Hello~ Tracy here

Thx for your reviews. Your reviews mean a lot to me. If you simply take a min or two to review on my story it makes me feel fuzzy inside. Your reviews will make me want to update faster. So plz review! And yes desu can be a little annoying, but its Haru needs it or else she won't be Haru so I will try to take away some desus.

This morning Haru woke up not feeling so good.

"Ugg, I don't feel so good. Haru must have caught a cold, uggg when was it this cold-desu."

She dressed up and ate her breakfast and headed for her school. She was lucky to join in an all-girls private school. Her good marks gotten her accepted and she certainly did not want to miss a day and get an absent on her report card. Nononono, nothing bad on her report card.

She remembered the last time she got a "B" on her report card or a, absent, her dad got furious and yelled at her for a good half an hour than studied for 3 hours straight. She certain didn't want that to happen again. But she knew they didn't care about her future. In fact they only cared about their reputation and didn't want a failure of a daughter.

She arrived just before the bell rang. "Yes, Haru made it right before the bell rang, thank goodness that I'm not late."

"Haru you don't look so well. Your face is so red, I almost mistaken you for Janet." said her best friend.

(Janet is a girl with serious acne problems)

"Hahi, Helen don't be so mean to her. She has no friends and now people are making fun of her behind her back-desu."

I'm sorry Haru, but seriously you don't look so well."

"It's ok Helen. You just worry too much-desu"

The first two periods she was ok, at the end of the third period she became dizzy and her vision blurred, then everything blacked out.

When she woke up she realized that she wasn't in her classroom and she was wrapped in a white blanket. When she got up she realized that she was in the nurse's room. She stood up and hastily headed to the office to grab her things. She started to walk back to class when the secretary came in the room.

Haru admired the school secretary, . Her name was Elizabeth Clowater; Haru learned that when she was in grade 5, told only her and not anyone else she she felt special. Mrs. Clizer was like a model; she was a brunette with beautiful hazel eyes. She was also very nice though can be strict sometimes.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, where in the world do you think you are going?"

"Hahi, um back to class Haru guess."

"Not in that condition you don't! What if you faint in class again? The poor teacher nearly freaked out when he heard a big bang at the back of the classroom when you passed out and hit your head. He thought it was a gun. Also when you fell he thought that you got shot and died."

"Oh, sorry; but what about my perfect attendance-desu?"

"I knew you'd say that, well leave that to me. Let's pretend that you never left and keep this between you and me." she said and winked. "Oh and don't stress yourself, take tomorrow off and the day after if needed."

"Hahi, thank you so much!"

She just smiled.

Haru walked to her locker and put her books back. Then she headed home with her backpack full of homework.

When she arrived home she changed into her PJs, climbed into bed and fell asleep immediately.

She woke up startled. She didn't even know what woke her up. Until the doorbell rang the second time.

"Go away! Leave Haru alone! Haru wants to sleep, leave Haru alone!" Haru whoever at the door was very impatient, the doorbell just kept on ringing. At the end she finally gave up, crawled out of bed and went to open the door. As soon as she opened the door, the words weren't pleasant.

"Stupid woman! What's wrong with you, getting sick and making the tenth worry, and to add to that you lock us outside to freeze the tenth." Shouted Gokudera.

"Hey, hey calm down I'm sure Haru didn't mean to lock us out here." said Yamamoto, trying to keep everyone calm.

"Shudup! Baseball geek, nobody wants to hear your annoying voice anyways, your just pissing me off even more.

"That's not a very nice thing to say, Gokudera. I'm sure Yamamoto was trying to make the situation better and Haru would never lock us out, bet she just woke up." said Tsuna trying to stop Gokudera's ramble.

"Yes tenth, of course your always right!"

"Y-yeah, that's right. I'm pretty sure that Yamamoto was trying to help and for your info I just woke up and who are you calling stupid woman you moron." she stammered a little on the yeah when she saw Tsuna.

Sill as handsome and caring as ever she thought, but then the image of Tsuna and Kyoko kissing suddenly got in her head.

Suddenly she didn't feel like talking anymore. In fact she wanted to get over this as fast as possible.

"Umm how did you know I was sick-desu?" she asked.

"Well usually you always come to our school for a picnic at lunch and you weren't there so we thought something was going on." said Yamamoto.

"Hahi, thank you for caring so much but it is ok. You can leave now and go home." she said the last sentence as nice and she could, but asking someone(s) out of your house isn't the nicest thing to do.

"Uhhh yeah, we were just going to deliver some fruits and leave." said Tsuna, realizing the tension. He put the fruits on the table and dragged the other two out the door and waving at the same time.

"Haru feels worse, ahh!" she said as she fell. "Haru's legs are all weak."

Then she dragged herself to her bed. This was the first time she was glad that her floors were carpet and not wood.

As she thought back why she hated the carpet it made her laugh. It was a few years ago when she was bringing orange juice to her room when her parents were out. Her mom specifically told her that no food or liquids are allowed out of the kitchen, but she was mad that they didn't bring her with them. So she thought this was revenge. She didn't plan to trip over a wire and spill the orange liquid over the snow white carpet. When her parents came home, she already tried to wash it off for 4 hours and tried to cover it as best as she could. But trying to cover a stain in the middle of a room wasn't easy. After she was scolded for the stain on the carpet, she promised herself to never even think about brining liquids near the carpeted rooms. Suddenly she was missing her parents even though they didn't care about her.

Next thing she knew, tears were rolling down her cheeks. "What are you doing Haru? Haru is strong; Haru must not cry and show her weakness no matter what." As soon as she reached her bed and pulled the cover over her head the bell rang again.

"You're kidding Haru right!" she yelled as hard as she could hoping the person outside could hear her. The bell didn't stop.

It was hard for her to do but she climbed out of bed and went to open the door. She swore to herself that if it was Gokudera she would curse him for 5 min straight. But the one at the door was not him but Kyoko, I-Pin and Lambo.

"Haru, are you alright? I heard from Tsuna that you were not feeling so well and I was worried sick about you. On the way I met I-Pin and Lambo and they wanted to come so I brought them as well." Kyoko said with worry in her voice.

Yeah of course you heard from Tsuna, since you ditch your best friend all by herself to make out with the boy your best friend likes Haru thought. But instead she said with her biggest smile, "Oh thank you so much for coming to see Haru. Haru already feels better when she sees her friends."

"Thank goodness your not feeling that bad" said I-Pin.

"Hahaha, Haru is so stupid. How can she catch a cold in this weather? But look at me, I'm perfectly fine, Lambo is invincible and awesome!" Lambo bragged.

"Lambo! That's not nice!" scolded I-Pin.

"Lambo, please don't say that. Haru already don't feel well and she doesn't need you to make her feel worse." said Kyoko.

"Ah its ok, Haru doesn't mind, but come inside for a bit. You might catch a cold too in that weather-desu."

"I bought some fruits on the way here." said I-Pin.

"I bought some of your favourite cake at the cake shop where we first met." said Kyoko.

"Hahi, thank you so much guys!" Haru said cheerfully.

"Haru are you sure it is just a cold you're having? Your face is all red and you aren't sneezing. Your symptoms look like that you actually have a fever." Kyoko said.

"Ah no, it probably is just a cold since Haru is abnormally weird anyways." she said, in her head she was saying, what are you my mother?

"Well, ok then if you say so." said Kyoko, but still worrying.

The four of them talked the whole afternoon about the celebration yesterday at Tsuna's house and why Haru left early. "Why did you leave early yesterday Haru?"

"Oh, Haru's mom called her and told her to come home because she wanted to tell Haru that she was leaving for a trip." Haru lied. Only if her parents even inform her if they leave or not, one day they could be even laughing a little and eating dinner together and the next day they would be gone without a trace. Also her parents have been gone for at least 2 weeks, when Haru was small she would count days but now if she counted she would just get sad. She would also realize that it really wouldn't matter counting or waiting or not because if she gave them a warm welcome they would just look at her and nod then head to their room to rest. Haru suddenly popped out of her daydream when someone poked her. "Haru are you ok, you've been spacing out to everything I've said so far.

"Oh sorry, say Kyoko what were you"-DING DONG!

"I'll get that!" said Kyoko.

Haru was just about to ask her what she was doing yesterday when she said she was going to the washroom even though she already knew. She wanted to see if Kyoko wanted to keep it a secret or not.

"Ummm, Haru can we talk tomorrow? My brother came to pick me up." Kyoko said when she came back.

"Oh, it's ok" she said a little disappointed.

"Come on I-Pin and Lambo, you wouldn't want to bother Haru while she is sick, and Haru you should start sleeping to recover faster. Bye see you tomorrow."

"Haru sleep now and start some EXTREME recovery!" said Ryohei.

"Hahi, thanks guys for coming over!"

As they left Haru went to close the door. She was about to rip out the doorbell. "Ugg, stupid doorbell, its all your fault that Haru can't sleep." She waddled to her bed preparing to sleep a good 12 hours. When she was about to reach her bed, she felt really warm and light headed. She suddenly blacked out. Oh great yay this is great she thought.

Earlier that day

He was not having the best day. He only beat 3 people today for loitering in the halls. He decided to sleep on the roof to day again. As he was walking he bumped into a herbivore, Sawada to be exact. "Hibari-san I'm so sorry! Please forgive me!" he begged. "Unlucky for you I was just about to train, maybe you would like to be my opponent." Hibari said with a smirk.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH"

Tsuna was lucky that day; he only came out with a few bruises and a black eye.

When he was heading to the roof again he passed by the younger Sasagawa and heard that Haru wasn't feeling so good. Who cares if she is sick, she breaks the school rules anyways.

On the way home he met the younger Sasagawa again. "Oh, hi Hibari you should go see Haru today, she is sick." she said without a sign of fear. The Sasagawas are stupid he thought.

"For what particular reason?" he asked.

"Well I saw you guys at the park yesterday and I thought you might want to see her. You don't have to but you pass her house on the way home so why not?" she said then stuffed something in his arms then running away at top speed. Maybe shes not that stupid.

He checked what she stuffed in his arms, it was a strawberry shortcake. "Hump, might as well go"

He rang the door bell for a few times. You ask why he knew it was her house. Well it was the only house that was painted in an ugly yellow with "Muria" in a blood red colour. He waited for about 5 mins. Some people might think Hibari was very patient because of his calm appearance. But inside he was actually pretty impatient, and also worried. After 10 mins he decided to make a move. He kicked the door open. "What a cheap door" he said to himself, he gave a wimpy kick and it already broke.

He walked inside, on the table were all kinds of fruits and a box, probably cake the thought. He dropped the strawberry shortcake and decided to advance to the living room. What an ugly orange stain in the middle of the carpet he thought. He tried to find the stairs but no stairs were in sight. "Must be a bungalow house." He said to himself. When he was walking down a hallway full of pictures of Haru he saw lying on the floor. He nudged her with his foot and said, "Muria you dead?" He crouched down and put his hand on her forehead, when he put his hand on he immediately jerked it back. "Holy shit it's hot." Now Hibari is no Albert Einstein but he knows that if her fever was high enough to make her faint, it was serious.

He quickly rushed to her closet and pulled out a winter jacket and carried her bridal style to his motorcycle. He was so rushed he forgot to wear his jacket. He went full speed to Namimori Hospital. If you saw him driving that day you would think, yes he is finally getting chased by the police for all his violence.

When he reached the hospital, he explained rashly that she had a high fever. The office secretary told him to it over by the benches to wait for his turn, but one glare made her change her mind and she got the closest room ready for Haru.

Haru was having the strangest dream. She was falling through an endless cave full of dark colours. Then suddenly just like Alice in Wonderland she fell on a black and red chequered floor. Then instead of a table she saw Tsuna and Kyoko kissing. She was crying in her dream, but they did not notice her at all. Next thing she knew the colours became brighter. Hibari entered through one of the doors and Kyoko ran. Then Hibari forced Tsuna in a Cabbage costume. Then Hibari's outfit changed and he was in a chef outfit with a huge vegetable knife. He was chasing Tsuna. Next thing she knew she was laughing.

"Ugg, where am I?" Haru got up from her strange dream. When she smelled the faint alcohol smell and saw that she was in a white room she realized that she was in the hospital.

"Hello there, how are you feeling?" asked a cheerful nurse.

"Better than before I guess. Um can I ask you how long have been I sleeping?"

"I don't really know when you fainted but you've been sleeping here for about 16 hours."

"Thank you and another question how did I get here?"

"What you don't remember? Well your boyfriend over there rode his motorcycle over here without any jacket when its -16 degrees." she said while pointing to Hibari who was snoozing lightly.

Haru blushed and said thank you.

After a while when Hibari woke up, he looked at her and nodded.

"Thank you so much Hibari-san! It must have been a lot of trouble-desu."

He nodded again and said, "You owe me Muria." handed her a piece of paper and left.

She read the paper. "What $200 for the hospital bill!

Hibari popped his head through the door. "You can pay me back anytime" and left with a smirk.

Thank you Hibari-san she said in her mind.

Was that better than last time? Thank you for your reviews! To tell you earlier, the next chapter will be shorter than this one, about the same length as the first one. I think I will write a sequel to "If he listened." Plz review ^_^
