Okay so I really don't like how this one went. I'll probably rewrite it at some later date. Ugh. See, I knew where I was going, then after I almost finished it I didn't work on it for a few days and the ending just wasn't certain anymore. I don't like posting this as is, but I will probably fix it later. On a side note-this is supposed to be written as a friendship relationship, but feel free to take it as girls love if you want. errr...please review and Thanks?

It's kinda funny, I mean really? That sweet, sweet girl?

You frowned from your place next to Chrome in the Kokuyo land hide out.

"Chrome, you really have to stand up for yourself more."

"N-nani?" You sighed again.

"You have got to stop letting these boys push you around so much, I mean seriously, they just go too far."

"A-ano…i-it's fine. I-it's just their way of…"

"Don't give me that Chrome." She flinched unintentionally.

"Ah, s-sorry…"

"Nooo~ that's not what I mean!"

"hunh?" She looked up at you questionably. You sighed and proceeded to explain.

"Look, I know that it's not all bad, and I also know that some of their standoffishness is just them showing affection for you." She blushed a little at this comment. "But, I also know that this can go too far sometimes, and when it comes down to it I want to know that you'll be able to take care of yourself even when I'm not around. And no, I'm not planning on leaving you," you answered with a smile at her worried, shocked expression wrapping a friendly arm around her shoulders, "It's just that sometimes I'll be at school, or shopping, or doing something else and not be around to protect you at that time. I want to be sure that you take care of yourself with Chikusa and Ken as well as anyone that might want to harass you on the streets."

"But….why…?"

"Why would someone want to harass you?" you couldn't help but raise an incredulous eyebrow to this. "Because you're an amazing delectable cutie in case you hadn't noticed."

Chrome flushed at this but continued on anyways. "No, I mean…why do you care?" The last part came out a whisper, but you caught it easy enough and scowled.

"Why? Because your friend of course! And I'm worried about you!" She blinked up at you with surprise. "I want to make sure your capable of putting those guys in their place and being able to take care of yourself when it comes down to it and not let them mow you over. You're not weak Chrome." Her visible eye widened although you didn't see it.

"You're a strong girl and I know you are. You just need the courage and self-confidence to put yourself out there and lay down the law and I don't blame you, it can be a scary thing to do."

You turned to grin at her.

"I know you've got the power to take care of yourself. I just want to make sure that you're actually confident enough to do it."

Chrome was just looking up at you with shocked awe.

"So how about we go get some ice cream?"

"a-ah s-sure" Chrome stammered again, but this time from being caught off guard. How did you always manage to transcend subjects like that anyways?

With in a second you had scooped up her hand and pulled her to her feet dragging her along back into town.

"Thanks…[Name]-san" you heard her whisper behind you and just grinned in your reply.

"C'mon! I'm hungry and I'm paying!"

…

…

…

It was a few days after that you were walking towards Kokuyo Land carrying bags full of groceries and grinning to yourself. You rather doubted that pep talk you'd given Chrome had worked at all yet, but at the very least you had assumed it was your duty to make sure she ate at least one decent meal a week instead of all the prepackaged junk the boys usually…acquired. You couldn't be sure if 'bought' was the right word to be used here.

BOOM!

A rush pillar of what you recognized to be Mukuro and Chrome's 'hellfire' illusion blasted out of the roof of Kokuyo Land emanating a shock wave that blew your hair back and nearly knocked you off your feet.

"What the-"

Suddenly you saw Ken go shooting across an open space out of the building followed by a furious trident wielding Chrome right on his heels.

You couldn't help but stand there and blink. After all, just how were you supposed to react to seeing something like that? It was around then that you noticed Chikusa's presence next to you, his usually straight forwards complexion had messed hair on his left and a soot covered cheek.

"…Just what did you do to her?" His voice was still fairly monotone though a faint hesitancy and seeming fear had entered it.

"I...just gave her a little talk…oh, Chrome…"

Chikusa glanced over to see tears running down your cheeks. He blinked in surprise. Could you actually be feeling regret for doing this to Chrome?

"I'm so proud"

Chikusa promptly fell over. 'Eh?'

You were smiling deliriously as tears of joy ran down your face.

"You actually listened to what I said oh you wonderful girl you."

'What the hell is wrong with this girl?'

And hence- a solemn oath was sworn between quite a few boys, Vongola and otherwise, to N.E.V.E.R. get on your or Chrome's bad side ever again.

But mostly yours.

Oh, that and you took a stuttering and embarrassed Chrome out to an actual restaurant for dinner to celebrate. Apparently she hadn't been planning on letting you see that.

Omake/extended ending:

…now if only we had know [Name] was capable of this earlier Mukuro contemplated eyeing the toasty Ken and mussed Chikusa.

Ken was also sporting several bruises and other marks from when you had decided to join in the fight as well...aka land a few hits yourself after Chrome had already won.

Now if there was only way to turn that sort energy and skill against the mafia…
