Third Person POV~

"Eh!? Today's your birthday, Tsuna!?" Yamamoto exclaimed, looking up from his textbook.

"H-Huh? Yeah, how did you know?" Tsuna asked Yamamoto.

"Akemi told me," he replied, pointing at Akemi, who had been eating her Pocky.

"What!? Juudiame, why didn't you tell me? As your righthand-man, I should be informed of this!" Gokudera exclaimed.

"I-It wasn't important and the topic didn't came up," Tsuna explained.

"Then let's throw a big party later! To celebrate!" Yamamoto said in glee.

"I agree with the baseball freak!" Gokudera agreed.

"A-Arigatou, minna."

"Then, I better buy my present later!" Yamamoto said.

"Che. I will buy an even better present than yours for Juudiame!"

"C-Calm down, Gokudera. It's not even a competition," Tsuna said, sweat-dropping.

"And Akemi, how did you know? I'm pretty sure I never told you when is my birthday," Tsuna questioned curiously.

"..."

"Akemi?" Tsuna asked as he looked at Akemi.

Akemi was looking out of the window and she had this... longing look on her face.

"Akemi, are you alright?" Yamamoto asked,"Akemi!"

"H-Huh?" Yamamoto's voice entered Akemi's reverie, snapping her out of it.

"Are you okay, Akemi?" Tsuna asked again. She blinked.

"I'm fine, Tsuna..." she replied and looked to the window again.

Now something was seriously wrong.

They all knew that Akemi usually address Tsuna as 'Tsuna-nii' but she didn't.

And it was worrying them to no end.

"O-Oi, are you really alright?" Gokudera asked.

"Ara, is Goku-chan worried about me?" Akemi said teasingly and smiled.

A fake smile was plastered on her face. A smile so fake that even a pre-schooler could tell.

"Akemi..." Yamamoto said.

"Joking! I was joking with you all!" she said cheerfully- to which they flinched as it was so fake- and stood up.

"Ah! Where are you going, Akemi?" Tsuna asked.

"Just taking a walk..." she answered,"I... probably won't be back so fast." Then she walked off.

"..."

Silence enveloped the whole room.

"Something is wrong with Akemi. She isn't acting like herself," Yamamoto broke the silence.

"We all know that you baseball freak!" Gokudera shouted.

"But, what's bothering her?" Tsuna questioned, thinking hard,"She didn't even eat much of her Pocky and that's saying something since she could finish them at breakneck speed!"

"Maybe... she lost something?" Yamamoto suggested.

"Why did you even think that?" Gokudera asked.

"She had this look on her face," Yamamoto stated,"A look that she had just lost something precious."

Silence once again enveloped the room.

"Mah, mah! What's with the gloomy atmosphere?" Yamamoto said, trying to cheer them up,"Maybe when she comes back, she will be fine already?"

"That's freaking optimistic," Gokudera commented.

Just then, a breeze blew past them and a paper Akemi had been doddling on dropped onto the floor.

"Ah! That's Akemi's!" Tsuna said and went to pick the paper up.

"Eh? This is..." Tsuna looked at the paper. After a while, he exclaimed loudly.

"E-Eh!?"

"What's wrong, Juudiame?"

"L-Look at this!" Tsuna said and showed them the paper.

"T-This is..." Let's just say they all shared the same surprise looks.

A breeze came into the room again and the paper fluttered, making the words written on it clear to anyone.

I guess I won't be celebrating my birthday today...

"... Even if I wrote that on a paper, I still feel kinda sad," Akemi said to herself.

'Eisuke-nii...'

Her head downcast, she continued walking aimlessly until she reached Namimori Middle School.

"Why did I even end up here... Oh what the hell!" She walked into the school and decided to do a suicidal attempt- going to the rooftop.

"Sorry for intruding," she said as she opened the door to the rooftop.

"Mini-Omnivore."

"Carnivore- I mean Hibari-san!" she corrected herself.

"What are you doing here? There isn't school today," Hibari demanded.

"I know. I just... wanted to."

"Trespassing the school after school hours is breaking the rules. I will bite you death-"

"Please, Hibari-san," Akemi interrupted,"Please... just let me be here for a while."

"... Hn," he grunted.

"Arigatou, Hibari-san." Akemi sat on the floor beside Hibari- not too close- and looked up at the sky. It was silent for a moment till Hibari spoke.

"Stop crying."

"W-What!?" It's true, Akemi had started crying. At first it was just one drop, but then the dam broke and more tears cascaded down her face, where Akemi's clenched fist was pressing at, blocking out all the light.

"I-I'm not crying!" she protested in vain.

"Don't lie... Just let it all out," Hibari said.

Akemi's clenched fist dropped, she stared at Hibari with wide eyes.

D-Did she perhaps heard Hibari- theHibari- trying to comfort her!?

She smiled genuinely through her tears and sniffled. She let out all her tears bottled inside her. She was surprised, she thought that her tears had already dried up long time ago but apparently not.

After a while of crying and awkward silence, Akemi spoke.

"Gomenasai, Hibari-san, for disturbing you."

"Hn. You owe me for this, Mini-Herbivore."

"Alright, fair enough- Wait! When did I lose my Omnivore status!?" she exclaimed.

"You lost it the moment you showed me that herbivorous expression."

"No fair!" She puffed out her cheeks in anger, though it ended up looking like a cat puffing up its fur.

"Hn. Then earn it back." She smiled again.

"Arigatou, Hibari-san," she thanked him,"You always know what to say, you know?"

"I guess I better leave now. Tsuna-nii and the others are probably worried about me."

"Hn." Akemi got up and was about to leave but stopped to say something.

"Arigatou for trying to comfort me!" She closed the door immediately and just in time too as a loud 'BANG!' and a tonfa-shaped dent appeared on the door.

'I take back about him being a Tsundere. Honto ni, I don't whether to call him a Dandere or Kuudere.'

Unfortunately, Akemi already left before she could hear what Hibari said.

"Hn. You bottle up your feelings too much sometimes."

"I should hurry up and go back! They must be worried, I think," Akemi said and proceeded to walk to the direction of the Sawada Household.

"Akemi!" someone called out for her. Akemi turned around and saw...

"Tsuna-nii! Gokudera! Yamamoto!" she said in surprise,"How did you know I was here?"

"Well, you told me before that you would sometimes come here to disturb Hibari-san," Tsuna explained. She nodded in understanding.

"Akemi! Why didn't you tell us today was your birthday?" Yamamoto asked. Akemi's eyes widened.

"How did you-"

"You wrote it on your paper, Baka!" Gokudera answered her question.

"So why didn't you tell us?" Yamamoto pressed on.

"... My birthday... is full of sad memories..." Akemi mumbled,"So... it's better left forgotten..."

"Akemi," Tsuna-nii muttered. He then looked at her with determined eyes.

"T-Then let's make this birthday a happy one!" he declared.

"Eh?" Akemi looked at him.

"Aha! I agree with Tsuna!"

"I also agree with Juudiame!"

"Minna..." she said,"But why? I cause you guys nothing but trouble..."

"That's true. You gave a lot of trouble to Juudime," Gokudera said bluntly and Akemi can't help but flinched,"But this is what friends are for, right?"

Awkward silence.

"For once I said something nice and all you and the baseball freak do is give me the look which says 'Who are you and what have you done with Gokudera!?'"

'Actually I gave you that look too, Gokudera-kun,' Tsuna thought.

"Ah, gomen!" Yamamoto apologized,"But who would have thought you would say something like that!"

"That's why, Akemi," Gokudera said,"Just celebrate your birthday along with Juudiame."

"Gokudera..."

"A-Akemi! Why are you crying!?" Tsuna exclaimed in a panic.

"Eh?" She touched her face, and as expected it was wet.

'I cried just now and now I'm crying again!? Screw me...'

"You know, for a kid who acts so mature, you are really a crybaby you know?" Gokudera stated.

"Shut up, bastard!" Akemi said and punched him lightly.

"Hahaha! Mah, mah! At least Akemi is feeling better now!" Yamamoto said, patting Gokudera on the shoulder.

"Come on, Akemi!" Tsuna extended his hand to Akemi,"Let's go home and celebrate our birthday!"

Akemi smiled warmly and accepted his hand. She then said something in which made all of them smiled brightly.

So this is how being at bliss feels like.

Omake: Just a little continuation~

"Herbivores."

"Shit," Akemi said, turning around to find Hibari standing near them.

"You herbivores are crowding. I will bite you death." Hibari then pulled out his tonfas.

"You bastard! Bring it on!" Gokudera challenged him but before he could take out any dynamites, Akemi grabbed him and the rest and dragged them away.

"Run, bitches! Run!" she shouted, as Hibari chased after them.

"Hahaha! Are we playing a game?" Yamamoto said, oblivious that they had just incurred the wrath of a demon *cough*Hibari*cough*.

"Hieeeee! Yamamoto!"

"Shut up, baseball freak!"

"Just keep on running if you guys want to survive!" Akemi yelled, beaming even though they were in danger.

And the rest- excluding Hibari- can't help but smile along with her.
