Yay! It's here! Chapter 6! Yamamoto comes in again! I don't own Katekyo Hitman Reborn, Akira Amano does. But if I did... meheheh....
Chizune layed in bed, still wide awake. Her digital cat clock read 5:32 am. She wasn't able to get to sleep the previous night on account of her amazing ability to think into things too deeply. She sighed as she rolled over in bed. "It's Sunday... I should be sound asleep right now... Stupid Hibari, is he trying to make me loose sleep?!" She couldn't blame poor little Tsuna, so she chose the demon that started the whole thing.
Chizune's mother walked in the room at about seven and sat down on the bed next to her. "So honey, what's this boy like?" Chizune REALLY didn't want to have a girly talk with her mother, so she turned her face into her pillow and grunted. Her mother stared at her for a few seconds before sighing. "You're still upset with me, I see..." She said and left the room.
'Of course I'm upset, you just abandoned dad...' She thought sadly. 'Although... maybe I do need a girly talk, but with who?' She ran over the list of girls she could call 'close friends' but only came up with Kyoko. "Man... I must have more female friends than that..." There was Haru, but Chizune didn't want an extremely hyper mushy-gushy love chat. Her phone vibrated on the night stand next to her. The caller-id, as expected, was Yamamoto-kun.
Ever since her asked for her cell number, he started texting her 'Good Morning' on the weekends. Normally she was still sleeping and it went unnoticed until she woke up, but this time she replied right away. 'Morning to you too.' She texted back. Then it hit her. "Yamamoto-kun! I can talk to him!" She realized. Her texted back saying; 'You're up awfully early, how are you?' She smiled and texted; 'Well, I couldn't get much sleep last night... Can I meet up with you somewhere and talk?' She set the phone down and started getting dressed. She pulled a green polo over her head and grabbed the phone as it vibrated again. 'I'm sorry, and sure! How about at the park up the road from the school?' She had to think for a minute, but then remembered how to get there. 'Sure, see you there in a few minutes!' She replied and snapped the phone shut.
She ran past the park gates still munching down some toast she grabbed on her way out of the house. She spotted him sitting on a bench with two bats. "Yamamoto-kun! Sorry for making you come out here!" He stood up and patted her on the head. "It's fine! Why don't we go to the batting cages? It helps relieve pent up rage!" He said handing her a bat. Chizune blinked at him. "Um... my problem isn't anger-related... Sorry. We can still go though!" This time, Yamamoto blinked and then laughed. "I coulda sworn you'd gotten into a fight with Gokudera again, or something like that!" Chizune sighed. "I guess that would be the usual problem..."
When they got to the batting cages, Yamamoto threw her a helmet and asked what the issue was. Chizune swung the bat a couple of times. "Well... there's this guy I really like... well, I think I really like him. And that's the issue! I'm so confused!" She moaned, banging her head into the fence. Yamamoto smiled. "I see, kinda didn't expect you to come to me for this kind of thing though." He chuckled as he stood up on the plate and waited for a ball to shoot out at him.
"Well, you're a good friend and like the only person I can talk to about this!" She whined. As ball flew out at him and made a loud clang as it met with the bat and went flying against the net. "Really...? What about Tsuna?" He asked as her turned to her. She blushed and quickly looked down. He grinned at her. "I see, Tsuna is the crush, huh?" She shuffled around in her embarrassment. "You're too clever for your own good, Yamamoto-kun..." She said sulkily. Clang! Yamamoto hit another ball into the net. He couldn't help but think how ironic it was that just a few days ago; Tsuna had a very similar talk with him at school.
"Chizune, I think you should tell him your true feelings. Keeping it bottled up, even if it isn't a bad feeling, still isn't good for you." Chizune looked up at him with a big smile. "You really think so?" Yamamoto nodded, hitting another ball. Chizune grinned even bigger and blushed. "Alright! Now hit that ball and make your decisions final!" Yamamoto shouted as he pushed her up to the plate. "Yes! You're the best Yamamoto-kun!" She yelled back, getting her posture ready to hit the ball. It shot out faster than she expected and when she hit it, she fell backwards. "Holy crap! Yamamoto, is this the speed you were hitting at?!" She looked at him incredulously. Yamamoto laughed and helped her up. "Yeah, that's my normal speed. Sorry, I forgot to set it to normal again!"
As they both walked home, Chizune couldn't help but think of Gokudera's comment as she rubbed her sore wrists. "Heh... didn't this happen not to long ago?" Yamamoto looked back at her. "Huh?" She giggled. "I mean nearly getting killed by a baseball." He nodded and they both laughed. "Yeah, and they say history repeats itself... This time it just happened in just a month." He said stopping and reaching into his bag. He pulled a roll of bandages. "Here, you don't want those wrists to get swollen." He said as he started wrapping her arms with them. When he finished she looked down at her wrists and smirked. "Hey, this looks pretty cool! Like I got into a fight!" She laughed while punching the air.
Yamamoto dropped her off at her house and she ran into the kitchen in a very good mood. Her mother was still at work, so she decided to try making one of the star shaped cakes she ate at Tsuna's house. "I'll practice, so I can one day achieve my dream!" She sang as she danced around the kitchen.
After a few tries, she had eaten about 3 of the cakes that turned out bad and the 5th one was about to come out of the oven. The timer dinged and she ran to get the cake. This time it turned out almost perfect, it had retained its star shape and it didn't burn. "Yes! This is perfect! It just needs some frosting..." She looked around for what colors she had left, but there was only red and a little yellow. In her search for more frosting in the cupboard, she didn't notice her mother walk in and put a little piece of paper next to the cake. She noticed it as she walked back to the cake with some green frosting. It said; 'Your cake looks nice. You should give it to the boy you like. The fastest way to a boy's heart is through his stomach, after all.' She couldn't help but smile at how hard her mom was trying. "Hmm... maybe I will give it to Tsuna, when I ask him tomorrow..." She thought aloud and blushed. She decorated it with little flames around the border, like she remembered on the coat rack at his house. "I may not be al that great with baking cakes, but I love to decorate them!" She giggled as she finished.
(A/N: Well, Chizune will ask our dear little Tsuna in the next chapter... or will he ask her first? And what IS Yamamoto doing during his lunches? Is it practice? Or something else...? I love creating suspence! =P Thanks to all my readers and don't forget to review! It keeps me alive... Like air... and yaoi... xD Anyways, tah-tah for now! ^^ ~Teichi)
