A/N: Sorry for the lateness, this week had been hectic for me. Damn, it's finals already. And the temperature is not helping either, I feel like dying every single day from heatstroke. Haha, but this is chapter six. Sorry for the grammatical errors, I tried so much not to mess things up, so please bear with me. Haha, this is not my native language, so I'm not really used to it, just recently. Before anyone complains to this chapter, I'll continue it the next. The next after this will be their trip, so bear with me. Can I at least have suggestions on how I can manage the story line? Thanks! Well then, enjoy. ~ :D
Chapter 6: Pineapple Meets Tuna Meets Marshmallow
Tsuna places his friends to the sofa where Lampo decided to sleep because his so-called senpais were kicked out yesterday by the annoyed brunet. He was lucky that he didn't deal with the wrath of the brunet yesterday, but he is now fidgeting because of the aura surrounding the small petite animal looking like rabbit slash puppy but has a fierce attitude inside that you don't want to deal with if you have death wish written on your face.
"Lampo-kun, stop staring and move," Lampo stumbled upon the cold tone that was so much different from yesterday. He swears he can feel his legs swerving and wanted to run in fear, but he restrained himself and walks over to the other side to let the brunet's friends to rest in the sofa comfortably. He felt this nagging feeling inside his head while looking at the brunet's worried eyes, tears running down from its side, wait… tears? Lampo panics inwardly, groans, not knowing what to do.
The brunet just ignores Lampo and goes to the kitchen. He knows where the first aid kits are because bullies never fail to amuse him every time so he let them beat him up again and again. Tsuna's used to it due to the fact that he received those when he was a kid, and transferred because of that too. Bullies always goes up to him before the bell rings, lunch breaks, after schools, and beat him up, not knowing that he can fight back if he wanted to. Well, it suddenly stops when he became friends with Gokudera and Yamamoto. Tsuna never like violence, he never did. But this time, enraged feelings went up to his veins and snapped him to the reality that his friends almost died because of a stupid argument. 'Darn it, those bastards will never get away from this.'
"Kaa-san, can you call the cleaners in this village? I think we need to clean up our front yard, some pests were loitering, and Kaa-san, our teacher announced that we're having a field trip, do you want me to go?" Tsuna didn't bother to hear his mother's response, which was rude, and goes to the sofa where his friends are lying unconscious. Tsuna is focus on fixing up his friends not bothering to look up at his worried mother's face. It was not a big deal for him if he will ever get reported to the police or something, it was a stupid fight, and they are teenagers. He didn't kill anyone in the first place, which he would like to thank himself. He wanted to kill those bastards outside, but thinking of living his loving mother is something he cannot do.
He knew to himself that his mom knows something about the disappearance of his dad, but he never dared to ask her. Iemitsu Sawada is one of the most complicated person, utterly mysterious in his life, and his dad is just unpredictable. He left them, yes. He knew that part. He left for almost two years now, and wonders what made him do so. His father and he are not really that close and all, and Tsuna swears that he would never be, his mom is the only one he needs, well considering how he got attached to Giotto and his friends, probably he might be able to experience something fun, and something unpredictable that will make him jumps in excitement.
Tsuna looks at his friends who are lying unconscious in their sofa, he can see how Lampo is breathing inside and out, and now that he got a better look of the situation, he is crying to himself. He never cries, and he never will. But this feeling that reaching up his body, he can't control it. His hands are trembling, and he wants to just punch the table in the living room, but he felt hands around his waist. He looks up to see a blushing Lampo, but has his determined eyes locks on him. Tsuna wipes his tears, and smiled softly at Lampo.
"Ne, Lampo-kun, were you worried about me?" Tsuna asks in a playful tone, still fixing up his friends. He's not really minding the hug, and the fact that he's late for school. The boring lectures are not really appealing to him, and Nezu-sensei's senseless argues with him, which is by the way, one-sided are not really that fun. In fact, it's annoying and a bummer.
"W-wha, Ore-sama never worries on someone!" Lampo retort, though his face is glowing red, which made Tsuna laugh. It was rare for him to laugh and definitely to cry.
"Haha, okay then,"
"Senpais' and I are going to your school,"
"You mean visit?"
"Na-uh, we're studying there for the moment," Tsuna almost tempted to eat the cotton that has alcohol in it, purposely for his wounded friends. He looks hesitantly at Lampo who is still hugging him from the back while resting his head on his hair, which made him tired because he can't really move.
"Ah, so when do you start?" Tsuna just casually asks, inwardly cursing and mumbling some ritual prayers, 'what is wrong with these Italians, keep coming to my hometown, damn it.'
"Today,"
"What the-?!" Tsuna asks at the top his lungs that made his friends cringed in annoyance of waking them up, all scratched up. Gokudera looks at his surroundings, and Yamamoto did the same. They both saw a brunet holding slightly wet cotton in his hand, and another head on his gravity defying hair. They narrowed their eyes in confusion before remembering what had happened today.
"J-jyuudaime/T-tsuna," Tsuna's head turns slightly to face to his friends, and he didn't notice that tears are falling from his eyes again, and this made Gokudera and Yamamoto sighed inwardly in delight. Although it's not the right feeling they were supposed to feel, but seeing that the brunet's has different emotions rather than just the neutral ones, made them want to jump in happiness. Their feelings of happiness were shattered when they see their friend quivering, and had his bangs covering his eyes. Lampo doesn't know what to do, so he quickly let go of the brunet and goes to the silveret-haired, and the man with black hair side.
"J-jyuudaime/T-tsuna?" They don't know what to do, so they just stare at the brunet in front of them, eyes are in pain seeing their friend crying for their sake. It's unbearable, and they can't take it anymore. Lampo stops them before they even jump to the brunet and hug him. Lampo signals that he is talking on the phone. He goes farther so the brunet wouldn't hear him. The phone on the other side rings,
"Hello," a muffled voice answered.
"Giotto-senpai!"
"What?
"Tsuna-san…"
"What happened?!"
"Baka! Stop wagging your tail like a lost puppy! How will you know if you keep walking back and forth?!" Lampo heard the voice from the other line. He sighed, this is taking so long.
"Tsuna-san is crying, his two idiot friends can't do anything," and suddenly the line is cut off. He sighed wondering how he became friends with those barbaric senpais of his; Giotto was the only normal in their group. He's admitting that he's not one.
Giotto and the others decided to go a little round trip to the café. They are walking in silence. Alaude didn't mind, but still annoyed to his brother and curious about the small animal that supposedly brother of his idiotic friend. Alaude requested to his brother to enroll his friends and him to their school, much annoyance to his bloodthirsty brother. He doesn't want to do it, but his friends' puppy faces were all annoying and creepy to the point where he wished he wouldn't get nightmares later on. His barbaric brother, or rather say twin, is the head of the Disciplinary Committee and has the reputation so his idiotic friends relied on him. He doesn't even know why the hell they had to do that, since they were literally sent there, not like he wanted to, and made them go where Giotto is.
"Welcome to BitterSweet Café, sir." The lady in white and black dress smiles at the seven astounding young people before her eyes, 'Ah, so much for good breakfast.'
"Table for seven, miss," G growled, he doesn't like girls lingering over him, it creeps him out. The girl just nodded, still looking at them dreamily and led them to a secluded table. It looks suspicious because no one is beyond their sight, but ignores it and look at their menu,
"What do you like, sirs?" The lady in white and black dress asks seductively which made them annoyed for some reason, and they just wanted to hurt the girl. Suddenly they realize that the girl has brown hair, caramel eyes, and a slight curve on its body. An image of Tsuna in dress suddenly appeared on their minds, and it was a horrifying dream because it was really ferocious. Giotto coughed, and the others did the same having tint blushes on their cheeks even Alaude on the side has a slight tint pink on his cheeks. They all thought that if Tsuna ever finds out what they were thinking just a while ago, a death wish would be suited and a plan on ordering their coffin along the way.
"A-ah, one mocha frappuccino please," Cozart as always first to recover,
"Same thing," they all said in unison, not bothering what the hell Cozart ordered. The lady in dress nods, still mesmerizes by the seven dazzling people in front of her, and makes her way to the back of the counter.
"That lady is creepy," Daemon stated after he noted that the girl left,
"Creepier than you," G added, Daemon ignored him still eyeing on the lady in white and black dress.
"Scarier than paranormal activity," Cozart added,
"I need a fight with that girl to the extreme!" Knuckle added,
"Ahaha, that girl looks like Tsuna-san," Asari added,
"She is nothing like my Tsu-chan!" Giotto retorted, his Tsu-chan is way different from that girl. The girl is freaking him out. The girl looks like drooling all over them, and he was about to grab a bucket or a bin nearby if the girl suddenly drool or something to quickly fill it with the girl's drool which he imagines, really nasty and gross.
"My Tsu-chan?" They all ask, raising their brows. Alaude just stares at his friend, literally disgusted.
"W-well, haha. Hehe?" Before Giotto could reply, the lady in white and black dress came in bringing their coffees. It's a restaurant, not just a café shop, so serving them is not really strange.
"Thanks," Cozart nod and signals the girl to go away. The lady finds it rude, but she is still in dazed so she just nodded in return. They all sigh, even Alaude, he doesn't have his eyes for the girls who will drop dead just to get a hand on their shirts.
"Phew," Giotto is drinking his coffee, when G asks,
"You're having field trip?"
"Yeah, how did you know that?"
"Well we are now part of the student council together with my brother, you, G's brother, and Cozart's, all of us are now part of the student council as a condition on making our way registered at the school fast according to Alaude's brother," Asari said,
"Wait, how did you manage to get Yamamoto and Gokudera to join?"
"Apparently Yamamoto is already part of it because of his baseball 'friends' and Gokudera was forced to join because of his brother," Cozart informed the blond,
"Where are Knuckle's brother and sister?"
"Sasagawa Ryohei is the Captain of the Boxing Club so he is not needed, and Sasagawa Kyoko is in Cheering Squad together with her friends so her schedule is tight," G added,
"And by the way omnivore, you and the small animal were forced to join too, requested from my brother," Alaude added,
"Who's a small animal, and wait. Did you just say what I think you said?" Alaude just nodded,
"Damn it Alaude! It's you guys' problem, why drag me and my Tsu-chan to your worlds?!" His Tsu-chan is definitely in danger.
"What the hell was that Giotto?!" G huff, not liking the 'my' part. The others did the same, wanting to strangle the blond to death for claiming Tsuna as his.
"Hn," and Alaude didn't say anything after that. Giotto regained his composure and asks Daemon instead.
"So where are your brother and sister, Daemon?" Giotto asks the melon-head, or pineapple? Ah forget it, the siblings had all their crowns back in the head so it's a mystery.
"They are studying in Kokuyo High, apparently Mukuro is the student body president and Chrome is his secretary,"
"Why didn't you go to their school then?" Giotto asks, or rather say pleaded,
"It's more fun in your school, considering that these barbaric beasts are there, you and your Tsu-chan are there, and especially, Reborn is there,"
"Yeah, that concerns me too, why is Reborn here?" Asari asks,
"To extremely enjoy life to the extreme!" Knuckle said,
"Baka!" G snorted at his friend's stupidity,
"What did you say?!" Knuckle shouted readying his fists,
"Enough!" Giotto firmly said, still sipping at his coffee, which by the way he didn't like and feel stupid on why he ordered the same thing as Cozart.
"That carnivore must be up to something," they all look up to Alaude.
"I received a call from that person this morning," Giotto said, his friends all looking up to him.
"What did he say?"
"They confirmed that the said person is in Namimori, and all the reinforcements scattered all over Japan were sent yesterday back in Italy, leaving us the job together with Reborn and the Varia,"
"The Varia?!"
"Is that person really important? I mean, Varia is elite and Reborn is the World's Greatest," Cozart said,
"Yes, that person is the only heir left since the original heir refused,"
"I wonder how we will find a person who we only know the name, and we're not even sure if that's his real name or not," Asari added,
"This is hard to the extreme," Knuckle said,
"Well there's new information that came to them yesterday,"
"What is it then?" Daemon getting impatient for the long conversation,
"A flame,"
"What do you mean?"
"A flame shaped tattoo is located on that person's side waist,"
"No wonder he's the heir, that person has that too,"
"How the hell did they even got that," G asks sipping on his disgusting coffee,
"Seriously Cozart, your taste in coffee is downgraded," G.
"It wasn't my fault that you all ordered the same thing as I did," before G could reply, Giotto's phone rang. The ring was a voice of someone, saying good morning nii-chan. They all looked at Giotto in disgust, it was his supposedly brother, for pete sake!
"What? What happened?!" were all the words they heard from the blond before he started freaking out, G who got annoyed by his friend, whacks Giotto in the head, and told him to calm down, then after hearing what the other wanted to say. The atmosphere around them miraculously drops down below zero, and a frantic blond shut his phone, nearly breaking from the impact.
"Tsuna is crying," Giotto simply said and walks away from the store living his coffee behind but did not forget to place his money, and the others did the same. The lady in white and black dress scoffed, she won't see her prince charmings' again. The atmosphere surrounding the seven drop dead gorgeous young lads made the ladies squeal in delight and hunger, while the guys felt envious. The seven didn't care.
Tsuna is still crying silently, covering his eyes with his long bangs. The three are freaking out, not knowing what to do. They look everywhere for Nana, Tsuna's mom, but Nana is busy talking to the phone asking for cleaners, not knowing what situation they are in. They were about to give up, when the front door suddenly open, and reveals their brothers. Yamamoto was surprised to see his brother. He wasn't informed that he was going back.
Tsuna didn't care who the people in their house are. He doesn't know what he is feeling right now, and all he could do is to cover his eyes with his bangs. He's not used to this feeling, a feeling of guilt. He feels guilty because his friends are all scratched up because of his uncaring attitude to the world. He feels bad for not saving his friends on time. He feels miserable, and crying is the only thing he can do right now, even if he's not used to showing his weakness to others.
"Tsu-chan," Giotto goes to his brother's side, and hugs him. He doesn't know how to calm the brunet down, his brother never showed weakness to him. Yes, he talks about it, but crying in front of him, he's not used to it. Tsuna just ignores his brother, and still lowers his head. The others just watch, not really liking the aura surrounding the brunet. Negative. Alaude snaps, and goes to the small animal.
Tsuna can still feel his brother's hands wrap around his waist, and the stares that he receives. He lowers his head more, but one cold large hand raises his head up, and flicks his forehead with his fingers. He looks at the man before him in confusion, and tilted his head. The man just goes near his face, and whispers in his ears. After hearing what the man has to say; he literally falls down the edge of the sofa while holding his stomach, not able to obtain his laughter. And dragging his brother down too.
"H-hahahahaah! That was epic! Hahahaha!" The brunet kept laughing while his face is resting on Giotto's chest, he doesn't really mind though.
The other occupants in the living room stared at the person who approached the brunet while ago, and now the crying brunet is laughing his heart out while leaning at Giotto's chest, much to their annoyance, especially the one who made him laugh.
It was Alaude who approached the small animal and flick its forehead, and told him the most embarrassing thing he would never know he stored in his animalistic vocabulary. He doesn't have a choice but to do that, since he couldn't take seeing the small animal yet fierce looks fragile, crying, and weak. Small animals don't die without a fight, and he wants that reputation to stay as because he sees his friend's brother as the leader of the herd of the small animals population in the jungle. Hibari Alaude and Hibari Kyoya's minds are far too wild compared to other people. Their thoughts to other people as herbivores and them as carnivores, the one who rules the jungle, until omnivores came and disrupt their supposedly peace. Alaude jerks up the small animal away from his supposedly obsessive brother, who's turning tomato red right now, which the small animal is completely oblivious about.
"Haha! Alaude-san, that was nice. I had a good crack. Thank you," Tsuna bows, it was his first time talking to someone so formally with emotions written on his face. The people in the room together with his mom stand in awe because of the beaming light coming from the brunet's teeth. It's literally all white.
Alaude not expecting the gratitude he received just replied with a simple "hn" and then walks away, crossing his fingers along the way. The thoughts he is now currently making with the certain small animal will make you spit out all the food that you just ate from a fancy restaurant.
"Ne, Tsuna-san, what did Alaude tell you?" Asari recovering from the shock that Alaude made someone laugh, Alaude and his brother always make people run in haste afraid of embarrassing their soul lives because of the urge pissing on their pants in front of the scariest people in this human world.
"Ah that," Tsuna smiled sheepishly, it was not that funny, but seeing the man's straight face while saying those words were something he cannot stop himself. The people in the room stared at him intensely, even his brother who was supposedly lying on the floor daydreaming about something he couldn't imagine someone drooling over it is now looking at him as if he is someone who was accused of raping a rabbit and now being judge in the sign of law.
"W-well, it wasn't that funny," Tsuna smiled sheepishly around the room, he couldn't help himself but sweat drop because the occupants in the room makes him feel like they were about to eat him because of the cliffhanging, it wasn't his fault to begin with. It was Alaude-san's fault which reminded him of someone he recently knew. He looks at Alaude who's sipping his tea at the side, not caring around his world, and reading newspaper casually, which is odd since teenagers don't really do that, but preferred to just shut himself up and looks at the expectant audience.
"W-well, he asked me something which made me confused for a moment, then he answered his own question, and you kind of figured out what happened,"
"Well, the fact that you still had your grin on your face, it means that the skylark said something hilarious," Daemon stated, still shocked at the thought of the skylark making someone laugh. It feels like the cows in the farm fly using its butt.
"Haha, that. He asked me why Peter Pan always in flight," Tsuna can't breathe remembering the answer and the stoic face of Alaude-san. It's a mix emotion.
"Then?" G, getting impatient. He wanted to throw up thinking that his steel friend made someone laugh, and the fact that even his friend who supposedly is the brunet's brother cannot stop the brunet's cries, makes him want to jump off Mount Fuji and erased his existence from the world.
"Jyuudaime?" Tsuna turns his heels to his wounded friend, and releases a negative aura again making the others wanting to kill the silveret for reminding Tsuna his drastic look after the good laugh he just had. Gokudera wanted to bang his head on the floor, but the feet of his precious jyuudaime's brother is blocking his way which made him angry even more because someone is interrupting his sulking. Yamamoto looks warily at his friend, knowing what is running through the silveret's mind, it wasn't hard to guess since he can see a wagging tail from its back and sulking eyes. It can't be helped, seeing Tsuna in this state because of them made him wanted to cut something, like a bamboo person with blood and everything.
"Tsu-kun! The cops are here!" Nana suddenly announces. The people in the room stood in horror even Alaude who was safely drinking his tea without a single care in the world. Daemon, Knuckle, Lampo, Gokudera, Yamomoto, Cozart, G, Giotto, and Alaude are standing in haste not knowing what to do if the brunet is held captive. Even the skylark is panicking inwardly, even though he knew to himself that the small animal won't be held captive because of the minority law.
"I'll go welcome them then, Lampo-kun, take care of Yamamoto and Gokudera for me. And you lots, there are food in the kitchen. I'm surprised you are all here by the way, and Kaa-san stop with the haste, I'm going to be all right. Nii-chan, you better stand up of that floor, you're becoming a lot more like our floor than your usual handsome face, oops did I just say that? So yeah, bye," Tsuna rushes out to the front door meeting with the cops. He's not really afraid of being held captive at least that would be fun. He's not an idiot or a masochist; he just wanted to have a positive attitude toward everything right now because being held in prison means being away from his friends. It's not fun.
The people in the room look at the brunet leaving from their sight. Seven of Giotto's friends are wondering to themselves what made them so attached to the brunet whom they had just met, and whom who just kicked them out, as in literally kicked them out. With their butts and limbs still aching from yesterday's predicament of Knuckle's shouting to the extreme that interrupted the brunet from watching his anime, and now wondering what made them had thoughts of dressing Tsuna as their model made in their perverted minds, which for the fact that didn't even know they have that side. Giotto is sulking on the corner, looking like a lost turtle from the sea, and had his house burned from something he doesn't want to know, while Gokudera is in reality banging his head from the nearby wall, and Yamamoto trying not to do the same. Nana is just giggling from the sight, congratulating his Tsu-kun from earning eccentric friends starting from his supposedly son, Giotto.
Tsuna approaching the cops from his front yard, and puts on his cold expression seeing the bloodied bodies are still loitering and littering at his front yard. The yard where his mom always had a hard time cleaning, then this lot just barged in and carelessly spread their blood all over it. It's unforgivable, at least to Tsuna's logic. He still remembers his friends almost died because of these morons who just wanted to have a good fight but too afraid to be beaten into pulp so they brought almost one section of a high school class.
"Hello, my name is Daiichirou Hiro, may I ask what happened here?" a vein twitch on Tsuna's forehead hearing the familiar name, Daiichirou, but ignored since he's not that kind of a man. Tsuna looks at the man who gaped in fear, suddenly losing Tsuna's tiny respect for the policemen sending a wimp like this one in front of him.
"These lots attacks my friends,"
"So how did they end up almost half dead?" Tsuna just stared at the dumb cop; seriously can't he just fix the puzzle himself instead of wasting his police car wang wang his siren all over his house? It's obvious enough that he was the one who beat them up since he clearly declared to this stupid looking cop, excuse for the criticism, he's nothing like that but looking at the bloodied bodies made him twitch nonstop, and an aura of killing them appeared again, though it was only running through his mind.
"Listen here, Keibu-san [1], I was the one who beat them up, it's not my problem if they're half dead or not, I didn't kill them that's a fact. Can't you just fix the puzzle yourself? Your siren loosen the peace of this village, just saying," Tsuna uses his tone as a matter of fact, stating how dumb the cop in front of him.
"A-ah, e-eto. Ah, what's your name?"
"What the hell? Okay, that's it. If you'll reprimand me or make me do something like community service, it's fine. Just to make something clear here, keibu-san, I wasn't the one who initiated the fight. Those lots were the cowardly ones who came barging into my front yard which my mom had always taken care of, then these people just pests around and beat my friends up almost dying if I didn't come. It's not really nice reprimanding someone who just protected his friends from ending up dead, don't you think? And excuse me sir, asking me my name, what the hell? Can't you see that Sawada is enlarge resting upon your gaze, and the fact that you called my mom asking if I'm here, then coming all the way here not knowing what's my name? Are you kidding me? Not to be rude, keibu-san, but this is got to be something like a joke. I'm sure that I'm at fault for this incident too, but reprimanding me, are you serious? I'm a minor, and please, act like a policeman. I'm starting to look down on people who served as the law,"
"E-eto, s-sorry Sawada-san. We won't make any serious decision about over this, and with that, farewell!" the cop just hop on his police car and drove away. Tsuna felt guilty for disrespecting the old man, but come on. Who wouldn't be irritated by that? Tsuna just shrugs it off, and looks at his watch. He is freaking late for class!
The people in the living room are still sulking, Gokudera and Yamamoto literally bang their heads on the nearby wall, Yamamoto didn't have enough strong will not to copy what the silveret was doing a while ago. Thinking that his first real friend hands in cuff and separating them from their world by metal bars in between made him sulk for the first time in front of everyone.
Tsuna hurriedly walks inside his house, and searches for his bag. He looks at his wounded friends who are banging their heads on the nearby innocent wall gave a sheepish laugh, and tap their shoulders.
"Ne, don't want to be late now, do we?" Tsuna just nodded to his mom, and practically drags his friends outside the door and run like death to reach their school's front gate.
"G-giotto, what just happened?" Asari asks, not sure what is happening.
"Apparently my Tsu-chan scared the shit out of the cop, and made him run away in fear. The gang who were littering at his front yard is now being swept away by the village cleaners. That's pretty much it, and by the way, I just wanted to warn you on how my Tsu-chan hates attention, and making him part of the student council, I just don't know what will happen," with that Giotto places his bag on his shoulders, and run as fast as he can to catch up to his Tsu-chan not wanting those two beasts to stains his Tsu-chan's innocent mind.
"I still hate the fact that he calls the chibi as my," G thought outloud,
"Who's a chibi?" Cozart asks,
"That idiot's brother,"
"Why a chibi? He's nearly same as Giotto's age," Daemon commented,
"Well he looks like one,"
"I agree to the extreme!"
"Herbivores, if you are to be more later than this, I will all cuff you to death!" the people in the living room nodded at Nana, and made their way to the school followed by a bloodthirsty blond.
They all caught up to Tsuna's group, and now they are all walking in group, much annoyance to Alaude but shrugs it off since he is now seeing a cheerful face from the small animal.
"Chibi, what did Alaude tell you?" G asks, earning stares from his place because of him calling Tsuna a chibi.
"Why are you calling my Tsu-chan a chibi?" Giotto snarled,
"He looks like a kid, alright. What's with you claiming him as yours anyway?" G retorts,
"Maa, maa. Calm down, you two," Asari and Yamamoto said in unison, earning a melodic laugh from the brunet.
"Alaude asks me why Peter Pan is always in flight, then he answered that he Neverlands," Tsuna told them proudly grinning on his face. The others deadpanned hearing the corniest joke they had ever heard, they all stole a glance at the skylark who is silently chirping at his achievement.
"Leaving that, Tsu-chan you're now a member of the student council," Tsuna just gave his nii-chan a what-the-hell-are-you-talking-about look. They are in the front of the school gates. A prefect walks over their way, preparing his tonfas, but rushing to the brunet instead.
"Ara, being bold now, are we?" Tsuna doesn't know where he got the boldness to mock the prefect, even though he knew to himself that they are equal in strength, the prefect would never allow someone top him, especially him.
"Same as you, herbivore," Hibari raises his tonfa and tries aiming at the brunet's left cheek, but utterly failed. The people around them don't know what to do. They can fight back, of course, but seeing the boldness of Tsuna that they haven't seen before made them stood in their feet and watch in awe. Even Gokudera and Yamamoto who have seen those eyes filled with amusement before can't help themselves but stood in awe.
"Giotto, shouldn't we do something?" Asari asks, although he doesn't want to do something,
"Ore-sama thinks so too,"
"I've never seen my Tsu-chan that amazed before so shut up and watch," Giotto still eyeing at how his brother's graze moves make him feel his stomach turns upside down.
"Creep,"
"Pedophile,"
"Pervert,"
"Moron,"
"Extremely unacceptable,"
"Fetish,"
"I get it!" Giotto slammed himself inwardly and goes up to his Tsu-chan who is now eyeing at the prefect with amusement, Giotto felt irritated at the brunet's attitude towards the prefect, so he hugs Tsuna from behind, stopping the prefect from attacking but you can clearly see the veins popping at his head.
Tsuna just returned the hug, and held his brother's hand. Tsuna bows to the prefect with satisfied smile, and goes up to his friends, well Giotto's friends. Irate looks from Giotto's friends because of the affection that the brunet is giving to his brother. I want those hugs too.
"Ne, Cozart-san, is Enma your brother or your son?" Tsuna asks innocently, the other people laugh their asses off.
"Why did you think that way, Tsu-kun?" earning glares from his friends, he doesn't care anyway.
"Enma-kun's height is too small for his age," the other sweat drop at this. First Tsuna didn't care that Cozart just called him 'Tsu-kun' for pete sake, and the fact that Tsuna doesn't know that his height is way lower than Enma's.
"He's my brother, Tsu-kun," Cozart enjoying himself from calling the brunet in such a cute way, ruffles the soft gravity hair of the brunet, he didn't expect it to be that soft.
"Don't touch Jyuudaime so casually!" Gokudera finally regained his senses. Gokudera stopped himself from bombing the look-a-like of Enma to pulp when he felt a hand resting on his, and a caramel orbs pleading him to stop.
"You people should know by now that public affection is definitely against the rule, and your tardiness will not be tolerated either, if you don't want to die, go to your respective rooms!" Alaude finally snapped, they all run. Well, Tsuna just walks his slow pace, and walks side with Alaude.
"Alaude-san, thank you," and though he doesn't normally kiss people in the cheeks, since he's a guy and all, he did today. Tsuna bowed to the skylark, and made a marathon to his room, leaving a stunned skylark. Alaude smirks to himself, 'That small animal sure is interesting.'
The rest of the day had been boring; Tsuna's teacher keeps making him to make an embarrassment of himself but failed miserably. Giotto's friends, Yamamoto, Gokudera, Enma, and even Hibari ate lunch together with him for the reason he doesn't know why. He also noticed that everyone around him are clingy, as if children begging for candies. He didn't mind the gestures, but the attention he has been receiving is not really helping him. And then the information about him, joining student council as guards or patrollers to each year in high school to form lines and stuff during their way to their destination that hasn't been decided yet for fieldtrip. He felt a strange horror feeling inside his chest, but ignored it.
Now they are all heading to the meeting for each school. The schools where heated rivalry can be seen and Namimori President as the peacemaker. Hibari is the Chairman of Discipline Committee but Dino Cavallone is the Student Body President of the student council so the blond is still a superior over him. Hibari actually threatened the blond to fire temporarily his subordinates and let Tsuna's gang as a compensation for letting them enroll quickly without mess.
"Tsu-chan, we're just going to stand there, so relax," Giotto keeps noticing the paling knuckles of his brother's; he knew why the other feels nervous. Tsuna doesn't like attention, and being with crowds makes him want to crawl under his bed. Although Tsuna is getting used to the presence of Giotto's friends, Enma, Gokudera, Yamamoto, and even the Hibari brothers, he's still not used to anyone rather than them. Tsuna just nodded numbly at his brother. Giotto and Tsuna are late because they were held back by Aoi-sensei to do some project that they failed to finish.
"Here we are," Giotto whispers at his brother. Giotto wanted to bang his head and jumped off Mt. Fuji for having thoughts again on Tsuna, and mentally questioning his gender. He shook his head, and thinks of positive thoughts to ignore his desire to ram on Tsuna's body, and the thought of his own gender.
Tsuna and Giotto went inside as quiet as possible, and made their way towards their friends. They both felt relief that they made it in time before the presidents of each school arrive, and the thoughts of having Hibari's rampage because of their lateness. Tsuna just stands next to his brother, while Giotto intertwines his hands to his, enjoying the heat that he is receiving from his little brother. G, Asari, Knuckle, Lampo, Cozart, Yamamoto, Enma, Gokudera, Daemon, Alaude, and Hibari want to throw Giotto off the window, lucky for them they are on the fifth floor, but unluckily for them, Tsuna didn't show any resistance towards his brother much to their dismay. Then the presidents arrive.
There stood a blond with tattoos on his arms, the other with white hair and purple almond eyes, and a blue-haired shaped like a pineapple with heterochromatic eyes. Tsuna wanted to remember who the blue-haired pineapple resembles like, but quickly shoved it off as now Tsuna remembering all about the girl he helped before in the Namimori Park. 'What's her name again, Chrome?'
Chrome spots the brunet whom she'd been longing to see. She wants the brunet to meet her nii-sama and be her nii-sama's interest, and someone who can take care of her nii-sama. Daemon is her brother too, but that brother of hers is always away so they're not really that close. Anyway, Chrome walks up to the brunet, startling him for a second, but she receives a small yet soft smile.
Mukuro taking notice on how Chrome left his side just to see the brunet with spiky hair, noting to himself that that the stranger was the one who wanted to take his beloved Chrome to him. Before he can move, a small smile appears to the brunet's face, making him freeze on his spot. The small yet soft smile that was directed to his sister was enchanting him to a deep down forest with only beautiful butterflies flying around. Mukuro felt a tug on his shirt, much to his annoyance to see a grinning marshmallow. He really hates this white-haired man, and wanting only one thing for him to die. Be burn to death, poison to death, ran by a truck to death, or simply jumps to death. He couldn't care less about this bum, but the giddiness covering the white-haired man saying that he caught interest which is rare for the sadistic teen, so Mukuro got curious and asks,
"Oya, oya. What is it?" The white-haired man answered still eyeing on the brunet in front of him,
"Don't you think he's interesting?"
"Byaku-chin, what is interesting about weak creatures?"
"Muku-chan, you'll see," Byakuran finished.
A/N: I'll make the next chapter as fast as possible, it just that my schedule for this month is tight. So yeah, bear with me. Hehe, anyway. Thank you! :D
