Well, lookie here! I updated again finally! Sorry for everyone who was waiting! I've been so busy lately and grounded... But, I just had the chance to finish up this chapter finally and I even have names for all the chapters! I'll be changing those soon~ This one was problematic, I wrote the first half, didn't touch it for like a month or so, and then just now finished it, so if there are any irregularities, please tell me! As always I don't own KHR, Akira Amano does~ (And I loves her for it!)


Tsuna paced around in his room. "How am I supposed to spend a Saturday by myself?" He wondered aloud. Normally, Chizune was over or Reborn was training him. This happened to be one of those days when nothing was going on.

His mom walked in the door as he threw himself backwards onto his bed.

"Tsu-kun, is Chizune-chan coming over again?" She asked, a little confused by the absence of lively-ness in the house.

"Nope... But I don't wanna bother her, she's come over every weekend this month. I'm sure she wants time by herself sometimes." He said, smiling a little. "But I am surprised how lonely it gets without her at times..." He mumbled.

His mother smiled. "But, that's love Tsu-kun!" She said, waving as she headed back out the door. Tsuna blushed a little. 'Love huh...?' He thought, picking up his cell phone. He had a text on it from earlier that morning.

'Morning Tsuna-kun~ Sorry I'm not hanging with ya today, but I was thinking of cleaning the house.' Is what it said. Tsuna laughed a little, imagining Chizune with a small broom and dustpan, sweeping and sweeping, trying to get the trash in it, until she finally backed up against the wall. He chuckled at the look on her face as she jumped.

He layed on his bed, thinking about her more until he blushed. "Mom is so right. I think about her all the time... That's love..." He mumbled, smiling warmly. He picked the phone back up and decided to text back.

'Hope the cleaning is going well. I kinda wanted to take you out somewhere tomorrow. Well, if you aren't busy that is.' He pressed send and flipped it closed. "Now to think of somewhere..." He sighed, running a list of all the nice places in town through his head.


Chizune stared intensely at the boy still in front of her.

"So... Are you done analyzing my molecular structure, yet?" He asked jokingly. "Or would you like to see more?" He smirked, starting to take off his jacket.

"NO! Don't!" She shouted. "I guess I'm still kinda stuck at 'How did you get in without my mom noticing?' Ya know?" She continued, hoping she wasn't like tied up in the closet or something.

"Oh um, I suppose I should give you this." He said, grabbing a balled up sticky-note from his pocket. "It said she had gone out of town for more book research..." He said, reassuring the red-head that he wasn't a killer.

"I guess that's not a real shocker..." She mumbled. "Okay, past that question... Who the hell are you?" She asked, plopping down on the chair. Mukuro leaned against the wall, thinking. "Hmm... you can't know too much, but I guess I can tell you a little. Or maybe I'll show you... No... You can't see that either." He debated with himself a little bit.

"Okay well, you really can't know much about me. Its confidential~" He sung out the last part, causing Chizune to glare at him again. "Okay, then you just got put back onto the psycho list..." She mumbled. "Could you at least tell me why you're here?" She tried again.

"Nope." He replied with a smile.

"Um... Do you have any relatives in the area?"

"I don't know if I even have a family."

"Okay, okay... Maybe you are my imagination. But, hell if I'm housing you. My mom would freak if she knew some psycho was staying here!" Chizune whisper-shouted, bumping her head on her desk. There was the sound of a door opening downstairs and she shot up.

"Chizune, I'm home!" Her mom shouted from downstairs.

"Crap!" She grabbed her head, frantically trying to come up with some sort of plan if her mom came upstairs. She turned to Mukuro. "You. Find somewhere to hide. NOW." She said, glaring. Mukuro smirked, grabbing her shoulder.

"Now, I have a better idea. Why don't you go to sleep and don't worry about it." He said, staring her straight in the eyes.

"Sleep? How can I just sleep?" She said, a little histerical at first, but then started getting drowsy. "I can't... just sleep..." She mumbled, passing out. Mukuro caught her and placed her on her bed. "Goodnight, Chizune-chan..." He whispered, disappearing.


Tsuna awoke to the sweet smell of pancakes. He sat up yawning, and remembered that he was supposed to decide where to take Chizune.

"Oh! That's it! Maybe we can go to the outdoor pool, just down the road!" He shouted, surprised that he was able to come up with something so easily in the morning. Then his mother walked in still in her apron.

"Tsu-kun, breakfast is ready." She said. "I see you decided where to take her. Why don't you go get dessert at the cafe afterwards."

"Oh thats a good idea! Thanks mom, I'll be down in a little bit!" He smiled, pulling the covers off as he tried to remember where his swim trunks were.


Chizune awoke to something messing with her hair.

"Ugh... Cocoa... I'm sleeping, go away..." She grumbled out, swatting at what she thought was her cat. A chuckle made her look up sharply.

"Now, don't sleep in too late. You're meeting up with Vongola, no?" Mukuro said, flicking one of her stray hairs. She groaned at the boy, still at her house. Still not telling her anything. "Why are y- Oh my god! You're right!" She yelled, jumping out of bed. "I have to wear something other than the usual..." She muttered, starting to run things through her head.

Then it hit her. She turned back towards Mukuro. "What... Did you call Tsuna...?" She asked, swallowing. No one knew Tsuna by that except for those associated with the mafia. "Who... Are you really?" She asked sternly, glaring at him.

"Oops... Seemed I stumbled up. I'll tell you one thing though. There are some who don't approve of such a useless boss." He said, his red eye flashing. Chizune jumped backwards away from him, trying to remember where she placed her gun. The illusionist chuckled and produced it from his pocket. "Looking for this?" He asked, waving it around teasingly.

"Chizune, honey! Tsu-kun's here to pick you up!" Her mother suddenly called from downstairs. The red-head turned pale. 'If this guy is after Tsuna... No! There's no way I'll let him anywhere near this guy!' She thought, quickly charging at Mukuro.

"Well... This is a bit inconvenient, I can't be seen just yet." Mukuro mumbled and sighed, blocking Chizune's attack. She was caught off guard as he slammed his trident into her side, knocking the wind out of her. She fell to the ground and glared up at him weakly as he eyes locked onto hers. She still hadn't figured it out, but was slowly catching onto his power as she slipped into unconsciousness.


Tsuna opened the door to her room, hoping she wasn't still sleeping. He gasped as he saw her lying on the ground passed out. Laying on her was her gun with a note attached to it that said; 'She won't be the last, Vongola.'

Chizune started stirring and soon leaned up, groaning and rubbing her side. Tsuna quickly ran over to her, helping her up. "Chizune, what happened? Who did this?" He asked frantically. Reborn popped in through the window and snatched the note from the gun.

"Ts-Tsuna-kun... Ugh, I... I can't remember... He said his name, but I just can't remember..." She mumbled. Reborn was still studying the note when he spoke up.

"Tsuna, you might not want her mother to see her like this. After all, it seems it's mafia related." He explained. Chizune sat down on her bed, sighing. "I'm so sorry, Tsuna. I tried to stop him, I really did..." Tsuna hugged her, feeling a tad upset and sorry for her.

"No, it's my fault. But... please be more careful. I... I don't want you to get hurt!" He pleaded. The red-head chuckled a little. "Tsuna-kun, I love you too much not to do anything." She smiled at him. "And it's my job, ya know." She finished, standing up looking stronger than before. She picked up her gun from the floor and stared at it intensely for a moment.

"I won't let him harm you or anyone else. He just made this personal..."
