"Kyuki-chan, are you ready to go home?"

You looked up and smiled cheerfully at the brunette.
"Let's go, Tsuna-kun!"

Sure, living next door to Tsuna was rather strange (what with the strange bombing sounds and mysterious pink smoke) but at least it was never boring.

You swung an arm around the brunette's neck, not noticing the look of immediate displeasure on a certain silver-haired male.

"Oi! What do you think you're doing, getting so close to Tenth like that?" Gokudera demanded.

"Don't talk like you've known him longer, we've been friends since we were little!" you snapped back.

You were so busy arguing on the way home that you forgot the most important thing you should always have in your school years.

"Oh shit!"

"What is it, Kyuki-chan?" Tsuna asked worriedly. You looked at him, then back in the direction of school.

"......... I forgot my bag..." you mumbled.

Gokudera snickered.

"Only you would be so idiotic to have forgotten something like that." You scowled.

"Oh, shut up, asshole! It's all because of you!"

Tsuna interrupted the fuming male before he could snap back. "Don't worry, I'm sure you don't need it today, Kyuki-chan. We don't have much homework."

You shook your head.

"No, I need it today! It has my cell phone, my wallet, everything! I'm going back."

With that declared, you sprinted back towards the school, not bothering to look back.

If you had, you would have caught Gokudera watching you with something like worry in his eyes.

[*][*][*]

The lights were shut off and silence filled the building, causing darkness and your light footsteps to echo everywhere.

Even the smallest shadow creeped you out, but you refused to turn back now. Not when you were so close!

"Stupid Gokudera, making me forget about it..."

An irritated voice cut through the air.

"Who's stupid now?"

And that pretty much scared the living daylights out of you.
