Chapter 2
Decode
Tsuna had no idea how much trouble Nana really was.
That afternoon, Nana sat down next to Tsuna on the rooftop to eat lunch with him. "Why are you here?" Tsuna asked, not quite kindly.
Nana ignored his tone of voice. "Because it's my job. Trust me, I'm not here because I want to be." She bit into her onigiri, propping her feet up.
"Hey Tsuna!" A cheery voice came out of nowhere.
Both Nana and Tsuna turned around to see Yamamoto Takeshi and Gokudera Hayato heading over. Nana suddenly began to blush, and Tsuna rolled his eyes. Great, he thought. Another Gokudera fangirl.
Yamamoto sat down next to Nana and said (cheerfully of course), "Hey, you're the new transfer, Akatsuki Nana, right?"
Nana turned a vivid shade of red, and Tsuna realized that for once, a girl liked Yamamoto more than Gokudera. "Y-yes," she said.
Quite unexpectedly, Yamamoto reached out and grabbed a lock of her wavy hair, feeling it. "Wow," he said, "your hair sure is pretty, Nana-chan."
Nana blushed a red so vivid, that Tsuna thought his eyes might be fried from the sheer brightness. "Ex-excuse me," she stuttered and ran off, tripping over her own feet three times before she finally reached the stairs.
Gokudera blew out a cloud of cigarette smoke. "Weird girl," he said.
Tsuna sighed.
Later…
The last bell rang, and Nana gathered up her stuff to head to archery club. Suddenly, a hand came down on her shoulder and she turned around to see no other than (you guessed it!) Yamamoto.
"Hey, Nana-chan," he said with a big smile. "You're going to archery right? I'll walk you over, since baseball is right next to it."
Nana (once again) blushed a bright shade of red and ran off. (Again. Poor Yama-chan.)
"Weird girl," Gokudera said as he passed by on his way home.
