"Are we gonna hide it from them, Kyoya? It has been 3 days since the party." Chrome asked as she sat down on his bed and watched him do some finishing touch on his tie.
"I suggest to keep it a secret."
"Eh? Then we can't be together in public. That'll be so sad then..."
"Why will you be so sad?" The skylark went to sit beside his dear girlfriend.
"Because...I'm not very good at keeping secrets. But I guess it won't be a bad idea."
"Don't spill anything. If you do I'll bite you to death." He whispered to her ear and put a hand on her right thigh. Her face was burning at the sudden contact.
"Kyoya! Like I'll let you do that to me!" The embarrassed illusionist almost shouted.
"Whatever. I'm willing to wait till the day I'm gonna marry you." It was such a very new and awkward atmosphere. And seeing Kyoya Hibari like that is such a priceless thing.
"W-we better go now Kyoya! And I'm not forgiving you for what you did!" She failed terribly as she tried to act scarier and threatening like him.
"I won't apologize."
"Why not hm?"
"Because I just said what i wanted to say, ever heard of freedom of speech?"
"Oh why do I have such a prideful boyfriend? I better run off to someone better." She scurried dramatically to the door.
"Oi where do you think you're going herbivore?" Kyoya said as she held Chrome's waist and held her up.
"Kyoya! Put me down."
"I don't want to."
"Ugh. What do you want then?"
"Looks like you really know me very well." He said as he spun her around to face him. "I want a kiss."
"You're acting so childish just because of that? Fine then mister." And she kissed him tenderly on the lips and put her arms around his neck. Being the great opportunist that he is, Kyoya didn't let her go and continued kissing her. Chrome tried to struggle for a minute but gave in after. Who wouldn't want to start a day with a kiss?
But just as they were kissing passionately each other, the door opened to reveal a white-haired bomber. And boy, his face has never been that flushed before.
"W-What the heck. You... You two? Are.. You two are REAL?" Seeing the white-haired tomato infront of them, they quickly broke out from each other like they're holding the sun.
"Ever heard of knocking, you herbivore? I'm gonna bite you to tiny little pieces, you heard me?" Exclaimed the blushing Kyoya.
"Gokudera! Oh great... What are we gonna do now Kyoya? You're plan is out." Sighed Chrome. Her face was burning red from the embarrassment.
"Calm down Hibari. I thought nobody was in here so I just barged in. Sorry though. Hey Chrome you just told me days ago that you aren't dating him. So was that just a scheme?"
"Well, at that time when we were talking I want, I mean we weren't-"
"Why are so concerned herbivore? Can't the two of us have any privacy? You should mind your own business!"
"Kyoya control yourself. Like I was saying Gokudera, we became an "item" at the party and that was some time after I talked to you." Chrome tried her best to control the situation in hand but what will you do if you have a furious Hibari and a confused Gokudera beside you? Yes, that is panic. But Chrome is the mist that's why she acted all so calmly here.
"You guys are so unpredictable." Gokudera muttered under his breathe.
"What business do you have with us, or in my room to be specific?" Deadly glares were sent to Gokudera though the silver-haired was acting so composed.
"Well I just want to check if Uri ran here. He's missing again, you see." He asked as he rubbed his temple and looked away.
"We haven't seen any feline around here. Have you checked in the garden? He must be hiding there." Chrome replied softly still trying to calm the skylark on her side.
"Oh is that so? Thanks for that Chrome and sorry for intruding." And then Gokudera left at once.
"What are we going to do now?" Chrome asked as she face palm herself.
"Stick to the plan. He's the only one who knows."
"Wait, we forgot to tell him that!" Chrome was about to turn the knob but was surprised when it moved itself and the door moved. Gokudera was the one behind it.
"I forgot to tell you something. Juudaime is already waiting at the dining table. You don't wanna be late."
"Wait Gokudera! Uhmmm the thing about me and Kyoya, can you...please keep it as a secret?" She pleads with puppy eye.
"Don't you dare spill anything herbivore." Menacing glare was shot to the silver-haired.
"Tch. Gossiping is not worth my time." And he left.
Chrome sighed in relief.
"Kyoya let's go now." The couple went out of Kyoya's bedroom just in time to see Mukuro knocking on the room beside his which is Chrome's room. And they have never seen a surprised Mukuro like that.
"Chrome what did you do in Hibari's room?" The male illusionist immediately narrowed his widened eyes and glared at the man beside Chrome.
"I just gave him some documents Mukuro-sama." The purple-haired profesionally acted cool without any hint of panic. Afterall, Mukuro is the last person she wants to know about her relationship with Kyoya.
"Really? Did the skylark do anything to you my dearest Chrome?" He warily eyed Kyoya who returned the exact glare the male illusionist was throwing at him.
"I assure you that nothing happened. Would you like to join us downstairs? Tsuna is already waiting for us." She saw the look both men with her were giving so she held their arms and dragged them to the dining hall.
"Good morning Chrome-chan, Mukuro and Hibari-san." Tsuna greeted with a warm smile.
Chrome was the only one who gave attention to him though it wasn't a surprise to anyone.
"Looks like you have two escorts with you again Chrome." Yamamoto said with his usual smile. Chrome gave a small laugh as reply.
"Rokudo, Hibari, why are your faces like that? It's a beautiful morning to the extreme!"
"Kufufufu, I suggest you to just shut your mouth Ryohei Sasagawa." Mukuro said as he started eating his breakfast.
Gokudera then entered the hall muttering some words like stupid cat.
"Did you had a bad morning Gokudera-san?"
"Ah kind of Juudaime. Uri is missing again. "The silver-haired scowled.
"He might be in the rooftop or the garden. Have you tried searching there?" Yamamoto suggested. Gokudera, on the other hand looks terribly pissed.
"I won't search for that stupid cat any longer! If he wants to come back then he'll come to me."
"What if he doesn't come back? You know, because he's tired of Stupidera's treatment and all." Lambo said casually as he put a spoonful of bacon on his mouth.
"You cow! You're hiding him. I'm pretty sure of it." Gokudera said as he stood up his chair and grabbed Lambo's collar.
"Woah calm down Gokudera!" Yamamoto tried to calm down the bomber.
"I am not hiding your cat Stupidera." Lambo said smoothly as if he doesn't care about Gokudera at all. However, the silver-haired bomber wasn't convinced. He let go of the cow and went away.
"Gokudera-san where are you going?" Tsuna stood up and raised his voice.
"To that cow's room."
And the last thing they heard was the slamming of the door. Tsuna sighed again and continued eating. He knew nothing good wil happen if he'll go after his storm guardian.
"So Hibari, will you tell us what documents did Chrome bring to your bedroom earlier?" Mukuro muttered after chewing his food. Hibari stopped his movements for five seconds then replied, "The last time I checked, you weren't Chrome's manager."
"Oh yes exactly, but I'm just curious. It won't hurt to tell me, right Chrome?" This time, Mukuro faced Chrome with a wonderful smile.
"Really, it is none of concern Mukuro-sama. It's not something very important. Besides it is—"
"Very confidential," Hibari continued for her. He looked at Mukuro with glinting gray eyes.
"Yes, yes it is very, very confidential." The smile she gave was so angelic it made Mukuro and Hibari stare at her for minutes.
"Is there something on my face?" Chrome blinked twice.
"Uh no, my dear Chrome, your face is still as beautiful as ever." Mukuro was like hypnotized by the way her gaze met his. Hibari, on the other hand, wasn't very happy with the current situation.
"Oi, Rokudo, why do you want to know what documents she gave to me so badly?" Mukuro's calm face slowly disappeared as he looked at the man on the other side of Chrome.
"And that is, none of your business too Hibari." Mukuro said with a slight teasing smirk plastered on his mouth.
"Is that so? So should I begin guessing then?" Kyoya continued eating without glancing in Mukuro's direction.
"Kufufufu… You wanna play some childish games? I won't stop you." The male illusionist chuckled before feeding himself.
"You're asking because you're jealous of me," Hibari muttered loudly that everyone was suddenly listening to him. "And because you love Chrome."
Chrome looked at Kyoya straightaway with a huge eye. "Kyoya, what are you saying? That's not true. Mukuro-sa—"
"And so what if that's true?" Everyone stopped their movements when they heard Mukuro's statement. It was as if lightning stroked the entire room. Chrome was the most surprised one, though. She looked at Mukuro then to Hibari and back to Mukuro.
"I-I don't understand. Mukuro-sama what do you mean by that?" Mukuro can see the confusion in her eyes.
"My dear Chrome, you know it only means one thing. Please, I don't want to say it out loud." His voice was caressing and smooth.
"You mean I'm the girl you were talking about at the party?" Then she remembered everything he told her that night.
"I am in love with someone so dense that she really never feels my love for her."
"Yes, you're the woman I was referring to."
"You we're just very dense to notice." Hibari said continuing to eat his food. Everyone else recovered too from the sudden confession and continued eating.
"Mukuro-sama, I am so sorry." She said with eyes that were comforting even though he doesn't know why he needs comfort.
"You don't have to be sorry, my dear. You did nothing wrong." Mukuro glanced at Hibari for a second then continued, "I know you're still shocked Nagi, that's why I won't demand for an answer right now. I will wait for you."
Chrome was feeling quite nervous. Mukuro still doesn't know that Hibari and Chrome are dating, if you can call it that. Both of them agreed to keep their relationship a secret but now that Mukuro confessed to her, she thought that he has the right to know. If she doesn't tell him soon, her ex-master will think that he still has a chance on her. And of course, that will hurt him, first because Chrome never keeps a secret from him and second, because it'll look like he gave him false hope. Being the most loyal servant of Mukuro, she'll never want him to be hurt.
"No, Mukuro-sama, I'm sorry. The fact is I—"Then, as if having a grand entrance was mainstream, Hayato Gokudera kicked the door opened carrying a red-eyed feline with two hands.
"That stupid cow hid Uri in his room. You're gonna regret this one. Do you know how hard it is to catch her?" He was a perfect mess. His suit was filled with scratches and his hair was ruffled in a very messy way. The green-eyed bomber was glaring at a certain boy in a cow suit.
"Uh-oh.." Lambo muttered then went for a run to the kitchen, a furious Gokudera following behind him. Tsuna sighed.
"I'm gonna expect a very unique day ahead." Tsuna said as he ate.
"My, my, this day really had a blasting start." Yamamoto just laughed off.
"I'm expecting a very extreme day!" Shouted Ryohei and ate faster.
Chrome confused on what she was going to say, just continued eating like the rest of her family. Hibari glanced at her way and saw something in her eyes. She was worried.
After breakfast, Chrome went directly to her office and avoided anyone. She was that worried of Mukuro. And because thinking about all of these was just enough to make her go insane, she decided to talk to Kyoya.
"I think I should tell Mukuro-sama about our relationship, Kyoya." She said as se went inside his office. The smell of coffee was filling the room.
"I don't see why you should do that." Kyoya didn't even manage to look at her as she slid down the black leather couch.
"I don't want to give him false hope." Kyoya continued typing while Chrome stared at him, waiting for his reaction.
"Don't you wanna see him try to win you?" She was rather surprised with his reply. He sounded amused.
"What? What do you mean Kyoya?"
"I want to see how that pineapple herbivore will court a woman." He was still typing but glanced at Chrome for about three times already.
"So you just wanna have fun while seeing him courts me? That's ridiculous."
"Why what's wrong with that?"
"You won't understand even if I'll tell because you don't care about him."
"That's right."
"So will it be okay if I tell him now?" Finally he stopped typing, and then he suddenly stood up and sat down on the opposite couch.
"Come here." He said with soothing voice. Chrome blinked twice before obeying his command. As she sat beside him, Kyoya took hold of her legs and carried her on his lap. His other hand was on her waist, pushing her closer to him until their faces were merely inches from each other.
"Kyoya what are you doing?" She flushed immediately because of the closeness of their faces.
"I'm placing a mark on my property." Then he lunged forward to capture her lips. Chrome was quite surprised at first but gave in after a few seconds. The kiss was very passionate and lustful. As Chrome held Kyoya's head and ruffled his raven hair, Kyoya pulled Chrome closer and closer to her, feeling her heartbeat turn faster, and getting the heat of her body through the thin fabric of her blouse. Then he went for her neck, kissing and licking her lusciously. When he reached the part below her ear, she felt him suck in her skin and his tongue playing with it. Now she knew what he meant about marking his property. When she came back to her senses, Kyoya's lips were already on her collarbone, specifically, on the strap of her bra. He was pushing it away using his lips and his other hand was slowly moving upward her leg. His other hand was unbuttoning her blouse one at a time. They were both feeling hot at the moment even if the AC was in low temp. Then, to their utmost surprise, the door opened revealing an indigo-haired male illusionist.
"What the hell."
Kyoya and Chrome quickly stopped their movements and stared at Mukuro's flustered face.
"Mukuro-sama…" She felt her face burn.
"Does no one know how to knock in this mansion?" Kyoya scowled. He was disturbed at a very unlikely time.
"What… Chrome.. you and Hibari..?" All of this came too early for any of them.
"Mukuro-sama, I can explain."
"You don't have to explain yourself, Chrome." Then Kyoya shoved some of her hair from the side to reveal a hickey. Mukuro stiffened while Chrome just looked down because of too much embarrassment.
"Since when?" Mukuro asked lightly, still not believing all of these.
"Since the party."
"But Chrome you said you were still thinking about it. How did this happened?"
"Well, I got many advices and I thought about it then realization hit me. I'm sorry Mukuro-sama." She was still blushing hard.
"So that's why you were apologizing to me." Mukuro stepped backwards until his back was on the door. Then he chuckled lightly.
"I should've just gave up a long time before." A sad smile appeared on his lips.
"I didn't mean to hurt you Mukuro-sama." She stood up and went to him with an eye innocent as a baby's.
"It's alright Chrome. You can't choose who you'll love after all." Before he can turn around, Chrome got a hold of his arm and said, "I won't change." A small smile plastered on her face. Mukuro smiled as reply then went out.
"God, I feel so mean!" Chrome exclaimed as she lay down the couch.
"You did nothing wrong." Hibari went back to his table and started typing again.
"I should've told him before. I don't want to see him hurt, you know."
"Yeah, and you're telling that to your boyfriend."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"I'm very possessive and I don't like sharing."
"Huh?" She sat up to face him.
Kyoya sighed because of Chrome's slowness.
"I can be jealous and when that happens, that man will be very pitiful."
"Oh."
"That's why I gave you that mark on your neck. Because you are mine and mine alone."
"Yes I understand. Speaking of, I better hide this hickey from them."
Was that worth the wait? IDK. But it's quite long! Or is it? It has 3K in word count. Again, I am really really sorry for the year-long hiatus! I hope you'll forgive me. And let's not talk about updating, shall we? I don't wanna give and destroy hopes. But I am thinking about 3 or 4 one-shots. :) Heehee~
