Nana has Tsunami at the kitchen table. Tsunami wasn't happy about her situation. At all. Nana sets a cup of tea and a large plate of cookies in front of her daughter. She comforts her daughter with a pat on the head and takes a seat beside her with her own cup of tea.
"Don't sulk, Tsu-chan."
"Hmph!" Tsunami snorts.
"It's not so bad…"
"Mama! I'm…I'm…so hot all the time! And…I want to…UGH!" Tsunami crosses her arms and buries her face into them.
"It's only natural," Nana giggles.
It is explained to Tsunami that she was in a heat peak. Although female bats are in season all year around, a heat peak was when at a certain season of the year a female is at their most aroused. The urgency to mate is very strong during their peak. A heat peak lasts for three months for a season.
"For you, Tsunami, it looks like you're peak is during the spring."
"….it's February…going into March!"
"Then you're a Winter-Spring! Your Mama is a Summer-Autumn."
"Ugggh!"
A female would only fine relief by finding a mate and getting pregnant. In the Tejinaka, that usually is an easy fix. There are hundreds of bats to choose from and it is expected. However, being that females have more options in what they do with their lives other than having pups, Buiiro created a rule that a female doesn't have to mate until they are sixteen. Still, some females are willing to mate at a young age do to them unable to resist the urge. Other ways to curb the need to mate are…self-pleasuring along with the Tejinaka Heat Peak Tea. The Heat Peak Tea was created by a female a long time ago desperate to not to mate. She was a great-great-aunt of Tsunami and Nana. The tea had herbs, spices that all serve to calm their mood and reduce the state of arousal.
"The heat peak doesn't just drive females crazy…it makes males…batty!"
"Awwwww, Mama!" Tsunami groans. "I'm not going to the Spring Gathering! Not like this! No way!"
Nana nods her head in understanding.
A female's scent and pheromones nearly double the normal amount because of the changing sexual hormones inside the body. The pheromones are nature's natural perfume. The pheromones are what allows the male to find a female who is physically ready to have pups. A male would travel for miles to track an alluring female down!
"It even affects humans too."
"What?! How?"
"Even though humans don't use their noses as much as animals do, their bodies react to the chemicals and hormones of the pheromones and act accordingly."
"Sounds great, Mama." Tsunami mumbles.
"Teeheee, Iemitsu was insatiable when I hit my peak!" Nana blushes. "It was funny how he thought it was some new perfume that I was wearing!"
"….Mama…if your peak was at the highest between summer and winter…how was I born in autumn?"
"Just because you're at your peak doesn't absolutely mean you're going to get pregnant. It's the role of the dice in or out of peak. But, to answer your question…I really wanted you to be autumn baby…we females can actually carry a male's seed for awhile."
"W-we can? How?"
Nana smiles and winks, "I'll tell you when you're ready to have a pup."
As the days grew warmer Tsunami became hotter and bothered. She was desperate to find keep her body cool. It didn't help that she was photosensitive and had to cover herself from head to toe! She looks for solutions from her mother and Bianchi. Bianchi was confused on why Tsunami was so eager to dress cool while at the same time protect her skin. But it at least gave Bianchi the opportunity to give Tsunami to what she believed needed a makeover. Tsunami's wardrobe of long skirts was replaced with the short school skirt the majority of the female Namimori population wore. To protect her legs she wore special tights Bianchi had found on the internet. Tsunami felt a lot better about that. The tea helped out a bit to keep her calm but it worked better with a bit of personal time. For as long as Tsunami was in her peak she and her mother had to convince the children that Tsunami needed some time to herself. That included Reborn. Reborn didn't argue, knowing the circumstances since he had secretly overheard the conversation. Tsunami didn't want the kids or Reborn to leave her, especially since Bianchi seemed overjoyed to share her room with Reborn. Tsunami had to grit her teeth and allow it for her sanity's sake!
But it wasn't completely miserable. Tsunami discovered that just being around Hayato and Takeshi gave some reprieve. Somehow, being around them calmed her down. Hayato and Takeshi were aware of Tsunami's condition. Tsunami hadn't mentioned anything to them so they assumed that she was fine. They did notice a change. When Tsunami was around them she was rather giddy and very affectionate. Their friendly snuggly was a now at a new level. Tsunami's usual affection was hugging, neck and cheek nuzzling and squeezing herself between them enjoying their closeness. Lately, neck and cheek nuzzling came with kisses. Hayato was very surprised by the kiss to his neck and screamed the first time it happened. Takeshi laughed for a long time as a confused Tsunami stared at Hayato as he stuttered shyly. He eventually got used to the kissing. Takeshi liked the kissing. They were so soft and it made him very happy. He became curious and kissed her cheek back. This thrilled Tsunami and she clunged to Takeshi. Hayato was envious of Takeshi attention but didn't dare take a chance of being so presumptuous! Tsunami was very delighted being so near to her Hayato and Takeshi. They were so willing and obliging to allow her to invade their space and allowing her to hold them close. In the back of her mind, she still felt guilty about allowing Ryohei to kiss her. It seemed to have bothered them somehow. Perhaps she was making it up to them this way.
The boys in Tsunami's class were starting to notice Tsunami. They didn't see much of change but there was something about her presence that was gaining their attention.
"Say, does Dame-Tsunami look different to you?"
"Other than she's wearing normal skirts you mean? Well, sort of…but…"
"It's sort of hard to tell, but it's something…"
Tsunami felt the stares and would catch their gazes. She would smile at them and giggle which piqued the boys' interests further. Tsunami couldn't believe the attention she was receiving from the boys. Before, none of them have ever given her a thought. She didn't have any sex appeal that they were looking for because she was all covered up (except for that time during Sports Day when she wore the nurse costume). She knew that they were lured towards her by her pheromones. She could smell their excitement. She knew the scent of raging teenage boy hormones and in turn it made her excited. The girls were bothered by the gradual attention growing around Tsunami. They didn't notice anything different about her but the shortening of her lame skirt with the addition of tights that did give her legs a shapely appearance. Hayato and Takeshi were not comfortable with the attention Tsunami was attracting by their male classmates. Boys were starting to talk to Tsunami, taking her attention away from them. It bothered them that all of the sudden they were interested in Tsunami when they were her friends.
"Jealous?" asks Reborn.
"Tch, jealous of what?!" Hayato smokes his second cigarette under the window of the boys' restroom.
"Of the attention Tsunami is receiving. She seems to enjoy it."
"You think so, kid?" Takeshi asks as he washes his hands.
"She's…Boss isn't herself…she's in heat and is under the influence of animal instincts. She's…just doing what comes naturally."
"But, it certainly is strong." Reborn nods his head. "That kind of ability could be useful in the future. What's more interesting is that it's undetectable. You can't smell it, but Tsunami is excreting her pheromones and it's affecting male humans in her favor. She could win a lot of hearts that way and she may receive gifts…"
"Ah!" Takeshi pounds a fist into his hand, "White Day!"
"What? White Day?" Hayato frowns.
"Oh, yeah! Haha, you wouldn't know about it since you transferred from Italy. Anyway, White Day is coming up soon. It's like Valentine's Day, but instead of girls giving chocolates or presents to the boys it's the boys turn to give gifts to the girls. Besides, Tsuna-chan gave us gifts. We have to show her our thanks."
"Baseball idiot! Why didn't you mention this sooner!
Hayato couldn't believe it! White Day, an opportunity to repay his Boss' kindness on Valentine's Day! He was going to give her an incredibly, amazing gift that is worthy of his Boss' magnificence! Takeshi was grinning to himself. What could he give to Tsunami that would make her happy? Reborn watches as the boys begin to plan how to win Tsunami's happiness.
White Day was next week. Takeshi was still struggling to think of a perfect gift for Tsunami. He had thought about cooking something for her but…right now all he could make is sushi and she could have that anytime. He wanted her gift to be something special for a special girl like Tsunami. He sighs in defeat and presses his head to kitchen countertop.
"Hahaha, what's up, son?" Tsuyoshi
"Um…well, White Day is coming and…."
Takeshi jumps when his father's knife stabs into the fish and cutting board.
"What about White Day?"
"D-Dad? What's with the serious, scary face? Um, well…White Day is coming and I'm trying to think of a great gift to give to Tsunami-chan."
"Tsunami-chan? I thought she was a friend?"
"S-she is a friend!" Takeshi protests. "She gave me and some other guys cookies for Valentine's Day. So, I got to give her something back."
Tsuyoshi smiles as he ruffles his son's hair.
"Why not go out to the shopping district and looks around for some ideas. Just think about what makes Tsunami-chan so special is try to match it."
"Something that matches Tsunami's specialness?" Takeshi wonders aloud.
Even though Takeshi keeps insisting that he and Tsunami are just friends. Tsuyoshi could tell that his feelings for the Sawada girl were something more than friendship. Takeshi probably doesn't realize it yet, but it will become clear to him in time.
It was White Day, though Tsunami was unaware of this. Hayato and Takeshi seemed anxious about something, when Tsunami asked them what was wrong they said nothing was wrong. Tsunami didn't push the issue as they made their way to school. In class, Tsunami was just settling down in her seat. There was still a good few minutes before the bell. Mochida, Kensuke stepped into the classroom. A few girls admire the handsome upperclassman. They assumed he was visiting to give their class idol, Kyoko, a White Day gift. To everyone's surprise, he doesn't go to Kyoko but to Tsunami! Tsunami was twice as surprised as her classmates. Last time she encountered Mochida was when she first met Reborn and he had shot her with a Dying Will bullet and transformed in front of him. Fortunately, Reborn used a special bullet that altered Mochida's memories of that event. Mochida steps to Tsunami's desk. In his hand was paper shopping bag from a gift store.
"Yo, Tsunami-chan!" He mumbles.
"H-hello…" she flutters her lashes, still amazed that he was talking to her.
Mochida swallows and blushes softly. He holds the bag out to her. The class gasps. Tsunami covers her mouth with a hand.
"Sempai?"
"Happy White Day, Tsunami-chan!"
"What?!" The class yells.
"Really? For me?"
Tsunami stood up from the desk. That was when Mochida notices that she was wear a short skirt instead of a long one. He stares at the dark woolen tights that wrapped around her entire legs lovingly. As he stares, Tsunami opens the bag and makes a happy sound.
"Oh! It's so cute!"
Tsunami pulls out a stuffed-animal of a bat! It was a species bat with white fuzzy fur. Tsunami ignores the fact that it was a bat from Mochida. Perhaps in Mochida's subconscious he associated bats with Tsunami. Tsunami hugs the stuffed animal to her chest.
"Thank you so much, sempai!"
'Whoa!' Mochida couldn't look away.
Tsunami was looking up at him, her big brown eyes were bright and wide, her cheeks were rosy and her lips, her lips were so pink and so inviting. They were just begging to be kissed! Mochida grabs her hand and pulls her out of her seat. Tsunami's nose twitches and her heart races. Mochida's scent spiked and he was staring at her lips. He was going to kiss her! There was a growl behind her and she is pulled out of Mochida's grip and she finds herself staring at Hayato's back! Takeshi touches her shoulder.
"You okay, Tsu-chan?" Takeshi speaks into her ear.
Tsunami nods her head, "Y-yeah, I'm fine!"
"What's your problem, Gokudera!?"
"My problem is you bothering, Boss!"
Mochida smirks, "Please, Sawada loves my gift! I wasn't bothering her at all!"
"Hey, now, now…the bell is about the ring. We should get to our seats."
Mochida and Gokudera growl at each other before Mochida smirks, shrugging his shoulders and saunters out the room. He throws a wink over his shoulder at Tsunami, making her blush and the girls swoon. Gokudera was annoyed through the class session, making the teacher nervous.
There was a break between class and Tsunami took the opportunity to take her stuffed-animal to locker for safe-keeping. She snuggles the doll through the halls. Shamal had stepped out of the nurse's office and he was passing Tsunami.
"Good morning, Shamal-sensei!"
"Morning, cutie…"
Shamal stops and he looks to Tsunami. He looks her up and down.
"You look nice in a real skirt, Tsunami!"
Tsunami looks back at the doctor and smiles nervously, "Thank you?"
Shamal approaches her and leans over. He slips his fingers beneath her chin. Tsunami looked nice all over actually. Her eyes, her lips, her skin and her hair were full of life.
"Sh-shamal-sensei? I have to go."
"Awww, there's no need for you to hurry. You're on break right? Why don't you step into my office and we can talk a bit more."
"Um…."
"Fraternization between a teacher and a student is against the rules of Namimori."
Shamal grunts and his eyes roll into the back of his head. Tsunami screams as Shamal collapses to the floor. In his place, Kyoya stood with a tonfa in hand.
"Morning, Hibari-sempai."
"Hmph."
He notices the doll and frowns.
"Bringing toys to school is a distraction."
"Um, it's my White Day gift! From Mochida-sempai."
Kyoya narrows his eyes at that. Mochida had given a gift to his pet to find favor with her. Kyoya steps in closer to Tsunami and once again, Tsunami is backed against the wall. He traps Tsunami with his arms.
"Do you approve of Mochida, Kensuke?"
"Huh?"
"Do you approve of him of being your mate, pet?"
Tsunami shakes her head, "N-no! I don't."
Kyoya smirks and points a finger into Tsunami's face.
"Good. Because you are my pet. You belong to no else but me."
"No, I don't!" Tsunami pouts.
Kyoya never cared for White Day. It was a stupid holiday that gave herbivores an excuse to crowd more than usual. It was distracting and annoying to Kyoya. However, Tsunami did showed her approval of him with her gift from Valentine's Day.
"Herbivore, accept this as your gift."
"You got a gift for…"
Kyoya catches Tsunami's lips with his teeth. Tsunami gasps allowing Kyoya to infiltrate his tongue into her mouth. He drags her tongue into his mouth and nips at her tongue. Tsunami shivers. Just like his personality, Kyoya was rough and dominating. Kyoya reminded her of her grandfather. His presence commanded respect. Her animal instincts told her to submit, but Tsunami didn't want to submit to Kyoya. He always took and never gave. With that thought, Tsunami growls and fights to pull her tongue back. Kyoya growls back in reply and tries to catch it again but she snaps at him and bites his lips. He grabs her hair and pulls, snapping her head back. Tsunami hisses in pain but she shows her small victory by licking the blood off the corner of her lip. Kyoya licks his bleeding lip and grins. His eyes sharpen with challenge and he prepares to take her lips again. The bell rings a warning of the ending break period. Kyoya sighs and pulls away.
"Pet, take your toy and put it away. Then return to class immediately."
"Y-yes, sempai…"
Tsunami reached her locker and couldn't believe what she found there. Her locker was filled with cards, boxes of chocolates and tiny plush animals. Her mouth hung open and she nearly dropped her gift from Mochida.
"What on earth?!"
Tsunami shows her locker to Hayato and Takeshi afterschool. Hayato never felt the need to blow something up so badly! He would have stuff the locker to the brim with dynamite, if it wasn't his Boss' locker.
"Wow, you're really popular today, Tsu-chan!"
"I see it, but I don't believe it!"
"Why not, you're really cute!" Takeshi wraps and arm around her shoulder.
Tsunami closes her eyes and leans against him. His scent washes over her and Tsunami's face reddens and she licks her lips. The gesture draws both Hayato and Takeshi's eyes to her lips. They wonder what it would be like to kiss her lips, to taste her mouth. It was so unfair that Ryohei was given the opportunity twice so far.
"Gokudera-kun, Yamamoto-kun…could you come over to my house?"
"Sure!" Takeshi chirps.
"Of course I'll escort you home, Boss!"
Leaving the school grounds and just about the cross the street, they hear pounding footsteps rapidly approaching them from behind.
"TSUNAMI-CHAAAAN!" Ryohei was sprinting towards them.
Ryohei screeches to stop on his sneakers and stops just inches away from Tsunami. His face hovers over hers and pants heavily.
"I need to give you my White Day present to you!"
He digs into his pocket and pulls out a charm. It was a small folded red pouch. It had her name stitched on it with a felt pink heart. The pouch was tied by a white, thin satin ribbon.
"A charm?"
"A love charm! I have one too!"
Tsunami blushes, "Thank you, Ryohei-kun."
Hayato clicks his tongue and Takeshi's smile strains. Ryohei stares at Tsunami's face and his blood comes to an immediate boil.
"I'm extremely sorry! I have to kiss you right now!"
Hayato felt like pulling out his hair! This is the third time; the third time Ryohei plants his lips on Tsunami's! Takeshi watches in longing and moans quietly. Tsunami hears the sound and felt Hayato's frustration in his soul. She presses her lips back against Ryohei's lips gently and pulls away. Ryohei becomes flushed and he trembles with passion. He pumps his fist in the air and charges off down the street yelling "extreme".
"Are sempai's kisses that amazing?" Takeshi asks.
Tsunami doesn't reply, only bowing her head and walking forward. The boys follow her in silence. It looked like Tsunami was down despite having such a good day or so they thought. They follow her inside her home and Tsunami receives a big surprise with Lambo, I-Pin and Fuuta shouting "Happy White Day" and holding pictures with candy glued to the paper. Tsunami smiles returns and she admires each of her gifts. In thanks she kisses each child's cheek. They all flush with happily and giggle. They run outside to celebrate with play at the park for making Tsunami happy. Tsunami has Hayato and Takeshi go to her room while she sticks her gifts onto the fridge. Tsunami finds them patiently waiting for her. Or rather, Hayato seemed nervous about something.
She sits on her bed and places her hands on her lap, "Um….I…"
"Boss!"
"Y-yes!?"
Hayato pulls his bag into his lap and pull out a folder. Opening the folder he pulls out a sheet of paper. He holds the sheet out reverently as if he was presenting to a queen. Tsunami takes the sheet of paper. It was sheet music for musicians to write and read music on. There were notes drawn expertly across half the sheet. On the top center of the page there was the title written down reading, "White Day Melody".
"Gokudera-kun?"
"It's a song that I'm writing for you, Hime!" Hayato stutters.
He bows at her feet with his head to the floor on hands and knees, "Please forgive with what little I could write for you. If only I have been aware of this holiday I would have had a full song for you and perhaps had played it for you!"
"Eh?! But, Gokudera-kun, you have bad memories of playing on the piano because of Bianchi! You would play for me? Really?"
"Yes," Hayato looks up from the floor, "Yes I would! Anything for you, Hime-Boss! H-happy White day!"
"Oh, oh Gokudera-kun!"
It really warmed her heart how honest and sincere Hayato was to her. He worked so hard to please her, whether it was because she was his Boss or his friend, it meant so much Tsunami. Tsunami slips off her bed and kneels in front of Hayato. She cups his cheeks and pulls him forward.
"Hime?"
She hears his heart racing and his lip quivers. She rubs one side of his face in comfort before closing her eyes and leans close. Her lips were just a breath of way before Hayato turns his head.
"Don't, Hime!"
Tsunami was startled at this and flinches away from him, "W-why?"
"It's not you, it's me! Hime, you're such wonderful person! You're so very kind, but this kindness you wish to bestow on this lowly person as myself…is undeserving!"
Tsunami stares at Hayato and glances at Takeshi. Takeshi blinks in confusion, looks at Tsunami, smile and shrugs with his hands out. Tsunami sighs.
"Gokudera-kun, of course you deserve a proper thank you. In fact, if Ryohei-kun can get kiss from me, why can you? You and Takeshi and more than deserving of a kiss from me and I'm sorry for that. I realize how just unfair it was. Ryohei-kun knows nothing about me and he claims that he loves me. You and Yamamoto-kun know everything about me and have kept my secret and continued to be my friends. That means so much to me!"
Tsunami lifts Hayato's face up by his chin and presses her lips against his. Hayato made a surprise squeak and Tsunami couldn't help but laugh as she pulls away from him. Hayato's face had become a dark red and he hides his face behind his drawn up knees and wraps his arms around them. Tsunami could see the steam going out of his ears. Tsunami purrs and rubs against his arms. She hears movement from Takeshi as he digs into his own bag. He pulls out a small paper back and reaches into it. She hears a light tinkling sound. It was so soft but it was a beautiful sound that caught her attention. Takeshi held a bell made out of crystal. It was held between his fingers by a small chain loop. Tsunami stares at the glimmering bell as Takeshi moves in close to her. Tsunami still wore her collar Kyoya had given her on her birthday. Takeshi wraps his hands around her neck and unlatches the collar and slips the crystal bell over the collar before placing it back on her neck. He gives the bell a flick and it tinkles.
"Happy White Day, Tsu-chan! It was hard finding a nice gift for you. So I just had look around at one of the old-timey stores and founds his cool shop that sells crystal. I thought the little bell would be nice for you. It's not too loud so you could still sneak up on people, haha!"
Tsunami touches bell, "I like it! Thank you, Yamamoto-kun!"
"Does this mean I can get a kiss too?"
Tsunami nods her head. She squeals when Takeshi pulls her onto his lap. Takeshi hugs her tightly showing how happy he was! Tsunami hugs his face to her chest and rubs his face into it. The two looked into each other eyes and kiss. Takeshi couldn't stop smiling, even through the kiss, making Tsunami smile against his lips too. After their kiss, Takeshi refused to let Tsunami go and they snuggle together. Hayato felt left out and he growls at the baseball player to stop smothering her. Tsunami and Takeshi just laugh and pull Hayato into the pile. They lay over each other in happy silence, until a thought comes to Takeshi.
"Neh, Tsu-chan?"
"Mm?"
"Since you call sempai by his given name, why not call us by our given name?"
"Really, is that okay?"
"If that's what the Boss wants. You can call me anything you like, Hime!"
"Okay, Takeshi-kun, Hayato-kun."
Hayato and Takeshi sigh in content. There was another minute of silence and Takeshi speaks again.
"Neh, Tsu-chan?"
"Mm?"
"You've been giving out a lot of kisses! Is this a bat thing?"
"What do you mean?" Tsunami opens her eyes.
"Well, what does kissing mean to a bat. As humans, we kiss for different things. Kissing on the lips means that you really, really like a person sometimes. So, what does kissing on the lips mean to you?"
"Hmm, well, kissing on the lips means that I like you and care about you very much. I like kissing, it makes me feel good. In my colony females kiss and show other males that they find them suitable as a mate. Not all mates mate for life. Some do, but there are others that would be interested in another male in another season. Depending on the bat, they could have more than one mate of interest. Like my grandfather, he has three mates that he goes to."
Takeshi smiles and raises himself on his arm to look over Tsunami.
"Sooo, Tsunami-chan thinks we're suitable?"
Tsunami blinks once, twice and on the third time she squeaks and turns away from Takeshi. She is met by Hayato's own blushing face.
"Really, Hime? I'm suitable to be a mate for you?"
"I…I don't see why not? Um, it's…it's probably because I'm in heat that I seeing your potential now!"
"Hahaha, to be honest, I keep telling myself that we're just friends. But, I would like to learn to like you a little more. Especially since kissing is so much fun, no wonder sempai likes kissing you!"
Hayato was quiet, in disbelief that Tsunami would consider him as a mate! They fall into a comfortable silence once more. Hayato and Takeshi continue to entertain the idea of having a relationship with Tsunami . They didn't speak it out loud but they realize how they were not upset they were with Tsunami kissing the both of them in each other's presence. Perhaps it was because Tsunami had been cuddling them and giving them friendly kisses that they have accepted as a non-human behavior that was acceptable with her family. Why should they complain about it now? Besides, Tsunami hadn't decided whether she wanted to be romantically involved, she was just showing romantic interest.
Reborn watches with amusement as Hayato and Takeshi dealt with a heated feral-Tsunami. He sat on the bed with a bowl-shaped Leon filled with popcorn. He was in his most comfortable pajamas complete with nightcap.
"Boss! Hime! P-please, oh my god!"
"Easy, Tsu-chan! Easy, easy…yeow!"
"Hime! Baseball idiot help me…she's not thinking straight….AAAAAAH!"
There was the sound of clothes tearing and Reborn's little eyebrows rose.
"HIME! NO! NONONONO nonono no…no…nooooo~!"
Tsunami's purring fills the room along with Hayato's whimpering.
"….um…do you want me to…uh…stop her now?"
"No…I mean yes! Yes, stop her!"
"You're sure…"
"Yes, you dummy!"
Feral-Tsunami's carnal desires were very strong.
