chapter 10:
It was a beautiful day without any clouds, not too hot, not too cold, the birds were singing, the trees were blooming. And on such a day, I was walking with my beloved little brother to school, for the start of the next semester, after my usual (by now) morning routine.
It was after we past the school gate that we separated, as the 2nd and 3rd graders class arrangements were not exactly in the same spot.
When I came to the board, to see where my name was, I found that I was in the same class again and with Ryohei too. Well, that's some good and bad news at the same, I laughed nervously to myself. I also noticed that the girls were not going to be in the same class. I wanted to jump with all of my might when I saw that. They were not going to be nagging me the whole year!
Once the class has started, the teacher told us that we needed to get a class president. I was looking around the class, looking for someone good to promote, until a guy rose up and said, " I want to nominate Ami-chan. She was the top student last year and is really friendly." Haha, yeah right. But now that I look a the guy, I recognized him. He was one of the guys that was asking me for help with english several times. Hmm~, he himself is actually not stupid, why nominate me?
"Yeah, I agree. Ami would be a good choice." A girl from behind me agreed to this, awkward for me, event. "B-but, I am j-just, I know..." I tried to decline, but it didn't work, as the teacher also agreed after receiving several nods from the students. So in full terror of getting a highlight spot and stand out too much (I don't really care to stand out when it comes to grades, because I work hard to get them, but just getting a spotlight out of nothing is scary.)
"Lonstanu-san, can you please come forwards." Can you please TRY to learn how to pronounce my surname! Gee~, although it's been almost half a year that I've been going to this school, I still can't get the fact that the teachers can't pronouce my surname over with, it's annoying! "H-hai, sensei." I looked down at the ground, panicking of what I should do next. Though when I got to the front of the class, and I saw the way all of them were looking, like they were really glad for choosing me, I gave up. Maybe it wouldn't be that bad.
So, now I'm officially class's 3-A student prez. "Thank you everyone for choosing me as your class prez," I bowed to the class, "I hope I'll able to reach your expectations." The class clapped, there were some whistles too. Now I can't fail them. I sighed, thinking of my sheduel becoming even more packed than it was before.
So now that it was my first day as a prez, I got straight away some work to be accomplished. Oh yeah, that's just great, exactly what I need when I want to see how my little bro is doing. Sarcasm always eats me whole. I was getting quite irritated at the AMOUNT of work I had to accomplish. Did I become a secretory for the director? And the noise outside wasn't helping. When I opened the window to shout at them 'shut up!', I saw that it was again some dudes trying to hit on some pretty girls.
"Hey, you!" I looked at them coldly, "whatcha think you're doing?" It took some while to comprehend the question that I asked, or to think of a good way to answer, because they were just blankly staring at me like some lost puppies. "Don't touch the girls." I sighed, trying to make it easier for them to understand. They took their hands from the scared girls, slowly but surely, they were also staring at me at the same time.
"Hey, isn't that..." One of the guys finally started talking. Then one of the girls also looked at me. What's their problem? "Omg, it can't be, right?" Yeah, I would like to know what I am as well, why don't you just spill it? "No, it's definitely her." The other girl also started to look at me. "What are you blabbing on about?" I demanded from them, it was getting over the boarders. I don't remember there to be gossips about me, or was it those girls from last year that decided to do a little prank on me, but as I told you, we finished the year with mutual feelings.
"Aren't you THE Hibari Kyoya's girlfriend?" The first girl asked. I blanked out. "WHAT?" ...was the only thing that was on my mind. "Where did that even come from?" i rose my tone to a higher pitch. No, seriously? Kyoya's girlfriend? He hardly considers me as a good enough match for a punching bag, not to mention girlfriend? I mean COME ON people! I mean, yes, he has a good-looking face and all, but his aura irritates me, not to mention almost kills.
When they saw my reaction, it probably looked that I was embarrassed or something, because my face became red from all of that. "It's ok. Don't worry, we won't criticize you on your choice, some people have just weird tasted after all." The other girl was sounding like she was trying to calm me down, "But I'm no..." I tried to grab my sanity and put this in order, but it wasn't working. After all, today was going like I wanted to at all.
Anyways~, I tried to say the truth, but was interrupted, because the group was starting to talk in between themselves. "But you know, I never imagined Ami-senpai dating THE Hibari of the Discipline Committee." The first GUY said. Wait, are they also into this stuff? "Ye, Ami-senpai is like an angel that is trying to help anyone she possibly can, and Hibari-senpai is like...well, you know, the devil himself." The other dude started proving the point. "But, I heard that Ami-senpai can kick butts too." The girl B raised her fist in amusement. "No, no, no, no~, you guys don't understand this." Girl A, the blond was shaking her head in disapproval. "It's like full opposites attract each other." She said. That doesn't even make sense. "It's called LOVE~" she raised her arms into the sky, and the others in the group started clapping, as if she just gave a performance. I felt like turning into stone.
"WAIT!" I couldn't listen to their crazy talk anymore. "We're not d-d-dating, or anything of the sort. Actually we hardly consider can be considered friends. Even that would be over the top thinking." I struggled to say these words. I never did, or HAD to say them, so I was totally panicking.
"But, you gave him Valentine chocolates, right?" Dude A asked a rhetorical question. "What about the hospital? I heard you were taking care for him." Girl B jumped on the Dude A. A drop of sweat came on my back and cheek. "What about the time he came to help you when you were struggling with the seniors?" How am I suppose to know that? What ever goes in Kyoya's mind does not ever make sense. "Most of the things are just what I would do to anyone, if they were close enough to me, or I felt obliged." I lied with a straight face, which is hard to keep.
"You guys should stop teasing Ami-senpai." A happy-go-lucky voice that I was already very used to, appeared from the back of me, which made me jump slightly. "T-Takeshi?" I asked, not knowing what he was doing here. "Yo, senpai, I came to pick you up to go to the shop." He told me. "Oh, right." I palm faced myself, I totally forgot about work. "Muu~, Yamamoto-kun is such a laimo~." The blond complained. Takeshi looked down from the window, "but you guys can see that Ami-senpai doesn't like it, I mean, think if someone said that you two were dating, although you were friends." The dude B and the blond blushed a bit. Wait...they were friends? Oh, that's just great, why did I start this in the first place?
"But we wanted to see Ami-senpai's reaction to this. She is always just so serious. We wanted to see if senpai can relax sometimes and not care about what kind of face she makes. The guy A asked. How am I serious? I tried hard to remember the last time I was serious, but only remembered how I was having fun with Tsuna and everyone else. "But it turned out to be quite entertaining." The other girl smiled evilly. Which kind of ticked me off a bit. I mean, you would be too, if a bunch of second graders would come to you and start teasing you about being the girlfriend of the scariest guy in the WHOLE school (maybe even town, if you don't consider Reborn as one of the citizens).
I jumped from through the window, because I wasn't bothered to use the door, and crashed on my two feet like a lazy, fat cat. The group gave a round of applause for my little performance as a heroin. Little did they know that I can be quite scary when irritated, not as scary as I'll-bite-you-to-death-person, but scary enough, as far as a girl can go.
Though I didn't want to go all out because of some stupid teasing, so i just banged all of their heads, "Don't tease your senpais, that's not nice." I pouted my cheeks up a bit. "Uwaahh~, but Ami-senpai is so much cuter this way~." The blond hugged me. I took her head pushing her away from me, "Don't." Then I warned them, "It's probably quite okay if you are not too concerned about what you say around me, but as you know the other one, who you involved does not take these kind of things half-heartedly." It was true. I really hope that the carnivore does not hear any of it. The group froze, as if a wave of cold air came by them. "Y-yeah, you're probably right." The dude A said not very sure of what he was saying, like his tongue wasn't his at all.
"Well, as long as you don't spill it, and nobody here starts to speak of it, he won't figure it out. So it will be okay~." I gave them the thumps up and a wink. It looked as if they unfroze from the ice. I smiled at them for it.
When I started to walk to the door, I remembered that I still have the paper work to do. No wonder nobody else volunteered to be the prez and just put me in charge, because they knew that I have hard time to say no to helping people out. Stupid habit.
That's when I got an idea, a pretty evil idea. "Hey, you all, you owe me for being so mean just before." I turned around to stare with a small smirk plastered on me, the group froze again, waiting for whatever hell I am going to put them through. "Oh, don't worry, it's nothing too big. Just help me with my class president's papers and that's all~." I made it sound as such an easy job, that all four got relieved and gladly agreed to the job. I smiled at them and how naive they were , thinking that it was going to be an easy task~.
It was true, the pile that was piled up on the teachers desk was huge, and even after me doing at least half of it. "Well, let's get started~." I clapped, looking at their shocked faces. Maybe this was the first time that a class president got so much work, even for them. Looking disappointed they went to the desk to start the work. "Oh, cheer up. It's not that bad~, if we can finish this up quickly enough, I can buy some ice-cream later." All of them cheered up straight away.
"Let me help too, after all, my old man is waiting for you." Takeshi tapped my shoulder, "he really likes you, 'she is a very good help in the shop' he keeps on saying." That made me blush a little, "It's not like I do much." "Yes, you do." He walks to the group. Matteyo~, well, let's start with work.
It took about two hours before the six of us finished all of it. And of course, we were tired as hell itself. Don't ever underestimate 2 hours of only paper work, it can seriously kill you. I don't even want to think about the people that do this the whole day. It's pure suicide.
Though, I kept my promise and bought all of them ice-cream, after which, Takeshi and I left for Yamamoto's sushi shop. Got bless that place, it felt like heaven, sushi heaven.
The time when we finished with closing the shop and cleaning it up, it already struck 9 o'clock and my tummy rumbled. "Haha, why don't you stay to eat with us, Ami-san?" Yamamoto-san asked me after hearing my tummy make sounds for sometime. I grabbed it really hard, "umm, I-I don't want to be a bother." I answered awkwardly. "When ever were you a bother?" Takeshi tapped my shoulder. Why does he keep on doing that? "Well, fine. But then, at least let me cook." I made up my mind. Takeshi knowing that my cooking wasn't half bad, agreed with a huge smile.
I made something my mother taught me. A sort of an middle-east tradition food. My mum is a big fan of their foods, so she learned a lot of recipes, and then taught them to me, even if I didn't want to.
While I was at it, Yamamoto-san was giving me a lecture about how to cut the fish in the best way, which was quite educative. I never knew these things, although I thought that I knew a lot about how to make different sushi pieces and etc.
We ate the dinner talking also about fish and different ways to use the knife. Yamamoto-san definitely, for some reason, was like a pro at holding a knife, whenever he hold one, it felt like it was just a sharper extension of his arm. It almost felt like he was a swords master of some sort. And actually, when I asked him if he used to master a sword before, he answered that he did kendo when he was our age. That was surprising...no, not really. He looked like a person who was an ace at kendo. I wonder if he'll try to teach it to Takeshi also, like my mother taught me her special cooking. Or did he think of Takeshi's baseball as already good enough hobby? Probably yes, after all, the end of the conversation turned into a baseball topic. I mean, I like baseball and all, but there is some limit to how much you can talk about it. In the end I pretty much cut the conversation, saying, "Oh, look at the time. Well I better go~, school starts tomorrow quite early." Though because nobody noticed, I didn't feel too guilty for being rude. I just wasn't ready to listen to baseball the whole evening/night. So I apologetically bowed and went home.
When I passed Tsuna's house, I felt a pity that I almost didn't get to see my little brother today. Taking a small tear off my eye, I looked at the house. Though the only thing I saw was a dark house that had no light switched on. They probably all went to sleep by now. Sighing, I continued to walk to my little apartment. I wonder how Tsuna's first day was. Takeshi said that they got an energetically weird guy, named Lonchamp Naito, who became their class president. I wonder if he is nice. Maybe they could be good friends with Tsuna and the rest. I also wondered if he was foreign or something, after all, 'Longchamp' sounds quite english if you know what I mean.
"And that was the end of today. Hope to hear from you soon, give my regards to step-dad, Ami." I finished the sentence of my letter. I got to say, my letters are starting to become longer and longer as time flies. Of course, I don't tell her about everyone here being involved in the mafia. If I did, she would probably just make me go back to England and I started to really get used to this place, even Reborn, although I really want to kill him sometimes, same goes to the carnivore of course. I don't want to go back to England, even if would get to see my mom if I do.
Sighing (yet again), I looked at the time and decided that I needed to go to sleep. It was after one after all.
The next day was more normal. This time I was woken up by a shout of Ryohei's voice, which shocked me a bit. To be more precise, I haven't seen him the whole day yesterday, even in the morning, that's why I was wondering if something happened. And that's why I rushed out of the house and attacked him with questions about where he has being and such things. After getting a bit confused, he got that I was just worried, and answered, "I was just at the 3rd year ceremony to the EXTREME!" That got me of my heels and I fell a bit. It didn't take that long before I shot from the ground and gave him a hard hit on the head. "You did WHAT?" I shouted at him. Then suddenly his voice lowered to almost loud whispering, "I thought that we were 3rd graders and then that's why I went there. I even prepared a full speech and all." Then he rose his voice back to shouting, "But then I realized that we just went to the third year." I clapped sarcastically, with a twitching eyebrow, "And you never thought of asking, right?" I asked. He looked like a puppy that was just got lectured by it's master. "Haha, it's ok, as long as nothing serious happened. But seriously, next time ask, ok?" I patted his hard head. Although we were the same age, I felt like I had a responsibility to take care of this boxer sometimes.
The rest of the jogging was held in complete silence, which I felt was really awkward. After all, silence and Ryohei are not suppose to come together, no matter what, unless something was completely wrong. Which I hoped wasn't the case.
When we came to school, it was a normal day. The teacher was happy to see all of the paper work done. I found out that all of it was for the whole year. Why didn't anybody tell me about this? Jee~, the teachers can be such a pain.
Our school day was actually quite short. And this time, straight after the last lesson, I ran to find Tsuna, I haven't seen him in this morning too. It's already been over 24 hours since I've seen him, but I already miss his cute face.
When I finally found him, he was standing outside with a guy who was wearing his uniform with rock-like accessories with Ryohei, who was saying that they should join the boxing club. When I joined them, I asked Tsuna what was going on and the other kid told me that they were going to join a club. Huh? Boxing club? Seriously?...Although, knowing Tsuna, that probably wasn't the case. Though both the kid and Ryohei were pleasing him to join really hard.
It was like that until Ryohei fell to the ground, pale as a dead being. But then he got up, in his underwear, with a huge bump on his head. He looked really saddened and gloomy, He was mumbling something like, "My past was all dark, and even my future is going to be even darker." The boxer started crying really hard, "I realized that boxing is very unpopular. Even Kyoko just think that I'm just competing in underwear and oven gloves." ...I think I should check that fact out with Kyoko sometimes...he continued, "Plus Sawada, Ami and the forehead girl don't want to join." Well, yes, there is a reason why girls don't want to join..."I guess anyone with talent would go and participate in a more popular sport." I couldn't stand this anymore, that's why I hit his head to get over this trauma that came from nowhere. "Get your head together, I prefer the cheery Ryohei over this piece of punched out muscle." I told him in a scolding voice.
At the same time, the kid started crying as well, saying that Ryohei was really pitiful and why don't they just join. It seemed that Tsuna almost agreed, before he started shouting, "This is just the effect of the desolation bullet!" and run off. Desolation... bullet? "What's that?" I asked, feeling stupid. Though it sounded a lot like the Dying Will bullet, maybe it was similar. The adult-guy that stood next to me answered, "The desolation bullet will gain sympathy from others around him with sadness." He started nodding to himself. Ok, so basically, it was a 'please-pity-me' sort of bullet. Jee~, at least the Dying Will bullet has some sense to it (except the totally stripping you to your underwear too).
The kiddo that was with Tsuna ran in the same direction as my little brother did. I found out, or more like, intuition told me, that it was THE Lonchamp Naito. This made it quite interesting, so I followed them. I swear I'm not a stalker, just a little curios.
When I finally caught up to them (I wasn't bothered to run) I saw the next victim who was shot by the 'pity' bullet. And guess who it was. One and only pervy doctor we have in this school...Shamal. The chest hair, that he had, didn't make him anymore attractive...Anyway. The guy was crying with water his fullest and rumbling something like him hitting on the Queen and becoming an internal wanted person, that cheated on 2062 women.. (I wonder if that also included the ladies that he hit on as well. I am guessing that it's not possible.) And is that why you came here? To hit on Bianchi?
Though, unlike us (me and Tsuna) who knew him, Naito started to cry as well, saying that they should stay and work work with him. Umm...work? Seriously? And, luckily for me, Tsuna answered with a shocked face at his crying, "NO WAY!" And ran off again. I wonder if I'll get to talk to Tsuna if this continues, but I followed after them anyway.
This time I also wasn't bothered to run either, so I came late again. And I was happy to be so, because the next one they approached was exactly the person I was trying to avoid the whole day. Just looking at his face made my head brighten with red. Yesterday's conversation didn't help teasing didn't help either. "Uh, herbivore do you also want to join?" He took a notice of me standing there. "I-I..." It tried to get my head together, but it didn't work. When finally the the meaning of his words reached me, I asked, "Join what?" Just after that, the heat of my cheeks turned from burning to winter cold. He couldn't have meant the Discipline Committee, right? "Join the Discipline Committee." He said it with a smirk. "NO WAY!" I shouted out without thinking. Than there was a sound of a bullet and a metal tonfa hitting each other.
Tsuna and I panicked, even Naito was stunned, standing there. "If you wanted to fight, why not say so?" He told us. Ummm~, I think this the best time to make a run for it, but Naito was hit by the bullet, which made him say some girls name and cry for it. I thought of comforting him then, but Kyoya made his presence known with his killing intends.
Before we knew it, Tsuna was also shot. He just started acting the most emo I ever could even perform. Giving up on living. That was the ultimate, that had to even work on Kyoya. And for some seconds, I thought it would, but as I said, it was just seconds.
The next minute I saw Naito and my little brother beat up from the tonfas. Though one thing I found strange was that I didn't get even one hit, which made me blush a bit. "Kyoya." I said softly, not realizing it even myself. Maybe he was not that bad...except that he just beat my Tsuna really badly!
I treated the boys in the infirmary room, after kicking Shamal for his laziness. I mean, he had to have some NORMAL reason for not wanting to treat guys. In the end, I always ended up treating the guys in the school, when I could, which was kind of annoying, because there were many.
Though now, I finally got to have some free time with my little brother, which I was really happy for!
And that is the end of this quite long chapter. First ever chapter that went over 4000 words, ahahaha~! Well, that doesn't change anything. What did you think of this chapter? Please review~.
