So, I'm also going to do 80OC in this one as well. Final pairing will still be 18OC though. Cause Yama-chan's mine! -is shot by other Yama fangirls-

This chapter turned out longer than I expected. Hope you enjoy!

Chapter 5: New School, New Troubles

"Hello!"

"Aya…-_-+"

"Is it just me or do you appear to be in a mad mood? Did Hibari do something to you? Tell me about it and I'll help you out!"

"What did he do to me? What about what did you do to me!? You gave him my information so that he can make my life even more worse than it already is!?"

"Have some pity on your best friend won't you? He called me and said that if I didn't provide him with information he'll bite me to death and come over to smash the bakery!"

"How would he know where you live?"

"The guy has a lot of power in this town! He can easily find me!"

"I don't believe this…So, now I have to be near him twenty-four hours a day every single day?"

"Hey, look on the bright side. At least he's hotter than the delinquents at our school."

"Was that suppose to make me feel better!?"

"It was worth a try."

"T_T"

"Anyways, keep me updated as always and be sure to find some free time to drop by and visit okay? Night!"

Miki resisted the urge to throw the phone against the wall. This was it. Her life was over. She was definitely not going to complete junior high…

Miki slammed her hands on the alarm clock beside her bed and got up. Rubbing her still sleepy eyes, she made her way to the bathroom. Hibari made her get up extra early so that she could help him with his work at school. Not only was she a slave to him at home, but now also at school. Was he going to make her skip classes in order to do work for him too? She was so going to fail her second year of middle school if that was the case.

Another realization came to her. She totally forgot that Yamamoto also attended Namimori High. It seemed that Tsuna and Gokudera also went to school there. At least she'll have people that she knew already there.

Then another thought popped up in her mind. If those three were there, then does that mean that the baby name Reborn also hung around there? Miki gulped. Her leg still hurts from yesterday's incident and she didn't want to experience anything like that again. She really wondered who Reborn really was. What kind of one year old baby walks around with real weapons? Furthermore, he doesn't even talks like a baby! Wait, can one year old babies even talk?

The more Miki thought about things, the more confused she ended up. So, she decided to drop the subject for now. The truth will eventually reveal itself sooner or later anyways right?

When Miki finished changing into her new Namimori school uniform and gathering her things, she made her way downstairs. Placing her bag onto a chair at the dinner table, she started to make breakfast.

Hibari came downstairs a few minutes later…with a yellow ball of fluff on his head? Miki looked closer and realized that it was actually a little yellow bird. She nearly burst out laughing. Hibari and a cute little bird? Something just didn't seem to fit.

She watched as Hibari placed a handful of seeds on the table and let the bird down to peck at them while he took a sip of his miso soup. Sensing that he was being watched, Hibari glared at Miki.

"What are you looking at?"

"Cute bird!"

"…"

"I never knew that you had a bird."

"…"

"Does it have a name?"

"…"

"^^;;"

"-_-+"

"T^T"

Did he not get a good night sleep last night or what? Then again, Hibari always looked grumpy. Miki cut off the failed conversation before Hibari got into an even worse mood and went back to eating her breakfast.

Not many people were at school when Hibari and Miki arrived. There was still around an hour before class started and at least another thirty minutes before the other students start to pour into campus. The two made their way down the hallways and into the guestroom.

After getting settled in, Hibari got her immediately to work.

"Put these folders in alphabetical order in the cabinet," Hibari ordered, shoving a stack of folders towards her.

Miki blinked. "How?" There weren't any tags are anything on the folders, so how would she know which ones to put first?

"Use your brain," Hibari simply answered as he himself got indulged in his own paper work. "That is, if you have one. Or is it too small to be of any use?"

If the guy in front of her wasn't Hibari Kyouya, Miki swore that the stack of folders and its contents would now be lying in a messed on the floor, but because it was Hibari Kyouya, Miki only bit her bottom lip in frustration and started going through the folder while mumbling curses to Hibari underneath her breath.

Hibari glanced up from his work to look at the frustrated girl who supposedly was muttering curses to him as she was grabbing folders and opening them for some clues in how to arrange them. Of course he had no idea what she was saying, but he swore that he at least heard his name being uttered.

"Itai!" Miki yelled, rubbing the side of her head when she felt something painfully hit her head. She picked up what landed on the floor next to her. A notebook? She gazed at Hibari and found him engrossed in his work as if nothing ever happened. She was about to throw the notebook aside, but decided to open it up instead. Her eyes widened in surprise as she flipped through the pages. There were notes on how to organize and do different jobs in the Disciplinary Committee. Miki looked at the notebook and then back at Hibari. Was he being nice? No way! She thought that the word nice was never in his dictionary in the first place.

As if Hibari read her thoughts, he said without looking up from his work, "Don't get me wrong. I didn't make those notes. Furthermore, I want the work done quickly and it will never happen having someone like you doing it."

Scratch that. He wasn't nice. He did that to just mock her. Stupid Hibari…

"Itai! Now what!?" This time a heavier book went flying across the table.

"Work and stop insulting me or else I'll really bite you to death."

Miki was now pretty certain that Hibari had telepathy.

More than half an hour past since Hibari and Miki arrived at the school and by now chatting can be heard throughout the hallways and students started making their way around the school. This includes Tsuna, Yamamoto and Gokudera.

"Yamamoto, how was Miki yesterday? Was she okay?" Tsuna questioned his rain guardian. He was worried about the condition of their new friend. He still couldn't believe that Reborn actually had a real gun with real bullets in it and used it against someone who had no connection with the mafia. Then again, didn't he use a tank (Reborn's idea of a baseball pitcher) with explosive balls against Yamamoto back then as well?

"She's fine. The doctor said that her wound wasn't deep," Yamamoto replied. "We should visit her sometime!" he added.

"Yeah, we should…" Tsuna's smile quickly faded however when it came to him that Miki was staying at Hibari's place. "Will Hibari-san allow us to go in though?"

"If he doesn't we can always just break in," Gokudera merely suggested, but was serious of doing it if needed.

"We can't do that!" Tsuna quickly said. Of course they couldn't. It was Hibari's house after all. Hibari would definitely bite them to death. Tsuna didn't even want to imagine what condition they'll be in once Hibari was done with them.

"I'm sure Hibari will be okay with it," Yamamoto stated. "Hey, we might even see her around."

The bell rang for class to start and all of the students got into their seats. The remaining that were not yet inside the classroom, rapidly made their way to class. Once the second bell rang, the teacher of Tsuna's class entered the doorway with someone following him.

Upon seeing who the person was, Tsuna's mouth dropped open in disbelief, Gokerdera raised an eyebrow in surprise and Yamamoto had a big grin on his face.

"Class, we have a new student joining us," the teacher announced to the class before nodding towards the new student.

"I'm Kimura Miki. Nice to meet you all," Miki said nervously, bowing down. She never really liked standing up in front of people, especially in front of complete strangers. When she raised her head back up, her eyes widen in shock as she spotted three familiar faces in the classroom. Tsuna, Gokudera and Yamamoto were also in the same class?

"There's an empty seat beside Yamamoto. You can sit there," the teacher told Miki, after telling the class to be nice to her and to help her find her way around the school.

"I didn't expect you to come here," Yamamoto laughed. When he said that they might see her soon, he certainly wasn't expecting it to be this soon.

Miki smiled. "Err...I guess that you'll have to thank Hibari for it." Yeah right. Like there's anything to thank him for…

She turned her head and saw Tsuna giving her a small smile and Gokudera giving her a…strange look? Now that she thought about it. Gokudera seemed kind of scary…Not like Hibari scary, but just…Gokudera scary…If that made any sense. At least he didn't have the same black evil aura around him like Hibari does.

"Yamamoto, you know her?" the teacher suddenly asked.

"Yes sir."

"That's good. Then I'll leave it up to you to show Kimura around the school and make sure she knows where she's going."

"Yes sir," Yamamoto said again, accepting the teacher's order.

"Let's begin the lesson then," the teacher said, picking up a textbook. "Turn to page seventy-eight in your math book."

By the time everyone knew it, the bell rang, dismissing the students for lunch. Miki went ahead with Tsuna and the others to the school roof. While they were getting their lunch out, a girl with short orange hair approached them.

"Can I sit with you guys today?" she asked.

"Kyoko-chan!" Tsuna exclaimed. "Y-yes, of course!" he quickly said.

Miki stared suspiciously at Tsuna. Tsuna seemed over excited at the appearance of the girl. Also, did she just see him blush slightly? It wasn't hard to guess that Tsuna probably had a crush on the girl name Kyoko.

"Hello, my name's Sasagawa Kyoko!" Kyoko introduced herself to Miki as she sat down next to her. "It's nice to meet you!"

"Kimura Miki, nice to meet you too," Miki responded.

"I didn't know that you were Tsuna-kun's friend. I never met you before."

"Well, we just met actually."

Kyoko smiled. "Well I hope that we can be good friends. If you have any questions you can ask me."

Miki smiled back. "Thanks!" Maybe my life here won't be so bad after all…At least there are nice people here.

The group ate and talked for a while. When everyone was done eating, Yamamoto suggested that he would show Miki around the school a bit before class started. So the group separated for that.

"That is the art classroom and down there is the library," Yamamoto explained as he led Miki down the hallway.

The library…

Miki thought back a few days ago to the day when she first came here. Yamamoto led her past the library to go to the guestroom and it was when she heard it. The Namimori school anthem was ringing from Hibari's cell phone. There was no way she would forget that day. It completely warped her normal daily life for good. Now she was passing the hallways as a student at this school. She still couldn't believe all that had happened.

"Hey, Yamamoto, can we talk about the upcoming game?" a few male students came rushing over to the tall teen.

"Eh? Sure!" Yamamoto replied. "Sorry, hang on a minute okay?" he turned to Miki.

"Oh, it's fine," Miki said. "I'm going to the bathroom first then."

"Okay then. I'll wait here."

Miki nodded to Yamamoto and headed off, leaving him to talk to his teammates. Yamamoto seemed to be someone who the other team members admire. She wondered if he was the team captain or something.

"Hey, you," a voice called out to Miki as she left the bathroom.

Miki turned around to see a group of four to five girls standing off to her side. Something told her that they weren't just here to say hello to the new student.

"Yes?" she asked apprehensively, looking from one girl to the next.

"Let's cut the chase here. What are you to Yamamoto and Gokudera?" one of the girls stepped forward and asked.

"They're…my friends…?" Miki didn't like where things were going.

"Really? You guys look close," another girl remarked. "Even Yamamoto went through all the trouble in showing you around the school."

"Eh? Hang on a second," Miki said waving her hands in front of her. "I just met them yesterday! They're the only people that I know here at this school, so maybe that's why I seem so close to them. Also, it was the teacher who asked Yamamoto to show me around the school!"

Oh great…What have I gotten myself into? These are Yamamoto's and Gokudera's fan girls aren't they? I was hoping for a good first day of school, or at least one without too much trouble, but now I have to face these crazy girls!?

"So you knew them before this?" One of the girls stepped forward. The others followed.

Miki found her self stepping backwards until her back hit the wall behind her. It was her first day at school and she already found trouble. If there was only one person, she could get by, but there were five. She can't deal with them all. What if they got violent? Darn it…This wasn't good.

"Crowding in the hallway…I'm going to bite you all to death."

"Hibari!" Miki exclaimed, seeing the Head of the Disciplinary Committee making his way towards her and the other girls. For the first time since she met him, she was actually glad that he was around.

Seeing Hibari approaching, all of the girls rapidly dispersed.

"Um…thank you," Miki approached Hibari. She couldn't believe that he had helped her back there.

"I wasn't trying to help you. They were being an eyesore," Hibari coldly said.

Fine, I take back my thanks Nice guy…I should have known. Someone like you would never step out of your comfort zone to help someone in need.

"Hey, Miki, are you alright?" Yamamoto appeared from around the corner. "You were gone for quite a while, so I thought I'd come checking up on you…Oh, I see Hibari's also here."

"Yamamoto Takeshi, do you know what will happen if you disturb the peace in this school?" Hibari said, glaring at Yamamoto with a raised tonfa.

"Eh!? H-Hang on a second! Um…Did I do something?" Yamamoto bore an expression of utter confusion. He had no idea why Hibari was now threatening him.

Miki's mouth dropped open. He was mad at the girls and so decided to beat Yamamoto up because a couple of them were his fan girls!?

"M-Matte! Yamamoto didn't do anything wrong!" Miki tried to calm Hibari down.

Hibari glared at her. "Do you want me to bite you to death as well?"

"=[]=!!" Miki didn't know what to say next. She knew that one more word out of her and she was as good as dead.

"Whoa, calm down Hibari. We can talk this through right?" Yamamoto stepped in the middle of the two, trying to ease the atmosphere himself with a little smile, though he doubt that he would succeed.

He didn't succeed. Hibari took one glance at Yamamoto and swung his tonfa at the poor teen. Luckily Yamamoto was able to duck down fast enough to avoid having his head smashed to bits.

"Haha. I guess that we'll just have to do this the hard way," Yamamoto chuckled nervously. The only problem was that he didn't have his Shigure Kintoki with him.

"Yamete!" Miki yelled at the two boys. She didn't want things to worsen. However it seemed that they weren't going to listen to her. What should she do?

"Ciaosu Hibari, Yamamoto, Miki" a high child-like voice spoke up.

All three sets of eyes shifted their gaze toward the speaker.

"Reborn!"

"Hey, little guy!"

"Oh, it's you, baby."

Reborn smiled. "The bell is about to ring now. Why don't you guys get to class?"

"Haha. Yeah, we really should get going!" Yamamoto laughed. "Let's go Miki!" he said, walking off.

Miki took one last look at Reborn and mouthed a thank you to him before dashing after Yamamoto. She couldn't believe it though. Everyone calmed down right away at the baby's appearance. Yamamoto was still understandable, but Hibari also? From what she knew, Hibari wasn't the type of person who'd listen to other people easily, yet he stopped for Reborn? Amazing. Who really was that baby?

After school, Miki said goodbye to Tsuna and the others and made her way to the guestroom where Hibari was. Entering the room, she saw Hibari with a cup of coffee in his hands and a folder of work on his lap.

"Um…" Miki didn't know what to say. Was he still mad at her for earlier?

Hibari didn't look up from his work. He just nodded towards a stack of papers.

The rest of the time was spent in silence doing work. Besides a couple of the other Disciplinary Committee members coming in and out of the room for things and to report on things to Hibari, there was no one else around. Before long it was only her and Hibari left in the school.

As Miki was working, she glanced at the window and realized that it was raining. Just another problem to add to her already troublesome day… She didn't bring an umbrella. She and Hibari were probably going to be stuck here until the raining got better.

It was the opposite though. The raining got heavier. Miki looked at the clock. It was already six. She had already finished the work that Hibari assigned her and was working on her homework. She was also starting to get hungry.

Suddenly Hibari stood up. "Let's go."

"But, it's still raining."

"It's probably going to rain all night. Or do you want to stay here for the night?"

The guestroom was cozy, but she didn't want to stay at school at night with Hibari. Furthermore, there wasn't anything that can be dinner.

Gathering their things, the two made their way down the dark hallways and to the school front door. Miki stare out into the rain as she changed her shoes. She didn't want to go out there and get all wet. She might even catch a cold.

"What's wrong?" Hibari turned to asked Miki who was frowning as she just sat there.

"I…just don't want to go out there."

"…"

"Eh!?" Miki exclaimed as Hibari tossed his school jacket to her. She looked at the jacket and then back at Hibari.

"Use it," he simply said, walking out into the pouring rain.

Miki sat there not believing what Hibari just did. She stared at his back for a while before allowing a smile to appear on her face. She got up and followed him.

Hibari's jacket didn't completely shield her from the rain, but it did helped. Miki was glad when they finally reached the house. She lowered Hibari's now soaking wet jacket that she used as an umbrella when they came underneath the roof of the porch.

"Key," Hibari said, reaching out his hand.

Miki rummaged through her bag for the house key. Her face suddenly became pale. No way! This can't be happening! Please tell this isn't happening!

Hibari frowned. "What's wrong?" His frown deepened when he didn't receive an answer. "Don't tell me…"

"Hehe…^^;;"

Hibari swore under his breath as he stomped down the porch and back into the rain.

Miki watched as Hibari disappeared outside the gate. She felt bad for having Hibari get back out into the rain. She couldn't believe that she forgot the house keys at school. She was pretty sure now that Hibari will never entrust her with the house keys again.

To give you guys a little heads up, the next chapter will be 18OC centric and the one after that (chapter 7) will be 80OC centric.

Poor Hibari! Having to go out into the pouring rain again! If it were me, I would be having a horrible cold the next day. *hint hint*
