I'm back! It's been a while, so i feel bad that i only have this petty little chapter... But summer break is here and I will work on this much more, now that schoolwork is not an issue! Everyone please enjoy this chapter and hope that the next one will be very soon! Oh, and please read the notes at the end of this chapter! None of the characters used in this story are mine, except for Chizune, all other characters belong to Akira Amano. *Bows to Amano-sensei for such great work*
The tears felt foreign on her soft cheeks. She had never felt such sorrow at loosing someone. Charles had been her life, she loved him more than she loved herself. No one but him had ever brought her such happiness. She contemplated committing suicide right there on the spot.
"Ugh! This book is so corny, I feel like committing suicide myself!" Chizune whined as she threw the book she was assigned for literature, down on the bed. She flopped back on the bed and Cocoa jumped on her stomach. "At least you don't assign stupid books." She said to the cat, playing with its paws. "Romance novels are so not my thing... Real love isn't this... fake!"
Chizune watched the leaves on the trees outside her window bend under the rain. It had been a week since the trip to the amusement park and the weather had slowly taken a turn to rain. Chizune hated it when it rained. "This is sooo depressing!" She whined more as she glared out the window. "I'm sick of being stuck in this house!" She looked over at her phone. "I wonder if Tsuna'd mind if I came over..." She kept debating with herself until she decided that she wanted to see him more than be stuck in the house any longer.
Tsuna threw his pencil down on the table. "This math is waaay too confusing!" He flopped back on the ground. Reborn was sitting next to him in a small chair.
"Why don't you call Chizune over, she's good at math." He said, sipping on coffee. Tsuna sat up.
"That'd be mean, it's pouring out there!" He pointed out while staring out his window. 'Maybe I could go over to her house then...' He thought with a little smile.
As if repeating Tsuna's thoughts Reborn suggested that very same thing. He thought about how that'd work out, over and over in his head until he decided he REALLY needed to get that math homework done.
Chizune walked down the road dressed up in a bright lime green raincoat with a polka-dot umbrella. She wondered if Tsuna'd be surprised to see her randomly show up at his doorstep.
Tsuna walked the opposite way in a blue jacket. He kept thinking about how rude it was to show up without calling first, but he kind of wanted to surprise Chizune.
Chizune saw some flowers being slowly crushed by the downpour and held her umbrella over them. "Poor flowers... this kind of weather is terrible for you, huh?" She mumbled as she saw someone walking up the road.
Tsuna heard someone talking quietly as he turned the corner. Just up the road a little ways, Chizune was talking to herself and shielding flowers from the rain. He watched her for a little bit, admiring her kindness. She looked up at him and he quickly started walking to her as if trying to make it seem like he wasn't seriously just stalking her.
"Tsuna! What're you doing here?" She yelled as she recognized him running up.
He rubbed his rain-soaked head. "I was going to ask the same of you... I... um, needed help with some math homework and I didn't want you to have to walk all the way to my house..." Chizune giggled and Tsuna just looked at her with confusion.
"I was coming to visit you anyway! If you'd have called, I would have come over..." She realized how kind of... romantic the situation was and she flushed. "I-I mean, I was bored anyway...! A-and I've never met your mom!" She was stuttering now. She looked as if she was going to say something else when a bolt of lightning pierced the sky. She jolted, dropped to the ground and started shaking. Tsuna walked over to her and grabbed her shoulder.
"Hey, you alright?" He asked with concern. Chizune just nodded shakily, but as there was another flash she jumped and cowered into his jacket. Chizune tried to stand up, but she was so shaken that she had to lean on Tsuna. She quietly apologized to him, but Tsuna wouldn't let her. "Chizune, don't apologize for something that's not your fault! It's okay; lightning scares me a little too." He said, pulling his jacket over her. "Come on, I'll make you some hot chocolate at my house."
Chizune perked up. "Hot chocolate... That's the best stuff ever...!" The lightning seemed to stop for a little and as they walked to Tsuna's house, Chizune started talking about the terrible book she had to read. "Oh, that's the one you had to read?" Tsuna chuckled. "The boys have to read a biography on the life of a boxer..." They both thought of Ryohei and started laughing.
"Man... The boys get the cool books!" She pouted as they walked in the door. Tsuna shrugged and placed his coat on the little rack by the door. Chizune looked at the design on the rack and smiled. The edging looked like flames and was very detailed. Tsuna noticed her admiring it as she placed her coat on it.
"Heh... My dad made that a while ago." Chizune turned to gasp at him. "Really?!" She took off her green boots as she followed Tsuna to the kitchen. Tsuna's mom was cooking dinner and she turned with a welcoming smile.
"Oh? Who's this Tsu-kun?" She asked thinking that maybe her son had finally brought home a girlfriend. She didn't have expectations for her son, but she thought that Chizune was absolutely perfect. Tsuna blushed a little, knowing exactly what his mom was thinking. He went to correct her thoughts, but Chizune spoke first.
"I'm Chizune Miahara; I'm in Tsuna's class. It's nice to meet you Mrs. Sawada!" She introduced herself enthusiastically with a smile. Tsuna's mom smiled at her. "It's nice to meet you too, dear." She turned the stove down. "Would you like to stay for dinner?" She asked as she setting plates on the table.
"Um... I don't wanna intrude." Chizune indecisively mumbled. Tsuna smiled at her. "Its okay, Chizune. It'd be great to have you for dinner!" With that, Chizune totally caved.
"Alright, I'll stay. But let me help out later, okay?" Tsuna's mom was happy to have such a headstrong and helpful girl around the house. 'Maybe she'll come over more often...'
