A word from the Decima


Hey everyone! Yes, I'm still around. I know you're all looking forward to chapter 7, but I'm up my neck in distractions-college exams and my mother, just to name a few. I've also been working on a "Just Because I Can" sequel and a little something else for the holidays. Be sure to keep a look out for that, and I should be posting chapter 7 by the end of the month.

But just because I love all of you, here's a sneak peek:

"Don't even joke like that." I glared (pouted) at my brother as he smirked at me. "Learn to knock, Giotto-nii," I whined. I straightened my clothes then stood up from my bed.

"You're in no position to be bossing me around," he laughed. "Maybe you should thank me for switching chores with you."

"When do you ever ask for a 'thank you'," I mumbled, shaking my head. Don't know how going to the store could do that a person, but this is my Giotto-nii we're talking about.

"Since just now, little brother."

With a sigh and a slight smile, I walked over to him and ran my fingers through my messy chestnut locks. "Thank you for switching chores with me, Gio-nii." He's never asked for any thanks before, but I mentally shrugged it off as him just being the teasing older brother that he is.

"Aww, Tsuna-chi. I was more than happy to switch with you," he replied, his playful smirk unwavering. My cheeks flushed a bit as Giotto-nii tilted his head slightly, causing his gorgeous, blonde hair to sway. Once again, I'm so glad that my whole love-confession hadn't messed up our brotherly relationship. If anything, it made us closer.

I laughed softly and copied my brother's head movement while winking at him. "Is there any way I can repay you?" Immediately after those words left my mouth, I seriously wished I could've shoved them back in. I quickly closed my eyes, mentally face-palming myself for how dame I can be sometime, then clapped my hands together in front of my face in a "forgive me" motion. Of course, I was joking, but the way I could feel Giotto staring at me, I doubted he knew that. Can't have him getting any ideas, can we? "Ehehe, I was just kidding, ya know?"

There's your sneak peek, now stay tuned for the actually chapter. *waves*
