Disclaimer: i do not own KHR :(

Gokudera's POV

"Stupid women" he mumbled to himself while having a much needed smoke. He was currently propped up against the wall of Naminori High School waiting for his beloved tenth to come out.

He too had tried to endure through the day at his so-called school, but with his I.Q. it seemed less of a learning facility and more like a mental hospital. In the end (for obvious reasons) he ditched class and decided to have time to himself.

No harm done at first, but then Hayato found his mind wondering and everything went downhill from that moment on. The alone time he was currently having left him (unexplainably) thinking about the annoying women. This was the real reason he was "taking a drag" of his cigarette.

He absentmindedly pondered on what outrageous costumes she could be sporting today.

Probably some UFO or something... he chuckled to himself. With flashing lights and- he cut his own thoughts off when realization took over.

What are you thinking? His inner voice panicked. Is that cigarette damaging your brain! He scoffed out loud at the thought. Of course he was still sane (right?).

Hayato let out an exasperated sigh and with it a puff of smoke that temporarily clouded his vision. How could he (a walking stroke of genius) be puzzled by what sudden emotions he was feeling?

Pleasure, Amusement, and something he couldn't quite decipher, all came from none other than a normal (for the most part) high school girl. Was this even (mentally or physically, your choice) possible?

"Gokudera-san?" the voice was so loud and sudden that the person in question couldn't hold back a (embarrassing) shriek of surprise.

"Who the he-" he yelled but stopped midsentence as a small hand, that seemed to come out of the smoke itself, waved back and forth while gasping and coughing were heard in the background.

Ever so slowly, the smoke disappeared and all five of Hayato's senses were back on track.

"Stupid women!" he gasped in recognition.

"Haru" she corrected, "And please stop smoking or Haru might gag!"

Hayato blinked twice before blankly looking at the cause of Haru's distress, positioned in his hand.

"No."

It was Haru's turn to be surprised. "No, what do you mean no?" she wheezed, trying to sound fierce but was obviously flustered at Hayato's blunt reply. After all, she had said please.

For whatever reason, a small smirk came to the lips of the gray (silver!) headed bomber.

"Why should i say yes?" he questioned, truly pleased by his retort.

"Because Haru has to wait for Tsuna-kun here to" she stomped her foot to further her point, but unbeknownst to her a ticking time-bomb was about to be set off.

The little game Hayato was playing was gone with the wind and in its place came anger (like always) but this time it was different. A pang to his heart told him that this was a bit more than anger, but what?

"You don't have to wait for him, and besides, did he actually tell you to wait here?" he hissed, but before the stunned Haru could manage to say a word, he snapped again.

"I don't know if you've noticed Haru, but the tenth clearly likes-" he stopped as the deja vu set in. The time from yesterday when he'd lashed out at her. And also that look she gave him that stuck to him like a tattoo. The first time he regretted his actions.

Immediately he went quiet, feeling foolish for committing the same mistakes. He noticed that he wasn't the only one quiet, and sheepishly looked at the girl who made him feel oh-so- stupid. Her lips twitched.

"Are you jealous Gokudera?"

Hehe i left you all with a cliffy (feeling mischievous) before i go i want to point out the obvious if you didn't notice. Haru forgot to add "-san" to Goku-kuns name. She must be reeeeally mad lol. Anyways i hope you enjoyed it and please review for this o-so-dramatic couple XDDD!
