Location: Casa Hotel

Room #270

Time: Nighttime of 8:35

Tsuna stretched his arms above his head while standing in front of the window of the amazing view in the night time. Then he heard the ringtone from his phone, he turned his head and saw his phone ringing on the bed. He went to the bed, picked up his phone, and saw Skull calling him. The petite model accepted the call and pressed on his ear, "Hello?"

"Hey, Sora! How are you?"

Tsuna smiles, "I'm good, tired but good. You?"

"I'm good now that I'm talking to you." Tsuna blushes, "Senpai are being jerks and I don't wanna to deal with them. I thought about talking to you and hearing your voice would make me happy. And it did!"

The petite model blinked while his cheeks are cherry red, "A-ah… umm… I'm glad?" he doesn't know what to say about that, but he is curious about Skull's senpai, "You said that your senpai is being a jerk?" he asked with curiosity.

Skull grumbled to himself, "They are jerks who kept hitting and kicking me. Kept using me to run an errand for them."

Tsuna frowned deeply, he actually understood that type of feeling. He was used to that kind of treatment, from his classmates in school. "That's awful. They have no respect for you and thought they could use you whenever they want just because they feel superior to you." He said as his eyes glazed over with the terrible memories.

"Sora… you sounded like you've been through that kind of treatment, but more… I don't know, harsh? Did something happen to you?" Tsuna could hear concerns in Skull's voice.

The model shook his head, "I'm fine, Skull. I…" he rather not talks about it and have a flashback of terrible memories. "…I gotta go." He glanced over the clock, it's nearly nine o'clock and he needs to sleep in early for the work tomorrow. "Sorry."

"Oh! No, you don't have to apologize. I understand. Busy work tomorrow, right? So, good night, Sora."

Tsuna nodded, "Good night, Skull."

"Oh wait!" Tsuna paused and bring his phone back to his ear with curious, "…I don't know what happened to you and I have a feeling you rather not talk about it. I can understand that. So, just know that I'm here for you, Sora. We are friends."

The petite model blinked then smiles warmly, "Thank you, Skull. Good night." He said warmly.

"Night! Sweet dream."

Tsuna hung up his phone and placed his phone on the side bedtable, "Skull is really nice." He whispered then head to bed.

Elementi Project: Part Six

…

..

.

Location: Mondo Studio

Time: Morning of 6:46

Tsuna stretched his arms above his head while his mother is sipping her wonderful warm coffee. They both have arrived at the studio ninety-nine. Nana sighed heavenly, "This coffee never gets old." She murmured then glanced at her son. She couldn't believe her son work so hard this far and she was very excited to see what this next project is like.

"Sora!" Kikyo beamed at his model and the manager walked inside the studio. The photographer made a beeline toward to them, "It's a good thing you're here early. And right on time. Your new partner just arrived here a few minutes ago." Kikyo informed them. He turned his head over his shoulder, "Viper, come here!" he called out his other model.

Tsuna and Nana leaned forward to observe the next model, it was a rather interesting first impression for them. A model has purple hair that grown to his collarbones, milky-white skin, and two triangular purple markings on his cheeks that extend to his jawline. He wears black sweater with a hood that covered his eyes, black ripped jeans with a silver chain on his left side, and black and white van shoes. Behind him, Lal followed as she greeted Nana and Tsuna with a nod from her head.

Kikyo turned around, "Sora, meet Viper, your new partner for the next project. Viper, meet Sora." He introduced his models to each other professionally, "Now, let's start with the project." He rubbed his hands with an excited smile on his face.

"Alright, part five of Elementi Project is Mist. 'Illusione Di Nebbia', it means Illusion of Mist in Italian. It's about Nebbia and Cielo meet each other by fate and fell in love. However, they held a secret. Nebbia is a commoner boy while Cielo is a rich girl. Her family is strict about rules and lifestyles. An image is important to them and they won't hesitate to stop their daughter from seeing Nebbia. Nebbia knew and he doesn't stop seeing her though, he loves her too much. Nebbia and Cielo always meet each other in secrets in the shadow of the mist. They both live in their own illusion for a while. However, it's not a fairytale for them, they both went through hard times but in the end, they still stay together." Kikyo explained the story of the new project.

Nana nearly swoons at the forbidden love story, "Like Romeo and Juliet." She sighed softly. Kikyo smiles at her and nodded his head.

Lal hummed, "Not bad." She approved the story behind this element project. It's rather fitting, after all.

The photographer turned to his models, "You both know where the dressing rooms are, correct?" his models nodded their heads, "Bene. They have your clothes prepare. Go, go." He shooed them, "Better start the first set as soon as possible." He said.

Nana and Lal followed the photographer to the first set, it's Victorian stairs made of grey stones against the dark indigo wall. "Wow." The sight of large stairs amazed Nana while Lal raised her eyebrows. This is nothing news to Lal since she has seen many things in her job.

One of the workers walked toward to the photographer, "Here's your camera." He handed the camera to Kikyo. Kikyo thanked him and overlook his precious camera.

"Time is money." Nana, Lal, and Kikyo nearly jumped when Viper suddenly appeared out of nowhere. They turned around and saw Viper's clothes for the first set.

He wears an indigo jacket with hood covered his eyes; unzipped that shows his black shirt with white frog totem styles on the front, black jeans, indigo jumper boots with black laces, and black choker with an indigo flame on the middle. Simple yet dark mysterious.

"Ah, you look nice." Kikyo approved of his model's appearance, he knew that his model is very protective of his eyes even though the photographer doesn't understand but respect it and leave at that.

Nana and Lal noticed another model walked up, "You look beautiful, Sora-chan." Nana said with awed.

Tsuna blushed, he wears indigo spaghetti straps of cropped mini tops, black wrap skirt to his knee-length, black ankle strap heels, and his hair was comb and straighten with indigo flame-shape comb pins on the side. His fingernails are painted in indigo colors, silver and indigo bangles wrapped around his left wrist, silver crystals bracelet wrapped around his right wrist, and a sliver right index ring finger with an indigo stone on the middle.

"You both look perfect." Kikyo said with positive beamed, "Now, Viper and Sora, I want you both head to the stairs. Viper, stay at the bottom and Sora, I want you to climb on the top. Once you are on the top, you will climb down the stairs while Viper, you will climb up the stairs. This is where Nebbia and Cielo first met, okay? Now… go." Kikyo lifted his camera and pressed the button. Click. Click. Click.

In the set; Sora placed her hand on the wall while she climbed down slowly. Viper climbed up the stairs with his hands tucked in his front pockets, gracefully and smoothly. When they both brushed their shoulders against each other.

Sora was startled back by such static shock that she nearly misses a step and Viper immediately grabbed her elbow. The petite model leaned against Viper and glanced up in surprise. Her large caramel-eyes stared at his face, even though half of his face was covered with a hood.

The petite model blushed, "T-thank you." She whispered softly while she felt embarrasses. She couldn't believe she nearly trip, once again during the set.

Viper hummed, "So, it's true. You are a natural klutz." He sighed, "I would charge you for that, but you lack balance since birth, I assumed." He blankly said.

Sora sweatdropped, "C-charge me?"

"Money." Viper blurted with a hint of greedy that Sora sweatdropped once again. Then the male model helped Sora balance herself on the stairs. "This will be free of charge. Next time, I will charge you." Sora smile awkwardly at her partner.

"H-hai. Th-thank you?" Sora said, awkwardly. Click. Click. Click.

Kikyo mumbled to himself as he was satisfied with his models. He glanced at the workers, "Give me another camera for the next set." He ordered. The photographer turned back to his models, "Bene. Good job, now head to the dressing room for the next clothes." He informed them.

Tsuna and Viper climbed down the stairs, head to their own dressing room where their Make-Up Artists are waiting.

Nana tilted her head, "Sora-chan looks… not uncomfortable but more awkward." She mused out loud in concerned.

Lal sighed knowingly. "Probably because Viper told Sora that he will charge her if he helps her 'volunteering'." She fingers quote the word.

"What do you mean by charge?" Nana asked with curious.

The manager crossed her arms, "Viper likes money. He controls the financially over his bank along with the company bank. And he's damn good at it." She admitted it. "However, he won't easily help without any charge. It's just how he is."

"…he's an interesting character." Nana said with interested. She never meets anyone with that type of personality before, but it makes it more unique in the world. Then the managers followed the photographer to the next set, it was two grey bricks wall facing each other that covered a few indigo splattered paints. "Is this alleyway?" Nana guessed it.

Kikyo smiles at Nana with a nod, "Correct. The second set is an alleyway." He checked over his different camera after one of the workers switched it for him. Kikyo turned on the flash along with color and tint lenses.

Lal and Nana noticed Viper walked in, they examined his clothes for the second set. His hair is tied back in a low pony-tail with a black baseball cap that covered his eyes, indigo v-neck sweater with long sleeves that barely touch his fingernails, black choker, black ripped skinny jeans, indigo converse shoes with black shoelaces. He also has a dangling silver earring with a cross on his left ear and black index right ring finger. He looks very casual yet dark mysterious that Kikyo was obviously satisfied when he beamed at his model.

Then, Tsuna arrived with a different outfit. He wears an indigo casual maxi dress, black canvas shoes, black choker, and his waist-length hair is in French braids pigtails. He wears a silver cuff bracelet wrapped around his left wrist and indigo beaded bracelet wrapped around his right wrist.

"You both look so good-looking!" Nana praised the models' appearances. Lal agreed with the manager while Kikyo couldn't wait for the next set.

"Alright, Viper, Sora… this next set is the alleyway. This is when Cielo and Nebbia meet the first few times and became friends. Only in secret since Cielo couldn't risk letting her family discover her relationship with the Nebbia. So, I need you both pretend that you are meeting with each other in secret and get along, alright? Eccellente." Kikyo captured the scene with his camera. Click. Click. Click.

In the set; Sora leaned her back against the brick wall with her hands clasped back while Viper leaned against his back on the brick wall across from Sora. They both just stare at each other in silent yet not an uncomfortable atmosphere.

A photographer speaks up, "Viper, place your right hand next to Sora's head. Like you are pretending to whisper to her once you got close to her. Enough that she can hear you. Just like that!" a snapping heard from a camera.

Viper had placed his hand next to Sora's head, he leaned down a little while Sora unintentionally blushed at the closeness between them. She could smell his scent that reminds her of sandalwood and lemongrass. It was a rather pleasant smell. Her caramel-eyes glanced up slowly however, Viper lifted his free hand to cover her eyes.

"Non ti mostrerò i miei occhi." Viper whispered in his native tongue and Sora frowned in confusion.

"W-what?" Sora stuttered in puzzled. However, Viper didn't repeat his words nor attempt to change his language to Japanese. Just stared at her face even though he is covering her eyes. Then Viper pushed himself away from Sora and dropped his hands away.

Sora blinked few times and noticed Viper turned to the camera while holding his hat a little bit lower to cover his eyes further. Click. Click. Click.

"Splendido! Now off to the three set, you both may head back to the dressing room and start another outfit!" Kikyo said.

Nana and Lal watched the models head to the dressing room. "I wonder what Viper-san whispered to Sora-chan earlier?" she mused out loud with curious.

Lal shrugged her shoulders. "Probably about money or warning her about something. I do not know. Viper is… a rather perplexed model."

The managers followed the photographer to the next set and saw a rather fancy bed. It has a Queen-size bed with an indigo blanket with black bedskirt that touches the ground, a few black pillows along with small decorative indigo pillows, black nightstands between the bed with small matching lamps, the floor was plushy light indigo carpet, and the wall was painted cream-color.

"Wow." Nana was amazed by such fancy bedroom while Lal was impressed with the decoration. The photographer beamed at the managers.

"I know, right? It took nearly three hours to get this set ready, it all thanks to the volunteer who is skilled with interior designs." Kikyo explained, then he went to one of the workers to clean the lens of his camera.

Nana felt a vibration from her cell phone. She took out her phone from her pocket and saw a message from Gamma. She opened the inbox and learned that Gamma couldn't pick her and Sora up since he has to drive his boss to an important meeting. Nana understood and replied the text that she'll find a ride from someone else.

"Is everything okay?" Lal asked with curious when she saw worried in the manager's eyes.

Nana frowned. "Well, Gamma-kun is unavailable to take Sora-chan and I to the hotel since he has to take his boss to the meeting. So, I need to ask someone for a ride." She explained.

Lal raised her eyebrows. "I see. I could give you and Sora a ride." She offered.

"Are you sure?" Nana asked with hope and concerned. Lal nodded her head and Nana smiles wide in relief. "That's great! Thank you, Lal!" she decided to text Gamma to let him know that she and Sora got a ride and that he doesn't need to worry about it.

After a few minutes later, two models arrived almost simultaneously. Viper wears a loose grey tank top, a black and indigo checkers patterns sweater, dark grey sweatpants, black converse shoes, and black sunglasses. His hair tied back in low pony-tail with nose-length bangs. He wears a silver gold index ring left finger and indigo stud earrings.

Tsuna wears an indigo oversize sweater, black shorts that barely peek, and his hairstyle changed to a messy, flowery side bun with fringes and braided headband. He is cleared from any accessories except his fingernails are painted in indigo colors.

Kikyo came with a different camera to his models, "Alright. This is Cielo's bedroom, and this is when Cielo and Nebbia secretly meet in her bedroom to hang-out and also this is when they discovered they have feelings for each other. You can say, this is where and when they both confess their feelings." He explained, "Now, Sora I want you to go sit on the bed and get comfortable as you can. Pretend this is your bedroom, okay? Viper, I want you to sit on the edge of the bed, close to Sora enough that I want you to hold her hand. Bene. Just like that." Kikyo grinned widely as he held up his camera. Click. Click. Click.

In the set; Sora sits on her butt with her legs curled on the sides on the bed, close to the pillows. She moved a few pillows around her as if she has been resting on her bed for a while. Viper sits on the edge of the bed, comfortably while he reached for her hand.

When Viper grabbed her hand, he placed it between the space. Sora shyly glanced up from the entwined hands to a model's face. Even though he covered his eyes, she knew Viper must be very mysteriously handsome.

Sora couldn't help but wonder what his eyes color is like. 'It could be a pretty icy blue? But it doesn't seem fitting his look though. Maybe a lovely shade of green or possibly hazel? Or ordinary yet dark brown eyes?' she mused with many possibilities of Viper's mystery eyes color.

Viper tilted his head with curious when he noticed Sora is deeply contemplating, in her own world. "A free for your thought?" he asked.

Sora snapped out of it then stared at him in confusion. "Sorry?"

"A free for your thought?" Viper repeated calmly.

Sora blinked. "A free for my thought… don't you mean a penny for my thought?"

Viper shook his head. "I refuse to pay for it." He deadpanned.

Sora sweatdropped. "Ah… but… it's just an idiom. I'm sure it doesn't mean literally." She said softly.

Viper stared at her blankly. "…people paid me in cash whenever they want to know my thoughts."

The petite model sweatdropped once again, she has no idea what to say about that. "Uhh… you really like money, don't you?" she said with an awkward smile.

The male model nodded his head. "Of course. Money is very valuable and important. You buy everything with money no matter what."

"That's true…" Sora placed her finger on her chin, "But… not everything. You can't buy a few things with money."

Viper raises his eyebrows. "Like what?" he is skepticism.

The petite model hummed softly then smiles wide. "Love."

"Hmm, not true. Money can buy lust, attraction, and power." Viper pointed out.

Sora shook her head. "But not love. Because love is something intimate, something heartfelt, something mysterious. It's part of human being. I mean, I know money could manipulate people's thoughts and it does certainly attract them to get close to you. But… they aren't true friends, most true friends, family, and lover won't care about money, because you, yourself being is what truly matters." She passionately said.

The male model stared at Sora with intrigue. "Interesting." He murmured.

"Viper, I would like you to peck Sora's hand. Bene." Kikyo ordered as he continued snapping his camera.

Viper lifted the petite model's hand upward to his lip and softly peck it. Sora blushed hard, she never had her hand pecked by anyone before, but it was a rather exciting experience for her. Click. Click. Click.

"Meraviglioso!" Kikyo loved it. "Alright, one more set then we'll take a lunch break. Models, head back to the dressing room and change to your next outfit, please." He watched his models climbed out of the bed and left to their dressing room. "Phew, today has been going rather smoothly, don't you think Yun, Lal?" he asked two managers with interested.

Nana nodded her head, "Hai. I can see Sora-chan and Viper are getting along nicely. I'm glad to see nothing bad happen." She said.

Lal placed her hands on her hips. "I've got to say, Viper didn't cause any problem or start making any debt. Your Sora is probably one of the few models that Viper won't mind working with again."

"Really? I'm glad." Nana beamed at her friend.

Kikyo hummed. "I agreed. It wasn't easy to work with someone like Viper. However, since Sora was tolerable to work within Verde's opinion wouldn't be hard for her to work with Viper. I'm glad Arcobaleno is working very well with Sora." He said with pleased.

The manager sighed, "Well, true most of them liked working with her. However, there are two members left and I don't know what their opinion will be about once they work with her. Well, maybe one of them might be okay with her but the other…" she trailed off with a face when she thinks of that particular model.

"I'm sure everything will be fine. I believe in Sora-chan and Arcobaleno that will make this project successful." Nana said with optimistic.

Kikyo half-grinned at Nana, "That's right! I believe this project will success too." The photographer and the manager exchanged their smiles while Lal could've sworn she saw sparkling flowers appeared behind them.

After thirty minutes, the models appeared for the next set. Viper wears a black tank top, dark indigo jeans, black and indigo flannel shirt tied around his hip, a silver necklace with a frog as a charm underneath his heart, a black leather braided bracelet wrapped around his left wrist, black belt with light indigo frog patterns, and indigo low-top sneaker. And his hair flows freely to his collarbones with a black baseball cap to cover his eyes once again.

Tsuna wears indigo hoodies, black skinny jeans, black and indigo converse shoes, and his hairstyle changed to side high ponytail with an indigo ribbon. He wears a silver with indigo gemstone ring in his left pinky, a shimmering indigo belt, and indigo gemstones earrings.

Kikyo smiles widely, "Alright, follow me to the next set." He beckoned his models, walked to the next set while the managers followed behind. The next set they arrived was a dark indigo background. "This is when Cielo and Nebbia were hiding and spend their time together. They are on a date, even though it's not perfect because of the secret and the hiding. They both still were happy and satisfied because they are together." The photographer explained. "Now, Sora and Viper, I want you both to stand in the middle, not too close to the background. Just like that. Alright, now I want you both to pretend that you are on a date and currently enjoy it. Remember, Cielo and Nebbia don't often go out on a date because of the risk with expose. Understand? Bene." Kikyo half-smile as he held up his previous camera. Click. Click. Click.

In the set; Viper and Sora stood in front of each other, the male model placed his hand behind Sora's head and pulled her to his chest. Sora blushes softly, however, she grabbed Viper's tank top in her tiny fists.

Viper tilted his chin on top of her head making the shadow from his hat covered his eyes perfectly that the camera won't capture the true colors of his eyes.

Sora bit her inner cheek while she's been thinking in her own world. 'I really am curious what his eyes colors are? And I wonder why he refuses to show anyone his eyes? Does he not like it? Or maybe his eyes are sensitive?' Then Sora understanding, "…maybe that's why…" she murmured softly, but Viper heard it.

"Maybe what's why?" Viper asked with curious.

Sora blinked and blushed with embarrassed that she spoke out loud. "Nothing. Just thinking." She mumbled to herself.

Viper frowned. "…are you ever going to tell me what you are thinking?"

The petite model shook her head, "It's just a silly thought." Then a small mischievous smile appeared on her face, "Unless you pay me a pretty penny, I'll tell you?" she jokily.

"….money is important and must not waste on unnecessary things." Viper blunted.

Sora sweatdropped, "I'm just kidding, Viper-san." She said, sheepishly. "I promise you this, it's just a silly thought."

Viper hummed silently while hugging Sora in his arms while Sora comfortably leaned her head against his chest. Click. Click. Click.

"Ottimo! Now, let's take a lunch break! Be back here in half an hour, thank you!" Kikyo informed his models, workers, and others.

.

.

Tsuna is sitting with his mother while eating his sandwich as he is listening to his mother about Gamma unavailable and that Lal volunteer to take them back to the hotel. "Will Gamma-san be available tomorrow?" Tsuna asked with curious.

Nana nodded her head. "Hai. Just for today, he couldn't do it. It was a last-minute meeting for his boss."

The petite model hummed as he swallowed his food. He grabbed his water bottle and took a couple of sips.

"By the way, Lal-chan told me that Viper-san likes to collect money and he controls the finances. He is actually brilliant with it, according to Lal-chan." Nana enlightens her son about the male model.

Tsuna blinked and sweatdropped, "He really likes money." He mumbled.

Nana giggled, "That he does. However, despite his strange obsessed with cash. I think he seems intriguing character."

The petite model agreed with his mother, "True. And he's not unkind." He is grateful to work with nice models so far in this project.

.

.

Nana and Lal stared at the fancy baloney in the last set. "Wow." Nana was awed at the beauty. It was covered with veins, white and indigo roses entwined around the rails.

"Beautiful, right?" Kikyo speaks up as he came up behind the managers with a charming smile. Nana nodded her head while Lal was impressed with the set.

"Sora! You look positively pretty!" all heads turned and saw Tsuna wears beautiful indigo knee-length party dress with asymmetric strapped, black with shimmering indigo glitters platform heels, and his hair changed to French twist ponytail with indigo gemstones ribbon. His fingernails are covered in black nails polish, multiples black, silver, and indigo bangle bracelets wrapped around his right wrist, black choker with an indigo gemstone on the middle, and indigo drop earrings.

Tsuna smiles shyly as he thanked a few workers who praised his appearance. Nana beamed at her son's beautiful look, 'He looks so lovely! I wonder what he looks like if he wears a suit instead?' she mentally squealed as she believes that he'll look very handsome in a suit as well.

Kikyo grinned widely at his little model then noticed his other model appeared as well. "You look dashing, Viper." He approved.

Viper wears dress black shirt tucked into black jeans, an indigo vest with a silver chain in a small pocket that connect to the third button, and black converse shoes. He hair was free from any accessories, and he wears black sunglasses. The only accessory he wears is an indigo stud earring in his left ear.

"Alright! Now to the last set, this is when Cielo is attending her family party, and she is alone without any date. She couldn't bring Nebbia because, as usual, her family will disapprove and since it's a secret relationship. Cielo decided to stay out in the baloney alone until Nebbia arrived, Cielo was surprised but happy. It may not be perfect but to them, it's a wonderful experience. They spend their night dance underneath the sky on the baloney in their own world." Kikyo explained while adjusted his camera lenses. "Sora, I want you to rest against the rail, and Viper, I want you to appear behind her and pretend that you did it to surprise her. And from there, I want you both to start the dance, understand? Bene." The photographer quickly pressed his button. Click. Click. Click.

In the set; Sora leaned against the rail with her arms folded on top. She stared up at the sky with thoughtful eyes. Then Viper walked up to her, he reached her shoulder which surprised Sora. She turned around and eyes wide when she saw Viper.

Viper gently moved a piece of Sora's hair away from her eyes and tuck behind her ear. He grabbed her hand and placed on his shoulder then take her other hand as his other hand touched on her back.

Sora blushes when Viper pulled her close to him and started to swing gently together. Slowly, a smile appeared on her face as she is enjoying the small gentle dance with her partner.

"Normally…" Sora glanced up with curious. "…normally I don't care what people think. But for some reason, I can't help but curious about what you are thinking." Viper tilted his head. "And for some bizarre reason, I'm willing to pay for your thoughts." He whispered.

The petite model blinked in shocked then she shook her head, "You don't have to pay for my thought, Viper-san. If you really want to know what my thoughts are, then I guess I can tell you even though it is silly." Sora said.

Viper raised his eyebrow. "Just like that?" he was skepticism.

Sora shrugged her shoulders. "It is involved you." She blushed hard. Viper hummed as he waited for her to explain what her thoughts were. "…well, I've been wondering what your eyes color is. I thought maybe it would be something icy blue or maybe a dark brown. And then, I've been curious about why you are hiding your eyes until I thought, maybe your eyes are very sensitive. So, I could understand why you always hid your eyes."

A small half-smirk appeared on Viper's face. "Is that so?"

"Hai. As I said, it's just silly thoughts. You don't need to tell me anything." Sora said with an understanding smile. "People have reasons they hide, and we should just respect it and leave it that way." Viper stared at her then hummed softly. Click. Click. Click.

"Bellissimo! Well done!" Kikyo announced happily, "Part five of Elementi Project, Illusione Di Nebbia is succeeded!" applauded break out. "Good job, Sora, Viper!" he praised his models.

Nana clapped cheerfully, "I'm so happy that we managed to finish part five!" she quietly squealed while Lal nodded her head with a small smile on her face.

Location: Outside of Casa Hotel

Time: Afternoon of 6:46

Lal parked her car in front of the hotel, Nana turned to the driver with a grateful smile, "Thank you for dropping us off, Lal-chan."

Lal nodded her head. "Of course. I'll see you in the morning with the next model." She waved Nana and watched her fellow manager climbed out of the car.

Meanwhile, in the backseat, Viper and Tsuna have been sitting there quietly for the rest of the ride until they arrived Tsuna's temporary "home". Tsuna turned to his partner with a warm smile, "It's nice working with you, Viper-san." He half-bowed to the male model then unbuckled his seatbelt.

Before he reached for the door, Viper grabbed his elbow and pulled slightly. "Viper-san?" Tsuna turned back with confused. Silently, he gapped when he saw Viper's eyes that were supposedly covered in his hood. "Y-your… y-your eyes…" Tsuna whispered in awed.

He has never seen such phenomenal eyes before in his entire life.

Viper smirked at Tsuna, "Earlier, I did say I will not show you my eyes however, I'll make this exception just for you. You are truly one of the kind, Sora. Remember, just don't tell anyone." He winked then gently pushed Tsuna to the door. Viper kindly opened the door for Tsuna and watched in amused when petite model almost stumbled out of the car. 'So, they weren't kidding, after all, Sora is a natural clumsy.' He mused.

Nana and Tsuna watched the car drive away and the mother turned to her son but blinked in confused and wondering why her son's face is covered red. "Tsu-kun, are you okay?" she leaned to her son in concerned whispered.

Tsuna just reached her face and covered it. '….such beautiful eyes!' there's no way he'll ever forget Viper's exquisite color of eyes. Ever.

Location: Arcobaleno Apartment

Time: Nighttime of 9:05

A tall model man walked inside of his bedroom through the private bathroom. He gently drying his hair with a towel in his half-naked torso and loose black silk pajama pant. His sharp eyes glanced over to his King-size bed where the documents and folders are. He walked to it, pluck a photo up in his smooth long fingers and examined it.

In the photo of a petite model that he will be working with tomorrow. He hummed softly, he has been investigated the new model for a while and learned there's a little information about her. "You are the enigma, Sora." A devilishly smirked appeared on his face. "And I intend to solve it." He placed a photo on his lips lightly while his eyes glanced to the beautiful scenery outside of his windows. He is looking forward to it.
