(Alright, here it is! Long awaited! Chapter 8! I hink this is one of my better chapters, vocabulary-wise, but also kinda not. So, you can be the judge and leave me little helpful suggestions, if you want. I especially need more words to use instead of laugh, chuckle, and giggle... Anyways, if you have questions or suggestions, go ahead and pm me. Oh and I have to admit, this chapter is (not exactly but kinda) for dawn08, cuz she messaged me about this story and i was encouraged to write another chapter the same day. But, in whole, its for all my readers! Thanks you for always reading my little outlets of amusement. In this little chapter, I snuck in a little easter egg, more for my fun but I guess you can all take a crack at it. Here's a hint, it has to do with something Tsuna related! I know, not good hint and I doubt anyone'll notice. =P KHR belongs to Akira Amano and uh... enjoy the chap.! ^_^)
"Okay Shamal, I'm leaving her to you." Tsuna told the hitman-gone-nurse on his way out the door to the nurses office. Shamal reassured him that Chizune would be fine in his hands, which led Chizune to shiver.
'Yeah, leaving a 15 year old girl's well-being to Shamal is such a great idea..." Chizune thought sarcastically while laying on the bed. Shamal resumed his previous spot in his swivel chair.
"So... You couldn't do it, huh?" He asked in a mocking tone. Chizune glared at him. "Yeah, it must be easy for professional womanizers like you..." She grumbled. Shamal pulled a ciggerette and a lighter out of his pocket. "There's no real technique to it you know... Its not like a skill you can learn in a video game. Just tell him how you feel, or don't."
Chizune looked over at him, a tad shocked. "Wow... That was actually insightful..." She said, sitting up. Shamal laughed as he lit his ciggerette. "Did you expect anything less from me?" Chizune snorted at his arrogant comment. "Always... But I at least expect you not to smoke in a room meant for helping kids feel better." She said and grabbed the smoke out of his mouth, throwing it out the window.
Chizune turned her back to Shamal and the window, but quickly turned back when she heard a voice. "I really can't tolarate littering..." Hibari grumbled as he threw the ciggerette back into the room, into a trashcan. Chizune paused for a minute then turned and ran out of the nurses office, a terrified look plastered on her face. "Jeez kid, what'd you do to her...?" Shamal asked, suprised by her fast exit.
Chizune opened the door to her current class, breathing heavy. Everyone looked over at her and the teacher stopped writing on the chalkboard.
"Felling better Miahara-san?" The tall, brunette teacher asked. Chizune nodded, out of breath. "Well then, take your seat and open to page 27." She directed and continued writing on the board.
Chizune placed her bag on the end of her desk and sat down. Tsuna looked over, wanting to ask if she was really feeling better, but he was across the room from her. Chizune noted his expression and just smiled at him assuringly.
'Ugh, Shamal was right... I should just tell him! Even if he doesn't feel the same, at least he knows what I think of him!' Chizune thought to herself, staring out the window. She sighed, but no one heard as it was too noisy on account of people working in groups.
Chiune went to sigh again, but stopped as she noticed someone standing out by the front gates of the school. Chizune squinted and saw his purple-blue hair and, as he looked up at her, his heterochromic eyes. She gasped a little as an evil smirk played at his lips as he stared at her, but when she blinked, he was gone.
"--zune...? Chizune!" Tsuna's voice peirced the red-head trance, causing her to snap around. "G-gah! What?!" She shouted back. People got quiet and stared at her, but just started up their conversations again. Tsuna sweatdropped. "I was asking if you wanted to be in a group with me and Yamamoto." He said, smiling. Chizune took one last look out the window, saw nothing, and nodded to the future Vongola boss.
"Its so wierd without Gokudera around, huh?" She noted as she pulled up a chair to Tsuna's desk. Yamamoto walked over to Tsuna's desk as well. "Yeah, this is the only class you don't have with him... Anyway! Chizu-sensei, we're counting on you to help us make sense of this math!" The baseball player smiled his trademark grin at her. Chizune sighed with a chuckle. "Yeah, yeah..."
After class, Chizune mustered up all her courage as Tsuna was walking with her to lunch. "Uh... Um... Tsuna?" She asked, not entirely sure what to say. 'There's no technique to it...' Shamal's voice rang in her head. 'Gah! Fine!' She yelled back at it. Tsuna stopped and lokked at her. "Yeah?" Chizune blushed a little, his face was just too cute sometimes. "Would... Would you meet me after school!" She asked quickly, getting part one of it over with. Tsuna was taken aback a little by her question, but answered her anyway. "Uh, sure. Over by the boxing club building as usual?" Chizune smiled, not feeling as nervous. "Yeah. That works."
Chizune sat, or rather floated around in her following class thinking of two things, Tsuna and the boy she saw outside. 'Now, I know i'm not going crazy... I eat regularly, I sleep enough, and i'm not on medication. Oh... But what was that saying...? "Love makes you do crazy things"... or something... I wonder if that could also mean love makes you see crazy things...?' She sighed, which led to her sinking in the water. Gokudera pulled her up and rolled his eyes.
"Idiot... You gotta keep swimming or you'll sink because of all of that fat..." He smirked, thinking he had gotten the upper hand. "What, are you failing anatomy too? Fat floats, retard..." She shot back, pulling herself out of the water. "You think you're so damn smart!" He yelled, climbing out as well.
A rolled up bunch of paper hit the back of Gokudera's head before he could yell more. The swim teacher, Narumi-sensei, was standing behind him. "Well, she is passing all her classes, including this one. But, what about you?" She glared down at him. Chizune smirked. "Yeah Gokudera! What are you getting in this class?" Chizune asked in a teasing tone. Gokudera growled. "Are all women out to get me...?" He mumbled under his breath and dove back into the pool.
Narumi-sensei stood as tall as 5' 9", pretty tall for a woman, especially when she stood next to small little Chizune.
"Thanks Narumi-sensei. I didn't feel like arguing with him..." Chizune sighed for the billionth time that day. "Aw, whats wrong? Boy troubles?" Narumi asked, coming pretty close. "I keep meaning to ask, are you like a psychic... or something?" The red-head asked with a chuckle.
(A/N: Haha, enter Mukuro! I didn't know if I really wanted him in the story, but I knew I had to have him a little. If i make up my mind to do a little arc about him, then yeah... But if I don't really want to, then he will just continue to psyche Chizune out like he did here. Oh and about the little Tsuna thing I snuck in... Did anyone notice? I'll tells ya now! Note the page that Chizune's teacher has her turn to! Page 27! =D It's Tsuna's page! ^_^ I dunno, i was bored. =P I'll try to do more fun little cute things like that in future chapters, so i'll warn in advance. =P Well, arrivederci~!)
