Author Notes: I know I haven't updated in months but I couldn't think on how to write this chapter.
I wrote it long like I said I was and I really hope you guys like it and the new characters you're going to meet. Enjoy~
Gokudera tied his hair up and put his glasses on. He picked up the piece of paper from the coffee table and looked at it. Minori, who was sitting next to him, looked at his ponytail with a smile. She leaned over the couch and reached towards her desk.
Grabbing a pair of scissors, she opened them and was about to cut his hair, but he noticed. Minori quickly hid the scissors behind her and smiled innocently.
"Hey! What are you doing?"
"Nothing…"
"Tsk. Damn brat."
Gokudera went back to looking at the paper. Minori took out the scissors and tried cutting his hair again. She got a bit off but Gokudera grabbed her wrist, making her drop the scissors.
"What are you trying to do?" Gokudera asked.
"Nothing I swear!"
"Liar!"
"Fine I'll tell you. I wanted to know if your ponytail was actually your doggy tail. So I planned on cutting it to see if it hurt you."
"Tsk. I thought you would stop with that."
"Hey, just because you're my boyfriend doesn't mean I'm going to stop saying something that is very obviously true."
Gokudera "tsked" once again, making Minori laugh.
"Hey! Quiet down and let's get back to work!" Gokudera said.
"Oh, I don't need your help though."
Gokudera looked at the girl, who was now giving him a wide smile.
"Then why did you call me over?"
"Boredom. Let's go for a walk!"
Gokudera groaned as they stood up and put their coats on. Walking down the staircase, the young couple bumped into Tsuna.
"Juudaime!" Gokudera cheered.
"Hey Gokudera-kun, Minori." Tsuna waved.
"Hello." Minori smiled. "Want to join us?"
"Sure!" Tsuna smiled.
The three teens walked out of the building and headed to Yamamoto's place to pick him up.
"Hey Tsuna, we need to find you a girlfriend."
Minori put her arm around the brunettes shoulder. Tsuna blushed a bit.
"W-why do you say that?" He chuckled nervously.
"You need a girl in your life and I don't mean your mother. I mean a girl who loves you." Minori smiled.
"Juudaime doesn't need a girlfriend!" Gokudera snapped.
"Fine. We'll find him a boyfriend. How about Yamamoto?" Minori smiled even more widely.
Tsuna and Gokudera looked at her horrified. Minori glanced at Gokudera then at Tsuna.
"Don't look at me that way! Gokudera said you didn't need a girlfriend so I figured you were gay."
"I didn't mean it like that!" Gokudera said.
"Alright. If you say so." Minori stopped.
The two boys stopped with her and looked at her. Minori looked around.
"What's wrong?" Tsuna looked at her with concern.
"N-nothing. Just my imagination I guess."
"Tsk. Don't waste our time with you imagination."
Minori hit Gokudera's arm and they began walking again. They got to Yamamoto's and went inside the restaurant.
"Welcome!" Tsuyoshi greeted them.
"Hello!" The teens replied as they sat on the stools.
"Takeshi! Your friends are here!" Tsuyoshi called.
"That looks good." Minori looked at sushi and licked her lips. "What kind is it?"
"That's Sashimi. Want some?" Tsuyoshi asked.
Minori nodded. Tsuyoshi handed her a small plate with sashimi on it as Yamamoto came down. He looked at his friends and smiled.
"Hello!" He went behind the counter with his father.
"Hey Yamamoto." Tsuna said.
Gokudera just groaned. Yamamoto laughed.
"Now, now." He smiled.
"More please." Minori looked at the father and son.
"Which kind?" Tsuyoshi asked.
"Surprise me." The girl said.
"This one is good." Yamamoto handed her a plate of different sushi.
"I'll be back. Take care of the place for me."
Tsuyoshi took off his apron and gave it to Yamamoto.
"Okay."
Yamamoto put it on as his father left. The four teens started talking about various things. About ten minutes later, a boy about nineteen entered the place. The four teens looked at him. Minori bit her lip and faced back to the sushi, letting her hair fall in her face.
"Welcome!" Yamamoto smiled.
"Ugh friendly people." The boy muttered to himself.
The boy sat down on a stool away from them. He looked at the sushi and pointed at one of them.
"I want that one, that one and that one."
Yamamoto laughed as he got the sushi.
"What are they called?" The boy asked.
"Maki, Masu and Mirin." Yamamoto said.
The boy looked at the plate sitting in front of him.
"Maki is really good…" Tsuna pointed out.
The boy looked at him. He smiled.
"I guess I'll try that one first."
"Your Italian right?" Gokudera glared at the boy.
The boy looked at him and swallowed down the Maki.
"Yes I am. Did my accent give me away?"
"Tsk of course it did." Gokudera crossed his arms.
"Oh boo." The boy stuffed his mouth with the other two sushi.
"What part of Italy did you come from?" Yamamoto asked.
"La Verna. It's in a mountain range called Mount Penna." The boy said.
"Cool!" Yamamoto laughed a bit.
Tsuna looked at the boy. He didn't like the feeling he was getting from him yet he felt like he can trust him. He turned to Minori, who was poking at her sushi. From his hyper intuition he felt her being scared but of what?
"Oh boo, I have to get going."
The boy stood up and paid for the sushi.
"It was nice meeting you all. I didn't catch your guys' names. I'm Marcello."
"I'm Takeshi, that's Tsuna, Minori and Gokudera."
Marcello looked at the teens and smiled.
"Pleasure. I'm sure we will all be meeting again sometime soon."
With that, Marcello went out.
"I don't like him." Gokudera said.
"Why not?" Yamamoto and Tsuna asked.
"Just don't. He kept looking at Minori weird. Tsk. Damn brat why didn't you say something to him." Gokudera said.
"Because I don't talk to idiots." Minori looked at him. "Wait. Never mind. I forgot I talk to you."
"Tsk, don't call me an idiot!" Gokudera shouted.
Yamamoto laughed. Tsuna looked at them and smiled. He was happy to see Minori relaxed and cheerful again. He still couldn't help but wonder why Marcello's presence made her uncomfortable. He decided to ask when they were alone. So for now, he just joined in their conversation.
~*-A day later-*~
~*-La Verna, Luna Headquarters-*~
"Don't you dare talk back to me Emilio Luna!" His mother shouted as she held back the temptation to hit her oldest and only son. "Just because your sister is gone, doesn't give you the right to act like her! Her leaving us is the best thing that probably ever happened!"
Emilio narrowed his eyes at his mother before shoving his hands in his black leather coat and walking out the room. Two months. That's how long his little twin sister has been gone. He felt strange for the whole time. Everyone has been saying he has been acting like Minori more and more everyday.
Back talking, ignoring, and daydreaming while he's supposed to be doing his work. Yet, Emilio didn't care what they said about him. Though he won't stand if someone says something about his sister. Emilio was always the one to protect her. Even though she claims to never need it. But, he knew she secretly like it.
Walking to his office, he took a detour and stopped in his and Minori's room. They had always shared a room since they were little. Emilio went to Minori's side of the room. It was painted black. She had her bed lined up in the middle of the wall, a night stand on the left and a desk on the right.
Their private bathroom was a few feet away from her desk. He side was always neat.
"I like my things clean. You should try it." Minori would always say.
Emilio smiled. He looked at his side of the room. It was like Minori's but the walls were painted white and was messier. The furniture was lined up with hers, in the same order as well. Across the bathroom door was the closet door. In the back wall, was the window leading to the balcony.
Emilio laid on his bed. As he hugged his pillow, the bedroom door busted opened. Emilio looked over there. Standing there was his lovable, hyperactive, one of his best friends since he started school and sun guardian, Tosh. Tosh skipped over to his boss.
"Hey Tosh. What do you need?" Emilio asked.
"I got some good news, Bossy!" Tosh smiled.
Emilio motioned Tosh to continue talking.
"Marcello found Minori!"
Emilio quickly sat up and gripped Tosh's shirt. Tosh gulped. Half afraid he was going to get beat, and half afraid he was disappointing his boss.
"Where?"
"Japan with the Vongola Family in a city called Namimori."
"Get the rest of the guardians and meet me in my office."
"Minori being with the Vongola Family is wrong! It has to be! Vongola Nono told me that all his men said she wasn't with any of them." Emilio slammed his hands onto his desk.
"Well it seems that one of the men lied." Marcello, the cloud guardian, spoke as he looked out the window. "I know what I saw boss."
"Tell me what you saw again!" Emilio said.
"She was sitting in a restaurant with Vongola Decimo and his guardians I guess." Marcello yawned.
"How did you know it was her? It could have been anyone." Jun, the rain guardian, asked.
"How many Italian girls do you know that is named Minori?" Marcello asked.
"One." Jun bit his lip.
"Exactly."
"What do we do now?" Ciro, the lighting guardian, looked up from his cell phone.
Emilio looked at his guardians. They were all looking at him for their next movement.
"I haven't exactly thought of that yet." Emilio bit his lip.
"We know what we can do!" Jun and Tosh jumped up and down.
"Tell me." Emilio looked at them.
"Well, boss, Vincentio and Marcello can go the Japan and give them an invitation to the greatest ball ever!" Jun smiled.
"We're having a ball?" Celio, the mist guardian, looked at Jun.
"Yes. While boss and them are in Japan, the four of us are going to plan a perfect ball!" Jun smiled more.
"It can even be a black and white ball!" Tosh said.
The two boys kept talking about the ball. They were writing on the walls about what there were going to have and how they were going to have everything.
"You know boss, that isn't a bad idea." Vincentio, the storm guardian, looked at Emilio.
"Yes it is. Vincentio and Marcello, pack your bags. We're going to Japan first thing in the morning."
