hour or so after that, Dino and I were formally introduced to each other by the Vongola Ninth.
He's a nice old man, almost like a grandpa who's the Mafia boss of the strongest Mafia family there is, you know?
When Dino and I were introduced, he had this epic face on, like it was the end of the world or something.
I was about to laugh when Dino said a really stupid thing. "Her? This little girl is the leader of the Wafia? The one that's been giving the Mafia so much trouble? But she's only ten years old or so!"
All I'm going to say is that Dino was in the hospital for at least a week when I was done with him.
Well, what can I say?
I was going through my rebellious stage then, you know.
So moving on…
The second time I saw him was during the Annual Vongola Christmas Ball.
Some stupid family decided to crash the party, I forget which idiotic family, so the ball was a mass of panic and chaos.
The Vongola, Varia, Cavallone, and Wafia were working together to try and get everyone out of the place safely before we dealt with the family themselves.
I don't know what happened, but the next thing I knew, part of the ceiling was collapsing on top of me and a wave of storm flames was coming towards me at the same time.
I was bracing myself for the impact when I felt something wrap around my waist and pull me out.
It turned out to be Dino's whip.
He had seen me about to get killed and had saved me.
Now, before you go "Oh, it's a clichéd love story, how boring", you have to understand that I'm not one to start fangirling over someone just cause they saved my life.
Harrison saved my butt plenty of times, every time I use him as a shield actually, and I'm with Dino now, aren't I?
I just nodded and ran off, but I swear that Dino had been watching me run off even though Romario was clearly on the verge of death right next to him.
Apparently, according to him, he had fallen in love with me the first time he saw me and had thought that his saving me had been destiny.
So that was our first meeting in a nutshell.
But, you know, Dino's not exactly the type of person you forget easily.
He's cute, he's the head of the third-richest Mafia family, and, at the time, he had just saved my life.
And somehow, Dino has a strange ability to show up at the best and worst times.
When I had first met him, the Wafia had been still relatively new and yet, for some strange reason, the Ninth Vongola trusted us.
There was a lot of talk about us putting a spell on the Ninth, and technically, with Isabella's illusionary powers, it's not impossible.
Don't give me that look!
No matter how twisted the Wafia is, we would never take control over someone close to us like that!
We have limits too, you know!
But that's what the other families were thinking and the Wafia was going crazy trying to stop all of the rumors going around 'cause we really REALLY hate it when people talk behind our backs, especially about things that aren't true.
Then there were all the attacks on various members of the family whenever they were alone.
Half of our troops were in the infirmary and more were getting injured everyday because the other families were being cowardly and attacking people who were alone with huge groups of people.
In addition to that, my sun and rain guardians were unavailable because they had to help out in the hospital.
The mist and lightning guardians were working overtime to make sure headquarters weren't discovered.
In others words, I had two cloud guardians, two sky guardians, and three storm guardians to work with, if I counted the AB and CMT.
I didn't know what the freak I was going to do.
And top of this, I couldn't stop thinking about Dino and what a jerk he was for assuming that I was a little kid who couldn't take care of herself.
I was distracted and outnumbered.
In other words, I was screwed.
In the middle of it all, Dino dropped by to visit.
He claimed that he was just making a formal visit to welcome us and offer his guidance and any financial help we needed.
I was pissed at him for no reason and told him to go screw himself.
He didn't say anything, but he DID announce that he wanted to check that Wafia was running efficiently and decided to stay for a few weeks.
You have to understand, back then, we weren't exactly the best of friends in terms of relationships and no matter how much he loved me, his loyalty to the Vongola, and especially the Ninth, came first.
He watched me, I know that for a fact, and it was clear that he was suspicious.
So, in order to make this clear, the Wafia, especially the members of the JB and some of the AB and CMT members, are really close to each other.
We've been through a lot together, but nothing was worse than that time.
People were pressuring us from all sides, and then it turned out that some of our soldiers were spies from other families while others were trash-talking us behind our backs.
Somehow, we got it into our heads that we couldn't trust even our best friends.
The family meetings were strained at the best and usually ended with a lot of shouting and screaming.
Wonyoung and Cindi had bad tempers to begin with, and Meagan and Harrison were really being pushed to their limits.
Isabella and Nancy were working around the clock and both were too tired to say anything,
Chiara usually ended up being the person who tried to calm everybody down.
It never really worked and she finally snapped too.
I spent those meetings trying to take deep breaths and calm myself down.
Eventually, Meagan and Harrison started skipping the meetings.
Isabella and Nancy opted to try and catch up on sleep during the times the meetings were scheduled.
Wonyoung, Chiara, and Cindi attended because they felt like they had to, but even they dropped out one by one.
Finally, the day came when I was the only when sitting in the meeting rooms.
It was the day the Wafia went the closest to breaking up, but for some strange reason, I didn't feel sad or angry that day.
I felt peaceful, like I had somehow known that this would happen and whatever.
I just sat at the head of the table with my head in my arms for the rest of the day.
I knew that I should go and see what else there was to do, but I didn't feel like doing it.
It was sometime around dinnertime when someone entered the room.
I didn't bother looking up.
I heard footsteps, then something warm was draped over me: Dino's jacket.
He spoke first. "Shouldn't you be with your family? They're getting worried, you know."
I didn't answer.
It was silent for a while.
I was starting to wonder whether he had actually expected me to answer when he spoke up. "It's not the end. You still have plenty of ways to win."
I closed my eyes before answering. "We don't have anyone we can rely on. The Vongola didn't come to help us."
Dino was silent for a while before speaking. "You still have me."
I snorted, my eyes still closed. "Right. We barely know you. How do we know we can trust you?"
Dino huffed. "You can trust me. I'll help you! You'll be fi-."
"Shut up."
I was getting angry now. "Don't you get it? It's over for us."
I got up and started walking out of the room.
As I did, reality set in and the weight of my words sank in.
"It's over…"
And I felt like crying as I walked out of the room.
Dino was quiet, then suddenly called out. "They're waiting, you know!"
I just ignored him and kept walking away.
You're really hooked, aren't you?
Hn, I guess it is pretty interesting.
Hang on, let me get something to drink.
*Walks away and gets something from the mini-fridge in the room*
Do you want something?
No?
Okay…
*walks back and settles in chair again*
So where was I?
Oh yeah…
So after that, the mood of the headquarters changed.
Before, it had been tensed, as if expecting an attack sometime soon.
After that day, it felt more like we were tired and we just wanted it to end.
A couple of days later, a challenge came from the families opposing us.
They wanted a fight, a simple, straight-forward fight.
We agreed.
If we won, we'd be fine and life would go back to normal.
If we lost, then the Wafia would break apart
Like I said, simple.
Then matters got a bit more complicated when Dino announced that the Cavallone family would fight besides the Wafia.
For the first time, people started to doubt the rumors.
The boss of the Cavallone family wasn't stupid; he had, after all, managed to pull his family back from the brink of bankruptcy and make it one of the most powerful Mafia families.
Families that had opposed the Wafia before dropped out one by one and took up a more neutral stance.
Eventually, what was a force of twenty Mafia families shrank to a force of five.
I honestly don't remember them anymore.
I mean, I don't have to.
The Ninth made sure the families that opposed us were all punished in some way or another.
Really?
You think that they deserved getting sent to the Vindice?
Hmph.
I would have just killed them off, but whatever.
Thinking back on the battle, I still can't believe that had been us.
We fought extremely badly in the beginning, probably even worse than five-year-old Lambo.
Yeah, I know, that's REALLY bad.
It was just…
Our hearts weren't into the battle.
We weren't connected like a family should be.
It was Dino who brought us back together.
Well, it was more like he revived me and I got the others together.
It was stupid; I hadn't been looking behind me, which is a stupid mistake to make when enemies are surrounding you ON ALL SIDES.
Yeah, I know, I know, what can I tell you?
We were all idiots back then.
I think someone threw something at me, I didn't turn around in time for me to see clearly, but Dino got his whip around me and dragged me out of danger.
He kept me next to him and wouldn't let me fight, like he was some sort of knight and I was a princess he was trying to rescue.
Except there was one problem.
The Wafia Primo is not some sort of petty airheaded princess that needs to be saved all the time.
While I was watching him fight, I started wondering when I had become so pathetic and pitiful that someone else had to fight for me.
And it wasn't just me, but the entire Wafia.
We were letting the Cavallone fight for us.
It was pathetic.
Something changed in me and I suddenly shouted to the other Wafia members.
"BAKAS! WHY THE HELL ARE WE LETTING THE CAVALLONE FIGHT FOR US?"
They stared at me blankly.
I continued shouting. "WE'RE THE WAFIA, AREN'T WE? WE CAN FIGHT OUR OWN BATTLES! THIS IS THE FINAL ONE! IF WE LOSE NOW, THE WAFIA'S FINISHED!"
They just kept on staring at me.
Then, Isabella suddenly grinned, twirling her trident. "So you're finally back, baka Primo?"
Meagan grinned too. "What took you so long?"
Cindi snorted. "After all your talk about being the strongest…"
Chiara smiled. "It's good to have you back."
Nancy raised her eyebrow in surprise. "Someone actually missed the sound of her voice coming from the other end of the house?"
It was my turn to stare blankly.
"Eh?"
"I told you that they were waiting for you."
I turned to Dino. "What?"
Dino smiled. "For a while, you lost your will to win. Your flames were weak. You were weak."
I opened my mouth to protest, then shut it.
He was right, I had been weak.
Dino gestured to the guardians. "And in turn, they became weak. A family without its boss will collapse, you know."
Throughout the entire emotional scene, Wonyoung and Harrison had been trying to tug Wonyoung's katana out from the wall where it was stuck.
Everybody sweatdropped as they watched them for a while until Cindi finally took pity on them and got it out of the wall.
Harrison looked out into the sea of fighting people and sighed tiredly. "You do know that we might be killed, right?"
Wonyoung stretched her arms upwards and ruffled her hair as she replied. "But it's all or nothing, so what else can we do but fight? It's kill or be killed."
I looked around at everybody. "Kill or be killed, eh? Kekekeke…"
I started laughing darkly as an evil aura surrounded me.
The others backed away nervously.
I twirled the X-gun in my hand, and it suddenly transformed into a black umbrella with a sharp pointy metal tip.
Isabella raised her eyebrows. "You're finally going all out, Primo?"
Meagan grinned. "When's the last time we've been serious about fighting?"
Cindi shrugged. "A year, maybe? No, more likely two…"
Wonyoung shook her head. "It's been closer to three years, I think."
Dino blinked at us, not understanding. "Wait...What? Going all out? What are you guys talking about?"
Nancy glanced at him. "Do you really think we've been going all out against these idiots?"
Dino blinked some more. "But…If you guys could have beaten them, why didn't you do it before?"
Harrison shrugged."Too lazy?"
Dino looked like he wanted to slam his head into a wall. "What? You were too LAZY?"
I turned away, feigning innocence. "He said it, not me."
Dino sighed and looked at us. "But…You guys were using your weapons and everything! How were you guys holding back?"
We all gave him a look.
He stared back. "What?"
Chiara sighed. "Our outfits are missing something very important."
Dino looked us up and down, his eyes finally stopping on our hands. "Where are your rings?"
We grinned at him and lifted up the chains we were wearing around our necks.
At the ends were seven beautiful rings and, in Nancy's case, a charm bracelet.
Dino stared at them in disbelief.
We grinned maniacally, put on the rings and bracelet, and let loose the wrath of the Wafia.
Needless to say, we won.
…Now that I think about it, all you wanted to know was how Dino and I met, right?
Looks like I got a little carried away there…
*sweatdrops*
You want to know how Dino and I got together?
*blushes*
Well…This and that happened…And…Yeah…
W-Well, just go ask someone else!
Everybody knows the story anyway!
Wait, NO, DON'T ASK ISABELLA!
Go ask Chiara, okay?
No, wait-!
JUST DON'T ASK ISABELLA!
Yup yup. And that's how the two Bosses got together.
As for our rings, there's another reason why we didn't go all out (other than us being too lazy), but that'll be explained in another drabble.
Review please!~
