Its was Tsuna and Kyoko's engagement party, Everybody is present. The Guardians, some of his friends, his parents. Haru isn't sad. She's happy for her two friends. She didn't mourn. Okay, just a little but she doesn't let anyone know. Sometimes, she'll just stares at the sky, remembering them together. Just like that. But every doesn't think its just like that. They say its the reason why she cut her hair short. She just said its because she wants a new look. That's true. She doesn't want to be single forever. They said its not bad. Yamamoto even said she became more pretty. Everybody does. Except that jerk.
"Ugly.. che." Gokudera said. He turn around.
She pouted. "Well, Haru doesn't cut her hair just because Haru wants to please Gokudera-san! Jerk!" She stuck her tongue to Gokudera. That man really hate her. Even if they're grown ups, they always fight.
"You're not cute to begin with, stupid!"
That night, everyone is in formal attire. The boys are in tuxedo. The girls are in short, colorful gowns. She wears knee-length black gown with big red ribbon at the back that serves as belt placed along her waist.
Everyone that day give a special presentation for the two. Yamamoto shows his amazing sword play. Lambo dance sway with I-pin who became very pretty, those two are together now. Ryohei shows his extreme boxing but Hana stops him before he destroy the whole celebration. Hibird sing a love song because Hibari doesn't really participate himself in such competition. Chrome uses her illusions to show them a very amazing firework displays. She give the two her newest and most unique design of clothes she ever made, she's a talented designer now. Bianchi cooks a delicious looking food but Tsuna-san doesn't eat it. Fuuta ranks their top 3 honeymoon spots that made the couple blush. Dino-san and Reborn-chan give a touching speech between the relationship of them and Tsuna-san.
Gokudera-san, being the right hand man is the last to perform. He stood beside a grand piano. He looks very nervous. It's been years before he hold a piano again. He then talk.
"Ahmmm.. This isn't really for boss, but Tenth really wants me to do it today so, here it is. This is for.." He look at her eyes. What he said after that is really shocking, everybody is shock except for Tsuna and Reborn. "This is for.. Haru."
Haru too is shock. She's speechless. Her eyes are widened.
Gokudera walk in front of the piano. He sit and place his long fingers on the keys. The melody is playful. He start to sing.
It's her hair and her eyes today that just simply take me away
Ans the feeling that I'm falling further in love
Makes me shiver but in a good way..
He close his eyes. He remember how his heart beats faster than usual when Haru is around. It beats faster and faster that he can't breathe. Specially that day when Haru show her new hairstyle.
"Ugly.. che." He said. He turns around so everybody won't see his red face.
"Well, Haru doesn't cut her hair just because Haru wants to please Gokudera-san! Jerk!"
"You're not cute to begin with, stupid!"
Yeah, she isn't cute. She's pretty. But that baseball idiot said it before he does [but he don't really intend to] and really irritate him.
"Haru, you're very pretty! Hehe!" Yamamoto said with his hand behind his head.
"Hahi! Thank you, Yamamoto-san." He turn around so he can see the reaction of Haru.
She blushing and smiling. He feel some bees in his stomach. He excuse himself and went inside his boss's house. What is this? he thought.
"That's what we call jealousy." A little voice from behind said to him.
"Tenth! Reborn-san!"
"Hehe, Gokudera-kun, I have a proposal to you." Tsuna said, smiling to his friend.
That's when Tsuna tell him to know more of his feeling and confess to Haru the day of his engagement. And that is today
He continue to hit the keys, his voice isn't really good but he somehow know that everyone has their eyes on him. He open his eyes and the first person he saw is his new life.
Haru can't believe what she's hearing. Gokudera, the man that everyone know hated her, is singing a love song for her!
Coz i love her with all that i am..
That single phrase makes Haru's heart melt. She felt it before, also on Gokudera. That time when he save her..
"Gokudera-san.." Haru was shock, she doesn't really expect him to save her.
"Stupid! Why don't you fight?! You're always fighting with me but you don't fight when they struggle you! Idiot!" He's angry, she can see that. But, she hear some caring, fear, and worry in his voice. Somehow, she felt her heart beats faster.
"Sorry.." She cries. He wraps his hands around her. He knows its traumatic that someone wants to kill her.
"Next time.. call my name. Tenth isn't always here to save you. I am his righthand man... You can call me. I'll surely come and save you."
She can hear his heart beats fast. She's crying and blushing at the same time. Blood rush up her face. She could feel the heat his body produces. Her heart melted the time she realize he always care.
"Thank you.." She hug back.
And my voice shakes along with my hands 'Cause she's all that I see and shes all that I need and I'm out of my league once again..
Gokudera always felt this way. He always give insults and bad words so that she won't have a clue that he likes her. Deep inside, he's having a heart attack when they're fighting. He always feel refreshed everytime he sees her run her fingers through her short, beautiful hair.
The playful music and and his deep voice is the only noise that can hear. Heartbeats pound softly, breath starts to shorten. Everyone is amazed. This is the first time they saw him playing a piano. They know he have a tragic past and they don't want to dig and hurt him. But now, all that they can see is a proud, a little nervous and manly Gokudera.
It's a masterful melody when she calls out my name to me As the world spins around her she laughs, rolls her eyes and I feel like I'm falling but its no suprise..
As the piano keeps playing, eyes all fixed on him, Gokudera only remember the time when that woman calls him aloud, the times she laughs because of the children, the times she's annoyed and she rolls her eyes just to annoy him too, and everytime he kept on falling and faing deeper yet, it feels like he's used to it.
While Haru, on the other hand, is having a heart attack. Everytime he hits the keys, everytime he opens his mouth to sing, everytime he opens his eyes to glance at her, her heart keep beating faster and faster. It's like she can't wait. It's like she's waiting for him to walk to her and tell her what he really feels. It's like this feeling is new to her, yet not.
'Cause I love her with all that I am And my voice shakes along with my hands 'Cause it's frightening to be swimming in this strange sea But I'd rather be here than on land Yes, she's all that I see and she's all that I need And I'm out of my league once again..
Tsuna is happy for Gokudera, that he was able to tell Haru of what he really feels. He knew from the start that what Haru feels for him isn't love. Just plain friendship and respect for a person who save her life, nothing more. He knows that the love-hate relationship of the two is interesting, and it became more interesting after he notices that his friend has feelings for the other. When he notice that Gokudera's voice isn't that straight when the two are fighting, also the time when he save Haru. He's not sure for what Haru feels for Gokudera, but he knows Haru is smart and make a decision that is acceptable.
'Cause I love her with all that I am And my voice shakes along with my hands 'Cause it's frightening to be swimming in this strange sea But I'd rather be here than on land Yes, she's all that I see and she's all that I need And I'm out of my league once again..
He hit some keys to finish the song. He feels so refreshed and new. He hear them clap for him, some, namely Yamamoto and Ryohei, saying "go for it!". He stood up and go to the place where she is.
Haru can't relax. Every step he take to get closer to her, the more she feels like taking deep breathes. She can't breath. She feel her face getting hotter.
"Oi." He stops in front of Haru, her head is bowed, he can't see her face.
"H-h-h-hai?" She asks, she can't look up to him with a face that looks like a tomato.
".... Stupid..."
"Hahi?! What did you say?!" Haru instantly look on him.
The time he saw her face, he instantly turn around. He can feel blood rushing up his face. "I say stupid woman!"
"What's with you? You sing a love song to me and now you call me stupid?! You.. you jerk!" She stand up, red chins up at him like she's questioning a tall person.
He can't take it. He can't breath. He know everyone is watching, even his precious boss. So he cup her face with his hands and press his lips on hers just to shut her up.
"Stupid! I love you and I'm here now shouting my feelings!"
"Hahi?" Haru isn't fully recover from the kiss. The time their lips met, everything around her stop.
"It's not 'hahi!', it's 'I love you too!'" He shouted. Everyone doesn't talk, they're just listen to them with eyes wide.
"What are you saying?! Haru isn't ready for this. You made Haru confused from the beginning! You sang a song for me, you call me stupid and now you're telling me to say 'i love you' to you?!"
Gokudera doesn't talk, he's guilty. But what he's nervous about is when she reject him.
"Haru can't take it! Haru didn't understand." she begun to cry. She covers her face with her trembling hands. "Haru only know Haru likes Tsuna-san. She feel happy with Tsuna-san, Tsuna-san is Haru's world, but... but.."
He felt like crying. All her words stabs through him. That the only person he look up is the only person that made his love life complicated. Tsuna-san, tsuna-san, it's irritating! It's hurting him.
"But.. you're always there! You always fight with Haru! You always made Haru annoyed! You always make Haru cry! Yet.. y-you always make Haru's heart pound faster! You always make Haru blush! You always make Haru's heart melt! You always make Haru fall in love with you and not to Tsuna-san! Everytime we talk.. w-we fight, we shout at each other, Haru immediately forget about Tsuna-san! I-i... i hate it! I hate that Haru loves you!"
Gokudera can't believe what he hear. Haru just tell him that she loves him! He wraps his hand around her. She wraps her arms around him. Both saying..
"Thank you. I'm out of my league once again.."
